Market Round-up

Nov 26: 1) DAM–RTM price gap tightened through 19–25 Nov
8Day-ahead weighted MCP ranged Rs 2,868.87–3,301.42/MWh; RTM sat mostly Rs 3,241.93–4,019.99/MWh.
Inference: Narrower daily gaps on 23–25 Nov align with softer DAM (23 Nov) and a mid-range RTM band (23–25 Nov) across exchanges.
Why it matters: Smaller basis between D-1 and intraday reduces procurement risk for portfolios leaning on RTM top-ups.

2) PXIL printed a flat Rs 10,000/MWh across RTM days
8PXIL’s RTM weighted MCP shows Rs 10,000/MWh on 19, 20, 21, 22, 24 and 25-11-2025.
Inference: A fixed-price print with modest scheduled volumes suggests limited depth and competitive tension in this window.
Why it matters: Participants relying on PXIL RTM face all-or-nothing fills at a single price point, complicating cost control.

3) HPX RTM saw near-zero participation over the week
8HPX RTM shows no cleared volume and “0.00” MCP across 19–25-11-2025, with only token purchase bids.
Inference: Sparse order book depth likely inhibited price discovery, keeping the platform sidelined for RTM procurement.
Why it matters: Liquidity fragmentation raises execution risk; portfolios must diversify to avoid missed balancing windows.

4) Frequency held 49.995 Hz mean but showed wide tails
8On 25-11-2025, average frequency was 49.995 Hz; max 50.247 Hz at 06:02, min 49.811 Hz at 17:26:30.
Inference: Morning headroom and evening tightness are consistent with daily load shape, even with a near-50.00 mean.
Why it matters: Wider tails raise imbalance exposure for DSM-sensitive entities despite a benign daily average.

5) Zero corridor ATC violations reported on 25 Nov
8System Reliability Indices list 0 blocks violated for WR–NR, ER–NR, NEW–SR and other headline corridors.
Inference: Unconstrained inter-regional limits reduced forced redispatch risk during the day’s 96 blocks.
Why it matters: Stable transfer capability supports tighter market spreads and cleaner schedule adherence.

6) Southern Region hit forecast close-outs with no peak shortage
8SR’s daily report shows evening-peak demand met at 48,437 MW with frequency 50.09 Hz; Karnataka’s LGBR deviation was −2.76 MU.
Inference: Tight forecast discipline and adequate supply at peak kept deviations in check.
Why it matters: Better forecast accuracy lowers balancing costs and curbs UI/DSM exposure at state peripheries.

7) Coal stock dispersion: Kota above norm, Suratgarh low
8Kota TPS carried 18.2 days (104% of norm) vs Suratgarh entries at 42%–72% of norm on 24-11-2025.
Inference: Divergent inventory cushions imply uneven outage and procurement risk if rail flows tighten.
Why it matters: Plants below normative buffers face higher spot-fuel or interchange dependence during ramps.

8) Voltage discipline was broad, with few mild deviations
8Nodes like Agra, Anta, Bhadla held 100.00% in-band; Ajmer registered 2.85% over-voltage time on 25-11-2025.
Inference: Local reactive support and tap settings kept most 765-kV/400-kV buses compliant, with isolated excursions.
Why it matters: Better VDI cuts VAR intervention costs and stabilises corridor performance.

Contracting news for the day: Part-6

Nov 25: GUVNL RfS Phase-XXVIII pushes evacuation and performance risk onto developers while offering greenshoe scale at discovered L1 tariffs
8GUVNL’s new RfS for 625 MW (greenshoe 625 MW) makes bidders carry full transmission and commissioning risk up to the delivery point.
8The deployment of high per-MW bank guarantees and a 22% CUF floor with 150% tariff penalty on shortfall sharply raises the cost of failure for developers.
8Greenshoe at L1 with a 10-day acceptance window lets GUVNL scale at market price but forces bidders to mobilise substantial additional securities Details

Market Round-up

Nov 25: 1) Average frequency steady at 50.03 Hz on 2025-11-24
8All-India average frequency printed 50.03 Hz across the day (T1–T96).
Inference: A benign mean aligns with an absence of large disturbance flags in the day’s top-level reliability set.
Why it matters: A stable 50 Hz anchor lowers inadvertent interchange risk and compresses balancing costs.

2) TTC/ATC sheet shows six “Violated” flags on 2025-11-24
8The daily TTC/ATC report lists six instances of “Violated” across four numbered entries for the day.
Inference: Repeated flags on a handful of corridors point to persistent checks on the same constraints rather than a system-wide bind.
Why it matters: Concentrated constraints can still raise redispatch and congestion management costs over affected blocks.

3) Planned unit outages far outnumber forced: 78 vs 18 (2025-11-24)
8Generating Unit Outage Report shows 78 planned versus 18 forced outages on the day.
Inference: Maintenance windows dominated tripping events, supporting more predictable reserve scheduling.
Why it matters: Planned-heavy mixes typically temper ancillary exposure and reduce volatility across evening peaks.

4) Transmission elements: “C” (continuous) edges “D” (daily) 111 vs 110
8The Transmission Element Report’s daily/continuous field tallies “C”=111 and “D”=110 entries on 2025-11-24.
Inference: A slight tilt toward continuous conditions implies multi-block transfer headroom impacts.
Why it matters: Even marginally higher continuous constraints can propagate price separation risk across multiple 15-minute blocks.

5) Ranchi New 765 kV held 100.00% within voltage band (2025-11-23)
8The ER VDI table lists “RANCHI NEW 765kV” at 100.00% time within the permitted voltage band for the day.
Inference: Node-level voltage discipline at 765 kV suggests adequate reactive support and tap settings through shoulder hours.
Why it matters: Strong bus-level compliance cuts VAR interventions and reduces under/over-voltage penalty exposure.

6) SCUC economics: ECRs clustered ~272.5–302.9 paise/kWh in top rows (D-1)
8The D-1 SCUC table shows examples: NPGC ECR 272.5 paise/kWh (blocks 49–62); Mauda units at ~291.7–297.9 paise/kWh; MTPS-2 at ~300.2 paise/kWh; Telangana STPP at ~302.9 paise/kWh.
Inference: Tight ECR clustering implies a relatively flat marginal stack for coal across core SCUC-eligible blocks.
Why it matters: Flat ECR bands compress clearing price dispersion when ATC is non-binding, stabilising MCP in contiguous blocks.

7) All-India thermal fell short of program: 3,397.68 MU vs 3,800.32 MU (-15.21%)
8CEA’s daily generation table for 2025-11-21 records “ALL INDIA THERMAL” today’s actual at 3,397.68 MU against a program of 3,800.32 MU (-15.21%).
Inference: A program-actual gap of this size likely tightened reserve margins intra-day (without implying causation).
Why it matters: Material shortfalls elevate balancing needs and can widen MCP tails if coincident with corridor constraints.

