Power Generation Strengthens

NLC’s commitment to clean energy is reflected in its rising renewable power generation.

This growth is partly attributed to a rise in renewable power generation, which reached 546.63 MU in Q1 FY2025, compared to 539.28 MU in the same period of the previous year.

Market Recognition and Investor Confidence

NLC’s strong financial performance is reflected in its rising market capitalisation. The company’s share price climbed by 5.28% during Q1 FY2025, increasing from ₹228.10 per share to ₹240.15 per share. This upward trend indicates growing investor confidence in NLC’s future prospects.
