Pass-Through Items

i)

"No provision for income tax, workers' profit participation fund and workers'
welfare fund, any other tax, excise duty or other duty, levy, charge, surcharge or
other governmental impositions, payable on the generation, sales, exploration
has been accounted for in the tariff. If HUBCO-Narowal is obligated to pay
any tax on the income purely generated from its operation i.e. Electricity
Generation of power producer, the exact amount should be reimbursed by
CPPA on production of original receipts. This payment may be considered as
pass-through (as Rs./kW/hour) hourly payment spread over a 12 months period
in addition to the capacity purchase price in the Reference Tariff. Furthermore,
in such a scenario, HUBCO-Narowal may also submit to CPPA details of any
tax shield savings and CPPA will deduct the amount of these savings from its
payment to HUBCO-Narowal on account of taxation.

ii)
as

Withholding tax on dividend is also a pass-through item just like other taxes
indicated in the government guidelines for determination of tariff for new IPPs.
In a reference tariff table withholding tax number is indicated as reference
and CPPA (NTDC) shall make payment on account of withholding tax at
the time of actual payment of dividend subject to maximum of 7.5% of 15%
reference equity i.e. hourly payment (Rs./kW/hour) spread over a 12 month
period according to the following formula:
Withholding Tax Payable = [[15% * (E(Ref) E(Red)) +ROEDC(Reo] *
7.5% Where:
E(Ref)

Adjusted Reference Equity at COD

E(Red)

Equity Redeemed

ROEDC(Reo= Reference Return on Equity During Construction


iii)
In case Company does not declare a dividend in a particular year or only
declares a
partial dividend, then the difference in the withholding tax amount (between
what is paid in that year and the total entitlement as per the Net Return on
Equity) would be carried forward and accumulated so that the Company is able
to recover the same in hourly payments spread over 12 months period as a
pass through from the Power Purchaser in future on the basis of the total
dividend pay out.

PROJECT COST

8.1

EPC Cost

8.1.1
The petitioner submitted that EPC cost was 149.500 million
comprising of
Equipment Supply Contract (ESC) price of 135.60 million or US$173.57
(converted at the reference exchange rate of Euro 1 = USD 1.28) and the
Construction Contract
(CC) price of 13.90 million or US$ 17.79 million (converted
at
the
reference exchange rate of Euro 1 = USD 1.28). According to the petitioner its
ESC was lump sum cost and included the cost of 11 diesel engine generating
sets with one steam turbine and one 132-kV 2-bay switchyard together with
all the necessary auxiliary machinery, equipment and systems including the
erection and commissioning of the equipment and construction of buildings.
The ESC price also included the cost of the fuel tank for 30 days inventory of
RFO along with fuel pumping system with all heating and piping
arrangements as well as the fire containment area and the fire fighting
system.
8.1.2
of

In order to substantiate its claim the petitioner provided Memorandum


Understanding (MOU) which was signed on November 13, 2007. As per the
terms of MOU both parties had to sign an EPC contract within two months of
signing of MOU. Commercial Operation Date (COD) as per MOU is March
2010. The copies of the reservation agreement along with copy of ESC
contract were also provided by HUBCO-Narowal. According to clause 4.2 of
the reservation agreement the contract price covers:
"the

supply,

transportation,

erection,

construction,

installation

testing,

commissioning and completion of the complex as described/set out under


the initialed (by both parties) appendices I &A of the Equipment Supply
Contract (ESC) and Construction Contract (CC) respectively and that upon such
completion of the complex it shall have fully operational all equipment and
facilities necessary for the complete, safe, and reliable operation and
maintenance of the complex and that all portions of the complex will be
able to be safely and in particular in accordance with the generally accepted
prudent utility and engineering practices."

8.1.3
the

The ESC cost has been compared with other similar projects and is observed that
ESC cost of HUBCO-Narowal of 135.6 million is higher by about 2
million as against 133.4 million in the case of Bestway Power Limited (BPL). It
is also observed that despite the higher ESC cost, the ESC price does not cover
the cost of emergency spares and part of the insurance cost as required under
Schedule 8 of Standard PPA. The HUBCO-Narowal requested the cost for
emergency spares of 2.031 and insurance (Pre COD EAR/CAR and marine
insurance) cost of 2.016 separately. If it is included in the ESC price the
comparable ESC would be 140.21 which is about 5% higher as compare to BPL.

