NPL is a wholly owned subsidiary of LTPDL, and the transaction is subject to requisite regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.
NPL owns and operates a 1,400 MW (2 X 700 MW) supercritical coal-fired thermal power plant at Rajpura in Patiala district, Punjab. The supercritical plant, built on advanced Japanese technology, maintains sustained availability levels above 90%. Strategically located in a power-deficit region, the plant also supports potential ancillary revenue streams. Furthermore, existing infrastructure allows for seamless expansion of capacity, supporting future growth opportunities.
Upon completion of the acquisition, the company’s operational capacity will increase from around 5 GW to 6.4 GW. In addition, the company will gain NPL’s institutional expertise and decade-long technical capabilities, developed through exceptional implementation and operational excellence. This acquisition creates valuable synergies that will strengthen the company’s greenfield thermal power development strategy.
Torrent Power is an integrated utility engaged in the business of power generation, transmission and distribution with operations in the states of Gujarat, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh.
