The full read
Diamond Power turned on its eighth MV/EHV power cable line in Vadodara. It adds 150 km of monthly capacity. Total output capability now stands at 1,200 km per month, a 14.3% jump from the previous 1,050 km. The ₹30 crore tab was paid from internal cash. That's 0.3% of the company's ₹10,063 crore market capitalization. A trivial cost. The capacity is not. It directly backs a multi-thousand-crore order book. This follows the recent commissioning of a seventh line. It is a pattern. The expansion was previously signaled and has now been executed. The next test is whether utilization on the new line proves the demand thesis.
