(Compiled from RHP and market updates)<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Industry Context<\/b><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • India\u2019s electricity demand continues to expand, with peak power demand rising from 156 GW in FY16 to around 245 GW in FY26, creating sustained requirements for generation, transmission and distribution infrastructure.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • India\u2019s electricity generation increased from 1,372 BU in FY19 to 1,840 BU in FY26. Rising consumption and expanding infrastructure are supporting demand for transformers and other equipment across the power value chain.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Renewable energy is becoming increasingly important in India\u2019s power mix. Renewable sources, including solar, wind and hydro, increased their contribution from 19.1% in FY19 to 26.0% in FY26.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • India\u2019s installed power capacity reached 532.7 GW in FY26, compared with 356.1 GW in FY19. With non-fossil sources accounting for 53.2%, continued capacity additions are expected to support equipment demand.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Government initiatives targeting 500 GW of renewable capacity by 2030, alongside investments in transmission, distribution and battery storage, are expected to strengthen opportunities for power infrastructure companies and transformer manufacturers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Business Strengths<\/b><\/h2>\n
      \n
    • Over four decades of transformer manufacturing experience and a strong presence across power transmission, railways, renewable energy and distribution position Kanohar Electricals to address diverse and specialised infrastructure requirements.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • The company\u2019s certification for 500 MVA, 400 kV transformers, along with successful testing of more than 200 ratings, strengthens its eligibility to participate in large and technically demanding power transmission contracts.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Its integrated Transformer Manufacturing and EPC businesses enable Kanohar Electricals to offer end-to-end solutions, covering transformers, substations and transmission lines, while expanding its addressable market across India\u2019s power infrastructure sector.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Two manufacturing facilities in Meerut have an aggregate transformer capacity of 19,200 MVA. Backward integration for critical components such as tanks and radiators supports quality control, cost efficiency and faster delivery.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Kanohar Electricals has demonstrated strong financial growth, with revenue rising from \u20b92,766.90 million in FY24 to \u20b96,538.39 million in FY26, while EBITDA increased from \u20b9310.72 million to \u20b91,804.16 million.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Business Risks<\/b><\/h2>\n
        \n
      • Kanohar Electricals derives a substantial share of its revenue from transformer manufacturing. Any decline in transformer demand could negatively impact its revenue, profitability, financial performance and overall business prospects.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • The company depends significantly on high-growth sectors such as power transmission, railways and renewable energy. Any slowdown, economic downturn or adverse industry trend in these sectors could affect its operations.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Under-utilisation of the Rithani and Gangol manufacturing facilities could adversely affect operating efficiency and financial performance. The company\u2019s reported capacity and utilisation figures also rely on management assumptions and estimates.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Customer concentration remains a key risk, with the top 10 customers contributing 93.16%, 93.88% and 95.43% of revenue from operations in FY26, FY25 and FY24, respectively, increasing dependence on major customers.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Kanohar Electricals relies significantly on government-controlled entities and competitive tenders for projects. Failure to qualify for, win or execute contracts profitably, or maintain pre-qualification requirements, could adversely affect business growth.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
