DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,
As we stand at the intersection of legacy and future, I'm privileged to share this moment with you at the 65th Annual General Meeting of Elecon Engineering Company Limited. Your participation today, despite the virtual format, speaks the trust and confidence you place in the Company — a trust that has guided Elecon through decades of innovation, resilience, and growth. We look forward to sharing our journey with you today and engaging in a meaningful dialogue as we shape Elecon's promising future together.
LET ME GIVE AN OVERVIEW OF THE ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
The global economy entered 2025 showing signs of cautious stabilization, following years of disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing geopolitical volatility. Inflation has begun to moderate, and labour markets are gradually returning to pre-pandemic levels. Global GDP growth has been stable around 3% in recent years.
However, fresh concerns have surfaced - primarily driven by renewed trade tensions and policy uncertainty. Although a large-scale tariff war has been temporarily averted, the threat remains. If enacted, these measures could push global tariff rates to their highest levels in a century, impacting trade and slowing growth at a time when the global economy is just beginning to recover.
Amidst this global uncertainty, India remains a beacon of resilience and growth. The IMF projects India to retain its position as the fastest-growing major economy, with GDP growth of 6.2% in 2025 and 6.3% in 2026. A stable policy environment, strong domestic demand, easing inflation, and increasing investments have contributed to this positive outlook.
India has adeptly navigated global disruptions and continues to outperform, supported by its relative insulation from external shocks and the effectiveness of proactive policy interventions.
INDUSTRY OUTLOOK
India's capital goods sector continues to play a critical role in the nation's industrial and infrastructure ambitions. Policies like the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and the “Make in India” initiative have significantly enhanced domestic manufacturing capabilities.
In particular, the Industrial gearbox market is witnessing sustained growth, fueled by automation, technological innovation, and demand from heavy industries such as construction, mining, and energy. Gearboxes are crucial for high-precision, high-efficiency operations across a range of industrial applications.
India's power sector is expanding rapidly, driven by rising electricity demand and large-scale capacity additions in coalbased power plants—creating strong business opportunities for Elecon. Similarly, India's steel and cement sectors are expected to see robust growth, supported by government-led infrastructure initiatives like the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana and Gati Shakti Master Plan.
After facing headwinds in 2024, the cement industry is poised for a rebound with 43–45 million tons of capacity expected to be added in FY 2025-26. Meanwhile, steel demand is projected to grow by 8–9% in 2025, placing India among the fastestgrowing steel markets globally.
– - COMPANY PERFORMANCE FY 2024 25 HIGHLIGHTS
FY 2024-25 has been an exceptional year for Elecon. Despite a subdued start due to elections and global uncertainties, we delivered our highest-ever Revenue, EBITDA and PAT - a
testament to our strategic focus and operational strength. FY 2024-25 closed with a consolidated revenue of 2,227 crores (grew by 14.9%), EBITDA of 543 crores (grew by 14.4%), and PAT of 415 crores (grew by 16.7%) while **Order intake** reached 2,380 crores, grew by 19.4% Year over Year.
These achievements led by prudent cost management efforts and a focus on operational efficiencies. Our consistent focus on innovation, automation, and digitalization are also continuing to play a crucial role in boosting productivity. Strategic investments in people and processes have strengthened our ability to respond swiftly to market dynamics.
In the Gear Division , we saw a robust recovery in H2FY25, closing the year with 5.6% growth. Strong demand in the power, steel, and cement sectors, along with growing spreads in export markets, bolstered this performance. Our OEM partnerships continue to drive solid international traction.
The MHE Division saw an outstanding 72.8% YoY growth, driven by our strategic shift toward product supply and aftermarket services. We enter FY 2025-26 with a healthy order pipeline and strong momentum.
As of today; Gear Division unexecuted order booking stands at 708 crores while MHE Division unexecuted order booking stands at 432 crores.
We are expanding our presence across new sectors & geography towards our long-term strategic goal of achieving a balanced contribution from international markets to our consolidated revenue by FY 2029-30. Domestically, we will maintain our leadership through continuous product innovation and a sharp focus on customer value. Our strong order book, proactive client engagement, increasing demand for material handling equipment and focus on customized, high-quality engineering solutions provide a solid platform for growth.
FY 2024-25 has validated the resilience of our business model and as we move into FY 2025-26, we do so with renewed confidence, supported by a clear strategy and robust execution framework.
SUSTAINABILITY & SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Sustainability continues to be a central pillar of our strategy. This year, we achieved a major milestone with the approval of our near-term targets from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) , reaffirming our alignment with global climate goals.
These goals reflect our deep-rooted commitment to sustainability and our proactive steps to transition to renewable energy sources and reduce our carbon footprint across the value chain.
Equally important is our commitment to society. From education scholarships to community engagement and family support programs, Elecon continues to invest in inclusive development. Our vision goes beyond financial performance - to building a better, more equitable future.
DIVIDEND
In recognition of our strong financial performance and in line with our commitment to shareholder value creation; The Board has declared and paid an Interim Dividend of 0.50/- (i.e. 50%) per Equity Share of 1/- each. The Board has recommended a Final Dividend of 1.50/- (i.e. 150%) per Equity Share of 1/- each for the financial year ended on March 31, 2025. Total Dividend for FY 2024-25 stands at **2/per** Equity Share of face value 1/- each, compared to ` 1.50/per Equity Share last year.
OUTLOOK
While global uncertainties persist, India offers a stable and
promising environment for industrial growth. Elecon will remain focused on maintaining domestic market leadership while accelerating its global expansion.
We will continue to invest in R&D, innovation, and technology, enhance operational efficiencies, diversify our market footprint and strengthen partnerships in both domestic and international markets.
