Adani Power Limited (APL), country’s largest private thermal power producer, has announced excellent results for the financial year 2024-25 (FY25). The company has recorded a profit before tax (PBT) of Rs 13,926 crore from current operations, up 21.4 percent. This has been achieved due to high power demand, increased capacity and decline in fuel costs.
The company’s revenue from current operations grew by 10.8 percent to Rs 56,473 crore, while EBITDA grew by 14.8 percent to Rs 21,575 crore. Power generation for the full financial year stood at 102.2 billion units (BU), up from 85.5 BU in FY24 last year.
Adani Power’s installed generation capacity grew from 15,250 MW in FY24 to 17,550 MW in FY25. This growth was driven by the acquisitions of Moxi Power Generation Limited (1,200 MW), Korba Power Limited (600 MW) and Adani Dahanu Thermal Power Station (500 MW). The Company’s power sales grew by 20.7 percent to 95.9 BU in FY25.
S. B. Khyalia, CEO of the Company, said, “Adani Power has recorded its highest ever performance in FY25, reflecting the strength and resilience of the Adani portfolio. We are committed to sustainable growth and will continue to deliver outstanding performance in the years to come”.
Adani Power’s total current revenue in Q4 FY25 stood at Rs 14,522 crore, up 5.3 percent over Q4 FY24. However, EBITDA declined to Rs 5,098 crore due to higher costs from operating new plants and lower tariffs. PBT stood at Rs 3,248 crore during the period, impacted by higher depreciation costs.
Khyalia said that Adani Power (Jharkhand) Limited has been merged with the company, making the 1,600 MW plant in Godda district now a direct part of APL.
Adani Power’s resolution plan for Vidarbha Industries Power Limited (600 MW) has been approved by lenders, and now awaits NCLT approval, he added.
He said that Adani Power plans to increase its generation capacity from 17,550 MW to 30,670 MW by 2030. This includes three 1,600 MW brownfield projects in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. Apart from this, Korba Power Project (1,320 MW) is also being revived.
The company has placed advance orders for 11,200 MW of main plant equipment to avoid any disruption in project delivery.
The company has also made significant progress on environmental and social fronts with water consumption intensity decreasing to 2.21 m³/MWh in FY25. Fly ash utilization rate was 102%.
The company’s total shareholders’ fund increased to Rs 56,347 crore at the end of FY25 from Rs 43,145 crore in FY24. Net total debt stood at Rs 31,023 crore, which increased due to acquisitions and working capital requirements. Still, the company’s net debt per megawatt is just Rs 1.77 crore, making it a low-debt power generating company.
