Ministry of Coal Updates
Feb 10:
1) India’s coal stripping ratio stabilises as public miners deepen excavation intensity
8Fresh company-level data shows public sector miners driving most of the rise in excavation depth, while private producers report a sharp reduction in stripping pressure.
2) Captive coal miners emerge as fastest-growing supply segment
8Their output has multiplied several times, outpacing growth from established public sector miners.
3) Coal growth deceleration suggests shift from expansion to consolidation
8The drop from double-digit growth to under 5% indicates a transition phase as the billion tonne benchmark is crossed. The industry may now be focusing on efficiency rather than rapid volume expansion.
4) Washed coal output rises despite sharp multi-year yield erosion
8Raw coal feed has climbed sharply, but yield has dropped from above 50 percent to the low-30 percent range before a partial recovery. This indicates that higher input volumes, rather than process gains, are driving output growth.
5) India’s coal growth story is now almost entirely opencast-driven
8Underground mining, once seen as a strategic long-term reserve builder, has shrunk both in volume and share.

Power Committee Updates
Feb 10:
1) When a LILO breaks a nuclear assumption in India
8The Vapi LILO didn’t just reroute power - it invalidated a regulator-approved nuclear islanding scheme. NPCIL’s admission that KAPS-1&2 cannot island as designed is unusually candid and it exposes how fragile protection assumptions can be in a dynamically reconfigured grid.
2) WR’s Power Ancillary Economy Split Wide Open: SCUC pays out big, while coal fleets bleed in TRAS shortfall
8The structural tension is clear: reliability actions (SCUC) are creating concentrated payouts, while “discipline” actions (shortfall settlements) spread pain, and the same names keep surfacing across mechanisms-hinting at persistent behavioural and technical regimes rather than one-off volatility.
3) North Grid’s March risk isn’t “one big outage” - it’s the quiet stacking of hydro unit maintenance with late-month 765 kV corridor work
8The commercial lever is straightforward: when outages pile up, the value moves from “energy” to availability + corridor headroom-the week rewards whoever can stay online and flexible when everyone else is scheduled off.

Market Round-up
Feb 10:
1) DAM clears at a premium to RTM as Monday demand rebounds
8DAM MCP jumped to Rs 3.20/kWh on 2026-02-09 while RTM was lower at Rs 3.06/kWh.
Inference: RTM softened because real-time balancing load was absorbed through system ramp (thermal + hydro) and net exports, even as day-ahead demand expectations lifted DAM bids.
Why it matters: a Rs 0.15/kWh DAM–RTM basis can reward day-ahead hedging and penalise late procurement.
2) A 07:15 frequency cliff hits during the morning demand surge
8All-India frequency fell from 50.07 Hz (07:00) to 49.83 Hz (07:15) as demand rose above 213 GW.
Inference: the drop lines up with a fast demand pickup while thermal and hydro were still catching up, before the next block’s stabilisation.
Why it matters: sharp frequency steps in the morning ramp signal tighter primary/secondary response needs outside the classic evening peak.
3) Wind drops precede weaker frequency, with a 1.5–2 hour lag signal
8Wind output slid ahead of a weaker frequency patch, with the strongest lagged link around 6–8 blocks.
Inference: using the 96-block SCADA table, frequency shows a negative correlation with wind at lag 7 blocks (|ρ|≈0.36), suggesting wind easing is followed by frequency softness later.
Why it matters: this is an early-warning handle for reserve scheduling when morning wind fades ahead of the demand ramp.
4) Ancillary dispatch skews heavily to down-regulation, signalling surplus management stress
8On 2026-02-09, TRAS down energy was -29,815 MWh versus only 4,903 MWh up; SRAS down was -8,510 MWh versus 5,521 MWh up.
Inference: the system spent more effort absorbing surplus (down) than sourcing shortage (up), consistent with high daytime solar and midday balancing.
Why it matters: persistent down-dispatch raises cycling risk and compensation questions for flexible fleets.
5) 400 kV planned outages cluster on a single day, concentrated in a few owners
855 transmission elements show outage start on 2026-02-09, dominated by 400 kV equipment (39 of 55) and led by one owner’s assets (21 entries).
Inference: this density of same-day high-voltage work compresses operational headroom and increases reliance on real-time balancing tools.
Why it matters: clustered outages heighten the probability of local constraints and redispatch costs even if inter-regional corridors look clean.
6) A major hydro-storage cluster reports unit unavailability at both ends of the day
8Two 250 MW hydro-storage units in Uttarakhand show outages logged at 00:24 and again near 19:44 on 2026-02-09.
Inference: flexibility loss around the evening peak window can shift burden to thermal ramping and ancillary reserves.
Why it matters: storage/hydro outages during peak hours can amplify price volatility and frequency excursions without showing up as “shortage.”
7) Zero reported peak shortage coexists with large state-level deviation balances
8Multiple states show zero peak shortage, yet large net underdrawals/overdrawals: Maharashtra -7.4 MU, Rajasthan -5.3 MU, Gujarat -3.3 MU on 2026-02-09.
Inference: “no shortage” at the reporting layer can still hide aggressive schedule management and balancing reliance at the state boundary.
Why it matters: deviation exposure can build even on “normal” days, shaping DSM risk and procurement behaviour.
8) Coal stock looks comfortable in aggregate, but the signal is blunt for risk spotting
8Linked plants’ aggregate coal stock is shown at 48,270.7 (‘000 tonnes) against a daily requirement of 2,120.95 (‘000 tonnes), implying ~23 days of cover as on 2026-02-08.
Inference: the headline “days” number can mask stressed pockets because it aggregates across regions and plants.
Why it matters: relying on the national average can delay recognition of local scarcity that later shows up as outages, import dependence, or higher balancing costs.

Miscellaneous Update: Part I
Feb 10:
1) Rajasthan transmission utility defends Rs 1,800-crore asset additions amid cost scrutiny
8The case also signals tighter regulatory attention on hedging practices, cost overrun accountability and replacement capitalisation.
2) Dual power supply option opened for HT consumers with double fixed cost impact
8The amendment signals a regulatory tilt toward cost-reflective reliability provisioning rather than cross-subsidized redundancy.
3) HVPNL invokes no-work-no-wages rule ahead of nationwide power-sector strike
8The order signals that grid operations, especially at substations, are being treated as a continuity priority amid labour unrest.
4) Gujarat holds FPPAS steady at Rs.2.30/unit for second straight quarter
8The absence of revision indicates no recognised surge in fuel or power purchase costs (R7). This stabilizes billing predictability for non-agriculture consumers.
5) FPPA requirement drops nearly 70 percent in one quarter in Gujarat
8This represents a 4.25 percentage point reduction. The decline corresponds with lower APC and reduced variable cost (R2). Consumers face sharply reduced tariff adjustment pressure.
6) Renukaji dam land cases move into argument and order stages
8The latest cause list shows a transition from admission and reply filings toward arguments and even orders in select cases.

CERC vs. Powergrid-I: There are many fault lines
Feb 09:
1) Regulator reopens capitalisation claims from previous tariff block for solar transmission case
8Past approvals are not being treated as automatic precedents.
2) Regulator demands proof behind transmission cost escalation
8CERC has formally acknowledged that the Eastern Region Expansion Scheme project experienced cost overrun and has asked the utility to clarify whether revised cost approval is underway.
3) CERC tightens scrutiny on PGCIL solar interconnection transmission tariff claim
8Time overrun explanations and potential liquidated damages adjustments have become central risk variables.
4) Regulator demands loan-level interest proof for tariff approval
8CERC has asked Powergrid to disclose exact floating interest rates sourced from its loan compendium.
5) Regulator seeks appeal status of Tehri PSP before clearing transmission cost claims
8The regulatory rationale for linking appeal status to tariff approval is not explicitly stated.
6) CERC intensifies cost and delay scrutiny on Rajasthan REZ transmission project
8The broader signal points to a tightening regulatory stance on renewable transmission infrastructure cost validation.
7) CERC tightens scrutiny on Powergrid tariff claims for eastern split-bus assets
8The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission has escalated data scrutiny in Powergrid’s transmission tariff filing covering both the 2019–24 truing-up cycle and the 2024–29 control period.
8) Regulator questions capital cost trail for seven PowerGrid telecom transmission assets
8The scrutiny spans both the 2019-24 and 2024-29 tariff periods and beneficiaries may face tariff uncertainty if cost recognition is delayed.
9) Regulator demands loan computation transparency from Powergrid NE transmission tariffs
8The directive raises the compliance bar for tariff filings as transmission financiers and auditors are indirect stakeholders.
10) Regulator demands ACE breakdown before tariff approval moves ahead for Powergrid OPGW tariff petition
8Transmission licensees now face tighter validation on post-commissioning expenditure and financial closure for minor communication assets may slow.
11) CERC flags cost, delay, and financing gaps in Nalagarh ICT tariff case
8Revised capital cost, interest during construction, and liability schedules have been placed under direct scrutiny.
12) CERC flags delay scrutiny in solar-linked transmission tariff case
8Power Grid has been asked to justify time overruns and provide detailed financing cost disclosures before tariff determination proceeds.
13) CERC halts tariff scrutiny pending cost, IDC and delay disclosures in this interstate transmission project
8The directive targets assets linked to renewable generator connectivity at Bikaner-II, a node central to Rajasthan’s green power evacuation corridor.
14) CERC flags cost escalation risks in Powergrid’s North East communication tariff petition
8Beneficiaries and regional utilities could face delayed tariff certainty if responses are deemed insufficient.
15) Regulator demands loan-wise interest workings for Northern Region fibre-optic strengthening scheme
8This shifts scrutiny directly onto financing assumptions underlying capital cost recovery.
16) CERC flags cost overrun in Powergrid’s Hosur ICT tariff petition

