Rajesh Power Services received a 362.82 crore rupee turnkey order from Paschim Gujarat Vij Company to convert overhead 11 kV and low-tension networks into underground cable in Jamnagar.
The same Gujarat distribution utility awarded a separate 333.80 crore rupee package to another supplier on the same day, so close to 700 crore rupees of underground conversion work went out from one discom in a single session. Underground conversion is loss-reduction and storm-resilience spending funded through central distribution schemes, which makes it a policy-driven order stream rather than a demand-driven one. That makes the pace of it dependent on scheme disbursement rather than on power demand.
