In early morning trading today, shares of Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL), a prominent engineering and manufacturing firm in the energy and infrastructure sectors, increased by 4% to ₹308 after the company secured a major contract to establish a 1600 MW thermal power plant in Koderma, Jharkhand.

According to a statement from the power ministry, DVC finalized the tender with Bharat Heavy Electricals for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) package of Koderma TPS (2X800 MW) in Jharkhand, for ₹13,300 crore on June 26, 2024.

This investment, which would also have a significant influence on the local economy and benefit people, would increase DVC’s installed thermal generation capacity to 8140 MW by 2030.
