Financial Highlights
During the quarter, AESL experienced significant financial upticks. Total income saw a growth of over 50 percent, while EBITDA increased by approximately 67 percent. Profit After Tax (PAT) surged by an impressive 145 percent. This strong financial performance reflects the company’s strategic focus and operational efficiency across its four core businesses: Transmission, Distribution, Smart Metering, and Energy Solutions.
Transmission Segment Growth
The Transmission segment continues to be a key growth driver. AESL added two new projects, Vizag Pendurthi and Satara, during the quarter, maintaining an order book of approximately INR87,000 crores. The company is focusing on critical transmission assets to integrate renewable energy and consumption, with planned capex of around INR14,000 crores for the transmission business, with a substantial portion of INR8,000 to INR9,000 crores expected in the second half of the current fiscal year.
Distribution and Smart Metering Expansion
In the Distribution segment, particularly for AEML and MUL, AESL reported exceptional operational performance. Distribution losses in Mumbai were reduced to 4.29 percent in the first half, despite a more than 10 percent increase in consumption. The Smart Metering vertical has successfully delivered approximately 14.8 million meters so far, with plans to complete the remaining order book within 12 to 14 months.
Energy Solutions Platform Development
The Energy Solutions platform is transitioning from incubation to scale, delivering over INR2,000 crores in revenue and over INR800 crores in EBITDA during the quarter. The company has secured tie-ups for 4 gigawatts of renewables and 3.5 gigawatts of base capacity, with ongoing efforts to expand its consumer side tie-ups, including a 2,500-megawatt RE-RTC contract with MSEDCL.