Company Updates
Feb 09:
Siemens Limited’s Smart Infrastructure segment drove results while Mobility margins stayed thin.
8That means Siemens’ profitability is increasingly concentrated in Smart Infrastructure rather than broadly distributed across divisions. Click on Details for more.
Azad India Mobility Limited’s quarterly sales rebound still sits far below last year’s base.
8If the company cannot re-expand toward that earlier revenue level, profitability improvements risk becoming a low-base optical effect rather than a durable operating reset.
CESC: Generation falls 4% while power purchase rises, shifting the profit mix away from owned supply.
8This means more of the unit economics may be coming from bought power rather than owned generation, which can alter margin stability depending on procurement terms and regulatory pass-through.
GMR Power and Urban Infra’s GKEL fair value depends on dispute settlements and expansion assumptions, not disclosed performance proof".
8That means a meaningful portion of “value” is effectively a bet on claim resolution and operational ramp-up, which are both execution- and adjudication-dependent.
Auditor’s internal control warning undermines Om Infra Limited’s claim of stable execution discipline.
8This means the company’s accounting systems are being questioned at the same time it reports improved quarterly profitability.
"Solarworld Energy Solutions goes to Delhi High Court after SGEL contract suspension and conditional bank guarantee invocation".
8That means the counterparty relationship has moved from execution friction into a court-protection phase, which usually reflects a breakdown in commercial resolution.
Zelio E-Mobility denies any undisclosed trigger behind the share price move.
8It states there is no event or information, including any impending announcement, that may have a bearing on the price or volume movement.
Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited’s Rs 2,994 crore QIP plan caps government dilution at 3.76%
8That means the capital-raise structure is being engineered around ownership optics as much as balance-sheet funding.
Waaree Renewable Technologies Limited’s bank loans get ‘rating watch’ tag .
8That means the market is being told the rating outcome is in flux, with a developing trigger that is not described in the exchange filing.
G R Infraprojects Limited’s profit rose, but the quarter’s tax bill jumped even faster.
8That means the post-tax outcome is materially more fragile than the pre-tax headline implies because a tax swing can erase a meaningful portion of net profit.
Bajel Projects Limited won a ?400 crore order .
8The scope is heavy on 765 kV line construction, which can turn into a right-of-way risk story
ACME Solar Holdings Limited highlights AA- rating for subsidiary debt, not parent balance-sheet strength .
8That means the credit headline is structurally ring-fenced inside one project SPV rather than reflecting consolidated leverage comfort.
Union Budget language drives the merger narrative, while the filing avoids the word ‘timeline’ entirely.
8The catalyst is not a deal document, but a budget speech line that the board treats as a trigger.
Torrent Power adds a Rs 2,000 crore NCD programme, but the filing reads like a reaffirmation note.
8That means the credit signal is stability, while the incremental news is capacity to raise more long-term debt under an unchanged rating band.
ACME Solar Holdings Limited announced a 301 MW FDRE win.
8The bid requires delivery of 4 MWh per MW during non-solar hours with 70% monthly and 85% annual availability obligations.
Star Delta Transformers Limited’s ?53.3 crore revenue hides that profit fell 48% sequentially.
8It means the operational narrative is fragile because higher sales did not protect earnings momentum.
HBL Engineering Limited’s Q3 revenue fell 28% sequentially, turning last quarter’s surge into a fade.
8That means the headline narrative is not “momentum” but volatility, with earnings power swinging by quarter even as the company keeps reporting profits.
Quality Power Electrical Equipments Limited claims ‘no deviation’ while deferring capex and M&A timelines.
8That means compliance is being defined narrowly as “not changing objects,” while execution slippage is still occurring in the use-of-proceeds plan.
Ujaas Energy Limited tells exchanges price movement is ‘market-driven’ and denies any undisclosed event".
8 It states it has not withheld any material information that would have a bearing on the price or volume of its shares and attributes the movement to market conditions.
Sarda Energy & Minerals Limited’s Q3 profit fell 42% sequentially despite a ‘resilient’ press release tone.
8That means the core quarterly signal is contraction, not resilience, and the narrative is doing more work than the numbers

Star Delta Transformers Limited’s ?53.3 crore revenue hides that profit fell 48% sequentially.
8It means the operational narrative is fragile because higher sales did not protect earnings momentum.
HBL Engineering Limited’s Q3 revenue fell 28% sequentially, turning last quarter’s surge into a fade.
8That means the headline narrative is not “momentum” but volatility, with earnings power swinging by quarter even as the company keeps reporting profits.
Quality Power Electrical Equipments Limited claims ‘no deviation’ while deferring capex and M&A timelines.
8That means compliance is being defined narrowly as “not changing objects,” while execution slippage is still occurring in the use-of-proceeds plan.
Ujaas Energy Limited tells exchanges price movement is ‘market-driven’ and denies any undisclosed event".
8 It states it has not withheld any material information that would have a bearing on the price or volume of its shares and attributes the movement to market conditions.
Sarda Energy & Minerals Limited’s Q3 profit fell 42% sequentially despite a ‘resilient’ press release tone.
8That means the core quarterly signal is contraction, not resilience, and the narrative is doing more work than the numbers

Regulatory Updates: Part I
Feb 09:
1) GERC freezes wind PPA cost dispute pending Supreme Court curative verdict
8The case also highlights how curative proceedings at the national level can stall state-level regulatory enforcement.
2) Gujarat regulator shuts down capacitor billing plea on jurisdiction grounds
8The decision signals a tightening of procedural discipline and a rejection of attempts to convert regulatory forums into public-interest grievance platforms.
3) Wind industry body withdraws GERC connectivity challenge after new procedure approval
8For renewable developers, the spotlight now moves to how the new connectivity regime will be interpreted and contested in future forums.
4) GERC closes hybrid tariff petition after earlier framework already settled issue
8It also signals that transitional gaps between policy announcements and tariff notifications will not automatically justify interim commissioning rights.
5) Regulator shuts down legacy solar tariff claim after Supreme Court precedent
8The decision reinforces judicial finality in tariff interpretation disputes. For legacy renewable projects, it signals that post-judgment revival attempts face steep legal barriers.
6) Chhattisgarh launches multi-year tariff reset across power value chain
8The regulatory cycle now underway will shape cost flows and tariff structures across Chhattisgarh’s electricity ecosystem for multiple years.
7) DVC: Past cost gaps return to the table
8This shifts the debate from just future projections to legacy financial performance as consumers could see delayed cost adjustments surface in upcoming orders.
8) Regulator begins cost true-up for past Tata utility operations
8The outcome will decide whether utilities recover shortfalls or return excess collections.
9) Regulator opens last consultation gate before tariff rule rewrite
8Generators, transmission licensees, and bulk consumers now face a narrow window to defend cost recovery positions.
10) UPPCL warns revised norms may weaken DISCOM cost recovery
8The utility argues this would strain already fragile state distribution finances.
11) Utility challenges storage tariff framework, seeks tighter regulatory control
8A major state utility has questioned the legal and financial architecture proposed for integrating energy storage into India’s central tariff framework.
12) Legacy control systems enter fresh tariff cycle
8Digital grid control infrastructure commissioned nearly a decade ago is now financially reset for another five-year period.
13) MAT-linked RoE shield protects transmission returns
8Despite capital corrections, return on equity remains insulated through tax gross-up using notified MAT rates and this preserves investor returns irrespective of tax regime variability.
14) Delay shadow hangs over RE transmission build-out in Rajasthan
8This timing shift raises regulatory focus on whether cost overrun justifications will hold as beneficiary utilities now face tariff flows tied to delayed infrastructure.
15) Regulator wipes out delay risk for NER assets
8The Commission ruled there was no time overrun in the commissioning of all three assets and this removes exposure to delay-linked cost disallowance.

CERC vs. Powergrid-II: High stakes game
Feb 09:
1) Regulator tightens data scrutiny for AGC redundancy transmission assets
8Transmission cost recovery now hinges on documentary precision.
2) Regulator seeks fresh cost proof for Delhi substation project from Powergrid
8The demand targets legacy capital expenditure now being trued up.
3) Regulator seeks RLDC proof before recognising asset charging
8The Commission has demanded a formal RLDC charging certificate, placing operational proof at the centre of tariff admissibility for Delhi transmission assets.
4) Date discrepancy in NCT approval triggers regulatory scrutiny
8The Commission has questioned inconsistencies in the reported date of the 28th NCT meeting in Powergrid Hassan ICT tariff.
5) CERC flags data gaps in ERSS-XV tariff filing, seeks detailed financial disclosures
8The move reinforces CERC’s sharper focus on data integrity before approving multi-year transmission tariffs.
6) Regulator reopens legacy capitalisation trail tied to transmission cost recovery tied to the Rihand system
8This raises questions over whether earlier deferrals are being repeatedly rolled forward.
7) Regulator flags financial model gaps in Powergrid tariff filing for this transformer upgrade
8The regulator is signaling that spreadsheet-level traceability is now mandatory.
8) CERC halts ERSS-XIV tariff process pending fresh cost and asset disclosures

