The termination pertains specifically to the Balance of Plant (BoP) package, including associated civil works for the 1 x 800 MW power project. The notice of termination was issued by TNPGCL on July 18, 2025, and officially received by BGR Energy on July 22, 2025, the company said in a filing to stock exchanges.
