The company's transformer manufacturing facilities have an annual installed capacity of 15,000 MVA. Its backward-integrated operations include in-house manufacturing of transformer tanks and radiators, reducing its dependence on third-party suppliers for certain important components.
Its EPC capabilities cover substations up to 400 kV and transmission lines at 132 kV, 220 kV and 400 kV. The company has supplied transformers and undertaken projects for central and state government utilities, PSUs, railways and private-sector customers.
Power transformers were the company's largest product segment and accounted for approximately 57.09% of FY26 revenue from operations. The company also had a sizeable order pipeline, including ₹573.26 crore of orders from PGCIL as of March 31, 2026.

Key strengths include the company's long operating history, integrated transformer manufacturing capabilities, presence across manufacturing and EPC activities, established relationships with government utilities and growth in revenue and profitability over FY24-FY26.
Investors should also consider risks associated with customer concentration, dependence on government and PSU orders, raw-material price fluctuations, project execution, working-capital requirements and capacity-expansion execution. Central and state utilities and PSUs accounted for approximately 85.37% of FY26 revenue from operations, making customer concentration an important consideration.
