This project was awarded following the introduction of Viability Gap Funding (VGF) support and an increase in capacity to 500 MW/1000 MWh from the initial 400 MW/800 MWh tender issued in October 2024.

H.G Infra Engineering secured 250 MW with a quoted tariff of Rs 225,985 ($2670.59) per MW per month. Kintech Synergy and Bhilwara Energy each secured 100 MW at tariffs of Rs 225,985 ($2670.59) and Rs 225,993 ($2670.68) per MW per month, respectively. Advait Infratech won 50 MW at a tariff of Rs 226,000 ($2670.76) per MW per month.

Under the revised tender, VGF is capped at Rs 2.7 million ($32,114) per MWh, or 30% of the project's capital cost, whichever is lower. Developers are required to submit a certificate verifying the capital cost within six months of the project's Commercial Operation Date (COD).

VGF disbursements will be made in five tranches: 10% at financial closure, 45% at COD, and the remaining 45% over the next three years, subject to certification by the Central Electricity Authority.
