Performance Highlights for Q3FY23:

  • Revenue stood at Rs. 200.4 crore, up by 2.3%, as against Q3FY22 revenue of Rs. 195.9 crore. Continued low availability of semiconductors and other critical electronic components hampered revenue expansion and lowered capacity utilization. We anticipate a sharp revenue rebound in FY24 on account of robust orderbook and healthy order inflow, and on expectation that normalcy in supply chain will be restored

  • EBITDA stood at Rs. 20.5 crore, as against Rs. 20.9 crore of Q3FY22. Operating margins have remained subdued on account of higher raw material costs and lower capacity utilization

  • Profit After Tax was up by 41.6% at Rs. 11.6 crore for Q3FY23 against Rs. 8.2 crore in Q3FY22

Key Business Updates:

  • Order Book

  • In January 2023, we have received letter of awards (LOA) of Rs. 2,420.31 crore (net of taxes) for appointment of Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Provider (AMISP) including design of AMI system with supply, installation and commissioning of 29.49 Lakh Smart Prepaid Meters, DT Metering, HT & Feeder Metering Level energy accounting and FMS of these 29.49 Lakh smart meters

  • In April 2022, we received a letter of award (LOA) for appointment of Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Provider (AMISP) including design of AMI system with supply, installation and commissioning of about 10 Lakhs Smart Prepaid Meters, DT Meter level energy accounting and FMS of these smart meters from a state utility. The total order, worth Rs. 828.57 crore (net of taxes) , is the single largest order finalized by any state utility in India for AMISP

  • Many State Electricity Boards (SEBs) have issued requests and solicited bids for the installation of smart meters, indicating that the ‘Reforms-Based, Result-Linked Power Distribution Sector Scheme’ is having a tangible effect. The company anticipates robust order inflow in the coming quarters of FY24

  • As on 31[st] December 2022, our order book stood at Rs. 1,678 crore (net of taxes)

  • The total order book value including LOA received subsequent to quarter ended December 31, 2022, is Rs. 4,099 crore (net of taxes)

Commenting on the performance Mr. Jitendra Kumar Agarwal, Joint Managing Director, Genus Power Infrastructures said,

“We have recently received a huge order inflow for installation of 29.49 lakh smart prepaid meters, which will give lot of visibility to our revenues for coming years. It also signals a strong start to order inflow for our industry. We anticipate a sharp revenue rebound in coming quarters on account of robust orderbook and healthy order inflow, and restoration of normalcy in the supply chain.

In the current quarter, the supply chain issues for semiconductors continued to persist along with that of other essential electronic components. Inadequate capacity utilization led to subdued top-line growth and also had adverse impact on our operating margins.

The implementation of the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) will result in a radical transformation of the Indian metering industry, resulting in a projected multi-fold increase in annual industry size. This will also result in a shift in the Indian metering industry from conventional to smart meters, allowing for higher operating margins. The Indian metering industry will see strong order inflows, healthy topline growth, higher operating margins, and an improved working capital cycle beginning in FY24.

Allocation to the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) was doubled to Rs. 12,000 crore in 2023-24 Union Budget. The budget also ushered in a key measure for the financial health of states' distribution utilities by tying 0.5% of their deficit to power sector reforms, as an extension from last year. Continued fiscal support is an added incentive for the states to undertake power distribution reforms. These reforms will yield in the upgradation of the DISCOM network and metering, thereby curbing AT&C losses.

In comparison to conventional meters, the cost of smart meters can be anywhere from three to four times higher. In addition to that, they come packaged with a broad range of after-sales services. As a result of this, we anticipate a significant increase in revenue from smart meters, which typically have higher operating margins than traditional meters. All of this will, in the years to come, have the effect of reshaping the economic dynamics of the industry of smart meters in India.

We build everything in-house, from conceptualization, design, tools room, moulding machines, assembly lines, and test labs, so we can meet the highest industry standards. This is our most valuable USP because it allows us to customise products to meet our clients' metering needs in a timely and cost-effective manner. We have developed our service capabilities concurrently with our technological capabilities, as we offer end-to-end service solutions such as meter installation, meter maintenance, data analytics, and MDM solutions, etc. This gives us a significant competitive advantage over our competitors.

We have been in the electricity metering business for over two decades and currently have the largest market share in India, accounting for approximately 27%. We hope to re-establish our leadership position in the smart metering industry by building on our inherent strengths. As the largest player in the Indian metering sector, we are well positioned to benefit from the industry's multi-fold expansion.”
