Yes. Thank you, operator and Ms. Chandni. Good morning to everyone for taking time off your busy schedule to be with us this morning. We appreciate your time. So I am myself, Unnikrishnan Nair, one of the leadership team, Managing Director and Chairman from Anlon Technology Solutions Limited. I have with me Anushree, our Chief Financial Officer. So we both will update you on the key developments for the financial year that passed and also the half year that we crossed on 31st of March. So looking back to FY '26, it has been a real transformational year for Anlon. And it was a year marked by strong operational progress, meaningful scale-up in our indigenous manufacturing strategy. We executed many of the things very successfully, especially a few critical infrastructure projects. And we got into a strong position as a specialized engineering solutions provider for aviation, municipal and industrial sector. So for the last few years, the company has established organization from being primarily a service-led organization into a manufacturing-driven engineering solutions platform, increasing contribution from indigenous manufacturing, strategic global partnership, which we have been having for 2 decades now, we further strengthened that with the new area. And execution of large infrastructure projects have significantly strengthened both our operational capabilities and long-term growth outlook. Operationally, FY '26 was one of the most significant years in the company's history. During the year, indigenous manufacturing and assembly emerged as the core revenue driver for the business. We continued strengthening our manufacturing and engineering capabilities from our Bangalore facility, supported by in-house design, engineering, assembly and refurbishment capabilities. One of the major highlights during the year was the successful refurbishment of the what is supposed to be one of the world's largest firefighting vehicles for Goa Airport, along with delivery of multiple indigenously engineered airport infrastructure solutions. Another important milestone for the company was becoming the first manufacturer in India to receive the EN 14043 Conformity Certificate from TUV SUD Germany for turntable ladder with rescue lift capability. This achievement reflects our strong focus on engineering excellence, quality standards, compliance and indigenous capability development. We also continued strengthening our strategic relationships with leading global OEMs, including Rosenbauer International AG Austria, Bucher Municipal Switzerland and AMS aircraft from the United States. These partnerships continue to enhance our technological capabilities, strengthen our positioning in high-value infrastructure projects and create long-term opportunities across domestic and international markets. The company also developed indigenous runway rubber and paint removal solutions for airports, offering nearly 30% cost savings compared to imported alternatives. Increasing localization and in-house manufacturing capabilities are helping us improve competitiveness, execution timeline and operational efficiency. The industry outlook also remains highly encouraging. Increasing airport modernization process, infrastructure expansion, urban development initiatives and rising focus on operational safety continue to create strong long-term opportunities for engineering-led companies like Anlon, especially under the government's Make in India initiative and also the [Foreign Language] project across the country. As we move forward, our focus remains on expanding indigenous manufacturing capability, strengthening recurring revenue streams through AMC and refurbishment services, increasing localization, improving operational efficiency and enhancing execution capabilities across large infrastructure and aviation projects. Thank you all for listening to me, giving me this opportunity to talk to all of you. And at this stage, I would like to hand over the floor to Ms. Anushree, our CFO, who will take you through the financial performance, revenue highlights and order book position for half year -- financial year '26.

[Operator Instructions] The first question is from the line of Mulesh from Savla.

Mulesh Savla

Analysts
#6

First of all, our heartiest congratulations on excellent set of numbers and also a very detailed presentation uploaded on the website.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#7

Thank you, sir.

Mulesh Savla

Analysts
#8

Yes. Sir, now my question seems that we have by and large established ourselves as a local manufacturing engineering company, may I know, has there been any traction from the international market to supply the vehicles and equipments for our business activity?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#9

Right. May I answer this question, sir?

Mulesh Savla

Analysts
#10

Yes, please, then I'll ask my second question.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#11

