Vikram Solar Limited has secured an order to supply 378.75 MW of high-efficiency N-TOPCon solar modules to Indian Oil NTPC Green Energy Private Limited (INGEL) for a utility-scale project in Gujarat. The order is part of a 600 MW project being developed near Nakhatrana in the Kutch district and represents the company's first engagement with INGEL. The company will supply advanced modules designed for enhanced performance and reliability in utility-scale installations.

Under the contract the company will begin deliveries in fiscal year 2026 and complete supply within 180 days under the specified timelines. The modules are intended to improve energy yield and operational stability in the project and have been engineered for utility conditions in the region. Project execution will be coordinated with the joint venture partners and local stakeholders to meet commissioning schedules.

This engagement reinforces Gujarat as a strategic renewable energy hub supported by favourable policy and infrastructure. Vikram Solar emphasises its manufacturing strength and track record as it seeks to support large-scale deployments; the company reports cumulative production capacity of nine point five GW and an international presence in 39 countries. The firm has established a pan-India network with more than 105 authorised distributors, more than 435 dealers and 77 system integrators, which the company cites as key to delivery and aftercare.

The order win highlights the company's role in India's clean energy transition and its capability to deploy N-TOPCon technology at scale. The company views the supply contract as the beginning of a longer collaboration with INGEL and as an opportunity to strengthen its footprint in the state. Delivery commencement in fiscal year 2026 will be followed by staged shipments to align with project milestones.
