"The aggregate consideration for Tata Power's 5 percent stake is USD 250 million, subject to certain adjustments," the filing said.

The company signed an agreement to sell its 30 percent stake in Arutmin and associated companies in coal trading and infrastructure to a Bakrie Group entity.
Tata Power's 4,000 MW ultra mega power project at Mundra in Gujarat continues to face trouble due to increase in the price of Indonesian coal. It had approached the electricity regulator CERC seeking higher tariff for Mundra project.
The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) had said that since there had been a rise in the price of imported coal from Indonesia the private power utility should be compensated.
A panel set up by the regulator reportedly suggested nearly 50 paise hike in tariff of the Mundra plant.
