+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Expansion Rationale & Capital Allocation Details

  • Capacity Constraints: The existing Extra High Voltage Gas Insulated Switchgear (EHV GIS) facility operates at 91% capacity utilization (FY26 baseline). Physical constraints across shop floors, assembly bays, testing facilities, and storage limit additional equipment integration.

  • Projected Scope: The approved project adds capacity in Vilholi, Nashik, raising existing output from 228 Equivalent Units to a projected peak capacity of 600 Equivalent Units by FY30.

  • Project Cost & Timeline: Estimated project outlay is ₹35.17 crore (net of taxes), funded via internal accruals/equity. Execution is slated for completion within 4 to 6 months.

  • Greenfield Transition: Approximately 87% of the brownfield assets established during this interim project are expected to transfer to a larger planned Greenfield facility once commissioned.

Balance Sheet & Capital Utilization

Asset distribution across operational segments reflects capital allocation toward power systems expansion and technology developments.
