S

Operator

The next question is from the line of Apoorva Bahadur from Goldman Sachs.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

You mentioned you're planning QIP of SGEL this year. So any sort of understanding that you can provide on what could be the size of this offering?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Almost 10% to 15%, up to maximum 20% we will be offering of the current equity in this year.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

Okay. So any sense on the size in terms of the amount that you're thinking?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

It will be determined that we are not in a position to tell you immediately.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

Sure, sure. I understand. Sir, secondly, can you throw some light on the incentive in terms in this quarter? And also if there's any under recovery.

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Incentive current total incentive is INR 182 crore. Out of that capacity, incentive is INR 157.71 crores and the UI is INR 24.48 crores. Last year, it was -- total incentive was INR 253.92 crore. Out of that capacity, incentive was INR 210.29 crores and UI was INR 43.63 crores. Now the incentive, in fact, after September, the government has put on restriction for operating the plant above 100%.

Earlier we were operating the plant up to 110%. But now the restriction has been put what we can only operate during the peak season. And that's why there is some less income on the incentive. So for the current quarter is concerned, current quarter the total incentive is for Q1, INR 5 crore has debt in last year same Q1 was INR 24.45 crores.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

Only INR 5 crores in this quarter?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Yes, yes.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

And this is about the capacity?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Yes.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

And sir, you mentioned about this.

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Yeah. This capacity incentive during the quarter was INR 1.37 crores and UI was INR 3.66 crores. Last year capacity in [indiscernible] the first quarter was INR 25.36 crores for the quarter.

S
Sushil Sharma
executive

What was our -- [indiscernible] has been declared by from June to September. So that's why we have deepened this capacity challenges -- incentive.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

Okay, sir. And you mentioned about this restriction which the government had put on operating the plan beyond 100%. So why was this the case? I mean, what's the rationale of the government for doing this?

S
Sushil Sharma
executive

This is the new regulations given by the CRC. It is applicable to all the partitions, all [ PCOs, hydro PCOs ].

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

Understood, sir. Sir, any under recovery that we witnessed this...

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

No. There's no under recovery, but we have not achieved the green energy. In that case, we have [ TMD ] INR 41 crores against the shortfall in the generation. And that we have built to the beneficiaries.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

And sir, at an overall portfolio number what's the shortfall?

A
Akhileshwar Singh

Shortfall in energy generation?

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

Demand energy generation.

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Yeah. Energy, demand energy has mostly 8,533 million units, we have generated 8,131.38 million unit. Almost 250 million units is shortfall.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

And sir, we have built this entire amount, so it's all recorded in revenue or...

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

It has been reported in the revenue. We have since INR 41 crores.

A
Apoorva Bahadur
analyst

Understood, sir, sir. Sir later, there is no sort of requirement of approval from the commission for recovering this?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

No, it is as per the regulation. It is as per the regulations.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Aniket Mittal from SBI Mutual Fund.

A
Aniket Mittal
analyst

In the finance statement your...

Operator

[Operator Instructions].

A
Aniket Mittal
analyst

I am on the handset, am i audible?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Yes, yes. Go ahead, but speak loud.

A
Aniket Mittal
analyst

Sure. Sir, the depreciation and amortization line item seems to be a very big jump this quarter. Could you elaborate on that?

S
Sushil Sharma
executive

In fact, we have gone from the impairment of some of the assets like the Sadla power project Khirvire power projects and Charanka wind power project. [indiscernible] with the capital investment was not up to the level and that's why as per the index 36, we have gone for the impairment of the assets. And total INR 138.70 crores has been booked to the impairment.

A
Aniket Mittal
analyst

Okay. Sir, could you explain the difference of the revenue not being commenced to our expectations, why is that?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

The study for the -- in fact, if you go -- this value for this, mainly it is on account of the Sadla Wind power project. This tariff of the Sadla wind power project is INR 2.43 per unit, whereas during the period, it was commissioned in '18, '19, and the tariff was almost above INR 3. But somehow we were not having the PPA and we were compelled to sign the PPA with the Juvenile at the lower tariff. And that's why we have to go for the impairment loss. And after doing exercise, it is coming to INR 101 crore in the Sadla project. And it can be reverse in the next year. If situation will improve.

