Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining the FinPortal
On today's webinar, Mr. Girish Deshmukh, CFO of Univastu India Limited, will present the presentation.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: So, so let's start now, so, basically,we have a company overview, the structure of this presentation is a company overview, then how we place ourselves in the entire scenario, and what kind of forward-looking, say, I mean, the work order list, and what kind of forward-looking statements we have in place, currently.
So, so let's proceed. These are some of the technical things I… Absolutely. So, Univastu basically is a leading, infrastructure and seamless construction company. As has been explained to you earlier, we are, tech… I mean, our focus is on technology, Based improvements in the infrastructure segment.
Mainly the BMS, the Building Management System, and net zero signal structures. Net zero, we all know, is, no carbon footprint, in… while we are undertaking some constructions, or even during its operational phase. So, we have… Total workforce of about… Currently, 100. And, a lot of plant machinery that is required, which is owned by Univastu. We have presence, in… in, you know, actually in most… the northern, side of India, the western side, and we are also targeting some, projects in the southern side.

More importantly, because of our association with, this, A&T Europe the Myrtha Pools, which is commonly known. We have expanded our area, geographical area, even to Meghalaya and, I mean, the northeastern parts, which is actually a significant. You know, improvement in the coverage of the entire country. We obviously have, the certifications that are mandatory required for, You know, who…These are all controlrelated ISO 9000, 14001, And So, we have a certification from CIDCO, and PWD Madhya Pradesh license from, the, Directorate of Maharashtra Fire Service, because we undertake the civil construction, the electrical management part of it and so… so we have a wide range of various certifications in place.
Moving forward, these are some of the projects that we have completed. So, the elevated metro station, in Navi Mumbai, Cargo line, is what we,We have almost completed that project. And, the… and currently, In Goa, indoor sports complex. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Stadium, Jhansi Pustakalay, swimming pool in Goa, 100-bed hospital in Pune, in the mostly locality. So, these are some of the main projects that we, have completed. Just a second…And in the ongoing projects,we currently have the Divisional Sports Complex Jalgaon. This is the new project that has been awarded to us.In the current year, and the work is in full swing. And I think we'll be completing the project in the the timelines, before the timelines that have been sanctioned by the tendering department. Then, similarly, we have the district sports complex in Baramati, the, which is also a new project. Flower Trading Center, is actually an old project, but it's near to completion the approximate completion date would be May 2026.
Coming here. Gita Museum Jyotisar, International Habitat Center, these are all, north, North Indian, projects. International Habitat Center in Haryana, Lete Hanumanji mandir. Again, in Haryana, and then MEP and BMS Metro projects. These are the projects that, so recently, in the last week, we have received one order from, L&T. It's about 390 crore, order that we have received.
It is, it is mainly for MEP. Looking at the progress that we have been able to do in, You know, in our completed metro projects. Like we were earlier saying, that the projects…the BMS technology that we have installed in those projects. So, based on those achievements. This particular project has been awarded to us.
Drishti, there is some problem with this slide, actually. It's getting stuck somewhere.
Yeah. So, the journey of Univastu has started in 2009. Our MD, who is a civil engineer himself. he, he… I mean, his vision… So this, the growth that we can see. So, in 2000, because of the COVID impacts, actually, we, we…We had to, you know, actually curtail our operations significantly. But after that. So, that's… that's about 11 years, from the starting, that is 2009 and thereafter, if you look at the progress after COVID, I mean, the metro projects that were structured, so those were revived, and recently, looking at our order book, which we'll see further in the next slides.
So, there has been a tremendous, improvement in the revenues, in the profitability of this, entity. And, the…order book and orders in pipeline. That is a very significant and, major improvement, I'll say, which we can… foresee in 2026, 27 and 28. And, the momentum will keep, I mean, our MD is very keen and focused on ensuring that the momentum, is in place. So, in 2024, or 23-24, post-COVID, the projects of the North, like Jhansi, in Haryana, in Jhansi. So these projects actually were, initiated in 2023-24.
And, and actually, we can now see the results, so the learning that we have generated in those projects that we can now, put to use the leverage that we have because of those completed projects. The company was initially, formed as a private limited company.

