Undertaking by NTPC Limited Investors are advised to read the risk factors carefully before taking an investment decision in this issue. For taking an investment decision, investors must rely on their own examination of NTPC Limited and the offer including the risks involved. The securities have not been recommended or approved by the any regulatory authority in India, including the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) nor does SEBI guarantee the accuracy or adequacy of this document. Specific attention of investors is invited to the statement of ‘Risk factors’ given below. NTPC Limited, having made all reasonable inquiries, accepts responsibility for, and confirms that this Offer Document contains all information with regard to NTPC Limited and the issue, that the information contained in the offer document is true and correct in all material aspects and is not misleading in any material respect, that the opinions and intentions expressed herein are honestly held and that there are no other facts, the omission of which make this document as a whole or any of such information or the expression of any such opinions or intentions misleading in any material respect.

The issuer has no side letter with any debt securities holder except the one(s) disclosed in the offer document/placement memorandum. Any covenants later added shall be disclosed on the stock exchange website where the debt is listed. You should carefully consider all the information in this Offer Letter, including the risks and uncertainties described below before making an investment in the Debentures. Additional risks and uncertainties not known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. If any of the following or any other risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and prospects may be adversely affected and the price and value of your investment in the Debentures could decline such that you may lose all or part of your investment. RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS 1. Our expansion and diversification plans are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, which may result

in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. Our growth strategy and expansion plans subject us to a number of considerations, including the following:

• Our ability to finance capital expenditure for expansion, including the management of new equipment and projects and the maintenance and up-gradation of existing equipment and projects, is subject to a number of risks, contingencies and other factors, including interest rates, availability of loans and cost of borrowing.

• Our ability to procure fuel at prices and terms acceptable to us. In particular, estimates of coal reserves are subject to assumptions and, if the actual amounts of such reserves are less than estimated or if the quality of the coal reserves is lower than estimated or we are unable to commence planned captive coal mining activities for any other reason including de-allocation of mines by authorities, we may not be able to implement our expansion plans.

• Our ability to obtain licenses under the Electricity Act, 2003, including transmission licenses, distribution licenses and electricity trading licenses.

• Our ability to obtain licenses/consents/approvals under environmental laws (including mining laws) and labor, health and safety laws.

• Actual increases in demand for power as well as other services and products offered by us, such as our consultancy and other allied businesses, may not meet anticipated demand based on which we have planned our operations and growth for any given periods, or the success or sustainability of any of our growth plans may be adversely affected by other industry trends that we have been unable to correctly anticipate.

• Our ability to sell power is dependent upon the financial position of the various SEBs/Distribution companies of the states who may not purchase power which is costly in merit order or otherwise.

• There may be potential adverse short-term effects on operating results through increased costs or

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 20 -

otherwise, such as change in regulatory norms etc.

• We may experience economic, political and social uncertainty or volatility in the diverse regions in which we currently operate or in which we plan to set up operation.

• We may face challenges associated with recruitment and retention of adequate skilled personnel as well as possible diversion of management time and focus and managing the realignment of our management and administrative resources.

• We may not be selected for projects that we may bid for in the future, including as a result of other entities being able to make a more competitive bid.

• We may face increasing competition going forward, including from private sector players, in our current as well as proposed business activities.

• Our plans may further be affected by litigations, adverse judicial rulings, change of law etc.

We also expect that the execution of our growth strategy and new power projects will place significant strains on our management, financial and other resources. Continued expansion increases the challenges involved in financial and technical management, recruitment, training and retaining sufficient skilled technical and management personnel, and developing and improving our internal administrative infrastructure. If we are unable to successfully implement our business plan and growth strategy, we may also be unable to meet the annual performance targets set by the Government pursuant to the annual Memorandum of Understanding which we enter into with the Government. Any of these factors may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects.

In particular, as we seek to diversify our operations, including by way of forward and backward integration in the power sector and by way of diversifying our fuel mix, we may be subject to a number of additional risks. Any new business that we may enter into, may subject to a legal, regulatory, policy and business environment that we are not currently familiar with, or may pose significant challenges to our administrative, financial and operational resources. The early stages and long gestation periods of new businesses may make it difficult to predict their economic viability. Therefore, there is no assurance as to the timing and amount of any returns or benefits that we may receive from new business initiatives or new fuel sources that we are currently exploring or developing.

2. Power projects generally have long gestation periods and subject us to various operational risks, which may result in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. Power projects generally have long gestation periods, which may entail a significant period of time before the economic viability of a given project can be established and there may be substantial capital outflow before we are able to realize expected benefits or returns on our investment. Moreover, the construction, development or operation of our power projects, coal mines or other facilities may be disrupted or affected by various factors that may be beyond our control, including the following:

• Our ability to acquire land depends on its ownership status, the classification of land use and the willingness of owners to sell or lease their land. Acquisition of land may involve a number of difficulties relating to rehabilitation and resettlement and provision of adequate compensation to project affected people, while diversion of forest land would be subject to Government clearance.

• We depend on independent contractors for construction, installation, delivery and commissioning, as well as the supply and testing of key plant equipment and other non-core aspects of our business. We may only have limited control over the timing and quality of services, equipment or supplies provided by contractors as well as suppliers and vendors, and any failure or delay in performance by any such persons or entities could result in time and cost overruns for us.

• We may experience geological difficulties during the execution of construction projects, especially during the development of hydroelectric, oil and gas and coal mining projects. For example, during the execution of our construction projects, we may discover adverse rock strata or terrain, or trapped gases or trapped

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 21 -

water and our plant designs may be unsuitable for dealing with such geology. These geological factors may result in costs and time overruns or cause us to determine that a planned project or expansion is no longer economically feasible.

• Mechanical failure and equipment shutdowns, explosions, fires, natural disasters such as cyclones and earthquakes, breakdown, failure or substandard performance of equipment, improper installation or operation of equipment, accidents, transmission or transportation interruptions, environmental disasters, significant social or political disruptions including terrorism and labor disputes, or industrial action may significantly affect our operations.

• Non-availability of fuel of desired quantity and quality may significantly disrupt our operations or reduce our profitability.

If such operational difficulties occur, our ability to supply electricity to our customers or source fuel (coal, oil and gas) may be adversely affected. In the event any facility is significantly damaged or forced to shut down for a significant period of time, our business, financial condition and prospects may be adversely affected.

In particular, many of our power stations are ageing and may subject us to additional risks to the extent that we may be required to undertake renovation and modernization schemes involving significant capital expenditure.

3. We have significant fuel requirements and may not be able to ensure availability of adequate fuel at

competitive prices. Also, we may not be able to ensure availability of sufficient amounts of coal of the grade, quality and specifications that we require in order to operate our coal-based power stations, at commercially reasonable prices. Availability of fuels at competitive prices is critical to our business. Fuel costs represent our largest expense. Although we purchase a significant part of our fuel requirements, particularly coal and gas, under long-term fuel supply agreements, there is no assurance that our suppliers will be able to satisfy their contractual commitments, particularly in relation to the grade and quality of coal that we may require for our operations, or that alternative sources of supply will be available to us on reasonable terms. In the event our contracted sources of fuel supply or other domestic sources of fuel supply (for instance, through short term purchase agreements or orders placed by us on the spot market) fall short for any reason including uncertainty in the domestic market regarding coal blocks allocation, or the grade, quality and specifications of fuel available for supply to us does not match our specifications and requirements, we may be required to explore alternative sources of fuel supply, including for import of fuels such as coal from other countries at prices that may be significantly higher than the prices at which we have historically sourced fuel for our power stations in the past. Further, domestic coal and gas allocations and gas prices are currently determined by Government policy, while coal prices are contractually set, which limits our financial and operational flexibility to an extent. In the event that coal and gas supplies or gas prices in India were to be deregulated, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain adequate supplies of coal and gas at competitive prices. Moreover, the availability and cost of fuels, including coal and gas, are subject to volatility in world commodity markets, the level of investment in exploitation of mine reserves in India and elsewhere, the quality and grade of coal and gas available in India and elsewhere, and other factors that may be beyond our control. Any constraints on sourcing adequate quantities of fuel at commercially reasonable costs, and of acceptable grade, quality or other specifications, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects.

The domestic demand for coal is expected to increase significantly in the future, driven by significant capacity addition in the Indian power sector. High dependence on domestic coal could therefore expose us to potential price and availability risks. In the event of a shortage of coal, not only will the productivity of our coal-fired power stations be affected but it will also hinder our expansion plans. We also source coal through bilateral short-term memoranda of understanding, through imports and through e-auctions. However, there is no

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 22 -

assurance that such sources of coal will continue to be available to us in the future at reasonable prices or terms or at all. With respect to gas, our use has been limited in the past due to inadequate supply of domestic gas. We have arranged for the supply of re-liquefied natural gas through long- and short-term contracts to meet part of its requirements.

4. The power sector in India is regulated. For instance, tariff regulations issued by the CERC, may adversely affect

our business, financial condition and prospects. Moreover, other regulatory matters and changes in applicable law and policy may adversely affect us. Our businesses are regulated by the central and state governments in India, through a number of laws, rules, regulations and policies applicable to the power sector in India.

Moreover, the regulatory framework in India continues to evolve and there is a particular focus on increasing private participation in the future. Non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations may also lead to penalties, revocation of our permits and registrations, or costly litigation. Any significant legal or regulatory change or uncertainty in the power sector may adversely impact our business, financial condition and prospects.

5. Our PPAs may expose us to certain risks that may affect our business, financial condition and prospects.

Further, there is no assurance that we will be able to sell power outside the long term PPAs and this could have an adverse impact on our revenues. Under our PPAs with our customers, which are generally state utilities, our profitability is largely a function of our ability to make available and operate our power plants at optimal levels in accordance with minimum performance standards that may be determined from time to time by regulatory bodies and our ability to manage our costs. Any failure to meet such minimum performance standard or manage our costs may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. Further, the PPAs have inherent risks that may restrict our operational and financial flexibility. For example, long-term PPAs provide for sale of power to customers at tariffs and terms determined by the regulator. Accordingly, if there is an industry-wide increase in tariffs, we will not be able to take advantage of increased tariffs or negotiate satisfactory alternative off-take arrangements. These limitations affect our ability to enjoy the benefits of an increased tariff rate that our competitors selling power outside long-term PPAs may otherwise enjoy.

In addition, in the event that PPAs are terminated prematurely, or not renewed or not honored or extended after the initial term expires and, if we are unable to enter into purchase agreements with other customers, this may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. Further, MOP has allowed us to sell power from our thermal plants which are over 25 years old after bundling with our upcoming solar capacity. We are not able to guarantee that we will be able to enter into PPAs with beneficiaries for selling power on bundled basis. Such agreements may create additional variability in our revenues and could expose our business to risks of market fluctuations in demand and price for power.

6. Weak financial position of distribution companies adversely affects our ability to recover dues from them and

poses an off-take risk which may adversely affect our financial position. The distribution companies and State Electricity Boards (“SEBs”) have had weak credit histories in the past and continue to operate under financial constraints, due in part to the regulatory and policy constraints applicable to them in their respective states. Historically, we have had significant problems recovering payments from the SEBs, which, we believe, have been largely resolved due to Governmental intervention. However, any inability to adequately enforce such customers’ ability to honor their off-take obligations towards us, or the escrow, letter of credit or other arrangements entered into with the SEBs or any other change including the proposed/undertaken financial restructuring of various SEBs that adversely affects our ability to recover dues from the SEBs or other state utilities (for instance, due to state policy or regulatory requirements that the state

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 23 -

utilities may be subject to, or other factors affecting the profitability, creditworthiness and operations of such entities) may adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects. Further, lack of schedules for off take of power given by the distribution companies due to their poor financial health will result in lower plant load factor (“PLFs”) and lower operational efficiencies.

7. We are involved in a number of legal and other proceedings and claims that may be determined against us. Further, opposition from local communities may adversely affect our business. In the ordinary course of our business, we, as well as our Directors and officers, are subject to several legal, regulatory, arbitral and administrative proceedings and claims at various levels of investigation or adjudication. These proceedings may include criminal cases (including motor accident claims, fatal accident claims, dishonor of cheques, claims regarding theft of goods, petitions for revision enforcement or quashing of orders previously passed in relation to employment claims, etc.), public interest litigation (“PIL”), appeals against tariff orders of the CERC, civil suits, arbitral claims, taxes (including income and sales tax) and other statutory levies (including royalty claims), employment-related disputes, land-acquisition related disputes, environmental disputes, claims regarding alleged defect in title of properties, trespass and claims for premium, rental and other payments in respect of property owned, leased or otherwise used by us, etc. The total claim, financial implication or amount of contingent liability relating to such proceedings as on the date of this Offer Letter is not ascertainable, including due to the monetary claim against us not having been quantified in many instances, and may be substantial. An adverse decision in any such proceeding may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. There is also no assurance that similar proceedings will not be initiated against us in future. Further, should new developments arise, such as a change in Indian law or rulings against us by appellate courts or tribunals, we may need to make provisions in our financial statements, which could increase our expenses and liabilities.

In addition, the acquisition of land for our projects and related rehabilitation and resettlement requirements, as well as the construction and operation of our projects or our fuel diversification plans (including coal mining, hydroelectric, renewable or nuclear power projects), may face opposition from local communities or special interest groups due to the perceived negative impact such activities may have on the environment and community access to natural resources, or other specific factors from time to time. Significant opposition by local communities, special interest groups and other parties may delay project implementation, divert management focus and otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects.

8. We have incurred significant indebtedness and may incur substantial additional borrowings in connection

with our business. We have substantial outstanding indebtedness including secured borrowings. Our indebtedness and restrictions imposed on us under current or future loan arrangements may adversely impact our business, financial condition and prospects in various ways, including the following:

• We may be required to dedicate a significant portion of our cash flow towards repayment of debt, which will reduce availability of cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate requirements.

• We may be required to maintain certain financial ratios and satisfy certain financial or other covenants.

• As some of our borrowings are secured against our assets, lenders may sell or take over those assets to enforce their claims in the event of any default.

• We may be required to obtain approval from our lenders/trustees, regarding, among other things, reorganization, amalgamation or merger, incurrence of additional indebtedness, disposition of assets and expansion of our business, and no assurance can be given that we will receive such approvals in a timely manner or at all.

• Our project costs may increase since we capitalize interest during the construction of our facilities.

