Bajel Projects Ltd has announced that it has won a power transmission-related order worth Rs.1,500 crore – the single-largest in the company’s history.

Placed by project SPV “Lakadia A Power Transmission Ltd,” the EPC order relates to building transmission lines and substation augmentation works associated with an interstate transmission system (ISTS) scheme for renewable energy evacuation in Gujarat.

The order entails building 765kV lines from Halvad to Gujarat, and additional works at the existing substations at Halvad, Vadodara and South Olpad. The entire project is geographically located in Gujarat.

The EPC mandate is scheduled to commission in 36 months from the date of award, Bajel Projects said.

Lakadia A Power Transmission

Lakadia A Power Transmission Ltd is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AnantGrid Projects One Pvt Ltd (AGPOPL) — a company jointly owned by Bajel Projects Ltd (26 per cent) and National Investment and Infrastructure Fund (74 per cent)

AGPOPL acquired project SPV “Lakadia A Power Transmission Ltd” on October 12, 2026, after having emerged winning developer under the tariff-based competitive bidding (TBCB) framework

The ISTS-TBCB scheme to be developed by the project SPV is formally termed as “Common Transmission System for evacuation of power from Lakadia (Phase-II: 7.5 GW), Jam Khambhaliya (Phase-II: 5.5GW) and Jamnagar (Phase-I: 1 GW) – Part-A.”

This scheme, in turn, is a component of an overarching scheme aiming at creating evacuation infrastructure for 14 GW of renewable energy from RE-rich zones in Gujarat. The overall scheme has been divided into five independent ISTS schemes, which have since been awarded to their winning developers under TBCB.
