Click on Reports for more Details
8POWERGRID’s storage proposal has brought a basic commercial question before CERC: who is buying the charging electricity, selling the output and retaining the proceeds? The regulator has asked for that transaction model and its legal basis before the proposal moves further. Details
8Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh were over-drawing during a low-frequency episode, but the reasons extended beyond a simple shortage of installed capacity. The western grid review records thermal restart timing, weather-driven demand changes and linked hydro constraints behind the states’ response. Details
8Repeated flooding at Champa has moved the issue beyond a one-off restoration exercise. The latest review records generation and transmission effects despite earlier remedies, while the longer-term answer remains entangled with external drainage responsibilities and equipment design. Details
8A transmission line interrupted for a VVIP helipad in September 2024 remained unresolved in the latest western-region review. Its operator now says the outage is affecting project availability and incentives, while restoration still depends on payment, land-access and clearance issues. Details
8IEX’s day-ahead weighted price recovered sharply for Aug 31, 2026 after the previous day’s fall, but the exchange cleared less energy. Rising purchase bids and falling sell bids changed the auction balance without translating into higher traded volume. Details
8Adani’s claim for reactive-power equipment costs faces a question that goes beyond the size of the bill: what changed legally, and what was already required? CERC has asked for that distinction before deciding claims across three projects totalling 417 MW. Details
8Haryana’s transmission utility has not won a general escape from its declining loss targets. The regulator has instead kept any relief tied to audited annual facts, after the company’s own historical performance undercut an absolute claim that losses below 2% were infeasible. Details
8Haryana has withdrawn approval to procure 96 MW from Dikchu after years without an agreed PPA. The regulator also found that the procurement framework lacked the security provisions needed to hold a supplier to a capacity commitment. Details
8A proposed Rs 55 crore transformer at Talegaon is being tested against a demand increase that could nearly double the station’s loading. But another substation due in March 2027 may alter the need, leaving the investment dependent on a fuller network study. Details
8Two renewable-evacuation schemes at Solapur have exposed a mismatch between new connection-bay ratings and adjoining substation equipment. Proposed upgrades total about Rs 4.68 crore before GST, but the committee discussion leaves both approval and responsibility unresolved. Details
8SECI wants an already operating storage asset for a one-year contract, with up to 485 cycles and significant performance deductions. Its tender pairs a fixed monthly capacity payment with strict efficiency and availability obligations, while the standard agreement excludes contractual change-in-law relief. Details
8Meghalaya’s proposed service standards would give a rural utility up to 96 hours to restore certain line and transformer failures, against much shorter urban deadlines. Missing those particular standards would attract Rs 50 per default, while other service failures would generate daily compensation. Details
8APSPDCL’s first-quarter accounts show a much wider loss measure once collections are included. The gap is not evidence that a quarter of its electricity disappeared: it reflects the combined effect of billed-energy shortfalls and money collected against billing. Details
8Punjab’s proposed 250 MW solar purchase faces a broader price test than a comparison with other solar bids. The regulator has also asked the state utility to show solar-hour exchange prices and the prices realised from its own power sales before the procurement case is decided. Details
8Borosil Renewables secured shareholder approval for Ashok Jain’s FY27 remuneration even though a majority of the public institutional votes cast opposed it. The result shows how strongly an overwhelming overall approval can differ from the position of a particular shareholder category. Details
8Repeated faults on the Vadodara–Lakadia transmission line have put a much larger replacement job on the agenda. The operator says nearly 43,000 installed insulators need attention on a corridor expected to carry increasing renewable output, even after an earlier faulty batch was replaced. Details
8Uttar Pradesh utilities have completed refunds to more than 92,000 consumers over smart-meter connection charges. The regulator has also stopped fresh keypad-meter installations, but the next requirement is a replacement roadmap—not evidence that the old devices have already been removed. Details
8Renewable generators in Haryana have won a less cumbersome route to banking approvals, including concurrent processing and tighter limits on extra documentation. The relief has a firm boundary: it does not turn previously lapsed energy or disputed historical settlements into fresh entitlements. Details
8A 1 MW canal-based hydrokinetic pilot has secured a 40-year tariff approval, but not a unanimous one. CERC’s majority accepted the procurement despite the absence of technology-specific bidding guidelines; its dissenting member challenged the legal route, tender scrutiny and duration of the pilot arrangement. Details
8Gujarat’s renewable curtailment on Jul 28, 2026 coincided with net market purchases and substantial under-drawal, according to the Western Regional Load Despatch Centre. The state attributed the episode to extreme-weather demand swings and the timing of thermal and renewable recovery. Details
8New wind and solar projects will have to price a different imbalance-settlement exposure into their bids and operating plans. CERC has adopted general-seller treatment for specified future projects despite renewable-industry objections, while leaving an important pooled-project implementation question for a separate procedure.

