India’s next big power story isn’t solar
it’s NUCLEAR ⚛️
We’re entering a multi-decade capex cycle — and almost no one is talking about it yet.
🇮🇳 100 GW target by 2047 (vs ~8 GW today)
💰 ~₹19 lakh crore investment opportunity
⚡ AI + EVs = 24x7 baseload demand
Renewables are growing fast — but they’re intermittent.
Nuclear = low carbon + reliable + scalable
And now, the real inflection 👇
* SHANTI Act 2025 → private sector entry
* Liability reforms → supplier ecosystem unlock
* SMR push + ₹20,000 Cr allocation
* Execution pipeline finally building up
This is a high-entry-barrier sector
→ 7+ year approvals
→ Limited qualified vendors
→ Deep, durable moats
Which means:
The real winners may be a handful of suppliers most investors aren’t tracking.
From EPC to critical components —
this is a full ecosystem play.

Is India's Capex Boom Losing Momentum? The Data Reveals a Surprising Divide.
India's investment cycle is becoming increasingly selective.
A sector-wise analysis of gross fixed assets reveals:
→ 9 of 11 sectors witnessed slower growth in FY26.
→ 3 sectors recorded negative growth.
→ Only electricity generation and transmission & distribution showed acceleration.
After several years of strong capacity additions, the investment landscape appears to be changing.
The big question for investors: Which sectors are positioned to benefit from the next phase of capital investment?🧵👇
7/7 — The Investment Takeaway: Follow Returns, Not Just Capex Announcements
The central message is clear: India's investment cycle is not moving uniformly across industries.
Power infrastructure is showing improving momentum, while several manufacturing sectors are digesting earlier investments or facing industry-specific challenges.
What investors should monitor:
→ Fresh order inflows and project execution.
→ Actual capacity additions versus announced plans.
→ Plant utilisation and incremental asset turnover.
→ EBITDA margins and return on capital.
→ Debt, working capital and free cash flow.
→ Government project execution and private-sector investment commitments.
Bottom Line:
A slowdown in fixed-asset growth does not necessarily mean the end of an investment cycle.
For some industries, the next stage may be about generating returns from capacity already created. For others, new investments could still drive growth.
The real investment opportunity lies in identifying where capital spending translates into sustainable earnings and cash flows.

1/7 — The slowdown is broad, but not uniform
Several industries that witnessed aggressive expansion in FY25 experienced significant moderation in FY26.
Fixed-asset growth (FY25 → FY26):
→ Automobiles & Ancillaries: 35.4% → 11.3%
→ Hotels & Tourism: 27.3% → 4.1%
→ Machinery: 21.0% → 4.5%
→ Construction Materials: 19.6% → 9.2%
Importantly, these sectors are still reporting positive fixed-asset growth.
The decline in growth rates largely follows substantial additions in earlier years.
Investor insight: Slower expansion does not necessarily indicate weaker businesses. The key is whether previous investments are now generating higher utilisation, operating cash flows
and returns on capital.
Age-old ideas still work especially when shared with honesty. It was refreshing to hear @pranjalkamra of @myfinology , financial wisdom presented by a creator who values trust over hype.

We appreciate you raising this. GRP’s gross debt was around ₹219 crore at the end of September, with most of it in short-term working-capital borrowings.
EBITDA growth has improved interest coverage, but debt has increased and cash flow remains an important watch point. How quickly the new capacity ramps up will matter for future cash generation.
GRP Limited’s Q2 and H1 FY27 results: good growth, and a few things to keep an eye on
GRP had a strong September quarter. Revenue grew, profits rose, and EBITDA margins improved—even as raw-material costs put pressure on gross margins.
Here’s the quarter at a glance:
> Revenue from operations was ₹172.3 crore, up 30% year on year.
> EBITDA came in at ₹18.2 crore, up 60%.
> EBITDA margin improved to 10.5%, from 8.6%.
> PAT rose to ₹6.4 crore, compared with ₹2.0 crore last year.
> Gross margin fell to 45.8%, from 51.1%, as input costs increased.
The H1 numbers were strong too: revenue grew 29% to ₹329.2 crore, EBITDA rose 60% to ₹35.6 crore, and PAT increased 185% to ₹10.6 crore.
What stands out is that EBITDA margins improved even while gross margins came under pressure. That suggests efficiencies and scale helped—but it’ll be worth watching whether GRP can keep that up if input costs remain high.
The company is also investing in growth beyond reclaim rubber, including adjacent tyre-recycling and plastics operations. It plans ₹90–100 crore of capex in FY27 and aims to increase reclaim-rubber capacity from around 88 KTA to 110 KTA, while expanding adjacent EOL tyre and plastics capacity from around 39 KTA to 130 KTA by FY30.
Those plans could open up new revenue streams, but the next step is execution: getting facilities commissioned, building utilization and turning the added capacity into profitable growth.
The numbers are encouraging. The things I’d watch next are margins, project ramp-up and cash generation as the business expands.
