Ladies and gentlemen, good day, and welcome to the H.G. Infra Engineering Q2 FY '23 Earnings Conference Call hosted by Go India Advisors. [Operator Instructions] Please note that this conference is being recorded. I now hand the conference over to Ms. Sana Kapoor from Go India Advisors. Thank you, and over to you.
Thank you, Inba. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to H.G. Infra Engineering Limited earnings call to discuss the Q2 and H1 FY '23 results. We have on the call Mr. Harendra Singh, Chairman and Managing Director; Mr. [ Arvan Khandelwal ], President, Strategy; and Mr. Rajeev Mishra, Chief Financial Officer.
We must remind you that the discussion on today's call may include certain forward-looking statements and must therefore be viewed in conjunction with the risks that the company faces. May I now request Mr. Harendra Singh to take us through the company's business outlook and performance subsequent to which we will open the floor for Q&A. Thank you, and over to you, sir.
Yes. Thank you, Sana. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for joining us on Q2 and H1 FY '23 earnings call today. Hope you all are in high spirits and keeping fine. I trust that you would have looked at the earnings presentation uploaded on the exchanges and company's website and as you would have seen from our presentation, there has been another good quarter for the company and that is despite being the weak quarter across the sector due to the prolonged monsoons.
As a listed company, over the last 5 years, we have ensured that all our efforts are in a direction which create superior shareholder value, and we will continue to focus on building sustainable long-term value on them -- for them. Our strong focus is always on growing bottom line, maintaining strong balance sheet and selection of high-quality projects to outline our order book.
Let me give you some update on the information first of all. [indiscernible] As you can see that coming to the NHAI tendering status, NHAI has set full year target of 6,500 kilometers of road projects to be awarded this year which is a bit slow in the first half of this financial year, which is likely to pick up in the second half of this year, which gives us the opportunity for bringing new projects and further strengthening of our order book as a priority sector.
Railways as well, there are a lot of development in the railways, which are announced in the recent past The -- a total of 1253 railway stations that have been identified for development under the Adarsh railway development scheme. That is more in the railway station, modernization of railway station of as many as 199 stations are likely to be awarded this year. So we have budget for queue and we are paced to build many in this sector.
Apart from this, other track doubling and high-speed network corridors are all there, which are to be developed and [ DPL ] stage. Water is again our priority focus, which we, again, are making us to bid MS JJM in Rajasthan, UP and [ LD ] state.
All these developments will give a lot of opportunity to us to enter into these segment and diversity business beyond groups.
Let me first start with quarterly financial performance. So during the quarter, we reported a revenue of INR 752.1 crore. At a stand-alone level, just the revenue for the outstanding period last year stood at INR 753.2 crores. The EBITDA stood at INR 120.8 crores in Q2 FY '23 and EBITDA margin stood at 15.1% in Q2 FY '23.
The EBITDA margin stood moreover at the same level with last year despite increase in the cost of materials, but our drive with better operational efficiencies, strong execution capability has been leading to the cost in margins.
Profit before tax for Q2 FY '23 stood at INR 86.24 crores and profit after tax for the same period at INR 64.6 crores.
Now coming to the half yearly financial performance at a standalone level. Our total revenue for H1 FY '23 stood at INR 1,817.74 crores an increase of 9.05% year-on-year as compared to INR 1,666.81 crores in H1 FY '22.
EBITDA stood at to be INR 283.20 crores as compared to INR 275.80 crores same period last year. EBITDA margin at H1 FY '23 stood at 15.6% and PAT stood at INR 162.3 crore for H1 FY '23 as compared to INR 158.80 crores during the same period last year. And PAT margin for H1 FY '23 stood at 8.9%.
Our total gross debt as on 30th September 2022, stood at INR 392.2 crores at stand-alone levels. This includes working capital debt of INR 42.4 crores and term loans plus current maturities of INR 349.8 crores.
That is also payable under MSME trade receivables, and INR 66.6 crores, and NCD of INR 97 crores.
Our total gross debt at consol level stood at INR 1,425.3 crores, which includes [indiscernible] debt of INR 1,033.1 crores.
I will now briefly cover key updates on our operational highlights of prominent projects. Our total unlimited order book stood at INR 10,851 crores as on 30th September which with our presence in 9 states of the country, and it is well diversified with 54% of the EPC projects and 36% HAM projects.
We are pleased to inform you that we have recently received the appointed date at 3 November 2022 for our most prestigious [indiscernible]. We have almost 94% plus land is available, and we have started the execution on this project.
