Financial Performance
Revenue Growth by Segment
Standalone revenue for Q2 FY17 was INR 194.05 Cr, representing a 41.8% YoY decline from INR 333.65 Cr. Segmental order book as of Sept 2016 was dominated by Roads/Bridges at INR 2,264 Cr (68%), followed by Buildings at INR 736 Cr (22%), Power at INR 236 Cr (7%), and Railways at INR 64 Cr (2%).
Geographic Revenue Split
The order book as of Sept 2016 shows a heavy concentration in the West region at 72%, followed by the East at 16% and the North at 12%.
Profitability Margins
Consolidated Q2 FY26 income was INR 13.56 Cr against expenses of INR 173.70 Cr, resulting in a loss before tax of INR 160.15 Cr. However, a massive exceptional gain led to a PAT of INR 6,305.92 Cr. Historically, EBITDA margins declined from 21.8% in Q2 FY16 to 15.8% in Q2 FY17.
EBITDA Margin
EBITDA margin for Q2 FY17 was 15.8%, a decrease of 604 bps from 21.8% in Q2 FY16. EBITDA fell 57.9% YoY to INR 30.65 Cr.
Capital Expenditure
Historical project costs for BOT portfolios include INR 1,206 Cr for Panvel Indapur and INR 1,045 Cr for Jaipur Ring Road. Recent specialized piling contracts like One Forest Avenue (INR 71.31 Cr) indicate a shift toward high-margin foundation works.
Credit Rating & Borrowing
Borrowing costs are high, evidenced by a 20% per annum coupon rate on INR 25 Cr of Secured Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs) issued in Dec 2025. Historical interest costs were INR 67.77 Cr in Q2 FY17, up 7.2% YoY.
Operational Drivers
Raw Materials
Key raw materials include aggregates, asphalt, and Ready-Mix Concrete (RMC). The company manages costs through backward integration, owning its own quarries, crushers, and hot mix plants.
Import Sources
Sourced locally across 13 operational states, primarily Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Punjab, and West Bengal, to support regional EPC projects.
Key Suppliers
Not disclosed in available documents; however, the company utilizes its own internal supply chain for aggregates and asphalt.
Capacity Expansion
Current capacity includes 11 BOT projects (4 operational, 7 under construction as of 2016). Specialized piling capacity is demonstrated by the 4,50,000 cubic meter excavation and 300 mm shore piling capability for the One Forest Avenue project.
Raw Material Costs
Raw material costs are managed through backward integration. Total expenses for Q2 FY26 were INR 173.70 Cr, significantly exceeding operational income of INR 13.56 Cr.
Manufacturing Efficiency
Efficiency is driven by the backward integrated model, allowing for better quality control and cost management in complex infrastructure projects.
Logistics & Distribution
Distribution is handled internally through a fleet supporting 13 states, primarily focused on the West region (72% of order book).
Strategic Growth
Expected Growth Rate
5-7%
Growth Strategy
Growth is targeted through high-value specialized foundation and piling contracts (e.g., INR 71.31 Cr One Forest Avenue project) and a focus on high-margin commercial real estate sectors. The company is also undergoing financial and operational restructuring to stabilize its balance sheet, which currently shows negative reserves of INR 6,257.65 Cr.
Products & Services
EPC services for roads, highways, buildings, bridges, railways, power, and water infrastructure; specialized deep-excavation and geotechnical piling works.
Brand Portfolio
Supreme Infrastructure India Limited (SIIL).
New Products/Services
Expansion into high-margin commercial real estate foundation works, expected to contribute significantly to topline growth following the INR 71.31 Cr Brookfield-backed contract win.
Market Expansion
Targeting high-value urban infrastructure projects in Mumbai and specialized IT parks in West Bengal (INR 25.25 Cr) and Kolkata (INR 55.73 Cr).
Strategic Alliances
Strategic JV with 3i, which holds a 49% stake in several BOT projects including Ahmednagar Kopargoan and Ahmednagar Karmala.
External Factors
Industry Trends
The industry is shifting toward specialized EPC and foundation works. SIIL is positioning itself for high-margin commercial developments to offset the capital-intensive nature of traditional BOT projects.
Competitive Landscape
Competes with major EPC players for NHAI and PWD contracts; specialized competition in piling from geotechnical firms.
Competitive Moat
The primary moat is the backward integrated model (quarries and crushers), which provides a cost advantage over competitors who must source aggregates externally. This is sustainable as long as quarrying rights are maintained.
Macro Economic Sensitivity
Highly sensitive to government infrastructure spending and NHAI awarding cycles, as Roads/Bridges constitute 68% of the order book.
Consumer Behavior
Increased demand for world-class commercial infrastructure in Mumbai, driving the need for specialized deep-excavation services.
Geopolitical Risks
Primarily domestic risks related to state-level regulatory changes in the 13 states of operation.
Regulatory & Governance
Industry Regulations
Subject to SEBI (LODR) Regulations 2015 and state-specific PWD/NHAI construction standards.
Environmental Compliance
Maintains ISO-9001/14001 and OHSAS-18001 certifications for quality and environmental management.
Legal Contingencies
The company is undergoing significant financial and operational restructuring, evidenced by negative reserves of INR 6,257.65 Cr and a massive exceptional gain of ~INR 6,466 Cr in Q2 FY26.
Risk Analysis
Key Uncertainties
Financial stability is a major risk, with negative reserves of INR 6,257.65 Cr. Debt servicing at 20% interest rates poses a significant liquidity risk.
Geographic Concentration Risk
72% of the order book is concentrated in the West region (primarily Maharashtra), creating high regional policy risk.
Third Party Dependencies
High dependency on awarding authorities like NHAI and PWD for 68% of the order book.
Technology Obsolescence Risk
Low risk in traditional EPC, but requires ongoing investment in specialized piling and geotechnical equipment.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Exposure to government receivables and private developers like Brookfield; receivables quality is critical given the current financial restructuring.
