Operating costs grew −11.6% against revenue growth of +5.1%, so more of each rupee of sales reached operating profit.

Profit before other income, one-offs and tax grew faster, at +80.2%; other income, one-offs or tax held the headline back. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹493 cr, −33.6% on the four before.
Of the 3 companies in Power and utilities that have reported Q2 FY27 so far, Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd. ranks 3rd on revenue growth; the sector median is +30.7%. Its margin moved +1,070 bps on the year against a sector median of −50 bps.
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 ₹0.72 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹15.00 trades at 20.8 times trailing earnings.
Written from the quarterly statements. The filing read adds the balance sheet and cash flow filed with this quarter, the auditor's review, segment results, one-off items line by line and what management said on the call.