Coming to the progress of other major EPC projects, In Delhi-Vadodara (PKG-8), we are inching toward the completion of the project as we have made good progress and have completed around 92%. We expect the project to be completed in this quarter say, quarter 3.
In Delhi Vadodara (PKG-9), where we have completed around 81%, we expect the project to be completed by February '23.
In the Mancherial project of Adani, we have completed around 72% and applied from PCOD, which is likely to be received in November '22, and the project is expected -- and that project is expected to be completed by -- in Q4.
In UER P1 [indiscernible] for Delhi, we have completed 27.4% of the work, which is learning as for the scheduled time lines. In [indiscernible] project, we have mobilized our resources at project sites and execution work has been done or the posit date, which has been -- which is 25 August '22.
Coming to our HAM project center execution, which are also progressing well as per the schedule time line.
In the Rewari bypass project, we have completed around 86%, and we are moving ahead for project completion as per the schedule time line. In Raipur-Visakhapatnam AP 1 corridor, we have completed 13% of the project. Further in 2 HAM projects of Raipur-Visakhapatnam that are the [indiscernible] packages 5 and 6. We have completed about 8.4% and 12%, respectively.
In Khammam-Devarapalle package 1 and 2, we have received our appointed date on 30th September 2022 for KD package 2 and post our financial closure declared on 15 September 2022 for KD Package, the target is likely to be declared very soon.
We have started the project decision on these projects post all these developments. Almost 80% plus land is available in these 2 projects. For all land projects, we have a total equity requirement of INR 1,137 crores that is projected till FY '25. Out of the total amount, we have already invested INR 609.54 crore as of 30th September 2022.
And we project to invest some INR 200 crores in this beginning part of this financial year. It is important to update the other significant development of project and at a national level. We have received the completion certificate for Gurgaon-Sohna health in September. That's where we received the [indiscernible] 25th of February 2022. As of Narnaul Bypass we received the [indiscernible] letter from the RD where the completion was with [indiscernible] of preform 11 March 2022.
At this point, I feel immensely proud and glad to share that we have been awarded as the fastest-growing construction company in medium sector in October 2022, at the Construction World Global Awards 2022. This is our financial indicators of last minus 5 years, which shows our strong presence and determination in this sector.
Well, our guidance on the bidding outlook and the business opportunity. We are very positive on the sector outlook and opportunities in the second half of this financial year as covered in my opening remarks that tendering is expected to show a strong figure, which gives us the opportunity for winning new projects and further standing of our order book. We are all aware that government is taking numerous initiatives in various infrastructure development programs, including the national infrastructure pipeline, the [indiscernible] program that will give chance to various sector and ample opportunities on the clear guidance. We at H.G. are readying our self for the next level of growth through various steps.
Like in last quarter, we have initiated various in-house initiatives to strengthen our regional capabilities and enrich our system and processes, but new synergies in our thought process with external environmental like vendor needs and an operational needs with the project and top management interaction and with stakeholders.
This will help us to build a robust business model, having a complete integration and operations, along with a large fleet of in-house equipment and scale human results. Our strong focus is on operational efficiency, cost optimization and strong project execution skills that give us the confidence to close this financial year close to our earlier stated guidance with 25% growth year-on-year and EBITDA margin close to 60% plus as compared to last year.
Our key focus ahead will be on winning selective projects that complement our order book and ensure efficiencies. Our goal is to achieve additional guiding numbers of INR 4,000 crores to INR 5,000 crores new order inflow in this financial year.
Now I would like the moderator to open the floor for question and answer. Thank you.
[Operator Instructions] The first question is from the line of Shravan Shah from Dolat Capital.
Sir, first, coming on the guidance front. So you mentioned in your opening remark of 25% growth. So does that mean we are looking at INR 4,500 crores revenue versus year guidance of INR 5,000 crores and now are we confident to achieve this INR 4,500 crores? Or is there also a possibility to slightly even further lower number by the year-end?
See, as it is all evident that this year, the monsoon has early arrival to prolonged monsoon and entire country [indiscernible]. But this is the first factor which has affected the progress during the quarter 2. And again, if you see to the appointed date which likely was supposed to be the of [indiscernible] September to sometime in September which has been delayed by 1.5 months as per our expectations, affecting the progress. This has impacted almost INR 150-odd crores progress all together in quarter 2. But again, as we are very clear on it, the appointed dates of almost all the projects are in hand and execution in all the project. So with that, we don't see much of a challenge this quarter, 2 ways, definitely quarter 3, quarter 4, whatever is possible, we would be likely to cope up with that.