8) Anta node shows 100.00% compliance in reliability indices snapshot (2025-11-24)
8System Reliability Indices list “Anta” with 0.00% outside and 100.00% within the specified voltage band on the day.
Inference: Node-level compliance here indicates local voltage kept inside target limits across all blocks.
Why it matters: Persistent in-band operation reduces VAR support costs and curbs stress on adjacent corridors.

Market Round-up

Nov 24: 1) DAM–RTM Basis Widens on 2025-11-23 Evening
8Weighted MCP in RTM was ~Rs 3,241.93/MWh versus DAM ~Rs 2,868.87/MWh on 2025-11-23, widening the same-day basis by ~Rs 373/MWh in evening blocks.
Inference: With no documented corridor binds that day, the premium likely reflected intraday scarcity rather than transfer limits (cross-check reliability files).
Why it matters: Portfolios exposed to RTM peaks faced ~Rs 0.37/kWh higher energy cost against pre-positioned DAM volumes.

2) Three-Day HPDAM Offer Stack Went Unused
8Across 2025-11-21 to 2025-11-23, HPDAM carried 876,162.60 MWh of sell bids and 0.00 MWh purchase bids or cleared volume.
Inference: Buyers deferred flexible hydro cover to other products or hours, leaving offered peaking flexibility un-monetised.
Why it matters: Unused hydro flexibility re-surfaces as higher volatility and cost in RTM peaks.

3) HPX “ASDAM” Stayed Dormant All Week
8HPX’s ASDAM product shows zero transaction activity across 17-11-2025 to 23-11-2025 (bids, clears, MCP all 0).
Inference: Thin liquidity in this lane pushes flexibility procurement into DAM/RTM, concentrating price risk elsewhere.
Why it matters: Market depth fragmentation raises execution risk for portfolios counting on product diversity for hedging.

4) 117 Transmission Elements on Continuous Outage; 400 kV Dominates
8Between 2025-11-21 and 2025-11-23, 117 elements are flagged “Continuous” outages; 400 kV accounts for 64 of them (vs 28 at 220 kV).
Inference: Extended topology reductions at 400 kV erode redundancy even on non-binding days, lengthening post-contingency recovery paths.
Why it matters: Medium-term resilience and redispatch costs hinge on clearing these continuous outages.

5) Frequency Variability Halved by 2025-11-23
8Average frequency steadied at 50.001 Hz with FVI 0.0329 on 2025-11-23, versus 49.976 Hz and FVI 0.0870 on 2025-11-21.
Inference: Reduced dispersion (lower FVI) indicates smoother net balancing and fewer costly deviations into the tails.
Why it matters: Lower variability trims balancing costs and DSM exposure without relying on congestion relief.

6) Evening Tail Still Busy: 216 High-Side Excursions Logged on 2025-11-23
8On 2025-11-23, 216 excursions above 50.03 Hz and 175 below 49.97 Hz were recorded despite a benign daily average.
Inference: Even with calm means, tails remained active-signalling fast intra-hour imbalances that aren’t visible in averages.
Why it matters: Operators relying on hourly means risk under-hedging tail events that drive imbalance costs.

7) Reservoirs: Bhakra Level Sits Well Above Last Year
8Bhakra’s present reservoir level ~509.72 m versus 497.82 m on the same day last year (+~11.90 m) on 2025-11-20; Pong and Ranjit Sagar show similar year-on-year gains in the table.
Inference: Stronger storage positions expand hydro’s room for economically timed peaking through the week.
Why it matters: Healthier reservoirs hedge evening MCP risk and reduce ancillary procurement needs.

8) Thermal Forced Outages Cross ~40 GW on 2025-11-21
8CEA’s generation summary lists “FO (Forced Outage)” for thermal at ~40,387.01 MW on 2025-11-21, with total thermal on-line and net generation shown alongside.
Inference: Elevated FO tightens dispatchable capacity headroom, pushing more balancing onto exchanges and ancillary calls.
Why it matters: High FO inflates system balancing costs and can widen DAM-RTM basis during ramps.

Market Round-up

Nov 21: 1) RTM pre-dawn sell stacks overwhelm demand
8Sell bids averaged ~19.46 GW vs ~6.66 GW of purchase bids between 01:00–03:00 on 2025-11-20.
Inference: Oversupply in these blocks likely compressed RTM prints even without corridor binds; this aligns with unconstrained reliability proxies the same day.
Why it matters: Portfolio imbalances can be covered cheaply if orders are timed to the 01:00–03:00 liquidity window.

2) Zero buyer interest in early HPDAM blocks
8Hydro Day-Ahead Market showed 0.00 MW purchase bids across multiple pre-dawn blocks despite non-zero sell bids.
Inference: Buyers deferred flexibility procurement to other products/hours; hydro value went un-monetised during shoulder hours.
Why it matters: Missed hydro hedges can push more exposure into RTM peaks later, increasing cost risk.

3) Reliability proxies green: no (N-1)/ATC breaches observed
8System Reliability Indices list 0.00% violations and 100.00% compliance at representative nodes on 2025-11-20.
Inference: Day-ahead/real-time price dynamics were microstructure-driven, not transmission-constrained.
Why it matters: With corridors clear, trading strategy should emphasise timing/product mix rather than congestion premia.

4) SR TTC/ATC sheet shows no violations
8Southern Region TTC/ATC report flags 0 violations for the day.
Inference: SR inter-regional limits did not bind; any MCP dispersion likely came from bids/ramp rather than transfer caps.
Why it matters: Dispatchers can prioritise price-timing over contingency hedges when SR corridors are unconstrained.

5) Chronic 400 kV line outages point to structural topology work
8Multiple 400 kV elements remain on continuous outage since 2022–2024
Inference: Long-running LILO/commissioning modifications reduce redundancy and can elongate post-contingency recovery paths even on non-binding days.
Why it matters: Medium-term N-1 resilience hinges on restoring these elements; otherwise redispatch risk persists.

6) Gas peakers sidelined: NTPC-led GPS/CCPP units on continuous RSD/PPA issues
8A large cluster of gas-fired units (e.g., Dadri GPS 5–6, Auraiya 5–6, Anta 4) sits on Continuous planned outage (RSD / non-availability of PPA).
Inference: Evening-ramp flexibility is constrained by economics, not capability; states lean more on exchanges for short-cover.
Why it matters: Lower gas-flex raises peak MCP exposure unless covered via hydro/ancillary.

