NTPC Green Energy shares experienced a 4% decline on Monday, reaching an intraday low of ₹100.31, following the announcement of a 15% year-on-year decrease in consolidated net profit for the March quarter. The company's profit after tax (PAT) for Q4FY26 was ₹197 crore, down from ₹233 crore in the same quarter last year, despite a substantial revenue increase of 47% to ₹913 crore. This revenue growth reflects strong operational performance across its renewable energy portfolio.
