  • The ramp-up of new products, especially in the railway segment post-RDSO approval anticipated after March 2026, is expected to drive top-line and bottom-line growth.
  • Capacity utilization improvements, especially in steel (currently 20-30%), will boost revenues substantially (potential turnover of Rs. 300+ Cr at 100% utilization).
