Gautam Adani wants Bangladesh to pay $800 million power dues soon: ‘I request…’

Gautam Adani, Adani Group chairman, reportedly reached out to chief advisor to the Bangladesh government Muhammad Yunus seeking his intervention in the early clearance of $800 million of receivables due from Bangladesh Power Development Board to Adani Power for electricity supplies.

 

In a letter, Gautam Adani wrote as per Economic Times, "The lenders have now been severe on us as we continue to meet our commitment to Bangladesh. I would request for your kind intervention in early liquidation of $800 million of receivables due from Bangladesh Power Development Board."

 

He said, “May we request for regular payment of routine bills as we continue with our commitment on supplies and in addition significant tranches be made each month to liquidate outstanding dues.”

This comes as it was reported that the Bangladesh Power Development Board owes Adani Power $800 million in power supply dues for a period of eight to nine months.

Adani Power supplies electricity to Bangladesh from its 1.6 GW coal-fired power plant in Jharkhand through a dedicated transmission corridor which it began from last June.
