The Commission noted that it was Tata Power Company that had participated in the bid and was declared successful. However, as per the present agreement, Tata Power Company wanted to transfer all obligations under the PPA to TP Saurya. During the second hearing held on June 8, 2021, the Commission clarified that Tata Power Company, as the successful bidder, had agreed to supply 110 MW solar power to KSEB as per the bid. Therefore, it could not be absolved from its obligations under the PPA, which is to be signed by TP Saurya on behalf of Tata Power Company. The Commission asked Tata Power Company to make amendments to the agreement with TP Saurya.
