Synopsis:-Crossing the ₹1,000-crore mark in a single order announcement, KEC International has secured new orders worth Rs. 1,002 crore across its T&D, Renewables, Transportation, and Cables & Conductors businesses, with the flagship HVDC win in Western India giving fresh momentum to an already dense order book.
Shares of KEC International came into focus this week after the global infrastructure EPC major disclosed a fresh round of order wins spanning its transmission, renewables, transportation, and cables businesses. The announcement cuts across domestic and international geographies, with the headline being an HVDC transmission line contract in Western India, a technically complex, higher-margin segment where very few players can compete.
With a market capitalization of approximately Rs. 15,466 crore, the shares of KEC International were trading at Rs. 596 per share, up by 4.5 percent from their previous closing price of Rs. 570. It is trading at a P/E of 21.03.
Order Update
The company won new orders worth Rs. 1,002 crores. The headline win is a ±500 kV HVDC transmission line contract from a reputed private developer in Western India, a segment where KEC has been deliberately building its position. HVDC projects carry both technical complexity and longer revenue cycles, which typically means better margins and stickier client relationships compared to conventional EHV line work. Alongside this, the T&D vertical also picked up 132 kV cabling works from a steel producer in Eastern India and a supply contract for towers, hardware, and poles in the Americas.
The Renewables business added a 100+ MW wind project in Southern India, awarded by an existing private developer as a repeat order, which indicates execution confidence from the client side. Transportation secured two contracts in the Automatic Block Signaling (ABS) segment in Southern India, extending what has been a steady run in technology-enabled railway infrastructure. Cables & Conductors rounded out the announcement with multiple orders in India and overseas.
MD & CEO Vimal Kejriwal noted that the HVDC order has strengthened the India T&D order book in a space where competition remains limited to a handful of capable players. His comment on the wind project being a repeat win from an existing customer also matters; it is a signal of a delivery track record, not just pipeline.
