Moderator
Thank you. The next question comes from Siddharth Shah from MK Ventures. Please go ahead.
Siddharth Shah
Yes, sir. Thank you for the opportunity. Sir, my question is on the overall bid pipeline. What kind of bid pipeline do you see across each of our segments, industrials, water segment, as well as the building and urban solutions? What kind of pipeline do we have to bid for next two years or something?
And out of that, what kind of order inflow guidance apart from whatever we have received till now, what kind of further orders are we expecting during the rest of this year as well as some guidance for order inflow for next year, sir?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Our pipeline is quite robust, especially in water wastewater and industrial solutions. There are quite a number of bids that are under the bidding process. The HAM model project requires intense workouts. We are very selective in our participation where we can add value as a company. We are expecting to see in the next quarter that some of the work that we have done in the past.

Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
We will update you on the sizable orders which are going to be secured in the next quarter. Our expansion in the international market, especially The Middle East and Africa we are now participating in many of these segments. Overall, we see a robust pipeline.
Siddharth Shah
But could you quantify the kind of pipeline that you'll be bidding for?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
It's quite number of projects which we are finalizing. The numbers are very difficult to provide, but anything in the range of billion dollar pipeline currently.
Siddharth Shah
And this will be bid out in next, say, six months to 12 months?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes. It's the next twelve months.
Siddharth Shah
Okay. And sir, on the industrial park segment, there are a lot of announcements from the government side also that they are coming out with industrial corridors and all. Any movement on that side, any large industrial park or industrial corridor that we are targeting or like we are optimistic about, which will come up in next one year?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
When it comes to industrial parks, we're one among the top companies in India who has established a very well pharma park in Andhra Pradesh, which is a role model for many, many states. We are in consultation with the many states, Maharashtra, Bihar, Telangana, Himachal, where we are in advanced discussion in Maharashtra for a pretty large life sciences park.
We expect to get these results probably in the coming quarters. So, as once we have formal decision that we will be communicating with you. Our idea is to, we always keep the 2.5x to 3x order that gives us a visibility of about 36 months. So, that's a model that we should follow.
Siddharth Shah
Okay, sir. Thank you. That's it from my side.

Dhananjay Mishra
What put to individually or say?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Average.
Dhananjay Mishra
Okay. And what is I mean, for next year, apart from these, in next six months, which segment you are expecting orders to be finalized where we have bidded?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
I think there are multiple segments we are working on. Water wastewater is one area that we expect. There's a 24x7 water supply scheme, which we are working on many projects and obviously on the industrial parks. These are three major areas, and we continue to have our additional work coming on the building segment. So, we maintain a balance.
Dhananjay Mishra
And lastly, any breakthrough we are expecting in the overseas market? Like we are trying to get some order.
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
We are quite advanced on some of the projects that we expect that would be in the next two quarters. I mean, we expect to see some results.

Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
Suraj Shinde
Yeah. Thank you for the opportunity. Sir, just a few basic questions on the industry front. As far as water sector is concerned, wanted to understand, Do you see any slowdown from the government end and in terms of tendering the new projects?
Sravanth Rayapudi
So, can you repeat the question, please?
Suraj Shinde
I wanted to understand, is there any slowdown you see as far as from the government aid while tendering the new projects in the water segment?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
No. I think it's on the contrary that there are quite a number of projects coming up on the water wastewater segment. We see quite a lot of interest from multiple states in India. I mean, so we don't see and we expect that to happen in the coming three, four quarters.
Suraj Shinde
Okay. second question on thatis, out of total projects under the water scheme, how many of them areHAM projects?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes. Quite a number of them are HAM models and there are EPC as well. I mean, so largely we are looking at the HAM model as our priority, but then we are also looking at EPCs on a selective basis.
Suraj Shinde
Okay. And any update that you want us to move towards higher tech-based projects like more, like, ZLD projects?
Sravanth Rayapudi
So, while the interest and while the opportunities are there, we are trying to bid for ZLD projects also. And apart from ZLD desalination plant projects also, company is identifying and getting those. We'll be sharing you the updates on what is the status of those tenders in Q4.
Suraj Shinde
Okay, sir. And I just missed on the few recent beginning question-and-answer session, so what is the bid pipeline currently? And what is the bid conversion ratio?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes, that's what I said that we have a large bid pipeline today that's crossing $1 billion. But we are very selective in our bidding process because it requires a lot of efforts in the
9
Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
upfront. So, you'll see a large percentage because we're very focused on our bids. So, I wouldn't be able to give you an exact percentage in terms of conversions.
Suraj Shinde
Okay, sir. Thank you. That's it from my end.
Moderator
Thank you. The next question comes from Premal Shah, an individual investor. Please go ahead.
Premal Shah
Yeah. Hi. Good evening, gentlemen. I have a specific question regarding the leadership strategy. Following the September 2025 appointment of Mr. Sunil Nair as the CEO and the new CFO, how will the leadership team reprioritize the growth strategies such as accelerating the EPC diversification or enhancing O&M capabilities?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes, I can take the call. My name is Sunil Nair. I'm the CEO. I have Sravanth, who is the CFO. Obviously, we have now put out our long-term plan and the short-term plan. We're prioritizing on segments, geographies, and the markets that we want to like to focus on. And so, there are markets that we want to get in. We already started that on the international markets. And from Indian domestic point of view, we have into various segments. Water wastewater is a priority, as I said. We're going to look at industrial park. That's going to be a large chunk of businesses that is going to come up in the next quarter.
So, we remain focused on delivering value through our expertise on the project execution and monitoring. And obviously, when it comes to investment projects, we're going to do effective debt and treasury management. In the whole process that today that we are going to enhance our entire leadership team as well as one of the key areas is supply-chain management as well.
Premal Shah
Thank you. That sums up what I wanted. Thank you very much.
Moderator
Thank you. The next question comes from Sudhir Bheda from Bheda Family Office. Please go ahead.
Sudhir Bheda
Hi. Good afternoon, sir. I just wanted to understand two, three things. As you guided just to the earlier question, your turnover for the current year would be INR 2,200 crore. Is it with the other income or without other income?
Sravanth Rayapudi
It's without other income.
10
Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
Sudhir Bheda
Great. because in the first six months, we have seen the decline in the turnover as well as the EBITDA on the absolute basis. What was the reason? And how do we see going forward for the second half and next year?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes. some of our large HAM projects have are in the last stage. And the new projects are picking up momentum. So this quarter, you would see a decline in revenues and profits because the new project, which is a large project, it's in the engineering stage, and we're going to pick up momentum in the next two quarters. So, you'll see a jump in the next two quarters.
Sudhir Bheda
Yes, that's helpful. And can you throw colour on other income? See, quarter after quarter, we have a large other income coming in. So, what is the nature of that income and is it sustainable going forward?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Other income is pertaining to the interests, which have been advanced to the group companies in the form of HAM model project. For HAM model projects, one. And second is pertaining to the scrap income, and third is pertaining to sale of fixed assets.
Sudhir Bheda
So is it sustainable, this kind of other income going forward?
Sravanth Rayapudi
The interest income interest income will be sustainable. Interest income is going to continue. Reason being some of our HAM model projects company is executing. It will be lending against the not interest free. It is interest bearing only. So, against the other income, it will sustain 75% to 80%.
Sudhir Bheda
Okay. Whatever you have reported in Q2, that is sustainable?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Yeah. Q2, we have reported 90% approximate other income. That 90% will continue.
Sudhir Bheda
Pardon? I just couldn't understand. 90% of that is sustainable?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Sustainable. Correct.

Moderator
Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, if you have any question, please press * and 1 on your telephone keypad.
Next question comes from Raja Sekar from Sai Padmaja Investments. Please go ahead.
Raja Sekar
Sunil Nair, sir, good evening. Welcome to Ramky Infra as a CEO. Under your leadership, we expect that you will take this to new heights, and this is a flagship company of Ramky Group. Sir, hello?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes.
Raja Sekar
Hello?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes.
Raja Sekar
So, sir, one thing is the like, we need the funding requirements are going to be massive considering the industrial part and water treatment plants built by the company, sir. Are we using our own funds? How these arrangements will be done by keeping debt equity ratio in check?
And second thing is, I think, sir, we have pending clients related to Srinagar Banihal Road. If it is not a problem, can you throw some light on that? And can you disclose some of the projects where we are L1? And thanks a lot, sir. Once again, welcome to Ramky Group, Sunil Nair, sir.
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Thank you, sir. Thank you very much. Obviously, from a financing point of view, now we are looking at innovative funding strategy. It's not the traditional banks that we're going to depend on. We are exploring many other funding strategies.
Probably, we're not in a position to disclose all of these things in this call. And I'm happy to provide you once we close these fundings. Typically, HAM projects are funded through 30:70 debt-equity, I mean, ratios. Our target is to bring in better financing terms so that the new projects which are getting awarded. There's a lot of traction from various investors in India and abroad, once we have clarity, we will be definitely disclosing this to the markets.
12
Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
And it coming to Srinagar Banihal, claims are, we are in an arbitration process. The arbitration process is expected in the next year. We hope to see results of that and we are hopeful that there's a substantial claim that which we have submitted would be aligned.
Raja Sekar
Can you please, roughly, tell how much amount it can be, sir, if it is no problem for you?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
No. I think it would be unfair for us to judge something in the court of law. I mean, we would expect that once we reach a conclusion on the arbitration award, we'll be in a position to disclose this.
Raja Sekar
Can we expect it to be a sizable amount, sir?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Sizable, it all depends. Considering the size and scale of the job, we would rank this as sizable.
Raja Sekar
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir. And sir, anything that you can comment on the projects which we became L1 by now, if it is no problem?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Again, sir, we have restrictions in terms of disclosing these numbers, but we are in a very advanced stage of discussion with some of the states. We hope that maybe in the next one month, we'll be able to disclose to the market the size and scale of these jobs.
Raja Sekar
Thank you, sir.

