BHEL posted total consolidated income of ₹5,658 crore in Q1 FY26, largely unchanged from ₹5,582 crore in Q1 FY25. Despite stable revenue, the company reported a significant loss of ₹456 crore due to negative segment performance in its core power business and rising operational costs.
Employee benefit expenses and finance costs both rose on a year-on-year basis. A ₹241 crore positive inventory adjustment helped control costs somewhat, but it wasn’t enough to offset the broader margin compression.
The current tax stood at ₹0.34 crore while deferred tax adjustment of ₹153 crore offered partial relief. Even so, net loss doubled YoY, highlighting the execution and margin challenges in the business.

It was expected that there would be muted performance from BHEL in Q1 FY26, given execution bottlenecks in the power segment and rising cost pressures. The results aligned with these expectations. However, the industry segment’s growth was a positive surprise and may indicate a pivot towards diversified engineering plays.
BHEL’s management acknowledged the margin stress in the power vertical and reiterated focus on project execution discipline and cost optimization. They continue to explore growth in high-margin sectors such as industrial systems, renewable energy, and service-based models. Working capital efficiency and order pipeline visibility remain key focus areas.
