The LoA formalises a long term power supply arrangement that will see the company allocate the contracted capacity to the state grid as per the award terms. The agreement follows the standard procurement process and sets out obligations on delivery timelines, scheduling and commercial settlement.

The subsidiary will procure and dispatch the contracted 558 MW capacity from its operational plants, adhering to grid codes and scheduling protocols. The arrangement is designed to provide a predictable supply band that can be integrated into the state power mix and contribute to meeting demand during peak and non peak periods. The LoA specifies the duration, capacity and commercial framework without disclosing start dates or tariff details.

Market participants will view the contract as a demonstration of the subsidiary's capacity to participate in long term state level supply arrangements.

The transaction aligns with the parent company's strategy to secure long term offtake avenues and to optimise utilisation of its generation assets. Execution of the contract will remain subject to customary conditions precedent and operational clearances from relevant authorities. The company will proceed with commissioning and commercial operations in accordance with the LoA timetable and regulatory requirements. Stakeholders will monitor implementation closely.
