15% FY27 revenue growth target.

What's new

  • Adding 7,800 tonnes Green Sand capacity in H1 FY27 at ₹25-30 cr.
  • Planning 24,000-tonne Lost Foam Casting expansion in FY28 at ₹60-70 cr.
  • First meaningful revenue from railway components targeted in FY27.

Why this matters

The two-phase capex plan shifts Pritika toward higher-value Lost Foam Casting while stabilizing margins through raw-material pass-through. Margin recovery to 15-16% is the test of whether this strategy works.

What we're watching

  • Raw-material pass-through translating into the guided 15-16% EBITDA margin.
  • H1 FY27 execution on Green Sand capacity addition.
  • First railway component revenue in FY27.
