About the Company

Incorporated in 1984, Powerica Limited is an integrated power solutions provider operating across two key business verticals:

  • Generator set solutions – Manufacturing, assembly, installation and servicing of high-speed diesel generator (DG) sets and medium-speed large generators (MSLG).

  • Wind power business – Independent power producer (IPP) activities along with EPC and operations & maintenance services for wind projects.
     

The company serves customers across industrial, infrastructure, commercial, IT/ITES, healthcare and data centre sectors. It operates manufacturing facilities at:

  • Bengaluru (Karnataka)

  • Silvassa (Dadra & Nagar Haveli)

  • Khopoli (Maharashtra)
     

Generator set operations contribute the majority of its revenue, while wind power forms a smaller but strategic part of its portfolio.

IPO Objectives

As disclosed in the DRHP and reiterated in public summaries, the net proceeds from the fresh issue of ₹700 crore are proposed to be utilised as follows:

Fund Allocation Amount (₹ crore) Purpose

Repayment / Prepayment of Borrowings

Reduction of outstanding loans, lowering interest burden and improving leverage

General Corporate Purposes

Balance

Working capital, business expansion, strategic initiatives and other corporate requirements

The OFS component of ₹700 crore will provide liquidity and partial exit to existing shareholders and will not result in fresh capital inflow to the company.

As of July 2025, the company had significant outstanding borrowings, making debt reduction a key objective of the issue.
