1) HPDAM’s Week Ends With Zero Clearing Despite Heavy Offers
8HPDAM cleared 0.00 MWh over 27-11 to 04-12 while total sell bids topped ~9.97 lakh MWh.
Inference: Validation/buy-side gaps or block alignment issues kept hydro offers unmatched through the window.
Why it matters: Idle peaking flexibility leaves price stability and Rs revenue on the table in tight hours.

2) Weighted DAM Price Trails Point MCP, Signalling Dispersion
8On 2025-12-04, DAM MCP was Rs 4,461.10/MWh while weighted MCP printed Rs 4,235.18/MWh.
Inference: Deeper volumes cleared below the headline MCP, pointing to intra-curve price depth.
Why it matters: Buyers benchmarking only point MCP risk over-estimating delivered cost; use weighted prints.

3) RTM Shows Persistent Sell Surplus Yet Healthy Scheduling
8On 2025-12-04, RTM sell bids 262,501.03 MWh vs purchase bids 214,842.03 MWh; scheduled 130,110.06 MWh.
Inference: A clear offer cushion coexisted with solid cleared volumes, tempering intraday spikes.
Why it matters: Surplus supply narrows risk of extreme RTM prints, aiding short-term procurement discipline.

4) NER Import Corridor Sees A Clean Sheet On Violations
8System Reliability Index shows 0 violated blocks (0.00%) on the NER Import corridor on 2025-12-04.
Inference: No proxy hits implies unconstrained NER inflows to NEW, easing congestion premia.
Why it matters: Constraint-free operation reduces split risks and keeps exchange prices more uniform.

5) Agra Nodes Hold VDI At 0%, Tight Voltage Control
8Agra and Agra (Fatehabad) recorded VDI 0.00% with Max ~767 kV and Min ~767 kV / stable bands.
Inference: Reactive balance and network conditions kept the node well within IEGC voltage limits.
Why it matters: Low VDI reduces switching stress and improves equipment life and PQ (power quality).

6) Coal Feeding Failure Flags Chronic Outage At Raichur
8The DGR notes “COAL FEEDING SYSTEM FAILURE” at Raichur TPS Unit-1 (long-running entry).
Inference: Fuel-handling reliability limits can elongate outages and reduce SR’s domestic coal buffer.
Why it matters: Prolonged unit unavailability raises reliance on traded power or higher-cost ramping.

7) Simhadri Unit On Annual Overhaul Cuts SR Thermal Cushion
8Simhadri-1 (500 MW) is under boiler annual overhaul across the 03-12 report window.
Inference: Planned derate narrows SR’s on-bar margin during mid-day to evening transitions.
Why it matters: Less thermal headroom can push balancing volumes to exchanges or ancillary.

8) DAM Outruns RTM Scheduling By 59,451 MWh
8On 2025-12-04, DAM scheduled 189,561.06 MWh vs RTM 130,110.06 MWh; difference ~59,451 MWh.
Inference: Higher day-ahead locking reduced same-day balancing exposure for participants.
Why it matters: Front-loading volumes into DAM can stabilise procurement cost and reduce intraday risk.

1) RTM edges above DAM on average this week
8RTM’s weighted MCP averaged Rs 3653.18/MWh versus DAM’s Rs 3630.75/MWh across 2025-11-26 to 2025-12-03, a modest Rs 22.43/MWh premium.
Inference — short-tenor scarcity priced higher despite broader day-ahead liquidity, visible in similar scheduled volumes.
Why it matters — even a thin premium lifts balancing costs; at 1.14 TWh RTM cleared over the week, the premium implies a non-trivial Rs impact on short positions.

2) PXIL RTM repeatedly printed the price cap on small volumes
8PXIL RTM shows Rs 10000/MWh MCP on multiple days (e.g., 2025-12-01 to 2025-12-03) with cleared volumes ≤ 1131.25 MWh per day.
Inference — thin depth can pin prints at cap even when the main venue averages near Rs 3.65/kWh the same week.
Why it matters — participants leaning on alternate venues risk paying cap prints; cross-venue hedging needs tighter governance.