7) 765 kV buses kept voltages within band with healthy headroom
8Voltage Deviation Index for ER shows Ranchi New 765 kV max ≈ 793.17 kV, min ≈ 758.39 kV (time window listed as 00:00–24:00).
Inference: Tight VDI compliance alongside wide absolute kV range indicates effective reactive management without breaching thresholds.
Why it matters: Stable voltage at 765 kV hubs reduces tripping/penalties and supports reliable transfer capability.

8) SCUC merit stack shows wide ECR dispersion across coal stations
8NLDC SCUC table lists materially different ECR readings amongst large coal stations
Inference: A broader ECR spread widens merit-order gaps; small ramp errors can flip unit selections in contiguous blocks.
Why it matters: Portfolios with mixed PPAs should watch ECR-driven switching costs into the morning/evening ladders.

Market Round-up

Nov 20: 1) DAM’s sunrise ladder: MCP steps up sharply 06:00–08:00 IST
8MCP rose from ~Rs 2.94/kWh at Hour-06 to ~Rs 4.35/kWh by Hour-08 on 2025-11-19, while scheduled volume climbed in lock-step.
Inference: The price ladder aligns with a demand pick-up into morning ramp while bid stacks on the sell side tightened; no corridor constraints flagged the same day.
Why it matters: Early-morning procurement exposed portfolios to a ~Rs 1.41/kWh swing within 2 hours worth material re-timing of day-ahead nominations.

2) RTM pre-dawn prints stayed soft despite thick sell stacks
8Between 01:00–03:00 IST on 2025-11-19, RTM MCP hovered ~Rs 1.76–2.00/kWh even as sell bids repeatedly exceeded 20,000 MW and purchase bids held ~5,000–5,800 MW.
Inference: Persistent offer-side depth outpaced demand in the small hours, compressing block-level prices and allowing low-cost intraday balancing.
Why it matters: Night-time imbalances can be covered cheaply if bids are placed early and sized to the 01:00–03:00 liquidity window.

3) Hydro reservoirs run below FRL at Bhakra and Pong
8On 2025-11-18, Bhakra stood at 509.99 m vs FRL 513.59 m; Pong at 418.32 m vs FRL 426.72 m, with season-to-date generation tallies recorded in the same sheet.
Inference: Sub-FRL heads reduce evening peaking headroom and may cap price-damping potential from northern hydro in shoulder hours.
Why it matters: Lower hydraulic head limits flexibility just when morning and evening ramps need it most—raising reliance on thermal and exchanges.

4) No ATC or (N-1) breaches logged for 2025-11-19
8System Reliability Indices reported 0.00% violations across WR↔NR, ER↔NR, NEW↔SR and NER import for the day.
Inference: Day-ahead and real-time price moves were not transmission-constrained per the reported proxies; supply–demand microstructure drove prints.
Why it matters: With corridors clear, procurement strategy should lean on market timing and product mix rather than hedging for congestion premia.

5) Frequency tails were contained; average at 49.976 Hz
8On 2025-11-19, average frequency was 49.976 Hz; time outside 49.90–50.05 Hz totalled 5:35:20, with 210 excursions below 49.97 Hz and 140 above 50.03 Hz.
Inference: Tighter tails and mid-band clustering point to adequate reserves and disciplined scheduling through solar ramps.
Why it matters: Contained tails limit DSM exposure for states and reduce balancing overheads for portfolio managers.

6) HPDAM saw zero buyer interest across early blocks
8Hydro Day-Ahead Market recorded 0.00 MW purchase bids and 0.00 MW cleared volume across multiple pre-dawn blocks on 2025-11-19, despite steady sell bids (~2,839–2,984 MW).
Inference: Price discovery is being deferred to other products when hydro flexibility is offered, indicating a mismatch in demand timing or bid expectations.
Why it matters: Un-monetised hydro flexibility weakens a valuable hedge for peak-hour exposure and can push more load into RTM.

7) DSM venue inactive: PXIL cleared zero across all 96 blocks
8On 2025-11-19 delivery, PXIL DSM printed 0.00 MW cleared buy/sell and Rs 0.00/MWh price in every 15-minute block.
Inference: With DSM liquidity absent, balancing migrated to DAM/RTM and internal fleet actions concentrating execution risk in exchange products.
Why it matters: Fewer balancing avenues can steepen peak prints and worsen slippage for passive strategies.

8) Thermal fleet shows selective RSD/low schedules alongside forced outages
8The daily outage sheet lists multiple RSD/low-schedule entries (e.g., Dadri CCPP-1 at 130.19 MW flagged “CONSERVATION OF MAIN FUEL/RSD”) and boiler/auxiliary issues at other stations on 2025-11-18.
Inference: A mixed outage profile-economic (RSD) and technical-shifts a portion of balancing to exchanges during certain hours.
Why it matters: Portfolio buyers should factor plant-level RSD decisions into day-ahead sizing to avoid paying up in tight morning blocks.

Market Round-up

Nov 19: 1) DAM prices rebound into mid-week; volumes steady
8DAM weighted MCP rose from Rs 1.72/kWh on 2025-11-16 to Rs 3.04/kWh on 2025-11-18, while daily cleared volumes stayed near 183 GWh.
Inference: The rebound aligns with a firmer RTM week-average MCP (Rs 2.88/kWh) and stable MCV on RTM, pointing to tighter all-day liquidity across products.
Why it matters: A Rs 1.32/kWh swing inside three days materially shifts short-term procurement costs for state buyers and C&I portfolios.

2) RTM realisation at ~86% of bids over the week
8Between 2025-11-12 and 2025-11-18, RTM purchase bids averaged ~162,184 MWh/day versus MCV ~139,801 MWh/day (≈86% realisation), with daily MCP averaging Rs 2.88/kWh.
Inference: Bid-to-MCV compression alongside a rising DAM MCP suggests participants shifted some day-ahead risk into intraday while still facing clearing constraints.
Why it matters: Under-realisation raises execution risk for passive RTM strategies that chase MCP prints without monitoring intrablock depth.

3) HPDAM posts zero clearing across the reported week
8Hydro Day-Ahead Market (HPDAM) showed 0.00 MWh purchase bids and 0.00 MWh cleared volume on each day from 2025-11-12 to 2025-11-18, despite consistent sell-bid stacks (~116–125 GWh/day).
Inference: Absent buyer interest points to pricing/band-matching frictions rather than supply scarcity, as conventional DAM/RTM volumes were healthy.
Why it matters: Hydro flexibility went un-monetised in day-ahead auctions, dulling a tool that can hedge peak-hour exposure.

4) Frequency held near the centre with limited tails on 2025-11-18
8All-India average frequency was 49.993 Hz; time outside the 49.90–50.05 Hz band totalled 4:05:30, with 202 up-to-down excursions below 49.97 Hz and 179 above 50.03 Hz.
Inference: Tighter tails alongside mid-day over-frequency peaks hint at adequate reserves and disciplined scheduling during solar ramp periods.
Why it matters: Reduced time in the penalty bands curbs DSM exposure and stabilises imbalance costs for utilities.

