A ₹0.07 (~$0.0008)/kWh trading margin and the discovered tariff have become a bone of contention between renewable energy implementing agencies (REIAs) and buying entities. As intermediary procurers, REIAs charge a trading margin from state distribution companies and other buying entities. This trading margin is intended to cover the costs for releasing solar, wind, hybrid, energy storage, and firm dispatchable renewable energy tenders, conducting competitive bidding processes and entering into power purchase agreements and power sale agreements with purchasing entities.
