How Are KPI And KEC Positioned In MOFSL’s Capital Goods Sector Strategy?

Edit this post

Why Is MOFSL Turning Selective On Capital Goods Stocks Like KPI And KEC?

Motilal Oswal Financial Services (MOFSL) has shared its latest views on the capital goods sector, with a focus on KEC International and Kalpataru Projects International (KPI). The report suggests that the transmission pipeline is strengthening, margins are set to improve, and differentiated ratings reflect company-specific positioning.

What Is Driving The Order Pipeline?

The Central Electricity Authority’s (CEA) ordering pipeline has picked up pace after a muted start in FY26. Both KEC and KPI confirm robust visibility over the next few years, with greater emphasis on HVDC projects, international markets, and non-T&D opportunities.

Transmission & Distribution (T&D) remains the backbone of growth for these companies. A steady flow of government-led power transmission initiatives is expected to sustain momentum for the sector.

How Are Margins Likely To Trend?

Stable commodity prices are paving the way for gradual margin recovery from FY26 onward. With execution improving and raw material volatility easing, both companies are positioned for stronger profitability.

While T&D continues to dominate, diversification into international projects and non-T&D verticals could further support margin resilience and earnings visibility.

What Are MOFSL’s Ratings And Targets?

Kalpataru Projects International (KPI) has been rated BUY with a target price of ₹1,450, reflecting strong execution visibility. KEC International, however, has been rated NEUTRAL with a target price of ₹950 due to a relatively more balanced outlook.

The differentiated stance underscores KPI’s stronger growth profile compared to KEC, even though both are well-placed in the sector’s upcycle.
