  • Adjusted EBITDA grew 74% YoY to INR 494 Cr (Q1 FY26: INR 284 Cr).
  • The Company reported PAT of INR 55 Cr in Q1 FY27, aided by operating leverage and a larger base of stabilised assets.

Key Initiatives

To enhance operational efficiency, the Company has initiated the consolidation of select rooftop solar SPVs, representing 148 MWp of capacity across four SPVs, into the holding company. This consolidation is expected to drive operating efficiencies and strengthen cash flow generation over the coming years.

Additionally, our Board has approved the issuance of domestic bonds to diversify and expand its capital sources for future capital expenditure requirements. The proposed bond issuance is expected to improve funding competitiveness, optimise borrowing costs, and enable the Company to secure long-term financing at fixed interest rates.

Kuldeep Jain, Founder & Managing Director, said “We had a strong quarter. Operating results saw a strong growth in EBITDA, driven by volume growth and higher EBITDA margins in both business segments of RE Power Sales and RE Services. Further, we added a record new capacity of over 500 MW in the first quarter, and are well on track to meet our guidance of adding a minimum of 1,500 MW of new capacity during the year.”
Nikunj Ghodawat, Chief Financial Officer, said “Q1 FY27 reflects the strength of our business model as scale translates into stronger financial performance. As our commissioned portfolio grows, earnings, profitability, and cash flows continue to strengthen. Combined with a lower cost of debt and a strong credit profile, we’re well positioned to fund our growth pipeline while maintaining financial discipline.”
