NTPC invites 2 million tonne coal import tender
State-run power generation company NTPC has invited tenders to import 2 million tonne (MT) of coal, soon after the Centre asked power plants to step up imports of the key fuel for thermal power.
NTPC plants will use 1 MT imported coal, and the tender for the remaining volume has been floated on behalf of the power plants of Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC), jointly owned by the Centre and the state governments of Jharkhand and West Bengal.
