Mumbai Jan. 29 Tata Power reported a 22.9 per cent increase in its third quarter net profit although revenues declined by 2 per cent.

In the corresponding year-ago quarter, the company completed the sale of Tata Power Broadband, which had resulted in a profit of Rs 131.97 crore.

Reversal of taxes provided for earlier contributed to the increase in profits, said a news release from the company

The company reported a net profit of Rs 279.9 crore for the quarter, against Rs 227.65 a year ago.

Revenues stood at Rs 1,200.5 crore, down from Rs 1,224.77 crore. This was despite sales volumes increasing 9.05 per cent, to 3,655 million units.

The company is poised to assume a steep growth trajectory, said Mr Prasad Menon, Managing Director, Tata Power. This is an offshoot of its increasing national presence, including contracts for a mega power project and a 1,000-megawatt project in Chhattisgarh.

Its nine-month profit after tax for the fiscal rose 28 per cent to 604 crore while revenues were up 12 per cent, at Rs 3,770 crore. Sales volumes rose 6.75 per cent, to 11,007 million units.