8.1.4
that

Based upon the analysis and comparison of the ESC cost, the Authority considers
although the ESC cost is slightly high but is still within the reasonable range
keeping in view the international market trends and availability of the
equipment. The Authority has therefore decided to accept the ESC of 133.4
million.

8.1.5
Euro

During hearing HUBCO-Narowal stated that their construction contract was for
13.9 million but they were negotiating with the ESC contractor to convert
the Construction Contract in US$. Subsequently HUBCO-Narowal informed in
writing that they have negotiated an exchange rate of 1 Euro at 1.55 US$ to
convert its construction contract into Dollar. According to the petitioner at the
agreed Euro/$ parity of 1.55 the construction contract price worked out as
US$21.545 million. The Authority considers that the agreed construction
cost of US$21.545 million is comparable with the other similar projects
therefore is being accepted.

8.2

Non EPC Cost

8.2.1
were

The petitioner requested US$ 8.772 million for non-EPC to cover costs which
not part of MAN's scope of work pursuant to the EPC contract. According to the
petitioner the requested non-EPC cost was required for the following activities;

Water(including pipeline for facility, main storage tank, waste water

Sludge disposal system


On SITE Corporate Office
Water treatment and softening plant
Fence around switchyard
Site compaction work & surface leveling

system)

Control room for switch yard & switch yard surface covering

8.2.2 The Authority, having examined all the relevant documentary evidence,
considering
the justification given by the petitioner and determinations made in the cases of
other similar projects, observed that some of the costs were either duplicate or
were not legitimate while most of the costs were over-estimated and
required to be rationalized. Based upon the detailed item wise analysis the
Authority has assessed US$ 2.2918 million to cover the above costs at serial
no.1,2,4,5,7,8,9,11,13,14,15&16 under non-EPC head.
8.3

Emergency & Safety Spare Parts

8.3.1
and

The petitioner requested for US$ 2.6 million (Euro 2.031 million) for Emergency
safety spare parts aimed to reduce, as much as possible, the stop times for
maintenance of the plant and to ensure the required annual plant availability.
According to the petitioner these costs were estimated at 1.5% of ESC price
which was consistent with the Authority's ruling in other similar projects.

8.3.2 The review of the technical specifications indicates that the item 7.1.4 of the
technical
specifications provide brief scope of plant spares. The technical specifications
further provide that the detailed spare parts list would be submitted after final
engineering which means that the list indicated in the technical specification is
not complete. The Authority was unable to validate the detailed scope of
plant spares from the information provided by the HUBCO-Narowal.
8.3.3

Having examined all the relevant information the Authority is convinced that
HUBCO-Narowal's request for provision of emergency spare parts is not
justified;
therefore is not accepted.
8.4

Staff Housing Colony Cost

8.4.1
Petitioner stated that the Project SITE is located approximately 60-km from
Sialkot
and 120-km from Lahore therefore housing colony was essential to be
established at SITE in view of the long distance from major cities and in
order to maintain the safety/ security of key personnel (including expatriates)

on SITE for the maintenance of the plant and the reliabiwere are also following
the same practice of keeping key personnel on SITE.
8.4.2

The Authority examined the information and evidence provided by the petitioner
found that the petitioner's estimates were slightly on the higher side and needed
to be corrected. The Authority also compared cost requested by the petitioner for

and
the costs allowed to other similar projects has assessed US$ 1.804 million in the
instant
case.
8.5

Land Acquisition and Land Development Cost

8.5.1 Petitioner requested US$ 3.89 million to cover the cost of purchase of land,
together
with stamp duty and registration fees, the fees of the broker and the legal
consultants, the cost of backfilling of the SITE as well as construction of the
bOundary wall and topographic and geotechnical surveys. The cost under this
head also included the construction of 60 ft x 50 ft Bridge to cross a feeder
canal and an access metal road of approximately 500-meters.
8.5.2
45

The Authority has been informed that the cost requested by the petitioner was for
Acers of land. In the cases of WARDA, Nishat Chunian, Nishat Power, Atlas
Power and Gujranwala Energy Limited, the Authority determined a ceiling of
25 Acers for such type of plants. The justification of procurement of additional
land was sought from the petitioner. The petitioner stated that land was not
available in a square and it had to procure the land in rectangular shape.
Consequently the EPC contractor had to modify its layout plan according to
which 28 Acers of land was required for plant only. The remaining land was
procured for constructing staff colony and approach road from the main road
etc. Only for approach road 7 acres were required.

