The company has over the years diversified into the petrochemicals and power business besides growing its core business of finding hydrocarbons.
It has taken various initiatives for renewable energy power generation and already has 189 megawatt (MW) capacity, including wind and solar PV plants spread across various locations. With a vision to expand its business in renewable energy, the company had participated in the bidding process for acquisition of 100 per cent equity stake of PTC Energy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PTC India.
