NHPC Share Price Gains for 3rd Straight Day After Board Clears ₹10,000 Crore Borrowing Plan

NHPC’s board has approved a revised borrowing plan of up to ₹10,000 crore for the current financial year. The funds are expected to support the hydropower company’s ongoing projects, expansion efforts, and operational requirements. This move reinforces the company’s capital-raising strategy at a time when infrastructure and renewable energy investments are gaining momentum in India.

NHPC Share Price Performance

NHPC Limited share price was trading at ₹79.69, up 0.13 points or 0.16% at 9:40 AM on the NSE from the previous close of ₹79.56. The stock opened at ₹79.50, touched an intraday high of ₹79.94, and a low of ₹79.36, with the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) at ₹79.70.

This move extends the stock’s winning streak, after it gained 1.27% on Tuesday and 1.72% on Monday, marking 3 consecutive sessions of upward momentum.

NHPC Q1 FY26 Recent Earnings Performance

NHPC reported a 4.2% year-on-year rise in consolidated net profit for the quarter ended June 2025.

• Net Profit: ₹1,065.02 crore (vs ₹1,021.77 crore in Q1FY25)
• Revenue: ₹3,213.77 crore, up 19.3% YoY
• EBITDA: ₹1,801.51 crore, up 12% YoY
• EBITDA Margin: 56.1%, reflecting some pressure compared to last year

The revenue growth demonstrates strong operational momentum, though margin compression highlights cost-related challenges.

Conclusion

With the stock climbing for the third straight session, investors are viewing the borrowing plan as a step toward strengthening NHPC’s project pipeline and growth prospects. However, the narrowing margins signal the need for careful monitoring of cost efficiencies in the coming quarters.
