Tata Power reported a rise of 85 per cent rise in its consolidated net profit to ₹935.18 crore in the September 2022 quarter. The company posted a strong rise in profits mainly on the back of higher revenue. The consolidated net profit of the company was ₹505.66 crore in the corresponding quarter last fiscal.

The total income of the company rose by 39 per cent to ₹14,181.07 crore in the quarter from ₹10,187.33 crore a year ago.

The company’s consolidated EBITDA for the September quarter was up by 18 per cent at ₹2,043 crore as against ₹1,732 crore in the corresponding quarter last fiscal on account of higher availability in Mundra and capacity addition in renewables and higher efficiencies achieved in the distribution business specially in Odisha Discoms.
