The Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) has granted a significant 5-year extension for power supply from Tata Power's Trombay units. This regulatory approval ensures the continuity of electricity provision, underscoring the importance of stable and reliable power sources in the region.

The decision by MERC to extend the power supply agreement with Tata Power's Trombay units is expected to contribute to the seamless availability of electricity, supporting the energy needs of the region. This move aligns with the commission's commitment to fostering a robust and sustainable power infrastructure in Maharashtra.