5) PSP daily report: morning system peak exceeded evening peak, no shortage
8On 2025-11-18, maximum demand met reached 198,174 MW at 09:55 (IST), while evening-peak demand met was 185,524 MW at 19:00 with zero reported shortage.
Inference: High daytime solar (454 MU) and comfortable regional availability supported both peaks without curtailment of demand.
Why it matters: Morning-dominant peaks shift ramping obligations and reserve planning toward pre-noon blocks, altering ancillary needs and bilateral scheduling.

6) ER↔NR constraint surfaced briefly in reliability indices
8System Reliability Indices flagged ER–NR ATC violation for 2 blocks (≈0.50 hours; 2.08% of the day’s blocks) on 2025-11-18; other listed corridors showed 0% violations.
Inference: A short ER→NR constraint window likely tightened market depth in northern bids during those blocks, consistent with the mid-week MCP firming.
Why it matters: Even brief binds can transmit into price prints and congestion costs; tracking corridor-level flags helps time-slice procurement.

7) Hydro reservoirs below FRL at marquee northern projects
8On 2025-11-17, Bhakra stood at 509.99 m versus FRL 513.59 m, with cumulative generation from 1 April at 6,516.07 MU; Pong was at 418.43 m versus FRL 426.72 m.
Inference: Sub-FRL levels reduce effective energy head for evening smoothing, raising reliance on thermal/market purchases in shoulder hours.
Why it matters: Lower headroom can steepen MCP in tight blocks and limit hydro’s price-damping role.

8) PXIL DSM auction showed zero activity across all 96 blocks on 2025-11-18
8PXIL’s DSM report printed 0.00 MW cleared buy/sell and Rs 0.00/MWh price for each 15-minute block through the day.
Inference: With DSM liquidity absent in this window, participants depended on DAM/RTM for balancing, concentrating risk in those products.
Why it matters: A non-functional DSM venue narrows balancing options, potentially pushing more volume into peak-price blocks and raising costs.

Nov 18: TANGEDCO’s 6637-unit transformer tender tightens compliance while adding aggressive 25% quantity flexibility
8TANGEDCO has issued a major transformer procurement that keeps technical compliance rigid while inserting a powerful quantity-scaling mechanism. The option clause quietly alters supply-chain risk for every bidder. 
8The full impact emerges only once the delivery schedule and commercial exposure are examined in detail.

Nov 18: PGCIL hard-locks bidders into a conditional 50MW/200MWh BESS tie-up ahead of its Rajasthan TBCB challenge
8PGCIL wants a pre-selected contractor before it even knows whether it will win the state’s 2000MWh storage bid. 
8The bidder must accept exclusivity, confidentiality, and a delayed award that depends entirely on PGCIL’s own tariff-bid outcome. 
8The risk balance, however, is far from symmetrical.

PGCIL locks in seven-package BESS pre-bid grid across Aptransco and RVUNL
8PGCIL has triggered India’s largest multi-state storage procurement push with seven BESS packages tied to Aptransco and RVUNL. 
8Exclusive pre-bid tie-ups and NDA-driven access rules reshape how EPC players enter the storage market. 
8The real stakes lie in how divergent QR bars and undisclosed clauses redistribute risk behind the tariff wall.

Nov 18: REC issues non-material amendment even as RFP holds heavy interface and communication risks
8REC has re-issued the grid map annexure without altering a single parameter. The move signals administrative tightening rather than scope relief for bidders. 
8The deeper risks buried in the communication and site-interface clauses remain untouched.

REC’s two-week timeline shift resets the competitive landscape for the 400/132 kV AIS Jalna transmission package
8REC has pushed the Jalna bid window forward by two weeks, altering every downstream milestone. 
8The shift gives bidders more time to clean up consortium structures and technical submissions for a complex multi-corridor asset. 
8But the final pricing tension now hinges on how aggressively players recalibrate for the extended reverse-auction zone.

Details

Market Round-up

Nov 18: 1) RTM cleared volumes jumped despite softer bid stacks
8RTM on 2025-11-17 cleared 5.1–5.7 GWh across early blocks even as purchase bids halved against the prior day’s pattern.
Inference: Operators likely leaned on RTM to correct under-scheduling visible in block-level bid–MCV gaps.
The mismatch raises execution risk for passive buyers who track MCP but not intrablock liquidity.

2) Hydro reservoir levels lag last year at multiple sites
8Balimela’s 2025-11-15 reservoir stood at 1508.89 ft, below last year’s 1505.81–1508.97 ft range, with correspondingly lower available energy.
Inference: Week-on-week inflows appear weaker, suppressing effective energy content at present level versus FRL benchmarks.
Lower headroom limits late-evening hydro smoothing and may push states toward higher-priced short-term purchases.

3) Forced outages in Northern region crossed 10.6 GW
8On 2025-11-15, Northern Region units logged 10,656.68 MW under forced outage—over 39% of its total unavailable capacity that day.
Inference: Concentration of unplanned outages constrains redispatch flexibility and inflates balancing dependence in peak blocks.
High forced outages increase exposure to costly intraday procurement in Rs/kWh.

4) Voltage stability held at key 765-kV nodes despite wide swings
8Ranchi (NEW) and Angul 765 kV substations recorded 100% time within IEGC band on 2025-11-16, yet maximum voltages reached 791–784 kV.
Inference: Reactive support appears sufficient even when peaks drift near upper operational bounds.
Stable voltage at high-stress nodes reduces contingency risk and limits VAR-related penalties for states.

5) Hydro day-ahead market showed zero clearing for all early blocks
8HPDAM on 2025-11-17 reported 0.00 MW MCV and 0.00 MW scheduled volume from 00:00 to 01:45 despite large sell-bid stacks of ~2,849–2,889 MW.
Inference: Buyers stayed absent, likely due to mismatched hydro pricing bands or lack of block-matching with demand shapes.
Zero-volume clearing undermines revenue certainty for hydro stations seeking structured day-ahead monetisation.

6) Eastern Region hit 50.10 Hz during peak with zero shortage
8On 2025-11-17, evening-peak demand of 21,005 MW was fully met at 50.10 Hz, indicating comfortable reserves.
Inference: Adequate regional availability and disciplined scheduling kept peak frequency from dipping into corrective zones.
Stable frequency at peak limits the need for costly up-regulation and curbs DSM exposure.

7) HPX RTM remained structurally illiquid across six consecutive days
8From 2025-11-11 to 2025-11-16, HPX RTM logged 0.00 purchase bids, sell bids and cleared volumes across all reported snapshots.
Inference: Participants continue to route intraday trades to other exchanges, leaving HPX RTM without executable depth.
Illiquidity converts apparent MCP advantages into non-delivery risk, raising procurement uncertainty.

