The Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL), in a recent order, has ruled in favor of a solar developer, allowing a 15-month extension for a delayed solar project. Of the total extension given, the Tribunal granted ten months of additional time frame on account of the ‘force majeure’ event due to the unavailability of the transmission system. Further five months’ extension has been allowed due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the subsequent lockdown last year.
