Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholders,
It is a matter of great pleasure for me to present the 38th Annual Report of your Company for the nancial year 2013-14. Your Company
is advancing by tackling various challenges, deriving strength from its Corporate Vision and Mission.
I am glad to inform you that notwithstanding the setbacks of suspension of some of the major ongoing Projects due to natural calamities
and other reasons, we could display a better performance in Operations and Construction, this year. Your Company has added an installed
capacity of 760 MW during the year. Sales realization of NHPC during 2013-14 has increased to ` 6,397 crore from ` 5,369 crore of the
previous year. Likewise your Company had raised bills amounting to ` 5,928 crore and generated a prot of ` 978.79 crore during the
nancial year 2013-14. The decrease in prot is mainly due to charging off the borrowing cost and other administrative cost of Subansiri
Lower and Teesta Low DamIV Projects as construction activities were interrupted for a prolonged period.
Board of Directors have recommended a dividend of ` 0.30 per share (excluding dividend tax) for the year 2013-14. The total dividend
payout will be ` 332.12 crore which is 33.93% of the prot after tax. It will be paid after the approval of shareholders at the ensuing
Annual General Meeting.
At present the total installed capacity of your Company is 6,507 MW consisting of 18 operating Power Stations including 1,520
MW of NHDC Limited, a Subsidiary Company of NHPC. Since last year, Teesta Low Dam-III (132 MW) in West Bengal, Nimoo Bazgo
(45 MW) in Jammu & Kashmir, Uri-II (240 MW) in Jammu & Kashmir and Parbati-III (520 MW) in Himachal Pradesh were declared under
commercial operation.
During the year, against the target of 21,465 MUs, NHPC generated 18,386 Million Units of power through 18 operating Power Stations
located in different parts of the country. The reason for less generation is mainly due to submergence of Dhauliganga Power Station (280
MW) resulting from cloud burst on 17th June, 2013 in Uttarakhand. However, with the dedication of staff, entire units have been restored.
The outstanding dues pending for more than 60 days as on 31st March, 2014 was ` 955 crore. Your Company is continuing all efforts to
recover the outstanding dues including regulation of power supply to the defaulting utilities. Most of the beneciary states except J&K
are now liquidating their dues on regular basis.
Presently, construction activities in 4 Hydroelectric Projects with an installed capacity of 3,290 MW are in progress.
Annual Report
2013-14
I am happy to share with you that as part of Companys future expansion programme, five Projects with an installed capacity of 5,115
MW are under various stages of approval. In addition, three Projects in Jammu & Kashmir (2,120 MW) and one Project in Manipur
(66 MW) are envisaged to be executed through Joint Venture Companies i.e. Chenab Valley Power Projects Private Limited (CVPPL) and
Loktak Downstream Hydroelectric Corporation Ltd (LDHCL) respectively.
Exploiting the growth opportunities by leveraging the extant resources and strengths is the crux of business strategy and it gives me
immense pleasure to inform you that our efforts for diversification into Thermal, Wind and Solar Power across the country has started
fetching results in India and Overseas.
NHPCs varied expertise and experience acquired over the years has been recognized at national and international levels. The Company
has received Consultancy assignments from Central and State Government agencies in India and other countries like Bhutan and Ethiopia.
So far NHPC has successfully completed 88 Consultancy assignments, while another six are under progress. NHPC is also implementing
Rural Electrification Projects under Rajiv Gandhi Gramin Vidyutikaran Yojna (RGGVY) in 27 Districts spread over five States of West Bengal,
Bihar, Jammu & Kashmir, Chhattisgarh and Odisha.
A policy framework has been created to manage the Information Technology (IT) systems. The Policy ensures optimum and secure
utilization of assets owned by NHPC and integrates the focus of Management on Projects Under Construction and Power Stations.
Human Resources Development is given utmost priority in NHPC as manpower is one of the main pillars of any organization. A
comprehensive Training approach is being followed in the Company to keep the employees abreast with the latest advancements in
relevant fields. Besides conducting in-house workshops, the Company also organizes training programmes in collaboration with reputed
educational Institutes like, IIMs/XLRIs/IITs, etc. by way of strategic alliance to facilitate advance Management and Leadership development
programmes for the employees.
NHPC, with its humane touch has been able to generate goodwill in the vicinity of our Projects/Power Stations/Units and also in other parts
of the country. This can be attributed to our commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Resettlement & Rehabilitation (R&R).
There is a constant effort to integrate the virtues of Corporate Citizenship vis--vis Economic, Social and Environmental responsibilities
within the core business processes. We take utmost care to constantly adopt and maintain the highest standards of Corporate Governance
in all its Business activities.
Operational excellence is lifeless unless a successful story of holistic development is not put forward by the Company. NHPC endeavours
for an all-round growth and the same is reflected in our Management practices. As a result, our Power Stations/Projects/Units and Senior
Management personnel have been receiving accolades for operational excellence in various fields for the last many years.
Looking ahead, the Board and Management of your Company will continue to execute various strategies, to develop existing assets,
optimize business portfolio through diversification, strengthen financial performance and drive operational efficiencies throughout the
organization. I am confident that our strategic endeavours would generate sustainable growth, stronger cash flows, better returns on
capital and improve the wealth of shareholders.
It is our commitment to live up to the expectations of our shareholders. I take this opportunity to thank all shareholders for their continued
involvement and their encouragement, which are vital for the prosperity of your Company and the same is solicited in future as well.
Yours sincerely,
(R.S.T. Sai)

