IREDA reports ₹891.75 crore half-year profit; auditors flag court-held NPAs, frauds and governance fines

The renewable-energy lender's standalone profit rose over the year-earlier half, even as auditors drew attention to ₹386.76 crore of court-held standard accounts and ₹672.74 crore in frauds reported to the RBI.

What was filed

Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited (IREDA) filed its audited standalone interim financial statements for the half year ended 30 September 2026. The results carry an unmodified audit opinion. They were reviewed and recommended by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors at meetings held on 19 October 2026.

IREDA is a Navratna Government of India enterprise under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, registered with the RBI as an NBFC in the Middle Layer and as an Infrastructure Finance Company. Its equity shares and debt securities are listed on the NSE and BSE.

The half-year numbers

Growth ran across the lender's core metrics over the year-earlier half, per the filing. Interest income and total income both rose, while finance costs and impairment charges also increased. Profit for the period was higher than the comparable half of the prior year; total comprehensive income, however, was lower, reflecting a swing in the cash flow hedge reserve recognised through other comprehensive income.

The balance sheet continued to expand. Gross loans and total borrowings were both larger than a year earlier, and the filing reports a debt-equity ratio of 5.64 in its capital-management disclosure.

Auditor emphasis and asset-quality notes

The auditors drew attention to Note 38(2), on the constitution of the audit committee and adoption of the financial statements. Per the filing, the Audit Committee comprises one Independent Director and two Non-Executive Directors, pending appointment of the requisite number of Independent Directors by the Government of India.

Under Other Matters, the auditors noted that certain accounts required to be classified as Stage III / NPA have been held as Stage II / Standard, aggregating ₹386.76 crore, in terms of interim orders of High Courts, with interest on such accounts recognised on a collection basis. The filing also records three fraud cases totalling ₹672.74 crore reported to the RBI during the period, and separately discloses fines imposed by the stock exchanges for non-compliance with certain SEBI (LODR) corporate-governance regulations, for which the company has sought waivers.