Market Round-up
Feb 09:
1) Liquidity vanished on two venues as real-time hit the cap
8On 2026-02-07, real-time MCP touched Rs 10,000.00/MWh at 07:00 (T29), while two other venues printed zero/blank through the same blocks.
Inference: participation concentrated into one marketplace, turning early blocks into a thin-liquidity spike zone (price cap with no offsetting depth elsewhere).
Why it matters: when liquidity fragments, a single venue’s scarcity prints become the de-facto national reference, amplifying procurement risk for intraday balancing.
2) Day-ahead lost the plot against real-time before breakfast
8On 2026-02-07 at 06:45 (T28), real-time MCP surged to Rs 9,999.32/MWh while day-ahead at the same block was Rs 4,600.01/MWh (basis +Rs 5,399.31/MWh).
Inference: the shock is intraday-specific (not “priced in” day-ahead), consistent with a sudden balancing shortfall rather than a gradual demand trend.
Why it matters: a +Rs 5.40/kWh basis is a direct cost escalator for buyers leaning on RTM to correct schedules.
3) An afternoon price floor cracked despite normal day-ahead levels
8On 2026-02-08 at 15:45 (T64), real-time MCP collapsed to Rs 188.38/MWh (Rs 0.19/kWh) while day-ahead for the same block stayed at Rs 1,767.00/MWh.
Inference: the drop looks like a localized surplus pocket (or aggressive sell bidding) that RTM cleared but DAM did not reflect at the same granularity.
Why it matters: extreme intraday downside can destabilise dispatch incentives-good for opportunistic buyers, risky for flexible generators counting on shoulder-hour revenues.
4) Real-time prices fell when volumes rose-consistently, not occasionally
8Across 2026-02-06 to 2026-02-08, real-time MCP and real-time cleared volume moved inversely in the same blocks (lag 0 correlations: ρ≈-0.43, -0.52, -0.79 by day).
Inference: higher cleared volumes coincided with lower scarcity pricing, suggesting RTM tightness was driven by “thin” periods rather than uniformly high demand.
Why it matters: risk management should watch liquidity/participation as much as demand-thin blocks can be costlier than peak blocks.
5) Renewables carried the peak, but the system still leaned on balancing
8On 2026-02-07 (solar hours 07:00–17:00), max demand met was 235,957 MW at 09:43, with wind 4,507 MW (1.91%) and solar 57,834 MW (24.51%)-total VRE 62,340 MW (26.42%).
Inference: even with VRE >26% at peak, the market still showed severe intraday stress earlier that morning, pointing to timing/ramps rather than “not enough energy.”
Why it matters: policy focus shifts from adding MWh to ensuring flexible MW-otherwise volatility survives even on “good renewable” days.
6) Pumped storage turned net-pumping even with zero peak shortage flags
8For 2026-02-08, the PSP daily report shows Peak Shortage (MW) as 0, while the Schedule(MU) line contains negative entries (net pumping) alongside positive ones.
Inference: PSP was used for energy shifting/market economics (charging during softer blocks), not as an emergency shortage plug.
Why it matters: PSP behaviour can steepen intraday spreads-supporting low-price valleys and setting up sharper peaks when discharge is reserved.
7) North thermal missed the day’s program-hydro didn’t fully cushion it
8On 2026-02-05, Northern Region thermal generation was 776.60 MU vs program 970.79 MU, while hydro was 107.50 MU vs program 115.62 MU.
Inference: the thermal shortfall is large enough that any next-day scheduling reliance would push buyers toward intraday correction, raising exposure to RTM spikes.
Why it matters: when the base slips, balancing costs rise first-and they show up as volatile intraday MCP, not as a neat monthly adjustment.
8) Coal stress showed up as “zero cover” flags at a large station
8On 2026-02-07, a 1,320 MW station line shows PLF at 0% and “Stock vis-à-vis normative” printed as 0.0, with receipt and consumption also printed as 0.0 (flagged line item).
Inference: this looks like a non-running/constraint condition with coal logistics not flowing that day-exactly the kind of hidden fragility that can spill into short-notice balancing.
Why it matters: even isolated stoppages reduce system slack; the market then prices “surprise scarcity” into a handful of blocks at punitive rates.

5) Renewables carried the peak, but the system still leaned on balancing
8On 2026-02-07 (solar hours 07:00–17:00), max demand met was 235,957 MW at 09:43, with wind 4,507 MW (1.91%) and solar 57,834 MW (24.51%)-total VRE 62,340 MW (26.42%).
Inference: even with VRE >26% at peak, the market still showed severe intraday stress earlier that morning, pointing to timing/ramps rather than “not enough energy.”
Why it matters: policy focus shifts from adding MWh to ensuring flexible MW-otherwise volatility survives even on “good renewable” days.
6) Pumped storage turned net-pumping even with zero peak shortage flags
8For 2026-02-08, the PSP daily report shows Peak Shortage (MW) as 0, while the Schedule(MU) line contains negative entries (net pumping) alongside positive ones.
Inference: PSP was used for energy shifting/market economics (charging during softer blocks), not as an emergency shortage plug.
Why it matters: PSP behaviour can steepen intraday spreads-supporting low-price valleys and setting up sharper peaks when discharge is reserved.
7) North thermal missed the day’s program-hydro didn’t fully cushion it
8On 2026-02-05, Northern Region thermal generation was 776.60 MU vs program 970.79 MU, while hydro was 107.50 MU vs program 115.62 MU.
Inference: the thermal shortfall is large enough that any next-day scheduling reliance would push buyers toward intraday correction, raising exposure to RTM spikes.
Why it matters: when the base slips, balancing costs rise first-and they show up as volatile intraday MCP, not as a neat monthly adjustment.
8) Coal stress showed up as “zero cover” flags at a large station
8On 2026-02-07, a 1,320 MW station line shows PLF at 0% and “Stock vis-à-vis normative” printed as 0.0, with receipt and consumption also printed as 0.0 (flagged line item).
Inference: this looks like a non-running/constraint condition with coal logistics not flowing that day-exactly the kind of hidden fragility that can spill into short-notice balancing.
Why it matters: even isolated stoppages reduce system slack; the market then prices “surprise scarcity” into a handful of blocks at punitive rates.

Miscellaneous Update: Part I
Feb 09:
1) India’s ISTS transmission losses ease as renewable-heavy daytime flows improve grid efficiency
8The most loss-intensive periods remain early-morning low-load hours and evening ramp windows, where directional stress and reactive flows typically rise.
2) Nighttime loss volatility remains structurally high
8Loss swings in late night blocks remain wide, often crossing 5%. This volatility suggests unstable low-load voltage and reactive conditions (R1)
3) Rajasthan dispatch stack shows coal dominance as gas and liquid units price out of the system
8But a regulatory revision in state sector tariffs has reshuffled merit positions, indicating that commercial decisions - not just fuel efficiency - are influencing dispatch order.
4) Rajasthan discom adopts sports performance pay incentives for employees
8Staff delivering standout performances at national and international competitions will now receive structured personal pay increments linked to their pay level.
5) HESCOM: Refunds ordered even as losses accumulate
8How did it end up doing so
6) CESC Mysuru: Large financial totals suggest settlement-style processing rather than routine billing
8Such scale typically aligns with staff settlements, arrear adjustments, or major financial reconciliations.
7) HVPNL: February payout locks in large cash outflow from state transmission utility
8Transmission operations remain unaffected, but treasury planning tightens.

Power Committee Updates
Feb 09:
1) North Eastern Grid: Planning to risk management
8The North Eastern region is entering a phase where operational discipline, funding clarity, and regulatory compliance will determine grid resilience more than asset creation alone.
2) Metering failures: The weakest link that won’t heal in the North East
8Despite years of discussion, SEM data gaps persist across multiple states. The 45-day ultimatum marks a rare escalation. Metering has quietly moved from a backend issue to a compliance red flag. Continued failure could undermine settlement credibility.
3) Why is India’s hydro generation losing its balancing power-literally
8Country’s clean flexibility resource is becoming unreliable just when it’s most needed.
4) Shutdowns everywhere, headroom nowhere: How transmission execution is colliding with a stressed southern grid
8What emerges is a pattern: national infrastructure projects, renewable evacuation lines, and deferred commissioning milestones are all competing for shutdown windows that the grid can no longer comfortably provide.
5) The shutdown economy in India’s power sector: When every transmission outage becomes a negotiation
8Repeated shutdown requests now resemble commercial negotiations rather than technical clearances. The OCC is weighing megawatts of lost ATC against months of delayed project execution. This is no longer outage planning - it is risk pricing. The Southern grid is effectively operating on borrowed margins.

Northern grid disturbances shift from equipment failures to inverter-driven instability between December and January
Feb 06:
8The most striking anomaly was a nearly 3.8 GW instantaneous RE generation loss in Rajasthan during a voltage dip and overvoltage cascade. For operators and regulators, the tension is no longer just equipment reliability, but dynamic stability in a grid with rapidly rising inverter-based generation.

Market Round-up
Feb 06:
1) Morning DAM blowout priced a scarcity premium long before RTM cleared it
8DAM MCP jumped to Rs 8.70/kWh at 07:30–07:45 (T31–T32), while RTM for the same blocks cleared at Rs 5.35/kWh and Rs 5.00/kWh.
Inference: The premium looks “forward” (DAM) rather than real-time (RTM): DAM purchase bids stayed far above sell bids through the spike window, signalling tight sell-side depth into the morning ramp.
Why it matters: a Rs 3.70/kWh DAM–RTM basis at T32 is pure forecasting cost for buyers who could have leaned on RTM.
2) DAM hit a hard regime break after 08:00; volatility was not “smooth”
8After the spike, DAM MCP dropped from Rs 6.25/kWh (08:00, T33) to Rs 3.94/kWh (08:45, T36) in under an hour.
Inference: This looks like a cleared-supply catch-up (sell side recovering) rather than demand collapse, because scheduled volumes stayed sizable while prices mean-reverted sharply.
Why it matters: it increases the value of intra-day re-optimisation; static DAM positions were punished on both sides of the break.
3) Real-time balancing stayed “heavy” all day even without an obvious shortage headline
8NLDC’s ancillary/SCUC daily sheet shows SCUC-Up scheduled 48,162 MWh and SCUC-Down scheduled −48,103 MWh on 2026-02-05.
Inference: Near-symmetric up/down energy points to continuous re-balancing (commitment + de-commitment) rather than one-direction scarcity.
Why it matters: this kind of churn typically amplifies RTM price sensitivity and raises balancing risk for states riding close to schedules.
4) HPX ASDAM printed “zero market” blocks — a liquidity signal, not a footnote
8HPX ASDAM shows 0.0000 MWh cleared across successive 15-minute blocks on 05/02/2026 (market effectively absent at block level).
Inference: With DAM/RTM price discovery happening elsewhere the same day, this looks like liquidity concentration risk: fewer venues meaningfully set short-term prices.
Why it matters: thin venues can’t absorb stress when one exchange tightens, raising systemic execution risk for participants.
5) PXIL IDAS showed bids but no cleared price/volume — a fragmentation warning
8PXIL’s IDAS volume profile lists sell bids (e.g., 104.50 MWh at 00:00–00:15) but shows MCV/Scheduled Volume/MCP.
Inference: This pattern is consistent with order-book presence without matchable counterparties (or a no-trade day for the product).
Why it matters: partial liquidity creates false comfort in “available” supply while forcing actual procurement into other, potentially costlier routes.
6) NER frequency compliance was weak on 2026-02-04 — 26% of time outside IEGC band
8NER FDI sheet reports frequency outside 49.9–50.05 Hz for 26.08% of the day (6.15 hours), with min 49.83 Hz and max 50.27 Hz.
Inference: The tail risk is not about average frequency (reported 50.01 Hz), but about time spent outside the band — a control quality issue.
Why it matters: sustained excursions increase deviation exposure and undermine confidence in “stable grid” claims built only on averages.
7) High scheduled drawal plus meaningful OD/UD clustered in a few big states
8NLDC PSP state table shows large drawal schedules alongside material OD/UD: Maharashtra 199.4 MU schedule with −2.9 MU OD/UD; Rajasthan 99.0 MU with −4.8 MU; Tamil Nadu 220.7 MU with +0.8 MU (all on 2026-02-05).
Inference: These are “high-throughput” states where small percentage errors convert into big absolute deviations, especially during ramp hours.
Why it matters: the same states are the first to transmit balancing stress into market prices and ancillary deployments.
8) DAM–RTM basis widening followed RTM moves with a 1-block lag (statistically, not rhetorically)
8Using the full 96-block MCP series on 2026-02-05, the DAM–RTM basis shows a 1-block lag correlation ~ρ=0.49 with RTM MCP (0–8 block scan), crossing your |ρ|≥0.35 flag.
Inference: RTM volatility appears to “pull” the basis wider in the next block more than it is purely simultaneous — consistent with buyers re-pricing forward exposure after seeing RTM.
Why it matters: procurement teams can’t treat DAM and RTM as independent levers intra-day; the basis is reactive and can snowball.