Yes. Like I mentioned in my opening remarks, also in the presentation, it was a significant year because all that we made and supplied to the market, let's say, 1.5 years ago, most of them completed a year of service in the field, right? This is very significant for us because not only that you make a good-looking equipment with the certain performance characteristics that you plan to highlight. But now last, let's say, 12 to 15 months, market also has kind of experienced, let's say, not 100% German engineering products, but definitely not the ones that we used to make in the past. So this is very key. So most of the international companies are watching what is going on, how the customer is accessing in the market, and we will be very happy to tell you that has market received some very well all the refurbished machines in some parameter, especially in a very key parameter that kind of exceed the original test back in 2008. So therefore, this is very significant that we are qualified operationally, seeing the performance results in the field at various airports and municipal proportion. Now coming to the other half of the question. There have been fragmented response from the international manufacturers to start manufacturing from India. At the moment, we are up to [ North ] level working hard to cater to the domestic market itself. The reason is Government of India is driving and infrastructure growth like unprecedented scale. And the areas that we represent are very tightly related to the safety and the licensing requirements of airports and slightly related to the safety of refinery and petroleum installations and also very much required, according to national building code, the safety of high-rise building. So therefore, next year at least, 1 year, 1.5 years, we are fully tied up with fulfilling the domestic market. We are now -- we have agreed with at least 2 major international companies building with increase the localization and using only the core technology. And why we are doing it, because this will be, let's say, Bucher Municipal Switzerland, the product will be like Bucher Anlon product. . This is where we are at the moment. This year, we will see this cooperation taking place.

Mulesh Savla

Analysts
#12

Great, sir. Great. Very happy to hear that. And sir, since now manufacturing has started full fledged, can we expect a much higher portion of manufacturing in our total revenue?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#13

Yes. For sure.

Mulesh Savla

Analysts
#14

Okay. And can you give some number on that?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#15

Yes. At the moment, we have reached up to 65%.

Mulesh Savla

Analysts
#16

Great, great, great. And just to conclude on my questions, may we have some sort of qualitative guidance for the financial year '27? Should we be expecting the similar kind of growth that we saw in '26?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#17

We can assure you that we will not be lazy anymore. We should improve what we have done in the financial year.

Mulesh Savla

Analysts
#18

I'm sure because you got a couple of good orders even yesterday also. So growing 50% -- 50% to 100% should not be a question for you.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#19

Yes. One of the reasons is that people need -- the market will surely need -- you find that we have been traditionally manufacturing, and people were forced to buy a little bit compromised solution. So now we are able to bring word-class concept and technology, probably help economically with the Indian production. It's no doubt that best technology available in the world because most of our partners are world leaders in their own area. And now there is an increase in interest in bringing the technology and sharing with us so that they themselves can benefit out of the cost savings that we can together make. So for sure, the market will perform. That is my experience over the last 20 years.

The next question is from the line of [ Javeri ] from Crown Capital.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#21

Firstly, congratulations on really fantastic numbers that you've delivered, sir. Sir, just wanted to understand, when you say that you are planning to improve on the growth, so you mean the growth rate? Because we've nearly doubled the sales in current year? Or do you mean in absolute numbers? Like how do you quantify that, sir?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#22

Yes. Sir, first of all, thank you for your kind words. It means a lot. And we are so grateful over the last 3, 4 years how the investor supported us, support, encouragements. So we are really overwhelmed. Now coming to the growth, see, I have to ask [indiscernible] to concept, but that all these order books that you are seeing is readily strong markets. I wouldn't describe myself in being a great sales and marketing person because these were -- ever since the Government of India announced the change in policy from fully imported equipment to Make in India and [Foreign Language], for many years, the procurement agencies struggled with what kind of policy they can come out with okay, whereby they don't dilute from the international policies expected and also required for several practical infrastructure based on international standards. But how to include Indian content in that and how to get an accurate policy, so many of the procurement has struggled because it resulted in a pile up of requirement which is still not clear yet. So growth, I can predict steady growth once we start utilizing our full marketing and sales for tenders. Now we are struggling to keep up with the demand of the market. And this reaction will take us at least 1 more year to meet the piled up demand, which was a little bit delayed on translating the quality into practical rules. You understand Saveri, sir?

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#23

Yes. So sorry, a slight clarification. So you're saying there's a lot of pent-up demand which you are not being able to meet. So does that mean that FY '27 can be a really great year, and then FY '28, there will be some moderation? Or -- I could not conclude on the thing that you are trying to say, sir.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#24

Yes. In effect, what I'm saying is our salesmen are engaged more in our processing activities than in going and selling at the moment, not that they are not selling. But we are now meeting this demand that we couldn't process for 2, 3 years probably due to COVID and due to policy shifts and all these things. Now we started growing. And also, I have to bring another factor to your attention. Just Make in India doesn't mean that [indiscernible] organization or petrochemical agencies will relax their requirements. This cannot be an easy or universal process. Master building will not relax because now they are going to do Make in India. So let me reduce the standard. No, they won't do. So the procurement agencies have to be very careful in implementing Make in India. So they took some time of their own. Now it started flowing. So another 15 months, we'll be struggling hard to meet the demand.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#25

