The double-digit revenue growth was attributed to the contribution from the newly operationalized transmission assets, the commissioning of elements at North Karanpura and MP-II package lines and an increase in the units sold because of higher energy consumption in the distribution business at Mumbai and Mundra.

On the smart metering business segment, the company said that its order book has further expanded to 22.8 million smart meters, with a revenue potential of ₹27,195 crore. “The meter deployment activity is pacing up well,” the company added in the statement.

Several Adani Group companies including Adani Enterprises, Adani Power, Adani Ports and Adani Wilmar are scheduled to report earnings later this week. Adani Total Gas reported earnings earlier today. The company reported a net profit of ₹167.96 crore, up around 71% from the ₹98 crore posted in the same quarter last year.
