₹200 cr FY27 revenue target, a 40-45% jump from FY26.

What's new

  • Gabion set an FY27 revenue target of ₹200 cr, up 40-45% from FY26's ₹115.58 cr.
  • Management aims to double product sales to ₹100 cr via a capacity expansion to 18,000 MT by September 2026.
  • A statement that the entire ₹200 cr order book would be done in FY27 was quickly revised to 90%.

Why this matters

The guidance is aggressive, but the fumbled order-book timeline is the real story. On a live call, management first claimed the ₹200 cr backlog would clear in FY27, then walked it back to 90%. That inconsistency muddies the visibility behind the headline target.

What we're watching

  • Whether the capacity expansion to 18,000 MT actually delivers the ₹100 cr in product sales.
  • How the ₹15 cr of unbilled work-in-progress from FY26 flows into FY27.
  • The clarity on the 90% vs. 100% order-book execution split.

The full read

Gabion Technologies wants investors to believe in a 40-45% revenue jump to ₹200 crore in FY27. Management's plan is to double product sales to ₹100 crore by expanding capacity from 12,000 to 18,000 metric tonnes by September 2026. The problem isn't the ambition. It's the arithmetic. On the call, management first claimed the entire ₹200 crore order book would be finished in FY27. It then revised that to 90%. That slip undermines the precision of the guidance. The FY26 miss, revenue landed at ₹115.58 crore against a 20-25% growth target, was blamed on ₹15 crore of unbilled work-in-progress. The H2 business grew 29% year-on-year, which is real. But when a company changes its order-book story mid-call, the gap between guidance and execution looks wider than the headline number suggests.

Questions answered

How much of the FY26 growth miss was due to timing?
FY26 revenue came in at ₹115.58 cr, below the 20-25% growth guidance. Management attributed the shortfall to ₹15 cr of unbilled work-in-progress, meaning the sales were logged but not yet invoiced.
What is the core of the capacity expansion plan?
Gabion is expanding manufacturing capacity from 12,000 to 18,000 metric tonnes by September 2026. The goal is to double product sales to ₹100 cr as part of the ₹200 cr revenue target.
Why did management change its story on the order book?
During the call, management first stated the entire ₹200 cr order book would be completed in FY27. It later revised this figure down to 90%, creating confusion about the revenue timing.
Was there any growth in the second half of FY26?
Yes. Despite the full-year miss, H2 revenue grew 29% year-on-year, suggesting momentum heading into the new fiscal year.
