NTPC Green Energy Q4 Profit Declines 15% Amid Revenue Growth and Rising Costs

NTPC Green Energy reported a 15% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit to Rs 197 crore in Q4 FY26 despite a 47% rise in revenue to Rs 913 crore, due to a 60% increase in expenses including finance and employee costs. Profit before tax fell 19.5% year-on-year but improved sequentially. The company plans to raise up to Rs 5,000 crore through bonds and form a joint venture for renewable projects. Analysts remain divided, with some optimistic about NTPC's renewable expansion and others cautious about execution and thermal plant risks.