And for 25% plus means around INR 4,600 crores, around INR 4,600 crores, we will be reaching this year. And with the major execution, which we have looked into, would be coming in quarter 3 and quarter 4 will be from Raipur Vishakhapatnam all 3 packages of HAM -- and the next project of course, would be the one which will be the major contributor in terms of quarter 3. Then UER package again, we did INR 183 crores in last quarter and delivered the package 8 and 9 we again did commit to [ INR 281 crores ] in last quarter around INR 300 crores is left in [indiscernible] packages and again, INR 900-odd crores left in UER package.
There again, our most execution is at the very good trend. We have INR 200 crores of execution expected in quarter 3 and 200 crores plus in quarter 4. So this is now gives us a fair outlook that we would be reaching the INR 4,600 crores levels.
So broadly, we did INR 1,800-odd crores. So to reach INR 4,600 crores, we need INR 2,800-odd crore around INR 1,300 crores, INR 1,400 crores run rate would be required in third and fourth quarter. So that can be doable. And also for the FY '24 previously, we were looking at INR 6,000-odd crores revenue. So what's the new number? And in terms of the margin when we say 16% plus. So that is for entire full year of FY '23? Or in the second half, we are looking at 16% plus margin.
The trend of margin has now been restored that again, we can say last say, almost 4, 5 quarters, we read -- we were really wondered with pressure of the commodity price. Now it is all back on track, the 16%-plus margins, which we always visible low. At quarter 3 and quarter 4 altogether INR 2,800 crores, definitely in quarter 3 we always see that the quarter comes at about 35% to [ 50% ]. So there, we are very clear about it that quarter 4 would be a really a big number. But ultimately in quarter 3 and 4, it could be coming at INR 2,800 crore, roughly.
And for the next year, FY '24?
Next year, definitely, we will be on same track as we have already seen at about 22%, 25% year-on-year. That is it, which you can see the 4,600 if we add some 22% to that as it's coming at around for 5,800 to 6,000.
Okay, okay. And on the order inflow, last time when we said we will be looking at close to INR 3,000 crores, to INR 3,500 crores from HAM and INR 1,000 to INR 1,500 crores from the other JJM and NHAI EPC that remains the same? Or are we now looking at more delivery orders than the NHAI EPC orders?
Of course, as already addressed in the opening remarks that in railway remodeling the new contracts coming in on the EPC world from railway where we have already bidded 3 of the stations, those we could not on those projects earlier on. But now we again believe that EPC of NHAI or EPC of railways any EPC of water together, would come at about, say, INR 1,500 and balance INR 3,500 odd crores will be coming from HAM.
And then any of the projects in terms of the value size apart from drill wave, where we have bidded and what's the value and where we have bidded when likely the results are to come?
We are already some 15,000-odd crores of project bidded in 11,000 in NHAI and some 4,000 in our railway and railway stations and the water where I think there are more big bids which are yet to be open.
Okay. On the equity front, just you mentioned INR 200 crores this second half also in FY '24 and '25, how much will be leading then in terms of the monetization we were previously looking at 4 HAM projects. So any progress? When can we see the announcement from that front.
The total equity requirement for, say, FY '24 and '25 after this INR 200 crores as already [indiscernible] crores. Out of this INR 600 crores we already invested in from INR 200 would be invested in the later half of the year. So the balance would be in '24 and '25 hardly it is coming at about INR 190 crores in '24 and [indiscernible] in '25.
Mr. Shah, may we request you to return to the queue, there are several participants waiting for their turn.
[Operator Instructions] The next question is from the line of Mohit Kumar from DAM Capital.
Congratulations on a very, very good order book, sir. 2 questions. First is, how the road bidding pipeline looking like from NHAI side, till date, I think the bidding has a pretty luke warm and do you have any -- are we seeing a higher portion of HAM in the pipeline?
See as almost as one expected in first half of this year, not much of the bidding activity, which has been experienced in the last few years. But as we already guided, I think it's 6,000-plus kilometers to be awarded by NHAI this year. They were looking at a few modifications into the cash support from NHAI from [ 40% ] to [ 20% ] which is in that at the advanced stage of discussion. But by that time, I think now we have seen that almost they are around 60-odd bid which are to be, say, bear to be awarded within this quarter 3. So this is a clarity that now in NHAI again with all major are not many, but definitely a few of the people view these.