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 24 -

Moreover, our ability to meet our debt service obligations and to repay outstanding borrowings will depend primarily upon the cash flow generated by our business over time, as well as our ability to tap the capital markets as a source of capital. If we fail to meet our debt service obligations or financial or other covenants under our financing documents, our lenders could declare default and cancel unutilized facilities, accelerate the maturity of our obligations or enforce security, which may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects, particularly in the event cross-default under multiple financing arrangements is triggered. Further, in such event, the availability and cost of future borrowings may be negatively impacted, with consequences that may include increased finance charges, decreased income available to fund future growth, decreased working capital and imposition of restrictive covenants under financing arrangements.

9. Failure to obtain or renew necessary regulatory approvals may adversely affect our business, financial

condition and prospects. In the ordinary course of our business, we as well as our independent contractors and counterparties, are required to obtain and, in several cases, renew, from time to time, various regulatory approvals, including, for instance, consents from the state pollution control boards in India to establish and operate our projects and other facilities and for appropriate handling of biomedical and other hazardous waste, discharge of waste water, as well as registrations with relevant tax and labor authorities in India. In particular, several of our environmental, electrical installation testing, wireless set and boiler-usage or gas-cylinder storage, height clearance, structural design and stability and other approvals across several of our projects may expire in the near future, and we have applied for or are in the process of applying for renewals or extensions of such approvals in due course. Failure to obtain and maintain or renew required approvals and registrations may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. Further, such approvals and registrations may be subject to numerous conditions, including periodic reporting or audit requirements, which may require us to undertake substantial compliance-related expenditure and other procedures. Any actual or alleged non-compliance with specified conditions may result in suspension or cancellation of, or refusal to renew, required approvals and registrations or imposition of penalties, which may be significant, by the relevant authorities. A suspension, cancellation or refusal to extend required approvals and registrations may require us to cease production at some or all of our facilities or to engage in time-consuming and costly administrative and/or legal proceedings in order to resolve such issues, or may affect other aspects of our operations, which may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects.

10. Our ability to raise foreign capital is constrained by global economic conditions and conditions in foreign financial markets. We have raised and expect to continue to raise capital in foreign markets. Our ability to raise foreign capital is constrained by the conditions of these markets. The global capital and credit markets have recently been experiencing periods of extreme volatility and disruption. The global financial crisis, including the continuing sovereign debt crisis in Europe, concerns over recession, inflation or deflation, energy costs, geopolitical issues, commodity prices and the availability and cost of credit, have contributed to unprecedented levels of market volatility and diminished expectations for the global economy and the capital and credit markets.

11. Our Joint Statutory Auditors may have included certain notes and matters of emphasis in their reports on financial statements included in this Offer Letter, which should be considered carefully by prospective investors in the Issue. While there is no reservation, qualification or adverse remarks in the Joint Statutory Auditors’ report on our standalone and consolidated financial statements, our Joint Statutory Auditors have included certain notes and matters of emphasis in their reports, which should be considered carefully by prospective investors in the Issue. For audit reports, refer our website www.ntpc.co.in.

12. We have significant contingent liabilities, which may result in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects, to the extent that any such liabilities materialize. The contingent liabilities appearing in financial statements, as on March 31, 2021, are summarized below:

Rs.in crore

8 Others 433.13 429.08

Total 43,066.09 30,837.78

13. We are subject to various environmental, occupational, health and safety and other laws, which may subject

us to increased compliance costs that may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. Our operations are subject to central, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment and occupational health and safety, including those governing the generation, handling, storage, use, management, transportation and disposal of, or exposure to, environmental pollutants or hazardous materials resulting from power projects as well as with respect to the utilization of fly ash produced in course of our generation and with respect to mining operations conducted in India . For instance, we require approvals under the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 and the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981, in order to establish and operate our power projects, and will require prospecting licenses and, subsequently, mining leases in order to commence prospecting and mining activities at the coal blocks allocated to us.

In addition, in the ordinary course, we are subject to several risks generally associated with power generation as well as coal mining, including explosions, fires, mechanical failures, accidents, discharges of toxic or hazardous substances or gases and other environmental risks. These hazards may cause personal injury and loss of life, environmental damage and severe damage to or destruction of property and equipment. We may incur substantial costs, including clean up or remediation costs, fines and civil or criminal sanctions, and third-party property damage or personal injury claims, as a result of violations of or liabilities under environmental or health and safety laws or actual or alleged noncompliance with permits or registrations required at our facilities, or the conditions imposed on us under such permits and registrations. Further, on the expiry or termination of any operating permits held by us, including any mining licenses granted to us in the future, we may be required to incur significant costs to dismantle and decommission our operations and remove our equipment and installations at such sites. Moreover, environmental and health and safety laws, regulations and policies, and the interpretation and enforcement thereof, are subject to change and have tended to become stricter over time. In particular, we expect that the GOI, as well as the governments of several nations worldwide, may be considering/has considered further measures to achieve a significant reduction in carbon and greenhouse gas emissions, particulate matter, Sulphur Dioxide, etc. Compliance with current and future environmental and health and safety laws, regulations and policies, particularly at older power stations, may require substantial capital expenditure. If we fail, or are alleged to have failed, to comply with such laws, regulations and policies, we may be subject to significant fines, penalties, costs, liabilities or restrictions on operations. In certain cases, we may also be required to become involved in costly and time-consuming legal or administrative proceedings in order

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 26 -

to resolve any such allegations or claims that may arise against us, in relation to compliance with applicable environmental and health and safety laws, regulations and policies, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects.

14. Our accounts are subject to audit by the Comptroller and Auditor-General of India and may be adversely affected by any adverse finding in the audit of the accounts. Section 143(6)(b) of the Companies Act, 2013 provides that the Comptroller and Auditor-General of India (“CAG”) shall, within sixty days from the date of receipt of the audit report, have a right to comment upon or supplement such audit report. Our Company could be subject to adverse findings by CAG which could have material adverse impact on our financial conditions, profitability, operations and profits.

15. Inability to attract and retain, or appropriately replace, our key personnel and sufficient skilled workers may adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects. Our success depends substantially on the continued service and performance of our senior management team and other key personnel, as well as on our skilled workforce. If we lose the services of any key individuals and are unable to find suitable replacements in a timely manner, our ability to realize strategic objectives may be impaired. Moreover, as we are a public sector undertaking, Government policies regulate and control emoluments and benefits that we pay to our employees and such policies may not permit us to pay market rates. Consequently, private sector participants in power generation, coal mining, oil exploration and production and related activities may dilute the talent pool available to public sector undertakings. Also, since most of our operations lie in remote regions of India, we may face competitive disadvantages in attracting and retaining key personnel and skilled workers at various levels and positions across our organization.

16. We may be adversely affected by strikes; work stoppages or increased wage demands or any other kind of

disputes involving our work force. Further, Government announcements relating to increased wages for public sector employees will increase our expenses. We employ a significant number of employees and engage various contractors who provide us with laborers at our power projects. Most of our non-executive workers are unionized. Any shortage of skilled personnel or work stoppages caused by disagreements with our work force and the unions may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. Further, under Indian law, we may be required to absorb a portion of contract labor as our employees or we may be held responsible for wage payments, benefits and amenities to labor engaged by our independent contractors, should such contractors default on wage payments or in providing benefits and amenities. Further, Government announcements relating to increased wages for public sector employees may increase our expenses.

17. We may encounter problems relating to the operations of our Joint Venture/Subsidiaries, which may result in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects. As on the date of this Offer Letter, our Company has formed Joint Ventures for undertaking specific business activities, as well as subsidiaries. Our Joint Ventures/Subsidiaries, present and future, as well as our obligations under any joint venture agreements, whether subsisting or future, may subject us to certain risks, including the following:

• Our joint venture partners may be unable or unwilling to fulfil their financial or other obligations to us, or may have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with ours, or may take actions contrary to our instructions, requests, policies and objectives or actions that are not acceptable to regulatory authorities or may become involved in litigation with us or third parties or may have financial difficulties that may make it difficult for us to enforce our agreements with them.

• Some of our joint venture agreements prohibit us from, among other things, disposing of our shareholding in the Joint Ventures for specified periods or acquiring additional shares without the written consent of the other party. Such covenants may limit our ability to make optimum use of our investments or exit these joint venture companies at our discretion, which may have an adverse impact on our business, financial

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 27 -

condition and prospects.

• We may withdraw from our JVs or subsidiaries if they are unable to operate in the desired manner to achieve the goals for which the same were set up.

18. Our operations and expansion plans have significant water requirements, and we may not be able to ensure

regular and adequate availability of water. Water is a key input for hydroelectric and thermal power generation. Our operations and the proposed expansion of generation capacity will be dependent on, among other things, our ability to ensure unconstrained and undiminished availability of committed water supply from State Governments during the life cycle of the existing and planned power stations. Changing weather patterns and inconsistent rainfall and change in law can hamper water supply at our power stations. Although we create reservoirs to hold water to cover any temporary shortfall, these reservoirs do not have sufficient capacity to sustain supply to our power stations for extended periods of time. We rely on water supply arrangements with certain State Governments and State Government bodies. Such water sources may run through several States and may be the subject of interstate water disputes. Any interstate water disputes may affect the ability of these State Governments to supply water to us. Water is a limited and politically sensitive resource, and is carefully allocated by the State Governments for use between several groups of users. Accordingly, due to political pressures, State Governments may not fulfill their contractual obligations to us under these water supply agreements. In the event of water shortages, our power projects may be required to reduce their water consumption, which would reduce their power generation capability, thereby adversely affecting our average PLF which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial conditions. Expansion of our generation capacity and the development of new power stations cannot be initiated unless we have regular and adequate availability of water and/or confirmation of water availability for these projects.

19. While we generate high levels of ash in our operations, our ash utilization activities may be insufficient to dispose of all the ash that we generate. Our power generation capacity may be adversely affected to the extent that we are unable to appropriately utilize ash generated for our operations as per stipulated laws and timelines. In particular, our Company generates high levels of ash in its operations. There are limited uses for ash and therefore demand for ash is low. While we continue to explore methods to utilize or dispose of ash, our ash utilization activities are insufficient to dispose of the ash we generate. This may add to our capital expenditures and operating expenses. In certain cases where it may not be possible to increase our utilization of ash to comply with this requirement, we may need to reduce the generation of ash through a partial or full shutdown of our operating power stations, thereby reducing our average PLF which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects.

20. The interests of our directors may cause conflicts of interest in the ordinary course of our business. Conflicts of interest may arise in the ordinary course of decision making for our Company. Some of our non-Executive Directors and General Managers are also on the board of directors of certain companies which are engaged in businesses similar to our business. There is no assurance that our directors will not provide competing services or compete with our business in which we are already present or will enter into in future.

21. Some of our immovable properties may have certain irregularities in title, which may adversely affect us.

There may be certain irregularities in respect of our title to some of the land acquired for our various power stations as well as other properties owned by and leased to us, for instance, the title deeds may not have been properly executed or stamped or registered or lease agreements may have expired and not yet been renewed. In certain cases, the prescribed land acquisition procedures are yet to be completed and, accordingly, we do not yet have clear and absolute title to certain immovable properties. Further, in respect of certain immovable

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 28 -

properties, we are involved in legal or regulatory proceedings that are pending before various courts and authorities in India and the total claim against us in such proceedings is not quantifiable. Further, a portion of the land acquired for our projects is subject to adverse possession. Failure to possess or repossess such land may adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects.

22. Inability to adapt to technological changes or disruptions to our technology platforms or business or

communication systems may adversely affect us. Our success depends in part on our ability to respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis. Changes in technology and costs of equipment and compliance, particularly as we continue to diversify into non-conventional energy sources, may require us to make significant additional capital expenditures to upgrade our facilities. If we are unable, for technical, legal, financial or other reasons, to identify and adapt in a timely and cost-effective manner to technological changes and consequently evolving market conditions and customer requirements, our business, financial condition and prospects may be adversely affected. In addition, as we source hardware and software from third parties, there is no guarantee that there will not be any defects in these products, which may affect or disrupt our business.

23. Our business involves numerous risks that may not be covered by insurance.

While we maintain insurance cover that we believe to be consistent with industry practice, including a mega risk policy which covers risks as to physical loss or damage and machinery breakdown including certain extensions to cover risks such as burglary, leakage and overflowing, firefighting expenses, deliberate damage, removal of debris, subject to certain standard exclusions, exemptions and clarifications such as standard wear and tear and gradual deterioration of insured assets, the occurrence of any events that are not covered by our insurance, or any losses that are in excess of our insurance coverage or that may be claimed by us in the future but not honored by our insurers for any reason, may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects.

24. The President of India acting through the MOP exercises a majority control in the Company, which enables it

to influence the decision-making process. The President of India acting through the MOP holds majority of the paid-up Equity Share capital of our Company as detailed elsewhere in the document which enables the Government of India to influence the outcome of any matter submitted to shareholders for their approval. Exercise of such influence by the Government of India may adversely affect the interests of the Company and its other shareholders which, in turn, could adversely affect the goodwill, operations and profitability of the Company.

25. We may be adversely affected by changes in Government policy and shareholding. Government owns majority of our Company’s paid-up capital. While we generally manage our business on a daily basis with a high degree of financial and operational autonomy, in large part as a result of our ‘MAHARATNA’ status, Government ownership has been an important factor in many aspects of our business, including the settlement of electricity dues payable by the SEBs. Any pursuit of Government policies that are not in the interests of our Company, or the loss of ‘MAHARATNA’ status, or any significant change in Government shareholding in our Company could adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects.

26. Failure to protect intellectual property rights may adversely affect our business and prospects.

We have not registered our trademark or that of our Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures. Consequently, we do not enjoy the statutory protections accorded to registered trademarks in India and may in the event of a competing claim, be required to enter into expensive and prolonged litigation in order to establish or protect our use of such trademarks and other intellectual property.

27. Risks relating to accelerated solar capacity addition The Company intends to add substantial renewable (solar) energy-based power projects in future (“Renewable Projects”). Renewable Projects are subject to other risks including higher tariffs as compared to conventional

Private Placement Memorandum cum Application Letter Private & Confidential-not for circulation

- 29 -

coal-based plants and the associated off-take risk, determination of adverse tariff, technology risk, sub-optimal performance, parallel investment required from state agencies and central transmission utilities in infrastructure for evacuation of power, grid instability, regulations mandating forecasting and scheduling of solar power, non-availability of tax benefits and lower merit order.

28. Risks relating to trading of solar power under National Solar Mission Our Company has been designated as the nodal agency by the Government of India for selection of solar power developers for grid-connected solar photo voltaic power plants to be developed under ‘National Solar Mission’. Our Company shall also be required to purchase solar power from these plants for further sale to state distribution companies. Any default by state distribution companies in payment of dues on account of solar power generated or traded by the Company and foreign currency exchange rate variations or refusal to off-take solar power is likely to have an adverse impact on the balance sheet of the Company affecting the overall credit-risk.

