Shares of NTPC Green Energy Ltd, the renewable energy arm of NTPC, declined by as much as 4% on Monday, reaching an intraday low of ₹100.31. The dip followed the company’s announcement of a 15% year-on-year decline in consolidated net profit for the quarter ending March 2026 (Q4FY26). The renewable energy developer reported a consolidated profit after tax (PAT) of ₹197 crore in Q4FY26, down from ₹233 crore in the same period last year. This earnings figure is attributable to the owners of the parent company.
Despite the drop in profitability, the company recorded a significant 47% increase in revenue, rising to ₹913 crore in Q4FY26 from ₹622 crore in Q4FY25. This growth reflects strong operational performance across its clean energy projects. However, the surge in revenue was overshadowed by a 60% year-on-year increase in total expenses, which jumped to ₹713 crore from ₹445 crore in the previous year. The rise in expenses was driven by higher employee benefit costs, finance expenses, depreciation, and amortisation charges. Sequentially, expenses also increased by 16%, from ₹616 crore in Q3FY26.
