What this company actually does

Read out of the prospectus’s business section, stripped of its marketing language.

LCC Projects Limited is a multidisciplinary engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) company headquartered in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, that builds irrigation and water-supply infrastructure — dams, barrages, weirs, hydraulic structures, canals, pipe distribution networks, lift irrigation works, multi-village drinking water schemes, sewage treatment and desalination projects — primarily for central and state government departments. It also runs a precast concrete manufacturing unit in Jaspur, Gujarat, has executed a metro-rail package, and is executing one mining development and operations (MDO) project.

How it earns

Almost entirely through lump-sum/turnkey EPC contracts (99.84% of FY2026 revenue from operations), with a small slice from post-completion operations and maintenance (O&M) work bundled into many of those contracts (0.16% in FY2026).

Who buys

Primarily central and state government departments and public-sector undertakings — named customers include Narmada Valley Development Authority, Madhya Pradesh Jal Nigam Maryadit, Sardar Sarovar Narmada Nigam Limited, Water Resource Division Damoh (MP), Anandpur Canal Division Salapada (Odisha), Indira Gandhi Nahar Project, Government of Rajasthan, and Department of Water Resources Odisha; several other clients (referred to as Customer 5, 6, 8, 9, 10) are not named due to non-receipt of consent. Government departments account for 79.07% of the FY2026 Order Book (₹6,288.55 crore / ₹62,885.50 million) and private customers for 20.93% (₹1,664.63 crore / ₹16,646.31 million).

Scale

FY2026 revenue from operations ₹3,600.25 crore (₹36,002.52 million), EBITDA ₹519.90 crore (₹5,198.97 million), PAT ₹286.44 crore (₹2,864.41 million); Order Book of 103 projects across 12 states; 698 in-house engineers/technical staff; one precast manufacturing unit at Jaspur (Gujarat); headquarters at Ahmedabad with regional offices in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Odisha; completed 80 projects to date.

What it says sets it apart

  • Focused position in multidisciplinary irrigation and water-supply EPC — 87.44% of FY2026 revenue (₹3,148.22 crore / ₹31,482.24 million) and 83.26% of FY2026 Order Book (₹6,621.43 crore / ₹66,214.31 million) comes from this segment.
  • Order Book of ₹7,953.18 crore (₹79,531.81 million) spread across 103 projects in 12 Indian states, providing revenue visibility.
  • In-house design and engineering capability with 698 qualified engineers/technical personnel (as on July 31, 2026) using SCADA, Water Gems, Water Hammer, KY Pipe, Staad-pro, AutoCAD, GIS and GPS for design and project monitoring.
  • Owned precast concrete manufacturing unit at Jaspur, Gujarat, producing precast elements in a controlled factory environment to speed up on-site assembly and reduce labour/congestion.
  • Disciplined risk-based bidding system — pre-tender site surveys, risk pricing and mitigation plans, milestone-based payment collection and contractual escalation clauses to pass cost overruns to customers; track record of 80 completed projects to March 31, 2026.
