What was filed
Power Grid Corporation of India informed the BSE and NSE, under Regulation 30 of the SEBI LODR Regulations, that the project titled "Transmission Scheme for Solar Energy Zone in Bidar (2500 MW), Karnataka (TBCB)" has been completely commissioned. The company said the Notification for Commercial Operation (DOCO) dated 5 October 2026 was received via email on 8 October 2026.
Structure behind the project
The project was originally entrusted to POWERGRID Bidar Transmission Limited, then a wholly owned subsidiary of the company. Per the filing, that entity has since been amalgamated with POWERGRID Khavda II-C Transmission Limited with effect from 1 March 2026, following an order dated 27 January 2026 from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. The scheme was awarded under the Tariff Based Competitive Bidding (TBCB) route.
Why it matters to a holder
Commissioning marks the point at which a transmission asset begins commercial operation, which is when it typically starts earning tariff revenue. The filing discloses no financial figures — no project cost, tariff, or revenue — so the direct financial impact is not quantified here. It confirms the operational readiness of infrastructure connecting a large solar generation zone to the grid.
