Total income rose to Rs 22,403.69 crore in the quarter from Rs 19,344.39 crore in the same period a year ago.

Owing to continuous and active resolution efforts, consolidated net NPA (bad loans) reached below 1 per cent and is at 0.98 per cent in April-September 2023 from 1.27 per cent in April-September 2022. Gross NPA (bad loans) also declined significantly by 98 basis points from 4.38 per cent in H1’23 to 3.40 per cent in H1’24, it stated.
PFC Group is the nodal agency for implementation of Late Payment Surcharge Rules.
With the implementation of these rules, there has been more than 50 per cent reduction in the legacy dues which were payable by discoms to the generation companies.
On a standalone basis, it recorded a 2.5 times jump in disbursements (of loans)- from Rs 21,790 crore in H1’23 to Rs 55,562 crore in H1’24.
A substantial uptick in disbursements is driven by lending on the distribution front and towards renewable energy projects, it explained.
