Key developments during the quarter included securing a 250 MW solar module supply order from Bondada Group in Maharashtra, 326 MW orders from Gujarat Industries Power Company Limited (GIPCL), and 336 MW orders from Larsen & Toubro (L&T).

Vikram Solar also strengthened its industry standing by being recognized as Top Brand PV India 2025 by EUPD Research, achieving “Top Performer 2025” status in Kiwa PVEL’s PQP for the eighth time, and receiving an EcoVadis Platinum Medal, placing it among the top one percent of companies worldwide for sustainability performance.

Commenting on the results, Gyanesh Chaudhary, Chairman and Managing Director of Vikram Solar, said that FY26 has started on a strong note, with robust growth in revenue, profitability, and margins. He highlighted the company’s healthy order pipeline, expansion of manufacturing capacity, and backward integration into solar cell production, which will strengthen supply chain security and competitiveness. He further emphasized that industry tailwinds such as the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative, policy support through PLI schemes, customs duties, and green hydrogen ambitions are creating the right environment for a self-reliant solar value chain in India.
