💰 Financial Performance

Revenue Growth by Segment

Total revenue from operations grew by 42.17% YoY, reaching INR 100.97 Cr in FY25 compared to INR 71.02 Cr in FY24. In H1 FY26, revenue reached INR 53.63 Cr, a 23.44% increase over H1 FY25 (INR 43.92 Cr). Export revenue grew 42.76% YoY to INR 61.75 Cr in FY25, while domestic revenue accounted for the remainder.

Geographic Revenue Split

In H1 FY26, the revenue split was 56% Exports and 44% Domestic. Europe remains the major revenue contributor for exports, while the USA is currently a smaller component. Russia and CIS countries have seen a surge in demand due to trade restrictions resulting from the Russia-Ukraine war.

Profitability Margins

Net Profit margin improved from 13.88% in FY24 to 15.76% in FY25. Profit Before Tax (PBT) for FY25 was INR 21.27 Cr, a 57.08% increase from INR 13.54 Cr in FY24. H1 FY26 PBT stood at INR 8.67 Cr, representing 15.70% of total revenue.

EBITDA Margin

Operating Profit (EBITDA) margin was 21.06% in FY25, up from 19.06% in FY24. However, H1 FY26 EBITDA margins came under pressure, dropping to 20% compared to 23% in H1 FY25, primarily due to changing geo-political climates and cost pressures.

Capital Expenditure

Historical Capex is reflected in the increase of Property, Plant, and Equipment (including CWIP) from INR 21.18 Cr in FY24 to INR 28.65 Cr in FY25. The company is investing in a new workshop expected to be operational by January 2026 to service mechanical seals.

Credit Rating & Borrowing

The company maintains a low-leverage profile with a Debt-Equity Ratio of 0.05 in FY25. Interest payments increased by 15.66% to INR 38.55 lakhs in FY25, but the Interest Coverage Ratio improved significantly to 56.16% from 41.62% YoY.

⚙️ Operational Drivers

Raw Materials

Specific raw materials include steel, various alloys, silicon carbide, tungsten carbide, and carbon. These are essential for manufacturing mechanical seals capable of withstanding high pressure and temperature.

Import Sources

Not specifically disclosed by country, but the company notes sensitivity to global commodity prices for steel and exotic alloys used in seal faces.

Capacity Expansion

The company is ramping up capacities to cater to increasing order intake, particularly for demanding API 682 applications in oil and gas, nuclear, and marine sectors. A new service workshop is planned for January 2026.

Raw Material Costs

Materials consumed in FY25 were INR 39.35 Cr, representing 38.97% of revenue, compared to INR 26.25 Cr (36.96% of revenue) in FY24. The increase is driven by higher production volumes and fluctuating prices of steel and alloys.

Manufacturing Efficiency

Inventory turnover improved from 216.92 days in FY24 to 163.75 days in FY25, indicating better stock management and production alignment with demand.

📈 Strategic Growth

Expected Growth Rate

23%

Growth Strategy

Growth is driven by a 'thrust' into project businesses (started FY24) and the high-margin aftermarket/replacement segment. The company has supplied 492 seals to major entities like ADNOC, which are expected to generate INR 25 Cr in annuity (replacement) revenue starting FY27. Every year, the company aims to add 150-200 API seals to its installed base to build recurring revenue.

Products & Services

Mechanical seals (API 682 and non-API), high-pressure seals for nuclear and marine applications, and seal-related maintenance/servicing.

Brand Portfolio

Sealmatic

New Products/Services

Focus on API 682 oil and gas seals, nuclear, and marine applications. Replacement business from the 492 seals already installed is expected to contribute significantly to revenue from FY27 onwards.

Market Expansion

Expansion into the Middle East (Kuwait, Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Iraq) and CIS countries. The company recently opened a Delhi office and participated in major global exhibitions like NEFTEGAZ (Moscow) and Pump Symposium (Houston).

Market Share & Ranking

Not disclosed in available documents, but identified as one of the fastest-growing mechanical seal companies in India.

🌍 External Factors

Industry Trends

The global mechanical seals market is projected to grow by USD 1.37 billion at a CAGR of 5.27% by 2027. The Indian market is growing faster due to government focus on irrigation, refineries, and 'green' manufacturing shifts.

Competitive Landscape

Faces aggressive price competition in the domestic market, especially if global export markets slow down and competitors pivot to India.

Competitive Moat

Moat is built on technical certifications for critical applications (API 682, Nuclear, Marine) and a growing installed base that creates high-switching-cost annuity revenue through replacements.

Macro Economic Sensitivity

Highly sensitive to Indian government infrastructural investment and global capex cycles in the refinery, petrochemical, and power sectors.

Consumer Behavior

Shift toward sustainable and 'greener' manufacturing is driving technological innovations in the mechanical seal sector.

Geopolitical Risks

The Russia-Ukraine war has paradoxically increased demand from CIS countries. However, general global political instability remains a downside risk to export growth.

⚖️ Regulatory & Governance

Industry Regulations

Operations are governed by the Companies Act 2013, SEBI (PIT) Regulations 2015, and FEMA 1999. Compliance with API 682 standards is critical for product acceptance in the oil and gas industry.

Environmental Compliance

The company is involved in CSR initiatives for education and healthcare and focuses on technological innovations for greener manufacturing.

Legal Contingencies

The Secretarial Audit report for FY25 indicates compliance with major acts (Companies Act, SEBI, SCRA) with no specific pending litigation values mentioned.

⚠️ Risk Analysis

Key Uncertainties

High inflation and rising interest rates globally could affect growth by 5-10% if capex projects are deferred. Aggressive price competition in India could squeeze operating margins.
