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 ₹1.49 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹15.00 trades at 10.1 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.
A tax credit added to profit this quarter. Deferred tax recognised, or a reversal?
Profit before tax ₹548 cr; tax −₹38.4 cr, a credit.
