Installation of co-generation power plant in Unit Rama Paper, 3.3 MW Turbine in Unit Nath Paper and 1 MW Solar power plant in Unit Nath Paper has substantially reduced Power and Fuel cost during the year.

Ratio of Power and fuel cost to Sales has come down to 8.34% during the year from 14.85% recorded in previous year. The benefit of reduced Power and Fuel Cost is likely to remain continue in ensuing years.
