Tata Power Company, the largest private power firm in the country, has registered a 57.61 per cent rise in net profit at Rs 354.60 crore in the March-ended quarter. The rise was due to a Rs 308-crore gain from the company’s sale of its partial holdings in Tata Teleservices (TTSL).

Net sales fell 11.53 per cent to Rs 1,373 crore as compared with Rs 1,552 crore in the same period last year.
