JSW Energy Q4 expectations

JSW Energy's financial performance for the quarter ended March 2025 will be marked by a strong sequential recovery, with notable improvements in key financial metrics. However, earnings are likely to muted when compared with the previous year period.

Net sales are expected to reach Rs 29,89 crore, according to Kotak Equities representing a 23% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) growth and an 8% year-on-year (YoY) increase. This revenue growth is a clear indication of strong demand recovery across its product and service segments.

"Generation at 7.4 BU (+16% YoY) due to a contribution from Ind-Barath and the recently added renewable assets along with the recently acquired 1,800 MW capacity. Weak prices of imported coal, coupled with modest merchant tariffs, could impact earnings," Kotak said.

EBITDA is projected to remain stable at Rs 1,168 crore, registering a 28% QoQ rise, although it is expected to remain flat on a YoY basis. The EBITDA margin is estimated at 39.1%, showing an improvement of 160 basis points QoQ but a decline of 333 basis points YoY, indicating better cost management in the near term despite some margin pressure compared to the previous year.

The company’s profitability is also likely to see a sharp turnaround on a sequential basis. Adjusted PAT is forecast to rise to Rs 2,58 crore, marking a significant 199.5% QoQ increase, but a modest 4.5% on a YoY basis.