29. We have entered into certain transactions with related parties. Any transaction with related parties may involve conflicts of interest We have entered into transactions with several related parties. We can give no assurance that we could not have achieved more favorable terms had such transactions not been entered into with related parties. Furthermore, it is likely that we will enter into related party transactions in the future. There can be no assurance that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The transactions we have entered into and any future transactions with our related parties have involved or could potentially involve conflicts of interest.

30. In addition to our Rupee borrowings and financial activities, we currently have foreign currency borrowings

as well as financing activities, which are likely to continue or increase in the future, which will expose us to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, which could adversely affect our financial condition. We currently have foreign currency borrowings as detailed elsewhere in the document. We may seek to obtain additional foreign currency borrowings in the future. We are therefore affected by adverse movements in foreign exchange rates. While we seek to hedge foreign currency exposures, there can be no assurance that our hedging policies and mechanisms will remain effective or that we will enter into effective hedging with respect to any new foreign currency borrowings. To the extent we increase our foreign currency borrowing in the future, we may be further exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. Volatility in foreign exchange rates could adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. Further, adverse movement of foreign exchange rates may also affect our borrowers negatively, which may in turn adversely affect the quality of our exposure to these borrowers.

31. Failure or delayed updating of our Information Technology systems could significantly affect our business operations. Continued updating of our information technology systems commensurate with the nature and volumes of business operations is necessary. While, we have been upgrading our information technology systems, there can be no assurance that the new systems will be successfully integrated into our existing systems, that our employees can be successfully trained to utilize the upgraded systems, that the upgraded systems, if installed and operational, will not become quickly outdated or that the upgraded systems will bring about the anticipated benefits.

RISKS RELATING TO INDIA 32. Economic, political or other factors beyond our control may have an adverse impact on our business, financial

condition and prospects. The following external risks may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and prospects:

• slowdown in economic growth, especially in the power sector, may adversely affect our business, financial

- 30 -

condition and prospects;

• decline in India’s foreign exchange reserves may affect liquidity and interest rates in the Indian economy and an increase in interest rates may adversely impact the valuation of the Indian Rupee vis-à-vis foreign currencies, as well as our access to capital and borrowing costs, which may constrain our ability to grow our business and operate profitably;

• the Indian and global economies have had sustained periods of high inflation in the past. High inflation may increase our employee costs and decrease demand for power, which may have an adverse effect on our profitability and competitive advantage;

• a downgrade of India's sovereign rating by international credit rating agencies may adversely impact our access to capital and borrowing costs, which may constrain our ability to grow our business and operate profitably;

• political instability, resulting from a change in government or in economic and fiscal policies, may adversely affect economic conditions and our own operations;

• natural disasters such as cyclones and earthquakes may disrupt our operations or adversely affect the economy, on the health of which our business depends;

• civil unrest, terrorist attacks, regional conflicts or situations of war may adversely affect the financial markets and our own operations; and

• availability and reliability of transport and telecommunications infrastructure, particularly in India, may affect our business, financial condition and prospects, including in terms of impacting our cost of fuel and profit margins, as well as the expected schedule of commissioning of our projects under construction.

33. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application of corporate and

tax laws, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects. The regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving. Such changes, including the instances mentioned below, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and prospects, to the extent that we are unable to suitably respond to and comply with such changes in applicable law and policy:

• The Companies Act 2013 has been notified and it envisages significant changes, including on issue of capital, corporate governance, audit and corporate social responsibility.

Uncertainty in applicability, interpretation or implementation of any change in governing law or policy, including by reason of an absence or limited body of administrative or judicial precedent may be time consuming as well as costly for us to resolve and may impact our business and prospects.

34. Our ability to raise capital outside India may be constrained by Indian law.

As an Indian company, the Issuer is subject to exchange controls that regulate borrowing in foreign currencies. Such regulatory restrictions limit the Issuer’s financing sources for power projects under development and future investment plans and could constrain its ability to obtain financings on competitive terms and refinance existing indebtedness. In addition, no assurance can be given that the required approvals will be granted to the Issuer without onerous conditions, or at all. The limitations on foreign debt may have an adverse effect on the business growth, financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer.

35. Our ability to invest in overseas Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures may be constrained by Indian and foreign laws. RBI issues guidelines, from time to time, for Overseas Direct Investment in JV’s and wholly subsidiaries imposing certain restrictions on investments. Our failure to comply with these guidelines may hamper our investment plans. In addition, there are certain routine procedural and disclosure requirements in relation to any such overseas direct investment. These limitations may constrain our ability to acquire or increase our stake in overseas entities as well as to provide other forms of financial support to such entities, which may adversely affect our growth strategy and prospects.

36. COVID-19 pandemic The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the entire world and India is no exception to it. The lockdown imposed in the country in view of containing the infection resulted in slowdown of the Indian economy and bouncing back to normal economic state may take considerable time. The electricity consumption being dependent on the economic activities in the country has seen a dip in the demand during the period of lockdown. COVID-19 has also affected the supply chain, workforce availability, land acquisition, cash-flow of your company which may affect the timely execution of the under-construction projects of your company adversely affecting the growth plans.

RISKS RELATING TO INVESTMENT IN THE DEBENTURES 37. There has been only a limited trading in the debentures of such nature and the price of the Debentures may

be volatile subject to fluctuations. The Debentures have no established market and there is no assurance that an active market for these Debentures will develop or be sustained. Further, the liquidity and price of the Debentures may vary with changes in market and economic conditions, our financial condition and other factors that may be beyond our control.

38. There is no guarantee that the Debentures will be listed on the Stock Exchange(s) in a timely manner or at all,

or that monies refundable to Applicants will be refunded in a timely manner. In accordance with Indian law and practice, approval for listing and trading of the Debentures will not be granted until after the Debentures have been allotted. While we will make our best efforts to ensure that all steps for completion of the necessary formalities for allotment, listing and commencement of trading on the Stock Exchange(s) are taken within the time prescribed by SEBI or applicable law, there may be a failure or delay in listing the Debentures on the Stock Exchange(s). We cannot assure you that any monies refundable on account of (a) withdrawal of the Issue, or (b) failure to obtain final approval from the Stock Exchange(s) for listing of the Debentures, will be refunded in a timely manner. We shall, however, refund any such monies, with interest due and payable thereon, as prescribed under applicable law.

39. You may not be able to recover, on a timely basis or at all, the full value of outstanding amounts on the

Debentures. Our ability to pay interest accrued and the principal amount outstanding from time to time in connection with the Debentures is subject to various factors, including our financial condition, profitability and the general economic conditions in India and in the global financial markets.

40. Changes in interest rates may affect the price of the Debentures.

Securities where a fixed rate of interest is offered, such as the Debentures, are subject to price risk. The price of such securities will vary inversely with changes in prevailing interest rates, i.e., when interest rates rise, prices of fixed income securities fall and when interest rates drop, the prices increase. The extent of fall or rise in the prices is a function of the coupon rate, days to maturity and increase or decrease in prevailing interest rates. Increased rates of interest, which may accompany inflation and/or a growing economy, may have a negative effect on the price of the Debentures.

41. A downgrade in credit rating of the Debentures may affect the price of the Debentures.

The Debentures have been assigned AAA rating by rating agency (ies). We cannot guarantee that this rating will not be downgraded, suspended or withdrawn at any time during the tenor of the Debentures. Any downgrade, suspension or withdrawal in the credit rating on the Debentures may lower the price of the Debentures.

42. Payments on the Debentures will be subordinated to certain tax and other liabilities preferred by law.

The payment on the Debentures will be subordinated to certain liabilities preferred by law, such as claims of the GOI on account of taxes, and certain liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of our business. In an event of default in excess of the DRR, in particular, in an event of bankruptcy, liquidation or winding-up, our assets will

- 32 -

be available to meet payment obligations on the Debentures only after all liabilities that rank senior to the Debentures have been paid and, in such event, there may not be sufficient assets remaining, after paying amounts relating to these claims, to pay amounts due on the Debentures.

GENERAL RISK 43. Investment in non-convertible securities involve a degree of risk and investors should not invest any funds in

such securities unless they can afford to take the risk attached to such investments. Investors are advised to take an informed decision and to read the risk factors carefully before investing in this offering.

Ownership

Our Company was incorporated on 7 November 1975 under the Companies Act 1956 as a private limited company under the name, ‘National Thermal Power Corporation Private Limited’. The name of our Company was changed to ‘National Thermal Power Corporation Limited’ on 30 September 1976 consequent upon a notification issued by the GOI exempting government companies from the use of the word ‘private’. On September 30, 1985, our Company was converted from a private limited company into a public limited company. The name of our Company was changed to ‘NTPC Limited’ and a fresh certificate of incorporation was issued on October 28, 2005. In October 2004, the Company came out with its Initial Public Offering (IPO) consisting of 5.25% as fresh issue comprising of 432,915,000 equity shares of Rs.10 each and another 5.25% of 432,915,000 equity shares of Rs.10 each as an offer for sale by the President of India acting through the Ministry of Power, Government of India. On November 5, 2004, the shares of the Company were listed on NSE and BSE. NTPC thus became a listed company with Government holding 89.5% comprising of 7,379,634,400 equity shares and the remaining 10.5% of equity comprising of 865,830,000

equity shares held by institutional investors and public. Pursuant to the decision of Cabinet Committee of Economic Affairs on October 19,2009, 412,273,220 Equity Shares of Rs.10/- each were offered to public through “Further Public Offering” by Government of India thereby reducing the stake of Government of India from 89.5 % to 84.5%.

Pursuant to the decision of Cabinet Committee of Economic Affairs on 22 November 2012, 78,32,62,880 Equity Shares of Rs.10/- each were offered to public by way of Offer for Sale through stock exchange mechanism on February 7, 2013, thereby reducing the Government of India’s shareholding to 75%. Further, Cabinet Committee of Economic Affairs while approving the above Offer for Sale also approved issuance of shares to NTPC employees at a discounted price of Rs. 138.27 per equity share. Accordingly, Employee OFS was made in May 2014 and 34,83,320 equity shares were transferred from Government of India to respective successful applicants (employees). Thus, Government of India’s shareholding in NTPC has reduced to 6,18,06,14,980 i.e., 74.96% of paid-up equity capital of the Company from 6,18,40,98,300 shares i.e., 75.00%. Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) in May 2015 accorded approval for further disinvestment of 5% of paid-up equity capital i.e., 41,22,73,220 shares in NTPC through OFS by promoters through Stock Exchange Mechanism. On 22 February 2016, meeting of High-Level Committee of the Officers recommended the opening of the bidding for OFS Mechanism on 23.02.2016 for non-retail investors and on 24.02.2016 for retail investors. The offer was oversubscribed by 1.8 times (184.78%). After this disinvestment the Government of India’s stake in NTPC has reduced from 74.96%. to 69.96% and now GOI holds 5,76,83,41,760 shares. GOI has further divested 0.22% of the paid-up share capital in NTPC through Employee OFS during July-2016. Consequent upon transfer of shares to employees of NTPC, the Government of India’s stake has reduced from 69.96%. to 69.74% i.e., 575,07,59,170 shares out of total 824,54,64,400 shares. Alternative Mechanism (AM) in April 2017 accorded approval for further disinvestment of up to 10% of paid-up equity capital i.e.,82,45,46,440 shares in NTPC through OFS by promoters through Stock Exchange Mechanism. On 28 August 2017, High Level Committee of the Officers recommended the opening of the bidding for OFS Mechanism on 29.08.2017 for non-retail investors and on 30.08.2017 for retail investors. After this disinvestment, the Government of India’s stake in NTPC reduced from 69.74%. to 63.11% and GOI held 5,20,36,08,726 shares. GOI further divested 0.12% of the paid-up share capital in NTPC through Employee OFS during September-2017. Consequent upon transfer of shares to employees of NTPC, the Government of India’s stake has reduced from 63.11%. to 62.99% i.e., 519,41,38,878 shares out of total 824,54,64,400 shares.

Consequent upon settlement of 2% buyback of paid-up equity share capital (19,78,91,146 shares) of the company on 30 December 2020, GOI shareholding in the company has increased from 51.02% to 51.10% i.e., 495,53,46,251 shares out of total 969,66,66,134 shares.

Operational Performance

The engineering, construction and operation of power plants for the thermal generation of power is the core business of the Company. Sales of electricity accounts for major portion of the gross income of NTPC.

The following table presents certain key operating data of the Company for the preceding 3 years and fiscal 2021-22 on a standalone basis:

Description Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2020 Fiscal 2021 Fiscal 2022

Gross Generation (BUs) BU 274.451 259.618 270.906 299.181

The Company’s operations strategy includes use of forward planning and monitoring tools; active institution building; use of advanced IT enabled tools; new technology initiatives; emphasis on quality of repair and maintenance.

Long term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with our customers

Most of our stations have long term PPAs with its customers which are generally equal to the expected useful lives of the projects. The GOI allocates the capacity of each of our stations among the station's customers. Electricity is supplied to the distribution companies and/or SEBs in accordance with the terms of the allocation letters issued by the GOI. The terms are equal to the expected useful lives of the stations. The actual lives of the stations are often longer, and, unless the customer ceases to draw power, contracts continue in force until they are formally extended, renewed or replaced. As part of investment approval procedures, PPAs are required to be in place for all new stations except for merchant power stations.

Tariffs Tariffs of majority of our projects are regulated by Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC). Fuel supply Fuel accounts for the major portion of expenditure. The power plants of the Company use two primary fuel sources, coal and natural gas. Fuel supply linkages which are tied to plant life are typically finalized prior to investment approval. Human Resource Management Competence building, commitment building, culture building, and systems building are the 4 building blocks on which our human resources systems are based, and our human resources vision is “to enable our people to be a family of committed world class professionals”. We have adopted a people-first approach and believe that our continuing initiatives have strengthened our identity as a preferred employer.

Market Leadership The Company has adopted a Vision “To be the world's leading power company, energizing India's growth". In order to realize this Vision, it has planned an ambitious capacity addition program.

Business Strategy The Company intends to expand in the power sector through forward and backward integration and diversification along the following three key dimensions:

✓ Capacity addition program ✓ Diversification along the power value chain ✓ Exploiting potential services business opportunities in the domestic and international markets

Strategy for capacity addition The Company will continue to adopt a multi-pronged growth strategy through expansion of existing stations, acquisitions and the joint venture/subsidiary route.