Okay, okay. Fair enough, sir. And sir, just with regards to margins. So we are able to increase our own manufacturing component. So margin suits your steady climb, right, like the way we've done 20% in March. So can we expect like better margins going forward, sir?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#26

Yes, Saveri sir. Just a few factors for your consideration, just to let you know what has been going on. When we receive the initial Make in India orders, we just established the facility and we borrowed manpower from our established service teams. The reason is the last 20 years, we have been maintaining these equipments, taking out parts, keeping them back, repairing them, reworking on them. So they are quite familiar with the new order or the bill of materials or, let's say, the components to be used in new orders. Second year, this is a full plus year where our own full manufacturing team has completed work. So there is we had to build up a very good, let's say, manpower resource team. We have to invest in this. And now we have invested on that, purely assembly and manufacturing team. Number two, if you look at the product mix, over the last 2 years, first year was a particular type of machine. Second year, we diversified into several manufacturing, and each of them were kind of prototype development for the Indian market So therefore, some investments we had to do had to be done for preparing a full fledged focused assembly and manufacturing team. So we sent out our servicing team back to their places and then we also had to develop for each product. So starting from rubber removal, firefighting equipment, refurbishment of CSCs, high rise building [indiscernible], runway city, multiple cities, so each area we, have to develop our ecosystem to manufacture. So it was very important at the first year and the second year also. Maybe we are kind of established now, and that would result in the coming years.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#27

Yes. So sir, as we're developing more prototypes. So right now, as we do more commercial production, margins can improve well because now we have the economies of scale and operating level, is that right? Or is that like we maintain like the steady-state margin that we're doing right now?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#28

Saveri sir, [Foreign Language]. We're actually kind of [ sharpening ] every possible way. Just for an example, I'll tell you. We used to make a cut and develop [indiscernible] from [ Fan ], okay. Now we found an alternative supplier who is building then a big sheet of [ shuttle ], which I myself can cut and use according to my need. Just an example, I'm telling you So this company is from Serbia, from Eastern -- and they are based out of Belgrade. So this probably [indiscernible] sell some structures also. I will use it for my view, but I can give it to maybe my competitor also a little bit. You get my point?

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#29

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#30

This process is on. And we are asking some of these companies, please don't sell the components. Tell me how to make it, and we will pay you the technology for the technology.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#31

No, that's really a great approach, sir. So last point from my end, sir. Sir, we love hearing from your more frequently. So can we expect like quarterly results from now? And what is our plan to move to the main Board, sir?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#32

You buy me coffee, I will come to Mumbai.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#33

next time, for sure, sir.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#34

You want quarterly results, right?

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#35

It's not even a result, sir, a small like call or update that's going on. Because 6 months sometimes, like in the current world, it's essentially [indiscernible].

P. M. Nair

Executives
#36

Definitely. We will speak and brief Pooja and team and Arun, and myself will prepare for this. And we also [indiscernible] talk to each one of you. So why shouldn't we do this?

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#37

Fair. And once again, congratulations on great set of results, sir.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#38

Thank you.

The next question is from the line of [indiscernible] from [indiscernible].

P. M. Nair

Executives

Could you repeat the name, please? I didn't hear.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#41

[indiscernible] from [indiscernible].

Operator

Operator
#42

Congratulations on a great set of numbers. Sir, I had a couple of questions. So firstly, from an order book standpoint, can you give a breakup of how much is the Manufacturing & Assembly? And in that, what would be the breakup of -- if you could just describe how much would be runway rubber removal, runway sweeping and the kind of machines that you said?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#43

Okay. My colleague, Anu, our CFO, will reply to you, okay?

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#44

Sure.

Anushree Chaumal

Executives
#45

Thank you for your questions. So out of the INR 110 crores of order book, which we have mentioned in the investor presentation, I would like to bifurcate it into four parts. One is Manufacturing & Assembly. In that, we will be doing around INR 45 crores out of INR 110 crores in the Make in India. And for the trading of equipment, we will be doing around INR 28 crores. Coming to the AMC contracts, that will be around INR 21 crores, and trading coming to INR 14 crores.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#46

Okay. And the kind of breakup that in Manufacturing & Assembly, just a composition-wise, how much would be firefighting equipment, runway sweeping machines, runway rubber removal machines? I think we also added aerial products into this.

