Revenue also saw a healthy increase, rising by 8% to Rs 17,096 crore in Q4FY25.
Good News for Shareholders: Dividend Announced!
To celebrate this success, Tata Power’s board has recommended a final dividend of Rs 2.25 per share for the fiscal year 2025. Shareholders will get to vote on this proposal at the company’s 106th Annual General Meeting on July 4, 2025.
Strong Performance Across the Board
It wasn’t just the bottom line that improved; Tata Power’s EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) surged by 39.2% year-on-year to Rs 3,245.4 crore, highlighting their operational efficiency. Operating margins also expanded to 19% from 14.7% in the previous year.
Praveer Sinha, CEO and Managing Director of Tata Power, shared his enthusiasm about the company’s performance:
“FY25 has been a remarkable year for Tata Power, with the company achieving a record-breaking PAT exceeding Rs 5,000 crore, driven by exceptional contributions across all our business segments.”
He also pointed out that this is the 22nd consecutive quarter of profit growth for Tata Power, a truly impressive streak.
Renewable Energy Taking Off
Sinha highlighted some key milestones, particularly in the renewable energy sector. For the first time, Tata Power added over 1 GW of renewable capacity in a single year and is aiming for 2 GW in the next fiscal year (FY26). Their rooftop solar business is also booming, exceeding 1.5 lakh installations with a total capacity of 3 GW.
Their manufacturing facility in Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu, produced a substantial amount of solar modules and cells during the year, further strengthening their commitment to renewable energy.
Pumped Storage Projects: Investing in the Future
Tata Power is also making big investments in pumped storage projects, a key technology for storing renewable energy. The 1,000 MW Bhivpuri Pumped Hydro Project, which received crucial approvals from the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), is set to begin construction in the first half of FY26 with commissioning planned for August 2028. Another project, the 1,800 MW Shirawata pumped storage project, is expected to start in the latter part of the year and be commissioned in 2030.
Furthermore, the company is collaborating with Bhutan on a 600 MW hydroelectric project as part of a larger 5 GW clean energy agreement, contributing to regional energy security.
Meeting India’s Energy Needs
In FY25, Tata Power supplied over 64.7 billion units of electricity to the grid, playing a vital role in meeting India’s growing energy demand. Their distribution businesses also supplied approximately 47 billion units to consumers.
With these impressive results and ambitious plans for the future, Tata Power is well-positioned to continue its growth trajectory and contribute significantly to India’s energy landscape.
