Financial Highlights: Particulars H1 FY25 H1 FY26 YoY Change Revenue from Operations 104.78 221.61 ↑ 111.50% Gross Profit 40.60 54.83 ↑ 35.05% EBITDA 19.83 34.00 ↑ 71.46% PBT 14.95 26.90 ↑ 79.93% PAT 10.13 20.05 ↑ 97.93% Minority Interest 0.04 0.57 1325.00 % EPS (₹) 9.89 19.26 ↑ 94.74% * Consolidated figure Revenue and Gross Margin • RMC Switchgears Limited recorded Revenue from Operations of ₹221.61 crore in H1 FY26, marking a robust 111.5% year-on-year growth over ₹104.78 crore in H1 FY25. The growth was primarily driven by strong execution in Solar EPC projects and steady performance across Electrical EPC and Electrical Products.
• The Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) stood at ₹166.78 crore, up from ₹64.18 crore in H1 FY25, reflecting the scale-up of operations and higher raw-material consumption during EPC project execution. Despite this, Gross Profit increased to ₹54.83 crore, up35.05% YoY, supported by operational efficiencies and timely deliveries.
• The Gross Margin moderated to 24.74% in H1 FY26, from 25.37% in H1 FY25, a contraction of 63 basis points YoY (-1401 bps when compared to the earlier base period), mainly due to a higher EPC revenue share. Encouragingly, margins remained broadly stable compared with H2 FY25 (38.75%), underscoring RMC's ability to maintain pricing discipline even at larger volumes.
EBITDA and EBITDA Margin • EBITDA rose sharply to ₹ 34.00 crore in H1 FY26, from ₹ 19.83 crore in H1 FY25, an increase of 71.46% YoY. The growth was fuelled by higher execution scale, cost control in logistics and procurement, and improved manufacturing throughput.
• The EBITDA margin stood at 15.34%, compared to 15.65% in H1 FY25, reflecting a modest and strategic recalibration of 31 basis points. As the Company expanded volumes and achieved breakeven across all operating verticals, management consciously prioritised absolute profit growth over percentage margins. Importantly, EBITDA margin remained broadly stable versus H2 FY25 (18.93%), indicating that operating efficiency has normalised at a sustainable level.
PBT and PBT Margin • Profit Before Tax (PBT) came in at ₹26.90 crore, up from ₹14.95 crore in H1 FY25, translating into a strong 79.93% year-on-year rise. The PBT margin stood at 12.14%, compared with 12.98% in H1 FY25. The marginal decline of 84 basis points was attributed to higher contributions from Solar EPC projects and increased finance costs from scale expansion.
• However, when compared with H2 FY25 (14.27%), margins remained largely steady, demonstrating RMC's ability to sustain profitability while growing aggressively across sectors.
PAT and PAT Margin • Profit After Tax (PAT) stood at ₹ 20.05 crore, nearly doubling from ₹ 10.13 crore in H1 FY25, delivering a 97.93% YoY increase. The PAT margin was 9.05% versus 10.00% in the prior-year period, a 95-basis-point YoY correction, but stable relative to H2 FY25 (9.67%).
• The steady margin performance, despite rapid business expansion, highlights robust cost control, prudent financial management, and efficient working-capital practices. Earnings Per Share (EPS) stood at ₹19.26, compared to ₹9.89 in H1 FY25, reflecting a 94.7% YoY improvement.
Operational Context and Future Outlook RMC Switchgears sustained its growth momentum in H1 FY26, underpinned by strong execution, healthy order inflows, and operational discipline. Large project wins across Solar EPC, Electrical EPC, and Products, including contracts worth ₹61 crore, ₹59 crore, and ₹16 crore respectively, reinforced the Company's leadership in power and renewable infrastructure. Process standardisation, digital project monitoring, and supply-chain integration continued to strengthen execution efficiency, enabling the business to scale rapidly while maintaining financial prudence.
The Solar Module Manufacturing Plant, a cornerstone in RMC's backward integration strategy, has seen its implementation timelines adjusted to accommodate procedural and design refinements. With SIDBI funding now secured, the project is moving forward in phases to ensure technological adaptability and long-term competitiveness. These revisions reflect a measured approach to expansion, aligning capacity creation with evolving policy frameworks and global market dynamics.
Looking ahead, RMC remains optimistic about the solar manufacturing opportunity. Industry indicators suggest that concerns about overcapacity are overstated, given strong domestic demand, localisation policies under PLI and ALMM, and the global shift toward supply-chain diversification. The initiative positions RMC not merely as a participant but as a future-ready and integrated enabler of India's renewable ecosystem.
The Company's project-based SPV model also continues to support operational flexibility and financial transparency, with consolidated results presenting a holistic picture of group performance. This structure allows RMC to pursue large-scale EPC opportunities while maintaining governance rigour and execution focus within each vertical.
With innovation at the forefront through solutions like the Pulse Box and a clear roadmap for capacity expansion, RMC enters the next phase of growth with a strong order book, operational stability, and long-term visibility. As the Company advances into H2 FY26 and FY27, emphasis will remain on achieving over 90% capacity utilisation, reducing project turnaround times, and enhancing vendor partnerships, thereby strengthening margins, efficiency, and its reputation for on-time, defect-free delivery.
Management Commentary: Commenting on the company's performance and outlook, Mr. Ankit Agrawal, Whole-timeDirector and CEO of RMC Switchgears Limited, said, "The first half of FY26 reinforces our belief that RMC's growth is structural, not cyclical. Our strategy of scaling with stability is delivering tangible results; revenue has more than doubled year-on-year, while absolute profitability has expanded sharply. The marginal dip in EBITDA margin is entirely strategic, reflecting our conscious choice to prioritise volume expansion and market share in Solar and Electrical EPC segments over short-term percentage margins. In essence, lower margin but higher turnover has translated into stronger cash flows and long-term earnings strength.
Our working capital remains under tight control with a cash conversion cycle of around 60 days, providing us the agility to execute large-scale EPC projects without strain. With over ₹ 1,500 crore in tenders already participated in and some under active evaluation, we look forward to our order pipeline growing in the coming quarters.
Operationally, H1 was also marked by major order wins, new leadership appointments, and our inclusion in Forbes Asia's Best Under a Billion 2025, a proud recognition of RMC's governance, innovation, and execution excellence. As we move through H2 and beyond, our focus remains on scaling manufacturing utilisation beyond 90%, further improving project turnaround, and building a stronger, more resilient supply chain. These initiatives will directly enhance margins, working-capital efficiency, and delivery precision, ensuring RMC continues to create long-term value for all stakeholders."
