Adani Power Ltd. reported revenue of ₹18,902 cr for April to June 2026, +34.0% on the year and +32.9% on the quarter. That is faster than this quarter has grown in recent years (+15.1% on average), so the year-on-year number is not just the season. It is the highest quarterly revenue in the last 12 quarters on record. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹59,033 cr, +6.6% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹7,949 cr, a margin of 42.1%, +176 bps on the year and +878 bps on the quarter. It is the widest margin of the last 8 quarters (range 33.3% to 42.1%). Operating costs grew +30.0% against revenue growth of +34.0%, so more of each rupee of sales reached operating profit.
Net profit was ₹4,867 cr, +47.3% on the year and +14.0% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹2.49. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax grew faster, at +57.3%; other income, one-offs or tax held the headline back. The tax rate was 24% against an average of 19% over the previous 8 quarters, which weighed on profit this quarter. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹14,532 cr, +19.7% on the four before.
Most power earnings are regulated returns on equity, with fuel costs passed through, so revenue can swing with fuel prices while profit moves far less. The quarterly statements do not carry plant load factor, capacity added and regulated equity; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹7.39 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹206.00 trades at 27.9 times trailing earnings.
Written from the quarterly statements. The filing read adds the balance sheet and cash flow, the auditor's review, segment results, one-off items line by line and what management said on the call.

Net profit a year ago, each driver's change, and net profit now. Blue added profit, red took it away.