POWER GENERATION
During the year 2013-14, NHPC generated 18,386 MUs of power through 18 Power Stations located in different parts of the
Country against the target of 21,465 MUs. The reason for less generation was mainly because of the complete shutdown of 280
MW Dhauliganga Power Station, Uttarakhand, due to ooding of power house by ash oods. Generation from all four units of
Dhauliganga Power Station has been restored. The shortfall in generation was also attributable to poor hydrology during the year in
some of the Power Stations.
Since last report, 132 MW Teesta Low Dam-III (West Bengal), 45 MW Nimoo Bazgo (Jammu & Kashmir), 240 MW Uri-II (Jammu
& Kashmir) and 520 MW Parbati-III (Himachal Pradesh) Power Stations were declared under commercial operation. As such an
additional installed capacity of 937 MW was declared under commercial operation since previous report. At present, your Companys

Management Discussion and Analysis Report

Industry Structure and Development:
India, with over a billion people, has per capita availability of Electricity less than one fourth of World average. As the Indian economy is
growing at a fast pace, for self-reliance in power, there is an urgent need to accelerate further Investment in Power Sector for countrys
sustained industrial and economic growth.
India has witnessed a robust growth in Power Sector since independence. The total installed capacity as on 31st March, 2014 was 2,43,029
MW with contribution of 1,68,255 MW, 40,531 MW, 4,780 MW and 29,463 MW from Thermal, Hydro, Nuclear and Renewable power
respectively. Major share of power, from various sources such as coal, water, nuclear, fuel, solar and wind is generated by Public Sector
(State and Central).
During the past two decades, Hydropower has gained much momentum across the globe. India ranks amongst top countries worldwide
for possessing feasible Hydro Power capacity, much of which remains unutilized. Considering the growing need for power, future of
Indias Hydro Power generation looks promising and role of NHPC Limited, prominent.
NHPC is a Miniratna Schedule A Enterprise having an authorized share capital of ` 15,000 crore, investment base of about ` 50,000
crore and an installed capacity of 6,507 MW. During 2013-14, your Company generated 18,386 MUs through various Power Stations
located across the country.
In the years to come, NHPC hopes that hydroelectricity generation manifolds its role and thus resolves Indias agricultural, industrial and
household power requirements to a large extent.
Hydropower Potential in India
Our country is endowed with an enormous Hydro Power potential. The re-assessment studies of hydroelectric potential of the country
were completed by Central Electricity Authority (CEA) in 1987. According to study, the Hydro Power potential in terms of installed capacity
is estimated at 1,48,701 MW out of which 1,45,320 MW of the potential consists of hydroelectric schemes having installed capacity above
25 MW. A total of 845 Hydroelectric schemes have been identied in the various basins which will yield 442 billion units of electricity. In
addition to above, Pumped Storage Schemes for an aggregate capacity of about 96,524 MW have also been identied by CEA.
Strategic Diversification
NHPC Limited, Indias leading Company in Hydro Power is also at the initial stages of adding development of thermal, solar, wind, etc.
SWOT ANALYSIS
A)
STRENGTHS
NHPC has the following primary competitive strengths:
Established track record in implementing Hydroelectric Projects: NHPC has gained wide experience and expertise in
implementing Projects which provides it with signicant competitive advantage. It has a strong Design and Engineering base
with in house expertise in Geology, Geophysics, Geotechnics, Construction & Material Surveys. Its Engineering capabilities
range right from the stage of conceptualization to the commissioning of Projects. NHPCs team is supported by international
and domestic project consultants.
Exposure of construction and operation of Hydro Projects in remote/ non-penetrative areas of Geotechnically
sensitive Himalayan terrain: Almost all NHPC Projects are situated in remote areas which come with a range of challenges
