The recent decision by the state government to offload 49 per cent stake in state-owned GSPC Power Company (GPPC) to Mumbai-based Swan Energy for Rs 381 crore has assumed political overtones with the state Congress questioning the rationale behind the deal, demanding to even scrap it. Leader of Opposition, Gujarat Assembly, Shaktisinh Gohil today alleged at a press conference that Gujarat government had given away GPPL to Swan Energy on nearly a platter. Gohil said that the private player would be able to about twice-thrice the deal amount as it has a right to sell 70 per cent of the carbon credits for a period of ten years. This newspaper has recently reported that Swan would be in a position to rake in about Rs 700-800 crore from carbon credits sale. Drawing comparisons with valuations of other power companies, Congress alleged that equity worth Rs 260 per share was given to Swan for just Rs 37 per share.
