As per the postal ballot notice, shareholders’ approval have been sought for infusion of up to Rs 1,040 crore in Lalitpur Power Generation Company (LGPCL) and another Rs 200 crore in Bajaj Energy.

The company has formed a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) - Lalitpur Power Generation Company (LPGCL) - to develop 1,980MW thermal project at Lalitpur in Uttar Pradesh at a cost of Rs 11,848 crore, of which Rs 8,886 crore to be funded via debt.
