As India continues its transition toward cleaner energy, biomass and biofuel companies are gaining attention. The demand for sustainable solutions is growing steadily, backed by supportive policies and innovations in the renewable space. For investors, this presents a long-term opportunity to diversify into green energy stocks with potential.
Here’s a look at three companies that stand out in the biomass and bioenergy segment:
Orient Green Power is one of the largest independent renewable energy producers in India, focusing mainly on wind power. With an installed capacity of 402.3 MW across India and Croatia, the company has been aiming to gradually expand its portfolio.
In Q4FY25, revenue stood at ₹41 crore, up 13.9% YoY and 20.6% QoQ. Though the company remains loss-making, its net loss narrowed to ₹15 crore from ₹25 crore YoY and ₹22 crore QoQ, indicating improving operational efficiency.
Praj Industries is a key player in industrial biotechnology and sustainable engineering solutions, with presence in over 100 countries. The company is known for its work in bioenergy, water treatment, and critical process equipment.
For Q4FY25, the company posted revenue of ₹860 crore, down 15.6% YoY but slightly up 0.8% QoQ. Net profit declined to ₹40 crore, a 56.5% drop YoY, signaling some pressure on margins despite stable revenues.
Balrampur Chini is a well-established sugar manufacturer with a growing focus on ethanol production and renewable energy. It operates 10 plants with a crushing capacity of 80,000 TCD.
In Q4FY25, revenue rose to ₹1,504 crore, up 4.9% YoY and 26.2% QoQ. Net profit surged to ₹229 crore, up 12.8% YoY and more than double QoQ, driven by strong operations and ethanol contribution.

The biomass and biofuel sector remains an important pillar in India’s clean energy shift. While companies like Orient Green are showing steady recovery, Praj Industries is facing short-term margin pressures. Meanwhile, Balrampur Chini stands out with solid revenue and profit growth.
