The SPV holds a power purchase agreement (PPA) with Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) for a period of 25 years. The agreement secures an estimated annual revenue of approx. INR 150.48 Crs.

The acquisition structure involved a cash consideration for 6000 shares at a face value of Rs.10 each. This transaction grants Bondada Engineering Limited 60% of the paid-up equity share capital of Onix IPP Private Limited, establishing it as the majority shareholder.
