• Diversified Japanese economic corporation, has made the largest solitary renewable energy financial investment right into India, with a $980 million (Rs 7200 crores) on sustainable significant Greenko Group Holdings. The deal is expected to be closed by the end of the year.

The Tokyo based company had $23.6 billion in reported revenues last year, making the Greenko wager one of its largest investments anywhere outside Japan.

For the Hyderabad-based Greenko Group, established by Anil Kumar Chalamalasetty and also Mahesh Kolli in 2004, the financial investment by Orix complies with previous investments from sovereign wealth funds GIC Investment of Singapore, and also the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, that have together pumped in over $2.2 billion in the firm. While GIC has 65.8 percent in the company, ADIA owns 16.5 percent. After the purchase closes, the promoters are expected to be entrusted to around 13 percent stake in the company.

Greenko, with an existing ability of 4 GW, and a pipe of over 8 GW, was probably one of minority firms that used an opportunity to spend a considerable amount, to the Japanese firm.
