The total order stands for ₹426.87 Crore, which includes ₹290.28 Crs. from Marine Segment and ₹136.59 Crs from Industrial segments.

NSE listed Marine Electricals (India) Limited, an integrated technical solution provider in the field of electrical automation, announced the receipt of the letter of acceptance aggregating to Rs. 81.18 Crore from Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers (GRSE) for the supply & service of Integrated Bridge System (IBS) for Anti-submarine Warfare Shallow Water Craft (ASW SWC) Project.

The overall Order Book for the Company stands at ₹426.87 Crore, which forms ~ 1.5 times FY20 marine revenue. Total Order book includes orders of ₹290.28 Crs. from Marine Segment and ₹136.59 Crs from Industrial segments.

Commenting on recent Order Intake, Mr. Vinay Uchil, Chairman and Wholetime Director commented, “With yet another order from GRSE, we are happy to see the significant uptick in the order inflows underscoring strong tailwinds for the sector. The Indian shipyards have seen strong traction in the last few years in terms of order intake and with the renewed thrust of the Government, order inflows for shipyards expected to be quite strong for the construction of new vessels in the next few years. As an approved vendor within the Marine electrical & electronics ecosystem, this augurs well for MEL as it provides strong visibility of orders with progress of ship constructions at shipyards. With the current order book and a robust outlook for potential orders, MEL is well placed to drive strong revenue and profitability growth on the back of the Marine segment. With our order book at ₹426.87 Crore as of the date and a strong execution run-rate that we are seeing over the past few months, we are excited about entering the new financial year on a very solid base to bounce back from the pandemic related disruptions to our growth story.”
