CLN ENERGY LIMITED
Classified under the Auto Components industry, the company is shifting toward lithium-ion battery and energy storage systems. This is reflected in the July 2026 appointment of a Whole-time Director with over 7 years of experience in lithium-ion battery development across mobility, energy storage, telecom and EV applications, including work on what the filing describes as India's largest 150kWh tipper battery system. Revenue in FY26 was Rs 346.51 crore, with year-on-year revenue growth of 58% as reported in the audited results. The company has expanded its group structure by setting up a 51%-owned subsidiary CLN GREEN Private Limited, a wholly-owned UAE subsidiary CLN GREEN GENERAL TRADING LLC, and acquired Electrovault Power Private Limited as an associate. Materials are the dominant cost at 79.7% of revenue, with employee cost at 3.7% and other operating expenses at 5.5%, and capital expenditure of 0.9% of revenue. The company is raising funds through a preferential allotment of 2,50,000 equity shares at Rs 423 per share to promoter-group entity CLN Energy PTE Limited, with proceeds intended to help meet the Rs 10 crore FDI threshold required for UP Government leasehold land. Bank facilities total about Rs 55 crore, comprising Rs 40 crore from HDFC Bank and Rs 15 crore from ICICI Bank, with a credit rating upgrade from CARE in July 2026.

This document is a statistical summary of publicly filed information and market data, prepared by software from primary sources: SEBI results XBRL filed with BSE and NSE, LODR disclosures, shareholding patterns, exchange price data. It contains no research recommendation, no price target and no opinion on the merits of any security, and is not a research report within the meaning of the SEBI (Research Analysts) Regulations, 2014, Regulation 2(1)(w)(vii). Financial statements are as filed (consolidated where the company files consolidated results). Ratios are computed over filed lines. Where a figure is unavailable the table shows a dash rather than an estimate. The business brief is written by MarketPing's reader from the annual report and checked against it; no figure in a table was generated by a model.
