Vindhya Telelinks Faces ₹1.44 Crore GST Demand After Partial Appeal Success

🔴 NEGATIVE ⭐ 4/10

REGULATORY 📅 02 Mar 2026, 04:14 PM

Vindhya Telelinks Limited has received a GST appeal order for FY 2019-20, resulting in a total demand of ₹1.44 crore. While the original GST demand was reduced from ₹1.55 crore to ₹62.35 lakh, the addition of ₹75.37 lakh in interest and ₹6.32 lakh in penalties brings the total liability up. The issue stems from alleged excess Input Tax Credit (ITC) availment due to non-reflection in GSTR-8A. The company has stated its intention to file a further appeal against this order.

GST demand of ₹62.35 lakh confirmed for FY 2019-20, down from the original demand of ₹1.55 crore.
Total financial impact including interest and penalty stands at ₹1.44 crore.
Interest component of ₹75.37 lakh is significantly high, exceeding the principal tax demand.
The dispute involves excess ITC availment due to non-reflection in GSTR-8A.
Company intends to contest the order by filing a further appeal.

💡 Investors should note the tax liability, though the amount is not materially significant relative to the company's size. Monitor the outcome of the subsequent appeal for finality on the matter.

🔴 NEGATIVE ⭐ 8/10

EARNINGS 📅 06 Feb 2026, 07:24 PM

Vindhya Telelinks reported a standalone net loss of ₹1,966.49 lakhs for Q3 FY26, a sharp reversal from a profit of ₹2,691.76 lakhs in the same quarter last year. Revenue for the quarter fell 31.5% YoY to ₹71,055.21 lakhs, primarily due to funding-linked disbursement delays in the EPC segment's Uttar Pradesh Jal Jeevan Mission projects. High interest costs from increased working capital deployment and a one-time gratuity expense further weighed on profitability. However, the company maintains a robust combined order book of ₹5,812.21 crore across its Cable and EPC segments.

EPC segment revenue declined sharply to ₹515.48 crore from ₹850.88 crore YoY due to government funding delays.

Cable segment showed resilience with EBITDA increasing to ₹13.06 crore, driven by solar and specialty products.
Combined order book stands at a strong ₹5,812.21 crore, providing long-term revenue visibility.

💡 Investors should exercise caution as the company faces significant working capital pressure and execution hurdles in its EPC division. Monitor the recovery of pending dues from government projects and the impact of high interest costs on future margins before taking new positions.
