New Delhi, Aug 4 (PTI) Siemens Energy India on Monday posted an over 80 per cent rise in its net profit to Rs 263 crore in June quarter compared to a year ago, mainly on the back of higher revenues.

It had a net profit of Rs 146 crore in the quarter ended June 2024, a company statement stated.

The company follows the financial year from October to September.

Revenues from operations rose to Rs 1,785 crore in the quarter from Rs 1,484 crore in the same period a year ago.

New orders during the quarter rose to Rs 3,290 crore from Rs 1,693 crore recorded a year ago.

The company announced an investment of Rs 280 crore in a phased manner in manufacturing capacity expansion of high-voltage switchgear products at its Aurangabad factory.

This expansion will enable the company to meet the growing demand for power transmission equipment, both in India and globally.
