Analysts at Goldman Sachs expect L&T’s Total Addressable Market (TAM) to rise to ₹3.4 lakh crore by financial year 2035, compared with the current estimate of ₹1.4 lakh crore for FY26.

The global investment bank also highlighted L&T’s strong order backlog and improving confidence in a domestic capex recovery across several sectors. It further expects the company’s revenue to compound at a low double-digit rate and its profit after tax to grow in the mid-teens over the next five years.

Recently, L&T had said it expects the next phase of growth to be driven not only by scaling operations but also by embracing digitisation, sustainability, and climate resilience.
