Shri Balaji targets 20-25% growth for FY27 on new German wins and plant capacity.
The Pune valve maker's third plant gives it headroom to ₹150 cr without new capex. A fresh German commitment and a pilot deal for a second client anchor the export push.
What's new
- Set a FY27 growth target of 20-25%, with its new plant scaling capacity to ₹150 cr.
- Landed an annual commitment from one German client and a pilot order from a second in the power sector.
- Exports now cover 14 countries and are 26% of revenue, despite some Middle East logistical snags.
Why this matters
The growth target is backed by tangible capacity. With the third plant commissioned, Shri Balaji has the physical headroom to add roughly ₹53 cr in sales before needing to spend heavily again. The German client wins are the first concrete evidence that the export push is converting.
What we're watching
- Whether the pilot order with the second German client converts to a full annual commitment.
- How raw material volatility impacts the 17% EBITDA margin target through FY27.
- The pace of order flow to see if the 20-25% growth target is met or exceeded.