8.5.3
The Authority considers that the justification given by the petitioner in
support of
procurement of 45 Acers of land does carry weight therefore is accepted.
Accordingly the Authority has decided to allow US$ 0.67 million for procurement
of land.
8.5.4
The petitioner's request for allowing US $ 2.14 million for backfilling and
compaction
etc. has been evaluated and analyzed on the basis of documentary evidence
provided by the petitioner. In this regard the petitioner provided relevant
pages of the study carried out by the NESPAK according to which the
petitioner is required to replace soil to gain required soil bearing capacity. The
soil replacement and compaction is required only to the extent of plant area as

against for the entire land as requested by the petitioner. The petitioner did not
provide authentic/valid evidence in support of its cost calculation therefore for
the purpose of fair assessment of the costs on this account the information
provided by Liberty Power Tech Limited (LPTL) has been used as reference.
8.5.5
Having considered the information provided by the petitioner the cost of
backfilling
pertaining to the 7 Acers of land procured for approach road was duplication
because the cost for constructing approach road covered such cost and was
separately claimed by the petitioner. As compared to LPTL in the instant
case cost of filling and compaction has increased due to the additional land
procurement. Additionally the

level of the area is lower than the flood level of the area (as per the draft
report of Hydrological Study by NESPAK). Having considered all the relevant
aspects and after incorporating the inflationary impact and allowance for low
level area the Authority has assessed US$ 1.1623 million on this account to be
adjusted as per actual subject to maximum of US$2.14 million
8.5.6
The petitioner requested US$ 0.66 million for road inside/outside the facility
about 5
kM. According to the scope of the EPC contract the road inside the boundary
wall is the responsibility of the EPC contractor therefore the cost needed to
be adjusted accordingly. After incorporating the adjustment for roads inside
the boundary wall the cost has been assessed as US$ 0.462 million for roads
outside the facility.
8.5.7
and

The petitioner requested US$

0.36 million for pulli/bridge, topographic

geotechnical surveys and construction of boundary wall. The Authority considers


that costs requested by the petitioner are comparable with the similar projects
therefore decided to allow as such.
8.5.8 In light of the above, the Authority has assessed the overall cost of US$ 2.6543
million
3.89
on account of land acquisition and land development as against US$
million
requested.
8.6

Import Duty & Taxes

8.6.1
the

Petitioner requested US$ 9.75 million for import duty and Taxes. According to
petitioner it covers custom duties and import taxes @ 5% of the cost of
plant and equipment under the ESC. The withholding tax of 6% of the CC
price has been included. Any duties or taxes in excess thereof (or any new
taxes or duties) shall be treated as "pass-through" items to the Power Purchaser.

8.6.2
The Authority in other similar cases adopted 5% custom duties with the
provision of
adjustment as per actual at COD. The same has been assumed in the instant
case. Accordingly based on the adjusted EPC price the Authority for the
purpose of tariff calculation has assessed customs duty/withholding tax of US$
10.547 million to be adjusted as per the actual on provision of documentary
evidence at COD.

8.7

Project Development Costs

The Petitioner requested for US$ 4.89 million for project development costs to
cost of Bankable Feasibility Study, Load Flow & Short Circuit Studies,
Fees for Engineering & Technical Consultants, Legal Consultants (Local +

In order to make fair assessment of the project development cost, each component
been evaluated on the basis of information provided by the petitioner and
compared with most recent determinations. The Authority also considered
the information provided by the petitioner in support of its claim i.e.
financial proposal from FICHTNER for bankable feasibility study and
Owner's Engineer for HUBCONarowal. From the available information the
cost requested by the petitioner for bankable feasibility could not be validated.
In absence of any reliable information the Authority had to rely on the
determinations made in the similar cases.

8.7.3
From the available information although it was confirmed that the petitioner
acquired
the services of Mot-Macdonald Pettit (MMP), Ireland as its owner
engineer/technical consultant, however the total cost of the assignment could
not be validated. The payment to the extent of US$ 125,000 + traveling and
out of pocket expenses to be made to MMP, for reviewing the design
information and technical specifications, advising on risk reviews and
assisting negotiations and finalization of the EPC contract document was also
confirmed from the documents.

