Kirloskar Oil Engines delivered a record Q4 with consolidated revenue of ₹2,116 crore (+21% YoY) and PAT of ₹162 crore (+47% YoY). Standalone revenue hit ₹1,522 crore (+24% YoY), driven by broad-based double-digit growth across Power Gen (+30%), Industrial (+24%), and Distribution & Aftermarket (+20%). The company sold over 50,000 DG sets in FY26, gaining market share to ~28% in a market that grew 18%. International gross sales crossed ₹1,000 crore, growing 37% YoY. Management reiterated the $2 billion revenue target by FY30 and announced a ₹1,400 crore capex for a new HHP engine facility at Kagal, expected to add 20,000 engines and generate asset turns of 4-5x. Key risks include raw material inflation (copper, pig iron) and geopolitical disruptions in the Middle East, though no near-term impact was noted. The company remains confident in sustaining margin expansion through operating leverage as new capacities come online.
किर्लोस्कर ऑयल इंजन ने चौथी तिमाही में शानदार प्रदर्शन किया। कंपनी की कुल कमाई ₹2,116 करोड़ रही, जो पिछले साल से 21% ज़्यादा है। मुनाफा ₹162 करोड़ रहा, जो 47% बढ़ा। बिजली उत्पादन, औद्योगिक और बिक्री-सेवा सभी क्षेत्रों में अच्छी बढ़ोतरी हुई। कंपनी ने 50,000 से अधिक डीजल जनरेटर सेट बेचे और बाजार हिस्सेदारी 28% तक पहुंच गई। अंतरराष्ट्रीय बिक्री ₹1,000 करोड़ पार कर गई। कंपनी का लक्ष्य 2030 तक $2 बिलियन कमाई का है। इसके लिए वह कागल में नया कारखाना बनाएगी, जिसमें ₹1,400 करोड़ का निवेश होगा। कच्चे माल की बढ़ती कीमतें और मिडिल ईस्ट में अस्थिरता जोखिम हैं, लेकिन फिलहाल कोई बड़ा असर नहीं दिख रहा।
