The Mumbai-headquartered company's revenue from operations rose 25% in the January-March period to ₹3,442 crore from ₹2,753 crore in the year-ago period.

The firm reported stable operational performance in Q4 FY26 as its EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortisation), also known as operating profit, surged to ₹467 crore as against ₹347 crore a year earlier, marking a growth of 34.5%.

The company's EBITDA margin improved to 13.57% on a year-on-year (YoY) basis in contrast to 12.6% reported in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year.

CG Power, in a statement, said that its aggregate sales for the quarter were higher at ₹3,129 crore, recording a growth of 22% YoY. The company also reported an annualised ROCE² (Return on Capital Employed) at 27% during the quarter.

Its order intake rose 23% YoY to ₹4,505 crore, while the unexecuted order backlog stood at ₹15,719 crore as of March 31, 2026, marking a 59% growth compared to the previous year.

Analysts view

Following the earnings, analysts at Jefferies said EBITDA missed estimates by 17%, impacted by continued losses in the semiconductor business and lower margins in the Industrials segment.

They noted that the Power business continued to drive profitability, with the outlook remaining robust across domestic as well as export markets. However, it said concerns remain over the industrial segment dragging down the company’s overall profit growth.