Having considered the relevant documentary evidence and the costs allowed in
similar projects the Authority has assessed US$ 2.55 million for project
development
cost.

8.8

Mobilization & Other Costs

for

The petitioner requested US$ 2.65 million on account of O&M mobilization costs
six months, HUBCO'S personnel prior to COD including HUBCO's
Lahore/Narowal Office & establishment cost, Review design information,
review risk, review of technical specifications, negotiation with EPC Local
assistance to O&M Contractor, Training abroad for HUBCO'S O&M personnel.

8.8.2
Based on the information provided by the petitioner and allowed in other
similar
cases, all the costs except for the cost of review design etc are reasonable therefore
are being allowed as such. The cost for review design information, review risk,
review of technical specifications, and negotiation with EPC has been covered
under the project development cost. Having considered all the relevant

information, the overall mobilization and other costs have been assessed as US$
2.5 million.
8.9

Start-up Expenses & Utilities

8.9.1 Petitioner requested US$ 1.29 million on account of start-up expenses and
utilities.
The petitioner requested US$
100,000 for Utilities (Electricity, telephone,
water
supply, internet etc.) during construction and US$ 1,190,000 Initial Filling of
diesel, chemical and lubricants for startup and testing before synchronization.

8.9.2 The examination of the information revealed that most of the costs were
already
covered under different heads therefore the Authority has excluded these costs
from the start-up expenses and utilities. After adjusting the amounts
allowed under different heads the Authority has assessed and allowed an amount
of US$ 0.25 million on this account.
9.

Pre-COD Insurance Cost

9.1
the

Pre-COD Insurance cost covers the cost of insurances of the Complex during
construction phase and up-to the COD. This is estimated at 1.35% of EPC cost
and is in line with the Authority's ruling in other projects.

9.2
In Authority's opinion Article 14 of the ESC which deals with the general
obligations
with respect to insurance is entirely ambiguous. The Article does not clearly
indicate the responsibilities/obligations of the contractor and the owner. It is
observed that the parties have not yet finalized the insurance terms of EPC
contract. In the absence of any authentic evidence the exact amount payable
by the petitioner cannot be determined at this point of time. The Authority
considers that an adjustment to the extent of payment to be made by the
petitioner, if any, on this account can be made at the time of COD, subject to the
condition that the overall insurance amount payable by both EPC contractor and
the petitioner in accordance with the PPA terms does not exceed 1.35% of the EPC
price.
10.

Financing Fees & Charges

10.1 The petitioner requested US$


which
and

included the upfront fee US$

3.89 million as financing fees and charges


1.5 million, arrangement fee US$

2 million

monitoring fee US$ 0.39 million. These fees and charges are assumed at 2.5% of
the debt amount, which will be adjusted at COD as per actual, subject to the
maximum of 3% of such debt amount.
10.2
the

The Authority considers that the petitioner's request is reasonable and in line with
decisions in other similar cases therefore is accepted. Accordingly based on the
revised Capital Structure, the financing fee has been assessed as US$ 4.33
million to be adjusted as per actual at the time of COD subject to the
maximum of 3% of the borrowing.

11.

Interest during Construction (IDC)

11.1

According to the petitioner the calculation of IDC of US$


(subject to

actual adjustment) were based on the payment schedules keeping in view the
equity and debt injections together with the applicable interest/mark up rates. In
view of the delivery schedule under the ESC, the Project's implementation
period will be 24 months corresponding to 31 March 2010.

0.1500 per kW per hour represented the fixed costs of all the staff for O&M,
cost associated with periodic maintenance for ensuring availability, plant
administration, security, transportation, overheads, office costs, professional fees
such as audit, tax and legal, as well as some other fixed operational costs such as
environmental monitoring and obsolescence, that do not change with dispatch
levels. The breakdown of fixed O&M cost in local and foreign portion is as under:
Local Fixed O&M Cost Component
Foreign Fixed O&M Cost Component

