The NTPC Limited (National Thermal Power Corporation) is India’s largest power utility, specializing in the generation of electricity through thermal, hydro, and renewable energy sources. As a Maharatna public sector enterprise, NTPC plays a key role in meeting the country’s growing energy needs with a focus on sustainability and power generation efficiency.

During a recent investor call, NTPC management outlined plans to award thermal capacity additions of up to 13.6 GW by the fiscal year 2026-27, in addition to the 11.16 GW of thermal capacity currently under construction. In line with India’s growing energy demands, the government aims to add 80 GW of thermal power capacity by 2031-32.