Okay. So expect H2, the order you are bidding to pick up substantially. Is that right, sir?
Yes.
And second question, sir, on the railway side. I think you gave a detailed outlook on the opportunities. Are you looking at railway station redevelopment work? And does it mean that we need to build some capabilities and investment in the resources?
Well, I think you can see the revenue of the redevelopment work like station building terminal building. It doesn't require much of a ticket. It's a bigger the procurement and literally [indiscernible]. But these are good work, which we believe they are the [indiscernible] frame structure work, which gives us a possibility and opportunity that we may go for any of the [indiscernible] Administration.
Mr. Mohit Kumar may we request you to return to the queue, please. [Operator Instructions] We'll take a next question from the line of Parikshit Kandpal from HDFC Securities.
Congratulations on a decent quarter, especially tight concerning the balance sheet and working capital. My first question is what is the total order inflows for financial year-to-date? And for the next year, how are you looking to replace this large order of under expression bulky order, which is coming, will it be a tough task to exceed this year's order inflows.
For sure, I think which initially, as we expect that INR 9,000 plus crores to be added during the year with INR 4,500 crore orders are already there. We are now were at ease. But now again, as usually happens in years that around INR 3,000 crores to INR 4,000 crores of orders of NHAI, HAM or EPC, you will be in the last 2 years' trend. In price process good, say, any of the orders having bearing good profit. That is the first focus. And then again, beyond about BR highways, which we read in railways, we have already pointed that has a really new track on a link or those things. And high-speed networks, which are we at a word stage, which likely to come in later half of this year or next year.
Again, it would be the likely a portion railway other than the railway remodeling the stations. And again, in water, we have already bidded some 3 of the pivot. So we look forward back in quarter 3 and quarter 4. So altogether, we would be looking into the mix balance of all the 3, 4 sectors.
Okay. The second question is on the monetization to now already from the [indiscernible]. We have projects where we have achieved upon the COD. So what's the time line for monetization? And how much of -- how many projects or value of the book value equity, you're looking to monetize.
Again, I think it is almost 2, 3 quarters, it was a standstill that is really, say, has been initiated at again, a very aggressive pace in quarter 2 of this year. So we are now having 3 particular proposals going on side by side. And we are working on it. And most likely, by end of this year the deal would be concluded and we are there, we are getting a good response from the investors, because we are all working and we also are waiting for the entire completion of which we have completed in 2 of the projects COD repeat.
And just one project where a portion is left out already in November '21, we received were daily. But the entire completion of the budget is done and maybe so we will be continuing [indiscernible] it's all about projects see almost INR 350-odd-crores equity, which we are looking that at least we should have a decent step up about 40%, that is about 12% plus [indiscernible] number.
40% premier to your INR 350 crores in equity industries is what you are looking at.
We will take our next question from the line of Ashish Shah from Centrum Broking.
Sir, I know you've given an overall guidance for the execution for the year but just wanted to understand that a couple of projects like OD-5, OD-6, we haven't seen a great lot of progress in the first half. I mean after the appointed dates have been received sometime in end of May. So what is the reason why the pickup has been a little on the slower side.
See, this monsoon again in north and south, it behaves differently, okay? So you can see in this eastern half where this was recorded [indiscernible] not much of the progress is visible. It's hardly in all these 3 projects it is hardly about, say, INR 150-odd crores is the progress during the quarter which not would have been much better. But now we are there, they have mobilized. We have having the entire resources waiting for the smaller withdrawal and that has now we restore that and we would be coming back to the track. We will be progressing very good progress to these projects for quarter 3 and quarter 4.
So any number you'd like to put, let's say, by the end of the year, in OD-5, OD-6 and UP-1 .
All key corridors in Raipur Vishakhapatnam we would be doing INR 325-odd crores at quarter 3 and around INR 350-odd crore in quarter 4.
Sure. And..
We are around INR 2,700 crores [indiscernible] as on 30 September.
Okay. Sure. Also, on Ganga Expressway, how is the ramp-up likely? How much do you expect to execute by this financial year-end and how much you're looking at next financial year?
Earlier, it was expected about INR 1,000 crores of execution during the financial year. But now just say, we would be looking at INR 700 crores because of almost, almost delay of about 1.5 months or 2 months period. So that is one reason. And again, if you see that not the [indiscernible] of our range in effect projects, which were have been started, then I think that -- and [indiscernible] activities is that hampered a lot. In any case, we were INR 300 odd crores, which is likely to be where INR 5,000 crores gone out is likely to be going down to INR 4,600 crores exactly, and that is a big reason.
