Brokerages See Over 25% Upside Despite Saatvik’s Weak Quarter
Saatvik Green Energy sells equipment used to make solar power.
Its sales and profits dropped sharply in the quarter ending June 2026.
The company said customers delayed purchases while waiting for clearer rules called ALMM-II.
Problems in the Middle East, higher costs and supply disruptions also hurt the business.
However, Saatvik received more future orders than it had in March.
Its debt compared with shareholders’ funds also improved.
Two brokerages think the company can grow strongly in the next few years.
They expect its own cell manufacturing and large order book to help profits recover.
Saatvik Green Energy’s consolidated gross sales fell 44% year on year to Rs 511 crore in the quarter ended June 2026.
Profit after tax declined 95% year on year to Rs 5.36 crore.
Management and Motilal Oswal cited geopolitical tensions, supply-chain disruptions and uncertainty over ALMM-II for weaker sales volumes.
The company’s order book rose to 6.35 GW in June 2026 from 5.89 GW in March 2026.
Ambit Capital and Motilal Oswal expect stronger volumes, in-house cell manufacturing and the order book to support medium-term profitability.
