Reliance Power Posts Rs 44.68 Crore Profit in Q1, Marks Strong Turnaround from Debt Crisis
New Delhi, 19th July 2025: Reliance Power, owned by Anil Ambani, has reported a net profit of Rs 44.68 crore in the April–June quarter of FY2025, marking a significant turnaround from the Rs 98 crore loss in the same period last year. The performance signals a major revival for the debt-laden company.
Despite the profit, total revenue for the quarter fell 5.4% to Rs 1,886 crore from Rs 1,992 crore year-on-year. The company’s EBITDA also declined by 13.2% to Rs 565 crore, down from Rs 651 crore. Operating margins dropped slightly from 32.7% to 30%.
To support its growth momentum, Reliance Power’s board has approved fundraising of up to Rs 6,000 crore through equity shares, equity-linked instruments, or other eligible securities. Additionally, it plans to raise up to Rs 3,000 crore via secured or unsecured non-convertible debentures. The funds will be used to expand and strengthen operations.
The company currently operates a power generation portfolio of 5,305 MW, including the 3,960 MW Sasan Power project. Over the past year, Reliance Power’s stock has more than doubled investors’ wealth, delivering a 136% return. A Rs 1 crore investment a year ago would now be worth over Rs 2 crore. On Friday, July 18, the stock closed at Rs 64.12, down 1.52%.