8SECI's Ramagiri Wind Tender Extends 32 Days But Leaves the Portal Schedule Unsynchronised SECI's 45.6 MW ISTS-connected wind EPC package moved its bid deadline from 17 August to 18 September 2026, but the displayed document-procurement closure and tender-opening dates remain frozen at their original mid-August positions — creating three conflicting schedule signals on the same portal page. A Rs 8.4368 crore EMD locks in serious bidders even as turbine configuration, evacuation scope and performance guarantees remain undisclosed.

8NHPC's Link-3 Barrage Tender Raises Its Estimate 2.1% While Loosening Gate Qualification NHPC's Rs 2,301.20 crore Himachal Pradesh package increased its cost estimate and correspondingly raised turnover and bid-capacity thresholds, even as it simultaneously cut the vertical-lift-gate experience requirement by more than half and deleted a TRCM credential entirely. Eight deadline extensions totaling 110 days accompanied a shift from NATM to DBM tunneling terminology and a barrage-quantity rebalancing that favors concrete-intensive contractors over pure excavation specialists.

8JdVVNL's TNTW-796 Tender Swaps Its Own Geography Mid-Procurement JdVVNL's Rs 120.01 crore RDSS package originally assigned Bikaner's DD-I, DD-II and Khajuwala divisions to TNTW-796 in its NIT and first corrigendum, but the revised SBD, portal entry and BOQ now attribute Dungargarh and Nokha to the same tender number — with no explicit clause recording the swap. A 90.7% supply-weighted cost structure sits uneasily against an anti-front-loading rule that penalizes exactly that kind of allocation.

8NTPC's Pudimadaka WTP-GIS Tender Lets Old Contracts Inflate Their Way Into Qualification NTPC's lump-sum turnkey package bundling a water treatment plant, firefighting system and substation now allows bidders to escalate historical reference-contract values by 5% per year — potentially qualifying firms whose past projects fell short at nominal prices. The amendment doesn't clarify which of three possible reference dates (completion, execution, or commissioning) controls the calculation.

8GETCO's 495-Transformer Tender States Two Different Estimates 36.6% Apart GETCO's Rs 1,386.84 crore bulk transformer procurement lists that figure in its summary table while ITB Clause 1 independently states Rs 879.62 crore — a Rs 507.23 crore discrepancy that directly affects the mandatory 10% turnover-qualification threshold. Item-wise reverse bidding with pre-auction elimination of the highest qualified bidders adds another layer of price compression before contracts are even split among suppliers.

8APTRANSCO's MPLS-TP Network Tender Corrects a Zero-Value Estimate to Rs 139.44 Crore APTRANSCO's substation communication-network corrigendum fixed an originally blank estimated contract value while nearly tripling bid security from Rs 3 crore to Rs 8.79 crore, and introduced a turnkey EPC-plus-single-OEM route with joint and several liability between contractor and manufacturer. The payment clause still references 421 units even though the corrected total procurement — including mandatory spares — is 463.

8JdVVNL's TNTW-797 Tender Times Its Financial Openings by Which Package Bids Highest First JdVVNL's Rs 91.88 crore Bikaner package is one of eight RDSS tenders opened in descending order of estimated value, with each bidder's capacity reassessed after every prior L1 outcome — meaning winning one package can silently disqualify a bidder from financial consideration on another. A two-package participation ceiling includes an exception that preserves original bidding capacity if an earlier L1 result would otherwise push a bidder over the limit.

