🚧 RPP Infra’s 5-Year Blueprint: From Tamil Nadu to Colombo, Can This ₹2,762 Cr Order Book Cement Its Future?


📌 At a Glance

RPP Infra Projects Ltd has reported a modest FY25 with a ₹64.57 Cr PAT, flat compared to last year’s ₹65.52 Cr. But the real story? A fat ₹2,762.89 Cr order book, a ₹764 Cr Sri Lankan gig, and a bunch of one-time write-offs that look like they raided the balance sheet with a bulldozer.

So… profit stable. Revenue up. Margin—meh. And plenty of digging, both in the ground and in the ledgers.
