NTPC Ltd., India’s largest power producer, has announced its audited financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2024–25 (FY25), highlighting strong growth in revenue and profits, along with record operational efficiency in its thermal power segment.
On a standalone basis, NTPC reported a total income of ₹45,813 crore for Q4 FY25, reflecting a 4% increase compared to the same quarter last year. Profit After Tax (PAT) for the quarter rose to ₹5,778 crore, also up 4% year-on-year. For the full year, standalone income reached ₹174,414 crore, a 5% increase, while PAT grew by 9% to ₹19,649 crore.
The growth in annual profit—up by ₹1,570 crore—was driven by new capacity additions, improved operational efficiencies, higher other income, and lower provisions and disincentives. These gains were partially offset by higher tax expenses and adjustments related to fuel pricing from the previous year.
On a consolidated basis, the NTPC Group reported a 5% increase in total income to ₹190,862 crore for FY25. Group PAT rose by 12% to ₹23,953 crore, supported by a 35% increase in earnings from joint ventures, which totaled ₹2,214 crore, and a 6% rise in profits from subsidiaries, reaching ₹4,139 crore.
NTPC’s operational performance continues to set benchmarks in the industry. Its coal-fired thermal power plants achieved a Plant Load Factor (PLF) of 77.44% in FY25, the highest in the past seven years. This compares to the Rest of India’s average coal PLF of 67.23%, underscoring NTPC’s superior efficiency and reliability.
The company attributed its strong financial and operational performance to strategic investments, disciplined execution, and ongoing focus on efficiency and profitability across business segments.