Anushree Chaumal

Executives
#47

Sure. So out of these equipment which I mentioned, around INR 45 crores, we will be doing a different mix of products equally. And out of this INR 45 crores, we will be doing runway rubber removal machines of around INR 8 crores. There will be introduction of new product mix also. We'll be doing a cash from tender of, let's say, INR 0.67 crores. We'll be doing a emergency response vehicle of INR 13 crores. We'll be supplying a turntable ladder of INR 9.67 crores. And there will be one supply, some water component tender also, of around INR 30 crores. So this year is going to be a diversification in our product mix, along with RRMs. And we'll be doing the emergency cash from tender and new products like water component also.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#48

So let me add. Turntable ladder, what Anushree mentioned, [indiscernible] building that we mentioned.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#49

Right. Thank you for the breakup. Good to know that we have such a diversification available and we can maintain the mix that we have and cater to different markets. Just from a 2-, 3-year standpoint, if you could help me, like what vision do we have taking our Manufacturing & Assembly business to. And what would this segment be looking like? What do you envision it looking like after, let's say, 3, 4 years?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#50

Yes. 20 years ago, when I used to go to this manufacturing plant, it used to be a dream that someway an Indian will make it and we'll be able to serve our countrymen with this kind of equipment. Government of India, our Prime Minister's vision helped us to make it a faster reality. Now the struggle or let's say, the -- not the struggle but the endeavor is to do maximum justice to the indigenous requirement. The challenge has been that -- you know from the industry revolution, Germany, Austria, Western Europe had already a fine-tuned ecosystem of supply chain. You need any kind of metal working solution, they had it. We have found we have some good support in India. We could make most of the things that they make, some things even surprise the Germans and Austrians how we made it. And the Bangalore ecosystem will help us. So these 2 years, if you ask me, you ask me for a history of 2, 3 years, right, so we plan to make more from -- for us to believe, first, and for our market and our partners on the Western Europe and U.S. to believe that this is possible. We can do it. So these 2 years, not only making them, but putting them into use and getting the feedback from customers has paved the way for being. So today, I will tell the world market and the partners that we are here to stay long. This is what has been done in the last 2, 3 years. If you ask me, if you have become a global manufacturer, no. And if you have become can cater to everything that comes from India, no. but we are here with the firm platform that we can scale up and meet the need. And we are an accepted solution provider in the market with proven result.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#51

Right. And just one last thing. We had announced a run rate of about INR 50 crores. So if you could just help me like how would these funds be utilized and what are the plans for these funds?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#52

Yes. We kind of, let's say, mapped the listed opportunities coming up in the coming 18 months, and we found that the pipeline for possible projects are quite huge that we can attempt. So at first step, we wanted to have the ability to bid and the orders. So this means that every order we -- a few months ago, we had a pipeline of INR 124 crores, and that means INR 12.4 crores is [ EMV ] and INR 12.4 crores is -- still 10% performance bank, 2% is EMV and then advanced bank R&D where they will pay you advance for 25% to 30%. So we said, let's sell it to INR 500 crores to INR 600 crores of opportunities and let us be a company that can compete on this project at the market demand. So this fund will be utilized to prepare ourselves for bidding in a healthy way in this. And then as soon as the contracts and order come, secure guarantee. This fund is mainly made for that quarter. The reason is we are pleasantly surprised by the vision of Government of India. I mean, I have shared it in many, many platforms. Just the case of [indiscernible] Airport, or for example, Varanasi Airport. Varanasi, I don't think they are even doing close to 1 million passengers per annum. But the capacity that government wants to build, the baggage system itself is INR 550 crores. You have to imagine that Delhi Terminal 3 was a INR 300 crore project in 2008. So every small airport that they are planning to do are coming out with [indiscernible], INR 251 crores system; Jammu, INR 161 crores. So this means that even bidding is around INR 3 crores to INR 4 crores yearly per EMV, which is returnable. They will pay you back. But you should be in a position to bid and compete for this project. So this is why we hurried to all of you and asked all of you to help us.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#53

Right, right. So just a follow-up on that aspect. so let's say, we want to do a INR 300 crores, INR 400 crores kind of business. We won't be needing to put up any capacity in terms of our plant, right?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#54

At the moment, we are okay for all that has come through as orders. We are looking at doubling the capacity over the next 1 year just to have capability to meet the needs. This initially will be through a leasing model. I don't know if you have been to this part of Bangalore. But we have new 2 or 3 new industrial areas. One is where the companies also established a huge facility. We have several industrial set constricted because people have got land allocated to them, I don't know how, but they have project. So I think you don't have relatives in Karnataka, but there are the industrial projects there. And so we can -- I'm joking, but you can have space available to scale up. And our immediate neighbor also has something to offer to us. So we will scale up. And Karnataka government is the gracious enough to give us 3x the land that we have. The Industrial Minister himself visited. MSME Central Minister visited us. We show them how each area is located. So we are gearing up at projects.