And similarly, in Khirwire, the designed energy of the project was 85 million units, but it has not -- touched the energy. Maximum generation has come to 73 million units, and it is average generating per year 60 million units. That's due to less generation of the project during -- consistently during 5, 6 years. We have to take almost 10 years. You have to take the impairment. And that's why in Khirwire, it is coming to INR 34.88 crore.

A
Aniket Mittal
analyst

Okay. The other question was around Buxar I understand earlier there were issues related to land acquisition that we were facing. What's the progress on that?

S
Sushil Sharma
executive

We have roughly said that we are facing -- we were facing land issues. The land issue is still going on, but for this -- making this our project commissioning, we have gone for alternative arrangements. So with those alternative arrangements, we are -- we will be capable to commission the project.

A
Aniket Mittal
analyst

Sir, could you elaborate on that what are the alternative that is going for? What's the amount of land that we still need to acquire, if any?

S
Sushil Sharma
executive

Mainly this -- we were facing problem, this election's railway corridor and water corridor. For water corridor, government of Bihar has already given us the government land so that we can lay a pipeline on that government land. And for this railway corridor, we have taken land, some land from the railways and some land we are in the process of having agreement with some stakeholders. And with this -- this arrangement, we are able -- we will be able to run the project.

A
Aniket Mittal
analyst

Okay. Okay. And lastly, sir, on the -- on the Arun-3 project, I think, timelines for them have kept on increasing. And I think there were some transmission-related issues that we are facing with. Could you elaborate a bit on that?

S
Sushil Sharma
executive

Transmission related issues, actually, we -- this only issue in transmission line is the land acquisition. And we are constantly in touch with the -- even higher offices of Nepal Ministry. We are also in touch with the -- even we have requested even Prime Minister of Nepal to help us in acquiring to expedite the land acquisition process. So with these help from Nepal government, I think we will be able to commissions us on the [ starfish ] line, well in time.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Santhosh Kumar [indiscernible], an individual investor.

U
Unknown Analyst

You see in the last conference call, which has been in February, you were given several targets for Buxar June '24, for Arun-3, February '25 and for Bikaner 1,000-megawatt by December 2024. Now I want to know whether there has been any slippage in these targets? And what is the renewed expectation of commissioning?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Just answered these questions. Because of education by local farmers and disruption in our smart activities, this Buxar commissioning has been slipped to 3, 4 months from June. And because of challenge in dam area in this Arun-3 project. The commissioning target has slightly also slipped further. And in Bikaner projects, so we were facing some problem with the panels, local domestic panels. So with this -- now, I think the situation will improve by -- we'll be getting panel from June itself, and the commissioning will be done in quarter -- quarter 3 of this financial year of Bikaner 1,000 megawatts.

Operator

The next question is from the line of [ Arman ] from BlueSky Capital.

U
Unknown Analyst

Am I audible?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

Yes.

U
Unknown Analyst

In the previous call, you told a target of in 2026 around 12,000 megawatts. Right now in beginning, you told about 2,000 around, we will be installing in this financial year and next financial year. So that comes to calculation around 6,500. So which are those projects which we are -- which will bring operative index in this financial year and next financial year. And why the gap before we have the target of 12,000 megawatts and now it's only coming up to 6,500 megawatt, what's the reason behind that?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

In fact, [indiscernible] 1,000 megawatt to become a project and Arun-3 and [indiscernible] mainly because of the debt, we are lagging behind. But this slippage will be only for 5, 6 months. We will be covering almost 12,000 megawatt by pre-March '26.

U
Unknown Analyst

Okay. And what are the reason that -- just a perspective is that we are seeing the appointment of CMD not for the years like for 4 years or 5 years has been going on for the 3 months. What is the reason for that? And when can we see a continuous standout for 5 years also for the CMD position?

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

In fact, the CMD post election has already been done. And in the meantime, this charge has been given for the 3 months, and we are expecting within 3 months, the regular appointment will be issued for the national power.

Operator

U

No, my concern is it will be sizable amount and your project -- so many projects are facing delays in commissioning. So how will you service such a large debt when your -- current revenue base is relatively small in comparison to the projects SJVN undertaken.

A
Akhileshwar Singh
executive

In fact, during the transaction, we had to pay the interest only, not the repayment of the principal amount. And that we are having sufficient projection. We will share also, in fact, it was on our website also. And the minority project in the renewable sectors, we are commissioning in next year. And from that, the revenue generations constitute, we are not seeing any problem in servicing what we take.

U