Thank you. The next question comes from Deepak Poddar from Sapphire Capital. Please go ahead.
Deepak Poddar
Am I audible, sir?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Yes, you are audible. Go ahead, please.
13
Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
Deepak Poddar
Yes. Thank you very much for this opportunity. So, just first of all clarification, I mean, you mentioned the order book breakup INR 9,200 crore. Out of that, around INR 2,700 crore was water and wastewater rate. So, what are the sizable, I mean, segmental order book was there? I missed that number.
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes. So, INR 2,700 crore today is that we have disclosed to the market is that one of the major Mallanna Sagar water supply scheme. That brings in 80%, 85% of the revenue in that segment.
Deepak Poddar
And what other major breakup would be there?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
The industrial is INR 4,000 crore. Building and construction is INR 2,000 crore. Urban solutions and others contributes to INR 500 crore.
Deepak Poddar
Building would be what? INR 200 crore or INR 2,000 crore?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Building is INR 2,000 crore.
Deepak Poddar
INR 2,000 crore. Okay. Yeah. And O&M is around total, among this, would be about INR 3,300 crore?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes. It's close to INR 4,000 crore to O&M, and EPC is INR 5,200 crore on the backlog.
Deepak Poddar
Understood. And I mean, you mentioned the big $1 billion of pipeline that we have. But by FY26 end, so what sort of order book closing we would like to have? Currently, which is around INR 9,200 crore?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Our lookout is to maintain a visibility of two years to three years gives us a confidence. So, 2.5x is the number that in terms of turnover, we'll always maintain. So, we would expect to clock maybe in the next year, close to INR 12,000 crore.
14
Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
Deepak Poddar
FY27?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes.
Deepak Poddar
So I mean, we are targeting INR 12,000 crore of order inflow for FY27. Would that be right understanding?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
No. I mean, cumulative, I'm saying is that currently, our backlog is INR 9,200 crore. So, we would be adding the balance the next year.
Deepak Poddar
Okay. So, FY26 and 12,000 crore will be order backlog that we might target.
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Correct, yes.
Deepak Poddar
Okay, understood. And in terms of margins that you mentioned, 21% to 22%, right, EBITDA margins?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes. That is the current bargain. We hope to maintain that EBITDA margins. Unlike any other infra companies, our balancing is above. We have a solid O&M margins and the CapEx margins. And then wherever we are doing the HAM projects, it's far more profitable than the typical EPC segment.
Deepak Poddar
Correct. But this 21 to 22% includes other income?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
It just includes other income.
Deepak Poddar
Come again?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Yes. It is included. That's included.
15
Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
Deepak Poddar
Including other income. But I mean, if I have to see first half, our average EBITDA margin including other income is close to about 32% to 33%. Right?
Sravanth Rayapudi
But this is at a consolidated level because of one annuity income, which has been considered in the Q1, it is 32%. But if you're looking at Q2, then it is around 29%.
Deepak Poddar
So, Q2 also, we are close to about 30%. I mean, 29.5%. That's what I can see, I mean, INR 140 crore is your EBITDA, right, including other income?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Correct.
Deepak Poddar
So but including other income, we are targeting on a sustainable basis 21% to 22%?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Correct. On a long term and a consolidated YoY basis, it is 21% to 22%.
Deepak Poddar
Okay. Sure. I think that would be from my side. All the very best to you. Thank you so much.
Moderator
Thank you. The next question comes from Shantanu Basu from SMIFS Limited. Please go ahead.
Shantanu Basu
Yes, hi. Thanks for the opportunity. I just want to know, I mean, most of my questions have been answered. So, I just have one question. That is with regard to the Visakha Pharmacity, which is being shown as asset for sale. So what's the progress on that one?
Sravanth Rayapudi
As of today, it is under discussion in terms of documentation sharing and also the due diligence process and also the additional prerequisites what company would like to complete it before the signing the SPA, which we are expecting before March the transaction concludes.
Shantanu Basu
That is March 2026?
16
Ramky Infrastructure Limited Q2 H1 FY26 Earnings Conference Call
19.11.2025
Sravanth Rayapudi
Yes.
Shantanu Basu
And so the buyer has been identified. Right?
Sravanth Rayapudi
The buyer has been identified. Yes.
Shantanu Basu
Fine. And any reason just I mean why there was a huge quarterly drop in margin and revenue as well? I mean a drop in revenue and margin as well in this Q2, basically in YoY?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Margins in terms of absolute number, it is dropped, but the profitability percentages are remaining as is in compared to the previous quarter.
Shantanu Basu
No. If I exclude the other income, then obviously, your margin dropped from 24.4% in Q2 FY25 to 17.54% in Q2 FY26. Okay? If I exclude the other income, so why did this happen?
Sravanth Rayapudi
In the previous quarters, there is a project which related to some which have been completed. And for the current quarters, what we have planned for execution is pushed it into the next quarters, Q3 and Q4.
Shantanu Basu
But I mean, that is with regard to revenue, you can postpone the revenue, but why did the margins drop?
Sravanth Rayapudi
In terms of margins as well, HAM model projects, whatever we have executed previous quarters, those have been completed in the current quarters. So, those incomes, what we have recognized in Q2 FY24-FY25 is no longer there in Q2 FY25-FY26.
Shantanu Basu
Okay. So, these are essentially lower margins for this, correct?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Correct.

