NSE IPO: Fighting on All Fronts – CAS, New Capital Norms, Clearing Corp, MSE & Others
- This insight discusses in detail about NSE upcoming IPO and why it is fighting on all fronts.
- We discuss 5 areas which could potentially impact NSE’s near term earnings.
- Finally, we discuss on IPO valuation and our view on the same.
Triveni Engineering Demerger: Power Transmission and Defence Business
- Triveni Engineering has demerged its Power Transmission and Defence businesses, creating a focused company with strong margins and a clean balance sheet
- Power Transmission contributes only ~4% of revenue but ~23% of segment profit, with PBIT margins of ~35% and a growing aftermarket business
- Capacity expansion, defence opportunities and marine systems could support the next phase of growth, but execution and utilisation remain key
Cyient DLM: The Pivot from Board Assembly to Build-To-Spec Engineering
- Strong Q1 execution: Revenue grew 34%, EBITDA 56% and PAT 118% YoY, with EBITDA margin reaching 10.5%.
- Record order visibility: Order book reached INR 2,599 crore with 1.5x book-to-bill, supported by strong Aerospace, Industrial and Defence demand.
- New growth engines: AI infrastructure, robotics, data centres and B2S could support the next leg of growth and improve margins.
Triveni Engineering and Industries (TRE IN): Synthetic Expert Call Transcript (11 Sep 2026)
- Siphoning of High-Margin Growth (PTB Demerger): The demerger of the Power Transmission Business (PTB) on July 22, 2026, leaves Triveni Engineering (TEIL) as a highly cyclical commodity play. While PTB generated only 5.4% of FY26 revenues (₹340 crore), it commanded a highly lucrative 35.4% segment margin, contributing a quarter of PBIT. Crucially, almost all of the ₹1,301 crore gross debt has been left on TEIL’s balance sheet, leaving the demerged Triveni Power Transmission (TPTL) virtually debt-free.
- Structural Working Capital Squeeze: TEIL faces severe cash-flow pressures due to regulatory friction. While the central government has raised the sugarcane Fair and Remunerative Price (FRP) to ₹365/quintal for the 2026-27 season (and UP State Advised Price is up to ₹400/quintal), the Minimum Support Price (MSP) for sugar has remained frozen at ₹31 per kg since 2019. This disparity forces TEIL to carry massive, expensive inventories financed by ₹862 crore in working capital debt.
- Promoter Governance & Compensation Backlash: At the September 7, 2026 AGM, public institutional investors staged a major rebellion against the promoter family’s capital allocation and compensation policies. Specifically, 36.45% of polled institutional votes were cast against the remuneration revision for Managing Director Tarun Sawhney. This dissent reflects growing investor frustration over high executive payouts (such as Sawhney’s ₹7.84 crore FY26 remuneration) coupled with the dilutive acquisition of the low-efficiency Sir Shadi Lal Enterprises (SSLEL) in 2024.
