Management commentary

Girish Tanti, Vice Chairman of Suzlon Group, said: “We are building a future-ready organisation focused on sustainable growth, reflected in our consistent performance over the last 11 quarters across PAT, revenue, and EBITDA. We’ve been entrusted with a record 6.2 GW order book by our customers. Our strategy of decoupling project development and execution will drive execution volumes significantly. With long-term visibility of 400 GW wind capacity by 2047, I’m confident we’ll continue leading the market.”

Should you buy, sell, or hold Suzlon Energy shares?

Analysts at Nuvama Institutional Equities have maintained their ‘Hold’ rating on Suzlon Energy. They view the company as a key beneficiary of the rising share of FDRE/RTC/hybrid tenders and PSU-led projects, supported by its strong commercial & industrial (C&I) exposure, which constitutes 54 per cent of its order book. The firm’s duopolistic position in EPC and WTG segments underpins its ability to sustain a market share of over 30 per cent.
 
The analyst retained a ‘Hold’ rating with a target price of ₹66 (down from ₹67), based on 40× FY27E WTG + F&F EPS and a discounted cash flow (DCF) of O&M business, noting limited upside even after rolling over to FY28E.
 
“While a strong H1FY26 implies roughly 2.75 GW deliveries for the year, we expect the wind industry to plateau at 8–10 GW over the next 2–3 years amid rising competition from solar plus BESS projects (e.g., RUMSL solar-BESS + thermal bids). Assuming Suzlon retains a 30–35 per cent share, execution is likely to flatten at 3–3.5 GW annually over FY27–28,” the note added.
 
The analysts, however, cautioned that higher growth or market share exceeding 3.5 GW annual deliveries for Suzlon in FY27–28 could act as an upside risk to their call.
