NTPC serves notices to 6 states, 2 UTs for non-payment of dues

08 Jan 2021 Evaluate

NTPC has served notices to six states and two Union Territories for non-payment of dues. The company has also made it clear that it will be forced to shut-off or restrict power supply if they fail to clear their dues. The states include Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Sikkim and Telangana, while the Union Territories (UTs) are Jammu and Kashmir and Puducherry. 

The company is trying to put pressure on all those discoms (distribution companies) which have exceeded the time limit for making payment of dues.  As a first step, letters of credit are being invoked. It is pertinent to note that if letters of credit are not maintained, discoms cannot schedule power.

NTPC is the largest power utility company in India and has presence in Coal, Gas, Solar PV, Hydro and Wind Power Generation and Coal Mining.
