Ceigall India Limited has received a Letter of Intent (LoI) from REC Power Development and Consultancy Limited (RECPDCL) for a major transmission infrastructure project in Gujarat valued at approximately ₹5,300 crore, including GST. The project will support the evacuation of 14 GW of renewable energy from key renewable energy zones across the state. 

The project, titled “Common Transmission System for evacuation of power from Lakadia (Phase-II: 7.5 GW), Jam Khambhaliya (Phase-II: 5.5 GW) and Jamnagar (Phase-I: 1 GW) – Part-B,” involves the development of a 765/400 kV Air Insulated Substation (AIS) along with approximately 300 km of transmission lines. 

Ceigall India is expected to complete the project within 36 months. Following commissioning, the company will operate the transmission system for a period of 35 years and receive annual transmission charges of ₹608.67 crore during the operational period. 

The transmission system is expected to play an important role in strengthening Gujarat’s power infrastructure and enabling the efficient evacuation of electricity generated from large renewable energy projects in Lakadia, Jam Khambhaliya and Jamnagar. The development comes as Gujarat continues to expand its renewable energy capacity and associated grid infrastructure.

Commenting on the project, Ramneek Sehgal, Managing Director of Ceigall India, said the development will contribute to critical transmission infrastructure in Gujarat and support efficient evacuation from major renewable energy generation regions. 

The project also marks another step in Ceigall India’s expansion beyond conventional infrastructure into the renewable energy and power transmission segments, strengthening its presence in India’s rapidly developing clean-energy infrastructure ecosystem.
