The tech firm's growth in profit was bolstered by the effective execution of high-margin orders, sustained operational excellence, a good product mix and increased export momentum, it said in a regulatory filing.

During the quarter under review, the energy firm's revenue from operations stood at ₹1,529.8 crore, marking a 15.3% YoY increase from ₹1,327.3 crore in the June quarter of FY25. This revenue growth was achieved through effective order execution during the quarter and continued improvement in overall operational efficiency.

The company's orders totaled ₹11,339.2 crore in the June FY26 quarter, rising 365.4% YoY, supported by the large project win of the Bhadla-Fatehpur High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) link, a bulk order from POWERGRID to supply 30 units of 765-kilovolt (kV) 500 megavoltampere (MVA) single-phase transformers, etc.

In terms of segment, transmission continues to lead the order book, followed by orders from the rail & metro and data center segments.

Service clocked a 91% YoY order growth; some of the key service orders include SCADA upgrades, equipment replacement, and annual maintenance contracts.

Meanwhile, exports maintained consistency by contributing 24.7% without HVDC orders in Q1 FY26, it stated.

In the quarter, the company received export orders from Europe, South America, and Asia, it stated.

The order backlog stood at ₹29,125.3 crore during the period, providing revenue visibility for the coming quarters.