Expansion of Existing Stations Expansion of existing stations generally provides some cost advantage driven by shared facilities, scale of operation, etc. Due to these inherent advantages, the Company adopts this approach for expanding capacities of coal and gas-based stations wherever feasible.

Acquisitions A number of power projects with SEBs /State Utilities are technically viable but they are not run efficiently due to various constraints. The turnaround capability of the Company can be effectively utilized to improve the performance of such plants. In the past this strategy has been adopted to reduce the receivables problem, with part of the outstanding of SEBs being adjusted against cost of acquisition. Going forward, it would continue acquiring existing plants wherever it is technically and economically feasible and is aligned with business strategy. NTPC has recently acquired GOI’s stake in NEEPCO & THDC.

Joint Ventures/Subsidiary Route Subsidiaries can be an effective vehicle for mitigating risks that are associated with making significant investments in new business areas. The subsidiaries could also provide a route to invest in alliances and joint ventures for the new business without sacrificing benefits from the main/core business. The Company will consider options for capacity addition through Joint Ventures (JV)/ subsidiary route in the long run. NTPC could form JVs with suitable partners (including customers, fuel suppliers, equipment suppliers, etc.) if found technically and commercially feasible. Among other considerations, the decision to adopt the JV route would be influenced by the value that the JV partner could add to the relationship for e.g., tying up with fuel suppliers could lead to fuel supply security for NTPC.

The Company is also considering installing generation capacities in markets outside India. To de-risk its domestic operations from the risks of operating in other markets, the overseas venture would be structured as subsidiary or Joint Venture of the Company.

Energy mix for capacity addition Currently, coal has a dominant share in the power generation capacities in India. This is also reflected in the high share of coal-based capacities in the Company’s current portfolio. With high uncertainties involved in domestic gas/LNG, both in terms of availability and prices, the Company would continue to set up large pit-head coal-based projects, including few integrated power projects. To reduce the dependence on fossil fuels, there is a need to push for renewable sources of power in the sector.

The Company has been giving increased thrust to hydro development so as to have a balanced portfolio for long term sustainability and such projects are excellent for meeting peak demand. First step in this direction was taken by initiating investment in Koldam Hydro Electric Power Project (HEPP) located in Bilaspur district of Himachal Pradesh which has now been commissioned. NTPC has acquired GOI’s stake in NEEPCO & THDC, which are primarily engaged in hydro power generation, thereby giving significant boost to its hydro portfolio. The Company has also set up a Joint Venture Company with Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) has been incorporated under the name “Anushakti Vidhyut Nigam Limited” (Company) for the purpose of development of nuclear power, in which NPCIL hold 51% equity and the balance 49% is being held by NTPC Limited

By 2032, NTPC targets a capacity of 130 GW+ with increased capacity mix of non-fossil sources. NTPC plans to have a RE capacity of 60 GW by 2032. Diversification along the power value chain a. Backward Integration – foray into coal mining Currently, the Company sources its fuel requirements primarily from Coal India Limited for its coal-based plants. However, to provide greater fuel security for its existing as well as new plants, the Company has forayed into backward integration by entering into captive coal mining and gas exploration.

b. Forward integration – foray into trading Electricity trading has become an attractive opportunity in India. This has resulted in creation of a power market where power can be traded.

In order to leverage this opportunity, the Company has already set up a wholly owned subsidiary for power trading, NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam Limited (NVVN). This company focuses on developing a wholesale power market by providing fair, transparent, secure and reliable systems for power trading. Going forward, NTPC plans to actively track opportunities to profitably grow its presence in power trading and move towards real time trading when a business opportunity is presented.

c. Lateral Integration-foray into Distribution Takeover of distribution circles in India could provide an opportunity for the Company in terms of synergy with generation business. However, significant challenges remain in the takeover of existing distribution circles in India. These challenges emerge from the poor state of the current distribution infrastructure and high incidence of losses. Therefore, while NTPC would evaluate options for taking over existing distribution “circles”, it would adopt a cautious approach. To take over existing circles, a comprehensive techno-economic evaluation needs to be carried out that would help determine the price to be paid for the circle, preconditions for purchase, regulatory and administrative support required for the turnaround, etc. d. Thrust for services business There is a significant demand for EPC services, O&M services, and R&M related services in the domestic and international markets. NTPC is well positioned to exploit these opportunities by levering its expertise in engineering, procurement, construction, operations and maintenance areas. NTPC has already made inroad into the business of providing services through the Consultancy wing. e. Other new Initiatives

• Developing EV charging infrastructure

• Use of treated sewage water

• Waste to energy plant and co-firing plants using biomass.

• Green Chemicals and green hydrogen.

VII. BRIEF HISTORY OF ISSUER SINCE INCORPORATION, DETAILS OF ACTIVITIES INCLUDING ANY REORGANIZATION, RECONSTRUCTION OR AMALGAMATION, CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE, (AUTHORIZED, ISSUED AND SUBSCRIBED) AND BORROWINGS

HISTORY & BACKGROUND Prior to the establishment of the Issuer, power generation and capacity augmentation in India was largely the responsibility of State Electricity Boards (SEBs). The gap between demand and supply for electricity and the ability of SEBs to supply it was perceived as a significant factor by the Govt. of India affecting the economic development of India. To address these shortages in generation of electricity, the Company was set up as a Central Sector Power Utility to augment power generation.

The Company was incorporated as National Thermal Power Corporation Private Limited, a private limited company, 100% owned by Government of India, on 7 November 1975 under the Companies Act. The name of our Company was changed to ‘National Thermal Power Corporation Limited’ on 30 September 1976 consequent upon a notification issued by the GOI exempting government companies from the use of the word ‘private’. Pursuant to the resolution of our shareholders in a general meeting held on 30 September 1985, Company was converted from a private limited company to a public limited company in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act.

On 28 October 2005, in order to give the Company a new corporate identity, its name was changed from “National Thermal Power Corporation Limited” to “NTPC Limited” pursuant to the resolution of shareholders in a general meeting held on September 23, 2005.The new name signifies the substantial ground covered by NTPC and its subsidiaries in the areas of hydro power, coal mining, oil and gas value-chain, power trading and also the substantial efforts in the area of power distribution. All the initiatives of backward, forward and lateral integration are primarily aimed at strengthening NTPC’s core business of power generation.

In July 1976, the registered office of was changed from Shram Shakti Bhawan, New Delhi to Kailash Building, Kasturba Gandhi Marg, New Delhi; subsequently, in May 1979 to NTPC Square, 62-63, Nehru Place, New Delhi and thereupon in October 1988 to the present Registered Office. Major Events

Basis of Allocation / Allotment: As approved by Competent Authority of the Company in line with EBP operating guidelines. Interest on Application Money Interest at the respective Coupon Rates (subject to deduction of income tax under the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961, or any other statutory modification or re-enactment thereof, as applicable) will be paid to the investor(s) on face value of Debentures for the period starting from and including the date of realization of application money in Issuer’s Bank Account up to one day prior to the Deemed Date of Allotment. Such interest would be paid on all the valid allotted applications. To clarify in case the deemed date of allotment and date of receipt of application money is same no interest on application money will be payable. The interest cheque(s)/ demand draft(s) for interest on application money (along with Refund Orders, in case of refund of application money, if any) shall be dispatched by the NTPC within 7 days from the Deemed Date of Allotment, as the case may be, will be dispatched by registered post/courier/speed post to the sole/ first applicant, at the sole risk of the

applicant. Alternatively, the payment towards interest on application money/refund of application money, if any, will be credited to the applicant’s account within 7 days from the deemed date of allotment. The investor is requested to furnish complete details of their Bank Account including IFSC code if they desire to have payment through RTGS/EFT/NECS.

Interest on the Debentures The Debentures shall carry interest at the Coupon Rate from, and including, the Deemed Date of Allotment up to, but excluding the Redemption Date. Interest shall be payable on the “Coupon Payment Dates”, excluding such coupon payment date, on the outstanding face value amount of Debentures till Redemption Date, to the holders of Debentures as on the relevant Record Date. Interest on Debentures will cease from the Redemption Date in all events. For Coupon Payment Dates refer the Term Sheet. In case of a leap year, if February 29 falls during the tenor of a security, then the number of days shall be reckoned as 366 days (Actual/Actual day count convention) for a whole one-year period, irrespective of whether the interest is payable annually, half yearly, quarterly or monthly etc. It is thus emphasized that for a half yearly interest payment, 366 days would be reckoned twice as the denominator; for quarterly interest, four times and for monthly interest payment, twelve times. Computation of Interest: Day Count Convention The interest shall be computed on the basis of Actual/Actual day convention as per term sheet. Effect of Holidays If the interest payment date falls on a holiday, the payment may be made on the following working day however the dates of the future coupon payments would be as per the schedule originally stipulated at the time of issuing the security. In other words, the subsequent coupon schedule would not be disturbed merely because the payment date in respect of one particular coupon payment has been postponed earlier because of it having fallen on a holiday. If the Redemption Date (also being the last Coupon Payment Date) falls on a day that is not a Working Day, the redemption proceeds (including coupon payment) shall be paid on the immediately preceding Working Day along with interest accrued until but excluding the date of such payment. The interest/redemption payments shall be made only on the days when the commercial banks are functioning in Delhi. For the purpose of interest and redemption payment refer working day definition in term sheet. An illustration for guidance in this regard is as per table below: The following table is indicative and only for illustration, does not reflect actual amount and dates. For convenience the cash flows have been reflected for face value of security i.e., of Rs. 10 lakh each. Also, only second and fourth Saturdays and all Sundays have been considered as holidays, the actual holidays may differ from year to year.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Re: Rating Letter for non-convertible debenture (NCD) programme of NTPC Limited

This is in reference to the rating action commentary released on 30th March 2022.

India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) is pleased to communicate the rating of IND AAA/Stable for INR150 billion of NCDs of NTPC Limited.Out of the above, NTPC Limited has already issued NCDs of INR81.71 billion for which the details are in Annexure.

In issuing and maintaining its ratings, India Ratings relies on factual information it receives from issuers and underwriters and from other sourcesIndia Ratings believes to be credible. India Ratings conducts a reasonable investigation of the factual information relied upon by it in accordancewith its ratings methodology, and obtains reasonable verification of that information from independent sources, to the extent such sources areavailable for a given security.

The manner of India Ratings’ factual investigation and the scope of the third-party verification it obtains will vary depending on the nature of therated security and its issuer, the requirements and practices in India where the rated security is offered and sold, the availability and nature ofrelevant public information, access to the management of the issuer and its advisers, the availability of pre-existing third-party verifications such asaudit reports, agreed-upon procedures letters, appraisals, actuarial reports, engineering reports, legal opinions and other reports provided by thirdparties, the availability of independent and competent third-party verification sources with respect to the particular security or in the particularjurisdiction of the issuer, and a variety of other factors

Users of India Ratings’ ratings should understand that neither an enhanced factual investigation nor any third-party verification can ensure that allof the information India Ratings relies on in connection with a rating will be accurate and complete. Ultimately, the issuer and its advisers areresponsible for the accuracy of the information they provide to India Ratings and to the market in offering documents and other reports. In issuingits ratings India Ratings must rely on the work of experts, including independent auditors with respect to financial statements and attorneys withrespect to legal and tax matters. Further, ratings are inherently forward-looking and embody assumptions and predictions about future events thatby their nature cannot be verified as facts. As a result, despite any verification of current facts, ratings can be affected by future events orconditions that were not anticipated at the time a rating was issued or affirmed.

India Ratings seeks to continuously improve its ratings criteria and methodologies, and periodically updates the descriptions on its website of itscriteria and methodologies for securities of a given type. The criteria and methodology used to determine a rating action are those in effect at thetime the rating action is taken, which for public ratings is the date of the related rating action commentary. Each rating action commentary providesinformation about the criteria and methodology used to arrive at the stated rating, which may differ from the general criteria and methodology forthe applicable security type posted on the website at a given time. For this reason, you should always consult the applicable rating actioncommentary for the most accurate information on the basis of any given public rating.

Ratings are based on established criteria and methodologies that India Ratings is continuously evaluating and updating. Therefore, ratings are thecollective work product of India Ratings and no individual, or group of individuals, is solely responsible for a rating. All India Ratings reports haveshared authorship. Individuals identified in an India Ratings report were involved in, but are not solely responsible for, the opinions stated therein.The individuals are named for contact purposes only.

India Ratingsis not your advisor, nor is India Ratings providing to you or any other party any financial advice, or any legal, auditing, accounting, appraisal,valuation or actuarial services.

Detailed RationaleCRISIL Ratings has reaffirmed its 'CRISIL AAA/FAAA/Stable/CRISIL A1+' ratings on the debt instruments, bank facilitiesand fixed deposit programme of NTPC Ltd (NTPC). Also, CRISIL Ratings has withdrawn its rating on bonds worth Rs1,119.50 crore (see annexure: details of rating withdrawn), in line with its withdrawal policy based on independentconfirmation of redemption of these instruments and company’s request. The ratings continue to reflect dominant position of NTPC in the power generation sector in India, strong business andfinancial risk profiles, and strategic importance to the Government of India (GoI). These strengths are partially offset byweak credit risk profiles of customers.

Analytical ApproachCRISIL Ratings has combined the business and financial risk profiles of NTPC and its subsidiaries, associate companiesand joint ventures, because of their strong operational and financial linkages. The ratings factor in the expected support from GoI. CRISIL Ratings believes NTPC will, during exigencies, receive distresssupport from the government for timely servicing of debt, considering its strategic role in meeting nearly a quarter of India’spower generation, and given GoI’s 51.10% stake in the entity as on December 31, 2021. Please refer Annexure - List of entities consolidated, which captures the list of entities considered and their analytical treatment of consolidation.

Key Rating Drivers & Detailed Description

Strengths:Dominant position in India's power generation sectorNTPC is India's largest power generation company, accounting for 17.22% of the overall installed capacity as on March31, 2021 and 22.72% of the power generated in fiscal 2021. Consolidated installed capacity stood at 67.8 GW as ofFebruary 2021. With planned capacity addition of 12-13 GW in the next two fiscals, the company shall retain its dominantposition in the power generation sector.

