Kovai Medical Centre & Hospital
1/15
Let’s talk about Kovai Medical Centre & Hospital (KMCH)—a regional healthcare powerhouse based in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. With a mission rooted in affordability and accessibility, KMCH is proof that healthcare can balance business acumen with social impact. Here's the full story. 🏥👇
Pace Digitek Ltd.
Co is a specialized integrated power and passive telecom infrastructure solutions provider. Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Bengaluru, the company has transitioned from a pure-play telecom vendor to a diversified cleantech and infrastructure player. It operates across three primary verticals: Telecommunications, Energy (including BESS), and Information & Communication Technology (ICT). With a manufacturing footprint in Karnataka and a growing international presence in Africa and Southeast Asia, PDL serves major clients like Reliance Jio, Airtel, and BSNL.
The company gained significant market attention following its IPO in late 2025, positioning itself as an early mover in the high-growth Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) market.
Q3 FY26 Update
In the quarter ending December 2025, Pace Digitek reported a robust performance driven by its strategic pivot toward energy storage. Revenue from operations reached ₹644.0 Cr, up 13.5% YoY. Net profit (PAT) rose to ₹78.8 Cr, an 11.3% YoY increase. While top-line growth remains strong, EBITDA margins saw a slight compression to 18.3% (from 21.4% YoY) due to a shift in project mix toward lower-margin EPC work and higher initial mobilization costs for BESS deployments.
Cash Flows
A key point of scrutiny remains the cash flow conversion. For FY25, while the company reported a record net profit of ₹279.1 Cr, its cash flow from operating activities (CFO) was negative ₹175.9 Cr. This divergence was primarily driven by a sharp rise in trade receivables (nearly ₹783 Cr), highlighting that while sales are being booked, the cash collection cycle from large telecom and government clients remains stretched.
Key Strengths
1. Early Mover in BESS PDL has successfully transitioned into a CleanTech OEM. Its subsidiary, Lineage Power, recently secured massive orders (e.g., ₹494 Cr from NTPC and ₹158 Cr from Reliance), positioning the company to benefit from India’s renewable energy storage targets.
2. Massive Order Book Visibility As of January 2026, the total order book stands at a record ₹8,467.8 Cr. Crucially, the Energy segment now accounts for over 70% of the backlog, providing a multi-year revenue runway and diversifying away from the hyper-competitive telecom space.
3. End-to-End Integrated Model Unlike specialized contractors, PDL handles the entire lifecycle—from manufacturing power systems and lithium-ion batteries to tower erection, fiber laying, and long-term O&M services. This vertical integration provides a service "stickiness" that pure product vendors lack.
Key Risks
1. Severe Working Capital Pressure The business is highly capital-intensive. The negative operating cash flow in FY25 is a red flag, indicating that the company is effectively "funding" its customers' projects. Any further delay in payments from major telcos or government bodies could squeeze liquidity.
2. Execution Risk in New Verticals The company is aggressively expanding BESS capacity (aiming for 10 GWh). Rapid scaling in a technically complex and evolving field like battery storage carries the risk of technological obsolescence or execution delays.
3. Customer Concentration Despite segment diversification, a large portion of revenue still flows from a handful of telecom giants and government agencies. Any change in the CAPEX cycles of players like Reliance or Airtel directly impacts PDL’s bottom line.
4. Margin Volatility As the company takes on larger EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) contracts, margins are susceptible to raw material price fluctuations (especially lithium and steel) and competitive bidding pressures.
Outlook
Co is currently a "growth-at-any-cost" story. The transition into the Energy and BESS space has transformed its valuation profile, as evidenced by the successful 2025 IPO and subsequent order wins. The massive order book suggests that the revenue growth of 80%+ CAGR seen over the last few years could continue in the near term.
I’m afraid I have some terrible news. The governor of America’s largest and richest state has just signed a law that puts 10 million children and adolescents in grave danger of medical mistreatment.
The media headlines have it wrong. They claim that California Governor Gavin Newsom’s new law protects children by stopping public schools from outing their new gender to their parents.
It does just the opposite. It makes children vulnerable to irreversible and lifelong medical abuse and mistreatment. And it is all based on the pseudoscientific idea that some children are born into the wrong bodies and that we can change a person’s sex through drugs and surgery.
For any of this to make sense, you have to understand what’s happening in Britain. Several years ago, the government appointed a well-respected pediatrician named Hillary Cass to investigate whether it was ethical to block the puberty of children, give them opposite-sex hormones, and perform surgeries on their bodies to make them feel better about their gender. Dr. Cass came back a few weeks ago and said no, absolutely not.
Around the same time, the British government banned puberty blockers nationwide. And, just a few days ago, the new Labor Party government affirmed that it would maintain the former government’s ban.
In her report, Cass said that the so-called “social transition,” whereby a child adopts the identity of the opposite sex, is not a neutral act and has psychological consequences. This means it is the first step toward medical intervention.
What Gavin Newsom has done is actively prevented schools from informing parents that their children have been put on a medical pathway.
This is an outrageous attack on the rights of children and parents. Children have a right to go through puberty. No adult should be able to block their puberty. And parents have a right to know if their child thinks that they are the opposite sex or were born into the wrong body.
We have seen with leaked internal documents of the leading gender medicine group, WPATH, that these medical interventions, namely puberty blockers, hormones, and surgery, are not only irreversible but result in sterilization and loss of sexual function.
Children or adolescents are simply not mature enough to understand the effects of so-called “gender-affirming care.” They cannot, in other words, give their informed consent.
The new law creates the grave risk that activist teachers, students, and outside groups will convince their children that they were born into the wrong body, and hide their “social transition” from parents, which will lead to harmful medical mistreatment.
As such, the law that Newsom just signed is the opposite of what both children and their parents need. We need schools to immediately warn parents if their children think they are the opposite sex.
After all, this is a diagnosable psychiatric condition known as “gender dysphoria.” And if your child has a psychiatric disorder, whether anxiety, depression, an eating disorder, or gender dysphoria, you have a right to know.
And schools must stop teaching children, or allowing other people to teach children, the pseudoscientific and dehumanizing ideas that it’s possible to be born into the wrong body and possible to change one’s sex.
As such, either the legislature, the courts, or a ballot initiative will be required to nullify Newsom’s law. Until then, it is important to spread the word to parents that California public schools are fundamentally unsafe for the millions of children who attend them.
It’s unbelievable that one of the most coveted high-rise building in the suburbs has the shabbiest vertical transportation provided by @SchindlerIND & powered by @oberoirealty
