Techno Electric halves data center target, pushes ₹75 EPS goal to FY28

Tipsheet Editorial — Tue, 26 May 2026 16:56:51 GMT

Management denied setting a ₹100 cr data center revenue target for FY27, contradicting prior calls. The stock's FY27 earnings guidance is now ₹60 EPS, not ₹75.

What’s new

Data center capacity target cut to 15-20 MW by Dec 2027 from 50 MW.
FY27 revenue guided to ₹4,000 cr with EPS of ₹60; the ₹75 EPS target deferred to FY28.
Management denied ever setting a ₹100 cr data center revenue target for FY27.

Why it matters

The company is publicly walking back targets it previously set. Cutting the data center goal by more than half and pushing the earnings milestone out by a year removes a core part of the investment thesis. The denial of prior guidance on the ₹100 cr target raises questions about internal communication and credibility.

What we’re watching

Whether the ₹75 EPS target for FY28 is treated as firm or open to further deferral.
Any updated capex or timeline for the scaled-back data center plan.
Management's explanation for the discrepancy between prior guidance and the new denial.

The full read

Techno Electric is pulling in its horns. The company has cut its data center capacity target to 15-20 MW by December 2027, from the 50 MW it previously promised. The earnings target has moved too: FY27 guidance is now ₹60 EPS on ₹4,000 crore revenue, with the ₹75 EPS milestone pushed to March 2028. The most jarring part is the denial. Management said it never set a ₹100 crore data center revenue target for FY27, contradicting explicit guidance from prior calls. This is not a simple guidance cut. It is a retraction of a number management itself put into the public domain. That is a different, and worse, signal.

Techno Electric's profit growth splits wide, auditor flags ₹88.5 cr receivables again

Tipsheet Editorial — Mon, 25 May 2026 20:37:43 GMT

Standalone profit jumped 26.6%, but consolidated growth slowed to 12%. The auditor's recurring flag on overdue receivables signals a problem that hasn't gone away.

What’s new

Standalone PAT (including discontinued ops) rose 26.6% to ₹542 cr on 35% revenue growth.
Consolidated profit grew only 12% to ₹474 cr, lagging the standalone pace.
Auditor again placed emphasis on ₹88.5 cr in overdue trade receivables.

Why it matters

The gap between standalone and consolidated profit growth suggests the consolidated entities are a drag on earnings. The auditor's repeated emphasis on ₹88.5 crore in overdue receivables means a cash-collection problem has not been fixed across reporting periods.

What we’re watching

Any plan to resolve the ₹88.5 cr receivables overhang.
Whether consolidated profit growth converges toward the standalone trend.
The final dividend payout, set at ₹7 per share.

The full read

Techno Electric's audited FY26 results show a 35% standalone revenue jump to ₹3,252 crore. Standalone profit, including discontinued operations, rose 26.6% to ₹542 crore. The consolidated numbers tell a different story. Profit grew just 12% to ₹474 crore. That is a 15 percentage-point gap. It signals the company's other units are holding back overall earnings growth. The second persistent problem is ₹88.5 crore in overdue trade receivables, which the auditor has flagged again. Not yet fixed. The final dividend is ₹7 per share. The filing is routine, confirming largely anticipated numbers. The open question is whether the receivables issue will finally be addressed, or if it will keep capping the valuation.
