The government wants every village connected to broadband under BharatNet. Cities are building new sewage systems under the Namami Gange and Swachh Bharat missions. Gas utilities are extending city gas networks into smaller towns. All this work needs contractors who can dig, lay pipe, and hand over a finished project on time.<\/p>\n<p>IPOs for such contractors are also on the rise this year. Annu Projects Limited is one such contractor.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 2003 and based in Delhi, the company has laid and maintained more than 62,800 km of optical fibre cable, built sewerage infrastructure across five states, and installed gas pipelines for four state gas utilities.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re now going live in an IPO consisting entirely of a Fresh Issue of ~\u20b9175 Cr, from 25th to 28th Aug, 2026.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"header-anchor-post\" class=\"header-anchor-post\" id=\"the-business-model\">The Business Model<\/h2>\n<div class=\"pencraft pc-display-flex pc-alignItems-center pc-position-absolute pc-reset header-anchor-parent\"><\/div>\n<p>Annu Projects builds and maintains underground and overhead infrastructure for four business verticals:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>telecom infrastructure<\/strong>\u00a0(laying and maintaining optical fibre cable networks),<\/li>\n<li><strong>sewerage infrastructure<\/strong>\u00a0(pipe laying, treatment plants, pumping stations),<\/li>\n<li><strong>gas pipelines<\/strong>\u00a0(laying MDPE pipe and setting up household gas connections), and<\/li>\n<li><strong>railway signalling<\/strong>, which they entered for the first time in FY26.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The company wins work in two ways. Most projects come through competitive bidding run by central or state government bodies. Some come on as sub-contracting to private companies executing larger government-funded schemes.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, government customers, directly or through sub-contracts, account for ~57 % of revenue.<\/p>\n<p>Once Annu wins a contract, it does not lease equipment to build it. The company owns 558 machines, including excavators, horizontal directional drilling rigs, and fibre-splicing equipment. This cuts equipment rental costs and gives the company control over project timelines.<\/p>\n<p>Revenue is recognised as the company completes stages of work. The unexecuted value of a signed contract sits in the order book until billed. This makes The order book value is recognized as revenue only upon the completion of the project, or a particular stage of a project. Thus the order book acts as a clear indicator of future revenue.<\/p>\n<p>Telecom infrastructure and sewerage infrastructure between them have supplied more than 90% of revenue for the past 3 years.<\/p>\n<div class=\"captioned-image-container\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"image2-inset\">\n<picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png 424w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png 848w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png 1272w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png 1456w\" type=\"image\/webp\" sizes=\"100vw\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sizing-normal\" src=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png\" sizes=\"100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png 424w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png 848w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png 1272w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!OZc7!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png 1456w\" alt=\"\" width=\"652\" height=\"401.1289340101523\" data-attrs=\"{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/public\/images\/bd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:606,&quot;width&quot;:985,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:652,&quot;bytes&quot;:1129151,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image\/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/ipoanalysis.substack.com\/i\/212511063?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fbd61c738-ee4b-433d-a3ed-13ede5e32655_985x606.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}\" \/><\/picture>\n<div class=\"image-link-expand\">\n<div class=\"pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"image-caption\"><em>Annu Projects\u2019 sewerage treatment plant in Anjad, MP.
