IL&FS Engineering has bagged a Rs 165-crore pipeline-laying contract from GAIL. The company is attempting to maintain margins of around 12-13 percent for the pipeline which goes across Patna, Gaya and Dobhi, according to IL&FS management.
The company had seen dips in its margins in the previous quarter. Ramachandran says this was due to delays in some of the Bihar orders which were facing land acquisition issues.
The company has around Rs 900 crore to Rs 1000 crore of debt in its books, he says, and efforts are being made to efficiently execute orders to reduce them. The implementable order according to Ramachandran is Rs 7,400 crore.
JR Vyas, CMD, Dishman Pharma said the sale of SEZ land is likely to be concluded in the next fiscal.
