Tata Power emerged as the top-ranking power utility in the country by scoring 67 points in S&P Rating, with 85 percentile. Tata Power has been winning the award from ICAI Award for Excellence in Financial Reporting for the past three years.
We are on a growth trajectory that requires continual investments for projects and ventures, in addition to maintaining optimal operational performance. Our financial capital is powered by a mix of debt and equity sources, apart from our rising cashflows and accruals. As part of our strategy, we are according an undeterred focus on maintaining a strong balance sheet and improving our return profile while targeting growth.
We are strategically positioned to drive long-term shareholder returns by capitalising on significant market potential and emerging prospects. Our focus on renewable energy has led to exponential growth in that sector, aligning with promising opportunities. We are undergoing a transformation to prioritise our brand and customer-centric approach. Our plans include expanding our distribution network throughout India, utilising technology to expand rooftop solar initiatives, and developing innovative, low-carbon solutions such as ESCO, home automation, and EV charging. These efforts firmly establish us as one of the leading energy companies in India.
It has been a constant endeavour by our Company to improve our balance sheet position significantly. In FY23, we have been able to maintain a sustainable debt profile, led by robust cash flows from operations, equity contribution from strategic partners, measured approach to capital expenditure as well as proceeds from the divestment of non-core assets. Tata Power’s net debt/ underlying EBITDA has improved to 2.66 in FY23 from 3.92 in FY22 on a consolidated level, reinforcing the Company’s commitment to maintaining a comfortable debt position for sustainable growth.
Debt reduction
- Improved focus on collection from customers. Favourable legal orders in Andhra Pradesh, government notification on EMI payment for outstanding dues and increased engagement with Discoms ensured the liquidation of receivables
- Working capital management through supplier credit and other trade finance structures ensured credit terms were enhanced
- Divestment of stake in the renewable-energy business and higher dividend from coal SPVs on account of higher international coal prices
