  • NHPC's Q4 net profit rose 52% year-on-year to ₹919.63 crore, driven by a 24% increase in revenue to ₹2,347 crore.
  • The company's full-year profit for FY25 fell by 15% to ₹3,411.73 crore, reflecting challenges from weather-related asset losses.

  • The board recommended a final dividend of ₹0.51 per share for FY25, adding to the interim ₹1.40 dividend paid in March, pending shareholder approval.
  • NHPC commissioned the 800 MW Parbati-II hydro project and partially commissioned the 300 MW Karnisar solar plant in April, while continuing to manage insurance claims for flood and landslide damages.
