MM Forgings Raises FY27 Revenue Target to ₹2,000 Crore Amid Strong Export Demand

MM Forgings Limited has raised its FY27 consolidated revenue guidance to ₹2,000 crore, supported by robust volume growth in H1 FY27 and a strong North American truck market. While the company faces execution delays on its heavy press project and rising debt levels, management remains confident in achieving ₹2,500 crore revenue by FY28.

Export Momentum and North American Demand Drive Volume Growth

MM Forgings demonstrated significant volume-led growth in the first half of FY27, achieving a turnover of ₹978 crore on 44,000 tons of sales. The performance was bolstered by the North American Class 8 truck market, which helped increase the US geography share from 12.5% to 16.5%. Overall export share climbed to 34%, reflecting deeper engagement with global MNC OEMs.

In the domestic market, the company benefited from the amalgamation of DVS Industries, which was approved by the NCLT in June 2026. Management has successfully passed on higher steel prices and conversion costs, maintaining a realization rate of approximately ₹2.23 lakhs per ton.

Strategic Capacity Expansion and EV Diversification

  • The 16,500-tonne heavy press commissioning is delayed by six months due to foundation plate logistics, now targeted for Q4 FY27.
  • Machining mix has improved significantly to 65%, up from approximately 56% in previous periods.
  • Abhinava Risel EV subsidiary started selling 300-400 motors monthly in July 2026.
  • Management plans to scale EV motor production to 3,000–4,000 units per month over the next few years.
  • Total FY27 capital expenditure is pegged at ₹150 crore, split equally between the two halves of the fiscal year.
  • Long-term targets for FY28 include reaching sales volumes of 1,05,000–1,10,000 tonnes.

Internal Margin Focus and Cost Efficiency

We have a huge scope on cost reduction ranging anywhere from 30 crores to about 100 crores. You have to all dare to dream, and from that we move on how we can cut costs or improve margins or improve sales. We are consistently thinking about and qualifying how we can improve our margins.

— Vidyashankar Krishnan, Managing Director, MM Forgings Limited

Financial Position and Balance Sheet Challenges

Despite strong operational metrics, MM Forgings faces pressure on its balance sheet with total debt reaching approximately ₹1,200 crore. This exceeds the company's previous internal gross debt cap of ₹800 crore, primarily due to higher working capital requirements to support volume growth and ongoing capital projects. Finance costs saw a slight reduction to ₹19 crore in Q2 despite higher utilization.

The company remains focused on internal accruals to balance the ₹150 crore capex plan for FY27. Management intends to maintain debt at current levels, betting on higher internal accruals from improved H2 volumes to neutralize long-term borrowing impacts.