30%
70%

13.1.2 The information provided by the petitioner in support of its claim is not
consistent
with the original submission of the petitioner. According to the information
provided
by the petitioner its fixed O&M cost comprised of O&M operator fee Rs. 0.1174
per
kW per hour and HUBCO's cost Rs. 0.0326 per kW per hour. The amount
requested
by the petitioner in the instant case is much higher as compared to other similar

projects recently decided by the Authority. Since the tariff determination of


similar cases, the depreciation of rupee against Euro/US$ has been observed
therefore some adjustment on this account in the O&M foreign component of
cost is considered
justified. After incorporating the adjustment for exchange rate parity the
foreign component of fixed O&M cost in the instant case has been assessed as
Rs. 0.1100 per kW per hour and local component of fixed O&M as Rs. 0.0325
per kW per hour. The
overall fixed O&M cost in the instant is allowed as Rs. 0.1425 per kW per hour.
13.2 Cost of Working Capital
13.2.1 Petitioner requested 0.0945 per kW per hour as cost of financing working
capital.
According to the petitioner working capital loan facility of USD
23.29
million is assumed in order to finance the inventory level of RFO
equivalent to 30 days generation at 100% load factor and energy payment at 60%
receivable along with GST for 30 days. The cost of Working Capital Facility is
assumed at 12.45% (3 month KIBOR (10.45%) + 2% margin) with no other
charges (e.g. commitment fee).
13.2.2
level

As per the terms of PPA the IPP is required to maintain fuel inventory
equivalent to 30 days generation at 100% load factor. The working in the instant
case for inventory is inline with the PPA requirement. Based upon the
reference fuel price of Rs.22,140 + Freight Rs.2,350 per M/Ton, the fuel stock
requirement at 100% load factor, has been assessed as US$ 11.149 million.

13.2.3 The petitioner requested receivables Variable 100% for 30 days (60% load
factor),
which is in accordance with the PPA terms. The Authority considers that
the petitioner will require additional working capital because it will raise its
invoice for energy payment after each 30 days and the power purchaser will
make payment after next 30 days. On the average 30 days energy charge at
60% dispatch will remain in the billing cycle. The petitioner's request being
legitimate is accepted as such. For this purpose only fuel cost will be
considered relevant. On the basis of aforementioned, the assessed
working capital requirement for HUBCO-Narowal is US$ 6.689 million.
13.2.4
and

The petitioner's request regarding provision of

15% sales tax on inventory

receivables is justified. The Authority in the instant case has assessed US$

2.6758 million in this context.


13.2.5 Based upon the working capital requirement of US$ 20.5147 million at
Rupee/dollar
parity of 65.95, the financing cost @ 12.45% (KIBOR 10.45% + 200 points
spread) has been assessed as US$ 2.554 million or Rs. 0.0900 per kW per hour.
This cost will be adjusted according to the actual prices prevalent at the
time of first fill at COD according to the following formula;

on
account of insurance @ 1.35% of EPC cost
13.3.2 Since the request is in line with the already determined cases by the
Authority
therefore is accepted. The Authority has accordingly assessed the insurance
cost of US$ 3.138 million or Rs. 0.0116 per kW per hour to be adjusted as per
actual subject to maximum of 1.35% of EPC price.

Return on Equity (ROE)


The petitioner requested Rs. 0.3738 per kW per hour as return on equity of US$
73.881 million to achieve net 15% IRR. On the basis of revised project cost
HUBCONarowal's equity has been calculated as US$ 82.246 million.
Accordingly ROE works out as Rs. 0.4348 per kW per hour. The petitioner's
request for allowing indexation to the ROE is in line with the GoP policy
therefore is accepted. The adjustment will be made according to the following

Variable O&M Cost

18.2.1 The petitioner requested the variable O&M cost of Rs.


0.5180 per kWh
which
comprises of:
Local Variable O&M
Rs. 0.1036 per kWh
Foreign Variable O&M
Rs. 0.4144 per kWh
Local Variable O&M
18.2.2
that

Petitioner requested to allow local variable O&M of Rs.

0.1036 per kWh

included the cost of lubricant consumption, which is directly related to


the electricity actually generated. The cost of lube oil for the engines will be
indexed to the prevailing Pakistan Wholesale Price Index ("WPI")
manufacturing as notified by the Pakistan Federal Bureau of Statistics. The
petitioner requested for quarterly indexation of Local Variable O&M Cost
Component. Subsequently the petitioner, vide its letter No. 04_NEPRA/wmk
dated April 10, 2008 submitted calculation of variable O&M cost. The breakup is
given as under:
Description
Lube Oil
Routine Repair & Maintenance & Other Operating Cost
Total
18.2.3
of

