Credit challenges
− Concentrated order book
Under the administrative control of MoPNG, EIL majorly undertakes engineering work for the hydrocarbons and petrochemicals segment, and hence, the order book continues to be concentrated in oil and gas segment, which account for ~70-80% of the order book over the past three years. Dominance of the sector is expected to continue while there has been initiative to diversify to civil segments also. Presently, the strong outlook of the sector provides order visibility. However, in the long term, div
− Increased exposure by way of investments
Over the years, EIL has made investments in few companies from its existing cash and bank balances, Ramagundam Fertilizers and Chemicals Limited (RFCL) and Numaligarh Refinery Limited (NRL), wherein it holds 26% and 4.37% stake, respectively, as on March 31, 2026. While there is no additional investment in RFCL since FY23, EIL had participated in the rights issue for 1.26 lakh equity shares in NRL to maintain its shareholding in NRL at a price of ₹110 per share amounting to ₹138 crore. In FY26,
Could lead to a downgrade
• Material reduction in majority sovereign ownership and/or control. • Significantly declining order book thus adversely impacting the revenue visibility. • Significantly depleting cash reserve of the company.