8NTPC's Darlipali Water-Ash Package Awards at an 11% Spread With Wildly Different Cost Allocations NTPC's Rs 261.71 crore award to Zuberi Engineering for Darlipali's make-up water and ash-disposal system beat the second-place bidder by 11.0%, but the real story sits in the BOQ line items — one competitor allocated just Rs 31 lakh to local transportation against the winner's Rs 11.19 crore, revealing radically different cost-loading strategies behind similar headline totals.

8NTPC's Mouda Ash Transport Tender Lets the Client Cut Volume to Zero With No Compensation NTPC's Rs 83.17 crore, 926,575-tonne ash-haulage package permits contract quantity reduction of up to 100% while explicitly excluding idle-equipment claims — meaning a contractor mobilizing a full fleet within 15 days could see the entire volume disappear. A bid more than 10% below NTPC's estimate triggers additional security equal to half the shortfall, discouraging aggressive undercutting on a package where GeM says "no arbitration" while the incorporated SCC names Delhi as the arbitration seat.

8NTPC's Lara Ash Tender Makes Bidders Prove They Own a Dump Site Before Opening Price Bids NTPC's corrigendum for its Lara ash-disposal package converts an existing site-control requirement into a hard techno-commercial gate — bidders must now formally declare ownership or a tie-up with an abandoned quarry or low-lying area before their price bid can even be opened. A 30-day post-award deadline for securing Gram Panchayat, Mining Department and pollution-board approvals treats any delay as contractor default, regardless of whether the delay originates with the authorities themselves.

8WCL's Bhatadi Overburden Tender Sets Output Targets Without Fixing Fleet Size WCL's Rs 1,307.45 crore, 72-month overburden removal package at Chandrapur specifies minimum daily production of 52,103 CUM in dry season and 20,841 CUM during monsoon but leaves the actual number of excavators and tippers entirely to the contractor — an output-based structure that excludes idle-equipment claims entirely. A one-week bid extension left the diesel-price-variation base date frozen at the original deadline, meaning the extra preparation time carries no corresponding escalation benefit.

8Mahagenco's Parli Fly Ash Sale Reviews Its "Three-Year" Contract Every Single Year Mahagenco's fly-ash offtake tender for Parli TPS advertises a three-year term but explicitly subjects it to annual review with continuation left entirely to the generator's discretion — meaning bidders committing to seven-year silo leases and monthly advance payments have no guaranteed multi-year revenue in return. A separate clause imports unrelated Nashik TPS litigation outcomes as grounds to amend or cancel this Parli-specific agreement.

8CCL's Chandragupta Coal Haulage Tender Leaves Zero Volume Cushion Over Two Years CCL's Rs 284.12 crore, 730-day coal transport package sets a daily target of exactly 12,000 tonnes that multiplies precisely to the full 87.60 lakh tonne contract quantity — leaving no buffer for disruption before shortfall penalties or termination become live risks. The GeM portal states no performance bank guarantee is required while the incorporated SLA mandates 5% security plus 3% retention, and a specimen work order banning all escalation contradicts the same document's monthly diesel-adjustment formula.

8GUVNL's 1,000 MW Battery Storage Tender Has a Security Clause With Nothing In It GUVNL's Rs 1,000 MW/4,000 MWh BESS procurement titles Clause 20 "Payment Security" but both its subclauses are marked "Not Used," leaving buyer-side payment protection entirely undefined despite demanding Rs 25 lakh/MW in developer-side PBG. A required 50-100 MW dispatch-group architecture doesn't obviously accommodate the tender's own 65 MW minimum bid size.

