Power distribution utilities in the country collectively recorded a profit of ₹2,701 crore in FY25 after having incurred losses for several years, an official statement said Sunday.
Distribution utilities as a whole have been reporting losses for past several years since unbundling and corporatization of State Electricity Boards.
The utilities collectively posted a loss of ₹25,553 crore in FY24 and a loss of ₹67,962 crore in FY14, the power ministry said in a statement.
Commenting on the profit in FY25, Power Minister Manohar Lal said this marks a new chapter for the distribution sector and is a result of several steps taken by the ministry to redress the concerns of the distribution sector.
