1. At a Glance
GE Vernova T&D India Ltd right now is behaving like that topper who failed once, cried in the washroom, then came back with a gold medal and an attitude problem. Market cap sitting at ₹79,711 Cr, stock flirting around ₹3,113, and a Q3 FY26 PAT of ₹291 Cr with 139% YoY profit growth.

ROCE at 54.7%, ROE at 40.4%, and debt so low (₹30.5 Cr) it’s practically decorative. Order book at ₹9,836 Cr, almost 3× FY22 levels. Exports forming nearly half of new orders. And valuation? A spicy 71× P/E and 50× EV/EBITDA—the stock market clearly believes India’s grid will never sleep again.
But question time: is this a structural rerating story or peak-cycle euphoria with Swiss precision branding? Let’s open the switchyard.

India’s grid capex cycle is booming: renewable evacuation, HVDC links, transmission upgrades, and digitisation. GE Vernova T&D is sitting right in the middle, selling not just iron and copper but brains—software, automation, and ultra-high voltage tech.
