Operationally, Venus Pipes announced multiple expansion initiatives during the quarter. The company said the remaining capacity expansion for seamless pipes, tubes, and fittings has recently commenced operations.

The board also approved a Rs 70 crore capex plan for its entry into spooling solutions. The expansion is backed by a Rs 185 crore Letter of Intent from a leading customer in the data centre segment.

Additionally, the company installed a new JCO machine worth Rs 12 crore to manufacture higher-length welded pipes, while work is also progressing on a 6.1 MW solar power project aimed at reducing long-term power costs.

Brokerage firm Nuvama Institutional Equities reiterated its ‘Buy’ rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 2,000 following the results announcement.

According to the brokerage, the newly commissioned capacities for seamless pipes, fittings, and mother hollows are expected to support over 25% revenue growth, margin improvement, and stronger order inflows in FY27 and beyond.
