Vedanta Power Q2 sales up 26% to 5,593 million units
Vedanta Power Ltd reported a 26% year-on-year rise in power sales to 5,593 million units (MU) in the second quarter of FY2026-27, compared to 4,433 MU in the same period last year. First-half sales grew 32% to 10,817 MU, driven by stronger plant performance and improved availability across its portfolio.
The growth was led by Meenakshi Energy, where Q2 sales surged 111% to 1,470 MU, and Jharsuguda Thermal Plant, where sales jumped 186% to 873 MU. The plant availability factor at Jharsuguda rose to 98% from 43% a year earlier. Talwandi Sabo Thermal Plant contributed a steady 2,945 MU in Q2, up 6%.
Vedanta Power was listed on the BSE and NSE in June. The company plans to add about 600 MW of capacity by the end of FY27 and targets 12 GW by FY33.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All six sources cover Vedanta Group companies' quarterly updates with uniform straight-reporting, and no source adopts a critical or politically slanted frame. CNBCTV18, The Hindu BusinessLine, Economic Times and Business Today each led with the 26% sales growth for Vedanta Power and attributed the figures to company statements. Business Today added forward-looking capacity targets and index-inclusion news that the others omitted, but did not editorialise. The coverage is identical in substance across outlets, differing only in the depth of plant-level breakdown. The key numbers to track are the 600 MW capacity addition planned by the end of FY27 and the 12 GW target by FY33, both disclosed in the sources.
