This IPO is strategically designed to raise substantial funds, which will primarily support investments in NTPC Renewable Energy Limited (NREL) and contribute to general corporate purposes.

The company, fully owned by NTPC, submitted its IPO documentation to SEBI on September 18, marking an important step in NTPC Green Energy’s strategy to bolster its financial resources for future growth.

The funds raised through the IPO, predominantly Rs 7,500 crore, are earmarked for strategic investment in NTPC Renewable Energy Limited (NREL), alongside a focus on debt repayment or prepayment to reduce financial liabilities. NTPC Green Energy intends to utilise the remaining funds for various corporate initiatives, enhancing its financial flexibility to pursue ambitious renewable energy projects.