8DAM MCP jumped to Rs 8.70/kWh at 07:30–07:45 (T31–T32), while RTM for the same blocks cleared at Rs 5.35/kWh and Rs 5.00/kWh.
Inference: The premium looks “forward” (DAM) rather than real-time (RTM): DAM purchase bids stayed far above sell bids through the spike window, signalling tight sell-side depth into the morning ramp.
Why it matters: a Rs 3.70/kWh DAM–RTM basis at T32 is pure forecasting cost for buyers who could have leaned on RTM.

5) PXIL IDAS showed bids but no cleared price/volume — a fragmentation warning
8PXIL’s IDAS volume profile lists sell bids (e.g., 104.50 MWh at 00:00–00:15) but shows MCV/Scheduled Volume/MCP.
Inference: This pattern is consistent with order-book presence without matchable counterparties (or a no-trade day for the product).
Why it matters: partial liquidity creates false comfort in “available” supply while forcing actual procurement into other, potentially costlier routes.
6) NER frequency compliance was weak on 2026-02-04 — 26% of time outside IEGC band
8NER FDI sheet reports frequency outside 49.9–50.05 Hz for 26.08% of the day (6.15 hours), with min 49.83 Hz and max 50.27 Hz.
Inference: The tail risk is not about average frequency (reported 50.01 Hz), but about time spent outside the band — a control quality issue.
Why it matters: sustained excursions increase deviation exposure and undermine confidence in “stable grid” claims built only on averages.
7) High scheduled drawal plus meaningful OD/UD clustered in a few big states
8NLDC PSP state table shows large drawal schedules alongside material OD/UD: Maharashtra 199.4 MU schedule with −2.9 MU OD/UD; Rajasthan 99.0 MU with −4.8 MU; Tamil Nadu 220.7 MU with +0.8 MU (all on 2026-02-05).
Inference: These are “high-throughput” states where small percentage errors convert into big absolute deviations, especially during ramp hours.
Why it matters: the same states are the first to transmit balancing stress into market prices and ancillary deployments.
8) DAM–RTM basis widening followed RTM moves with a 1-block lag (statistically, not rhetorically)
8Using the full 96-block MCP series on 2026-02-05, the DAM–RTM basis shows a 1-block lag correlation ~ρ=0.49 with RTM MCP (0–8 block scan), crossing your |ρ|≥0.35 flag.
Inference: RTM volatility appears to “pull” the basis wider in the next block more than it is purely simultaneous — consistent with buyers re-pricing forward exposure after seeing RTM.
Why it matters: procurement teams can’t treat DAM and RTM as independent levers intra-day; the basis is reactive and can snowball.

Power Committee Updates
Feb 06:
1) NR’s deviation economics flipped in a week: the WR–NR rent collapsed-and Delhi quietly became the week’s biggest ‘discipline winner’
8This reads like a grid that tightened one set of deviations (especially inter-regional) while exposing a second-order truth: NR’s “discipline” is still entity-specific, not systemic-so the money just rotates to the next weakest participant.
2) Delhi’s reactive bill collapses, but the pool’s receivable stack grows-UP and NTPC tighten their grip on VAR money flow
8This fortnight reads like a grid whose reactive economics are tightening into a few large sinks and a handful of volatile payers, with Delhi’s swing the cleanest behavioural change on the payable side.
3) WR’s transmission “availability” story is being propped up by month-long deemed outages-while the real risk is drifting into weather, pollution, and asset-health failures
8The grid’s fragility shows up more sharply through environment-driven faults-kite thread marks, stubble-burning fly-ash induced faults, and temperature-linked equipment limitations-signalling that “externalities” are now operational variables.
4) January in East India closes with a split-screen incentive story: a few units mint “peak-eligible” value while legacy stations bleed negative eligibility and push the bill back onto beneficiaries
8The structural tension: the region’s incentive pool is being distorted by persistent off-peak negatives (seen repeatedly in totals and beneficiary rows), so the grid is implicitly rewarding a narrow slice of operational behaviour while penalising broad, recurring scheduling patterns
5) Recertified Eastern region data: APNRL’s DC story flips from “data correction risk” in Dec to “higher declaration, higher surrender” in Jan-buyers aren’t absorbing what’s being certified
8Net-net, this pack reads less like a generator performance note and more like a demand discipline and data-governance stress test-first through revision, then through under-absorption.

Miscellaneous Update: Part I
Feb 06:
1) POWERGRID collapses 17 transmission SPVs into two entities under MCA-approved merger
8Operationally, it signals a shift from fragmented SPV structures toward tighter portfolio aggregation. Regulators and lenders will now evaluate these assets under fewer but larger corporate shells.
2) Northern states gain central power share as India’s allocation pool expands modestly in January
8The pattern signals seasonal and regulatory rebalancing of central resources toward northern demand centres.
3) India’s winter peak climbs past 245 GW as northern demand drives seasonal system stress
8The combined data signals a grid entering a high-demand quarter with tightening regional balances but no nationwide deficit.
4) APGENCO extends key APPC engineering deputation to maintain procurement continuity
8It has formally extended the deputation of a mechanical engineering officer at the state power procurement wing, preventing a staffing gap at a sensitive operational node.
5) Temporary promotions at APGENCO tied to court outcomes and strict joining rules
8It has issued temporary promotion orders elevating four Deputy Executive Engineers to Executive Engineer rank while simultaneously shifting one senior officer through a transfer.
6) Maharashtra transmission utility moves to embed policy and planning expertise
8It has initiated the hiring of two high-level consultants to strengthen its internal analytical and planning capacity.
7) Rajasthan Roundup: Chhabra thermal plant reports broad EC compliance but flags partial safeguards
8AVVNL eases bond exit rule for staff joining government services
8) Delhi gas plant seeks tariff relief after PLF collapse despite high availability
8Fuel cost pressures and take-or-pay gas commitments have amplified the financial strain. Additional O&M burdens from emission-control burners and sewage treatment operations are also being claimed.

Regulatory Updates: Part I
Feb 06:
1) Karnataka regulator opens scrutiny window on utility performance costs
8Karnataka’s power regulator has triggered a statewide review cycle that could reshape how utility cost overruns translate into consumer tariffs.
2) Rising procurement costs and loss spike squeeze MPSEZ’s distribution margins in Q3
8The most striking shift is the T&D loss increase from 2.54% to 4.05%, signalling a sudden deterioration in network efficiency, and there are other striking issues as well.
3) TNERC orders high interest payout, clears short-term power buys
8Tamil Nadu’s power regulator has enforced financial discipline on delayed generator payments while simultaneously securing near-term power supply for the state grid.
4) Tamil Nadu regulator clears 1,500 MW medium-term power hedge
8Tamil Nadu’s power regulator has approved a significant expansion of medium-term power procurement, allowing the state utility to secure 1,500 MW of round-the-clock supply under competitive bidding. The decision adds 700 MW to an earlier 800 MW approval, consolidating both into a single five-year tender.
5) CERC trims Fatehabad asset base while locking in new five-year transmission tariffs
8A modest but notable capital adjustment was imposed through disallowance of excess initial spares, slightly reducing the regulatory asset value.
6) CERC moves to license major NR–WR grid strengthening corridor
8The project centers on a new 765 kV Prayagraj substation and multiple line integrations that reshape existing power flows across Uttar Pradesh and adjoining regions.

Ministry of Coal Updates
Feb 10:
1) India’s coal stripping ratio stabilises as public miners deepen excavation intensity
8Fresh company-level data shows public sector miners driving most of the rise in excavation depth, while private producers report a sharp reduction in stripping pressure.
2) Captive coal miners emerge as fastest-growing supply segment
8Their output has multiplied several times, outpacing growth from established public sector miners.
3) Coal growth deceleration suggests shift from expansion to consolidation
8The drop from double-digit growth to under 5% indicates a transition phase as the billion tonne benchmark is crossed. The industry may now be focusing on efficiency rather than rapid volume expansion.
4) Washed coal output rises despite sharp multi-year yield erosion
8Raw coal feed has climbed sharply, but yield has dropped from above 50 percent to the low-30 percent range before a partial recovery. This indicates that higher input volumes, rather than process gains, are driving output growth.
5) India’s coal growth story is now almost entirely opencast-driven
8Underground mining, once seen as a strategic long-term reserve builder, has shrunk both in volume and share.

