In September 2026, non-solar-hour prices surged to INR9.5/unit, up from Rs 3.2/unit in September 2025, while solar-hour prices remained elevated at INR5.6/unit. India's power demand rose 12 per cent year-on-year to 163 billion units in September 2026.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The increased demand and higher prices are expected to drive up India's power sector profit growth by up to 11 per cent year-on-year in Q2FY27. This growth is supported by high plant load factors and strong electricity demand in India.

A report by HSBC noted that increased demand in India led to higher prices on the Indian Energy Exchange.