8) Western region carried the largest outage burden at nearly 27.7 GW
8On 2025-11-15, Western Region reported 27,748.90 MW under maintenance (planned + forced + others), exceeding even Northern Region by a wide margin.
Inference: Heavy maintenance windows combined with forced outages reduce headroom for inter-regional support flows.
High outage concentration can amplify price volatility and congestion risk on WR↔NR and WR↔SR corridors.

Substation ETC award tightens competition in Bikaner

Nov 17: 8RRVPN has closed the two-substation ETC package in Bikaner with a narrow 7–12% bidder spread. 
8The winner has set the cost benchmark for upcoming tender ahead. 
8What this pricing implies for the next wave of Rajasthan grid packages now becomes the key question. Details

Winner emerges in BHEL’s gravimetric-feeder package for Lara, Singrauli and Sipat

Nov 17: 8The pricing gap stayed tight, but BHEL’s zero-deviation discipline left bidders no room for design manoeuvre. 
8Both vendors cleared the technical bar, yet documentation rigour shaped the final edge. 
8The real implications lie in how this template will influence coal-handling packages due next quarter. Details

Tight-cluster bidding defines RVPN’s three-substation award under the 132 kV GSS package

Nov 17: 8Bidders stayed packed within a narrow three-percent band for RVPN’s three-substation construction award. 
8The tight pricing suggests predictable execution risk and aggressive market sentiment. 
8But the missing contractual details leave open the true extent of the risk loading. Details

Single-bidder outcome pushes JKSPDC’s consultancy tender into a high-scrutiny technical-evaluation zone

Nov 17: 8Technical evaluation has closed, but only one bidder made it through.

8Whether the single-bid dynamic shifts pricing and oversight will be the next test. Details

Market Round-up

Nov 26: 1) DAM–RTM price gap tightened through 19–25 Nov
8Day-ahead weighted MCP ranged Rs 2,868.87–3,301.42/MWh; RTM sat mostly Rs 3,241.93–4,019.99/MWh.
Inference: Narrower daily gaps on 23–25 Nov align with softer DAM (23 Nov) and a mid-range RTM band (23–25 Nov) across exchanges.
Why it matters: Smaller basis between D-1 and intraday reduces procurement risk for portfolios leaning on RTM top-ups.

2) PXIL printed a flat Rs 10,000/MWh across RTM days
8PXIL’s RTM weighted MCP shows Rs 10,000/MWh on 19, 20, 21, 22, 24 and 25-11-2025.
Inference: A fixed-price print with modest scheduled volumes suggests limited depth and competitive tension in this window.
Why it matters: Participants relying on PXIL RTM face all-or-nothing fills at a single price point, complicating cost control.

3) HPX RTM saw near-zero participation over the week
8HPX RTM shows no cleared volume and “0.00” MCP across 19–25-11-2025, with only token purchase bids.
Inference: Sparse order book depth likely inhibited price discovery, keeping the platform sidelined for RTM procurement.
Why it matters: Liquidity fragmentation raises execution risk; portfolios must diversify to avoid missed balancing windows.

4) Frequency held 49.995 Hz mean but showed wide tails
8On 25-11-2025, average frequency was 49.995 Hz; max 50.247 Hz at 06:02, min 49.811 Hz at 17:26:30.
Inference: Morning headroom and evening tightness are consistent with daily load shape, even with a near-50.00 mean.
Why it matters: Wider tails raise imbalance exposure for DSM-sensitive entities despite a benign daily average.

5) Zero corridor ATC violations reported on 25 Nov
8System Reliability Indices list 0 blocks violated for WR–NR, ER–NR, NEW–SR and other headline corridors.
Inference: Unconstrained inter-regional limits reduced forced redispatch risk during the day’s 96 blocks.
Why it matters: Stable transfer capability supports tighter market spreads and cleaner schedule adherence.

6) Southern Region hit forecast close-outs with no peak shortage
8SR’s daily report shows evening-peak demand met at 48,437 MW with frequency 50.09 Hz; Karnataka’s LGBR deviation was −2.76 MU.
Inference: Tight forecast discipline and adequate supply at peak kept deviations in check.
Why it matters: Better forecast accuracy lowers balancing costs and curbs UI/DSM exposure at state peripheries.

7) Coal stock dispersion: Kota above norm, Suratgarh low
8Kota TPS carried 18.2 days (104% of norm) vs Suratgarh entries at 42%–72% of norm on 24-11-2025.
Inference: Divergent inventory cushions imply uneven outage and procurement risk if rail flows tighten.
Why it matters: Plants below normative buffers face higher spot-fuel or interchange dependence during ramps.

8) Voltage discipline was broad, with few mild deviations
8Nodes like Agra, Anta, Bhadla held 100.00% in-band; Ajmer registered 2.85% over-voltage time on 25-11-2025.
Inference: Local reactive support and tap settings kept most 765-kV/400-kV buses compliant, with isolated excursions.
Why it matters: Better VDI cuts VAR intervention costs and stabilises corridor performance.

Market Round-up

Nov 25: 1) Average frequency steady at 50.03 Hz on 2025-11-24
8All-India average frequency printed 50.03 Hz across the day (T1–T96).
Inference: A benign mean aligns with an absence of large disturbance flags in the day’s top-level reliability set.
Why it matters: A stable 50 Hz anchor lowers inadvertent interchange risk and compresses balancing costs.

2) TTC/ATC sheet shows six “Violated” flags on 2025-11-24
8The daily TTC/ATC report lists six instances of “Violated” across four numbered entries for the day.
Inference: Repeated flags on a handful of corridors point to persistent checks on the same constraints rather than a system-wide bind.
Why it matters: Concentrated constraints can still raise redispatch and congestion management costs over affected blocks.

3) Planned unit outages far outnumber forced: 78 vs 18 (2025-11-24)
8Generating Unit Outage Report shows 78 planned versus 18 forced outages on the day.
Inference: Maintenance windows dominated tripping events, supporting more predictable reserve scheduling.
Why it matters: Planned-heavy mixes typically temper ancillary exposure and reduce volatility across evening peaks.

4) Transmission elements: “C” (continuous) edges “D” (daily) 111 vs 110
8The Transmission Element Report’s daily/continuous field tallies “C”=111 and “D”=110 entries on 2025-11-24.
Inference: A slight tilt toward continuous conditions implies multi-block transfer headroom impacts.
Why it matters: Even marginally higher continuous constraints can propagate price separation risk across multiple 15-minute blocks.

5) Ranchi New 765 kV held 100.00% within voltage band (2025-11-23)
8The ER VDI table lists “RANCHI NEW 765kV” at 100.00% time within the permitted voltage band for the day.
Inference: Node-level voltage discipline at 765 kV suggests adequate reactive support and tap settings through shoulder hours.
Why it matters: Strong bus-level compliance cuts VAR interventions and reduces under/over-voltage penalty exposure.

