The 1,200-Mw power plant will cost Rs 3,500 crore, 30 per cent of which will be through equity contribution and internal accruals. The remaining 70 per cent would be debt, he said. Dasgupta said the power plant which will use the imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) as fuel, will be built in 33 months from the date of award of contract that may happen in the second quarter of 2010. The 70 per cent of the power generated at the plant will be sold to states like Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.