Strong business risk profileNTPC’s thermal capacities are fully backed by long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs). These PPAs are based onthe classic two-part tariff structure of Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC), which ensures completerecovery of fixed expenses, including debt servicing charges. It also provides for fixed return on equity, based onachievement of the normative plant availability factor (PAF) mandated by the regulator, which NTPC continues tomaintain. For fiscal 2021, the coal and gas-based plants reported PAFs of 91.43% and 95.37%, respectively (against89.67% and 93.75% in the previous fiscal), well above their respective normative levels. The PAF levels fell to 88.10%and 89.44% for coal and gas-based plants, respectively, during the first nine months of fiscal 2022, yet remained abovetheir respective normative levels and are expected to remain stable going forward.

Plant load factors (PLFs) of coal-based power plants were impacted by the disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemicand the subsequent lockdown during the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with PLF falling to 58.22% compared to 73.91% inthe corresponding period of the previous fiscal. Thereafter, increase in power demand with easing of lockdown and pick-up in the economic activity resulted in PLFs rising to 66% in fiscal 2021 and 69% during the first nine months of fiscal2022. Cash flow was unaffected despite fall in PLFs during the pandemic, because of the presence of cost-plusregulated tariff structure, leading to recovery of costs based on the achievement of normative availability.

Healthy financial risk profileGearing is moderate while debt protection metrics are comfortable, and the liquidity is robust. Consolidated gearingincreased slightly to 1.76 times as on March 31, 2021, from 1.56 times a year earlier owing to debt raised to fundcapacity expansion. Though gearing is expected to increase further over the medium term (in line with yearly capitalexpenditure [capex] plan), it will remain comfortable as the funding mix will remain well within the stipulated norm of70:30 (as prescribed by CERC). Liquidity is aided by consolidated cash and equivalent of about Rs 10,000 crore as onSeptember 30, 2021. Though liquidity is expected to moderate due to ongoing capex, it is likely to remain healthy overthe medium term.

Strategic importance to GoINTPC has been accorded the Maharatna status. As part of its divestment plan, GoI has pared its shareholding in NTPCover the past several years. However, it remains the majority shareholder with 51.1% as on December 31, 2021. Thegovernment will continue to provide need-based financial support, through guarantees, for foreign currency borrowing.NTPC also remains strategically important to GoI as it accounts for nearly a fourth of the power generated in the country.

Weakness:

Weak credit risk profile of customersCustomers (mostly state power utilities [SPUs]), have weak credit risk profiles; thus, timely collection of receivables is akey monitorable. However, collection efficiency of NTPC has been consistent at 98-100%. Hence, receivables were lowat around 40 days over the five fiscals ended March 31, 2019. However, due to the pandemic and the ability ofdistribution companies (discoms) to pay generation companies on time being adversely impacted, receivables rose to 68days as on March 31, 2020, which subsequently eased to 59 days as on March 31, 2021 with disbursement of funds todiscoms under the Atma Nirbhar package. Receivables are expected to remain at 60 days in the near term, butcollections are improving with easing of discoms’ liquidity through higher collection. The tripartite agreement betweenNTPC, state governments and the central government enables the company to recover its dues from defaulting SPUs,via the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI’s) devolution to state governments.

Liquidity: SuperiorExpected cash accrual of over Rs 25,000 crore per fiscal over the medium term will comfortably cover yearly debt obligationof Rs 12,500-13,000 crore. Liquidity is also supported by cash balance of about Rs 10,000 crore as on September 30, 2021,and sufficient cushion in the bank limit (bank limit of Rs 3,000 crore was utilised 50% as on December 31, 2021). Liquidity islikely to remain robust over the medium term despite the ongoing capex. Environment, social, and governance (ESG)profileCRISIL Ratings believes that NTPC’s Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) profile supports its already strong creditrisk profile. The power sector has a significant impact on the environment owing to higher emissions, water consumption and wastegeneration. This is because of generation of conventional power involves high dependance on natural resources mainlycoal. The sector has social impact due to its nature of operations affecting local community and health hazards involved.NTPC is focused on mitigating its environmental and social risks. Key ESG highlights

NTPC has well-defined sustainability goals as per its Brighter Plan 2032 initiative. It has deployed strategies to reducethe carbon footprint. It aims for a 17% reduction in CO2 emissions/unit generated by 2032 on base of 2012.It aims to reduce SO2, NOX and particulate matter emissions by 79%, 50%, 61%, respectively by 2032 over base of2012. It is in the process of installing flue gas desulphurisation systems across its entire thermal portfolio over the nextthree years.

NTPC also plans to increase renewable capacity to 60 GW by 2032, forming 50% of its total capacity by then, comparedto ~7.7% as on March 31, 2021.Further, it aims to reduce specific water consumption by 34% by 2032 over base of 2012. Till fiscal 2021 it has reducedspecific water consumption by around 24% over 2012 levels, indicating its progress towards the target.Its loss time injury frequency rate of 0.11 in fiscal 2021, which is lower compared to peers, represents healthy employeesafety and wellbeing standards. Gender diversity is an improvement area, with around 5% of its employee being womenin fiscal 2021.The governance structure is characterised by 20% of its board comprising independent directors. However, there is nosplit in the chairman and CEO positions. It has a committee at the board level to address investor grievances and alsoput out extensive disclosures.

There is growing importance of ESG among investors and lenders. The commitment of NTPC to ESG principles will play akey role in enhancing stakeholder confidence, given its high share of market borrowing in its overall debt and access to bothdomestic and foreign capital markets.

Outlook: StableCRISIL Ratings believes NTPC will continue to maintain its dominant position in India’s power generation sector,underscoring its strategic importance to GoI. The credit risk profile will remain healthy, supported by efficient operations, aregulated tariff structure and comfortable debt protection metrics.

*Details in Annexure@ interchangeability of INR5 billion to fund-based limit from non-fund based. @ of INR35 billion, INR21 billion may be utilised in the form of CP as per the Reserve Bank of India’s guidelines

Analytical Approach : Ind-Ra continues to take a consolidated view of NTPC and its subsidiaries and jointventures (https://indiaratings.co.in/data/Uploads/Others/Subs/NTPC%20-%20List%20of%20Subsidiaries%20and%20Joint%20Ventures.pdf) , together referred to as the group, for arriving at theratings, on account of strong legal, strategic and operational linkages among them.

Key Rating Drivers

Strong Business Profile: The ratings continue to factor in NTPC’s strong dominant position in the Indian power sector

with 23% share in FY21 (FY20: 21%, FY19: 22%) in the overall generation and 26% share (25%, 24%) in coal-based

thermal capacity with a consolidated capacity of 65GW (62GW, 55.8GW).

The ratings are further supported by (i) NTPC operating on a cost-plus-regulated equity model, which allows a healthy

return-on-equity, and recovery of reasonable costs and pass-through of foreign exchange variation; (ii) the presence of

long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with the off-takers; (iii) competitive cost of generation, given the

operational efficiencies; (iv) adequate availability of domestic coal on account of fuel-supply agreements, along with the

commencement of captive coal mining operations; (v) presence of tri-partite arrangements (TPAs) with off-takers, which

ensure timely payment receipts; and (vi) geographical and fuel-source diversification – coal (82%), gas (10%), hydro

(6%) and renewable (2%).

NTPC’s regulatory equity increased to INR663 billion at FYE21 (FYE20: INR618 billion) and the agency expects it to

increase further to around INR900 billion by FYE24.

Strong Linkages with the GoI: NTPC is a strategically-important vehicle for furthering the government of India’s (GoI)

objectives in the power sector. As on 31 December 2021, the GoI held the majority stake in NTPC (51.1%), although its

overall holding has reduced gradually from 63% in FY17. The board and the senior management at NTPC are appointed

by the GoI and the company is strategically important to the government. Additionally, the GoI had guaranteed NTPC’s

INR19 billion of foreign currency loans at FYE20 (FYE19: INR18.9 billion). Furthermore, if NTPC’s standalone rating is

downgraded below the GoI’s sovereign rating, the agency could factor into the ratings the support due to the GoI’s

ownership and NTPC’s strategic importance to the GoI.

During FY21, NTPC provided rebate (INR13.6 billion) and deferment of capacity charges (INR21 billion) to distribution

companies (discoms) amid the COVID-19-led economic disruption on the directives of GoI.

Liquidity Indicator – Adequate: NTPC’s on-balance sheet liquidity remains adequate with unencumbered cash

balances of INR34.4 billion at FYE21 (FYE20: INR16.5 billion). Furthermore, the liquidity is supported by (i) the sanctioned

fund-based working capital limits of INR30 billion with around 50% utilisation for the 12 months ended February 2022; (ii)

its high financial flexibility, given its ability to raise CPs at competitive rates due to its longstanding relationships in the

domestic banking system and capital markets; (iii) healthy cash flow from operations after interest payment of INR268

billion in FY21 (FY20: INR112 billion), and (iv) the competitive cost of borrowing with 6.24% average borrowing cost in

FY21 (6.81%) at the standalone level.

However, the group’s liquidity remains dependent on the dividend/buybacks/bonus debenture issues, along with capex

including acquisitions and investments in joint ventures. The combination of high capex and dividend payouts has led to

the group reporting continued negative free cash flow, and thereby the increase in the debt to INR2,124 billion at FYE21

(FYE20: INR2,030 billion). NTPC completed the share buyback worth INR22.75 billion in December 2020. The agency

believes the company’s capex plans of INR210 billion-250 billion would continue to lead to a negative free cash flow in the

medium term. NTPC has annual debt repayments of INR129 billion in FY22 and INR148 billion in FY23. NTPC has also tied

up long-term loans for its ongoing capex of up to INR150 billion and has access to capital markets for its future debt

requirements. The management does not envisage any major refinancing requirement in FY21-FY23; although in case of

any major increase in receivables, the short-term borrowings could increase.

Improvement in PLFs, Plant availability maintained: The plant load factor (PLF) of NTPC’s coal-based plants

improved in 9MFY22 to 69% (FY21: 66%) amid power demand improvement. However, NTPC maintained a healthy plant

availability factor for coal-based plants, which remained at 88% for 9MFY22 (FY21: 89.7%) above the normative level for

coal-based and gas-based plants, thus ensuring fixed cost recovery, despite a decline in the PLF. Consequently, NTPC’s

fixed-cost under-recovery increased to INR6 billion in FY21 (FY20: INR2.5 billion).. NTPC’s average selling price declined

to INR3.77/kWh in FY21 (FY20: 3.9/kWh), driven by a decline in fuel cost. Ind-Ra expects the fixed cost per unit to

increase in the medium term as NTPC commissions a bulk of its capital works in progress (CWIP) over FY20-FY23 and

because of an incremental capex requirement for meeting the flue-gas desulfurisation (FGD) requirements in 64.85GW of

the consolidated capacity, of which orders for 58.9GW had already been placed as of FY20. However, NTPC continues to

benefit from its fuel tie-ups with Coal India Limited and captive coal production from its Pakri Barwadih (Jharkhand) and

Dulanga (Odisha) mines. NTPC produced 11 million metric tonnes (mmt) of captive coal in FY21 (FY20: 11.2mmt).

Counterparty Risk: NTPC’s debtors declined to INR177 billion in FY21 (FY20: INR203 billion), given the receipts from

liquidity schemes announced by the GoI for discoms. Although given the weak financial positions of the discoms, the risk

remains for increase in debtors in the future. Ind-Ra, however, takes comfort from NTPC’s 100% collection efficiency since

FY04 post the one-time settlement scheme in 2003; a payment security mechanism in the form of a letter of credit backed

by a TPA; NTPC’s ability to regulate power, and the presence of late-payment surcharge that ensures there is no economic

loss on delayed payments (FY21: INR33.2 billion, FY20: INR16 billion).

Net Leverage to Improve Gradually: NTPC’s consolidated net leverage (net debt/EBITDA) remained at 5.6x, in FY21

(FY20: 5.3x). Its EBITDA remained largely stable at INR377 billion in FY21 (FY20: INR383 billion). The marginal decline

was on account of rebate offered due to the COVID-19 pandemic; although, the overall commercial capacity increased by

3.8GW in FY21 to 64.5GW. However, Ind-Ra believes the net leverage will reduce gradually over FY22-FY24 as the

financial profile of NTPC is on an improving trend, given no rebates offered in FY22 and the expected capacity

commissioning of under construction projects over FY22-FY24, a meaningful reduction in CWIP to gross block ratio, a

decline in proportion of under construction to operational capacity, future investments in renewable projects with low

gestation period and no further thermal projects, better than industry PLFs and PAFs, healthy coal linkages and the

company’s ability to manage counterparty risks well. Despite the high net leverage, NTPC’s regulated cost-plus return on

equity model provides sufficient cash flow predictability, thus allowing the business to have a higher leverage than its

category medians.

Standalone Performance: At the standalone level, NTPC reported revenue of INR992 billion in FY21 (FY20: INR977

billion), EBITDA of INR286 billion (INR271 billion), interest coverage (EBITDA/gross interest expense) of 3.6x (4.0x) and

net leverage of 6.0x (6.2x).

Rating Sensitivities

Negative: Higher-than-expected capex, a significant deterioration in collection efficiency and unfavourable

regulatory developments could result in a negative rating action. However, the agency at that time could factor in

the strategic importance of the entity for the GoI. If the ratings were to see a downgrade higher than two notches,

only in such circumstance the final rating see a downward revision.

