Systematic Industries has scheduled its 26th Annual General Meeting (AGM) for Tuesday, September 22, 2026. The meeting will be conducted via video conferencing or other audio-visual means (OAVM) at 1:30 pm. Remote e-voting will commence on Saturday, September 19, 2026, at 9:00 am and end on Monday, September 21, 2026, at 5:00 pm.

Financial Performance

The company reported a 16% year-on-year increase in net profit to ₹210.2 crore for the financial year ended March 31, 2026 (FY26). The Mumbai-based steel wire and cable manufacturer posted revenue from operations of ₹5,525.1 crore, marking a 24% growth over the previous fiscal year.

Financial Highlights

The company's top-line expansion was supported by sustained demand across its core segments, including power transmission and infrastructure. Revenue grew from ₹4,465.1 crore in FY25 to ₹5,525.1 crore in FY26. This growth translated into a profit before tax of ₹281.2 crore, up from ₹244.9 crore in the prior year.

Despite the revenue surge, EBITDA margins contracted by 91 basis points to 7.23% from 8.14% in FY25. The company attributed this margin compression to the evolving product mix and higher input costs, while emphasizing that new-age products like Optical Ground Wires (OPGW) are margin-accretive in the long term.

What the Numbers Show

A significant portion of the company's profit growth was driven by operational efficiency rather than just volume. While revenue grew by 24%, finance costs declined by 25% to ₹60.2 crore from ₹80.2 crore in FY25. This reduction in interest expense contributed directly to the bottom-line improvement, highlighting the impact of the company's deleveraging strategy.

Balance Sheet Strength

Systematic Industries achieved net-debt-free status as of March 31, 2026, having utilized proceeds from its initial public offering (IPO) to repay borrowings. The IPO raised ₹1,077.96 crore, with ₹950 crore specifically allocated for debt repayment. Consequently, the debt-equity ratio improved dramatically to 0.05 from 1.22 in FY25. Cash and cash equivalents stood at ₹129.4 crore, providing liquidity for future capex and working capital needs.

Strategic Developments

The company secured its first Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contract from Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (PGCIL) for the supply and installation of OPGW cables. This milestone positions Systematic Industries to participate in upcoming OPGW tenders. Additionally, the firm bagged contracts for OPGW cable supply in Odisha and Andhra Pradesh and initiated exports of OPGW cables at the start of FY27.

Systematic Industries announced the acquisition of a Galvanized Iron (GI) Wire manufacturing facility located in Siltara, Chhattisgarh, on August 4, 2026. The deal adds 48,000 metric tonnes per annum (MTPA) of installed capacity, increasing the company’s total production capability to 1,48,000 MTPA across its five operational units. This expansion addresses rising demand in power transmission and infrastructure sectors while strengthening the company’s geographic presence in Central India.

The disclosure was made pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The acquired facility spans approximately 10 acres and is fully operational, allowing for immediate integration into the company’s distribution network. Management stated that the transaction is immediately earnings per share (EPS) accretive, supported by a balanced funding approach and a net debt-free balance sheet.

Capacity and Geographic Expansion

The acquisition represents a significant scale-up for Systematic Industries, enhancing its installed capacity by approximately 48%. The new facility enables faster access to high-growth markets in Central India, optimizing logistics costs and improving service efficiency. By leveraging this strategic location, the company aims to improve capacity utilization and support quicker order fulfillment across its pan-India customer base.

Strategic Rationale and Synergies

Siddharth Rajendra Agarwal, Chairman and Managing Director, highlighted that the acquisition aligns with the company’s long-term strategy of scaling its core wire business. He noted that the operational readiness of the plant allows for the quick realization of synergies, capitalizing on growing demand in the infrastructure and power sectors. The company emphasized that the disciplined funding approach ensures sustainable scaling without compromising financial stability.

The expanded footprint supports cross-selling opportunities across Systematic Industries’ broader product portfolio, which includes steel wires, cables, and optical fibre solutions. As an approved vendor for key government bodies such as the Research Designs and Standards Organisation (RDSO) and Power Grid Corporation of India Limited, the increased capacity positions the company to secure larger contracts in railway, telecom, and power transmission projects.

What the Numbers Show

The immediate EPS accretion from a fully operational asset indicates a low-risk expansion strategy compared to greenfield projects. With a combined capacity of 1,48,000 MTPA spread across five units, Systematic Industries reinforces its position as India’s third-largest manufacturer of steel wires and cables, according to Care Edge Report data. The focus on geographic diversification into Central India suggests a strategic shift to reduce logistical bottlenecks and serve regional infrastructure demands more efficiently.