In 2016-17, this company, done the listing. And, it got listed on NSE EMERGE platform initially. Now it has, shifted to the main platform of NSE. We… we plan to, I mean, we have that vision to this… this organization on BSE also, so you can see, in the next few slides, our standalone financials, network. So looking at the business plan that we have in a couple of years' time, I think we should be able to list on BSE As well. Moving to the next slide.
Yeah. So, very effective management, because of which, this growth has been possible, our MD, himself is, is very, you know…thoroughly… thorough civil engineer, we can say. This is first generation, organization and, initiative. So, he himself is a civil engineer from Mumbai University, and holds about 20 years of experience. Hmm… So… Univastu is his dream. And, we can now see, even after the major COVID setback, the company's growth momentum, is… is…It's fantastic, I can see. He is supported by a very… experienced board member. Narendra Bhagatkar, he's the executive director. He has,35 years plus experience in military engineering.
Similarly, Major General, Dr. Vijay Pawar. He also has a 41 plus years of experience in military service. He retired as a Major General, and he looks after the, the safety… aspects in wherever, actually, our projects are going on, a safety team is there who reports to him, and in general, we ensure that the… safe man hours increase. So, so he's very, dedicated person towards… I mean, why should I say anything about him? But he's a dedicated person looking after the safety, aspects of Univastu. Dr. CA Dhananjay Barve, he's an independent director. He basically has a practice of his own, and about 40 years of experience, postqualification experience. He's an independent director, and obviously he looks after the financial aspects of |Univastu to ensure that whatever reporting happens, happens according to the given framework.
Mr. Rajiv Kapok, he's an independent director as well. He has 17 plus years' experience in business leadership and networking and he has expertise in multinational companies. Mrs. Rajashri Khandagale is a non-executive director. She has been associated, obviously, with Univastu since its inception. She looks after the company administration, management practices, and, operational oversights.
The core team, if we talk about, Mr. Vidya Sagar, he is the Vice President of Contracts. He has about 38 years of experience in the same field. And he has been, with Univastu since inception. Mr. Rajesh, for today, he is General Manager of Projects, the various certificates that we have received from CIDCO Or MMRCL. So, his contribution is immense in, execution of these projects. According to the… You know, expectations laid down by the clients. So he's… he is also a civil engineer with, more than 17 years of experience.
Mr. Uday Lidbide, he is General Manager, MEP, So, he has got 38 years of experience, and I mean, as far as the electrical part of any building management is concerned. He is a very key person in this, category.
Prashant Akashe, he is the General Manager, and he has been associated with Univastu since inception. He has about 19 years of experience in the same sector. Santosh, Mr. Santosh Gandhi, he is a very senior architect. He has been also associated with Univastu since a very long time. And, although the architectural designs, It… in some… in most of the cases, come from the client side, but we also have an expert In-house, to ensure that there are no, you know, Risks in the entire construction process. So, as far as the future outlook, we discussed earlier, So, until…So, we were into construction. Eventually, the… The… wireless BMS that we have projects, in our, metro projects.Drishti, am I audible?

