Power generation major NTPC declared results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ending March 2011. The company declared 17% and 18% YoY growth respectively for the quarter and full year. The bottom line however, remained flat year on year. The capital expenditure undertaken by the company in FY11 was 22% higher than that in FY10.
