Quarter overview

Quarterly earnings analysis

01

Websol Energy System Limited delivered a strong financial and operational start to fiscal year 2027 during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1 FY27). Revenue from operations expanded by 70.3% year-on-year to reach INR 373 crore compared to INR 219 crore in Q1 FY26, driven by robust manufacturing throughput and sustained demand across its product lines.

02

Profitability continued to scale alongside top-line growth, with Profit After Tax (PAT) rising 15.8% year-on-year to INR 78 crore from INR 67 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal year. On a sequential basis, revenue moderated by 7.2% and PAT declined by 37.5% compared to Q4 FY26, a period that had benefited from a larger base and an appellate order enabling the set-off of brought-forward losses against current taxable income.

03

Operational momentum remained solid on the manufacturing front. Cell production reached 259 MW in Q1 FY27 with a capacity utilization rate of 92%, matching the high utilization levels seen in Q4 FY26 and improving upon the 90% utilization recorded in Q1 FY26. Module production scaled to 103 MW, achieving an 81% capacity utilization rate compared to 39% in Q1 FY26 and 74% in Q4 FY26.

04

Demand visibility strengthened further during the quarter, supported by a growing order book. The company closed Q1 FY27 with an order book of INR 1,278 crore, up from an opening order book of INR 1,161 crore at the end of Q4 FY26. During the quarter, Websol executed INR 373 crore of orders and secured INR 490 crore in new order intake.

05

The order book mix as of June 30, 2026, was evenly balanced between solar modules at INR 613 crore (52%) and solar cells at INR 665 crore (48%). This healthy backlog reflects continuing demand from utility-scale developers and government-backed schemes under the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) mandate.

06

Strategic execution progressed on multiple fronts during the quarter, highlighted by ongoing engineering work for the brownfield upgradation of an existing 600 MW Mono PERC cell line to TOPCon technology at the Falta facility. This project aims to add 150 MW of incremental capacity, achieving an expected cell efficiency of approximately 25% with an estimated capital outlay of INR 270 crore.

07

Financial discipline was maintained through internal accruals and capital management, building upon earlier debt pre-closures and a net cash position of INR (34) crore as of March 31, 2026. Management emphasized that FY27 is positioned as a year of technology-led scaling and acceleration across its manufacturing ecosystem.

01 · Business model

What does Websol Energy System do?

Websol Energy System Limited is among India's early pioneering solar manufacturing enterprises, established in 1990 with over three decades of operational presence through multiple technology cycles. The company operates integrated manufacturing facilities located in Falta, West Bengal, specializing in the production of photovoltaic solar cells and solar modules.

The company generates its primary revenues through the sale of high-efficiency solar cells and downstream solar modules. Its manufacturing footprint encompasses forward-integrated module capacity designed to cater to domestic content requirement (DCR) schemes such as PM-KUSUM and PM Surya Ghar, aligning its product lines with national solar mandates.

Websol has continuously evolved its technology platforms from conventional mono-crystalline and multi-crystalline formats to Mono PERC and advanced Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact (TOPCon) architectures. Its customer base includes utility-scale project developers, commercial and industrial (C&I) clients, and participants in government-backed decentralized solar programs.

The operational model leverages deep-rooted local supply chain relationships, a skilled manufacturing workforce in West Bengal, and progressive technological upgrades to enhance cell output efficiency, lower balance-of-system costs, and capture expanding domestic demand.
