The full read
Inox India just bagged ₹322 crore in new orders since April, a 21% boost to an already healthy book of ₹1,514 crore. The standout is a 'mega' order—over ₹150 crore—from a global private space exploration company for large-scale cryogenic storage tanks. This marks an entry into aerospace, a high-growth vertical that plays to Inox's core cryo expertise. The order mix is diversified across Industrial Gas, LNG, and Cryo-scientific segments, suggesting demand is broad-based. For a mid-cap, booking nearly 20% of FY26 revenue in a few months provides strong revenue visibility. The order book now covers roughly a year of sales, reducing earnings risk. Expect analyst upgrades as the market prices in this inflection in order momentum. The key question is how margins on the space-related order compare to the rest.
