The company delivered an EBITDA margin of 18% in FY25 v/s 6% in FY23, while its PAT margin rose to 12% from 3.5% over the same period. This strong financial performance led to a strong ROE of 63.7%.

GK Energy is empanelled under the PM-KUSUM scheme in Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh, which contributed 44%, 13%, 16%, 8%, and 5% of the total project sanctions.
At the upper price band of ₹153, GEL’s FY25 P/E ratio of 23.3x appears fairly priced compared to peers. GK Energy operates an asset-light, scalable EPC model, enabling rapid expansion without heavy capital investment. Its leadership in solar pump installations under the PM-KUSUM scheme, combined with expansion into rooftop solar and water infrastructure projects, positions it well to benefit from India’s renewable energy push. With strong execution capabilities and government-backed demand, GK Energy is poised for sustained growth. Therefore, we recommend a SUBSCRIBE rating for investors with a medium- to long-term horizon.
