RESEARCH METHODOLOGY OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY:- To study the relative benefits of appraising the thermal
project through balance sheet financing or financing via creating a special purpose entity & making comparative analysis on the basis of cost & benefits.
LIMITATION OF STUDY:- This study is done from the perspective of NTPC Ltd. only.- Generic Approach in case of Project Assumptions.
METHODOLOGY ADOPTED:- Data collection is purely Secondary.- The analysis has been carried out on the basis of Project
information, Assumptions & other necessary details given by NTPC.

ASSUMPTIONS Gross capacity of power plant is at 1000 MW(500 * 2) COD of unit I is assumed to occur after 56 months from the date of
main plant & unit –II is 6 months onwards (62 months after the contract)
Date of project cost has to be taken at 30 Nov 2016 Rupee term loan: equity ratio is assumed to be 70:30 Plant load factor is taken at 85 % Auxiliary consumption is assumed at 7 % of the gross energy
generated. Tariff has been taken as CERC (terms & conditions for determination
of tariff ) regulation prevalent currently(except escalation in tax & O & M cost)
Interest in case of debt under balance sheet financing - 11% Depreciation to be charged on the total cost assuming that total cost
(except land cost) incurred on plant to be phased out in equal proportion on both the units.
ROE & O & M expenses calculations of Unit I & II we take in equal proportions.

Interest in case of SPV route is- 12 % Repayment in case of balance sheet financing -8 years ( 4 yrs after
starting the project) Interest in case of working capital financing from bank is taken at
11.75 % Secondary fuel consumption is taken at 1 ml/Kwh Cost of coal = Rs. 850/1000 kg(primary fuel ) Cost of secondary fuel = Rs. 40/1000 ml with an annual escalation
of 0 %. O & M expenses has been assumed at 0.125 Cr/MW with an annual
escalation of 0 % Working capital requirements has been assumed as 1 month ;O& M
expenses ;spares =20 % of O & M expenses & coal cost & secondary fuel cost (2 months value taken)
Company act depreciation -5.28 %; subject to the asset being depreciated till 95 % of cost price.
CERC depreciation -5.28 % p.a. SLM for first 12 years & then spread evenly over the balanced life of the project.
The project life is assumed to be 25 years in line with the CERC guidelines prevalent currently.

CONCLUSION Balance Sheet Financing is the Favoured mode of
Financing for the Company due to following reasons:
- Long experience of the Company in Operation of Power plants
- Strong Balance Sheet
- Lower risk due to long term PPA which combines to allow the company to raise loans at significantly lower rates.
All these reasons helps to reduce the WACC of the company and it enjoys decent long term returns.
