Full analysisRevenue guidance
Category 4- The company reported a positive PBT of Rs. 3.7 crore for the 9 months ended December 2019, despite a subdued wind season.
- There is optimism for FY21 assuming an average or good wind season which could add 5-6 crore units, translating to an additional Rs. 4.5 to Rs. 5 per unit, improving profitability.
- Renewable energy obligations (RPO) are increasing year-on-year by 50 to 100 basis points, sustaining demand for RECs which support revenue.
- The government is taking serious measures to resolve payment delays by discoms, which if resolved, would improve cash flow and support refinancing and interest cost reductions.
- Competitive bidding caps have previously deterred new bids, but policy adjustments and government announcements may revive interest and growth in the renewable sector.
- Overall market demand is expected to improve with government focus on increasing renewable energy share to 23-25% in the next 3-4 years.