8GUVNL's Firm Renewable Power Tender Lets the Buyer Move Peak Hours Every Year GUVNL's 500 MW FDRE procurement replaced fixed 6-9am and 4-8pm delivery windows with movable bands — any three hours between 5-10am and any four hours between 4pm-midnight — reset annually at GUVNL's discretion, forcing developers to design storage for the worst-case combination rather than a known schedule. A revised third-party-sale penalty now uses whichever is higher between contract-tariff value and actual market revenue, closing a pricing loophole while sharpening downside risk for excess-power sales. Details
8UJVN's Lakhwar Hydro-Mechanical Design Tender Sets 20 BOQ Lines Against a 23-Item Scope UJVN's Rs 2.70 crore consultancy for pre-EPC design of Lakhwar's gates, penstocks and SCADA carries a price schedule that omits standalone billing for tender preparation and revised cost estimation — outputs Appendix III explicitly treats as separately payable. The same document simultaneously requires 120-day and six-month bid validity, and bars price adjustment in one clause while permitting it in another.

8TGGENCO's Naini-Yadadri Coal Logistics Tender Can't Decide If It's Moving 3 or 6 Million Tonnes TGGENCO's Rs 21 crore-EMD road-rail coal transport package states "3.0 million tonnes per annum for two years" in one clause and "approximately 3.0 million tonnes across two years" in another — a contradiction that could double or halve the real contracted volume. An exclusive-siding requirement demanding prior government-utility operating history, combined with a consortium ban, narrows the field to firms already embedded in the Khurda Road Division's coal network.

8ECL's RailTel Connectivity Award Closes 6.3% Above Its Own Displayed L1 Offer ECL's single-source, five-year Rs 145.47 crore managed-connectivity contract with RailTel shows a displayed offer of Rs 136.86 crore against an executed contract value Rs 8.61 crore higher — with no reconciliation supplied and no competing bid to benchmark against. GeM marks both EMD and ePBG as "No" even as the underlying conditions of contract require 5% performance security and 3% running-bill retention.

8UJVN's Second Lakhwar Design Tender Repeats the Same Radial-Gate Threshold Contradiction This companion filing on UJVN's hydro-mechanical design consultancy shows qualification clause 1.4.1(B)(iii) stating a 40% experience threshold while assigning it a rupee figure equal to 80% of the estimate — a discrepancy that could exclude or admit very different bidder pools depending on which figure controls. The tender also retains JV application forms despite explicitly barring joint-venture participation.

8NTPC REL's Nokhra Solar Tender Posts a Corrigendum 37 Minutes After Its Own Deadline NTPC Renewable Energy's 300 MW solar EPC package shows its first corrigendum timestamped at 15:37 on 22 June — just after the original 15:00 submission deadline on the same day — before seven total corrigenda and five addenda stretched the closing date by 60 days. A Rs 20 crore EMD locks in serious bidders even as land, evacuation and performance-guarantee terms remain undisclosed in the notice.

8NTPC's Farakka Pipeline-Bridge Assessment Is a Competitive Tender Wrapped Around a Named Consultant NTPC's structural-diagnostics assignment for ash-slurry pipeline bridges repeatedly identifies CSIR-SERC as the executing agency throughout its scope and payment clauses, despite running as a domestic competitive bid — and pays the entire preliminary-inspection fee in advance with no bank guarantee, no LD and no defect liability.

8WBSETCL's 22-Unit Transformer Tender Rebalances Delivery Without Extending Its Deadline WBSETCL's addendum cut the first delivery tranche from five transformers to three while pushing it 30 days later, keeping the 510-day completion date fixed — meaning later batches now carry a steeper production ramp. A pre-declared 14:8 split lets a second supplier win a share of the order, but only by matching the L1 price exactly.

8NHPC's Sawalkot Dam Tender Raises Its Estimate 5.6% and Moves Its Deadline 171 Days NHPC's Rs 5,416.94 crore Lot-1 package for the Sawalkot hydroelectric project quietly changed the plant's stated capacity from 1856 MW to 1800 MW mid-procurement while increasing turnover, working-capital and bid-capacity thresholds in step with the higher estimate. Thirty-four of 121 technical drawings were revised after original issue, and two separate documents both bear the label "Corrigendum No. 3."