in terms of climate, logistics and technology. However, with its strong and efcient team of competent and experienced
professionals with the capability to execute all types and sizes of Hydro Power Projects, NHPC has successfully managed to
develop and implement 20 Power Stations, including two through its subsidiary, NHDC.
Long term power purchase agreements with customers: NHPC gets most of its revenue from the sale of energy to State
Electricity Boards (SEBs) / Power Departments and their successor entities through Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). Power
from different Power Stations to various beneciaries is allocated by the Ministry of Power, Government of India. The payments
due from the state entities are currently secured through letters of credit pursuant to the tripartite agreements involving
Government of India, the Reserve Bank of India and respective State Governments.
Further, the Company also obtains commitments from beneciaries for purchase of power from new Projects as and when the
Government of India decides to invest in such Projects.
56
Annual Report
2013-14
B)
Competent and committed workforce: NHPC has a competent and committed workforce. Its executives have extensive
experience in the industry. Their skills, industry knowledge and operating experience lead to competitive advantage.
Strong financial position: NHPC is a Minirata Schedule A Enterprise with an authorized share capital of ` 15,000 crore and
an investment base of over ` 50,000 crore.
OPPORTUNITIES
The deteriorating hydro-thermal mix, increase in peaking shortages and frequency variations have forced policy makers to turn their
attention towards water resources and development of Hydro Power. Indias huge untapped hydro potential, especially in the North
Eastern region, provides an inordinate opportunity for Hydro Power development. Besides NHPC is also diversifying in other areas
namely thermal, wind, solar etc. to explore new opportunities.
C)
THREATS/ WEAKNESSES
NHPC Management perceives the following as threats /risks /weaknesses in construction of Hydro Power Projects:
D)
Environment & forest clearances - Stringent norms and cumbersome procedures for getting Environment clearance, Forest
clearance and clearance from National Board for Wild Life (wherever applicable) lead to delay in obtaining clearance of Projects,
which may adversely affect the capacity addition programme.
Land Acquisition - The process of land acquisition for infrastructure works as well as for Projects components including
submergence is quite cumbersome and time consuming.
Geological Uncertainties - In spite of extensive Survey and Investigation, various components of Hydro Projects such as head
race tunnel, underground power house, pressure shaft, surge shaft, etc. face geological surprises especially in young Himalayan
regions. Nonetheless, due to frequent occurrences of these surprises result in time and cost over-run of the Projects.
Inter-state and international disputes - As water is a State subject in India, on account of inter-state river disputes, many
Hydro Projects may get delayed or abandoned. Likewise, the Projects/Power Stations located in border areas quite often become
reference points for differences in international relations.
Natural calamities - Most Hydro Projects are generally located in remote mountainous terrains. On account of it, more often
than not, these Projects are at the receiving end of devastating natural calamities. Such disasters in the form of landslides, hill
slope collapses & roadblocks, ood and cloud burst cause severe setbacks in construction schedules.
Unexpected complexities - Unexpected complexities and delays in clearances / execution due to reasons beyond ones
control may cause variation/ escalation in estimates. Further, changes in CERCs tariff regulations may affect cash ow and
results of operations.
Competition from Independent Power Producers (IPPs) - NHPC is facing stiff competition from IPPs and other competitors
in allotment of new Projects.
Law & Order - Projects/ Power Stations of NHPC located at sensitive border areas witness law & order problems as well. Militant
and extremist groups of the areas quite often target NHPC, perceiving it to be a Government representative.
RISKS AND CONCERNS

