● Despite having a negative EBITDA in FY23, Nuvama anticipates that significant operational leverage and lowering fixed costs would lead the company’s EBITDA turnaround by Q3FY24 and business anticipates that reimbursement receivables approximately Rs 400 crore would be realised in FY24, primarily for repaying debt.
● The company’s domestic order book is expected to be worth Rs 5,000 crore by the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2024.
● The company has managed operational EBITDA breakeven point in the June quarter, with net debt of Rs 2,100 crore as of June 30, 2023.
● The firm is in the process of reducing fixed expenses from roughly Rs 400 crore per year to Rs 250 crore per year, according to Nuvama, and also the company’s current bid pipeline stands at 22 GW, with a domestic project mix of 58%.
