India transmission projects – Bharat Pulse News

India has allowed four Chinese-linked power equipment companies with local manufacturing units to bid for government tenders linked to critical power projects, marking a selective relaxation of restrictions imposed after the 2020 border clash. Chinese-Linked Power Firms Get Tender Access TBEA Energy, Nanjing Electric India, New Northeast Electric India and Taikai Electric (India) have been permitted to participate in government tenders for critical power infrastructure projects. The exemption was issued by the Ministry of Finance on June 24 and will remain valid for two years. The order makes clear that the approval should not be treated as a precedent for other companies. India Power Transmission Expansion Push The relaxation follows a request from the Power Ministry for companies with manufacturing units in India and involvement in critical power projects. The move comes as India works to expand its transmission network to meet rising electricity demand and support renewable energy additions. The decision is expected to widen the pool of equipment suppliers at a time when transmission infrastructure is becoming central to India’s clean energy targets and grid expansion plans. China Bid Curbs Selectively Eased India had tightened rules for Chinese bidders after the 2020 border clash, requiring them to register with a government panel and secure political and security clearances before competing for state contracts. The latest exemption points to a limited, project-specific easing rather than a complete rollback of restrictions. It also reflects India’s need to balance national security concerns with urgent infrastructure requirements in the power sector.