Hydro Power schemes are capital intensive and have a long gestation period. Availability of funds is always seen as one of the major
constraints for construction of vast Hydro Power potential available in the country. Water being a State subject, State Governments
are demanding higher share of free power and other incentives, resulting in higher tariff.
OUTLOOK
Effective initiatives adopted by NHPC for technological advancements in the areas of Civil and Electrical Engineering have improved key
functions vis-a vis Planning, Survey & Investigation, Construction, Operation & Maintenance, etc. Similarly, optimum use of Information
Technology has streamlined monitoring of construction activities as well as supervision of post commissioning Operation & Maintenance.
INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY
NHPC has a well dened and well laid out inbuilt Control System in all the functional and operational areas. The processes involved are in
accordance with a system of delegation of powers, documented policies, guidelines and manuals. The organization is well structured in
terms of hierarchical authority and responsibilities at various levels.
57
NHPC has an independent full edged Internal Audit Department, reporting to Director (Finance). The department has qualied and
experienced workforce to carry out audits periodically. Internal Audit Division has been carrying out special audits from time to time as
desired by the Management. Work of Internal Audit of 15 Power Stations was outsourced to CA rms during the year 2013-14. Technical
Ofcers were posted in the Internal Audit Division during the year 2013-14 to strengthen the audit effectiveness. The summary of
Audit Observations and Action Taken Reports are being submitted before the Audit Committee and the recommendations of the Audit
Committee are duly complied with.

credit of current year other income in respect of Subansiri Lower & TLDP-IV Projects, which are under construction wherein work has
been interrupted, compensated by decrease in sales due to less generation in old power stations, forced shut down of Dhauliganga Power
Station due to ash ood and decrease in write back of liabilities/ provision.
Tariff
The charges for electricity are determined Power Station wise by the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC). The regulation
has been issued by CERC pursuant to notication no. L-7/145(160)/2008-CERC dated January 19, 2009 which relates to the tariff period
2009-14 and subsequent amendments from time to time.
Tariff is determined by reference to Annual Fixed Charges (AFC), which comprises Return on Equity (ROE), depreciation, interest on
loan, interest on working capital and operation & maintenance expenses. ROE is grossed-up with reference to applicable income tax
rate (normal corporate tax rate or minimum alternate tax rate) so as to recover income tax incidence. Recovery of capacity charges is
dependent on the actual utilisation of machines for generating power. Capacity is determined by reference to the Normative Annual Plant
Availability Factor (NAPAF), which has been prescribed for each Power Station based on the nature of the Power Station.
Incentives are received for achieving a plant availability factor greater than NAPAF as well as for generating energy in excess of the design
energy level of the plant.
Sale of Energy
Electricity is sold to bulk customers comprising, mainly electricity utilities owned by State Governments/ Private Distribution Companies.
Sale of electricity is made pursuant to long-term power purchase agreements. Sales have been recognized as per tariff notied by Central
Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC). Tariff for the tariff period 2009-14 has since been xed in respect of 16 out of 18 Power Stations.
58
Annual Report
2013-14
However, sales in respect of Chamera-III, Chutak, Uri-II and Nimoo Bazgo Power Stations have been recognised based on provisional tariff
as notied by CERC. Further, in respect of TLDP-III Power Station, sales have been recognised provisionally based on 85% of capital cost
led with CERC and in respect of Parbati-III Power Station, sales have been recognised provisionally based on sanctioned capital cost.
The said regulations inter-alia provides that for the purpose of ling tariff petitions, ROE is to be grossed-up using applicable Minimum
Alternate/Corporate Income Tax Rate for the nancial year 2008-09 as per Income Tax Act, 1961. Further, CERC vide notication no.
L-7/145/(160)/2008-CERC dated 21.06.2011 provides that the Generating Company shall recover the shortfall or refund of excess Annual
Fixed Charge on account of Return on Equity due to change in tax rate (as amended from time to time) of the respective year directly
without making any application before the Commission.
In Fiscal 2014, 15,942 MUs of electricity was sold from installed capacity of 4,831.20 MW and in Fiscal 2013, 16,397 MUs was sold from
installed capacity of 4,024.20 MW. This represents a decrease of 2.78 % in the number of units sold out. The average selling price (after
adjustment of components of earlier year sales) was ` 3.38 per unit in Fiscal 2014, compared to ` 3.06 per unit in Fiscal 2013.
Sale of energy increased by 5.66% to ` 5,335.11crore in Fiscal 2014 from ` 5,049.13 crore in Fiscal 2013 primarily due to commissioning
of four projects during FY 2013-14 & full year operation of two projects commissioned in FY 2012-13, compensated by decrease in sales
due to less generation in old Power Stations including forced shut down of Dhauliganga Power Station. Companys Plant Availability
Factor (PAF) in Fiscal 2014 was 77.70% as compared to 85.30% in Fiscal 2013.
Adjusted Sales of Energy
The revenue from sales of energy includes sales pertaining to earlier years but recognised in current year. It also includes Un-scheduled
Interchange (UI) charges for the deviation in generation with respect to schedule (payable or receivable) at rates linked to frequency
prescribed in the regulation to bring grid discipline and re-imbursement on account of Foreign Exchange Rate Variation (FERV).
As per CERC Tariff Regulations, exchange rate variation on interest payments and loan repayments corresponding to the normative loans
considered for tariff of Stations/ units is payable/ recoverable to/ from the beneciaries on repayment of the loans and interest thereon.
Pursuant to an opinion of Expert Advisory Committee of the ICAI, foreign exchange rate variation on restatement of foreign currency loans
as at the Balance Sheet date which is payable/ recoverable to/ from customers later-on on actual settlement is accounted for by creating
a deferred liability/ asset in the accounts instead of adjusting the same in the prot & loss account.
For the purpose of year to year comparison, the impact of earlier year sales has been excluded from sales of energy in order to arrive at
the adjusted sales of energy.
The revenue from sales of energy after such adjustments is as under:

ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION, TECHNOLOGICAL CONSERVATION, RENEWABLE ENERGY DEVELOPMENTS,

FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONSERVATION
NHPC is committed to preserving Countrys heritage, natural endowments, and protecting the environment while carrying out Hydropower
construction work to set the Country on the path of economic growth.
The Company makes an effort to create an environment where economic growth and environmental preservation can become compatible
in the long run. NHPC ensures that the relation between optimal growth and sustainability; and the consequences of environmental policy
for growth do not clash.
Adverse impacts of construction are compensated by adopting measures like compensatory afforestation, catchment area treatment,
wildlife conservation, green belt development, shery management, health management, rejuvenation of dumping and quarry sites,
Resettlement & Rehabilitation, etc.
69
NHPC shows concerns and sensitivity to the problems and aspirations of Project Affected Families (PAFs). Thus, after consultation with
various stakeholders, NHPC formulated its own Resettlement & Rehabilitation (R&R) Policy in 2007; which is in keeping with the National
Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy (NRRP), 2007. An initiative hailed by one and all.
The policy assesses issues like loss of land, houses, and other means of livelihood of the PAFs. It facilitates an insight into resolving issues
of income generation. Major emphasis is on making PAFs economically self-reliant and stable.
The policy offers benets over and above what is proposed in NRRP, 2007. These include irrigation support systems, marriage grants to
unmarried girls in BPL section, subsistence grants for asset-less youth, formation of self-help groups, facilities for orphans, and allotting
up to 0.75 per cent of the estimated hard cost of a project towards community and social development plan.
In addition to this, NHPC also conducts Post-construction Environment and Social Impact Assessment Studies to evaluate the effectiveness
of the management plans implemented during the course of construction of the Project.
NHPC is also exploring the possibility of Wind and Solar Power across the Country.
Corporate Social Responsibility
NHPC has a well-dened CSR and Sustainable Development Policy in line with Department of Public Enterprises Guidelines. A separate
chapter on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) & Sustainable Development (SD) is given at Annexure-VII.