Power Committee Updates
Feb 10:
1) When a LILO breaks a nuclear assumption in India
8The Vapi LILO didn’t just reroute power - it invalidated a regulator-approved nuclear islanding scheme. NPCIL’s admission that KAPS-1&2 cannot island as designed is unusually candid and it exposes how fragile protection assumptions can be in a dynamically reconfigured grid.
2) WR’s Power Ancillary Economy Split Wide Open: SCUC pays out big, while coal fleets bleed in TRAS shortfall
8The structural tension is clear: reliability actions (SCUC) are creating concentrated payouts, while “discipline” actions (shortfall settlements) spread pain, and the same names keep surfacing across mechanisms-hinting at persistent behavioural and technical regimes rather than one-off volatility.
3) North Grid’s March risk isn’t “one big outage” - it’s the quiet stacking of hydro unit maintenance with late-month 765 kV corridor work
8The commercial lever is straightforward: when outages pile up, the value moves from “energy” to availability + corridor headroom-the week rewards whoever can stay online and flexible when everyone else is scheduled off.

Market Round-up
Feb 10:
1) DAM clears at a premium to RTM as Monday demand rebounds
8DAM MCP jumped to Rs 3.20/kWh on 2026-02-09 while RTM was lower at Rs 3.06/kWh.
Inference: RTM softened because real-time balancing load was absorbed through system ramp (thermal + hydro) and net exports, even as day-ahead demand expectations lifted DAM bids.
Why it matters: a Rs 0.15/kWh DAM–RTM basis can reward day-ahead hedging and penalise late procurement.
2) A 07:15 frequency cliff hits during the morning demand surge
8All-India frequency fell from 50.07 Hz (07:00) to 49.83 Hz (07:15) as demand rose above 213 GW.
Inference: the drop lines up with a fast demand pickup while thermal and hydro were still catching up, before the next block’s stabilisation.
Why it matters: sharp frequency steps in the morning ramp signal tighter primary/secondary response needs outside the classic evening peak.
3) Wind drops precede weaker frequency, with a 1.5–2 hour lag signal
8Wind output slid ahead of a weaker frequency patch, with the strongest lagged link around 6–8 blocks.
Inference: using the 96-block SCADA table, frequency shows a negative correlation with wind at lag 7 blocks (|ρ|≈0.36), suggesting wind easing is followed by frequency softness later.
Why it matters: this is an early-warning handle for reserve scheduling when morning wind fades ahead of the demand ramp.
4) Ancillary dispatch skews heavily to down-regulation, signalling surplus management stress
8On 2026-02-09, TRAS down energy was -29,815 MWh versus only 4,903 MWh up; SRAS down was -8,510 MWh versus 5,521 MWh up.
Inference: the system spent more effort absorbing surplus (down) than sourcing shortage (up), consistent with high daytime solar and midday balancing.
Why it matters: persistent down-dispatch raises cycling risk and compensation questions for flexible fleets.
5) 400 kV planned outages cluster on a single day, concentrated in a few owners
855 transmission elements show outage start on 2026-02-09, dominated by 400 kV equipment (39 of 55) and led by one owner’s assets (21 entries).
Inference: this density of same-day high-voltage work compresses operational headroom and increases reliance on real-time balancing tools.
Why it matters: clustered outages heighten the probability of local constraints and redispatch costs even if inter-regional corridors look clean.
6) A major hydro-storage cluster reports unit unavailability at both ends of the day
8Two 250 MW hydro-storage units in Uttarakhand show outages logged at 00:24 and again near 19:44 on 2026-02-09.
Inference: flexibility loss around the evening peak window can shift burden to thermal ramping and ancillary reserves.
Why it matters: storage/hydro outages during peak hours can amplify price volatility and frequency excursions without showing up as “shortage.”
7) Zero reported peak shortage coexists with large state-level deviation balances
8Multiple states show zero peak shortage, yet large net underdrawals/overdrawals: Maharashtra -7.4 MU, Rajasthan -5.3 MU, Gujarat -3.3 MU on 2026-02-09.
Inference: “no shortage” at the reporting layer can still hide aggressive schedule management and balancing reliance at the state boundary.
Why it matters: deviation exposure can build even on “normal” days, shaping DSM risk and procurement behaviour.
8) Coal stock looks comfortable in aggregate, but the signal is blunt for risk spotting
8Linked plants’ aggregate coal stock is shown at 48,270.7 (‘000 tonnes) against a daily requirement of 2,120.95 (‘000 tonnes), implying ~23 days of cover as on 2026-02-08.
Inference: the headline “days” number can mask stressed pockets because it aggregates across regions and plants.
Why it matters: relying on the national average can delay recognition of local scarcity that later shows up as outages, import dependence, or higher balancing costs.

Miscellaneous Update: Part I
Feb 10:
1) Rajasthan transmission utility defends Rs 1,800-crore asset additions amid cost scrutiny
8The case also signals tighter regulatory attention on hedging practices, cost overrun accountability and replacement capitalisation.
2) Dual power supply option opened for HT consumers with double fixed cost impact
8The amendment signals a regulatory tilt toward cost-reflective reliability provisioning rather than cross-subsidized redundancy.
3) HVPNL invokes no-work-no-wages rule ahead of nationwide power-sector strike
8The order signals that grid operations, especially at substations, are being treated as a continuity priority amid labour unrest.
4) Gujarat holds FPPAS steady at Rs.2.30/unit for second straight quarter
8The absence of revision indicates no recognised surge in fuel or power purchase costs (R7). This stabilizes billing predictability for non-agriculture consumers.
5) FPPA requirement drops nearly 70 percent in one quarter in Gujarat
8This represents a 4.25 percentage point reduction. The decline corresponds with lower APC and reduced variable cost (R2). Consumers face sharply reduced tariff adjustment pressure.
6) Renukaji dam land cases move into argument and order stages
8The latest cause list shows a transition from admission and reply filings toward arguments and even orders in select cases.

CERC vs. Powergrid-I: There are many fault lines
Feb 09:
1) Regulator reopens capitalisation claims from previous tariff block for solar transmission case
8Past approvals are not being treated as automatic precedents.
2) Regulator demands proof behind transmission cost escalation
8CERC has formally acknowledged that the Eastern Region Expansion Scheme project experienced cost overrun and has asked the utility to clarify whether revised cost approval is underway.
3) CERC tightens scrutiny on PGCIL solar interconnection transmission tariff claim
8Time overrun explanations and potential liquidated damages adjustments have become central risk variables.
4) Regulator demands loan-level interest proof for tariff approval
8CERC has asked Powergrid to disclose exact floating interest rates sourced from its loan compendium.
5) Regulator seeks appeal status of Tehri PSP before clearing transmission cost claims
8The regulatory rationale for linking appeal status to tariff approval is not explicitly stated.
6) CERC intensifies cost and delay scrutiny on Rajasthan REZ transmission project
8The broader signal points to a tightening regulatory stance on renewable transmission infrastructure cost validation.
7) CERC tightens scrutiny on Powergrid tariff claims for eastern split-bus assets
8The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission has escalated data scrutiny in Powergrid’s transmission tariff filing covering both the 2019–24 truing-up cycle and the 2024–29 control period.
8) Regulator questions capital cost trail for seven PowerGrid telecom transmission assets
8The scrutiny spans both the 2019-24 and 2024-29 tariff periods and beneficiaries may face tariff uncertainty if cost recognition is delayed.
9) Regulator demands loan computation transparency from Powergrid NE transmission tariffs
8The directive raises the compliance bar for tariff filings as transmission financiers and auditors are indirect stakeholders.
10) Regulator demands ACE breakdown before tariff approval moves ahead for Powergrid OPGW tariff petition
8Transmission licensees now face tighter validation on post-commissioning expenditure and financial closure for minor communication assets may slow.
11) CERC flags cost, delay, and financing gaps in Nalagarh ICT tariff case
8Revised capital cost, interest during construction, and liability schedules have been placed under direct scrutiny.
12) CERC flags delay scrutiny in solar-linked transmission tariff case
8Power Grid has been asked to justify time overruns and provide detailed financing cost disclosures before tariff determination proceeds.
13) CERC halts tariff scrutiny pending cost, IDC and delay disclosures in this interstate transmission project
8The directive targets assets linked to renewable generator connectivity at Bikaner-II, a node central to Rajasthan’s green power evacuation corridor.
14) CERC flags cost escalation risks in Powergrid’s North East communication tariff petition
8Beneficiaries and regional utilities could face delayed tariff certainty if responses are deemed insufficient.
15) Regulator demands loan-wise interest workings for Northern Region fibre-optic strengthening scheme
8This shifts scrutiny directly onto financing assumptions underlying capital cost recovery.
16) CERC flags cost overrun in Powergrid’s Hosur ICT tariff petition