So INR 700 crores this year and next year, what would be the number, sir?
That's it. Definitely, we will be looking at about INR 2,000 crores of execution coming out from the last [indiscernible].
We'll take the next question from the line of Jiten Rushi from Axis Capital.
My first question, when I was reconciling the revenue based on our order backlog opening and closing order backlog. So the revenue change to be INR 656 crores. So I think our reported number, it is short by INR 96 crores. So any other revenue other than the execution you've booked in the quarter, sir?
What you are saying that the amount which you have seen is different INR 750 off crores..
The reconciliation is...
I think number this number coming from price variation as well.
It's price variation and sir, and any really utility shifting on something like that?
A minor number, not a big numbers, INR 15, INR 20 crores is coming from the utility shifting O&M revenue [indiscernible]. And a major number is about 8% to 10% is coming from price variation and [indiscernible].
And sir, on the book keeping side, can you just highlight the outstanding mobilization advance and yield revenue retention money? And if you can give us the breakup of debtors if it is possible, sir, as on September?
Yes, sure. I think it has been reduced by INR 337 crores which you see altogether because of debtor including retention. Okay, INR 373 crores at June 30, now it's gone down to [indiscernible] . Though it has become a increase in the contract effects because media motion is in i[indiscernible], DB mine which is approaching completion. This is, again, a significant number is there, which is certain over likely to be there in quarter 3 only on this. And a bit of a high projects and direct in the shares. So all together, this is a increase in INR 100 crore on contract as it is likely to come down again to the same range we have always do 300 to 350 odd crores. But debtors would not be doing anything major capacity would be coming. I don't see unless we got better.
The question has been incomplete. So let me get the answer please.
And this is regarding the debtor regarding...
I just didn't get the number. What is the outstanding unbilled number and what is outstanding mobility advances [indiscernible].
So unbilled number is INR 458 crores deal. We are the major I already given the [indiscernible], which again is to drop down to INR 350 crore, not beyond that. Whether it's on the [indiscernible] nearing completion and than projects again where we have completed, we are [indiscernible].
I think [indiscernible] has been increased by INR 3 odd crore and again, we again are in terms of that, that increase in the order book, which is [ INR 347 crores ].
And retention, sir?
Retention is normal.
That is what? INR 2...
INR 175 crores.
[Operator Instructions] The next question is from the line of Romil Jain from Electrum PMS.
Sir, I hope you can hear me.
Sure.
Yes. Sir, actually, I just missed, I could not hear properly. What is the equity requirement for current year and '24 and '25.
Current year balance it is INR 200 crores for the better part of this year and next year, it is coming at around INR 190 crores. [ INR 50 crores ], we have already invested in [indiscernible].
Okay. And '25?
Balances coming in '25 hardly is coming at from around INR 100 crores.
Okay. Okay. Got it. And sir, one question on the competition. So as you mentioned, most of the projects are HAM from NHAI. So how is the competitive intensity in the last couple of months? And do we see some kind of pressure in the competitive intensity?
No. EPC is not yet improved, but definitely HAM, the major shift has been there. I think now the number of players are getting lesser and lesser. And with that, again the percentage where the discounts were part time, now we have seen a premium over it.
For the upcoming projects?
Upcoming projects from the recent past year the [indiscernible] like the [ art ] is a bit better compared to winter. As earlier now has been improved.
Okay. But any specific reason why it has been improved, I mean, there are players who are not able to bid or capital issues are there?
Actually, not a big reason, but definitely, you can consider that a major initial say, about 20, 25 bidders were there, which was a small midsize company. We are having of the appetite or in HAM, they are not participating much now.
We'll take our next question from the line of Nikhil Abhyankar from DAM Capital.
I'm really sorry I had joined the call late. So have you mentioned your guidance for FY '23, the revenue, EBITDA margin and the order inflow.
I can repeat it to about [indiscernible] INR 4,600 crores and EBITDA to INR 6,800 crores plus somewhere in that range.
Okay. And OI sir, INR 9,000 crore to INR 10,000 crores?
Order we already received is INR 4500 crores Over the INR 4,500 crores likely to be added during the year in roads and other sectors.
Understood. Sir, and you also mentioned that we are looking at the railway station orders. So I would like to know that whether the margin profile on these projects will be the same as our current margin?