#includes current outstanding of Rs.3,996.00 crore *carved out of sanctioned working capital limits of the company Details of instruments/facilities in Annexure-1 Detailed Rationale & Key Rating Drivers The reaffirmation of rating assigned to the long term bank facilities/instruments and short term bank facilities/instruments of NTPC continues to factor in the dominant position of the NTPC group as India’s largest power producer, NTPC’s majority ownership by and strategic importance for the Government of India (GoI), the geographic diversity of its operations with diversifying fuel mix and favourable Government policies. The ratings also factor in NTPC’s consistently healthy operating performance with its plant load factor (PLF) remaining higher than all India average PLF. The group’s profitability continues to be robust on the back of firm long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) backed by a cost-plus tariff structure, thereby ensuring adequate recovery of return on equity for the thermal/ hydro plants and long-term fuel supply arrangements for its projects. The ratings further derive strength from the group’s comfortable financial risk profile marked by comfortable profitability and debt coverage indicators. The ratings take cognizance of the risks associated with the implementation of its large debt-funded projects and relatively weak financial health of its power offtakers. Rating Sensitivities Negative Factors- Factors that could lead to negative rating action/downgrade:

Significant delay in the receipt of payment from counterparties leading to average collection period of more than 120 days

Any adverse change in the regulatory environment of power generation sector

Material reduction in the sovereign ownership below 50% Detailed description of the key rating drivers Key Rating Strengths Majority ownership by GoI and Maharatna status The GoI continues to hold a majority stake (51.1% as on March 31, 2021) in NTPC, despite declining steadily over the years. The GoI provide adequate operational and other need-based implicit support. The GoI is instrumental in appointment of the board and the senior management as well as set its business plan. Also the GoI holding increases the financial flexibility in terms of borrowing from overseas debt market. NTPC was accorded the Maharatna status, a status that provides greater

Press Release

autonomy to central public sector enterprises (CPSEs) in their investment and capital expenditure decisions. Also, NTPC is strategically important for the GoI for targeted capacity addition programme under the Central Government sector and implementation of various Central Government schemes. Established position as the largest power generator group in the country NTPC is the largest power generating company of India with an aggregate group installed capacity of 65.8 GW as on March 31, 2021, constituting 17.2% of India’s total installed capacity. It accounted for more than 1/5th of the total generation in India in FY21. The group is a major player in coal-based thermal generation in India. Over the years, the share of coal-based thermal capacity of the group out of total capacity of coal-based thermal plants in India has increased. Besides, it is well diversified in terms of customer base, type of fuel used for generation and geographical spread of its capacity. Cost-plus PPAs assuring stable return and cash flow NTPC group’s electricity charges are determined by CERC for majority of its power stations. The tariff is on cost-plus basis. The capacity charges are recoverable in full if the plant availability is at least the normative plant availability factor (PAF). The energy charge is determined on the basis of landed cost of fuel applied on the quantity of fuel consumption. Moreover, there is a provision for earning incentive on achieving upon achievement of PLF above 85%. Except for few of the subsidiaries, most of the plants in the group have fully tied up their respective capacity through PPAs leading to low sales risk. Typically the PPAs are for 25 years and hence provide long term revenue and cash flow visibility. NTPC’s allocated capacity is also diversified across region with none of the region contributing to more than 40% of the total allocated capacity. Firm fuel supply arrangements and procurement arrangement makes generation competitive NTPC has signed a long-term fuel supply agreement (FSA) for total annual contracted quantity (ACQ) with Coal India Limited and Singareni Collieries Company Limited. It also has bridge linkages, which, combined with the FSA, mitigates fuel risk over a longer horizon. Its FSA adds flexibility to inventory management and eases outage planning. This ensures higher fuel availability at each plant along with reduction in the average energy charge, thereby making the plant cost competitive. This benefit is also available with few of the subsidiaries and JV companies. ACQ materialization has been healthy in the past. The production from Pakri-Barwadih and Dulanga captive coal mine has shown an increasing trend in last two years. Given healthy ACQ materialization from linkage and increasing output from its own captive mines, dependence on imported coal is expected to reduce going forward. Consistent operational performance The coal-based power stations of NTPC group continued to be cost-competitive in terms of generation thus maintaining a sizable spread over the national average PLF in FY21 despite lower power demand. During FY21 (refers to period from April 1 to March 31), PLF on standalone basis stood marginally lower at 66.00% (FY20: 68.20%) for the coal-based plants, which was higher than the all India thermal PLF of 54.51%. The solar and wind projects of the company continue to supplement the total generation of the company thereby diversifying the generation mix. PAF, on standalone basis, stood at 4 year high at 91.43% in FY21 vis-a-vis 89.67% in FY20. Healthy coverage metrics, despite moderate leverage Better operating efficiency and return from new capacities commercialized during FY21 led to marginal improvement in PBILDT margin in FY21. Besides, a reversal of excess tax provisioning pertaining to previous years under the Vivad se Vishwas scheme resulted in an improvement in PAT in FY21 vis-à-vis the FY20 level. Furthermore, the group’s gross cash accruals continued to remain strong. Its overall gearing and total debt/GCA improved from 1.76x and 7.88x as on March 31, 2020 to 1.53x and 6.86x respectively as on March 31, 2021 majorly due to higher cash accrual and accretion of profits leading to improvement in net worth. Interest cover though slightly moderated in FY21, stood comfortable at 4.40x. During FY21, NTPC has been realized more than 100% of the billed amount from the discoms which had crossed Rs.1 lakh crore for the first time. Liquidity – Strong NTPC’s strong liquidity position is marked by healthy accruals vis a vis its capex commitment and repayment obligation in FY22. This is supplemented by partially undrawn credit facilities and sufficient cash and liquid investments. The company’s fund-based working capital utilization stood at 46% for the trailing 12 months ended May’21. NTPC, on consolidated basis had cash and cash equivalents of Rs. 4,388 cr as on March 31, 2021. NTPC enjoys strong financial flexibility and has demonstrated strong debt raising ability in the past. Industry Outlook With economic activities gathering pace post second wave of covid’19 pandemic, power consumption in commercial and industrial segment is expected to return quickly to pre-covid’19 level. CARE estimates that base demand for power is expected to increase by 5%-7% in FY22. This augurs well for thermal plants which are expected to witness marginally better PLF in FY22 as compared to that in FY21. Coal availability continues to be stable with no plant having less than critical stock level during June’21. Thus PAF is expected to be stable ensuring adequate recovery of capacity charge in the current year. The gencos have received copious payments in tranches from discoms upon disbursement through the PFC/REC liquidity package during Q2FY21 to Q4FY21 period. However maintenance of regular payment track record from the discoms is yet to be seen.

3 CARE Ratings Limited

Press Release

Key Rating Weaknesses Counterparty credit risk The weak financial health of many of the state distribution utilities (discoms) continues to remain a cause of concern for NTPC. The Ministry of Power’s (MoP) directive in August 2019 for opening letters of credit (LCs) in favour of the generating companies (gencos) against power purchase by the discoms had temporarily led to prompt collection of bills. Due to the Covid’19 outbreak and the associated lockdown, collections were adversely impacted during H1FY21. However, on account of disbursal under the special liquidity scheme as announced by GoI, overall debtors on consolidated basis have reduced to Rs.17,718 cr as on March 31, 2021 (PY: Rs.20,315 cr). A sizable portion of the overdue is from the discoms of Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir. NTPC, given its low cost energy charge, its diversified off-taker base and its importance as a significant supplier to the DISCOM, has better bargaining power in terms of collections. The payment security mechanism continues to be backed by LC and Tri-Partite Agreement (between GoI, RBI and the State govt. with most of the states having signed the same) with provision of late payment surcharge. Risks related to projects under implementation The various projects under implementation of NTPC (accounting for ~32% of its installed capacity on group basis) exposes it to the project execution/funding related risks. The group’s aim to achieve 60 GW of renewable energy capacity by FY32 also exposes it to risks related to completion of such projects without time or cost overruns. However, the company’s comfortable capital structure and healthy cash flow generation from its operations provide reasonable cushion in terms of availability of funds for meeting the capex requirements. The project risks are also mitigated to a large extent by the company’s proven track record in terms of execution skills and its policy to ensure the availability of land, water, coal, environmental clearances and PPAs prior to approval for investment. Analytical approach: Consolidated. The ratings factor NTPC’s strategic importance to the GoI and its important role for the Indian power generation sector.

CARE is registered with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and also recognized as an External Credit Assessment Institution (ECAI) by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). CARE Ratings is proud of its rightful place in the Indian capital market built around investor confidence. CARE Ratings provides the entire spectrum of credit rating that helps the corporates to raise capital for their various requirements and assists the investors to form an informed investment decision based on the credit risk and their own risk-return expectations. Our rating and grading service offerings leverage our domain and analytical expertise backed by the methodologies congruent with the international best practices.

Disclaimer CARE’s ratings are opinions on the likelihood of timely payment of the obligations under the rated instrument and are not recommendations to sanction, renew, disburse or recall the concerned bank facilities or to buy, sell or hold any security. CARE’s ratings do not convey suitability or price for the investor. CARE’s ratings do not constitute an audit on the rated entity. CARE has based its ratings/outlooks on information obtained from sources believed by it to be accurate and reliable. CARE does not, however, guarantee the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of any information and is not responsible for any errors or omissions or for the results obtained from the use of such information. Most entities whose bank facilities/instruments are rated by CARE have paid a credit rating fee, based on the amount and type of bank facilities/instruments. CARE or its subsidiaries/associates may also have other commercial transactions with the entity. In case of partnership/proprietary concerns, the rating /outlook assigned by CARE is, inter-alia, based on the capital deployed by the partners/proprietor and the financial strength of the firm at present. The rating/outlook may undergo change in case of withdrawal of capital or the unsecured loans brought in by the partners/proprietor in addition to the financial performance and other relevant factors. CARE is not responsible for any errors and states that it has no financial liability whatsoever to the users of CARE’s rating. Our ratings do not factor in any rating related trigger clauses as per the terms of the facility/instrument, which may involve acceleration of payments in case of rating downgrades. However, if any such clauses are introduced and if triggered, the ratings may see volatility and sharp downgrades.

*Instrument details are provided in Annexure-1

ICRA has reaffirmed and withdrawn the long-term rating of [ICRA]AAA (pronounced ICRA triple A) with a Stable outlook

assigned to the Rs. 389.50-crore bonds of NTPC Limited (NTPC). The ratings have been withdrawn at the request of the

company. The redemption payments have been independently verified.

Rationale

ICRA’s rating action continues to factor in NTPC’s dominant position in the Indian power generation sector, its strategic

importance to the Government of India (GoI) and its diversified customer base. The proximity of most of its coal-based plants

to pit heads and superior operational efficiencies, resulting in cost competitiveness, also support the ratings. These, coupled

with the cost-plus nature of tariffs, have resulted in healthy and stable profitability indicators that are likely to be sustained in

the near term. The ratings factor in the diversified counterparty profile of NTPC by virtue of its exposure to discoms in 35

states/Union Territories, although the financial position of most state-owned discoms remains weak. Further, the company

continues to benefit from its coverage under the tripartite agreement in case of delays in collections from the state discoms.

The cash collections and revenue profiles of the state-owned distribution utilities have been adversely impacted by a dip in

demand amid lockdown post the Covid-19 pandemic and hence, the progress and timeliness in payment pattern from the

offtaker utilities remain the key monitorables. Further, the liquidity relief scheme in the form of long tenure loans from Power

Finance Corporation Limited/REC Limited, which is being availed by the state-owned distribution utilities, would provide cash

flow support in the near term to correct their overdues towards the generation entities.

NTPC has sizeable expansion plans, which are being funded through a normative leveraging level. In addition, higher debt-

funded cash outflow for acquisition is expected to result in moderation of gearing and return indicators over the medium term.

The debt coverage indicators for the company remain moderate but its debt-servicing ability is likely to remain comfortable,

given the cost-plus tariff structure and tariff competitiveness of its existing power plants. Though a few of NTPC’s ongoing

projects have seen some slippages in terms of project execution, these are unlikely to have a significant impact on its debt-

servicing capabilities, given the strong cash flows from a large basket of operational power plants. However, the ability to

commission these under-construction projects and to sustain superior operating performance (of operational plants) will be a

key monitorable. In addition, NTPC’s ability to ensure fuel security for its major expansion projects as well as sustenance of

the strong collection and operating performance will remain the key rating drivers.

The Stable outlook reflects ICRA’s opinion that NTPC will continue to benefit from its cost-plus tariff operations, continued

support from the GoI and coverage under tripartite agreement for payment of discom dues.

Key rating drivers and their description

Credit strengths

Sovereign ownership and support from GoI – The rating draws comfort from the majority share of the GoI in NTPC (51.1% as

on June 30, 2020) and the continued support from the same, given NTPC’s pivotal role in the country’s power sector. Apart

from direct support, the sovereign ownership affords it significant financial flexibility in raising low-cost funds from domestic,

and more importantly, international markets.

Dominant position in domestic power sector with multi-locational facilities and diversified customer base – The NTPC Group

has a commercially operational capacity of 65,825 MW, which constitutes ~17% of the total installed capacity in the country.

In addition to the current installed capacity, the Group has an under-construction capacity of 17 GW, which includes coal-

based capacity of 11.8 GW, hydro of 2.2 GW and renewable energy capacity of 3 GW. Further, it plans to increase its RE capacity

to 60 GW by FY2032 (addition of 5-6 GW annually during the next 10 years). Given its robust capacity addition programme,

NTPC will continue to maintain a diversified customer base and dominant position in the power sector.

Cost competitiveness due to superior operating efficiencies and proximity of coal-based plants to pit heads – NTPC has

maintained cost competitiveness arising out of superior operating efficiencies and a large portfolio of operational projects,

among which it has repaid the debt for several projects, resulting in low fixed charges. Further, fuel charges have remained

competitive since most of the coal-based plants are located close to pit heads. The rationalisation of coal linkages and flexible

utilisation of coal among its various thermal stations has helped to curtail the impact of the increase in coal costs. However,

the tariff is expected to increase going forward with rising capital costs and new projects located farther away from the pit

heads.

Demonstrated project management skills – NTPC’s thermal power stations (TPSs) continue to report superior performance.

Four of the company’s TPSs were among the top 10 stations in the country in terms of plant load factor (PLF) in FY2021. The

average PLF for NTPC’s stations stood at 66% against the national average of 54.5% in FY2021.

Predictability and steadiness of cash flows – While NTPC’s coverage indicators and gearing are modest in relation to the

ratings (as reflected in DSCR, interest coverage and TD/OPBITDA), it is partly mitigated by the predictability and steadiness of

cash flows, driven by the cost-plus nature of its tariffs. NTPC’s financial profile reflects its profitable operations, owing to the

cost-plus tariff formula, operational efficiencies and its ability to meet CERC’s norms. Thus, the profitability and debt coverage

metrics of the company are expected to remain strong.

Credit challenges

Exposure to counterparty credit risk – NTPC is exposed to counterparty credit risk from most of its offtakers with weak

financial profiles. If sectoral reforms do not result in a fundamental improvement in the financial position of state power

utilities, the company’s collection performance may be impacted. However, the tripartite agreement between the GoI, state

governments and the Reserve Bank of India, which protects NTPC from payment defaults by state distribution utilities, offers

comfort. Also, the company’s significant bargaining power as India’s largest power generation company and a sufficiently

diversified customer base across the country mitigate the risk.

Challenges in tying-up adequate fuel linkage for new coal-based capacities and maintaining cost competitiveness – Risk of

shortages in coal availability and uncertainty over contract terms from its main supplier, CIL, pose challenges for NTPC to

maintain its cost competitiveness. With the addition of high-cost new plants, the average tariff is expected to increase and can

impact the tariff competitiveness of the company. Thus, the timely development of captive mines and optimal utilisation of its

pit head-based plants remain critical for preserving the cost competitiveness of NTPC’s plants.

