New Delhi: State-run NHPC Ltd reported a 3% year-on-year rise in net profit to ₹1,131.16 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, driven by a strong increase in income and the commissioning of major energy projects.
According to a regulatory filing, the hydropower giant had posted a net profit of ₹1,101.63 crore during the same quarter last year.
Revenue Growth Underpins Profit Increase
NHPC’s total income rose to ₹3,442.76 crore, up from ₹3,037.92 crore in Q1 of FY25. The income growth was fueled by improved operational output and contribution from newly commissioned assets.
Major Capacity Additions in Q1

800 MW Parbati-II Hydroelectric Project was successfully commissioned in Himachal Pradesh, marking one of the most significant hydro additions of the year.
214.28 MW out of the 300 MW Kamisar Solar Power Project in Bikaner, Rajasthan was also commissioned during the period.
