Solarworld Files Arbitration Petition Against SJVN Green Energy
Solarworld Energy Solutions filed an arbitration petition on Jan 24, 2026, against SJVN Green Energy and HDFC Bank. The petition concerns a 260 MW and 100 MW project execution. Financial claims include ₹3.01 crore BG and ₹22.58 crore for the 100 MW, and ₹10.75 crore BG and ₹56.02 crore for the 260 MW project.
The litigation involves significant financial claims related to bank guarantees and other dues for two substantial power projects, indicating a medium impact on the company's financial standing and operations.
The company has initiated litigation against a counterparty due to contractual disputes and project delays, which indicates a negative development.
Solarworld Energy Solutions Limited has filed a petition under Section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, on January 24, 2026, before the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi. This legal action pertains to two projects, a 260 Mw and a 100 Mw project, currently being executed for SJVN Green Energy Limited (SGEL).
The dispute arises from delays attributed to SGEL's inability to fulfill its contractual obligations. The contract was suspended by SGEL until December 2025. Subsequently, SGEL conditionally involved the Performance Bank Guarantee, subject to its extension by Solarworld. In response, Solarworld has sought relief from the High Court rather than extending the bank guarantees further. The company is also seeking the release of retention amounts and other dues.
The expected financial implications include a Bank Guarantee of ₹3,01,83,129 and other claims of ₹22,58,94,271 for the 100 MW contract. For the 260 MW contract, the Bank Guarantee amounts to ₹10,75,82,572, with other claims totaling ₹56,02,87,306. The opposing parties in this litigation are SJVN Green Energy Limited and HDFC Bank Limited.
