Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], August 12: SEPC Limited (NSE: SEPC | BSE: 532945), a leading EPC company with established expertise in industrial infrastructure, process plants, water and wastewater management, today announced its consolidated financial results for the first quarter (Q1 FY27) ended 30 June 2026.
The company delivered strong topline growth of 40% year-on-year, even as its international project sites -- including ongoing execution in the Middle East -- worked through a challenging regional operating environment during the quarter. Order intake remained robust, anchored by a large multi-package win from SAIL at its IISCO Burnpur Steel Plant, reinforcing the strength and diversification of SEPC's order book across geographies and sectors.
- ₹282 Cr Total Income in Q1 FY27, up 40% YoY from ₹202 Cr in Q1 FY26
- ₹10,670 Cr Total orders on hand as at 30 June 2026 -- domestic + international
- ₹952 Cr Fresh SAIL Pellet Plant order received in August 2026, over and above the order book
Key Highlights
- Total Income stood at ₹282 Cr in Q1 FY27, up 40% year-on-year from ₹202 Cr in Q1 FY26, supported by continued execution across the order book.
- EBITDA stood at ₹26 Cr, with an EBITDA margin of 9.2%, compared with ₹30 Cr and 14.9%, respectively, in Q1 FY26, primarily reflecting margin pressure on select overseas contracts.

Strategic & Corporate Developments

- The company has substantially utilised the proceeds of its recent rights issue, deploying funds towards debt repayment, NCD redemption and working capital requirements in line with the stated objects of the issue.
Commenting on the Q1 FY27 financial results, Mr. Venkataramani Jaiganesh, Managing Director, SEPC Limited, said: "Q1 FY27 marked a strong start to the year, with revenue growing 40% year-on-year, reflecting continued execution across our diversified order book. While margins remained under pressure in select international projects during the quarter, our focus remains on disciplined execution, cost optimisation and improving project-level profitability as these projects progress.
Our order book continues to provide a strong foundation for growth, with a healthy mix across water, mining, industrial EPC, power, construction, roads and oil & gas. The recent wins from SAIL, including the 4.2 MTPA Pellet Plant BOP project, further strengthen our position in the metals and mining segment and add to the momentum in our domestic business.
As we move through FY27, our priorities remain focused on strengthening execution, improving project margins and converting our growing pipeline of opportunities into sustainable business growth. We remain confident in our ability to build on the current order momentum while maintaining a disciplined approach to project selection and execution."
