Business Model and Revenue Forecast

German Green Steel and Power Limited is engaged in iron and steel manufacturing and operates primarily in Western India, with Gujarat being its key operating market. Its major products include TMT Bars, MS Billets and Sponge Iron. TMT Bars accounted for approximately 78.74% of FY26 product revenue.

The company is expanding its manufacturing capacity. Sponge Iron capacity is planned to increase from 66,000 MTPA to 148,500 MTPA, while TMT Bar capacity is planned to increase from 181,500 MTPA to 346,500 MTPA. MS Billets capacity is planned to increase from 214,500 TPA to 412,500 TPA.

The company has also entered into a Manufacturing Partner Agreement with JSW One Distribution Limited. This initiative is expected to support its distribution and manufacturing strategy.

Revenue growth was approximately 1% in FY24, 33% in FY25 and 11% in FY26. For the DCF model, we have used a 10% initial revenue-growth assumption, followed by a 2% annual tapering assumption and a 2% terminal growth rate. These assumptions are intended to provide a conservative basis for the forecast.

Where Our Analysis Could Fail

The company’s business is mainly related to steel manufacturing, which is highly competitive and cyclical. Therefore, revenue growth and margins may not develop exactly as assumed in the DCF model. If the company delivers higher or lower growth than our assumptions, the estimated fair value can change materially.

The model also assumes a 10% EBITDA margin for future cash-flow calculations. FY26 EBITDA margin was approximately 9.94%, so the assumption is broadly aligned with the latest reported year. However, changes in steel prices, raw-material costs, power costs, imports, demand conditions and operating efficiency could affect future margins.

The company is also expanding capacity, which creates execution and reinvestment requirements. The DCF valuation is therefore sensitive to capital expenditure, working-capital requirements and the pace at which the expanded capacity generates revenue and cash flow.

The company has significant geographic concentration, with approximately 97.74% of FY26 revenue coming from Gujarat. Changes in regional demand or operating conditions could therefore affect performance.

Steel prices and demand can also be affected by global economic conditions, geopolitical events, trade policies and other external factors. These risks are not fully predictable and can cause actual results to differ from the forecast.
