- Nehal Chaliawala

Larsen & Toubro (L&T) crossed a milestone in Q1 of FY26, with its overall order book surpassing ₹6 trillion for the first time—driven by a booming Middle East pipeline and steady domestic execution. The order book at the end of Q1 was ₹6.12 trillion, up from ₹5.79 trillion as of 31 March 2025.

"Both India and the Middle East, our two primary geographies for most of our businesses, continued to move ahead," R. Shankar Raman, the company's whole-time director and chief financial officer (CFO) said in a post-earnings call on Tuesday.

In Q1, L&T received fresh business worth ₹945 crore, a third more than in the same period last year. Just over half of this business was from overseas.
