India Ratings and Research (Ind- Ra) has affirmed state run hydro power giant NHPC Long-Term Issuer Rating at 'IND AAA' with stable outlook.
The NHPC operates its plants on the cost-plus regime, which provides a post-tax return on equity of 15.5-16.5 per cent, along with reasonable recovery of all costs, India Ratings said in the statement.
This allows for high cash flow predictability. Ind-Ra expects its upcoming plants to be operational under the same tariff regime, thereby reducing business risks, it said.
