Once the deal is completed and approvals are received, MCCPL will become a fully owned subsidiary of JSW Energy.
MCCPL operates a 300 MW thermal power plant located in Korba, Chhattisgarh. A major part of its capacity (195 MW) is tied up under a long-term power purchase agreement with Rajasthan discoms, with about 14 years of contract remaining. Another portion supplies power to Chhattisgarh discom at variable cost, while the remaining capacity is sold in the open market.
The plant has secured coal supply through long-term agreements under the SHAKTI scheme, ensuring fuel availability.
The deal values MCCPL at around ?1,410 crore, subject to final adjustments. The plant's location near JSW Energy's existing assets is expected to help improve operational efficiency and reduce costs.