6) SCUC economics: ECRs clustered ~272.5–302.9 paise/kWh in top rows (D-1)
8The D-1 SCUC table shows examples: NPGC ECR 272.5 paise/kWh (blocks 49–62); Mauda units at ~291.7–297.9 paise/kWh; MTPS-2 at ~300.2 paise/kWh; Telangana STPP at ~302.9 paise/kWh.
Inference: Tight ECR clustering implies a relatively flat marginal stack for coal across core SCUC-eligible blocks.
Why it matters: Flat ECR bands compress clearing price dispersion when ATC is non-binding, stabilising MCP in contiguous blocks.

7) All-India thermal fell short of program: 3,397.68 MU vs 3,800.32 MU (-15.21%)
8CEA’s daily generation table for 2025-11-21 records “ALL INDIA THERMAL” today’s actual at 3,397.68 MU against a program of 3,800.32 MU (-15.21%).
Inference: A program-actual gap of this size likely tightened reserve margins intra-day (without implying causation).
Why it matters: Material shortfalls elevate balancing needs and can widen MCP tails if coincident with corridor constraints.

8) Anta node shows 100.00% compliance in reliability indices snapshot (2025-11-24)
8System Reliability Indices list “Anta” with 0.00% outside and 100.00% within the specified voltage band on the day.
Inference: Node-level compliance here indicates local voltage kept inside target limits across all blocks.
Why it matters: Persistent in-band operation reduces VAR support costs and curbs stress on adjacent corridors.

Market Round-up

Nov 24: 1) DAM–RTM Basis Widens on 2025-11-23 Evening
8Weighted MCP in RTM was ~Rs 3,241.93/MWh versus DAM ~Rs 2,868.87/MWh on 2025-11-23, widening the same-day basis by ~Rs 373/MWh in evening blocks.
Inference: With no documented corridor binds that day, the premium likely reflected intraday scarcity rather than transfer limits (cross-check reliability files).
Why it matters: Portfolios exposed to RTM peaks faced ~Rs 0.37/kWh higher energy cost against pre-positioned DAM volumes.

2) Three-Day HPDAM Offer Stack Went Unused
8Across 2025-11-21 to 2025-11-23, HPDAM carried 876,162.60 MWh of sell bids and 0.00 MWh purchase bids or cleared volume.
Inference: Buyers deferred flexible hydro cover to other products or hours, leaving offered peaking flexibility un-monetised.
Why it matters: Unused hydro flexibility re-surfaces as higher volatility and cost in RTM peaks.

3) HPX “ASDAM” Stayed Dormant All Week
8HPX’s ASDAM product shows zero transaction activity across 17-11-2025 to 23-11-2025 (bids, clears, MCP all 0).
Inference: Thin liquidity in this lane pushes flexibility procurement into DAM/RTM, concentrating price risk elsewhere.
Why it matters: Market depth fragmentation raises execution risk for portfolios counting on product diversity for hedging.

4) 117 Transmission Elements on Continuous Outage; 400 kV Dominates
8Between 2025-11-21 and 2025-11-23, 117 elements are flagged “Continuous” outages; 400 kV accounts for 64 of them (vs 28 at 220 kV).
Inference: Extended topology reductions at 400 kV erode redundancy even on non-binding days, lengthening post-contingency recovery paths.
Why it matters: Medium-term resilience and redispatch costs hinge on clearing these continuous outages.

5) Frequency Variability Halved by 2025-11-23
8Average frequency steadied at 50.001 Hz with FVI 0.0329 on 2025-11-23, versus 49.976 Hz and FVI 0.0870 on 2025-11-21.
Inference: Reduced dispersion (lower FVI) indicates smoother net balancing and fewer costly deviations into the tails.
Why it matters: Lower variability trims balancing costs and DSM exposure without relying on congestion relief.

6) Evening Tail Still Busy: 216 High-Side Excursions Logged on 2025-11-23
8On 2025-11-23, 216 excursions above 50.03 Hz and 175 below 49.97 Hz were recorded despite a benign daily average.
Inference: Even with calm means, tails remained active-signalling fast intra-hour imbalances that aren’t visible in averages.
Why it matters: Operators relying on hourly means risk under-hedging tail events that drive imbalance costs.

7) Reservoirs: Bhakra Level Sits Well Above Last Year
8Bhakra’s present reservoir level ~509.72 m versus 497.82 m on the same day last year (+~11.90 m) on 2025-11-20; Pong and Ranjit Sagar show similar year-on-year gains in the table.
Inference: Stronger storage positions expand hydro’s room for economically timed peaking through the week.
Why it matters: Healthier reservoirs hedge evening MCP risk and reduce ancillary procurement needs.

8) Thermal Forced Outages Cross ~40 GW on 2025-11-21
8CEA’s generation summary lists “FO (Forced Outage)” for thermal at ~40,387.01 MW on 2025-11-21, with total thermal on-line and net generation shown alongside.
Inference: Elevated FO tightens dispatchable capacity headroom, pushing more balancing onto exchanges and ancillary calls.
Why it matters: High FO inflates system balancing costs and can widen DAM-RTM basis during ramps.

Market Round-up

Nov 21: 1) RTM pre-dawn sell stacks overwhelm demand
8Sell bids averaged ~19.46 GW vs ~6.66 GW of purchase bids between 01:00–03:00 on 2025-11-20.
Inference: Oversupply in these blocks likely compressed RTM prints even without corridor binds; this aligns with unconstrained reliability proxies the same day.
Why it matters: Portfolio imbalances can be covered cheaply if orders are timed to the 01:00–03:00 liquidity window.

2) Zero buyer interest in early HPDAM blocks
8Hydro Day-Ahead Market showed 0.00 MW purchase bids across multiple pre-dawn blocks despite non-zero sell bids.
Inference: Buyers deferred flexibility procurement to other products/hours; hydro value went un-monetised during shoulder hours.
Why it matters: Missed hydro hedges can push more exposure into RTM peaks later, increasing cost risk.

3) Reliability proxies green: no (N-1)/ATC breaches observed
8System Reliability Indices list 0.00% violations and 100.00% compliance at representative nodes on 2025-11-20.
Inference: Day-ahead/real-time price dynamics were microstructure-driven, not transmission-constrained.
Why it matters: With corridors clear, trading strategy should emphasise timing/product mix rather than congestion premia.

4) SR TTC/ATC sheet shows no violations
8Southern Region TTC/ATC report flags 0 violations for the day.
Inference: SR inter-regional limits did not bind; any MCP dispersion likely came from bids/ramp rather than transfer caps.
Why it matters: Dispatchers can prioritise price-timing over contingency hedges when SR corridors are unconstrained.

