The APTEL, vide its order dated 7th April, 2016 decided that the promulgation of Indonesian regulations as also the non-availability / short supply of domestic coal constitute a Force Majeure event under the PPAs, and has directed the CERC to assess the extent of impact of such Force Majeure events on the project, and give such relief as may be available under the respective PPAs. We expect that implementation of the APTEL order will improve the cashflow and gearing of the Company.
