  • Revenue stood at Rs 942.4 crore, up by 128%, as against Q1FY25 revenue of Rs 414.2 crore.
  • EBITDA stood at Rs 199.5 crore, up by 215%, as against Rs 63.2 crore of Q1FY25.
  • EBITDA margin improved significantly by 590 basis points YoY to 21.2% in Q1FY26.
  • Profit After Tax (from continuing operations) stood at Rs 128.5 crore for Q1FY26, up by more than 3 times, as compared to Rs 40.7 crore in Q1FY25.
  • The total order book as on 30 June 2025 stands at about Rs 29,321 crore (net of taxes), which gives visibility into robust future revenue growth.

Jitendra Kumar Agarwal, Joint Managing Director, Genus Power Infrastructures, said: “Genus Power Infrastructures Limited has begun FY26 with exceptional momentum, delivering another quarter of robust growth and operational progress. The company’s Q1FY26 performance underscores the scalability of its business model, the strength of its execution capabilities, and the depth of the opportunity within India’s accelerating smart metering transformation.

Revenue from operations surged to Rs 942 crore, representing 128% growth over Q1FY25. This sharp increase was driven by accelerated execution across multiple projects and a sharp increase in installation volumes, buoyed by robust demand from state utilities and private AMISPs. EBITDA more than tripled year-on-year to Rs 199 crore, with margins expanding to 21.2%, as disciplined cost management and operating leverage more than offset softening in gross margins. Net profit more than tripled to Rs 128 crore, translating into a PAT margin of 13.6%.

The industry backdrop remains highly favourable, with approximately 30–31 crore smart meters expected to be installed nationwide by 2031–32, of which only around 3 crore have been deployed so far, while only about 14 crore have been ordered and are at various stages of execution. This sustained pipeline, supported by a healthy tender flow from multiple states, offers multi-year visibility.

Genus’s position as a fully integrated player combining in-house manufacturing of electronics, moulding, and PCBs with proprietary HES and MDM software solutions and complete lifecycle O&M services ensures control over quality, execution speed, and cost efficiency, creating a competitive edge in winning and delivering large-scale projects. The current order book of over Rs 29,000 crore (net of taxes), of which approximately 80% of AMISP revenues will accrue directly to the company over the project lifecycle, provides a blend of near-term scale-up and long-term annuity-like income streams.

While working capital intensity remains elevated due to the upfront investment required in pre-operational phases, this is aligned with the company’s execution model and is expected to ease meaningfully as more projects reach operational status in the coming quarters. Also, several projects have moved closer to operational go-live (OGL) status, a critical inflection point that triggers stable, recurring O&M revenues and accelerates cash flow conversion. With clear revenue visibility, a growing base of O&M income, and continued operational efficiencies, Genus Power is well-positioned to deliver on its FY26 guidance of approximately Rs 4,000 crore in revenue and 18% EBITDA margin.

With a proven execution record, strong technological capabilities, and a robust pipeline, the company is primed to sustain its leadership and growth trajectory in India’s smart metering revolution.”

Genus Power Infrastructures announced Q3FY23 results:

  • Q3FY23:
    • Revenue stood at Rs 200.4 crore, up by 2.3%, as against Q3FY22 revenue of Rs 195.9 crore. Continued low availability of semiconductors and other critical electronic components hampered revenue expansion and lowered capacity utilization. We anticipate a sharp revenue rebound in FY24 on account of robust order book and healthy order inflow, and on the expectation that normalcy in the supply chain will be restored
    • EBITDA stood at Rs 20.5 crore, as against Rs 20.9 crore of Q3FY22. Operating margins have remained subdued on account of higher raw material costs and lower capacity utilization
    • Profit After Tax was up by 41.6% at Rs 11.6 crore for Q3FY23 against Rs 8.2 crore in Q3FY22.

Commenting on the performance Mr. Jitendra Kumar Agarwal, Joint Managing Director, Genus Power Infrastructures said, “We have recently received a huge order inflow for installation of 29.49 lakh smart prepaid meters, which will give lot of visibility to our revenues for coming years. It also signals a strong start to order inflow for our industry. We anticipate a sharp revenue rebound in coming quarters on account of robust orderbook and healthy order inflow, and restoration of normalcy in the supply chain.

In the current quarter, the supply chain issues for semiconductors continued to persist along with that of other essential electronic components. Inadequate capacity utilization led to subdued top-line growth and also had adverse impact on our operating margins.

The implementation of the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) will result in a radical transformation of the Indian metering industry, resulting in a projected multi-fold increase in annual industry size. This will also result in a shift in the Indian metering industry from conventional to smart meters, allowing for higher operating margins. The Indian metering industry will see strong order inflows, healthy topline growth, higher operating margins, and an improved working capital cycle beginning in FY24.

Allocation to the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) was doubled to Rs 12,000 crore in the 2023-24 Union Budget. The budget also ushered in a key measure for the financial health of states' distribution utilities by tying 0.5% of their deficit to power sector reforms, as an extension from last year. Continued fiscal support is an added incentive for the states to undertake power distribution reforms. These reforms will yield in the upgradation of the DISCOM network and metering, thereby curbing AT&C losses.

