New Delhi, Oct 29 (PTI) ACME Solar Holdings has reported more than doubling of its consolidated net profit to Rs 269 crore in the September quarter of FY27, driven by higher revenues from battery energy storage systems and renewable energy capacity additions.
The company had posted a net profit of Rs 115 crore in the second quarter of the preceding financial year, ACME Solar Holdings said in an exchange filing on Wednesday.
During July-September, the company’s total income rose to Rs 1,007 crore from Rs 601 crore in the year-ago period.
In a statement, the company said, the “revenues increased by 67.5 per cent for the quarter (year-on-year basis), primarily driven by BESS (battery energy storage system) and RE (renewable energy) capacity addition.”
Its EBITDA also increased by 63.6 per cent to Rs 874 crore from Rs 534 crore in July-September FY26.
During the quarter, the company commissioned 2.1 GWh BESS capacity, taking its cumulative commissioned capacity to 5.2 GWh (gigawatt hour), the second-largest installed BESS capacity in India.
ACME generated 1,840 million units (MUs) of clean energy in Q2 FY27, up 19.6 per cent from the corresponding quarter of FY26, driven by capacity addition and higher irradiation.
Additionally, 324 million units sold in Q2 FY27 through short-term peak power BESS operations.
The capacity utilisation factor has increased from 24.1 per cent in Q2 FY26 to 27.8 per cent in Q2 FY27.
