Adani Power Q4 consolidated EBITDA dips to Rs 5,098 crore

Mumbai, Apr 30 (UNI) Adani Power Ltd (APL) on Wednesday reported a marginal dip in its consolidated EBITDA for the fourth quarter of FY25 to Rs 5,098 crore, compared to Rs 5,273 crore in the same period last year, impacted by higher operating expenses from recent acquisitions and lower merchant tariffs.
Quarterly power sale volume rose 18.9 percent to 26.4 billion units (BU), while total revenue for Q4 FY25 increased 5.3 percent to ₹14,522 crore from ₹13,787 crore a year ago. However, Profit Before Tax (PBT) for the quarter fell to ₹3,248 crore from ₹3,464 crore due to higher depreciation and moderated demand growth.
For the full year FY25, APL posted a Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹12,750 crore, slightly lower than the previous year owing to reduced one-time revenues and increased tax provisions, despite record operational performance.
The company’s consolidated power generation rose 19.5 percent to a historic 102.2 BU in FY25, up from 85.5 BU in FY24, while power sale volumes jumped 20.7 percent to 95.9 BU. Operational capacity increased to 17,550 MW during the year following the acquisitions of MPGL, KPL and ADTPS.
APL’s CEO S B Khyalia attributed the robust results to "strategic expansion, cost efficiencies and industry-leading ESG practices", and reaffirmed the company’s commitment to long-term value creation.
Total revenue for FY25 grew 10.8 percent to ₹56,473 crore, supported by higher volumes under long-term PPAs and merchant contracts, even as lower tariff realisations moderated overall realisation. EBITDA from continuing operations rose 14.8 percent to ₹21,575 crore, while PBT increased 21.4 percent to ₹13,926 crore due to improved operating leverage and lower finance costs.
Key milestones included the merger of Adani Power (Jharkhand) Ltd and the approval of APL’s resolution plan for Vidarbha Industries Power Ltd. The company ended the fiscal with ₹56,347 crore in shareholders’ funds and retained strong credit ratings.
With plans to scale up to 30,670 MW by 2030 through brownfield and greenfield expansions, APL has secured necessary land and awarded key contracts to ensure timely execution.
“Sustainability continues to be a central pillar of APL’s growth,” the company said, citing full fly ash utilisation, best-in-class water efficiency, and improved S&P CSA ESG scores as markers of its leadership in responsible thermal power generation.
