Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) has released the transcript of its Q4 FY26 earnings conference call, which took place on May 26, 2026. The call, attended by key management personnel including the Chairman & Managing Director, Shri Saleem Ahmad, provided an update on the company's performance and outlook.
The company reported a strong standalone order inflow of ₹4,644 crore for the quarter ended March 2026, bringing the full financial year 2025-26 standalone order inflows to ₹5,875 crore. With joint ventures, the total order book stood at an impressive ₹99,262 crore as of March 31, 2026. The order book is diversified across railways (₹57,000 crore), signaling (₹14,900 crore), port, roads, and highways (₹10,400 crore), metros (₹9,900 crore), power and transmission (₹4,000 crore), and hydro and irrigation projects (₹2,000 crore).
RVNL reported significant revenue growth in Q4 FY26, with standalone turnover increasing by 47.6% quarter-on-quarter and 4.78% year-on-year. Consolidated turnover also saw substantial growth. However, profitability remained under pressure, with standalone EBITDA declining by 16.88% QoQ and 33.55% YoY, and EBITDA margins reducing from 10.36% to 5.83%. This was attributed to certain onerous contracts and reconciliation adjustments related to joint ventures.
Key projects highlighted include the BharatNet project (₹13,236 crore, 15.01% physical progress), Rishikesh Karnaprayag Rail project (₹37,000 crore, 74% overall progress, targeted for completion by December 2029), and the Vande Bharat sleeper train set project (₹14,400 crore), with the first prototype targeted for launch in December 2026. The company also mentioned receiving an MoU rating of 'very good' for 2024-25 and a final dividend of ₹148.03 crore, subject to shareholder approval.
Management expressed confidence in future growth, expecting revenue to rise by 15-20% in FY27 with improved margins. They also addressed concerns about receivables and cash flow, noting that ₹3,400 crore recoverable from the Ministry of Railways was received in April. The company is focusing on faster execution, utilizing advanced technologies, and improving operational efficiency. The order book is split almost equally between nomination and competitive bidding.
