Capacit’e Infraprojects reports 4% revenue growth, profitability hit by labour and monsoon

Rohit Katyal, Executive Chairman, Capacit’e Infraprojects 

Capacit’e Infraprojects Limited reported total income of ₹599 crores for the first quarter of FY26, marking a 4 per cent year-on-year increase from ₹578 crores in the corresponding period last year. However, profitability metrics came under pressure during the quarter.

The construction company’s EBITDA declined 4 per cent to ₹112 crores from ₹116 crores in Q1 FY25, with EBITDA margin compressing to 18.6 per cent from 20.1 per cent in the previous year. Net profit fell 12 per cent to ₹47 crores compared to ₹53.4 crores in the same quarter last year, resulting in a PAT margin of 7.8 per cent.

Executive Chairman Rohit Katyal attributed the quarter’s challenges to temporary labour shortages resulting from Eid-related migration and the early onset of the monsoon. The company maintained its strong balance sheet position, with gross debt reducing to ₹395 crores from ₹417 crores at the end of March, keeping the debt-to-equity ratio at 0.22x.

Capacit’e secured new orders worth ₹1,290 crores during Q1 FY26, maintaining its robust order book at ₹11,254 crores as of June 30, 2025. The order book comprises 62 per cent public sector and 38 per cent private sector projects.

Execution outlook

The company expects execution to accelerate in the second half of FY26, following the post-monsoon period, supported by operational improvements already underway. Capacit’e operates across major Indian cities including Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Pune, Bengaluru, and Chennai, providing end-to-end construction services for residential, commercial, and institutional buildings.

The shares of Capacit’e Infraprojects Limited ended today on the NSE at ₹284.75, down by ₹6.95 or 2.38 per cent.
