NEW DELHI: Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) has posted nearly 10-fold jump in its consolidated net profit at Rs 219 crore for the June quarter, compared to the year-ago period, mainly on the back of higher revenues.

“The acquisition of SB Energy’s high quality renewable energy portfolio has further consolidated our position as the world’s largest solar player thereby keeping us on track to become the world largest renewables player by 2030,” Adani added.
Sales of electricity rose to 2,054 million units in the June quarter this year, from 1,385 million units in the same period a year ago.
