The full read
Kilburn Engineering closed FY26 with ₹628.8 crore in consolidated revenue, a 48% increase over the prior year. Net profit followed a similar trajectory, climbing 54% to ₹96.2 crore. Operational efficiency was the standout, with EBITDA margins reaching 25.1%, comfortably exceeding the 22-23% range management had previously guided.
Debt is gone.
A ₹300 crore fundraise in May 2026 cleared the company of net debt, a move that helped secure an A- credit rating and paved the way for a final dividend of ₹3 per share. The results confirm a period of rapid expansion and deleveraging for the firm, but the next test is whether these elevated margins are a structural improvement or merely a byproduct of the current order cycle.
