Growth thesis

Captain Polyplas provides micro-irrigation systems and solar EPC (rooftop and solar pumps), with micro-irrigation accounting for ~80-85% of revenue and solar EPC growing rapidly. Key segments include subsidy-driven micro-irrigation, solar pumps (1,000+ quarterly execution capacity), and the Ahmedabad plant manufacturing high-margin components. Growth will be driven by solar EPC scaling to 50% of revenue by FY28, Ahmedabad plant margin improvements (1-1.5% EBITDA lift), and export expansion targeting double-digit micro-irrigation revenue in five years. Over 2-3 years, solar EPC could dominate revenue while micro-irrigation leverages the Ahmedabad plant to reach INR400 crores revenue without additional capex. Execution risks include subsidy disbursement delays and competitive pressures in solar rooftop markets.

Why is Captain Polyplas stock rising?

• Targeting average growth of 20-25% over next three years for micro-irrigation business
• Targeting solar EPC segment contribution to equal micro-irrigation in next two years (50-50 mix)
• Ahmedabad plant expected to improve micro-irrigation EBITDA margin by 1-1.5% once fully operational
• Focusing on increasing non-subsidy segment in micro-irrigation to improve working capital efficiency
• Export contribution planned to move to double digit in next five years