Sustaining superior operating performance and completing ongoing projects without time or cost overruns are crucial –

While NTPC’s superior operating performance has helped it realise higher-than-normative returns (in the form of incentives),

its ability to maintain the same, given the tightened regulatory norms and fluctuating demand will be a key monitorable. With

sizeable projects under execution and increased tariff-based competition from alternate sources, the company’s ability to

complete its ongoing projects within the budgeted time and cost estimates will be critical.

Liquidity position: Strong

NTPC’s liquidity is strong supported by the regulated nature of operations (which allow for adequate recovery of fixed charges,

including debt servicing requirements). The company regularly achieves higher-than-regulated returns (aided by incentives,

LPSC, etc), which act as cushion in debt servicing. The same is also supported by its strong refinancing ability as a GoI entity.

NTPC had undrawn fund-based working capital limits of Rs. 1,645 crore as on March 31, 2021. The company had cash and

liquid funds of Rs. 3,436.8 crore at a consolidated level as on March 31, 2021.

Rating sensitivities

Positive factors – Not applicable

Negative factors – Negative pressure on NTPC’s ratings could arise if there is a change in ownership/reduction of the GoI’s

support to the company, or a significant build-up of receivables led by any adverse change in the tripartite agreement

mechanism or sustained weak financial profile of the discoms.

Analytical approach

Analytical Approach Comments

Applicable Rating Methodologies Corporate Credit Rating Methodology Rating Methodology for Thermal Power Producers Policy on Withdrawal of Credit Ratings

Parent/Group Support Rating derives comfort from sovereign ownership of the company, which affords it considerable financial flexibility; ICRA expects that the GoI will provide need-based support to the company, if and when required

Consolidation/Standalone

For arriving at the ratings, ICRA has consolidated the financials of the various Group entities (as mentioned in Annexure-2), given the close business, financial and managerial linkages among the same; the rating is therefore based on the consolidated financials of the NTPC Group

About the company

NTPC was incorporated in 1975 as a thermal generation company and is at present India’s largest power generating entity.

The total commercially operational capacity of the Group is 65,825 MW at present. The company has been accorded the status

of Maharatna PSU, which gives it considerable operating flexibility. Alongside continuing its core business of coal and gas-

based thermal generation, NTPC recently diversified (in some cases through JVs) into related activities such as consulting,

hydropower development, power trading, coal mining, and renewable projects (wind and solar).

Item No. 7 & 8: Increase in borrowing limit from ` 2,00,000 Crore to ` 2,25,000 Crore and to create charge on the assets of the Company in connection with the borrowings of the Company

NTPC is India’s largest energy conglomerate and a Maharatna Company having presence in the entire value chain of the power generation business. NTPC is primarily engaged in the business of generation of electricity from thermal, hydro or Renewable energy sources. The Company has installed capacity of 64,496 MW (including generation from subsidiaries & joint ventures) as on 31st March 2021. To strengthen its core business, the Company has diversified into the fields of Coal Mining, Consultancy, Ash utilization etc. The Company is in rapid capacity addition mode. The projects, except renewable energy projects, of the Company are to be financed by debt & equity in the ratio of 70:30. Renewable Energy Projects are financed by debt & equity in the ratio of 80:20. The main constituents of the Company’s borrowings are generally in the form of bonds/ debentures, rupee term loans from banks and financial institutions, foreign currency loans, foreign currency bonds etc.

As per the requirements of Section 180(1)(c) of the Companies Act, 2013, the shareholders of the Company by a special resolution passed at the 43rd Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 21st August 2019 had authorized Board of Directors to borrow upto ` 2,00,000 Crore i.e. in excess of paid up share capital, free reserves and balance in share premium account. Keeping in view the future Capex requirements and funds to be tied up for the same and to take care of forays into new business vertical and any unanticipated investment requirements in future, a need is felt to enhance the existing borrowing limits. It is therefore proposed to increase the prescribed limit for borrowing to ` 2,25,000 Crore from current approved limit of ` 2,00,000 Crore.

Further, in terms of the provisions of Section 180(1)(a) of the Companies Act, 2013, a Company cannot sell, lease or otherwise dispose off the whole or substantially the whole of the undertaking or undertakings of the Company without the consent of the Shareholders of the Company by way of a Special Resolution.

The large portion of capital expenditure requirement of the Company has to be funded by debt. The raising of funds through debt usually requires creation of security on the immovable/movable properties, present or future, of the Company in favour of lenders which may tantamount to otherwise disposing of the undertakings of the Company.

In view of the above, approval of the Shareholders of the Company is being sought by way of Special Resolution (s) under provisions of Section 180 (1)(c) and Section 180 (1)(a) of the Companies Act, 2013, for authorizing the Board of Directors to borrow money from time to time, exceeding the paid up share capital, free reserves and share premium of the Company provided that total amount so borrowed (apart from the temporary loans obtained from the bankers of the Company in the ordinary course of business) shall not at any time exceed ` 2,25,000 Crore and for creation of charge/mortgage on the assets of the Company in connection with the borrowings.

The Company is executing a hydro power project in the state of Uttarakhand, where all the clearances were accorded. A case was filed in Hon'ble Supreme Court of India after the natural disaster in Uttarakhand in June 2013 to review whether the various existing and ongoing hydro projects have contributed to environmental degradation. Hon'ble Supreme Court of India on 7 May 2014, ordered that no further construction shall be undertaken in the projects under consideration until further orders, which included the said hydro project ofthe Company. In the proceedings, Hon'ble Supreme Court is examining to allow few projects which have all clearances which includes the project of the Company where the work has been stopped. Aggregate cost incurred on the project up to 31 December 2021 is t

163.69 crore (31 March 2021: � 163.86 crore). Management is confident that the approval for proceeding with the project shall begranted, hence no adjustment is considered necessary in respect of the carrying value of the project.

6 The environmental clearance ("clearance") granted by the Ministry of Environment and Forest, Government of India (MoEF) for one of the Company's project consisting of three units of 800 MW each, was challenged before the National Green Tribunal (NGT). The NGT disposed off the appeal, inter alia, directing that the order of clearance be remanded to the MoEF to pass an order granting or declining clearance to the project proponent afresh in accordance with the law and the judgement of the NGT and for referring the matter to the Expert Appraisal Committee ("Committee") for its re-scrutiny, which shall complete the process within six months from the date of NGT order. NGT also directed that the environmental clearance shall be kept in abeyance and the Company shall maintain status quo in relation to the project during the period of review by the Committee or till fresh order is passed by the MoEF, whichever is earlier. The Company filed an appeal challenging the NGT order before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India which stayed the order of the NGT and the matter is sub-judice. All the units of the project have been declared commercial in the earlier years. The carrying cost of the project as at 31 December 2021 is � 14,952.78 crore (31 March 2021: � 15,115.02 crore). Management is confident that the approval for the project shall be granted, hence no adjustment is considered necessary in respect of the carrying value of the project.

7 The Company is executing a thermal power project consisting of two units of 800 MW each in the State of Telangana. The project construction commenced in the year 2016 after obtaining the requisite approval and Environment Clearance (EC) from MOEF&CC (Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change). On 27 May 2021, the National Green Tribunal (NGT) has passed an order instructing MOEF&CC to keep the EC granted for the project in abeyance for a period of seven months or till the period the re-appraisal is done and additional conditions imposed by the MOEF&CC, whichever is earlier. NGT has further directed the MOEF&CC to conduct additional studies pertaining to Environmenf Impact Assessment of the project, to be carried out through the Company, for further assessment by its Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) and get recommendations of the EAC for imposing additional conditions by the MOEF&CC, if any, on the Company for allowing the units to operate. The Company filed an appeal before Hon'ble Supreme Court of India against the directions of NGT.

The Hon'ble Supreme Court of India has passed the order on 20 July 2021 and directed that while the EC is in abeyance, various construction activities at site may be continued till the commissioning of the project and the various studies as directed by NGT are to be conducted simultaneously. NTPC has carried out the additional studies as directed by NGT and the reports are under preparation.

Both the units of the project are in advanced stage of construction and the carrying cost of the project as at 31 December 2021 is� 10,069.32 crore (31 March 2021: � 9,376.31 crore). Management is confident that the approval for the continuation of the project shall be granted, hence no adjustment is considered necessary in respect of the carrying value of the project.

8 An amount of� 694.49 crore (31 March 2021: � 700.30 crore) has been incurred upto 31 December 2021 in respect of one of the hydro power projects of the Company, the construction of which has been discontinued on the advice of the Ministry of Power (MOP), Government of India (GOI), which includes� 454.45 crore (31 March 2021: � 449.88 crore) in respect of arbitration awards challenged by the Company before the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi. In the event the Hon'ble High Court grants relief to the Company, the amount would be adjusted against provisions made in this regard. Management expects that the total cost incurred, anticipated expenditure on the safety and stabilisation measures, other recurring site expenses and interest costs as well as claims of contractors/vendors for various packages for this project will be compensated in full by the GOI. Hence, no provision is considered necessary.

9 The Company had entered into an agreement for movement of coal through inland waterways for one of its stations. As per the agreement, the operator was to design, finance, build, operate and maintain the unloading and material handling infrastructure for 7 years, after which it was to be transferred to the Company at � 1/-. After commencement of the operations, the operator had raised several disputes, invoked arbitration and raised substantial claims on the Company. Based on the interim arbitral award and subsequent directions of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, an amount of� 356.31 crore was paid upto 31 March 2019.

Further, the Arbitral Tribunal had awarded a claim of � 1,891.09 crore plus applicable interest in favour of the operator, during the financial year 2018-19. The Company aggrieved by the arbitral award and considering legal opinion obtained, had filed an appeal before the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi (Hon'ble High Court) against the said arbitral award in its entirety.

In the financial year 2019-20, against the appeal of the Company, Hon'ble High Court directed the Company to deposit� 500.00 crore with the Registrar General of the Court. The said amount was deposited with the Hon'ble High Court on 5 November 2019. Hon'ble High Court vide its order dated 8 January 2020 directed the parties to commence formal handing over of the infrastructure in the presence of appointed Local Commissioner and also directed release of � 500.00 crore to the operator by the Registrar General subject to verification of bank guarantee and outcome of the application of the Company for formal handing over of the infrastructure. On 17 January 2020 unconditional BG was submitted by the operator to Registrar General and � 500.00 crore was released to the operator by the Hon'ble High Court. As per order of Hon'ble High Court, formal handing over of the infrastructure started on 20 January 2020 at the project site. However, due to certain local administrative issues initially and further due to Covid-19 pandemic, Local Commissioner's visit had to be deferred.

In view of delay in the handover exercise, NTPC had filed an Application in Hon'ble High Court praying to pass further directions to operator in this regard. Hon'ble High Court on 11 November 2020 disposed off the application requesting the Ld. Local Commissioner appointed by the Court, to visit the project site expeditiously preferably within 2 weeks and carry out the commission. The handing over exercise has been delayed due to operator's issues with local labours at the site and Covid situation. Date of hearing at Hon'ble High Court of Delhi has been adjourned several times in light of restricted functioning of the Hon'ble High Court in view of Covid-19 situation and the same is expected to take place in March 2022.

10 In line with the directions of MOP issued in accordance with the announcement of GOI under the Atmanirbhar Bharat Special Economic and Comprehensive package, a rebate on the capacity charges during the lockdown period in view of Covid 19 pandemic, was accounted during the previous year 2020-21 and disclosed as exceptional item.

11 During the quarter and year ended 31 March 2021, excess tax provision of� 1,889.05 crore was reversed consequent to adjustment of tax provision created in accordance with Vivad se Vishwas Scheme (VsVs Scheme) notified through 'The Direct Tax Vivad Se Vishwas Act, 2020'. Correspondingly, sales amounting to � 1,101.47 crore was reversed on account of income tax recoverable from / (refundable to) the beneficiaries as per Regulations, 2004.

This standard requires that we plan and perform the reviewto obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review is limitedprimarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thusprovide less assurance than an audit.

3. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement(SRE) 2410, 'Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of theEntity', issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and also considering the requirementof Standard on Auditing (SA 600) on 'Using the work of Another Auditor' including materiality. Areview of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible forfinancial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review issubstantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing andconsequently does not enabl'e us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significantmatters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

We also performed procedures in accordance with the Circular issued by the Securities and Exchange Board oflndia under Regulation 33(8) of the Regulations, to the extent applicable.

5. Based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph 3 above and based onthe consideration of the review reports of other auditors referred to in paragraph 7(a) below, nothing hascome to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordancewith the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standardspecified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended, read with relevant rules issuedthereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the informationrequired to be disclosed in terms of the Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed,or that it contains any material misstatement.

4 The Company is executing a hydro power project in the state of Uttarakhand, where all the clearances were accorded. A case was filed in Hon'ble Supreme Court of India after the natural disaster in Uttarakhand in June 2013 to review whether the various existing and ongoing hydro projects have contributed to environmental degradation. Hon'ble Supreme Court of India on 7 May 2014, ordered that no further construction shall be undertaken in the projects under consideration until further orders, which included the said hydro project of the Company. In the proceedings, Hon'ble Supreme Court is examining to allow few projects which have all clearances which includes the project of the Company where the work has been stopped.

NGT also directed that the environmental clearance shall be kept ·in abeyance and the Company shall maintain status quo in relation to the project during the period of· review by the Committee or till fresh order is passed by the MoEF, whichever is earlier. The Company filed an appeal challenging the NGT order before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India which stayed the order of the NGT andthe matter is sub-judice. All the units of the project have been declared commercial in the earlier years. The carrying cost of the projectas at 30 September 2021 is� 14,968.92 crore (31 March 2021: :!' 15,115.02 crore). Management is confident that the approval for theproject shall be granted. hence no adjustment is considered necessary in respect of the carrying value of the project.

8 The Company had entered into an agreement for movement of coal through inland waterways for one of its stations. As per the agreement, the operator was to design, finance, build, operate and maintain the unloading and material handling infrastructure for 7 years, after which it was to be transferred to the Company at � 1/-. After commencement of the operations. the operator had raised several disputes. invoked arbitration and raised substantial claims on the Company. Based on the interim arbitral award and subsequent directions of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India. an amount of� 356 31 crore was paid upto 31 March 2019.

Further, the Arbitral Tribunal had awarded a claim of � 1,891.09 crore plus applicable interest in favour of the operator, during the financial year 2018-19. The Company aggrieved by the arbitral award and considering legal opinion obtained, had filed an appeal before the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi (Hon'ble High Court) against the said arbitral award in its entirety.

