Results kaise rahe? Q4 mein kya hua?
Tata Power expects FY27 mein better earnings, mainly because of their clean energy business. Renewable pipeline badh raha hai, rooftop solar ki sales mast chal rahi hai, aur solar manufacturing se bhi achha profit aa raha hai. Unka Mundra plant bhi ab stable hai aur storage projects mein bhi investment ho rahi hai. India mein power ki demand badh rahi hai, jo ki ek positive sign hai.
Par, March quarter ke results thode mixed rahe. Consolidated revenue 13% kam ho gaya, matlab ₹14,900 crore pe aa gaya, mostly thermal aur hydro power se kam earning hone ki wajah se. Par, EBITDA 5.3% badh kar ₹3,661 crore ho gaya, jo dikhata hai ki operational efficiency achhi hai aur growth areas mein performance mazboot hai. Poore saal ka EBITDA lagbhag 10% badh kar ₹15,116 crore ho gaya.
Growth ke Reasons aur Challenges?
Maze ki baat yeh hai ki company ka solar manufacturing business ek bada profit driver ban gaya hai. Iski 4.3 GW facility ne FY26 mein profit double kar diya, ₹857 crore tak. Rooftop solar segment ne bhi apna profit double kiya, ₹890 crore tak, jismein 1.7 GW install kiya gaya.
Lekin, execution mein lagatar issues aa rahe hain. Transmission lines ready hone mein aur project land approvals mein delays hone ki wajah se FY26 mein projects start karne mein der ho gayi. Company ko umeed hai ki yeh projects FY27 aur FY28 mein start honge. Is execution issue aur grid connection problems ki wajah se, FY26 mein ₹13,000 crore ka capital spending target miss ho gaya. FY27 ke liye, Tata Power ₹25,000 crore ka capital spending plan kar raha hai.
Valuation ki baat?
Tata Power currently 30-37 times FY28 earnings ke hisab se trade kar raha hai, jo ki growth stock ke liye normal hai. Agar rivals ko dekhein, toh NTPC 16-24 times P/E par hai, aur JSW Energy bhi 33-41 times par. Adani Green Energy toh 127 times P/E se bhi upar hai, jo renewable growth ki expectations dikhata hai.
Tata Power ka valuation uske badhte renewable capacity aur diverse business ko dekhte hue theek lagta hai, par sector ke average P/E 20 se thoda upar hai. Stock mein volatility bhi dekhi gayi hai, May 2024 mein ₹446-₹451 ke aas paas tha, phir May 2025 mein ₹392.80 tak gir gaya tha, aur ab recover ho raha hai.
Skeptics kya bol rahe hain?
Kuch analysts positive hain, par kuch critical perspective se dekhte hain. Goldman Sachs ne 'Sell' rating di hai aur ₹300 ka target diya hai, unhe renewable execution, transmission limits, aur valuation premium ki chinta hai. March quarter mein revenue ka significant drop bhi attention mangta hai, especially jab FY27 ke liye ₹25,000 crore ka capex planned hai, jo cash flows par pressure dal sakta hai.
Moody's bhi bol raha hai ki Indian power sector mein energy costs badh rahi hain, jo government finances ko affect kar sakta hai. Company ka historically low 10.7% return on equity aur 3.3 times book value se upar trade karna bhi overvaluation ka sign ho sakta hai. Management ke purane project execution issues bhi ek worry hain.
Aage kya?
Tata Power ki clean energy capacity 46% se badh kar 66% ho jayegi jab uska 9.6 GW pipeline operational ho jayega. Transmission aur distribution se bhi earnings badhne ki umeed hai. Storage projects bhi market position ko strong karenge.
Mostly analysts 'Buy' recommend kar rahe hain jinka price target ₹410 se ₹490 ke beech hai, par kuch execution risks ke baare mein warn kar rahe hain. Dekhna hoga ki company in operational issues ko kaise handle karti hai aur apne growth plans ko kaise execute karti hai.
