NTPC's reply to clarification sought :
We would like to mention that units at NTPC-Kaniha continued to generate above 92% PLF during the initial 5 days of stir at MCL mines. Thereafter generation was slowly ramped down at plant since 17 February. One unit of 500 MW had to be stopped but was put back in service on 22 February after resumption of coal supplies from the mines. Now all the units are operating above 92% PLF.
It is pertinent to mention that NTPC on standalone and group basis has commercial capacity of 44815 MW and 51956 MW respectively. Thus considering the scale of the operations of the company, the above media report has no material impact on the company.
