Eleven order wins across wagons, signalling, and overhead equipment

Looking back through the filings, the order flow picked up on 27 June 2026, when Texmaco Rail announced a Letter of Intent worth Rs 4.71 crore from Mangalore Coal Terminal for design, supply, erection, testing, and commissioning of 25 KV, 50 Hz Over Head Electrical Equipment, with a 12‑month execution period (BSE filing, 27 June 2026). Three days later, on 1 July, the company disclosed two orders aggregating Rs 351.16 crore: Rs 253.28 crore from JSW (South) Rail Logistics for manufacture and supply of BFNSM1 rakes and BVCM wagons (previously disclosed as an LOI on 19 June) with a 13.5‑month timeline, and Rs 97.88 crore from Sushila Transport Private Limited for ACT1 rakes and BVCM wagons to be delivered by 31 October 2027 (BSE filing, 1 July 2026).

The same week, on 2 July, Texmaco Rail won a Rs 26.56 crore contract from South Central Railway for Comprehensive Signalling and Telecommunication works — including Automatic Block Signalling and Kavach — to be completed within 12 months. That filing also noted that the Infra Rail & Green Energy division order book stood at Rs 1,159.94 crore (BSE filing, 2 July 2026). On 7 July, a Letter of Award from Central Warehousing Corporation valued at Rs 70.72 crore for BLSS rakes and a Brake Van arrived, with execution required within 180 days (BSE filing, 7 July 2026).

Orders then continued through August and September: Rs 77.76 crore from IVC Logistics for ACT1 wagons and BVCM wagons (12 August); a Rs 24.48 crore order from Transport Corporation of India for one ACT‑1 rake and one BVCM wagon, to be supplied within 16 weeks (1 September); two orders totalling Rs 131.36 crore on 5 September — Rs 24.48 crore from Transport Corporation of India (a repeat order) and Rs 106.88 crore from Touax Texmaco Railcar Leasing for four BFNS22.9 rakes and four BVCM wagons; and on 10 September, a Rs 27.82 crore order from Hindalco Industries for one BTAP rake and one Brake Van for the Aditya Expansion Project (all per BSE filings). The 3 October anti‑bird disc order adds a small but distinct infrastructure‑services line to the mix.

A jump to international diesel‑electric locomotives

The largest disclosed award came on 1 September 2026, when Texmaco Rail filed that it had received a Letter of Award worth USD 135 million (approximately ₹1,125 crore, as stated by the company) from Tsiko Africa Logistics (Pty) Ltd and Barberry Holdings (Pty) Ltd for the design, manufacture, supply, and commissioning of 4,500 HP Wabtec ES43ACi diesel‑electric locomotives. The company characterised it as an international order, with execution within 20–24 months from the signing of a definitive agreement (BSE filing, 1 September 2026).

A small defence‑tech acquisition through a subsidiary

In a separate filing dated 30 September 2026, Texmaco Rail announced that its subsidiary Texmaco Defence Technologies Limited had signed a Share Purchase Agreement to acquire 100% of Indolem Technologies Systems Private Limited for a cash consideration of Rs 8,00,000. The target company, incorporated in March 2026, is engaged in Autonomous Land Systems, Autonomous Sea Vehicles, and allied autonomous technologies. The filing indicates the transaction is expected to close within 30 business days (BSE filing, 30 September 2026).

Q1FY27 financials and management transition

Texmaco Rail reported its Q1FY27 consolidated results on 3 August 2026. Revenue came in at ₹756.68 crore, down 16.9% year‑on‑year and 35.2% quarter‑on‑quarter, while EBITDA margin held at 10%. Profit after tax rose to ₹50.04 crore, up 66.9% year‑on‑year, but the filing noted that the profit increase was materially supported by other income of ₹18.53 crore and a tax credit (BSE filing, 3 August 2026).

On the management front, Chief Financial Officer Kishor Kumar Rajgaria resigned on 14 July 2026 and was relieved effective 31 August 2026. The board appointed Shibu Mathews, a Chartered Accountant with 26 years of experience across MRF, Bharti Airtel, and ITC, as CFO with effect from 5 September 2026 (BSE filings, 14 July, 31 August, 5 September 2026). Additionally, CARE Ratings reaffirmed the company’s long‑term and short‑term bank facilities at CARE A; Stable / CARE A1 on 2 July 2026 (BSE filing, 2 July 2026).
