Tirupati Forge Limited has released an investor presentation detailing its financial and operational performance for the fourth quarter and full financial year ended March 31, 2026. The presentation also provides an update on the company's defense project for manufacturing Empty Shell Body 155 MM M107.
The company reported that revenue dipped to ₹43.04 crore in Q4FY26 from ₹49.25 crore in Q3FY26 due to headwinds in the traditional business caused by geopolitical tensions. Profit After Tax (PAT) for Q4FY26 declined to ₹15.2 million (₹1.52 crore) from ₹20.2 million (₹2.02 crore) in Q3FY26. However, the adjusted PAT stood at ₹62.95 million (₹6.30 crore) versus ₹78.55 million (₹7.86 crore), after accounting for higher depreciation and interest costs related to the new defense plant and solar unit commissioning.
For the full financial year FY26, revenue increased to ₹165.94 crore from ₹116.29 crore in FY25, driven by a growing order book and strong demand momentum in the US market. FY26 PAT was ₹62.9 million (₹6.30 crore) compared to ₹78.5 million (₹7.86 crore) in FY25. This temporary moderation in profitability is attributed to upfront investments in the new defense manufacturing facility and the solar power plant, aimed at long-term growth and operational efficiency.
In the defense sector, the manufacturing plant has been successfully commissioned, with hot trials completed and balance trials on track for completion by Q1FY27. Trial production of shell bodies has been successfully completed as per specifications. Commercial production is expected to commence in Q2FY27, with customer discussions at advanced stages. FY27 is anticipated to be a transformative year for Tirupati Forge's growth journey. The defense vertical is projected to generate annual revenues of approximately ₹250 crore at full utilization, with revenue contribution beginning in FY27 and full-year impact visible from FY28 onwards. EBITDA margins from the defense vertical are expected to be upwards of 40%.
The commissioning of the solar power plant is expected to deliver annualized cost savings of approximately ₹2 crore, with full benefits accruing upon the commencement of commercial production at the defense facility.
