A bench of the Andhra Pradesh High Court headed by the state’s chief justice directed state electricity distribution companies (discoms) in December 2019 to release an undisputed amount of ₹14.5 billion (US$204 million) owed to renewable generation companies (gencos) and clear all admitted liabilities.
The ruling came after renewable gencos including Tata Power, ACME Group and Mytrah challenged an order by a single judge of Andhra Pradesh High Court. The order had directed the state discoms to approach the state regulator, Andhra Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission, and seek a revision in the concluded tariff, and meanwhile directed interim payments at ₹2.44/MW to solar gencos and ₹2.43/MW to wind gencos until the final disposal of matters by the state regulator.
