Synopsis: Sugs Lloyd Limited has secured a Letter of Award worth approximately Rs. 56.57 crore from North Bihar Power Distribution Company Limited for setting up 16 MW of grid-connected rooftop solar projects under the PM Surya Ghar-Muft Bijli Yojana. The project will be executed under the Utility-Led Aggregation model and carries a 10-year contract tenure.
Shares of Sugs Lloyd Limited are likely to remain in focus after the company announced that it has received a Letter of Award (LoA) from North Bihar Power Distribution Company Limited (NBPDCL), a Government of Bihar undertaking, for the development of rooftop solar projects under the Centre’s flagship PM Surya Ghar-Muft Bijli Yojana.
Sugs Lloyd Limited has a total market capitalization of approximately Rs. 282.75 crore. The company’s shares were trading at Rs. 121.80 apiece on the stock exchange, up by 5 percent during the session. The stock has surged around 5.91 percent over the last five trading sessions. The stock has declined around 0.61 percent over the last month, reflecting positive momentum. The stock touched a 52-week high of Rs. 148.70 and a 52-week low of Rs. 82.50.
According to the company’s exchange filing, the order involves the setting up of cumulative capacity of 16 MW grid-connected rooftop solar projects in the Chapra Circle of NBPDCL under the CAPEX plus RESCO mode and the Utility-Led Aggregation (ULA) model of the PM Surya Ghar-Muft Bijli Yojana.
The total contract value stands at approximately Rs. 56.57 crore (excluding GST), making it a significant addition to the company’s order book. The project was awarded by a domestic government entity, further strengthening Sugs Lloyd’s presence in India’s rapidly growing renewable energy infrastructure sector.
As per the terms of the award, the commissioning period is 9 months from the signing of the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), while the overall contract tenure will extend for 10 years from the Commercial Operation Date (COD). This provides not only execution visibility but also a long-term project association under one of India’s largest rooftop solar initiatives.
The order is strategically important because it aligns with the Government of India’s ambitious target of accelerating rooftop solar adoption through the PM Surya Ghar scheme, which aims to provide free electricity benefits to millions of households while boosting renewable energy capacity nationwide.
From an industry perspective, utility-led aggregation models are emerging as a key mechanism to accelerate rooftop solar deployment by reducing customer acquisition costs, improving project execution efficiency, and ensuring smoother financing and implementation. Companies with proven EPC capabilities stand to benefit significantly from the scale-up of such programs.
The latest order also reinforces Sugs Lloyd’s positioning in the renewable energy EPC segment at a time when investments in solar infrastructure continue to accelerate across India. The company’s expertise in engineering, procurement, construction, electrical transmission, and distribution projects positions it well to capitalize on the country’s energy transition.
Importantly, the company clarified that neither the promoter group nor related parties have any interest in the awarding entity, and the transaction does not constitute a related-party transaction.
Incorporated in 2009, Sugs Lloyd Limited is a technology-driven engineering and construction company engaged in renewable energy projects, particularly solar energy, alongside electrical transmission, distribution, and civil EPC services. The company has been expanding its footprint across India’s clean energy and infrastructure sectors.
The Rs. 56.57 crore rooftop solar order could strengthen revenue visibility over the next several quarters and further establish Sugs Lloyd as a beneficiary of India’s growing renewable energy and distributed solar infrastructure push.
