Management Comments
Commenting on the results, Mr. Manish Mohnot, MD & CEO, of KPIL said:
“We have delivered another quarter of good performance driven by robust execution and strong order inflows in our major business verticals. We achieved ₹ 8,759 crs in revenues, representing a growth of 17% YoY, and ₹ 752 crs of EBITDA, resulting in an 8.6% margin for H1 FY24 at the consolidated level.
As we move into the latter half of FY24, we believe a favorable shift in the business environment especially in the T&D and select civil business verticals will help us to strengthen our position further in the EPC market. Our order book at ₹ 47,040 crs and L1 of over ₹ 4,200 crs to date in the current financial year provides good visibility for growth in coming quarters.
We continue to drive growth and create differentiation by strengthening our capabilities organically and through strategic business development in newer areas like data centres, airports, heavy civil, design-build B&F projects, industrial projects, and manufacturing expansion. KPIL has established a strong diversified order book, expanded global reach, and robust execution capabilities, which makes it well poised to deliver profitable growth while maintaining a strong balance sheet.”