5) Chronic 400 kV line outages point to structural topology work
8Multiple 400 kV elements remain on continuous outage since 2022–2024
Inference: Long-running LILO/commissioning modifications reduce redundancy and can elongate post-contingency recovery paths even on non-binding days.
Why it matters: Medium-term N-1 resilience hinges on restoring these elements; otherwise redispatch risk persists.

6) Gas peakers sidelined: NTPC-led GPS/CCPP units on continuous RSD/PPA issues
8A large cluster of gas-fired units (e.g., Dadri GPS 5–6, Auraiya 5–6, Anta 4) sits on Continuous planned outage (RSD / non-availability of PPA).
Inference: Evening-ramp flexibility is constrained by economics, not capability; states lean more on exchanges for short-cover.
Why it matters: Lower gas-flex raises peak MCP exposure unless covered via hydro/ancillary.

7) 765 kV buses kept voltages within band with healthy headroom
8Voltage Deviation Index for ER shows Ranchi New 765 kV max ≈ 793.17 kV, min ≈ 758.39 kV (time window listed as 00:00–24:00).
Inference: Tight VDI compliance alongside wide absolute kV range indicates effective reactive management without breaching thresholds.
Why it matters: Stable voltage at 765 kV hubs reduces tripping/penalties and supports reliable transfer capability.

8) SCUC merit stack shows wide ECR dispersion across coal stations
8NLDC SCUC table lists materially different ECR readings amongst large coal stations
Inference: A broader ECR spread widens merit-order gaps; small ramp errors can flip unit selections in contiguous blocks.
Why it matters: Portfolios with mixed PPAs should watch ECR-driven switching costs into the morning/evening ladders.

Market Round-up

Nov 20: 1) DAM’s sunrise ladder: MCP steps up sharply 06:00–08:00 IST
8MCP rose from ~Rs 2.94/kWh at Hour-06 to ~Rs 4.35/kWh by Hour-08 on 2025-11-19, while scheduled volume climbed in lock-step.
Inference: The price ladder aligns with a demand pick-up into morning ramp while bid stacks on the sell side tightened; no corridor constraints flagged the same day.
Why it matters: Early-morning procurement exposed portfolios to a ~Rs 1.41/kWh swing within 2 hours worth material re-timing of day-ahead nominations.

2) RTM pre-dawn prints stayed soft despite thick sell stacks
8Between 01:00–03:00 IST on 2025-11-19, RTM MCP hovered ~Rs 1.76–2.00/kWh even as sell bids repeatedly exceeded 20,000 MW and purchase bids held ~5,000–5,800 MW.
Inference: Persistent offer-side depth outpaced demand in the small hours, compressing block-level prices and allowing low-cost intraday balancing.
Why it matters: Night-time imbalances can be covered cheaply if bids are placed early and sized to the 01:00–03:00 liquidity window.

3) Hydro reservoirs run below FRL at Bhakra and Pong
8On 2025-11-18, Bhakra stood at 509.99 m vs FRL 513.59 m; Pong at 418.32 m vs FRL 426.72 m, with season-to-date generation tallies recorded in the same sheet.
Inference: Sub-FRL heads reduce evening peaking headroom and may cap price-damping potential from northern hydro in shoulder hours.
Why it matters: Lower hydraulic head limits flexibility just when morning and evening ramps need it most—raising reliance on thermal and exchanges.

4) No ATC or (N-1) breaches logged for 2025-11-19
8System Reliability Indices reported 0.00% violations across WR↔NR, ER↔NR, NEW↔SR and NER import for the day.
Inference: Day-ahead and real-time price moves were not transmission-constrained per the reported proxies; supply–demand microstructure drove prints.
Why it matters: With corridors clear, procurement strategy should lean on market timing and product mix rather than hedging for congestion premia.

5) Frequency tails were contained; average at 49.976 Hz
8On 2025-11-19, average frequency was 49.976 Hz; time outside 49.90–50.05 Hz totalled 5:35:20, with 210 excursions below 49.97 Hz and 140 above 50.03 Hz.
Inference: Tighter tails and mid-band clustering point to adequate reserves and disciplined scheduling through solar ramps.
Why it matters: Contained tails limit DSM exposure for states and reduce balancing overheads for portfolio managers.

6) HPDAM saw zero buyer interest across early blocks
8Hydro Day-Ahead Market recorded 0.00 MW purchase bids and 0.00 MW cleared volume across multiple pre-dawn blocks on 2025-11-19, despite steady sell bids (~2,839–2,984 MW).
Inference: Price discovery is being deferred to other products when hydro flexibility is offered, indicating a mismatch in demand timing or bid expectations.
Why it matters: Un-monetised hydro flexibility weakens a valuable hedge for peak-hour exposure and can push more load into RTM.

7) DSM venue inactive: PXIL cleared zero across all 96 blocks
8On 2025-11-19 delivery, PXIL DSM printed 0.00 MW cleared buy/sell and Rs 0.00/MWh price in every 15-minute block.
Inference: With DSM liquidity absent, balancing migrated to DAM/RTM and internal fleet actions concentrating execution risk in exchange products.
Why it matters: Fewer balancing avenues can steepen peak prints and worsen slippage for passive strategies.

8) Thermal fleet shows selective RSD/low schedules alongside forced outages
8The daily outage sheet lists multiple RSD/low-schedule entries (e.g., Dadri CCPP-1 at 130.19 MW flagged “CONSERVATION OF MAIN FUEL/RSD”) and boiler/auxiliary issues at other stations on 2025-11-18.
Inference: A mixed outage profile-economic (RSD) and technical-shifts a portion of balancing to exchanges during certain hours.
Why it matters: Portfolio buyers should factor plant-level RSD decisions into day-ahead sizing to avoid paying up in tight morning blocks.

Market Round-up

Nov 19: 1) DAM prices rebound into mid-week; volumes steady
8DAM weighted MCP rose from Rs 1.72/kWh on 2025-11-16 to Rs 3.04/kWh on 2025-11-18, while daily cleared volumes stayed near 183 GWh.
Inference: The rebound aligns with a firmer RTM week-average MCP (Rs 2.88/kWh) and stable MCV on RTM, pointing to tighter all-day liquidity across products.
Why it matters: A Rs 1.32/kWh swing inside three days materially shifts short-term procurement costs for state buyers and C&I portfolios.

2) RTM realisation at ~86% of bids over the week
8Between 2025-11-12 and 2025-11-18, RTM purchase bids averaged ~162,184 MWh/day versus MCV ~139,801 MWh/day (≈86% realisation), with daily MCP averaging Rs 2.88/kWh.
Inference: Bid-to-MCV compression alongside a rising DAM MCP suggests participants shifted some day-ahead risk into intraday while still facing clearing constraints.
Why it matters: Under-realisation raises execution risk for passive RTM strategies that chase MCP prints without monitoring intrablock depth.

