The renewable energy company logged a net profit of Rs 323 crore for the June quarter in the current financial year (FY24) against a net profit of Rs 214 crore in the first quarter of the previous fiscal year (FY23).

Its solar portfolio capacity utilisation factor (CUF) improved by 40 basis points to 26.9 per cent in the first quarter, compared to a year ago. It credited the growth to consistent high plant availability and improvement in solar irradiation. 

With regards to its wind portfolio, the company reported an increase of 34 per cent in energy sales, attributed to strong capacity addition. It stated a reduction in the wind CUF however, due to lower wind speeds in comparison to the previous year.
