Torrent Power Reports 11% Profit Decline in Q1 FY27 Amid Higher Costs and Acquisition
Torrent Power reported a 10.75-11 percent decline in consolidated net profit to around Rs 662 crore in Q1 FY27, compared to Rs 742 crore a year earlier. Revenue rose by approximately 2.75-3 percent to over Rs 8,124 crore. The profit dip was attributed to higher finance costs and geopolitical disruptions affecting LNG supplies, impacting thermal power plants. The company completed the acquisition of Nabha Power Ltd for Rs 3,632 crore, which contributed to revenue and profit. EBITDA grew by 2 percent, supported by improved performance in distribution and renewable energy segments.