In comparison to conventional meters, the cost of smart meters can be anywhere from three to four times higher. In addition to that, they come packaged with a broad range of after-sales services. As a result of this, we anticipate a significant increase in revenue from smart meters, which typically have higher operating margins than traditional meters. All of this will, in the years to come, have the effect of reshaping the economic dynamics of the industry of smart meters in India. 

We build everything in-house, from conceptualization, design, tools room, molding machines, assembly lines, and test labs, so we can meet the highest industry standards. This is our most valuable USP because it allows us to customize products to meet our clients' metering needs in a timely and cost-effective manner. We have developed our service capabilities concurrently with our technological capabilities, as we offer end-to-end service solutions such as meter installation, meter maintenance, data analytics, MDM solutions, etc. This gives us a significant competitive advantage over our competitors.

We have been in the electricity metering business for over two decades and currently have the largest market share in India, accounting for approximately 27%. We hope to re-establish our leadership position in the smart metering industry by building on our inherent strengths. As the largest player in the Indian metering sector, we are well positioned to benefit from the industry's multi-fold expansion.”

Genus Power Infrastructures announced Q2FY23 results:

  • Q2FY23:
    • Revenue stood at Rs 218.6 crore, up by 23%, as against Q2FY22 revenue of Rs 177.8 crore. Continued low availability of semiconductors and other critical electronic components hampered revenue expansion and lowered capacity utilization. We anticipate a sharp revenue rebound in H2FY23 on account of robust orderbook and healthy order inflow, and normalcy in supply chain to be restored within the next three months. Post that, we expect to carry forward that momentum in FY24
    • EBITDA stood at Rs 16.9 crore, an increase of 16.1%, as against Rs 14.5 crore of Q2FY22. Operating margins were impacted by rising raw material costs and lower capacity utilization
    • Profit After Tax was up by 56% at Rs 10.2 crore for Q2FY23 against Rs 6.6 crore in Q2FY22
  • Order book:
    • In April 2022, we received a letter of award (LOA) for appointment of Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Provider (AMISP) including design of AMI system with supply, installation and commissioning of about 10 Lakhs Smart Prepaid Meters, DT Meter level energy accounting and FMS of these smart meters from a state utility. The total order, worth Rs 828.57 crore (net of tax), is the single largest order finalized by any state utility in India for AMISP
    • As on 30th September 2022, our order book stood at Rs 1,761 crore (net of tax)

Commenting on the performance Mr. Jitendra Kumar Agarwal, Joint Managing Director, Genus Power Infrastructures said, “In the current quarter we continued to face supply chain issues for semiconductors and other essential electronic components, as also disclosed in our previous earnings call. Inadequate capacity utilization affected our top-line growth and also had adverse impact on our operating margins. However, our operations are expected to pick up significantly in H2FY23.

We anticipate that the implementation of the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) will result in a radical transformation of the Indian metering industry, resulting in a projected multi-fold increase in annual industry size. This will also result in a shift in the Indian metering industry from conventional to smart metres, allowing for higher operating margins.

System integrators (also known as Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Providers, or simply AMISPs) will be responsible for all capital expenditures in the new TOTEX (CAPEX OPEX) model under the Design Build Finance Own Operate and Transfer (DBFOOT) arrangement, relieving SEBs of any financial burden. The Indian metering industry will see strong order inflows, healthy topline growth, higher operating margins, and an improved working capital cycle beginning in FY24.

SEBs are increasingly convinced of the TOTEX model, in which they will incur no capital expenditures for smart metres and instead make monthly (guaranteed) payments to AMISPs under the 'pay-as-you-save model.' We, as a company, will serve as both an AMISP (as per our limited appetite) and a smart metering vendor (a.k.a. technology provider) to other AMISPs. The TOTEX model will result in increased cash flow for SEBs, reducing the current working capital cycle significantly. Meters supplied to other AMISPs will be paid on an LC basis. Furthermore, because AMISPs will bear a significant portion of the capex, smart metre quality and timely delivery will be critical factors to consider when placing orders with metering companies, rather than simply selecting the lowest bidder.

In comparison to conventional metres, the cost of smart metres can be anywhere from three to four times higher. In addition to that, they come packaged with a broad range of after-sales services. As a result of this, we anticipate a significant increase in revenue from smart metres, which typically have higher operating margins than traditional metres.

Starting in FY23, the Indian metering industry will see strong order inflows, healthy topline growth, higher operating margins, and an improved working capital cycle.

Smart Meters are a value-added product that are three to four times more expensive than conventional meters. In addition, they come with a variety of after-sales services. As a result, we anticipate a substantial increase in revenue from smart meters, which typically have higher operating margins. All of this will alter the economic dynamics of the Indian smart metering industry in the coming years.

SEBs are becoming increasingly convinced of the TOTEX model, whereby they will incur no capital expenditures for smart meters and will instead make monthly payments (which are guaranteed) to AMISPs under the ‘pay-as-you-save model’. We as a company will play dual roles of being AMISP (as per our limited appetite) as well as being smart metering vendors (a.k.a. technology providers) to other AMISPs.
