New Delhi: In what is set to trigger a high-stakes race in the power sector, the Public Enterprises Selection Board (PESB) is likely to float the vacancy for the coveted post of Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of NHPC Limited as early as today or tomorrow, top sources have revealed.
With the tenure of the current NHPC CMD nearing its end this year, all eyes are now on the PESB as it gears up to open the gates for fresh contenders to lead India’s premier hydropower giant. According to insiders, the process is in its final stages, and the official notification could drop any moment.
This prestigious position is expected to attract some of the brightest minds from across the energy and infrastructure sectors, given NHPC’s critical role in driving the country’s renewable energy ambitions.

The official advertisement, detailing eligibility criteria and the application process, is awaited and could mark the beginning of an intense battle for one of the most influential roles in the power sector.
