What the record says.
NTPC reported a strong Q2 FY24 with PAT of INR 3,885 crore, up 16.6% YoY, driven by higher generation and improved coal availability. Standalone gross generation rose to 179 BU in H1, with coal PLF at 76.62% vs national average of 68.75%. The company is aggressively expanding its renewable pipeline, targeting 15 GW by FY26 and 60 GW by FY32, while also planning to award 11.2 GW of new thermal capacity over the next 12 months. Coal production hit a record 16.06 MMT in H1, up 83% YoY. Management guided for a consolidated PAT premium of 15-20% over standalone. Key risk: execution delays in renewable and pumped storage projects due to clearances and supply chain issues.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
