Tamil Nadu on Friday said it owed no dues to power generators and insisted there was no mechanism in an online portal of the Union government for this purpose to share the state’s response on the matter.
Power System Operation Corporation (POSOCO) Limited on Thursday asked three power exchanges — IEX, PXIL and HPX — to restrict electricity trading by 27 distribution companies in 13 states, including Tamil Nadu, having outstanding dues towards generating companies (gencos).
State Electricity Minister V Senthil Balaji said the Union Power Ministry’s stipulated monthly dues of Rs 361 crore has already been paid on August 4, 2022.
