The power sector is one of the crucial inputs to the growth of other industrial sectors and overall economic growth of India. It has been rightly awarded the status of an infrastructure sector and can avail of a tax holiday and priority status in bank lending. 

India has fourth largest installed generating capacity in world but the per capita consumption of electricity is very low, owing to a huge gap between demand and supply of power. Traditionally the power sector was dominated by the public sector but has now been opened for competition from private and foreign players by the government sector. 

The power sector is highly regulated by the government and is dependent on the policies framed regarding bidding for power projects. Regulations regarding transmission of the power between states and pricing for power supply to consumers is also decided by the government. 

While other infrastructure sectors such as telecom, roads, and airports have seen much progress in the last few years as India embarked on a fast growth track, the power sector has lagged behind with not much progress. 

The “India Power Market Forecast And Opportunities 2014” report looks at the following key areas:
