The full read
Siemens Energy India is scaling up. The company just posted a 27% increase in half-year revenue to ₹43 billion, pairing that top-line growth with a 160 basis point expansion in EBITDA margins to 20.7%. Behind these figures lies a swelling order backlog of ₹184 billion, representing a 22.2% increase that ensures steady work for the near future. Management is now pivoting toward expansion, committing ₹28 billion in capital expenditure. This spend includes a new greenfield transformer factory designed to capture demand from India’s grid electrification and the burgeoning data centre sector. Power transmission and generation segments remain the primary engines, with growth rates of 30% and 23% respectively. These gains are driven by a mix of better export margins and the efficiency that comes with higher volume. The company has a clear path for expansion, but the next test is how quickly it can bring the new capacity online.