Company Updates
Feb 09:
Siemens Limited’s Smart Infrastructure segment drove results while Mobility margins stayed thin.
8That means Siemens’ profitability is increasingly concentrated in Smart Infrastructure rather than broadly distributed across divisions. Click on Details for more.
Azad India Mobility Limited’s quarterly sales rebound still sits far below last year’s base.
8If the company cannot re-expand toward that earlier revenue level, profitability improvements risk becoming a low-base optical effect rather than a durable operating reset.
CESC: Generation falls 4% while power purchase rises, shifting the profit mix away from owned supply.
8This means more of the unit economics may be coming from bought power rather than owned generation, which can alter margin stability depending on procurement terms and regulatory pass-through.
GMR Power and Urban Infra’s GKEL fair value depends on dispute settlements and expansion assumptions, not disclosed performance proof".
8That means a meaningful portion of “value” is effectively a bet on claim resolution and operational ramp-up, which are both execution- and adjudication-dependent.
Auditor’s internal control warning undermines Om Infra Limited’s claim of stable execution discipline.
8This means the company’s accounting systems are being questioned at the same time it reports improved quarterly profitability.
"Solarworld Energy Solutions goes to Delhi High Court after SGEL contract suspension and conditional bank guarantee invocation".
8That means the counterparty relationship has moved from execution friction into a court-protection phase, which usually reflects a breakdown in commercial resolution.
Zelio E-Mobility denies any undisclosed trigger behind the share price move.
8It states there is no event or information, including any impending announcement, that may have a bearing on the price or volume movement.
Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited’s Rs 2,994 crore QIP plan caps government dilution at 3.76%
8That means the capital-raise structure is being engineered around ownership optics as much as balance-sheet funding.
Waaree Renewable Technologies Limited’s bank loans get ‘rating watch’ tag .
8That means the market is being told the rating outcome is in flux, with a developing trigger that is not described in the exchange filing.
G R Infraprojects Limited’s profit rose, but the quarter’s tax bill jumped even faster.
8That means the post-tax outcome is materially more fragile than the pre-tax headline implies because a tax swing can erase a meaningful portion of net profit.
Bajel Projects Limited won a ?400 crore order .
8The scope is heavy on 765 kV line construction, which can turn into a right-of-way risk story
ACME Solar Holdings Limited highlights AA- rating for subsidiary debt, not parent balance-sheet strength .
8That means the credit headline is structurally ring-fenced inside one project SPV rather than reflecting consolidated leverage comfort.
Union Budget language drives the merger narrative, while the filing avoids the word ‘timeline’ entirely.
8The catalyst is not a deal document, but a budget speech line that the board treats as a trigger.
Torrent Power adds a Rs 2,000 crore NCD programme, but the filing reads like a reaffirmation note.
8That means the credit signal is stability, while the incremental news is capacity to raise more long-term debt under an unchanged rating band.
ACME Solar Holdings Limited announced a 301 MW FDRE win.
8The bid requires delivery of 4 MWh per MW during non-solar hours with 70% monthly and 85% annual availability obligations.
Star Delta Transformers Limited’s ?53.3 crore revenue hides that profit fell 48% sequentially.
8It means the operational narrative is fragile because higher sales did not protect earnings momentum.
HBL Engineering Limited’s Q3 revenue fell 28% sequentially, turning last quarter’s surge into a fade.
8That means the headline narrative is not “momentum” but volatility, with earnings power swinging by quarter even as the company keeps reporting profits.
Quality Power Electrical Equipments Limited claims ‘no deviation’ while deferring capex and M&A timelines.
8That means compliance is being defined narrowly as “not changing objects,” while execution slippage is still occurring in the use-of-proceeds plan.
Ujaas Energy Limited tells exchanges price movement is ‘market-driven’ and denies any undisclosed event".
8 It states it has not withheld any material information that would have a bearing on the price or volume of its shares and attributes the movement to market conditions.
Sarda Energy & Minerals Limited’s Q3 profit fell 42% sequentially despite a ‘resilient’ press release tone.
8That means the core quarterly signal is contraction, not resilience, and the narrative is doing more work than the numbers

8This means the company’s accounting systems are being questioned at the same time it reports improved quarterly profitability.
"Solarworld Energy Solutions goes to Delhi High Court after SGEL contract suspension and conditional bank guarantee invocation".
8That means the counterparty relationship has moved from execution friction into a court-protection phase, which usually reflects a breakdown in commercial resolution.
Zelio E-Mobility denies any undisclosed trigger behind the share price move.
8It states there is no event or information, including any impending announcement, that may have a bearing on the price or volume movement.

8That means the market is being told the rating outcome is in flux, with a developing trigger that is not described in the exchange filing.
G R Infraprojects Limited’s profit rose, but the quarter’s tax bill jumped even faster.
8That means the post-tax outcome is materially more fragile than the pre-tax headline implies because a tax swing can erase a meaningful portion of net profit.
Bajel Projects Limited won a ?400 crore order .
8The scope is heavy on 765 kV line construction, which can turn into a right-of-way risk story
ACME Solar Holdings Limited highlights AA- rating for subsidiary debt, not parent balance-sheet strength .
8That means the credit headline is structurally ring-fenced inside one project SPV rather than reflecting consolidated leverage comfort.
Union Budget language drives the merger narrative, while the filing avoids the word ‘timeline’ entirely.
8The catalyst is not a deal document, but a budget speech line that the board treats as a trigger.
Torrent Power adds a Rs 2,000 crore NCD programme, but the filing reads like a reaffirmation note.
8That means the credit signal is stability, while the incremental news is capacity to raise more long-term debt under an unchanged rating band.
ACME Solar Holdings Limited announced a 301 MW FDRE win.
8The bid requires delivery of 4 MWh per MW during non-solar hours with 70% monthly and 85% annual availability obligations.
Star Delta Transformers Limited’s ?53.3 crore revenue hides that profit fell 48% sequentially.
8It means the operational narrative is fragile because higher sales did not protect earnings momentum.
HBL Engineering Limited’s Q3 revenue fell 28% sequentially, turning last quarter’s surge into a fade.
8That means the headline narrative is not “momentum” but volatility, with earnings power swinging by quarter even as the company keeps reporting profits.
Quality Power Electrical Equipments Limited claims ‘no deviation’ while deferring capex and M&A timelines.
8That means compliance is being defined narrowly as “not changing objects,” while execution slippage is still occurring in the use-of-proceeds plan.
Ujaas Energy Limited tells exchanges price movement is ‘market-driven’ and denies any undisclosed event".
8 It states it has not withheld any material information that would have a bearing on the price or volume of its shares and attributes the movement to market conditions.
Sarda Energy & Minerals Limited’s Q3 profit fell 42% sequentially despite a ‘resilient’ press release tone.
8That means the core quarterly signal is contraction, not resilience, and the narrative is doing more work than the numbers

Regulatory Updates: Part I
Feb 09:
1) GERC freezes wind PPA cost dispute pending Supreme Court curative verdict
8The case also highlights how curative proceedings at the national level can stall state-level regulatory enforcement.
2) Gujarat regulator shuts down capacitor billing plea on jurisdiction grounds
8The decision signals a tightening of procedural discipline and a rejection of attempts to convert regulatory forums into public-interest grievance platforms.
3) Wind industry body withdraws GERC connectivity challenge after new procedure approval
8For renewable developers, the spotlight now moves to how the new connectivity regime will be interpreted and contested in future forums.
4) GERC closes hybrid tariff petition after earlier framework already settled issue

Market Round-up
Feb 09:
1) Liquidity vanished on two venues as real-time hit the cap
8On 2026-02-07, real-time MCP touched Rs 10,000.00/MWh at 07:00 (T29), while two other venues printed zero/blank through the same blocks.
Inference: participation concentrated into one marketplace, turning early blocks into a thin-liquidity spike zone (price cap with no offsetting depth elsewhere).
Why it matters: when liquidity fragments, a single venue’s scarcity prints become the de-facto national reference, amplifying procurement risk for intraday balancing.
2) Day-ahead lost the plot against real-time before breakfast
8On 2026-02-07 at 06:45 (T28), real-time MCP surged to Rs 9,999.32/MWh while day-ahead at the same block was Rs 4,600.01/MWh (basis +Rs 5,399.31/MWh).
Inference: the shock is intraday-specific (not “priced in” day-ahead), consistent with a sudden balancing shortfall rather than a gradual demand trend.
Why it matters: a +Rs 5.40/kWh basis is a direct cost escalator for buyers leaning on RTM to correct schedules.
3) An afternoon price floor cracked despite normal day-ahead levels
8On 2026-02-08 at 15:45 (T64), real-time MCP collapsed to Rs 188.38/MWh (Rs 0.19/kWh) while day-ahead for the same block stayed at Rs 1,767.00/MWh.
Inference: the drop looks like a localized surplus pocket (or aggressive sell bidding) that RTM cleared but DAM did not reflect at the same granularity.
Why it matters: extreme intraday downside can destabilise dispatch incentives-good for opportunistic buyers, risky for flexible generators counting on shoulder-hour revenues.
4) Real-time prices fell when volumes rose-consistently, not occasionally
8Across 2026-02-06 to 2026-02-08, real-time MCP and real-time cleared volume moved inversely in the same blocks (lag 0 correlations: ρ≈-0.43, -0.52, -0.79 by day).
Inference: higher cleared volumes coincided with lower scarcity pricing, suggesting RTM tightness was driven by “thin” periods rather than uniformly high demand.
Why it matters: risk management should watch liquidity/participation as much as demand-thin blocks can be costlier than peak blocks.
5) Renewables carried the peak, but the system still leaned on balancing
8On 2026-02-07 (solar hours 07:00–17:00), max demand met was 235,957 MW at 09:43, with wind 4,507 MW (1.91%) and solar 57,834 MW (24.51%)-total VRE 62,340 MW (26.42%).
Inference: even with VRE >26% at peak, the market still showed severe intraday stress earlier that morning, pointing to timing/ramps rather than “not enough energy.”
Why it matters: policy focus shifts from adding MWh to ensuring flexible MW-otherwise volatility survives even on “good renewable” days.
6) Pumped storage turned net-pumping even with zero peak shortage flags
8For 2026-02-08, the PSP daily report shows Peak Shortage (MW) as 0, while the Schedule(MU) line contains negative entries (net pumping) alongside positive ones.
Inference: PSP was used for energy shifting/market economics (charging during softer blocks), not as an emergency shortage plug.
Why it matters: PSP behaviour can steepen intraday spreads-supporting low-price valleys and setting up sharper peaks when discharge is reserved.
7) North thermal missed the day’s program-hydro didn’t fully cushion it
8On 2026-02-05, Northern Region thermal generation was 776.60 MU vs program 970.79 MU, while hydro was 107.50 MU vs program 115.62 MU.
Inference: the thermal shortfall is large enough that any next-day scheduling reliance would push buyers toward intraday correction, raising exposure to RTM spikes.
Why it matters: when the base slips, balancing costs rise first-and they show up as volatile intraday MCP, not as a neat monthly adjustment.
8) Coal stress showed up as “zero cover” flags at a large station
8On 2026-02-07, a 1,320 MW station line shows PLF at 0% and “Stock vis-à-vis normative” printed as 0.0, with receipt and consumption also printed as 0.0 (flagged line item).
Inference: this looks like a non-running/constraint condition with coal logistics not flowing that day-exactly the kind of hidden fragility that can spill into short-notice balancing.
Why it matters: even isolated stoppages reduce system slack; the market then prices “surprise scarcity” into a handful of blocks at punitive rates.