In the financial year 2019-20, against the appeal of the Company, Hon'ble High Court directed the Company to deposit� 500.00 crore with the Registrar General of the Court. The said amount was deposited with the Hon'ble High Court on 5 November 2019. Hon'ble High Court vide its order dated 8 January 2020 directed the parties to commence formal handing over of the infrastructure in the presence of appointed Local Commissioner and also directed release of � 500.00 crore to the operator by the Registrar General subject to verification of bank guarantee and outcome of the application of the Company for formal handing over of the infrastructure. On 17 January 2020 unconditional BG was submitted by the operator to Registrar General and � 500.00 crore was released to the operator by the Hon'ble High Court. As per order of Hon'ble High Court, formal handing over of the infrastructure started on 20 January 2020 at the project site. However, due to certain local administrative issues initially and further due to Covid-19 pandemic, Local Commissioner's visit had to be deferred. In view of delay in the handover exercise, NTPC had filed an Application in Hon'ble High Court praying to pass further directions to operator in this regard. Hon'ble High Court on 11 November 2020 disposed off the application requesting the Ld. local Commissioner appointed by the Court. to visit the project site expeditiously preferably within 2 weeks and carry out the commission. The handing over exercise has been delayed due to operator's issues with local labours at the site and Covid situation. Date of hearing at Hon'ble High Court of Delhi has been adjourned several times in light of restricted functioning of the Hon'ble High Court in view of Covid-19 situation and the same is expected to take place shortly.

Pending final disposal of the appeal by the Hon'ble High Court, considering the provisions of Ind AS 37 'Provisions.

6 The environmental clearance ("clearance") granted by the Ministry of Environment and Forest, Government of India (MoEF) for one of the Company's project consisting of three units of 800 MW each, was challenged before the National Green Tribunal (NGT). The NGT disposed off the appeal, inter alia, directing that the order of clearance be remanded to the MoEF to pass an order granting .or declining clearance to the project proponent afresh in accordance with the law and the judgement of the NGT and for referring the matter to the Expert Appraisal Committee ("Committee") for its re-scrutiny, which shall complete the process within six months from the date of NGT order. NGT also directed that the environmental clearance shall be kept in abeyance and the Company shall maintain status quo in relation to the project during the period of review by the Committee or till fresh order is passed by the MoEF, whichever is earlier. The Company filed an appeal challenging the NGT order before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India which stayed the order of the NGT and the matter is sub-judice. All the units of the project have been declared commercial in the earlier years. The carrying cost of the project as at 30 September 2021 is t 14,968.92 crore (31 March 2021: t 15,115.02 crore).

7 The Company is executing a thermal power project consisting of two units of 800 MW each in the State of Telangana. The project construction commenced in the year 2016 after obtaining the requisite approval and Environment Clearance (EC) from MOEF&CC (Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change). On 27 May 2021, the National Green Tribunal (NGT) has passed an order instructing MOEF&CC to keep the EC granted for the project in abeyance for a period of seven months or till the period the re-appraisal is done and additional conditions imposed by the MOEF&CC, whichever is earlier. NGT has further directed the MOEF&CC to conduct additional studies pertaining to Environment Impact Assessment of the project, to be carried out through the Company. for further assessment by its Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) and get recommendations of the EAC for imposing additional conditions by the MOEF&CC, if any, on the company for allowing the units to operate. The Company filed an appeal before Hon'ble Supreme Court of India against the directions of NGT. The Hon'ble Supreme Court of India has passed the order on 20 July 2021 and directed that while the EC is in abeyance, various construction activities at site may be continued till the commissioning of the project and the various studies as directed by NGT are to be conducted simultaneously.

Both the units of the project are in advanced stage of construction and the carrying cost of the project as at 30 September 2021 is t9,815.14 crore (31 March 2021: t 9,376.31 crore).

As per the agreement. the operator was to design, finance. build, operate and maintain the unloading and material handling infrastructure for 7 years, after which it was to be transferred to the Company at t 1/-. After commencement of the operations, the operator had raised several disputes, invoked arbitration and raised substantial claims on the Company.

On 17 January 2020 unconditional BG was submitted by the operator to Registrar General and � 500.00 crore was released to the operator by the Hon'ble High Court. As per order of Hon'ble High Court, formal handing over of the infrastructure started on 20 January 2020 at the project site. However, due to certain local administrative issues initially and further due to Covid-19 pandemic, Local Commissioner's visit had to be deferred. In view of delay in the handover exercise, NTPC had filed an Application in Hon'ble High Court praying to pass further directions to operator in this regard. Hon'ble High Court on 11 November 2020 disposed off the application requesting the Ld. Local Commissioner appointed by the Court. to visit the project site expeditiously preferably within 2 weeks and carry out the commission. The handing over exercise has been delayed due to operator's issues with local labours at the site and Covid situation. Date of hearing at Hon'ble High Court of Delhi has been adjourned several times in light of restricted functioning of the Hon'ble High Court in view of Covid-19 situation and the same is expected to take place shortly.

service as emphasized by the Ministry of Power (MOP), Government of India (GOI). By taking a number of proactive steps and keeping tn view the safety of all its stakeholders, the Company has ensured the availability of its power plants to generate power and has : continued to supply power during the period of lockdown. On the directions of MOP, the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) issued an order dated 3 April 2020 whereby it directed that Late Payment Surcharge (LPSC) shall apply at a reduced rate of 12% p.a. instead of the normal rate of 18% p.a. if any delayed payment beyond 45 days from the date of presentation of the bills falls btween 24 March 2020 and 30 June 2020. Accordingly, the LPSC for the year 2020-21 is expected to be lower by f 58.00 crore appmximately.Further as per the directions of MOP dated 15 & 16 May 2020, issued in accordance with the announcement of GO1 under theAtmanirbhar Bharat special economic and comprehensive package, the Company has decided to defer the capacity charges of f2,064.00 crore to DISCOMS for the lock- down period on account of,COVlD-19 pandemic for the power not schedukd by the OISCOMs, to h payable without interest after Ule end of the lodrdwvn period in three equal monthly instalments and has allowed a rebate of f 1,363.00 mote on the capacity charges billed during the lockdown period to DlSCOMs on account of COVID-19, in the financial year 2020-21. These amounts are provisional and may vary due to reconciliation of related data. Due to the above, there is no material impact on the profits of the Company for the year ended 31 Match 2020. The Company believes that the impact due to the outbreak of COVID-19 is likely to be short-term in nature and does not anticipate any medium to long-term risks in the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and meeting Its liabilities as and when they fall due. Impact assessment of ,COVID-19 is a continuing process considering the uncertainty involved thereon. The company will continue to closely monitor any material changes to the future economic conditions.

A case was filed ' in Honble Supreme Court of lndia after the natural disaster in Uttrakhand in June 2013 to review whether the various existing and " ongoing hydro projects have contributed to environmental degradation. Hon'ble Supreme Court of lndia on 7 May 2014. ordered that no

further construction shall be undertaken in the projects under consideration until further orders, which included the said hydro project of the Company. In the proceedings, Hon'ble Supreme Court is examining to allow few projects which have all clearances which includes the project of the Company where the work has been stopped. Aggregate cost incurrd on the project up to 31 March 2020 is f 163.40 crore (31 March 2019: f 163.33 wore). Management is confident that the appmval for proceeding with the project shall be granted. hence no provision is considered necessary.

Management expects that the total cost incurred, anticipated expenditure on the safety and stabilisation measures, other recurring site expenses and interest costs as well as claims of contractorslvendors for various packages for this project will be compensated in full by the GOI. Hence, no provision is considered necessary.

10 The Company had entered into an agreement for movement of coal through inland waterways for one of its stations. As per the agreement, the operator was to design, finance, build, operate and maintain the unloading and material handling infrastructure for 7 yean after which it was to be transferred to the Company at I/-. After wrnrnoncement of the operations, the operator had raised several disputes, invoked arbitration and raised substantial claims on the Company. Based on the interim arbitral award and subsequent directions of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, an amount of F356.31 more was paid upto 31 March 2039. In the previous year, the Arbitral Tribunal had awarded ,a claim of ? 1,891.09 crow plus applicable interest in favour of the operator. The Company aggrieved by the arbitral award and considering legal, opinion obtained, had fited an appeal before the Hon'ble High Court of Oelhi (Hon'ble High Court) against the said arbitral award in its entirety.

3 The Group has adopted In4 AS 116 'Leases' effective 1 April 2019, using modified retrospective approach and therefore the cornparatfives have no1 been restated. On the date of initial application, the lease liability has been rneasured at the present value of the remaining lease payments and rrght of use assets has been recognized at an amount equal to the lease liabilities. Applmtion of Ind AS 116 does not have any material impact on the financial results of the Group.

14 Due to outbreak of COVID-19 globally and in India, the Group has made an initial assessment of itslikely adverse impact on business and its associated financial risks.The Group is mainly in the business of generation and sale of electricity which is an essential service as emphasized by the Ministry of Power (MOP), Government of India (GOl) By taking a number of proactive steps and keeping in view the safety of all its Stakeholders, the Group has ensured we availability of its power plants to generate power and has contmued to supply power during the period of lockdown.

On the directions of MOP, the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) issued an order dated 3 April 2020 whereby it directed that Late Payment Surcharge (LPSC) shall apply at a reduced rate of 12% p.a. instead of the normal rate of 18% p.a, if any delayed payment beyond 45 days from the date of presentation of the bills falls between 24 March 2020 and 30 June 2020. Accordingly, the LPSC for the year 2020-21 is expected to be lower by f 58.88 crore approximately.Further as per the directions of MOP dated 15 & 16 May 2020, issued in accordance with the announcement of GO1 under theAtrnanirbhar Bhant special economic and comprehensive package, the Group has decided to defer the capacity charges of 1'2,670.30 crore to DlSCOMs for the I&-down perrod on account of COVID-19 pandemlc for the power not scheduled by the DISCOMs, to be payable without interest after the end of the lockdown period in three equal monthly instalments and has allowed a rebate of f 1,586.70 crore on the capa$ity charges billed during the lock-down period to DlSCOMs on account of COViD-19, in the financial year 2020-21.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Statement

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Financial Results as a whole, are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Standalone Financial Results.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Financial Results,whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks,and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for oneresulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design auditprocedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under Section 143{3) rn of the Act, weare also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internalfinancial controls with reference to Standalone Financial Statements in place and the operatingeffectiveness of such controls.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accountingestimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors use of the going concern basis ofaccounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty existsrelated to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Cornpanytocontinue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are requiredto draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Statement or, if suchdisclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the auditevidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditionsmay cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Standalone Financial Results,including the disclosures, and whether the Standalone Financial Results represent theunderlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Other Matter

. -

(i) As per CERC Regulations,. 2014, the power utilities of the Group are entitled to a fixed return on its investment, net &.tax. Consequently, tax is a pass-through cost. A practice was followed by recognising an asset ('Deferred assets for Deferred tax l iab i l i l for the tax liability recognised in the financial statements which is recoverable from the beneficiaries. The Group used to offset d&trelIf asset for deferred tax liability recognised with the deferred tax liabilities (Net) and income on account of deferred asset for deferred tax liability was also offset with the tax expense recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

<. e

Dur~ng the year, based on an opinion pronounced by EAC of ICAI, the Group has recognised Deferred asset for Deferr&tax.li&iity a$ a regulatory deferral account debitlcredit balance in accordance with Ind AS 114, Regulatory Deferral Accounts. I

As a result, regulatory deferral account debiicredit balance has increased with a corresponding increase in Deferred tax liabiliis , . (Net) as under: . . a , ( .

Accordingly. R&R expenditure incurred for development activities associaW wiftr the project capitalized as cost of land have been reviewed. This has resulted in decrease in property,plant and equipvent as at 31 Y~rcih 201 8 by f 1,293.04 crore ( I April 201 7:f 1,619.36 crore) with corresponding increase in capital work-in progress to the same extent on standalone and consolidated basis.

The tdal dividend (including interim dividend) for the financial year 2018-19 is t 6.08 per equity share (par value 7 106- each).

I 4 The Company has issued 164,90,92,880 equity shares o f t 101- each as fully paid bonus shares during the year ended 31 b&h,'2019 in the ratio of one equity share of t 101- each for every fnie equity shares held.

Details of impairment loss on investment in subsidiaries and joint venture companies

In respect of investment in Konkan LNG Limited (KLL), the impairment provision accounted upto 31 March 2020 amounting to `

103.47 crore has been written back consequent to disposal of investment in KLL during the year.

In respect of investment in Trincomalee Power Company Limited , provision for impairment on investments has been recognised at `

14.14 crore (31 March 2020: Nil ).

In respect of investment in NTPC BHEL Power Project Pvt. Ltd., provision for impairment on investments has been recognised at `

50.00 crore (31 March 2020: ` 50.00 crore).

The Company has investments in M/s Ratnagiri Gas & Power Pvt. Ltd. (RGPPL), an erstwhile joint venture of the Company. RGPPLhad incurred losses during last few years which has resulted in substantial erosion of net worth of RGPPL. Also, value of RGPPL'sassets had declined significantly more than would be expected as a result of the passage of time or normal use. Further, Power Block(CGU) of RGPPL is not operating at its installed capacity from last many years. The recoverable amount of this investment wasassessed at ` 18.06 crore and accordingly the Company had provision for impairment of ` 816.49 crore in respect of such investmentas at 31 March 2020. During the year, the assessment of impairment of its investment in RGPPL has been carried out by anindependent expert, impact of which is explained below:

Recoverable amount is based on the value in use as its fair value less cost of disposals cannot be estimated.

Recoverable amount of investment in RGPPL has been assessed at ` Nil and is based on the present value of future cash flowsexpected to be derived from gas based power plant of RGPPL till 31 March 2039. The period is based on the estimated useful life ofthe power plant. Decrease in recoverable amount of investment in RGPPL is due to decrease in the value in use as compared to theprevious year. This has led to addition in provision for impairment by ` 18.06 crore in the current year (31 March 2020: impairmentprovision of ` 41.47 crore).

Following are the key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount of investment: - Capacity : 1,967 MW (31 March 2020: 1,967 MW)- Auxiliary consumption : 2.00% (31 March 2020: 2.00 %)- Plant Load Factor (PLF) : 25.40% (31 March 2020: 25.40%)- Tariff : INR 5.5/kwh (31 March 2020: INR 5.5/kwh) (gross of transmission charges and losses) No growth rates have been assumed and the past experience have been considered for future cash flows which are expected to bederived. The post-tax discount rate used for the future cash flows is 12.50% (31 March 2020: 11.50%). RGPPL has become a subsidiary during the year.
