A) Revenue Growth
In FY 24, Sterlite Electric reported consolidated revenue of Rs 49,179 million, which grew marginally to Rs 49,557 million in FY 25, i.e. a 0.8% increase. While growth has slowed compared to the jump seen from FY 23 (Rs 32,786 million), the topline has stabilised at a higher scale.
B) EBITDA
Annual EBITDA stood at Rs 5,066 million in FY 24 and declined to Rs 4,724 million in FY 25, reflecting a 6.7% decrease. This suggests profitability pressures despite steady revenues.
C) Profit After Tax (PAT)
Sterlite Electric reported a loss of Rs (2,169) million in FY 24, which narrowed to Rs (1,563) million in FY 25 — an improvement of 28%. While still in the red, the company is moving toward better cost control and reduced losses.
D)Earnings Per Share (EPS)
The consolidated EPS improved from a negative Rs 18.62 per share in FY 24 to a negative Rs 13.78 per share in FY 25, marking a 26% improvement. This reflects progress in reducing net losses per shareholder.
Sterlite Cash Flow Analysis
Cash Flow | (In Rs Millions) | |
FY 25 | FY 24 | |
Net Cash Inflow from Operating Activities | 5,275 | (18,769) |
Net cash outflow from investing activities | (12,484) | (8,980) |
Net cash outflow from financing activities | 7130 | 28,757 |
Net Cash Flow | (79) | 1,008 |
A)Reduced financing support
In FY24, Sterlite relied heavily on financing (Rs 28,757 million inflow), which boosted cash reserves. In FY25, this inflow shrank to just Rs 7,130 million, leaving less external funding.
B)Higher capex/investments
Investing outflows rose sharply in FY25. Likely reasons:
Expansion of transmission projects.
Long-term asset purchases.
Strategic investments in subsidiaries/joint ventures.
C)Early stage turnaround
While operating cash has improved, it’s still not strong enough to fully cover both investment needs and reduced financing inflows.
