(I Qtr.97).price of power is expected to be at Rs. 2.10 as against to the price from private power generation companies which was at Rs. 3 - 4 per unit.

SWOTSTRENGTHS Largest market share in domestic power generation and a broad customer

portfolio across the country. Highly skilled and experienced human resources, exposed to state-of-the art

technologies in project execution and power generation. Navaratna status .

WEAKNESS Functional orientation hampering cross functional perspective in decision making. Long and multi layered procurement process leading to long lead times and

process delay. Gaps in HR systems such as performance management, rewards and incentives

and career development

CONT….OPPURTUNITIES Expand generation capacities by putting up thermal and hydro capacities;

maintain the position of a dominant generating utility in the Indian Power sector. Backward integrate into fuel management to exercise greater control and

understanding of supply economics. Execute increased number of power plants that classify for Mega Power Projects

status, thereby reducing the cost of the projects and power and power generated.

THREATS Stringent norms for approval of increase in capital costs for projects in

event of time overrun. Stringent environmental norms in the future may add to the cost of

generation. Absence of an independent regular for coal industry and the delay in

private investments lending to the risk of low availability of coal in the future

There are no retailers or distributors. Everything is taken care by the government since it is a State-owned company.

Supply of electric products are done by BHEL which is also a government owned enterprise.

Simhadri.

§ CHALLENGES WITH COAL RESOURCES The policy changes in coal sector provide an opportunity to NTPC to enter captive coal

mining business. Ash Utilization is one of the key concerns at NTPC.
