The Adani group had thrown its hat into a bidding process for a Bengal government-sponsored power project, renewing the conglomerate’s ties with the state where it had won the contract for the Tajpur port development last year.
The Adani group was among a clutch of five entities, which included Sajjan Jindal’s JSW group, which participated in the pre-bid meeting for the 900-megawatt Bandu pumped storage project. The Mamata Banerjee government has floated a tender for the selection of a developer of the renewable energy venture which entails an investment of Rs 6,500 crore.
Apart from Adani and JSW, other bidders that joined the pre-bid meeting were Greenko, India Power and Andritz Hydro.
