KEC International, the global infrastructure EPC major and flagship company of the RPG Group, reported a robust performance for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, with consolidated net profit rising 76 percent year-on-year to ₹268 crore, compared to ₹152 crore in the same quarter last year. The company’s operational momentum remained strong, with revenue for the quarter increasing by 11.5 percent to ₹6,872 crore from ₹6,165 crore a year ago.

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) came in at ₹539 crore, reflecting a sharp 39 percent jump over the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal. The EBITDA margin expanded meaningfully to 7.8 percent from 6.3 percent, supported by improved execution, cost optimisation, and better project mix.

For the full year, KEC delivered its highest-ever order intake, securing contracts worth ₹24,689 crore—a growth of over 36 percent compared to the previous year. As of March 31, 2025, the company’s order book stood at ₹33,398 crore. Including the current L1 (lowest bidder) position, the combined order pipeline now exceeds ₹40,000 crore. Management confirmed that it has already bagged over ₹2,000 crore in fresh orders for FY26, signalling sustained momentum in its core business segments.

Commenting on the results, Vimal Kejriwal, Managing Director and CEO, said the company had delivered a record-breaking performance across revenues, profitability, and order wins. He added that a sharp focus on cash flow management had enabled a significant reduction in debt and interest costs. Kejriwal highlighted that multiple strategic wins across sectors had strengthened the order book, and with a healthy tender pipeline in place, KEC is well-positioned to sustain profitable growth in the coming quarters.

The Board of Directors recommended a final dividend of ₹5.50 per equity share for FY25, representing 275 percent of the face value of ₹2 per share, subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM.

KEC International operates across multiple infrastructure verticals including Power Transmission & Distribution, Civil, Railways, Renewables, Oil & Gas Pipelines, and Cables. With a presence in over 110 countries through its EPC projects and supply of towers and cables, the company continues to consolidate its position as one of India’s leading global infrastructure players.

Shares of KEC International reacted positively to the strong earnings print, opening at ₹895.95 on the BSE—up 4 percent from the previous close of ₹861.25—and rallying to an intraday high of ₹927, marking gains of over 7 percent.
