KEC International Surges 8% What’s Driving This Major Move in Indian Infrastructure Stocks?
KEC International Ltd. shares jumped nearly 8% on September 23, 2025, after announcing international orders worth ₹3,243 crore. The surge is driven by its largest-ever EPC contract, strong Q1 FY26 financials, and expansion into key global markets.

This milestone reinforces KEC’s position as a key player in global transmission and distribution markets.

EBITDA grew 29.5% YoY to ₹350 crore, and margins expanded from 6% to 7%, reflecting improved project execution and cost efficiency. These numbers demonstrate that KEC is successfully converting high-value orders into profitable operations.
