The increase in sales volumes was supported by the expansion of installed capacityto12,000MVAinFY26(FY23-FY25:9,684MVA).Consequently,itscapacity utilisationimprovedto92.5%in FY26 (FY25: 80.2%; FY24: 75.1%) reflecting efficient absorption of the augmented manufacturing capacity. The revenueexpandedataCAGRofabout28.1%overFY23-FY26. The company had an order book of INR11,228 million as on 30 June 2026, which the management expects to execute largely during FY27. The order book provides healthy near-term revenue visibility and translates into about 1.45x FY26 revenue. The EBITDA increased to INR1.291.16 million (FY25: INR846.28 million; FY24: INR683.41 million), supported by higher scale of operations. Exports contributed a marginal 0.12% (0.32%; 4.31%) of the revenue, with the balance generated from domestic customers. Ind-Ra expects ITL's scale of operations to improve overtheneartomediumterm,supportedbyexecutionoftheexistingorderbookandplannedcapacityexpansions. Healthy EBITDA Margins: ITL's EBITDA margin remained healthy at 16.70% in FY26 (FY25: 13.98%; FY24: 13.71%), primarily driven by better absorption of personnel and administrative expenses following higher scale of operations. The return on capital employed also strengthened to 37.2% in FY26 (FY25: 31.4%), reflecting improved operatingefficiency. The company’s profitability is likely to witness pressure, due to the current geopolitical conditions, elevated freight costs and volatility in raw material prices, particularly copper and cold rolled grain oriented (CRGO) steel. Ind-Ra expects the EBITDA margins to remain healthy over the near to medium term, supported by the company's predominantly variable-price contracts, which allow it to pass on a significant portion of input cost increases to customers,therebymitigatingtheimpactonprofitability. Comfortable CreditMetrics: ITL's gross interest coverage (operating EBITDA/ gross interest expense) increased to 11.70x in FY26 (FY25: 7.97x; FY24: 5.49x) and the net leverage (net debt/EBITDA) reduced to negative 0.57x (negative 0.48x; 0.22x), supported by the increase in its EBITDA coupled with increase in free cash balances to INR781.73million(INR710.77million;INR260.78million)andadecreaseindebtlevelstoINR51.95million(INR81.59 million;INR49.96million) The company incurredcapexof aboutINR340.55millioninFY26towardscapacity enhancementto 12,000 MVA.The capex wasfunded entirely throughinternal accruals.The management plans toincrease thecapacity by 13,000MVA by end-FY27 through a capex of INR680 million and further expand by 25,000 MVA by end-FY29 through an additionalinvestmentofaroundINR3,950millionoverFY27-FY29.The managementexpectsthe capex to be funded through a mix of internal accruals and debt. Despite the proposed debt-funded expansion, Ind-Ra expects the credit metrics to witness only a moderate moderation and remain comfortable, supported by the likely improvement in its operatingscaleandcashgeneration.