Rs. /kWh
0.1336
0.0424
0.1760

The petitioner's calculation for lube oil is based on the technical specifications
MAN Diesel (according to which the lube oil consumption at the reference
SITE conditions will not exceed 199.5 Kg per hour) and estimated lube oil price
of Rs. 145 per Kg. The Authority considers that the petitioner's request for
allowing Rs. 0.1336 in this regard is reasonable; therefore decides to allow as

such. The Authority further considers that the routine repair and maintenance and
other operating cost of Rs.
0.0424 per kWh requested by the petitioner is comparable with the cost
allowed to other similar projects therefore decides to allow the same as such.
The Authority has accordingly determined overall Variable O&M - local
component as Rs.0.1760/kWh to be adjusted according to the following formula:
V O&M(LREV) =

Rs. 0.1760 /kWh

* WPI (REV) /127.5

Foreign Variable O&M


18.2.4 Petitioner submitted that foreign variable O&M of Rs. 0.4144 per kWh
included
imported spare parts and consumables to be changed during scheduled
maintenance and unscheduled maintenance. It also includes chemicals as
well as specialized technical services from the manufacturer during
maintenance of the plant. The generating sets and associated equipment
have manufacturer-recommended overhauling schedules that are commonly
based on actual running hours. The actual timing of the major overhaul
depends on the actual plant dispatch. The petitioner supported its request
with backup calculations based on the annual scheduled maintenance
budgetary costs for one engine indicated by the MAN Diesel. The
petitioner also requested to allow the following quarterly indexation on
foreign Variable O&M Cost Component of the Energy Purchase Price:
(a)
the USD /PKR exchange rate, based on the revised TT & OD selling rate of
USD
notified by the National Bank of Pakistan; and
(b)
18.2.5
for

US CPI, as issued by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Based on the information provided by the petitioner, the major overhauling cost
spare parts at exchange rate of Rs. 65.95 per US$ including 5% import duty on
spare parts, the Authority has assessed Rs. 0.2369 as against of Rs. 0.3004
estimated by the petitioner. Similarly the variable cost for operator fee has been
assessed as Rs. 0.0159 per kWh as against Rs. 0.0250 per kWh worked out by the
petitioner.

0.0166/kWh on account of
18.2.6 The Authority considers that the cost of Rs.
other
chemicals and consumable requested by the petitioner is reasonable therefore
decides to allow the same as such.
18.2.7 Having considered all the components of foreign variable O&M, the
Authority

assessed overall variable O&M foreign component as Rs. 0.2694 per kWh. The
foreign variable O&M component will be adjusted according to the following

Adjustment in EPC Cost (One Time)

The Authority has assessed offshore EPC cost as 135.6 million and onshore as
US$
21.545 million (to be incurred in PKR). Since the exact timing of payment to
EPC contractor is not known at this point of time therefore an adjustment for
relevant foreign currency fluctuation for the portion of payment in the
relevant foreign currency will be made. In this regard the sponsor will be

accounted for in the tariff. If HUBCO-Narowal is obligated to pay any tax on


the income purely generated from its operation i.e. Electricity Generation of
power producer, the exact amount should be reimbursed by CPPA on production
of original receipts. This payment may be considered as pass-through (as
Rs./kW/hour) hourly payment spread over a 12 months period in addition to the
capacity purchase price in the Reference Tariff. Furthermore, in such a
scenario, HUBCO-Narowal may also submit to CPPA details of any tax shield
savings and CPPA will deduct the amount of these savings from its payment to
HUBCO-Narowal on account of taxation.
ii)
as

Withholding tax on dividend is also a pass-through item just like other taxes
indicated in the government guidelines for determination of tariff for new IPPs.
In a reference tariff table withholding tax number is indicated as reference
and CPPA (NTDC) shall make payment on account of withholding tax at the
time of actual payment of dividend subject to maximum of 7.5% of 15%
reference equity i.e. hourly payment (Rs./kW/hour) spread over a 12 month
period according to the following formula:

iii)
In case Company does not declare a dividend in a particular year or only
declares a
partial dividend, then the difference in the withholding tax amount (between
what is paid in that year and the total entitlement as per the Net Return on
Equity) would be carried forward and accumulated so that the Company is able
to recover the same in hourly payments spread over 12 months period as a pass
through from the Power Purchaser in future on the basis of the total dividend pay
out.