Finportal: Yes, sir, yes, sir, you are audible.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: So…So, with that in… in… in the vision of our MD, we are now going to focus on, growth of Univastu, not only in the infrastructure segment, but also in a variety of areas, like, you know, wireless BMS. It's a very unique concept. In India, although BMS is not new, the wireless BMS is, something that we have successfully implemented in our metro, Mumbai metro projects. So, and then with, with our tieup with A&T, or A&T Europe. It's an Italian company, and its products go by the name of Myrtha Pools. Myrtha pools. Myrtha pools basically is, the only…you know, only entity which caters to Olympic-level swimming pools and, looking at the 2036 Olympics, and also the 2030 Ahmedabad sports, schedules, we have, tied up with, with A&T Europe, And, we are the…You know, exclusive partner pan-India, partner for, in A&T Europe. So, wherever the swimming pools high-quality swimming pools will be installed. They will be done by Univastu. With the help from A&T Europe. So, you know, actually the focus is not only on doing business, but it is also on ensuring the quality then there are, you know, actually, as I said, actually, the Commonwealth Games, the Olympic Games, Commonwealth Games, actually, in 2013. And, we are also eyeing for… I mean, India is eyeing for the Olympic Games, hosting of Olympic Games in 2036. So that is where, actually, all this, planning is coming into. Geographical diversification, as we discussed earlier, So, in Maharashtra, we have the presence, but we now have, orders from, for the high-speed metro train, electrical… electrical work from L&T in Gujarat.
In Madhya Pradesh, we have, we have entered into, you know, actually the northern part of India, in 2023, 24 itself. Recently, since we are talking about the future outlook, very recently we have signed in… signed one MOU with, Urban Systems. This is a Swedish company, and this is, you know, actually having… this has an expertise in data center. Developing the data centers. Currently, as we all know, the…demand for data centers in, you know, is going to increase rapidly. So, with that in…in our vision, we have, done a type. This is a very big, actually, Excellent. you know, a vision, that our MD has.And, we all are committed to ensuring that whatever collaborations we do, Based on the basic experience that we have. You will be able to complete this. This actually is a recently signed MOU. It has a tenure of 2 years, so we look forward to, you know, actually getting some data construction orders from Lagore, Maharashtra, data center policy is in place.
And obviously, the net zero projects, as we said, actually in, northern side of… northern state, northern states of India, we implemented, the net zero thing, net zero, so basically, net zero is the, carbon emission little carbon emission, actually. The buildings should be sustainable. The electricity generation, or the… You know…Reuse of the water So all, all this, actually, to… To reduce the dependence on. On, the natural resources. That is the objective. We will be looking for, you know, going… entering into the net zero projects going ahead.
Yeah, so, as we discussed. Univastu has got, has got various tie-ups. I mean, one example is the, the vision that we had in 2022-23. So, we set up a…partnership with one of the companies, for catering to the northern states, for specifically the net zero. Similarly, we have now entered into, you know… We have formed a company called Univastu Nuos IoT Systems Private Limited. So, this is, as we discussed earlier. So, it is not only about the future vision, we have taken certain steps.
To ensure that that vision, satisfies. So… That this newly formed company is basically, having an expertise in and wireless BMS, if we see, it is as good as, like, we have a wireless system here, so that wireless building management system is a very unique concept that we are, We are now actually going to implement

in various projects from L&T and… or any government… direct projects from government. We have, recently received, one order from Ahmedabad for the Commonwealth Game Swimming Pool.
So, we have a tenure of about 12 months to complete that. We have also entered into, A company… recently, we have had a board meeting, had a board meeting to approve the formation of an associate formation of a company. It is actually a company with Valecha. So, Univastu will be having 49% stake in that company, and it is a tunnel So that company will… has got projects in tunnel infrastructure, so wherever tunnels are to be you know, constructed. So, Univastu will have a role to play. In that, and… And we see a bright future over there, because there are a lot of projects. Ongoing prediction… As far as this, segment is concerned. So… As we have been discussing about the net zero thing, so… So…the Prime Minister's vision of, no car… no carbon emission. So I think, we… we have been, working on those vision, statements of the Prime Minister as well, and that is why this, net zero… project. Is what we are looking into. So, as…
Drishti, you are still able to see the screen, no? The presentation?
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Yes.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Okay.
Finportal: The optimistic industry outflow.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yay.

Will it be okay, sir?
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Yes.