3) HPX RTM traded only twice and hit the cap both times
8HPX RTM cleared 168.75 MWh (2025-11-28) and 137.50 MWh (2025-12-01), both at Rs 10000/MWh; other days were zero.
Inference — sporadic participation plus low book depth creates cliff-edge pricing on the exchange.
Why it matters — operational buyers using multi-venue sourcing should expect episodic price spikes on low-liquidity days.

4) DAM tightened into month-start; weighted MCP rose by ~Rs 2.12/kWh in three days
8IEX DAM weighted MCP climbed from Rs 3874.05/MWh (2025-12-01) to Rs 4085.69/MWh (2025-12-03) (+Rs 211.64/MWh).
Inference — stronger early-December demand prints and tighter offers pushed up day-ahead averages.
Why it matters — portfolio costs into the new month rose even before balancing, nudging procurement budgets higher.

5) Hydro day-ahead (HPDAM) showed sellers with zero buyers all week
8IEX HPDAM posted purchase bids = 0 each day while sell bids ~1.22–1.25 lakh MWh, with zero clears (2025-11-26 to 2025-12-03).
Inference — structural absence of buy interest at posted water-linked prices kept the segment idle.
Why it matters — unrealised hydro flexibility in D-1 markets reduces options for shaping portfolios without resorting to RTM.

6) Coal stress deepened: capacity on the “critical stock” list jumped by ~2.40 GW in a day
8Plants flagged “critical stock” rose from 21,044 MW (2025-12-01) to 23,444 MW (2025-12-02); plant count 43 → 44; median stock days held at 0.8.
Inference — a large linkage-based station’s addition drove the capacity jump while system-wide replenishment lagged.
Why it matters — more baseload tied up with fragile stock narrows real-time flexibility and raises reliance on market purchases.

7) Two-thirds of “critical stock” units had ≤1 day of coal on 2025-12-02
833 of 44 flagged plants showed ≤1 day stock, representing ~15,236 MW of 23,444 MW on the list.
Inference — replenishment risk is concentrated; a small slippage can translate into multi-GW derates.
Why it matters — thin buffers at scale amplify procurement risk and can spill into higher MCPs in tight hours.

8) “Linkage” category drove the deterioration in coal criticality
8Within the 2025-12-02 critical list, capacity tagged “Linkage” = 6322.5 MW, up +2400 MW day-on-day; “Imported” stood at 6349.0 MW.
Inference — domestic linkage dependence, not imports, explained the fresh additions to the risk pool that day.
Why it matters — recovery hinges on linkage logistics; absent that, portfolios may lean harder on exchanges and bilateral top-ups.

8For two consecutive weeks in November, the Northern Region’s DSM accounts stopped looking like a routine settlement sheet and started reading like a stress test. Inter-regional links that usually hum quietly in the background suddenly dominated the cashflows. A set of Rajasthan-centric renewable clusters kept bleeding money despite repeated price signals. And Delhi – the political and commercial heart of the region – quietly flipped from DSM earner to payer just as volatility was peaking.

8The system-wide tension is clear: demand and sell interest have both softened, but the market is now being influenced disproportionately by a handful of RE-heavy states. For SLDCs and regulators, the month-on-month movement points to growing volatility in merchant RE behaviour as winter approaches.

8All-India SCED UP and DOWN volumes actually fell by about 9–14% month-on-month, yet generator shortfall below minimum technical load jumped from roughly 79,000 MWh to nearly 1.11 lakh MWh. The tension for system operators and regulators is clear: even with moderated redispatch volumes, the architecture of MTL-through-SCED can amplify cost reallocation when requisitions fall short of technical minimums, especially in regions dominated by inflexible coal capacity.
