ICRA’s view on Tejas Networks

 

The Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan of the Government of India (GoI), which is aimed at limiting import dependence and increasing the demand for indigenous products, provides better growth opportunities for the company.

 

ICRA in a rating rationale dated March 31, 2025, notes that moderation in the operating income is likely to put pressure on the company's profit margins. Thus, the addition of the order book remains a key monitorable. Further, Tejas Network’s profitability and cash flows are also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuation risks.

 

Tejas Networks has also entered into technology collaboration agreements with NEC Corporation, Japan (NEC), for the development of advanced wireless technologies for the global telecom industry. As part of the technology collaboration agreement, it will have to pay ~USD 60 million to NEC over the next one year, as per the milestones.