[Operator Instructions] The next question is from the line of [ Manoj Cheti ] from NB Investments.

Unknown Analyst

#56

Am I audible?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#57

Yes, Manojji.

Unknown Analyst

#58

So once again, congratulations, very good set of numbers, as you had indicated earlier. [Foreign Language] Please convey our best wishes to them.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#59

We'll do that. Thank you so much. Thank you.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#60

First, two or three clarifications. The first one to the CFO Madam. In the order what we have on date as on March 31, INR 110 crores. Madam had given the breakup. First one is INR 45 crores is Manufacturing & Assembly. Second was, I think, INR 28 crores is [ trading ], if that is correct?

Anushree Chaumal

Executives
#61

Yes, sir. So Manojji, thank you for the question. So basically for trading, we need to say that there are certain equipment in which we will be doing the trading business. And that includes, out of INR 28 crores, we have an order for the supply and operation of PFT to [ GW ]. That still comprises of around INR 23.8 crores. And to Guwahati also, we are going to supply one compact battery operator sweeping machine around INR 3 crores. So INR 23 plus INR 3 crores, around INR 26 crores is what we are going to trade in special equipment.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#62

Okay. Now my clarification was in AMC, you said INR 21 crores. And there was one more item, is it INR 14 crores. What was that madam, INR 14 crores?

Anushree Chaumal

Executives
#63

Yes, sure. So that INR 14 crores is comprising of our spares and Distribution business, which is our traditional business.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#64

Okay. Fair enough. And second thing is the Manufacturing & Assembly breakup, the renewal machine was INR 8 crores. There was one more machine you mentioned of INR 8.67 crores. What was that machine, madam?

Anushree Chaumal

Executives
#65

That was more on turntable ladder.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#66

That's INR 9.6 crores, right?

Anushree Chaumal

Executives
#67

-- so. Okay. So INR 8.67 crores was the emergency cash flow tender, which we are going to try to supply to [ Cochin ] international airport.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#68

Emergency, what did you say, madam?

Anushree Chaumal

Executives
#69

Emergency cash flow tender.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#70

Manojji, it's 35,000 meters of [indiscernible]. It's a huge machine.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#71

Okay. So now we are almost at the end of the May. What I wanted to know is if you can share any new orders you have been receiving the last 2 months?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#72

Yes. We have some order, which we uploaded in NSEI. We have received one more turntable ladder from [ Cochin Airport ].

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#73

So does this tell total to around INR 20 crores or so?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#74

Should be, yes, close to that. We keep updating, sir, on the...

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#75

No problem. So whatever it maybe, around INR 120 crores or INR 125 crores, is it executable over this year or over a period of 18 months? Or what is the duration?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#76

I'm sure you will not leave us if we don't do it by '27 March.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#77

I would be very happy if you do that.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#78

Yes. We are trying to do. And people have started taking us seriously ,] not only talking. So okay. So we will be able to get better lead time. We are really doing that. So we will try to achieve that. Yes. So we always cater to a safety margin of around 20% spillover. The reason, let's say, it is an engineering system UC. Any performance is not up to the mark. We will, for sure, we will hold impact and rectify it and sell it. We have done it in '25 March. We did not get the satisfactory result in some painting products and all these things. So we decided not to sell to the market. So that is the 20% we always keep as a safety margin of spillover.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#79

Okay. Sir, the Rosenbauer CEO had visited us, I think, last month or so. Any update on that?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#80

Yes. He visited us, and I met him again last week in Austria along with the Global Sales Officer. I'm meeting him again on the 5th of June in Hannover, in one of the world's largest exhibition. So with this now continuing and we are expecting, again a high-level delegation from Rosenbauer in June.

Unknown Analyst

Okay. So that means after all these business only, we will get to know whether we can start making their machine, their CFT vehicles for the other countries, the Southeast Asian countries, their requirement, correct?

