“India’s leading C&I renewable energy player, backed by a strong capacity pipeline, premium tariffs, and long-tenure PPAs (~23 years), with high repeat clientele and robust project-level ROE (~35%). Valuations, however, appear stretched at ~16x EV/EBITDA, particularly in the context of elevated leverage (Net Debt/Equity of ~2.5x).” said Gaurav Garg, Research Analyst at Lemonn Markets Desk