Thank you. The next question comes from Karthikeyan VK from Suyash Advisors. Please go ahead.
Karthikeyan VK
Good afternoon. Thanks for the opportunity. A couple of clarifications. One, Mr. Sunil, can you clarify or rather share your thoughts on your international aspirations, A, in terms of your right to win and in terms of your ambition, both please?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes. International is a quite large word, but currently our focus is on Middle-East and Africa. And largely these projects are water, wastewater related projects where which is on an IPP model. I mean, they call it in that part of the world, IWP. PPs on water, it could be water transmission. It could be sewage treatment, waste treatment, transmissions, and desalinations. These are the projects in terms of water wastewater.
And obviously, we're very successful in India to building up an industrial park. We would like to replicate these kind of models in The Middle East and Africa where we have a strong traction today. So, these are the two major areas that we are looking at currently in the international market.
Karthikeyan VK
Sorry, can you clarify what you mean by strong traction? You mean from the demand perspective, you mean, right?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes. I see because these are projects which are not tendered out, where we work with the state, educate them, we prepare the plans, we provide. So, then it comes typically as come out as an RFQ. So, there's quite a lot of work has been done in the last two years. So, we will see that the projects are coming up in in the coming years.
Karthikeyan VK
So, these would typically be negotiated rather than tendered. That's what I'm taking.
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Some of them would tender out, some of them are negotiated.

Karthikeyan VK
Sure. The other question, just to understand the way the business is being structured, I see that there are a lot of large sized orders. So, the one that you recently announced is a INR 2,000 crore plus project, two other projects where you are L1 are from what I heard in the early part of the call, was INR 2,000 crore reach.
So I mean, as the Managing Director, how do you think about working with large projects? So, the withdrawal of each project would result in a certain vacuum. So, it creates its own set of challenges. So, how do you think about balancing your portfolio with a combination of, say, reasonable sized projects versus very large ones? Some thoughts on that would be interesting.
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Sure. We have a very strong risk management initiative when we've been bidding. We've been on these projects for the last couple of years working, understanding the legal hassles, understanding contractual financing terms. So, quite a lot of efforts have been gone in. There is a de-risking strategy on every project today, what we at every stage of the project.
So, all of these factors have gone into building our proposals. And today, we are quite confident that the one which we have in hand has picked up quite a large momentum where we know how to manage the contracts in terms of legal, in terms of financing. So it's holistically, we looked at these projects and we got quite confident that we can manage the size and scale of this job.
Karthikeyan VK
And you execute these in-house, I'm assuming?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Most of the works are executed in-house. Special expertise has been hired. But from an engineering value, engineering point of view, detailed engineering point of view, we bring in a quite a lot of value. And our execution team on the ground has also a lot of capability in terms of executing. That is where the differentiator we have compared to the other. We do a lot of jobs in-house wherein we are able to control the CapEx and the timeline and the OpEx.
Karthikeyan VK
One last clarification, sir, and I'll get back in the queue. The two projects where you said you are L1, are those hands or are those under the EPC structure?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
No. One is basically a build-on operate model and the other one is an EPC model.
Karthikeyan VK
Okay. Thank you. Best wishes.