Correct, correct. So they're a 170-year-old company. They have to go through processes, quality standards and all these things. I think itself is a good step for us, that the CEO is visiting a very small like us. Great for us.

Sir, so just wanted to understand on your order part. Now I noticed with the INR 50 crores potential also in your kit, so what sort of big pipeline we are looking at? I mean something on the pipeline front and, I mean, able to quantify also what sort of big pipeline and conversion or what sort of order inflow we are expecting in next maybe, what, 3 months?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#89

Yes. Poddarji, one of the reasons why we had to gear up is the mapping of the market for the next 15 to 18 months. The main reason is two, three things. One is, the last 20 years, we have only been promoting one type of ADM rescue device. Last February, Rosenbauer International AG, through their Italian plant, have approved making an equally important set of machines but more in the industrial segment for high-rise firefighting rescue and evacuation. So this is also great demand in India, especially in petroleum sector, sometimes even in a civil municipal area. This is one reason. So we need to be able to be prepared for bidding for those projects. It will actually double our participation in aerial devices, number one. Number two, we have come to a strategic in principle arrangement with a manufacturer who is the main supplier to major baggage and system integrators, who themselves are qualified but who doesn't want to be a prime bidder in this part of the world. Actually, nowhere in the world they want be the prime bidder. And these projects are fairly large volumes in, let's say, project. So we should be able to -- we are qualified under Make in India, and this preferential share round will help us to be able to participate in this project and prepare when orders come our way.

What's the product name you mentioned, sir? Just sorry to interrupt.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#91

Baggage handling system, the second one. The other one is called aerial ladder platform. Anushree some time ago mentioned about turntable ladder. Turntable ladder is purely a civil rescue device. And aerial ladder platform is mainly for industries like refinery, industrial factors, roof maintenance and [indiscernible]. So this scanning or, let's say, mapping of the requirement, plus the additional program -- I forgot mention to you, the Bucher Municipal Corporation also has increased the product portfolio that they would like to manufacture with us. They have now included the product called is cleaner. Now many of the urban areas are getting flooded with even small amount of rain. City roads are fully inundated with floods. This is because of our inability to clear drains. And they stop and the water gets collected. So there is a huge demand for sewage cleaner and high-pressure washing machines. Manual cleaning is not a solution anymore because of the amount of debris and ducts that we get in the streets today. So we have -- on May 4, in Munich, we met with the senior management of Bucher Municipal Switzerland, and we agreed to -- we already ordered a [indiscernible]. So these projects will make us to be able to bid for higher capacity, higher high-value projects.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#92

Okay. Sir, I was just trying to ask how much we are trying to bid. I mean, is it possible to quantify in rupees crores? Is it INR 400 crores, INR 500 crores? I mean, how much you're bidding because of the additional fund we have got.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#93

Poddarji, at the moment, we are planning to bid for about -- this capacity, what we raised will help us to bid and secure up to around INR 350 crores capacity. Please don't misunderstand that I already got the order. I'm preparing myself to bid for it. And so my bidding capacity is over, and I have another bigger project, I will definitely give you a call.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#94

Understood. And what's the conversion we can expect here in the end of the year?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#95

Close to about 55%, 50%. I should be able to tell you that we are able to do that.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#96

My first question was answered. So on the second question, I wanted to understand the margins in your manufacturing versus trading versus AMC. And currently, I think FY '26, we did about 50% Manufacturing & Assembly. So how do you see that mix over the next 2, 3 years.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#97

Manufacturing & Assembly will be poised to grow and take a bigger percentage. This doesn't mean that the maintenance and spare part will come down, Poddarji, because every equipment we sell, we have the obligation to look after and supply for. You understand my point? Because they are special equipment, parts are specially manufactured, very niche product rent. So the more you sell, the more you have to maintain.

Unknown Analyst

Analysts
#98

Correct.. And the margin mix between these 3, manufacturing assembly versus trading versus AMC.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#99

As we move, I think we are doing 65% assembly and manufacturing. This is from, I don't know, 5% over 2 years. We grew to this area. And this should continue to grow.

Unknown Analyst

Okay. No, sir, I was trying to ask what is the margin in manufacturing and assembly versus your trading part. I just wanted to know the differential.

P. M. Nair

Anu will give you the percent margin, then we can talk.