We are keeping our intent clear that we would be not going for further sales to low margins or any of the rest of the season.
[Operator Instructions] The next question is from the line of Sarvesh Gupta from Maximal Capital.
One question is on these large projects like Ganga Expressway which you have in your order book. So do you expect the margins to be in similar range? Or do you see any efficiencies or do you see because these are very large orders that you have got? You see some sort of a lowering of margins?
Probably I can understand your question. Say in any case this 150 kilometer is a huge magnitude, say INR 4,500 crores tying to Raipur Vishakhapatnam package, again, about INR 3,000 crores. So this gives the busters approach, where the margins definitely options are much better. The margin would be good. No doubt that it was -- there was a bit of a shrinkage in the earlier quarters. Now we are coming back to the track. 15% less margin would be there.
Understood. And secondly, in railways, while we've been trying to enter these 2 segments, railways, water, but we haven't yet got any significant sort of order which will move...
No, I think it isn't -- is that we need to be very -- thought needs to be there. No doubt, we are having a clarity on that, but we should not be compromising the margin compromise with our [indiscernible]. So we are on track. We would be getting the orders. When it is as we are looking for 10% to 15% this year for the other sector.
And in railways, specifically, sir, some of the other EPC players have burned their rents badly in terms of track laying and many other activities.
There is a big change in the execution pattern. As you can see in last few years in NHAI also the earlier the land was not there. Project with us over time over a long way are 4 to 5 years completion and now it is coming at 2 years, 2.5, 3 years. So again, the big change is coming there in the railway as well. This is all shifting monitoring program. it happens like that, the things have been monitored very closely.
In HAM, we are expecting around INR 350 crores released this year. Is that right? And what is the expectation.
If the deal is going to be completed this year. The fund may or may not come this year, but definitely as a deep elude in this financial year, we won't take so we would be getting the funds.
Can -- just 1 second, this is the continuation of the same question. So the next 18 months, what are we expecting of the overall equity release from the HAM projects?
Release?
Release sir, I mean the HAM monetization, what are we expecting the equity amount to be monetized for this 18 months, let's say, this 6 months and next 12 months of the next financial year.
This is INR 350 crores of total equity, all for the 4 projects, which are in proposal for monetization. So where exactly we are looking at 40% over the deployed. But again, we can expect in next year, 18 months away from now.
Our next question is from the line of Jiten Parmar from Aurum Capital.
Yes. My question is basically on the consolidated margins, we did 19% last year. Are we on track to maintain that or better that for this year? And what is the outlook for next year?
Currently for the first half of this year is at 18.9%. You are talking of the consolidated margin?
Right.
It would be in the range of about 19% to 20%. That would be the range.
And for next year also, you are guiding the same.
Probably it may increase with the entire monetization if you think of a [ CV ] level where the loan and few periods on incurred, but the revenue is not yet realized.
Okay. My second question is on the order inflow. So I think you answered that, but I couldn't get it clearly. for Half 2, you are saying that you should get order inflow of around INR 4,500 crores, just want to make sure of that, is that right?
Definitely, we are looking at it about INR 3,200 crores, INR 3,500 crores coming from HAM projects of NHAI and other than that EPC NHAI or other sectors.
Our next question is from Shravan Shah from Dolat Capital.
Yes. Sir, Khammam-Devarapalle P1 appointed date will be expected by?
By 10th of November -- sorry, the terms of November, [ JMF ] has been already signed. Within next few days, we will be getting that allocated.
Okay. in next. So before this month end, we will be having the appointed date.
Yes, for sure.
Yes. Second is in terms of the CapEx for this one, we have done INR 149 odd crore. Previously, we were looking at even a sale of the equipment at INR 135-odd crore for this year?
I can give a clarity on the breakup of the CapEx, which has been done and that is likely to be done. So this is INR 134 crore of CapEx out of the INR 18 crores. Earlier this capital emerging progress, which is there, it is for our camp development, which earlier on was expense the capital to work in progress? To be depreciated within say, 2, 3 years of the relation of the contract. So that is how the number looks today.That is how INR 91 crores of CapEx was multi [indiscernible]. INR 25 crores of land and building are there and INR 30 crores of camp there with a total INR 150-odd crores again of CapEx done another seen some INR 45 odd crores would be done in this year, INR 45 crores is likely to be received for the disposal of the old assets.
