Quarter overview
Quarterly earnings analysis
s, the top-line expansion was driven by robust execution momentum across the diversified infrastructure portfolio, with tollway collection remaining the largest contributor while EPC infrastructure continued to scale up activities.
Despite top-line growth, profitability faced severe margin compression during the quarter. EBITDA stood at ₹4.80 crore compared to ₹12.00 crore in Q1 FY26, bringing the EBITDA margin down to 1.6% from 10.7% a year ago.
The compression in operating margins was primarily attributed to lower traffic volumes at the Moti Naroli and select other toll projects, where geopolitical developments and global trade disruptions negatively impacted export-import activity and freight movement through port-linked corridors.
Management noted that traffic trends have begun showing signs of sequential improvement, supporting confidence in a gradual recovery of operating performance in subsequent quarters.
Alongside tolling headwinds, the company maintained strong execution momentum across its EPC portfolio, highlighted by the commencement of construction at the Beverly Hills project, which adds revenue visibility from the private segment.
