Infrastructure Companies Anticipate Margin Recovery from Q2FY27 Amid Cost Pressure Easing
Infrastructure companies are expected to see margin recovery from the second quarter of FY27 as project execution improves and cost pressures ease, according to a Centrum report. Despite near-term margin softness due to higher input costs, companies have maintained their FY27 guidance on revenue, margins, and order inflows. The sector showed mixed performance in Q1FY27, with strong order momentum but profitability under pressure from commodity inflation, higher royalties, and elevated employee expenses. Some companies reported margin gains from operating leverage and forex benefits.
