Institutions: Ministry of New and Renewable Energy
India’s renewable-energy finance momentum accelerated in Q2 FY 2025-26, with the Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency (IREDA) reporting a 41 % rise in net profit and 81 % growth in loan disbursements over the same quarter last year. Announcing the results, Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy Pralhad Joshi said the performance demonstrates India’s growing self-reliance in clean-energy financing.
IREDA’s Board approved the audited financial results for Q2 FY26, showing strong year-on-year expansion across all metrics: loan sanctions rose to ₹ 21,408 crore (↑ 145 %), loan disbursements reached ₹ 8,062 crore (↑ 81 %), and the loan book expanded to ₹ 84,477 crore (↑ 31 %). Net worth increased to ₹ 12,920 crore (↑ 38 %), and profit after tax stood at ₹ 549 crore.
Chairman & Managing Director Pradip Kumar Das attributed the performance to operational discipline, stakeholder confidence, and IREDA’s pivotal role in enabling India’s renewable transition. The results were simultaneously disclosed to stock exchanges under SEBI LODR Regulations (2025), ensuring transparency and governance alignment.
IREDA’s robust quarterly growth reinforces its central role in achieving India’s 500-GW non-fossil-fuel target by 2030. Expanding loan disbursements signal deepening credit access for renewable projects and domestic equipment manufacturing. However, sustained progress will depend on reducing borrowing costs, enhancing green-bond mobilisation, and ensuring timely power-purchase settlements that protect lender liquidity.