Benefits derived as a result of the above Research and Development:
Development of procedure for onsite repair of EHV transformer (up to 400 kV) at Power Station: In present practice
the EHV transformers have to be carried to the factory manufacturers for repair which is time consuming. With a standard
procedure for onsite repair of EHV transformer by high-quality on-site testing technology, it will be possible to optimize the
whole onsite processes associated to diagnosis and repair of large HV power transformers. Thereby, it will minimize cost and
time in repairing of transformer & downtime at Power Station.
Application of GIS/GPS in river inflow/discharge measurements for Subansiri River.: This application will help in
getting the online discharge data with the help of GIS/GPS telemetry facility. This data can be recorded from a remote site
instantaneously so that quick decisions regarding operational aspects & project are facilitated.
Development of Shaft seal for Silty Water for machines: The modied shaft seal of hard resin material, shall decrease
downtime and increase efciency, with ease of maintenance.

3.
Does the Company have procedures in place for sustainable sourcing (including transportation)? If yes, what
percentage of your inputs was sourced sustainably? Also, provide details thereof, in about 50 words or so.
The Company emphasizes to establish good relationship with its vendors and include them in its growth story. The Company follows
International Competitive Bidding (ICB) system for selecting agencies for executing the construction of Hydro Power Projects. The
techno-commercial bids are examined in line with ICB practices, CVC guidelines and various other vendor practices like safe working
conditions, implementation of labour laws, environment policies etc. The Company ofcials interact with all agency/agencys
representatives on regular basis in a transparent manner.
However, it is difcult to ascertain the percentage of inputs sourced from these suppliers accounting towards total inputs due to
many different kinds of materials being used by the Company.
4.
Has the Company taken any steps to procure goods and services from local & small producers, including communities
surrounding their place of work? If yes, what steps have been taken to improve their capacity and capability of local
and small vendors?
Hydropower generation only requires non consumptive use of water as raw material. However, various Contracts have been entered
with locals around project for vehicle hiring, material handling, housekeeping, waste handling and horticulture. These Contracts
have led entrepreneur development around project sites and have created indirect employment for local populace.
5.
Does the Company have a mechanism to recycle products and waste? If yes what is the percentage of recycling of
products and waste (separately as <5%, 5-10%, >10%)
Hydroelectric power generation does not produce any waste. Electricity which is the product of hydroelectric power plants is

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT

To the Board of Directors
NHPC Limited
Report on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We issued our audit report dated 30th May 2014 on the Consolidated Financial Statements of NHPC Limited (the Company) and its
subsidiaries (The Group) which comprise the consolidated Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2014, and the consolidated Statement of
Prot and Loss and consolidated Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of signicant accounting policies and
other explanatory information. These nancial statements were revised by the Board of Directors on 7th July 2014 before circulation to

to declaration of proposed dividend amounting to ` 388.56 Crore, inclusive of dividend distribution tax thereon. Our audit procedure on
subsequent events are restricted solely to the amendment of the nancial statements as referred in note no. 29 para 31 to the nancial
statements. We report on revised consolidated nancial statements as under: We have audited the accompanying consolidated nancial statements of NHPC Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (The Group),
which comprise the consolidated Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2014, and the consolidated Statement of Prot and Loss and consolidated
Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of signicant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Managements Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of these consolidated nancial statements that give a true and fair view of the consolidated
nancial position, consolidated nancial performance and consolidated cash ows of the Group in accordance with the Accounting
Standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of Section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956 (the Act) read with General Circular 15/2013
dated 13th September, 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in respect of section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. This responsibility
includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and presentation of the consolidated
nancial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated nancial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in
accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards require that
we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
nancial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated nancial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement
of the consolidated nancial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal
control relevant to the Companys preparation and presentation of the consolidated nancial statements that give a true and fair view
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the entitys internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated
nancial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufcient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid nancial statements, give
the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India:

The Company has decided to come out of this joint venture.

Company is joint venture entity of NHPC, Jammu & Kashmir State Power Development Corporation (JKSPDC) and PTC
India Ltd. with equity participation of 49:49:02. During last year, due to less than proportionate contribution by other
joint venture partners, proportionate holding of NHPC in the said entity had increased from 49% to 82%. As such, said
entity was considered as subsidiary instead of joint venture as at 31.03.2013. However during current year, other partners
have also brought in their proportionate share and the said entity has been considered as joint venture of NHPC.
The above joint venture entities are incorporated in India. The Companys share of the assets and liabilities as on 31st March
2014 and income and expenses for the nancial year ended 31.03.2014 in respect of joint venture entities are based on audited
