PTC India Limited reported a 25% decline in profit after tax to ₹83 crores for Q3 FY26, down from ₹111 crores last year. This drop was attributed to reduced rebate income amid improved liquidity among DISCOMs, despite a 4% increase in trading volumes. The company is also undergoing a promoter structure change with NTPC set to become the sole promoter.
