*Note: The loan of ` 570.18 crore to RGPPL has not been recognized in the books due to uncertainty involved therein.

v) Consultancy services provided by the Company to subsidiary and joint venture companies are generally on nomination basis at the terms, conditions and principles applicable for consultancy services provided to other parties.

vi) Outstanding balances of subsidiary and joint venture companies at the year-end are unsecured, except in respect of loan to RGPPL which is secured and settlement occurs through banking transaction. These balances other than loans are interest free. The Company has not recorded any impairment of receivables relating to amounts owed by related parties. This assessment is undertaken in each financial year through examining the financial position of the related party and the market in which the related party operates.

f) Details of impairment loss on investment in subsidiaries and joint venture companies

i) The Company has investments in M/s Ratnagiri Gas & Power Pvt. Ltd. (RGPPL), an erstwhile joint venture of the Company. RGPPL had incurred losses during last few years which has resulted in substantial erosion of net worth of RGPPL. Also, value of RGPPL's assets had declined significantly more than would be expected as a result of the passage of time or normal use. Further, Power Block (CGU) of RGPPL is not operating at its installed capacity from last many years. The recoverable amount of this investment was assessed at 18.06 crore and accordingly the Company had provision for impairment of 816.49 crore in respect of such investment as at 31 March 2020. During the year, the assessment of impairment of its investment in RGPPL has been carried out by an independent expert, impact of which is explained below:

Recoverable amount is based on the value in use as its fair value less cost of disposals cannot be estimated.

Recoverable amount of investment in RGPPL has been assessed at Nil and is based on the present value of future cash flows expected to be derived from gas based power plant of RGPPL till 31 March 2039. The period is based on the estimated useful life of the power plant. Decrease in recoverable amount of investment in RGPPL is due to decrease in the value in use as compared to the previous year. This has led to addition in provision for impairment by 18.06 crore in the current year (31 March 2020: impairment provision of ` 41.47 crore).

Following are the key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount of investment:

  • Capacity : 1,967 MW (31 March 2020: 1,967 MW)

  • Auxiliary consumption : 2.00% (31 March 2020: 2.00 %)

  • Plant Load Factor (PLF) : 25.40% (31 March 2020: 25.40%)

  • Tariff : INR 5.5/kwh (31 March 2020: INR 5.5/kwh) (gross of transmission charges and losses)

No growth rates have been assumed and the past experience have been considered for future cash flows which are expected to be derived.

The post-tax discount rate used for the future cash flows is 12.50% (31 March 2020: 11.50%).

RGPPL has become a subsidiary during the year.

  • ii) In respect of investment in NTPC BHEL Power Project Pvt. Ltd., provision for impairment on investments has been recognised at **50.00 crore** (31 March 2020: 50.00 crore).
  • iii) In respect of investment in Trincomalee Power Company Limited , provision for impairment on investments has been recognised at ` 14.14 crore (31 March 2020: Nil ).
  • iv) In respect of investment in Konkan LNG Limited (KLL), the impairment provision accounted upto 31 March 2020 amounting to ` 103.47 crore has been written back consequent to disposal of investment in KLL during the year.

g) Restrictions on disposal of investment and commitmment towards further investments in the subsidiary and joint venture companies

i) In respect of investments in subsidiary companies (including share application money pending allotment), the Company has restrictions for their disposal as at 31 March 2021 as under:
