The first tranche of the Rs20tn package' mentioned by the Prime minister was announced today, comprising measures worth Rs6tn. This tranche included a Rs900bn loan to state discoms by govt-owned PFC and REC to pay off the genco dues. The loan will be provided against the Rs940bn receivables of the discoms. The loans will be secured against receivables, and additionally guaranteed by respective state govts. The liquidity will be infused within a couple of days by offering concessional loans to state electricity discoms, which would be 150 bps lower than the usual lending rates by the PFC and REC. while the loan rate would be concessional, it will vary from utility-to-utility depending...

22 April 2020 NTPC has met its target of 5.3GW of commercialization for FY20, marking the highest ever commercialization for the company in a single year (Exhibit 1). We note the recovery of RoE / fixed charges for these plants depends on NTPCs ability to operate and declare availability. Thus, the company is insulated from power demand conditions (which, given the current scenario, could lead to lower offtake from these plants). Muted power demand, coupled with production ramp-up at Coal Indias mines, has resulted in an increase in coal stocks at power plants. In 1H, availability at NTPCs plants was impacted by production issues at Coal Indias mines (Talcher and Korba coalfields). However, production at these mines has improved, leading to recovery in coal stocks at these plants (Exhibit 2). As per our interaction with NTPC, given the essential nature of the power generation business, the movement of coal through rail or road has not been a challenge.

FC recoveries of INR0.7b were largely driven by better availability at NTPCs plants, given production recovery at corresponding Coal Indias mines. On the other hand, the company had witnessed FC u/r of INR2.8b in the same quarter last year pertaining to Unchahar (which has now stabilized post the boiler blast) and the lack of coal availability at Kudgi and Mauda (non- NTPC booked late payment surcharge of INR4.2b (v/s INR0.9b in 3QFY19), given the change to accrual accounting and higher overdues amount.

On track for commercializing 5GW

Buy: NTPC Ltd.

Target

Motilal Oswal

23 January 2020 NTPCs commercialization target of ~5GW appears on track. PAF at NTPCs plants was impacted by coal production issues at Coal Indias mines (Talcher and Korba coal fields). We note that in FY19, u/r were largely pertaining to Unchahar (which has now stabilized post the boiler blast) and the lack of coal availability at its non-pit head plants (such as Kudgi and Mauda). This time around Talcher, Korba and Sipat pit head plants have largely seen issues on fuel availability. Thus, as production at corresponding Coal Indias mines recover, availability at these plants can be ramped up. Over Nov-Dec19, NTPCs plants within Korba coalfields (Sipat and Korba Stg. III) have reported PAF of 90-100%. ~5GW of capitalization for FY20 appears to be on track given the recent commissioning/commercialization. We believe fuel supply/availability at these plants can be ramped up (if operational issues at mines do not persist).

SCED implementation leading to savings

This was driven by an increase in generation from pit head (lower variable cost) plants in the northern and eastern regions of India; on the other hand, higher variable cost generation from the southern region CERC, in its order, has taken note of this and (1) extended its implementation up to end-FY20, and (2) set out a methodology for sharing of benefits accumulated in the pool. The CERC has directed that benefits within the SCED pool should be shared equally between the participating generators and DISCOMs (after compensation for part load operations of generators). The benefit for each generator would be in proportion to their share of SCED schedule for the time Our analysis suggests that NTPC is entitled to a net benefit of ~INR1b for the first three months of the pilot scheme (see As observed, PLF for NTPCs non- pit head plants (such as Simhadri, Kudgi, Solapur and Dadri) have declined.

21 November 2019 As part of the Indian governments strategic divestment program, the cabinet Details on the transaction value though are still awaited. According to our interaction with NTPC, the purchase value for these assets will be decided after an internal assessment. This process could take another 2-3 months. THDC (~1.5GW) and NEEPCO (~1.45GW) are broadly a hydro dominated portfolio, with combined hydro capacity of 2.3GW (refer exhibits 1/2). Acquisition of the same would increase NTPCs commercial capacity by ~5%. THDC operates 1.4GW of hydro plants and ~0.1GW of renewable capacity. According to tariff orders, regulated equity for its hydro portfolio stands at ~INR32b. Adj. profits were at INR8.5b for FY19, given CWIP and WC investments.