Anushree Chaumal

Executives
#102

Thanks, Poddarji, for the question. So just to clarify that if you know in the beginning, we have taken certain projects at lower margins to grab the market. So we have a blended margin of around 15% in Manufacturing & Assembly. But in the Distribution business, we have a margin of around 20% in the current year. And over the period, we are going to maintain this margin by plus 5%.

Okay, okay. So your Distribution is high margin, distribution and trading.

It's not a product. But in the investor presentation, there is one -- in one of the slides you mentioned we are the only sole qualified bidder for one of the projects.

P. M. Nair

Executives
#112

We are sole in some of the projects because of the ability to do it in India. See, I would tell you, with all due respect to our colleagues in the industry, some of the defined don't allow the product to be assembled by us. For example, if you have to dismantle a chassis, insert a system, stabilize it or something like that in the chassis, you can forget about doing it anywhere else. So therefore, in some areas, at the moment, we have a little bit of a unique advantage. So let's say an early bird advantage. You understood my answer, sir?

Yes, yes. I understood, sir.

It's not that we are so special or we are innovative or anything like that. But the business strategy of some of our friends in the industry don't or they're basically sating don't allow them to do it in another location, so to say. But later on, I can give you the details.

I have a few questions. After meeting of Rosenbauer CEO, now can be able to get big orders for next quarter? And any plan to enter in service segment or export market? My second question is regarding potential interim domestic municipal corporation risk management. Any plan to develop any new product, [Foreign Language] precision engineering market, like [indiscernible]?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#123

Yes. Let me start from the first question, sir. The Rosenbauer CEO visit was kind of a culmination of the visit of a few other Board members. So from end of last year, early this year, some ending with their key technology or global key technology officers visited March. So we all prepared a report, visited some key customers. And then the CEO decided to meet us. So initially, some people came, qualified and then they came. And the CEO came. The intention -- or see, they are see India as a key market. India, they are seeing as the future. Thanks to our government, thanks to our people, that we are not fully embroiled in all the geopolitical wars and politics. So the last 11, 12 years, we have a very stable market, very stable economy, I mean, reasonably stable compared to others. So they see India as a strategic market, not just the CEO of Rosenbauer. At least 3 on 4 of our international partners are recognizing this, and they are all talking to us. Now the second question, whether we are able to do international service, this is we are already doing. For many countries including a trial, there are no young people to travel from Austria to do the business work, let's say, service work. So we have taken up that role. We have some brave young men who decided to travel and attend to several airport issues. We have people gone to [indiscernible], people have gone to Maldives, people have gone the Sri Lanka. So that is becoming an increasing trend because we are a 20-year-old experienced partners in service and maintenance. And I forgot about the last, the third question. Could you kindly remind me the last question, sir?

Regarding potential entry in domestic municipal corporation waste management, and any plan to develop new products for [indiscernible] engineering market like defense or aerospace?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#125

Yes. Yes. We have planned. We have already ordered key components from Bucher Municipal for civil cleaner, like I mentioned, in my answer to one of the pre-requirements. So that's the new product development which will be needed by many cities who are facing flooding issues. We are not there. We are still on manual cleaning at the moment. Many, many hundreds of multiple corporations are depending on manual cleaning. So thought I answered all your questions.

So any new product for the market of defense, aerospace?

P. M. Nair

Unknown Analyst

What is the single order size like we can bid for...

P. M. Nair

Executives
#134

Got it. So we are planning at least for 1 brownfield development of an existing airport, should be somewhere in the range of, I don't know, 150, 200 tonne range, we should be able to bid, which we have been avoiding in all these years. And also not only that, not only the brownfield product, some of the central procurement of Government of India are relatively larger in number for equipment because they buy for 30, 40 airports and distribute from Delhi.

Unknown Analyst

#135

And sir, what is the competition do we have in this order? Like is it like our other products where we have very less competition? Or is it like competitive?

P. M. Nair

Executives
#136

No. One of the advantages we had was that we were an early bird in Make in India, in this segment, at least. Therefore, every tender has a prequalification you see, where you should be qualified or your technology corporate and agreement partners should qualify. So we have a little bit of a unique position because we already crossed that threshold. So we are recognized as a Make in India partners now for most of the product that we have built. So some of the competitors are not yet there. That's the reason in some areas, we have come into a unique position. And the other advantage is that the product mix that we have covers the complete air side operation of an airport. For the equipment if you put together, you can easily run the airport. So therefore, we are qualified all of them. Then that means we are qualified in other projects, too.

So we are taking it as a market entry.
