The Indian Energy Exchange (IEX) has reported a substantial rise in profits, outpacing last year's figures by 25% for the quarter ending September 30, 2024. The company cited revenues' boost as a key factor, pushing its consolidated net profit to Rs 108.32 crore, compared to Rs 86.46 crore the previous year.

The increase in total income to Rs 167.76 crore and a 38.2% growth in trading volume were significant contributors. Favorable weather conditions and abundant energy resources supported market liquidity, resulting in a notable drop in power prices on the exchange.

Furthermore, its subsidiary, International Carbon Exchange, was recognized as India's first International Renewable Energy Certificate Issuer. This feat coincides with a mixed performance in the gas market, where the Indian Gas Exchange (IGX) posted a slight decrease in profit after tax.
