Reliance Power Share Price Jumped Nearly 19% on Solar JV with Bhutan and Q4 FY25 Earnings 

On Friday, May 23, 2025, Reliance Power share price soared as much as 18.66% to hit an intraday high of ₹52.90. By 1:23 PM, the stock was trading at ₹52.29, up 17.29%, while the BSE Sensex rose 1.05% to 81,802.05. The strong rally in Reliance Power was driven by a mix of heavy trading volumes, a strategic solar partnership, and improved quarterly results.

The surge in Reliance Power’s stock came amid unusually high trading activity. On the BSE, around 24.23 million shares worth ₹120.80 crore were traded by early afternoon. On the NSE, the trading volume was even higher, with 282.43 million shares exchanging hands, amounting to a total turnover of ₹1,410.25 crore. The high demand for the stock reflected strong investor interest.

Solar Project Deal With Bhutan Boosts Sentiment

Earlier this week, Reliance Power entered into a ₹2,000 crore joint venture with Bhutan’s Druk Holding and Investments (DHI) to set up a 500 MW solar power plant. This initiative marks the largest private sector FDI in Bhutan's solar energy sector. The project will follow a 50:50 Build-Own-Operate (BOO) model. 

In addition, Reliance Power signed a commercial term sheet for a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Green Digital Private Limited, a subsidiary of DHI. This partnership highlights Reliance Power’s increasing emphasis on renewable energy expansion.

Strong Q4 FY25 Earnings Results 

Reliance Power also posted a net profit of ₹126 crore in Q4FY25, marking a turnaround from the ₹397.5 crore loss it reported in the same quarter last year. Although the total income dropped slightly to ₹2,066 crore from ₹2,193.8 crore, the company managed to sharply reduce its expenses to ₹1,998.49 crore, compared to ₹2,615.15 crore a year ago. The reduction in costs played a key role in boosting profitability.
