Ahluwalia Contracts (India) Ltd (AHLUCONT) Q1FY27 Concall Summary - Jun-2026 Qtr
Performance Overview
- The company reported a revenue growth of 12.03% YoY, but experienced a significant 77.65% YoY decline in Profit After Tax (PAT), primarily due to a sharp contraction in EBITDA margins.
- EBITDA margins fell drastically to 4.29% from 8.59% in the previous year, attributed to a one-time billing dispute on the AIIMS Jammu project, a substantial increase in labour costs in the NCR region, and higher staff costs from organizational expansion.
- The company's order book remains robust at INR 20,663.52 crores, providing revenue visibility for the next 3 to 3.5 years, although the order inflow guidance for the full year has been conservatively revised downwards.
- Management highlighted significant operational headwinds, including labour shortages, supply chain disruptions for materials like switchgear, and the potential impact of NGT regulations in the upcoming quarters.
- Despite the challenging quarter, the company is maintaining its full-year revenue growth guidance of 12-15%, contingent on the severity of the NGT impact, and is actively negotiating with clients to mitigate the impact of increased labour costs.
