Order book

The transcript does not explicitly mention the current or expected order book or pending orders for Orient Green Power. However, from the context, the following insights can be inferred regarding their project pipeline and bidding outlook: - Recent bidding rounds for solar and solar-wind hybrid projects (1,200 MW each) have seen lukewarm response (~500-600 MW bids). - Competitive bidding tariffs are capped by the government, leading to reduced investor interest and delayed installations. - Uncertainty persists post-elections, with expectations of tariff increases by 10-15 paise in the next year. - Financial closure challenges exist for some tendered projects, notably in Tamil Nadu. - Management is optimistic about the wind segment growth and plans to expand with an additional 44 MW at the Tadipatri site, pending tariff clarity. - Focus remains on operational performance improvement and debt refinancing rather than aggressive expansion currently. No specific orderbook size or value is disclosed.
