State-owned NTPC is likely to seek the board approval at its next meeting for entering into the revised Fuel Supply Agreement (FSA) with Coal India (CIL). The country's biggest power producer is waiting for the clarity on FSA model as the same was not discussed in its previously held board meeting on Friday, i.e., December 28, 2012.
The government had last week reported that most of the issues relating to FSAs have been resolved and power companies are likely to ink fuel supply pacts with CIL in a month's time. On December 17, the Prime Minister’s Office directed power companies to enter into Fuel supply pacts within a month, after November deadline for FSAs was missed, amid differences over various issues including coal quality. As of now also, only 33 of the total 87 power companies in the country have entered into FSA with CIL.
NTPC is the largest power generating company in the country. It has also diversified into hydro power, coal mining, power equipment manufacturing, oil & gas exploration, power trading & distribution.
