Strategic Profile
As of 31 December 2025, NCC's consolidated order book stood at Rs 79,571 crore, reflecting a 43% increase year-on-year.

The company recently entered the smart meters segment by securing three major projects worth ₹8,080 crore, signaling diversification into emerging infrastructure segments.
Cyborg Score Rationale
