Financial Performance of Waaree Energies

Waaree Energies has experienced robust financial growth in recent years. Its total income surged from ₹1,983 crore in FY21 to ₹6,860 crore in FY23, driven by the increasing demand for solar modules. Profits also saw a significant rise, growing from ₹46 crore in FY21 to ₹500 crore in FY23. In Q1 of FY24, Waaree posted a profit of ₹338 crore, reflecting its continued strong performance.

Renewable Energy Industry Outlook

India’s renewable energy sector is on an impressive growth trajectory, with the country ranking fourth globally in renewable energy capacity, particularly in solar and wind installations. According to a Crisil report, India's installed renewable energy capacity rose from 63 GW in FY12 to 191 GW by March 2024. Solar energy has been a primary driver of this growth, with renewable sources now accounting for 43% of the country’s total power generation capacity.

Waaree Energies stands to benefit from this momentum as India continues to push toward cleaner energy alternatives, aiming to achieve 60 GW in renewable energy capacity by 2032.

Lead Managers

The IPO is being managed by a consortium of book-running lead managers, including Axis Capital, IIFL Securities, Jefferies India, Nomura Financial Advisory, SBI Capital Markets, Intensive Fiscal Services, and ITI Capital.

With its leading position in the solar PV manufacturing sector and an aggressive expansion plan, Waaree Energies' IPO offers a promising opportunity for investors looking to capitalize on India's growing renewable energy sector. As the company continues to scale its operations, this IPO could be a pivotal moment for both Waaree and the country's solar industry.

Stay tuned as Waaree Energies moves closer to its IPO date, marking a key moment in India’s renewable energy journey.