Mr. Girish Deshmukh: So, these are the industry growth engines that we have. I think this is, what you have a vision for. So, looking at the industry patterns, And our expertise in various, segments, I think we are focusing to…I mean, as you have been constantly telling, that you have been working on, this particular aspect, even if it's a vision, you have already been working on these areas since…quite a long time, and that is why, actually, we are now able to see…you know, the order from LNT of 300 plus crores.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Next.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: So, I think this is the same thing that we were discussing earlier, pioneering in netzero energy construction. Again, in line with what Our Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, has been…Visioning, and visioning for our, no carbon footprint, or the entire country. We have already discussed this. Yeah, so again, revolutionizing metro rail operations with India's first IoT-enabled BMS. So, basically, wireless BMS is what we, I mean, it's actually, I can say, a new invention, right, sir? This is a new invention.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Wireless BMS is the new… Wireless BMS is the first wireless BMS in the world, and we completely install the BMS system without wire on the.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yeah, without wire.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Yeah. And it's completely IoT-enabled.Next slide.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yeah, strategy is to unlock the next phase of, success. So again, I think this is, we are talking of net zero and recycling projects. So this is what we will be looking for.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: So our main focus is on sustainability, digital transformation, PPP with the government, and… Cost implementation. Our main feature is with the data center, Metro BMS, E&M, OHE projects, and the Net zero projects, including the sports infrastructure. Next slide.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yeah, so this is the order book. Pradeep sir, we have not been able to add the recently received.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: It's okay. Currently, we have a very healthy order book of 1053 crore. All orders are in place, and the work already started.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: And, also, just, I would like to highlight that, there is another project that we have recently, received. It is the swimming pool Myrtha Pool Construction in Ahmedabad province Commonwealth.

Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yeah, on Saturday, late, I think, evening, we have received that vote order.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Yeah.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yeah, the strategic acquisition and collaboration that we were discussing earlier.

Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: So, we acquired two companies in Univastu. One is Open Luxury Time Products Limited. It is the first luxury, wall clock of India. And we acquired this company because the company has, good dealer network in Pan-India. And the second company we acquired is Setubandhan Infrastructure Limited. The COC bank already, ordered with us, and the initial order is pending in the favor of us. In Setubandhan, there is a… big order of the bio-mining, projects, and it's a complete waste processing management Project. Next.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yeah. So, we have already discussed about Univastu Bootes Infra LLP, so… Basically, the North Indian states that we are catering to is, Oh. you know, this is the firm, Univastu Bootes Infra LLP, which is operational in the North Indian states. This is basically a limited liability partnership between Univastu India Limited, holding 51% share of profit. And, Bootes Impex, which holds 49% share of profits. We also discussed about the BMS thing, and that we have… we are the pioneers. So, with that in view, Univastu Nuos IoT systems, has been formed. Here, Univastu holds 51% stake. And, another company, Falcon, holds 49% stake in this. So… Basically, this is the statewise revenue that we have for the September 25 quarter. And half year. So, obviously, in Maharashtra currently, since we have So, yes, sir?
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: After the September quarter, two states were added. One is Meghalaya, and one is Gujarat.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yes.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Yes. Next.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Operational highlights. So, because of the new projects that we have in hand. As we discussed earlier, the Jalgaon Sports Complex, there are Sports Complex. So… and the swimming pool that we have orders we have in place, so we can see…A significant growth in our revenues in half year of FY26, as compared to half year of FY25. Similarly, the EBITDA margins And, PAT margins have increased significantly. Quarterly performance also, we can see, quarter one and quarter two. Quarter 2 showing a significant growth, because, the projects that has started, we have started working on the new project. So that will gain momentum as, we reach March 2026. We are very much hopeful of, Achieving a very great result for March 2026, as compared to March 2025, so even stand-alone as well as consolidated basis. As we discussed, while discussing the current slide, financial growth momentum, financial and growth momentum, actually, we have seen the order book of, 1053 CR, and Most of those orders actually are under active, execution. So…So basically, this current order book exceeds 630 crores. This needs to be updated, because 390 crore L&T order was also received in the last week, so I think this will… this has to be in sync with that 1053 core. We have…You know, actually, apart from whatever we have in hand, we also have a future order pipeline, active participation in upcoming tenders, worth 500 crore. For 2026 and 27. So… Revenue, outlook, as discussed, we are targeting a robust revenue growth in, in HY2 of, 25-26 financial year. Basically, this is because of the, you know, the projects that are being executed in full swing. That will help us see better, revenues, top line, and even the bottom line. Again, our focus is on tech driven EPC expansion. MEP… So, BMS… Well, your… the Myrtha Pools thing, safety record we already discussed while, discussing… I mean, while I was…introducing, Major General Dr. Vijay Pawar, as an independent director. So…We… we… we have, actually, a…You know, actually, safety excellence mandate from, the… from the…board of directors and, we function, there are trainings conducted on a regular basis at the site to ensure that, there are… No accidents at the workplace. So, we have a robust growth, as we have seen. This is a

Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Could… will the management explain the strategic relay. That's from there.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: If you can fully convertible warrants to the…The reason of the warrant is, Univastu not wants to raise the more debt on the company. That's why a promoter is investing money in the company. And the post-conversion, promoter stake will, increase around 4%.

Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yeah, because as, I mean, we discussed earlier the new company that we have recently formed. Univastu NUOS IoT Systems Private Limited.

Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: We increased the bank guarantee limit in this quarter, and we have both the options to increase the debt or the bank guarantee, and the requirement of bank guarantee is high.

Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: No, will Swedish company do design? Yes, Swedish company will do the all design part. Swedish company is expert in designing net-zero data centers.

Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: I have no idea about the bootes IPO or the bootes operations.
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: What is the JV? Is it a JV? So…
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: No, we don't, understand the question, so I'll keep quiet.

Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Huh.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Mr. Pritesh, if your question is related to this, data center, yes, it will be a JV, it will be a JV. There is not a pay-per-contract basis, it will be a long-term JV.
Finportal: Okay, sir, as there are no further questions opened in the Q&A.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Again, the repeat. We signed an MOU with the Swedish company for development, design, integration, and execution of data center in India. We draft all our terms, what's the role of the Swedish company, what's the role of the Univastu, and once the financial closure and the agreement took place, depending on the financial closure, the percentage of the JV will be finalized.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Thank you, Pritesh.

Finportal: Yeah, okay.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Again, four questions are there, I think so. No.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: If there is no question, then we will close.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: Why our Trade payable. Girish, will you please answer this?
Mr. Girish Deshmukh: Yes, yes. So, basically what happens is, we follow this mechanism of, Percentage of completion method. So, and since we have already discussed that we… the… I mean, majority of the projects that we have received in the current year are under active consideration. So, what happens is, So, as on 30th of September. As we discussed earlier, the Jalgaon project, the Karad project, and the swimming pool-related projects. So, so these were being actively executed. So, there… there obviously is a cash flow mismatch. So, the Trade payable that appear to be higher on a particular balance sheet date, so, maybe in the next month. No, it has happened, I can say, but just as an example, I'm saying that these are getting converted into our cash flows, like, we have unbilled revenue, which got converted into our cash inflow. Similarly, the trade payables, they have got converted into our cash outflow. So, as on a particular date, obviously, it appears as though there are higher trade payables. But eventually, this is a, you know, revolving scenario on a day-today basis. So, as such, actually, I can say that the trade payables are not higher. We take the provision, Trade payables includes also the approvals of various expenses that we take. So, similarly to the revenue side, we have a payable side. And we have shown them under current, because they were to be paid in the next Month or in the current quarter, December end quarter.
Mr. Pradeep Khandagale: There is no question answers.

Finportal: Yes, so there are no further questions open in the Q&A, so we can do the closing remarks, sir.
Finportal: So, on behalf of Finportal Investment, I would like to express our gratitude to Mr. Pradeep sir and the entire team at Univastu India for taking the time to join us and provide us such detailed responses to the questions.
