The growth in revenues was driven primarily by better execution in Infrastructure segment, persistent growth in Hydrocarbon segment and improved performance in heavy engineering, Electric & Automation segments and services business.

Order wins in Infrastructure and Hydrocarbon segments were the major contributors to the order inflow during the year. The International orders during the year at Rs 46, 805 crore accounted for 26% of the total order inflow.
Going ahead, we expect the company to continue to gradually improve its performance in medium term and revenues from infrastructure segment should continue to improve on better execution pace, to witness better traction in its other key segments including Defence business segment.
We have incorporated the latest numbers to our models for the company and continue to remain positive for the company. We maintain our buy rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 1,820 per share.
