PRESS RELEASE

In line with its ongoing ESG journey and commitment to improve its carbon footprint and obtain energy from cleaner sources, Arvind Limited (“Arvind”) has entered into a Share Subscription and Shareholders' Agreement with Torrent Green Energy Private Limited (“Sponsor”) and its subsidiary, Torrent Urja 28 Private Limited (“TUPL”).
As part of this agreement, Arvind alongwith other User Members will subscribe Equity Shares of Rs.10/- each in TUPL, representing minimum 26% of its total equity share capital, thereby meeting the regulatory requirement of “captive user” under applicable electricity laws. The Company will invest 15.96% of equity share capital of TUPL towards its proportionate share in the capacity.
The investment will support the development of 20 MW hybrid (wind-solar) power project for Arvind’s captive requirement.
Arvind signed a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with a Take-or-Pay arrangement for the supply of renewable energy. Post commissioning, this project will enable Arvind to source approximately 60% of its total electricity requirements from renewable sources.
Salient points of agreement:
-
Arvind will avail power from the project at a landed cost of ₹5 per unit, ensuring savings vis a vis cost of power from grid and the payback for the investment is less than 2 years.
-
EBITDA enhancement: The initiative is projected to improve Arvind’s consolidated EBITDA margin by approximately 30-40 basis points by FY27.
-
Turnkey execution: Torrent Green will be solely responsible for the erection, commissioning, operations & maintenance, and securing regulatory approvals for the plant.
-
Project timeline: The project is expected to be completed within 17 months from the effective date, tentatively by Q3 FY27.
This initiative reinforces Arvind’s commitment to sustainability, self-reliance in sourcing energy, and cost optimization and to reduce its carbon footprint and move towards its goal of being carbon neutral aligning with the company’s broader environmental goals and longterm vision of being fundamentally right.
