This growth in total income indicates a positive trajectory over the past year, reflecting an overall improvement in revenue generation.
Profitability
The profitability metrics for Reliance Power Ltd in Q4FY25 indicate a challenging financial performance. The company reported a loss before tax of ₹461.35 crores, a sharp downturn from the profit before tax of ₹49.88 crores in Q3FY25, representing a drastic QoQ decline of 1024.9%. This is a substantial decrease compared to a profit before tax of ₹164.42 crores in Q4FY24, representing a YoY decline of 380.6%. The tax benefit recorded for Q4FY25 was ₹46.07 crores, compared to a tax of ₹7.93 crores in Q3FY25 and a tax benefit of ₹85.49 crores in Q4FY24. The company's loss after tax in Q4FY25 was ₹397.56 crores, which is a significant decline from a profit after tax of ₹41.95 crores in Q3FY25 and from ₹256.91 crores in Q4FY24.

Operating Metrics
Total expenses for Reliance Power in Q4FY25 were reported at ₹2,615.15 crores, reflecting a QoQ increase of 24.0% from ₹2,109.56 crores in Q3FY25, but a YoY decrease of 4.2% from ₹2,728.76 crores in Q4FY24. This increase in expenses from the previous quarter, despite a decrease from the same quarter last year, suggests variability in the cost structure. The sharp increase in expenses compared to the revenue growth on a QoQ basis contributed to the operating losses. The company's operational efficiency, as indicated by the disproportionate increase in expenses relative to income, is an area of interest for further analysis.