Inference: participation concentrated into one marketplace, turning early blocks into a thin-liquidity spike zone (price cap with no offsetting depth elsewhere).
Why it matters: when liquidity fragments, a single venue’s scarcity prints become the de-facto national reference, amplifying procurement risk for intraday balancing.
2) Day-ahead lost the plot against real-time before breakfast
8On 2026-02-07 at 06:45 (T28), real-time MCP surged to Rs 9,999.32/MWh while day-ahead at the same block was Rs 4,600.01/MWh (basis +Rs 5,399.31/MWh).
Inference: the shock is intraday-specific (not “priced in” day-ahead), consistent with a sudden balancing shortfall rather than a gradual demand trend.
Why it matters: a +Rs 5.40/kWh basis is a direct cost escalator for buyers leaning on RTM to correct schedules.
3) An afternoon price floor cracked despite normal day-ahead levels
8On 2026-02-08 at 15:45 (T64), real-time MCP collapsed to Rs 188.38/MWh (Rs 0.19/kWh) while day-ahead for the same block stayed at Rs 1,767.00/MWh.
Inference: the drop looks like a localized surplus pocket (or aggressive sell bidding) that RTM cleared but DAM did not reflect at the same granularity.
Why it matters: extreme intraday downside can destabilise dispatch incentives-good for opportunistic buyers, risky for flexible generators counting on shoulder-hour revenues.
4) Real-time prices fell when volumes rose-consistently, not occasionally
8Across 2026-02-06 to 2026-02-08, real-time MCP and real-time cleared volume moved inversely in the same blocks (lag 0 correlations: ρ≈-0.43, -0.52, -0.79 by day).
Inference: higher cleared volumes coincided with lower scarcity pricing, suggesting RTM tightness was driven by “thin” periods rather than uniformly high demand.
Why it matters: risk management should watch liquidity/participation as much as demand-thin blocks can be costlier than peak blocks.
5) Renewables carried the peak, but the system still leaned on balancing
8On 2026-02-07 (solar hours 07:00–17:00), max demand met was 235,957 MW at 09:43, with wind 4,507 MW (1.91%) and solar 57,834 MW (24.51%)-total VRE 62,340 MW (26.42%).
Inference: even with VRE >26% at peak, the market still showed severe intraday stress earlier that morning, pointing to timing/ramps rather than “not enough energy.”
Why it matters: policy focus shifts from adding MWh to ensuring flexible MW-otherwise volatility survives even on “good renewable” days.
6) Pumped storage turned net-pumping even with zero peak shortage flags
8For 2026-02-08, the PSP daily report shows Peak Shortage (MW) as 0, while the Schedule(MU) line contains negative entries (net pumping) alongside positive ones.
Inference: PSP was used for energy shifting/market economics (charging during softer blocks), not as an emergency shortage plug.
Why it matters: PSP behaviour can steepen intraday spreads-supporting low-price valleys and setting up sharper peaks when discharge is reserved.
7) North thermal missed the day’s program-hydro didn’t fully cushion it
8On 2026-02-05, Northern Region thermal generation was 776.60 MU vs program 970.79 MU, while hydro was 107.50 MU vs program 115.62 MU.
Inference: the thermal shortfall is large enough that any next-day scheduling reliance would push buyers toward intraday correction, raising exposure to RTM spikes.
Why it matters: when the base slips, balancing costs rise first-and they show up as volatile intraday MCP, not as a neat monthly adjustment.
8) Coal stress showed up as “zero cover” flags at a large station
8On 2026-02-07, a 1,320 MW station line shows PLF at 0% and “Stock vis-à-vis normative” printed as 0.0, with receipt and consumption also printed as 0.0 (flagged line item).
Inference: this looks like a non-running/constraint condition with coal logistics not flowing that day-exactly the kind of hidden fragility that can spill into short-notice balancing.
Why it matters: even isolated stoppages reduce system slack; the market then prices “surprise scarcity” into a handful of blocks at punitive rates.

Miscellaneous Update: Part I
Feb 09:
1) India’s ISTS transmission losses ease as renewable-heavy daytime flows improve grid efficiency
8The most loss-intensive periods remain early-morning low-load hours and evening ramp windows, where directional stress and reactive flows typically rise.
2) Nighttime loss volatility remains structurally high
8Loss swings in late night blocks remain wide, often crossing 5%. This volatility suggests unstable low-load voltage and reactive conditions (R1)
3) Rajasthan dispatch stack shows coal dominance as gas and liquid units price out of the system
8But a regulatory revision in state sector tariffs has reshuffled merit positions, indicating that commercial decisions - not just fuel efficiency - are influencing dispatch order.
4) Rajasthan discom adopts sports performance pay incentives for employees
8Staff delivering standout performances at national and international competitions will now receive structured personal pay increments linked to their pay level.
5) HESCOM: Refunds ordered even as losses accumulate
8How did it end up doing so
6) CESC Mysuru: Large financial totals suggest settlement-style processing rather than routine billing
8Such scale typically aligns with staff settlements, arrear adjustments, or major financial reconciliations.
7) HVPNL: February payout locks in large cash outflow from state transmission utility
8Transmission operations remain unaffected, but treasury planning tightens.

Power Committee Updates
Feb 09:
1) North Eastern Grid: Planning to risk management
8The North Eastern region is entering a phase where operational discipline, funding clarity, and regulatory compliance will determine grid resilience more than asset creation alone.
2) Metering failures: The weakest link that won’t heal in the North East
8Despite years of discussion, SEM data gaps persist across multiple states. The 45-day ultimatum marks a rare escalation. Metering has quietly moved from a backend issue to a compliance red flag. Continued failure could undermine settlement credibility.
3) Why is India’s hydro generation losing its balancing power-literally
8Country’s clean flexibility resource is becoming unreliable just when it’s most needed.
4) Shutdowns everywhere, headroom nowhere: How transmission execution is colliding with a stressed southern grid
8What emerges is a pattern: national infrastructure projects, renewable evacuation lines, and deferred commissioning milestones are all competing for shutdown windows that the grid can no longer comfortably provide.
5) The shutdown economy in India’s power sector: When every transmission outage becomes a negotiation
8Repeated shutdown requests now resemble commercial negotiations rather than technical clearances. The OCC is weighing megawatts of lost ATC against months of delayed project execution. This is no longer outage planning - it is risk pricing. The Southern grid is effectively operating on borrowed margins.

Northern grid disturbances shift from equipment failures to inverter-driven instability between December and January
Feb 06:
8The most striking anomaly was a nearly 3.8 GW instantaneous RE generation loss in Rajasthan during a voltage dip and overvoltage cascade. For operators and regulators, the tension is no longer just equipment reliability, but dynamic stability in a grid with rapidly rising inverter-based generation.

Market Round-up
Feb 06:
1) Morning DAM blowout priced a scarcity premium long before RTM cleared it
8DAM MCP jumped to Rs 8.70/kWh at 07:30–07:45 (T31–T32), while RTM for the same blocks cleared at Rs 5.35/kWh and Rs 5.00/kWh.
Inference: The premium looks “forward” (DAM) rather than real-time (RTM): DAM purchase bids stayed far above sell bids through the spike window, signalling tight sell-side depth into the morning ramp.
Why it matters: a Rs 3.70/kWh DAM–RTM basis at T32 is pure forecasting cost for buyers who could have leaned on RTM.
2) DAM hit a hard regime break after 08:00; volatility was not “smooth”
8After the spike, DAM MCP dropped from Rs 6.25/kWh (08:00, T33) to Rs 3.94/kWh (08:45, T36) in under an hour.
Inference: This looks like a cleared-supply catch-up (sell side recovering) rather than demand collapse, because scheduled volumes stayed sizable while prices mean-reverted sharply.
Why it matters: it increases the value of intra-day re-optimisation; static DAM positions were punished on both sides of the break.
3) Real-time balancing stayed “heavy” all day even without an obvious shortage headline
8NLDC’s ancillary/SCUC daily sheet shows SCUC-Up scheduled 48,162 MWh and SCUC-Down scheduled −48,103 MWh on 2026-02-05.
Inference: Near-symmetric up/down energy points to continuous re-balancing (commitment + de-commitment) rather than one-direction scarcity.
Why it matters: this kind of churn typically amplifies RTM price sensitivity and raises balancing risk for states riding close to schedules.
4) HPX ASDAM printed “zero market” blocks — a liquidity signal, not a footnote
8HPX ASDAM shows 0.0000 MWh cleared across successive 15-minute blocks on 05/02/2026 (market effectively absent at block level).
Inference: With DAM/RTM price discovery happening elsewhere the same day, this looks like liquidity concentration risk: fewer venues meaningfully set short-term prices.
Why it matters: thin venues can’t absorb stress when one exchange tightens, raising systemic execution risk for participants.
5) PXIL IDAS showed bids but no cleared price/volume — a fragmentation warning
8PXIL’s IDAS volume profile lists sell bids (e.g., 104.50 MWh at 00:00–00:15) but shows MCV/Scheduled Volume/MCP.
Inference: This pattern is consistent with order-book presence without matchable counterparties (or a no-trade day for the product).
Why it matters: partial liquidity creates false comfort in “available” supply while forcing actual procurement into other, potentially costlier routes.
6) NER frequency compliance was weak on 2026-02-04 — 26% of time outside IEGC band
8NER FDI sheet reports frequency outside 49.9–50.05 Hz for 26.08% of the day (6.15 hours), with min 49.83 Hz and max 50.27 Hz.
Inference: The tail risk is not about average frequency (reported 50.01 Hz), but about time spent outside the band — a control quality issue.
Why it matters: sustained excursions increase deviation exposure and undermine confidence in “stable grid” claims built only on averages.
7) High scheduled drawal plus meaningful OD/UD clustered in a few big states
8NLDC PSP state table shows large drawal schedules alongside material OD/UD: Maharashtra 199.4 MU schedule with −2.9 MU OD/UD; Rajasthan 99.0 MU with −4.8 MU; Tamil Nadu 220.7 MU with +0.8 MU (all on 2026-02-05).
Inference: These are “high-throughput” states where small percentage errors convert into big absolute deviations, especially during ramp hours.
Why it matters: the same states are the first to transmit balancing stress into market prices and ancillary deployments.
8) DAM–RTM basis widening followed RTM moves with a 1-block lag (statistically, not rhetorically)
8Using the full 96-block MCP series on 2026-02-05, the DAM–RTM basis shows a 1-block lag correlation ~ρ=0.49 with RTM MCP (0–8 block scan), crossing your |ρ|≥0.35 flag.
Inference: RTM volatility appears to “pull” the basis wider in the next block more than it is purely simultaneous — consistent with buyers re-pricing forward exposure after seeing RTM.
Why it matters: procurement teams can’t treat DAM and RTM as independent levers intra-day; the basis is reactive and can snowball.