8AEGCL's Umrangshu Financing EOI Attaches the Wrong Project's Supporting Documents AEGCL's EOI seeking a Rs 554 crore term loan for its 400/132 kV Umrangshu substation includes a prudential-norm attachment that actually belongs to an unrelated APDCL transformer-augmentation scheme, while the tender reference number itself alternates between "Tech-26" and "Tech-28" across different pages of the same notice.

8TNPGCL's North Chennai FGD Tender Keeps Extending a Procurement Its Own Notes Say Should Be Scrapped TNPGCL's seawater-FGD EPC package for two 600 MW units has moved its bid opening from April to August 2026 — a 143-day drift — even though an internal administrative note explicitly states that floated tenders "shall be revisited and fresh tenders shall be floated" after committee approval. The unchanged 24-month execution clock and deleted-escalation clause mean bidders keep refreshing offers for a process that may not survive in its current form.

8HPPTCL's World Bank Transformer Tender Ships With a Hidden Pricing Sheet From an Older Contract HPPTCL's ten-transformer procurement for Paonta Sahib, Kala Amb and Kunihar contains concealed spreadsheet tabs carrying historical rates and the name of a different contractor from an earlier turnkey package — a document-integrity failure sitting alongside an unresolved conflict over whether the current contractor's scope includes erection and commissioning or only supervision.

8BHEL's Darlipali Ash Handling Tender Locks Payment to Where Bidders Put Their Money BHEL's ash-handling EPC package for NTPC Darlipali penalizes bidders who price installation below 10% or civil work outside a 30-50% band by withholding that portion, non-interest-bearing, until physical milestones catch up — while a completeness clause makes any unlisted-but-necessary item the contractor's cost regardless of BOQ coverage.

8BHEL's Companion Darlipali Ash Tender Extends Three Times While Its Risk Stack Compounds A second BHEL filing for the same Darlipali ash-handling package shows three deadline extensions totaling 21 days against an unchanged 34-month delivery clock, with functional LD reaching 12% of contract price stacked atop a separate 5% delay-LD ceiling and layered security deposits — a cumulative exposure that may exceed what any single clause suggests.

8RECPDCL's Apta 765 kV Substation Tender Narrows to Two Bidders After a Documentation Rejection RECPDCL's Maharashtra transmission tender for the 765/400/220 kV Apta substation excluded Shivalaya Construction for failing to submit requested documents within the evaluation window — leaving only Adani Energy Solutions and Resonia to compete in a process that has already drifted 191 days past its original qualification-announcement date.

8SECI's One-Year Battery Storage Tender Threatens to Zero Out a Month's Entire Payment SECI's short-term 50 MW/100 MWh storage procurement requires an already-commissioned asset and imposes a sliding penalty scale where round-trip efficiency below 70% in any month eliminates that month's capacity payment entirely — on top of standard availability damages — while missing the 1 November 2026 start date triggers full PBG encashment and termination.

8SECI's NIWE Rooftop Tender Buries Its Core Technical Spec in a Separately Attached Annexure SECI's 100 kW hybrid rooftop replacement at NIWE's Chennai campus — requiring dismantling the existing plant and achieving seamless grid-to-island transition — defers the actual storage sizing, control architecture and performance-test methodology to an Annexure-B that isn't included in the main RfP, making bid comparability impossible without that missing document.

8POWERGRID's 765 kV Reactor Award Lands 11.3% Below Estimate With Freight Costs Still Unset POWERGRID's Rs 166.74 crore award to CG Power for 15 single-phase 765 kV reactors came in well under the Rs 187.90 crore indicative benchmark, but freight and insurance charges remain unpriced pending destination confirmation — meaning the apparent discount doesn't yet reflect the full delivered cost.

8POWERGRID's Bushing Tender Extended Ten Times Yet Still Contains Conflicting Delivery Dates POWERGRID's Rs 18.144 crore award to Hitachi Energy for 48 EHV bushings moved its closing date across ten separate extensions spanning 71 days while simultaneously cutting turnover and liquidity qualification thresholds by 25% each — yet the final award record still shows an 18-month consignee-table deadline alongside a corrigendum-amended 24-month schedule that were never formally reconciled.