Okay. Okay. Got it. And in terms of the debt level, which is INR 392-odd crore. So by March and we will be seeing some reduction from here on?
Yes, INR 350 crores to INR 400 crores, that is the magic number, which should be there.
Okay. Okay. And lastly, on the -- we were expected to get the INR 26 crore bonus in the second quarter.
This again is at a competitive authority approval level and in quarter 3, we will be getting.
So we will be getting INR 26 crores in the third quarter? And is there any other projects that we'll be getting a bonus in fourth quarter?
No, as of now, there's no possibility.
Our next question is from Jiten Rushi from Axis Capital.
In the railway bids [indiscernible] bidding for the railway lining projects also on the station redevelopment projects. So these projects are we qualified or we shall be bidding in joint ventures?
So mostly, we are qualified in matter on the side of our projects. And if in case of a typical requirement, qualification requirement, we are already are tied up, we would be doing for those interest 2 projects. Most of the project are bidded as a single entity.
So what is the size till which we can bid as an independent entity.
It's almost at a level of INR 1,000 crores or even INR 1,400 crores, we are eligible for those projects.
Is it 1,500?
Yes. I think we are not getting many projects, which size is over INR 800 crores or INR 1,000 crores, but we are eligible.
And so water project, obviously, will go in joint venture.
That is with a partner, yes.
And sir, on the escalation part. So these projects are mostly commodity-driven projects. So these projects will include escalation, right, sir?
Every project is having the site escalation blocks.
So that should not be the challenge for us. And sir, on the margin front, obviously, you've given that H2 should be better in terms of EBITDA margin. But sir, going forward, you said that there are large for large ticket projects like you are executing like the Raipur project, the Sitarganj, Adani project. So in that, we are seeing like a 15% margin so do we see that going forward margin. Overall should come down to 15%, 15.5% against 16%, 16.5% which you said?
I don't see now or work with the commodity size always has cooled down and now it was at a transition stage. So whatever build we have done with 1.5 years back. Now we are getting the equivalent price installation or so that is not a similar number. We don't expect that 15% plus margin would be, say, the question in coming months or coming years.
Sir, in the revenue terms, you said INR 2,000 crores we expect from the Ganga Expressway in FY '24. So what kind of revenue you're expecting from the Raipur package and the DV 1 and 2 in FY '24, sir?
If you can just leave looking to the breakup of that, whichever project where we are like targeted to complete by June'24, sorry, May '24 rather. So then in any case, the most portion would be completed in -- at '24.
Next question. You said that you're expecting a revenue of INR 5,800 crores to INR 6,000 crore.
At least that would be coming at about say [ INR 300 ] to [indiscernible] of revenue all 3 packages on Raipur Vishakhapatnam by FY '24.
And on the Khammam-Devarapalle package 1 and 2 how much do we expect in the DV or how much do we expecting by FY '24?
So probably, it is the entire order book, which is about INR 10,800-odd crore, which is supposed to be completed by the time of this year and FY '24 in November '24. So with that you can very well understand. The majority of the project where we would be targeting within the similar timeline where the land is not challenge, and where other challenges are not there. We believe we are according to compete and coding to are also prepared to execute from all times.
We'll take our next question from the line of Prem Khurana from Anand Rathi Share.
Sir, my question was with respect to hybrid annuity, and we already have 2 which are operational now and we've started receiving annuities as well. So one was to understand if are receiving our annuities in time. Second is essentially given the fact that both these are such an operational, so have you been able to manage refinancing of these assets? I mean has the interest rate come down? And what's the spread now that you're able to make with this. And just to continue on this, I mean you spoke about some 40-odd percent premium that you expect once you want to sell these assets, right? So is that a hurdle trait? I mean if let's say, I mean there's a buyer who doesn't agree to 40%, would you be willing to settle for a little lower number or not?
In the first part there, you are saying that the entire -- this project which we have completed COD, we are getting the right annuity on right on time, number one. The operation costs and maintenance costs, which we are incurring with sales very below the what we are getting from NHAI that is not in control. The number which has been integrated as the premium which we are likely to get on the equity investment, which is coming from because of that only. Because of the interest rate, which most of these assets, which we are having this is around -- it's almost 7.4% rather, 7.4%.
So with that, I think it an advantage to us that we are in the cash flow of [indiscernible] a decent one. And this number which you are saying that 40% each, we are looking at, definitely 30% to 40% has been indicated by them and there is possible negotiation which is going up.
