India: AP High Court’s Order to Quash the 6.4 GW Solar Tender Suspended

The larger bench headed by the Chief Justice of the High Court of Andhra Pradesh has suspended the earlier order passed by the single-judge bench quashing the request for selection (RfS) and the draft power purchase agreements (PPAs) issued by the Andhra Pradesh Green Energy Corporation Limited (APGECL) for 6.4 GW of solar projects, according to a legal source.

 

The matter has been posted for further hearing on August 16, 2021.

 

Earlier, in June this year, the High Court of Andhra Pradesh had upheld the petition filed by Tata Power Energy Limited and had quashed the RfS and the draft PPAs issued by the Andhra Pradesh Green Energy Corporation. The suspension order issued now implies that the auction is still active though the PPAs may not be signed until the matter is completely settled.
