SJVN Share Price Declines After Reporting Net Loss In Q4

SJVN Ltd.'s share price fell by 4.37% following the announcement of its Q4 FY25 results, which revealed a net loss of Rs 127 crore. The company's financial performance showed mixed results, leading to a negative reaction from investors.

SJVN reported a revenue increase of 4.56% year-on-year, reaching Rs 504 crore, compared to Rs 482 crore in the previous year. Ebitda saw a modest rise of 0.83%, amounting to Rs 241 crore versus Rs 239 crore. However, the Ebitda margin declined by 176 basis points to 47.81%, down from 49.58%.

The most significant impact on SJVN's financial performance was the net loss of Rs 127 crore, compared to a profit of Rs 61 crore in the same quarter last year. This decline was partly due to the absence of an exceptional gain of Rs 103.84 crore that was recorded in the previous year's quarter.

The scrip fell as much as 4.37% to Rs 97.70 apiece. It pared losses to trade 4.17% higher at Rs 97.90 apiece, as of 10:15 a.m. This compares to a 0.16% decline in the NSE Nifty 50.

It has fallen 26.78% in the last 12 months. Total traded volume so far in the day stood at 3.9 times its 30-day average. The relative strength index was at 48.

Out of six analysts tracking the company, four maintain a 'buy' rating, one recommends a 'hold' and one suggests 'sell', according to Bloomberg data. The average 12-month consensus price target implies an upside of 15.1%.