And the payments have come in 2 tranches, right? I mean, you'll get to a first 49% and then another 51%. The first 2 as I mean, I understand you already spent 6 months of which so you'll be able to have it, but then the third and the fourth, and you would have to wait for some time, right?
Obviously, I think the gradually -- it's a process it is a 1-year process almost.
Sure. And would you be able to help me with the receivables from IRB and Adani?
Yes. Adani, there is not a big balance receivable as a better of hardly INR 60 something crores, which we received pretty regularly, which we are receiving regularly. And IRB I can update upon it. We basically at the start of this financial year -- this quarter. So we were having some debtors, I can't give you the stage. So we were having the INR 306 crores. There was debtors and retention in unbilled all 3 together. The start of this quarter. Now it's coming down, and we have received [ INR 133 crores] in quarter. We have received some INR 40 crores post to quarter. And now that is coming at roughly in a potential major portion INR 32 crores which is not yet due and indicates the 2-year DLB period. INR 58 crores out of INR 58 crores Debtors, we have [ INR 40 crores ] and [ INR 30 crores ] of conflict , which is likely to be within the as one that is under production. So now on track.
Sure, sir. Okay. And for Ganga CapEx is already taken care of, right? Or there is some more which is...
I think the CapEx which we have done and the CapEx, which is likely to be done, which again is going to be out with the disposal plan, which we are going to dispose.
[Operator Instructions] The next question is from the line of Uttam Kumar Srimal from Axis Securities.
Sir, this quarter, our employee costs and other expenses have increased. So can you please throw some light on that?
See, the mobilization in all the big size all the projects [indiscernible] a bit delayed and which we received very recently. So with that, I think the manpower cost in those on the projects is being reflected as [indiscernible] in this quarter 2 Number 2, [indiscernible] is all high, which you see the execution of tender and it only have been coming back to the same percentage as we have been in most of the last 3 years.
Okay. As you said that competition intensity has reduced the 20, 25 players. So now at juncture, how many bidders are bidding for the particular HAN project.
No. See, what I'm saying in HAN there has been reduced in EPC it's not that. EPC is almost sending a similar number of players, which are.
I'm asking about HAM only sir.
Earlier it was going at about a 13, 15 numbers now coming down again to, say, 8 to 10. So that is a significant reduction.
Our next question is from the line of Franklin Moraes from Equentis Wealth Advisory.
So you had alluded to the fact that you had some monsoon impact for the quarter. So has this impact spilled over for this quarter as well and in Q3?
Has earlier been asked that in any case, if we are looking at about [ INR 38-odd crores ] of execution, they have the tire start of this year. So we acquired for would be the highest one. in quarter 2 because you can see in the whole [ Rifa ], Andhra, Bangalore, [ Nerbas ],[ Basara Palanga ], because monsoon withdrawal has been some time, say, 15 or 20 of October. So a bit of a proportion being affected, but now again, we are, the execution is on well tracked. We are doing almost INR 15 crores to INR 16 crores of admission a day now. So we would be completing -- significantly, it will be coming at a good number or a decent number in this quarter 3. Year-on-year growth is confirmed.
Okay, okay. And last 4 to 5 years, we have seen EBITDA margin improvement also from 15% to 16% plus this is a steady improvement. So one is, is it a function of your internal efficiencies? Or is it a function of the product mix? And going forward, maybe for the next 3, 4 years, can we expect margins to improve going forward as well? Or are they likely to be stable?
Now I think it's even stable at the 16% to 17% so that we have already -- this is the next reason is it can be the size project [indiscernible] Official efficiency is being improved certain modification to the operational model is there, execution strategy is there. So this is how I think look like coming years also, we would be making that number.
Okay. And in the last 5 years, what was the reason for the improvement? Internal efficiency?
No, I think the commodity price, which was really damaged or a few quarters, they're going down as low as 15% coming back to 16%. So that is the major reason now.
Next question is from the line of [ Modit Jain ] from Hem Securities. Mr. [ Modit Jain ],could you please unmute your line and go ahead with your question.
My question was regarding that on the margin front. Our stand-alone margin last year was around 16% and the consolidated margin is 19%. The concerting revenue difference is not very much between [indiscernible] revenue contributing to this additional margin, so can you through some light on that?
The consolidation of our books is only really because of [indiscernible], and [indiscernible] is not much of expense only the [indiscernible] and the profit is top line, bottom line is coming almost at a similar range.
That was the last question. I now hand over the floor back to the management for closing comments.
