What the record says.
Adani Power delivered its strongest-ever quarterly performance in Q1 FY27 with Rs 17,550 crore in revenue from operations (+28% YoY) and Rs 4,867 crore PAT (+47% YoY), driven by exceptional demand from hotter-than-usual summer conditions. Peak demand hit ~271 GW in May 2026 with national energy consumption rising 8.4% YoY to 485 billion units. Consolidated PLF jumped to 78% vs 67% YoY, enabling power sales growth of 17% to 29 billion units—though merchant volumes declined to 4 billion units as capacity got tied up under PPAs. The company secured a 25-year 1,600 MW PPA with Maharashtra DISCOM and completed the acquisition of JSW's 180 MW Nigri plant plus stakes in JSW Power Ventures and Prayagraj Power. Management targets 45 GW capacity by 2035 (up from 42 GW), including 10 GW nuclear, with Rs 23,000 crore capex planned for FY27. Key risks include Bangladesh receivables of ~$400 million requiring monitoring and pending government rules for nuclear projects that could delay execution timelines.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Capital expenditure for FY27 is expected at Rs 23,000 crore, with subsequent years targeting Rs 30,000+ crore (FY28) and Rs 33,000-35,000 crore (FY29).
- Expanded capacity target from 42 GW to 45 GW, incorporating organic expansion and potential additional acquisitions, to be achieved within the same original timeline.
- Management committed to maintaining net debt to EBITDA between 2 to 3 times at all points during the expansion phase, despite incremental capex requirements.
- The 1,320 MW Korba Phase 2 project is expected to commission before December 2026, with the first unit of 1,600 MW Mahan Phase 2 targeted for Q1 FY28.
Risks flagged
- Receivables from BPDB stand at approximately $400 million as of Q1 end. While monthly collections of $100 million are ongoing and increasing slightly, geopolitical payment risks remain given the country-to-country tensions.
- Management repeatedly cited pending government rules under the Nuclear Energy Act as a prerequisite for finalizing nuclear capacity plans. Without regulatory clarity, the 10 GW nuclear target by 2035 cannot be confirmed or actioned.
- The upcoming 1,320 MW Korba Phase 2 plant has no signed PPA yet. Management acknowledged it may operate on merchant basis for 1-2 years before tie-up, creating revenue volatility risk.
- The 570 MW Bhutan hydro project PPA terms—cost-plus vs. competitive bidding, and final tariffs—remain undecided, creating uncertainty on project economics and timeline.
Key quotes
- We achieved our highest ever quarterly power generation of 31 billion units and dispatched 28.8 billion units, a growth of 17%, which was a result of improved PLF as well as greater operating capacity.
- Continuing revenue from operation for quarter 27 increased by almost 28% to rupees 17,550 cr... profit after tax for quarter 1 FI26 rose by a stellar 47% year on year to rupees 4,867 cr
- The majority of the financing and funding we will be arranging for our internal accruals; any interim gap short-term gap that we will take from the market. So we are very much confident that we will be able to achieve our capex.
