1.At a Glance
Insolation Energy Ltd (BSE: 543620), Jaipur’s solar sensation, just dropped its H1FY26 results with enough wattage to light up a small city. The stock currently trades at ₹153 – down from its peak of ₹435, which means anyone who bought at the top is now in the “renewable pain” business. Yet, beneath the stock correction lies a manufacturing beast with a market cap of ₹3,364 crore, an annualized revenue run rate of ₹1,498 crore, and a PAT of ₹145 crore.
Their Return on Equity (ROE) at34.9%and Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) at34.7%scream efficiency louder than your inverter when the light goes out. Quarterly sales have powered up 26.9% YoY, and profit surged 30.7%, showing that even when the stock sulks, the company’s panels don’t.
Insolation is rapidly morphing from a mid-size solar fabricator into a full-stack renewable energy powerhouse, riding India’s “Surya se Samriddhi” dream. With 3GW of new module capacity already lit up, another 1.5GW on the way, and a 4.5GW cell line coming soon, Insolation isn’t just selling panels—it’s charging into the future, one megawatt at a time.
2.Introduction
Welcome to the high-voltage world of Insolation Energy Ltd—where Jaipur’s sun, silicon, and sarcasm collide. Incorporated in 2015, the company’s rise resembles a solar flare—bright, fast, and slightly unpredictable. From a humble 200 MW setup, Insolation now operates multiple manufacturing units with a combined950 MW existing capacityand a roadmap to hit7.5 GW+once all projects go live.
If you blinked during FY22–FY25, you missed a 243% revenue surge. That’s not growth; that’s what happens when sunlight meets good management and government subsidies. With India’s solar capacity expected to cross 500 GW by 2030, Insolation wants to be the next “Adani Green, but without the grey areas.”
Its flagship brandINA Solarhas become a household name in North India’s rooftop market—especially in states like Rajasthan, Haryana, and Gujarat. You’ll find their panels everywhere, from government schemes like PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana and PM-KUSUM to industrial rooftops and BSNL’s telecom towers.
And here’s the juicy bit: while other manufacturers chase export markets, Insolation quietly built dominance in domestic tenders. They’ve cracked the government EPC game, landed multiple turnkey solar orders, and are now expanding vertically into solar cells and aluminum framing—because why just make panels when you can own the entire supply chain?
3.Business Model – WTF Do They Even Do?
At its core, Insolation Energy Ltd is a vertically integrated renewable manufacturing player that makessolar modules, PCUs (inverters), and solar batteries, and executes EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) projects under itsINA Solarbrand. Let’s decode it like a detective unravelling a financial thriller:
- Solar Module Manufacturing (87% of revenue):The bread and butter. They produce Polycrystalline, Monocrystalline, Mono PERC, and fancy-sounding Dual Glass & Bifacial modules ranging from40Wp to 590Wp. Basically, if it captures sunlight, they’ll sell it.
- Trading (13% of revenue):The side hustle. Think accessories, inverters, and components—small in margin but handy in visibility.
- Solar EPC & O&M:They design, install, and maintain solar plants for every type of client—corporate, residential, industrial, and agricultural. Once they’ve sold the plant, they keep earning through long-term O&M contracts. Smart, right?
- Solar PCUs & Batteries:Their inverters (440VA–10,000VA) and tall tubular lead-acid batteries (40Ah–230Ah) make them a one-stop energy solution provider.
The company’s business flywheel is simple yet potent:Make panels → Install panels → Maintain panels → Get government subsidies → Repeat.
And now, they’re turning that flywheel into a turbine by launchingN-Type TopCon solar panels (600W)—the next-gen tech that makes your regular panel look like a Nokia 1100 in a smartphone world.
4.Financials Overview
| Metric (₹ Cr) | Q2FY26 (Sep’25) | Q2FY25 (Sep’24) | Q1FY26 (Jun’25) | YoY % | QoQ % |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| EPS (₹) | 3.63 | 2.94 | 2.95 | 23.5% | 23.0% |
Commentary:Revenue is growing faster than rooftop installations before subsidy deadlines. EBITDA margins have improved from 13% to 14.7%, reflecting operational leverage from their 3GW plant going live. The EPS jump makes it clear: the company’s profits are not a mirage in the desert—they’re solar-powered reality.
5.Valuation Discussion – Fair Value Range Only
Let’s turn on the calculator:
A. P/E Based Approach
- EPS
- (TTM): ₹6.58
- Industry P/E: 27.4
- Current P/E: 23.2So, if Insolation catches up to the sector average, fair value range = ₹6.58 × (20–27) =₹132–₹178 per share.
B. EV/EBITDA Method
- EV = ₹3,458 Cr
- EBITDA = ₹182 CrEV/EBITDA = 17.0×If we assign a fair multiple range of 14×–18× (given strong ROE & growth), fair EV = ₹2,550–₹3,275 Cr.Implied equity value range =₹145–₹190 per share.
C. Simplified DCF (Educational Purpose)Assume 20% growth next 3 years, 10% terminal growth, 12% discount rate → intrinsic range₹140–₹185.
🟢Fair Value Range: ₹140–₹185 per share (Educational purpose only)📢Disclaimer: This range is for educational purposes only and not investment advice.
6.What’s Cooking – News, Triggers, Drama
If solar news were Bollywood, Insolation would be the hero doing action, romance, and dance—all at once.
- 3 GW PV Module Plant Commenced (Aug 2025):Their new Jaipur unit just went live, taking total capacity to 4 GW. Imagine adding a whole Adani Green plant, but faster and cheaper.
- 4.5 GW Solar Cell Plant (Bhoomi Pujan Aug 2025):₹1,600 crore investment, 1,600 jobs, and a 45-acre Madhya Pradesh facility. If all goes right, Insolation becomes India’s first fully backward-integrated SME solar player.
- IREDA Loan (₹1,134 Cr)sanctioned in Sep 2025 for the above project. Government money with green intentions.
- Big Orders:
- ₹232 Cr turnkey 54 MW AC (70 MWp DC) solar order (Oct 2025)
- ₹143 Cr solar module order from Zetwerk (Sep 2025)
- ₹750 Cr PM-KUSUM orders for 226 MW (Sep 2025)
- Fund Raise:₹400 Cr via QIP in June 2024 (executed Dec 2024) for expansion.
Basically, Insolation is behaving like a startup on caffeine—raising funds, bagging tenders, launching factories, and even applying for NSE Main Board migration.
