Bhavin Modi: Yes, thank you. This is Bhavin Modi from Anand Rathi Institutional Equities. Good morning,
everyone, and a warm welcome to the Q2 and H1 FY '27 Earnings Calls of Afcons Infrastructure
Limited.
To discuss the results today, we have the management with us, which is represented by Mr.
Srinivasan Paramasivan – the Managing Director; Mr. Ramesh Jha – CFO, and Mr. Hitesh Singh
– the Corporate Strategy Head.
Now, at this point, I will hand over the floor to the management for the initial remarks, and post
which, we can open the floor for the question-and-answer session. With that, over to you, sir.
Srinivasan Paramasivan: Thank you, Bhavin. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Our financial results and investor
presentation for the quarter and half year ended September 2026 have been uploaded on the
stock exchanges, and I am sure you had the opportunity to review them.
Let me begin with a brief overview of our performance:
For Q2 FY27, Afcons reported a revenue of INR 2,906 crores, EBITDA of INR 316 crores with
an EBITDA margin of 10.9%, and profit after tax of INR 41 crores. For the first half year,
revenue stood at INR 5,633 crores, EBITDA at INR 578 crores with an EBITDA margin of
10.3%, while profit after tax stood at INR 71 crores.
At the same time, our order booking continued to strengthen. During H1, we secured orders
worth close to INR 16,000 crore, taking our total order book to INR 43,836 crore. This excludes
L1 orders. As on date, for the year, our intake is close to INR 19,500 crores, excluding L1 orders.
With an identified project pipeline of around INR 80,000 crores for Financial Year '27, bids
under evaluation, and several opportunities at different stages of tendering, we remain on track
towards our full-year order inflow guidance of INR 30,000 crores. These wins have strengthened
our order book and provide healthy revenue visibility for the coming years.
Let me now address the operating performance:

Our Q2 performance was lower than the corresponding period last year. The constraints that we
discussed in our Q1 call have evolved differently across projects. Land handovers are
progressing at affected sites, and certain approvals and clearances have moved forward. These
are important developments because they should enable higher activity at these projects during
the second half. While these developments are encouraging, our endeavor is to deliver higher
level of execution. We remain focused on translating the improving project environment into
stronger operating performance in the periods ahead.
Not everything has moved at the same pace. Liquidity and collection remain challenging, and
execution on the Jal Jeevan Mission project in U.P. continues to remain gradual. Let me assure
you, we are managing the issue project by project, with particular attention to execution
readiness, client interfaces, collections, and cash flow. Our objective is to address the issues
within our control and be ready to accelerate execution as the remaining constraints are resolved.
Against this background, our Q2 performance was broadly in line with our expectations. On the
positive side, both tunnel boring machines at the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail project
are progressing in line with the schedule, and our teams remain focused on achieving the planned
execution progress. We have also achieved significant progress at our Greater Male Connectivity
Project. The final segment of Thilamale Bridge, connecting Vilimalé Island to the capital Malé,
was completed during the quarter, marking a significant step forward to the project. It is the
largest infrastructure project funded by India outside the country. It will, upon completion, stand
as an engineering marvel and serve as an important catalyst for connectivity and economic
development across Greater Malé region.
Beyond the execution progress discussed, we also achieved project milestone. Phase-II of
Mithapur–Sipara Elevated Corridor was inaugurated by the Honorable Chief Minister of Bihar
during the quarter. The corridor is expected to reduce travel time between Mithapur, Mahuli,
and Punpun from approximately one hour to around 15 minutes. The engineering capabilities,
execution discipline, and safety systems that underpin these achievements also continue to
receive recognition from leading industry institutions during the period.
Afcons was named Construction Contractor of the Year at the 16th Construction Week Awards,
while several of our projects received safety awards and recognitions from domestic and
international institutions.
Turning briefly to the business environment, the infrastructure opportunity in India remains
healthy, although the pace of project awards remains uneven and competition is intense in certain
segments.
Internationally, geopolitical tensions in West Asia continue to affect logistics and the cost of
certain inputs on some of our projects. We are addressing these through advanced procurement,
alternate sourcing, and close coordination with clients, suppliers, and logistics partners.

As I look to the second half of the year, I see clear priorities for us: accelerating execution where
the necessary fronts and approvals are available, improving collections and cash generation, and
mobilizing new projects faster to make us ready for growth in the next financial year. Our
execution visibility for H2 is better today than what was at the beginning of the financial year.
Based on the visibility, we expect execution in the second half to be stronger than in the first
half.
Let me conclude with on
