New Delhi, Nov 5(SocialNews.XYZ) Concentrated revenue risk, dependence on government-owned transmission grids and infrastructure, and growth relying on winning highly competitive project bids are key risks for ACME Solar Holdings IPO, a brokerage firm said on Tuesday.
According to Bajaj Broking, the company focuses on the development, construction, ownership, operation, and maintenance of large-scale renewable energy projects. It accomplishes this through its internal engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) division, and operations and maintenance (O&M) team.
The company generates revenue by selling electricity to various clients, including those supported by central and state governments.

For Q1 of FY25 ending on June 30, 2024, it posted a net profit of Rs 1.39 crore on a total income of Rs 340.01 crore, bolstered by other income of Rs 147.02 crore and exceptional items worth Rs 748.69 crore in FY23.