3) HPDAM posts zero clearing across the reported week
8Hydro Day-Ahead Market (HPDAM) showed 0.00 MWh purchase bids and 0.00 MWh cleared volume on each day from 2025-11-12 to 2025-11-18, despite consistent sell-bid stacks (~116–125 GWh/day).
Inference: Absent buyer interest points to pricing/band-matching frictions rather than supply scarcity, as conventional DAM/RTM volumes were healthy.
Why it matters: Hydro flexibility went un-monetised in day-ahead auctions, dulling a tool that can hedge peak-hour exposure.

4) Frequency held near the centre with limited tails on 2025-11-18
8All-India average frequency was 49.993 Hz; time outside the 49.90–50.05 Hz band totalled 4:05:30, with 202 up-to-down excursions below 49.97 Hz and 179 above 50.03 Hz.
Inference: Tighter tails alongside mid-day over-frequency peaks hint at adequate reserves and disciplined scheduling during solar ramp periods.
Why it matters: Reduced time in the penalty bands curbs DSM exposure and stabilises imbalance costs for utilities.

5) PSP daily report: morning system peak exceeded evening peak, no shortage
8On 2025-11-18, maximum demand met reached 198,174 MW at 09:55 (IST), while evening-peak demand met was 185,524 MW at 19:00 with zero reported shortage.
Inference: High daytime solar (454 MU) and comfortable regional availability supported both peaks without curtailment of demand.
Why it matters: Morning-dominant peaks shift ramping obligations and reserve planning toward pre-noon blocks, altering ancillary needs and bilateral scheduling.

6) ER↔NR constraint surfaced briefly in reliability indices
8System Reliability Indices flagged ER–NR ATC violation for 2 blocks (≈0.50 hours; 2.08% of the day’s blocks) on 2025-11-18; other listed corridors showed 0% violations.
Inference: A short ER→NR constraint window likely tightened market depth in northern bids during those blocks, consistent with the mid-week MCP firming.
Why it matters: Even brief binds can transmit into price prints and congestion costs; tracking corridor-level flags helps time-slice procurement.

7) Hydro reservoirs below FRL at marquee northern projects
8On 2025-11-17, Bhakra stood at 509.99 m versus FRL 513.59 m, with cumulative generation from 1 April at 6,516.07 MU; Pong was at 418.43 m versus FRL 426.72 m.
Inference: Sub-FRL levels reduce effective energy head for evening smoothing, raising reliance on thermal/market purchases in shoulder hours.
Why it matters: Lower headroom can steepen MCP in tight blocks and limit hydro’s price-damping role.

8) PXIL DSM auction showed zero activity across all 96 blocks on 2025-11-18
8PXIL’s DSM report printed 0.00 MW cleared buy/sell and Rs 0.00/MWh price for each 15-minute block through the day.
Inference: With DSM liquidity absent in this window, participants depended on DAM/RTM for balancing, concentrating risk in those products.
Why it matters: A non-functional DSM venue narrows balancing options, potentially pushing more volume into peak-price blocks and raising costs.

8REC has pushed the Jalna bid window forward by two weeks, altering every downstream milestone. 
8The shift gives bidders more time to clean up consortium structures and technical submissions for a complex multi-corridor asset. 
8But the final pricing tension now hinges on how aggressively players recalibrate for the extended reverse-auction zone.

Market Round-up

Nov 18: 1) RTM cleared volumes jumped despite softer bid stacks
8RTM on 2025-11-17 cleared 5.1–5.7 GWh across early blocks even as purchase bids halved against the prior day’s pattern.
Inference: Operators likely leaned on RTM to correct under-scheduling visible in block-level bid–MCV gaps.
The mismatch raises execution risk for passive buyers who track MCP but not intrablock liquidity.

2) Hydro reservoir levels lag last year at multiple sites
8Balimela’s 2025-11-15 reservoir stood at 1508.89 ft, below last year’s 1505.81–1508.97 ft range, with correspondingly lower available energy.
Inference: Week-on-week inflows appear weaker, suppressing effective energy content at present level versus FRL benchmarks.
Lower headroom limits late-evening hydro smoothing and may push states toward higher-priced short-term purchases.

3) Forced outages in Northern region crossed 10.6 GW
8On 2025-11-15, Northern Region units logged 10,656.68 MW under forced outage—over 39% of its total unavailable capacity that day.
Inference: Concentration of unplanned outages constrains redispatch flexibility and inflates balancing dependence in peak blocks.
High forced outages increase exposure to costly intraday procurement in Rs/kWh.

4) Voltage stability held at key 765-kV nodes despite wide swings
8Ranchi (NEW) and Angul 765 kV substations recorded 100% time within IEGC band on 2025-11-16, yet maximum voltages reached 791–784 kV.
Inference: Reactive support appears sufficient even when peaks drift near upper operational bounds.
Stable voltage at high-stress nodes reduces contingency risk and limits VAR-related penalties for states.

5) Hydro day-ahead market showed zero clearing for all early blocks
8HPDAM on 2025-11-17 reported 0.00 MW MCV and 0.00 MW scheduled volume from 00:00 to 01:45 despite large sell-bid stacks of ~2,849–2,889 MW.
Inference: Buyers stayed absent, likely due to mismatched hydro pricing bands or lack of block-matching with demand shapes.
Zero-volume clearing undermines revenue certainty for hydro stations seeking structured day-ahead monetisation.

6) Eastern Region hit 50.10 Hz during peak with zero shortage
8On 2025-11-17, evening-peak demand of 21,005 MW was fully met at 50.10 Hz, indicating comfortable reserves.
Inference: Adequate regional availability and disciplined scheduling kept peak frequency from dipping into corrective zones.
Stable frequency at peak limits the need for costly up-regulation and curbs DSM exposure.

7) HPX RTM remained structurally illiquid across six consecutive days
8From 2025-11-11 to 2025-11-16, HPX RTM logged 0.00 purchase bids, sell bids and cleared volumes across all reported snapshots.
Inference: Participants continue to route intraday trades to other exchanges, leaving HPX RTM without executable depth.
Illiquidity converts apparent MCP advantages into non-delivery risk, raising procurement uncertainty.

8) Western region carried the largest outage burden at nearly 27.7 GW
8On 2025-11-15, Western Region reported 27,748.90 MW under maintenance (planned + forced + others), exceeding even Northern Region by a wide margin.
Inference: Heavy maintenance windows combined with forced outages reduce headroom for inter-regional support flows.
High outage concentration can amplify price volatility and congestion risk on WR↔NR and WR↔SR corridors.
