What the Numbers Show
Despite the decline in absolute revenue figures, Modern Engineering & Projects managed to stabilize its EBITDA levels, which remained nearly flat at ₹1,961.20 crore compared to ₹1,956.38 crore in Q1FY26. This divergence suggests that while volume or price realization pressures impacted the top line, cost management measures or a shift in product mix helped preserve operating cash flows. However, the inability to translate this operational stability into higher net profits indicates persistent pressure on non-operating expenses or tax outflows, keeping the bottom line constrained at ₹15.36 crore.
