The company reported total revenue from operations of INR 70.20 Cr in FY25, representing a 48.64% YoY growth from INR 47.23 Cr in FY24. While specific segment-wise revenue splits are not detailed, the company operates primarily in casting Bogie, Locomotive, and Railway track components, with a historical revenue CAGR of 107% from FY23 to FY25.
Geographic Revenue Split
Not disclosed in available documents, though the company highlights significant export potential as global customers diversify away from Chinese suppliers due to geopolitical risks.
Profitability Margins
Net Profit (PAT) margin stood at 23.30% in FY25 (INR 16.35 Cr profit on INR 70.20 Cr revenue), compared to 26.57% in FY24. The company targets a long-term PAT margin of 25% for all new product lines to ensure high-value returns on safety-critical engineering products.
EBITDA Margin
EBITDA skyrocketed at a CAGR of 331% between FY23 and FY25. For FY25, Profit Before Tax (PBT) was INR 20.04 Cr, a 32.35% increase from INR 15.15 Cr in FY24, reflecting strong operational efficiency despite a 127% increase in 'Other Expenses' to INR 9.79 Cr.
Capital Expenditure
Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) increased by INR 10.50 Cr, reaching INR 32.14 Cr in FY25 from INR 21.64 Cr in FY24. The company is investing in a new facility in Kanpur for complete bogies and couplers and a facility in Haridwar to drive forward integration.
Credit Rating & Borrowing
Finance costs increased by 44.29% YoY to INR 1.73 Cr in FY25. Total current liabilities rose significantly by 1,221% from INR 0.25 Cr to INR 3.31 Cr, primarily driven by current tax liabilities and other financial obligations.
Operational Drivers
Raw Materials
Specific grade raw materials for railway OEMs (54% of total revenue), including steel and casting inputs for bogie and locomotive components.
Capacity Expansion
Current installed capacity is 8,087 MTPA as of FY25. Planned expansion includes a new facility in Kanpur for complete bogies and couplers and a facility in Haridwar to move into high-value product segments.
Raw Material Costs
Cost of materials consumed was INR 37.90 Cr in FY25, representing 54% of total revenue. This is a 41.8% increase from INR 26.73 Cr in FY24, tracking closely with revenue growth.
Manufacturing Efficiency
The company transitioned from manual lathes to CNC machines and automated testing tools to ensure high precision and lower rejection rates in safety-critical components.
Strategic Growth
Expected Growth Rate
213%
Growth Strategy
The company plans to achieve its revenue target of INR 220-230 Cr in FY26 (up from INR 70.2 Cr) by expanding into complete bogie and coupler manufacturing at the Kanpur facility. It is also targeting the Vande Bharat metro project and international markets to capitalize on the 'China Plus One' strategy.
Products & Services
Bogie components, Locomotive components, Railway track components, complete Bogies, Couplers, and Braking systems.
Brand Portfolio
Neetu Yoshi
New Products/Services
Complete bogies and couplers for wagons and coaches, including components for Vande Bharat and potentially bullet trains, expected to drive revenue to INR 380 Cr by FY27.
Market Expansion
Expansion into the coach and track segments with a new plant; targeting global exports to replace Chinese suppliers facing high tariffs.
External Factors
Industry Trends
The Indian railway sector is undergoing a transformation driven by a INR 12 lakh crore modernization plan through 2031. Demand is shifting toward high-precision, certified components for high-speed and metro rail.
Competitive Landscape
Competes with manufacturers using manual lathes; Neetu Yoshi differentiates through CNC-based precision and automated HPML molding lines.
Competitive Moat
The company's moat is built on RDSO approvals, which are mandatory and difficult to obtain for safety-critical components. This is sustained by a 100% focus on high-margin (25% PAT) engineering products.
Macro Economic Sensitivity
Highly sensitive to Indian Government infrastructure spending, specifically the National Rail Plan and Dedicated Freight Corridors.
Consumer Behavior
Shift in government procurement toward 'Make in India' and high-speed rail infrastructure (Vande Bharat, Bullet trains).
Geopolitical Risks
Geopolitical risks are viewed as an opportunity, as global customers diversify away from Chinese suppliers, positioning Neetu Yoshi for export growth.
Regulatory & Governance
Industry Regulations
Strict adherence to RDSO (Research Designs and Standards Organisation) standards and STR (Schedule of Technical Requirements) is mandatory for all products.
Environmental Compliance
The company emphasizes 'environmental stewardship' as part of its mission, though specific costs are not disclosed.
Taxation Policy Impact
Effective tax rate for FY25 was approximately 18.4% (INR 3.69 Cr tax on INR 20.04 Cr PBT).
Risk Analysis
Key Uncertainties
Execution risk associated with the rapid scaling of revenue from INR 70 Cr to INR 230 Cr within one year; potential for margin compression if raw material costs rise faster than contract price adjustments.
Geographic Concentration Risk
Registered office in Uttarakhand with facilities in Kanpur and Haridwar; primary market is domestic (Indian Railways).
Third Party Dependencies
High dependency on RDSO for product approvals and STR compliance.
Technology Obsolescence Risk
Mitigated by recent investments in CNC machines and HPML molding lines to replace manual manufacturing processes.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Trade receivables stood at INR 10.38 Cr in FY25, representing approximately 14.8% of annual revenue, indicating relatively healthy collection cycles.
