The total project cost is estimated at Rs 12.42 bn and is proposed to be funded at a debt to equity ratio of 75:25, with the sanctioned term loan constituting the debt component of the financing. The facility carries a door-to-door tenor of 20 years and one month, including an implementation period of one year four months and a moratorium period of one year.

Company leadership said the sanction represents an important milestone and reflects strong confidence in the group's execution capabilities and long-term strategy in the renewable energy sector. Access to long-term project financing was identified as a critical enabler for scaling clean energy infrastructure and the facility is expected to support timely project delivery. The investment will be used to accelerate growth of the renewable energy portfolio and to reinforce stable annuity revenues.

Established in 1994 by Dr Faruk G. Patel, the group has developed a diversified portfolio and a reputation as a partner for organisations seeking to reduce carbon footprints.
