 -3-

The above Bithnok and Barsingsar Extn. Power Projects have been put on
hold based on the communication received from Govt. of Rajasthan and
Rajasthan Discoms that they are not in a position to buy power from these
projects. This issue has been deliberated at the level of Committee of
Secretaries (CoS) under the Chairmanship of Cabinet Secretary,
Government of India and the COS has suggested for exploring the possibility
of reduction in the power tariff taking into accounts on its viability. EPC
contractor has responded with certain conditions. In the letter dated: 8th
February 2019 addressed to Principal Secretary, Government of Rajasthan,
NLCIL has requested way forward whether to go for retendering of the project
adopting least cost alternative technologies in power plant & Mine or
continuation of project with the existing EPC contract, as the compensation is
payable on both situations. The delay in decision on way forward from GoR
may lead to further more claims from EPC contractor. MD/RVUNL in its letter
dated: 15th February 2019 to NLCIL had requested to depute concern officials
to make a detailed presentation on various options and their cost implications
for which NLCIL is planning to make a presentation. A meeting with RUVNL
was held on 8th March 2019. Since NLC India Limited is not able to make the
contractor agree for the project cost considered while offering reduced tariff,
hence, MoC may please recommend to Cabinet Secretary to advise GoR to
compensate NLC India Limited for loss in accordance with the spirit of PPA.

 Solar Power Projects at Neyveli & Tamil Nadu: NLC India Limited has
also completed installation of solar power projects of 10MW Solar Power
Plant at Neyveli in September 2015 and 130 MW Solar Power Plant at
