NTPC Q4 Results: Profit Grows 33% to ₹6,490 Crore; Dividend Declared for Shareholders
So, here’s the scoop on NTPC, India’s biggest power company. They just announced their earnings for the last quarter of the year, and things are looking pretty good. Their profit jumped by 33% compared to the same time last year. That means they made a lot more money after paying all their bills — ₹6,490 crore to be exact!
More Power, More Money
NTPC didn’t just make more money — they also sold more electricity. Their total sales went up by about 7.6%, which means they either produced more power or sold it at better prices. Either way, it’s a win.
And get this: they produced 93.4 billion units of electricity in just these three months, which is around 4% more than before. Over the whole year, NTPC set a new record, producing 422 billion units — that’s a lot of juice powering our homes, offices, and factories.
Good News for Shareholders: Dividend Declared!
If you own NTPC shares, you’ll be happy to hear this. The company is giving out a final dividend of ₹3.25 per share. Think of it like a thank-you bonus for being a shareholder.
Plus, earlier this year, NTPC already paid two smaller dividends of ₹2.25 each. So in total, investors will get ₹7.75 per share for the whole year, which is a bit more than last year.
Growing Bigger and Looking Ahead
NTPC is also growing its power capacity — it now has nearly 76,000 megawatts of installed power plants, up from about 72,000 megawatts last year.
What’s even more interesting? They’re thinking about stepping into the nuclear power business soon. It’s still early days, and they need government approval, but it shows NTPC wants to explore new ways to generate cleaner energy.
What This Means for You and Me
In simple words: NTPC is doing well. They’re making more money, producing more electricity, and sharing the profits with their investors. Plus, their plans to grow and try new energy sources mean they’re thinking about the future.
For anyone who follows the stock market or cares about where our electricity comes from, these updates are definitely worth watching.