Thank you. We have a follow-up question from Darmesh Pancholi from Shrika Securities. Please go ahead. I repeat, question comes from Darmesh. Please go ahead, sir. There is no response.
The next follow-up question from Raja Sekar from Sai Padmaja Investments. Please go ahead.
Raja Sekar
Sunil Nair sir, one request as an investor from our side would be we are expecting dividend from the company, which we request you to announce in this financial year.
Sravanth Rayapudi
Thank you for sharing your interest and request. We will review this internally, including the Company’s dividend policy, the upcoming project pipeline, and the necessary board approvals. Once we complete our internal evaluation, we will revert to you
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
I think we have a very strong intent going forward to declare dividends in the coming years.
Raja Sekar
And one more small suggestion, sir. Frankly, ours is a technical infra company, not like laying roads or, like, we are into wastewater management, industrial park. And actually, first name would be fine, Ramky as this is a flagship company. Can you rename the company which reflects like a technical infra company? Just a suggestion, sir, whether it is possible or not. That's just a request because we are a technical infra company, not like routine people who lay roads and all these. Just a suggestion. Thank you.
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
I think I think it's a very good suggestion, and then we tell the work in progress on that. We are redoing complete the branding and on our way forward. I think you would see in the next coming quarters our proposals.
Raja Sekar
Thank you.

Thank you. The next question comes from Vipulkumar Shah from Sumangal Investments. Please go ahead.
Vipulkumar Shah
Hi sir, thanks for the opportunity. I hope this tradition of organizing con call is continued for subsequent quarters also. So, my question is regarding Ramky City. So, what is the status of this project? If I remember correctly, that asset was attached by ED. So, that has been released and have we put it for sale? So what is the status? What we are going to do with that asset?

Sravanth Rayapudi
So currently, it is not yet released.
Vipulkumar Shah
Okay.
Sravanth Rayapudi
But the current position is the high court as the position in state. It is not held for sale now, but it is set aside.
Vipulkumar Shah
No. I didn't understand. So, you said it is not released means you cannot sell it, no, unless it is released?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Correct. The 240 acres (saleable), whatever has been attached.
Vipulkumar Shah
But we hope it to be released over next?
Sravanth Rayapudi
We are expecting, but since this is the timeline switch, it is attached with the code, we're just looking at how fast we can do that.
Vipulkumar Shah
So, what is our capital investment in that asset, sir?
Sravanth Rayapudi
No. I did not get you. Can you repeat the question, please?
Vipulkumar Shah
What is the amount we have invested in that asset?
Sravanth Rayapudi
Sir, it is a part of our overall investment. So, this 240 acres is a part of the total 2,500 acres asset. So, there is no specific investment for specific this 240 acres. Overall past development, we have done initially from 2005 to 2013. That investment is gone into for this 240 acres also.
Vipulkumar Shah
So out of 2,500, only 240 acres is attached. Is that understanding correct?

Sorry to interrupt you, Mr. Kumar, can you join back the queue, sir?
Vipulkumar Shah
Thank you.

Thank you. We have a follow-up question from Darmesh Pancholi from Shrika Securities. Please go ahead.
Darmesh Pancholi
Hello, sir. I have follow-up questions on the numbers that, I mean, we spoke earlier, the INR 1,600 crore is what we are expecting coming two quarters. And rest INR 7,600 crore out of INR 9,200 crore order book that we are having, we are expecting it to close in coming two years. So next year, INR 3,600 crore and after the INR 3,600 crore, is that the correct understanding of mine?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
There could be a slight higher up number in the next quarter because one of these water wastewater projects we have to complete in the FY26-FY27 there because we are accelerating that project. So, there could be a slight jump in FY26-FY27 beyond INR 3,600 crore. We are looking beyond that number.
Darmesh Pancholi
Okay. Coming to the EBITDA margin that we remain constant on the EBITDA margin of 21% to 22%. So, EBITDA will be what INR 800-crore plus in that scenario next year?
Sunil Sukumaran Nair
Yes.
Darmesh Pancholi
And this year itself, if we are talking about INR 1,600 crore, 20% over there, INR 320 crore, plus till now we have INR 150 crore, so INR 320 crore plus INR 100 crore, INR 420 crore. So, around INR 500-odd crore, are expecting this year itself.
