A Tata Power NSE -0.80 % subsidiary and two other renewable energy producers have moved the Supreme Court, requesting the transfer of their case from Andhra Pradesh High Court, where they are contesting the unilateral tariff reduction and non-payment of dues by the state and its power distribution company.
In July 2019, the YSR Congress-led government in Andhra Pradesh said it will renegotiate wind and solar power purchase agreements signed by the previous administration, citing high tariffs. The developers declined to renegotiate and took the state to court, which led to a logjam and accumulating dues.
