NTPC Green shares were under pressure on Monday, falling over 3% around 9:40 am after the company reported a mixed set of Q4 numbers. While revenue and EBITDA showed strong growth, the decline in net profit and a sharp margin compression appeared to weigh on investor sentiment.
The company’s net profit fell 15.5% year-on-year to Rs 197 crore from Rs 233 crore in the same quarter last year. In contrast, revenue rose 46.7% to Rs 912.6 crore from Rs 622.3 crore, reflecting robust operational expansion. EBITDA also increased 38.3% to Rs 774.5 crore from Rs 560.1 crore, showing that the business continued to scale up despite the profit drop.
However, the key concern for the market was the fall in EBITDA margin, which came in at 84.9% compared with 90% a year ago. Even though the absolute profit metrics remained healthy, the margin contraction suggests higher costs or a less favorable operating mix, which likely disappointed traders expecting a stronger earnings profile.
NTPC Green’s Q4 update indicates that the company continues to expand rapidly, but investors may now want clearer evidence of sustainable profitability. The 3% fall in the share price suggests the market is focusing more on the quality of earnings than on revenue growth alone.
