NTPC has successfully completed the acquisition of Sinnar Thermal Power Limited (STPL) on February 24, 2026, through a consortium with Maharashtra State Power Generation Company Limited (MAHAGENCO), marking a significant expansion of the state-owned power giant's generation capacity.

NCLT Approval and Deal Completion

The acquisition was completed following the approval of a resolution plan by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT). STPL was undergoing Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016 (IBC) when the consortium successfully acquired the company through the established legal framework.

Plant Specifications and Capacity Enhancement

STLP owns a coal-based thermal power plant with 5X270 MW units, totaling 1,350 MW capacity, located at Sinnar, Nashik, Maharashtra. Following the successful completion of this acquisition, NTPC's total installed capacity has reached 88,132 MW, while the commercial capacity stands at 87,052 MW.

Strategic Significance

The acquisition of Sinnar Thermal Power Limited represents NTPC's ongoing strategy to expand its thermal power portfolio through targeted acquisitions of distressed assets. The consortium approach with MAHAGENCO demonstrates effective collaboration between central and state power generation companies to optimize asset utilization.

This transaction underscores NTPC's ability to successfully navigate complex acquisition processes, including securing necessary regulatory approvals through established legal frameworks such as NCLT resolution plans under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code.
