Pact signed in 2016

In 2016, Suzlon Group and AMP Solar had signed a pact, with the Canadian firm acquiring a minority stake of 49 per cent in Rudra Solarfarms. The contract also included an option that says the Canadian firm can acquire the remaining 51 per cent stake in the future. The counter party of the solar project is the electricity distribution company owned by the Government of Telangana – Telangana State Southern Power Distribution Company Limited (TSSPDCL).

For the financial year 2017-18, Rudra Solarfarms recorded a turnover of Rs 123 million and the company’s net worth was Rs 90.8 million.
