Manufactures iron castings supplied to the automotive, tractor, commercial vehicle and railway industries. The BRSR filing describes it as an iron castings maker for autos, tractors and railways, with FY26 turnover of Rs 1,328.4 crore and exports of 29 percent shipped to 13 countries. The bulk of revenue is driven by tractor and commercial vehicle demand, which the company flagged as healthy in its Q1 FY27 commentary, while new product lines were slated to start production in Q2 FY27 with a full ramp-up expected in H2 FY27. Cost structure in FY26 was dominated by materials at 43.4 percent of revenue, followed by other operating expenses at 41.2 percent, with employee costs at 6.8 percent and depreciation at 2.0 percent. Profitability compressed sharply in Q1 FY27, with EBITDA margin falling to 5.8 percent from 9.6 percent a year earlier, which management attributed to elevated raw material costs linked to geopolitical issues and labour constraints. The subsidiary NC Energy has not yet started operations, so consolidated results match the standalone numbers. AR · MarketPing reader · 2026-08-02

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.
