John Cockerill India reported a strong turnaround in FY2025, with revenue of 357 crores and PAT of 10 crores, recovering from a loss of 5 crores in FY2024. The order book surged to a record 11.9 billion rupees, up 74% YoY, driven by major wins from Tata Steel, JSW, and AMNS. The company highlighted five growth engines: India's steel boom, record order book, value services (30% of revenue, 40% margins), global consolidation including the proposed US acquisition by Dec 2026, and green technologies like JBD and Voltern. Management expects Q1-Q2 FY2026 to be subdued due to project accounting, with revenue inflection from Q3. A dividend has been reinstated. Key risk: execution delays in converting the record order book into recognized revenue.
