Metamorphosis
of Power Sector Market
Access & Convergence Regulator:
A Powerful Entity Power
Trading: a distinct possibility A recent notification by the CERC on tariffs may lead to creation of a market for bulk trading in power at inter-state level. We already have mature markets at retail levels in some of the developed countries. New issues are likely to emerge in this evolving market Radically
different environment Compelling
reasons for Change In the nineties, one was not able to achieve significant private sector participation in generation capacity addition but perhaps one learnt about the issues. On the learning curve, one realized that perhaps distribution should have been privatized first so that the utilities will have the revenue streams that can support additional investments and that perhaps one needed an independent regulator to ensure fair play between the investor and the consumer. With frequent governmental changes between 1994 and 1999, one also felt the need to insulate the sector from political uncertainty as well as interference. It was this realization and the sweeping changes taking places in the industry structures worldwide that lead to the reforms process as we see it today. Indeed there are compelling reasons for the Change that we see today. Who

ABOUT DELHI The capital city of modern India has behind it centuries of history, which has enriched its culture. Broad tree-lined avenues and vistas suddenly give in to narrow alleys of cobblestones - taking you to an age of kings, princes, valour and bravery. Small shops huddled together, groan under the burden of age; small "dhabas" (roadside restaurants) selling freshly prepared delicacies; a wonderful collection of curious, handicrafts, jewels and jwellery. All within a few meters of fast-food restaurants serving everything from pizzas and hamburgers to colas and lemonades; glitzy shopping plazas; air-conditioned designer boutiques. This reflects the true spirit of New Delhi. Delhi is one of the world's best shopping centres. From handicrafts and antiques to all modern utilities — Delhi's shopping centres offer you everything under the sun. Delhi has all the modern facilities for hosting Conferences. It has a number of good hotels, which offer the better of the two Worlds- International luxury combined with Oriental hospitality.