8DAM MCP jumped to Rs 8.70/kWh at 07:30–07:45 (T31–T32), while RTM for the same blocks cleared at Rs 5.35/kWh and Rs 5.00/kWh.
Inference: The premium looks “forward” (DAM) rather than real-time (RTM): DAM purchase bids stayed far above sell bids through the spike window, signalling tight sell-side depth into the morning ramp.
Why it matters: a Rs 3.70/kWh DAM–RTM basis at T32 is pure forecasting cost for buyers who could have leaned on RTM.
2) DAM hit a hard regime break after 08:00; volatility was not “smooth”
8After the spike, DAM MCP dropped from Rs 6.25/kWh (08:00, T33) to Rs 3.94/kWh (08:45, T36) in under an hour.
Inference: This looks like a cleared-supply catch-up (sell side recovering) rather than demand collapse, because scheduled volumes stayed sizable while prices mean-reverted sharply.
Why it matters: it increases the value of intra-day re-optimisation; static DAM positions were punished on both sides of the break.
3) Real-time balancing stayed “heavy” all day even without an obvious shortage headline
8NLDC’s ancillary/SCUC daily sheet shows SCUC-Up scheduled 48,162 MWh and SCUC-Down scheduled −48,103 MWh on 2026-02-05.
Inference: Near-symmetric up/down energy points to continuous re-balancing (commitment + de-commitment) rather than one-direction scarcity.
Why it matters: this kind of churn typically amplifies RTM price sensitivity and raises balancing risk for states riding close to schedules.
4) HPX ASDAM printed “zero market” blocks — a liquidity signal, not a footnote
8HPX ASDAM shows 0.0000 MWh cleared across successive 15-minute blocks on 05/02/2026 (market effectively absent at block level).
Inference: With DAM/RTM price discovery happening elsewhere the same day, this looks like liquidity concentration risk: fewer venues meaningfully set short-term prices.
Why it matters: thin venues can’t absorb stress when one exchange tightens, raising systemic execution risk for participants.
5) PXIL IDAS showed bids but no cleared price/volume — a fragmentation warning
8PXIL’s IDAS volume profile lists sell bids (e.g., 104.50 MWh at 00:00–00:15) but shows MCV/Scheduled Volume/MCP.
Inference: This pattern is consistent with order-book presence without matchable counterparties (or a no-trade day for the product).
Why it matters: partial liquidity creates false comfort in “available” supply while forcing actual procurement into other, potentially costlier routes.
6) NER frequency compliance was weak on 2026-02-04 — 26% of time outside IEGC band
8NER FDI sheet reports frequency outside 49.9–50.05 Hz for 26.08% of the day (6.15 hours), with min 49.83 Hz and max 50.27 Hz.
Inference: The tail risk is not about average frequency (reported 50.01 Hz), but about time spent outside the band — a control quality issue.
Why it matters: sustained excursions increase deviation exposure and undermine confidence in “stable grid” claims built only on averages.
7) High scheduled drawal plus meaningful OD/UD clustered in a few big states
8NLDC PSP state table shows large drawal schedules alongside material OD/UD: Maharashtra 199.4 MU schedule with −2.9 MU OD/UD; Rajasthan 99.0 MU with −4.8 MU; Tamil Nadu 220.7 MU with +0.8 MU (all on 2026-02-05).
Inference: These are “high-throughput” states where small percentage errors convert into big absolute deviations, especially during ramp hours.
Why it matters: the same states are the first to transmit balancing stress into market prices and ancillary deployments.
8) DAM–RTM basis widening followed RTM moves with a 1-block lag (statistically, not rhetorically)
8Using the full 96-block MCP series on 2026-02-05, the DAM–RTM basis shows a 1-block lag correlation ~ρ=0.49 with RTM MCP (0–8 block scan), crossing your |ρ|≥0.35 flag.
Inference: RTM volatility appears to “pull” the basis wider in the next block more than it is purely simultaneous — consistent with buyers re-pricing forward exposure after seeing RTM.
Why it matters: procurement teams can’t treat DAM and RTM as independent levers intra-day; the basis is reactive and can snowball.

Power Committee Updates
Feb 06:
1) NR’s deviation economics flipped in a week: the WR–NR rent collapsed-and Delhi quietly became the week’s biggest ‘discipline winner’
8This reads like a grid that tightened one set of deviations (especially inter-regional) while exposing a second-order truth: NR’s “discipline” is still entity-specific, not systemic-so the money just rotates to the next weakest participant.
2) Delhi’s reactive bill collapses, but the pool’s receivable stack grows-UP and NTPC tighten their grip on VAR money flow
8This fortnight reads like a grid whose reactive economics are tightening into a few large sinks and a handful of volatile payers, with Delhi’s swing the cleanest behavioural change on the payable side.
3) WR’s transmission “availability” story is being propped up by month-long deemed outages-while the real risk is drifting into weather, pollution, and asset-health failures
8The grid’s fragility shows up more sharply through environment-driven faults-kite thread marks, stubble-burning fly-ash induced faults, and temperature-linked equipment limitations-signalling that “externalities” are now operational variables.
4) January in East India closes with a split-screen incentive story: a few units mint “peak-eligible” value while legacy stations bleed negative eligibility and push the bill back onto beneficiaries
8The structural tension: the region’s incentive pool is being distorted by persistent off-peak negatives (seen repeatedly in totals and beneficiary rows), so the grid is implicitly rewarding a narrow slice of operational behaviour while penalising broad, recurring scheduling patterns
5) Recertified Eastern region data: APNRL’s DC story flips from “data correction risk” in Dec to “higher declaration, higher surrender” in Jan-buyers aren’t absorbing what’s being certified
8Net-net, this pack reads less like a generator performance note and more like a demand discipline and data-governance stress test-first through revision, then through under-absorption.

Miscellaneous Update: Part I
Feb 06:
1) POWERGRID collapses 17 transmission SPVs into two entities under MCA-approved merger
8Operationally, it signals a shift from fragmented SPV structures toward tighter portfolio aggregation. Regulators and lenders will now evaluate these assets under fewer but larger corporate shells.
2) Northern states gain central power share as India’s allocation pool expands modestly in January
8The pattern signals seasonal and regulatory rebalancing of central resources toward northern demand centres.
3) India’s winter peak climbs past 245 GW as northern demand drives seasonal system stress
8The combined data signals a grid entering a high-demand quarter with tightening regional balances but no nationwide deficit.
4) APGENCO extends key APPC engineering deputation to maintain procurement continuity
8It has formally extended the deputation of a mechanical engineering officer at the state power procurement wing, preventing a staffing gap at a sensitive operational node.
5) Temporary promotions at APGENCO tied to court outcomes and strict joining rules
8It has issued temporary promotion orders elevating four Deputy Executive Engineers to Executive Engineer rank while simultaneously shifting one senior officer through a transfer.
6) Maharashtra transmission utility moves to embed policy and planning expertise
8It has initiated the hiring of two high-level consultants to strengthen its internal analytical and planning capacity.
7) Rajasthan Roundup: Chhabra thermal plant reports broad EC compliance but flags partial safeguards
8AVVNL eases bond exit rule for staff joining government services
8) Delhi gas plant seeks tariff relief after PLF collapse despite high availability
8Fuel cost pressures and take-or-pay gas commitments have amplified the financial strain. Additional O&M burdens from emission-control burners and sewage treatment operations are also being claimed.

Regulatory Updates: Part I
Feb 06:
1) Karnataka regulator opens scrutiny window on utility performance costs
8Karnataka’s power regulator has triggered a statewide review cycle that could reshape how utility cost overruns translate into consumer tariffs.
2) Rising procurement costs and loss spike squeeze MPSEZ’s distribution margins in Q3
8The most striking shift is the T&D loss increase from 2.54% to 4.05%, signalling a sudden deterioration in network efficiency, and there are other striking issues as well.
3) TNERC orders high interest payout, clears short-term power buys
8Tamil Nadu’s power regulator has enforced financial discipline on delayed generator payments while simultaneously securing near-term power supply for the state grid.
4) Tamil Nadu regulator clears 1,500 MW medium-term power hedge
8Tamil Nadu’s power regulator has approved a significant expansion of medium-term power procurement, allowing the state utility to secure 1,500 MW of round-the-clock supply under competitive bidding. The decision adds 700 MW to an earlier 800 MW approval, consolidating both into a single five-year tender.
5) CERC trims Fatehabad asset base while locking in new five-year transmission tariffs
8A modest but notable capital adjustment was imposed through disallowance of excess initial spares, slightly reducing the regulatory asset value.
6) CERC moves to license major NR–WR grid strengthening corridor
8The project centers on a new 765 kV Prayagraj substation and multiple line integrations that reshape existing power flows across Uttar Pradesh and adjoining regions.
