On the reaction day the stock moved 6.7 pts more than Nifty Midcap 150 and 6.5 pts more than its Power Generation peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Consolidated Q2 FY27 revenue was Rs 4,732.35 crore versus Rs 4,178.41 crore in Q2 FY26, while profit after tax rose 83.3% to Rs 1,328.01 crore from Rs 724.80 crore. Deferred tax gains aided profit; margins weakened. Consolidated debt was 1.20 times equity. Rs 1,537 crore fully provisioned for NUPPL advances. Board approved a 15% dividend, up to Rs 2,500 crore of bonds, a 660 MW expansion and sale of up to 10 crore NIRL shares for its listing.
Dividend supports returns, but a Rs 1,537 crore provision, weaker margins and debt at 1.20 times equity raise risk; profit growth relied on tax gains.
