1.2 ESTABLISHMEMT:
The company was founded on 7 November 1975 by India's former prime minister Indira Gandhi as
National Thermal Power Corporation
In 1983, NTPC began commercial operations and earned profits of INR 4.5 crores in FY 1982–83. By the
end of 1985, it had achieved power generation capacity of 2000 MW.
NTPC got listed on BSE and NSE on 5 November 2004. Against the issue price of ₹62 per share, it closed
the first day of listing with ₹75.55 per [Link] the day of listing, it became the third largest company in
India in terms of market capitalisation.
In October 2005, the company's name was changed from National Thermal Power Corporation Limited to
NTPC Limited. The primary reason for this change was the company's foray into hydro and nuclear based
power generation along with backward integration of coal mining.
In 2006, it entered into an agreement with the government of Sri Lanka to set up two units of 250 MW
each in Trincomalee in Sri Lanka. During 2008 and 2011, NTPC entered into joint venture with BHEL,
Bharat Forge, NHPC, coal India , SAIL, NMDC, and NPCIL to expand its business of power
[Link] the end of 2010, its installed capacity crossed 31,000 MW.

CHAPTER: 4
MC KINSEY7’S MODE and Porter’s Five Force Model:
The McKinsey 7S Framework is a management model that looks at 7 internal elements of an organization to
ensure alignment and effectiveness. These are divided into:
Hard Elements: Strategy, Structure, Systems
Soft Elements: Shared Values, Style, Staff,
1. Strategy
NTPC’s strategy focuses on:
Sustainable energy growth with a shift from coal to renewable energy.
Capacity expansion in power generation (both thermal and non-thermal).
Diversification into areas like coal mining, power trading, and EV charging.
International projects to expand global presence.
2. Structure
A centralized hierarchical structure with functional and regional divisions.
NTPC is a Maharatna PSU under the Ministry of Power, which impacts its structure and
decision- making authority.
Structure supports large-scale operations across India with regional power stations.
3. Systems
Uses ERP systems (SAP) for operations and finance.
Performance appraisal systems, e-tendering, and e-procurement systems.
Emphasis on automation and digital transformation in plant operations
.
4. Shared Values
Vision: “To be the world’s leading power company, energizing India’s growth.”
Strong focus on ethics, sustainability, and nation-building.
Internal culture values safety, efficiency, innovation, and environmental responsibility.
5. Style (Leadership)
Top-down leadership style with consultative decision-making.
Emphasis on transformational leadership—driving innovation and sustainability.
Encourages a performance-oriented culture with clear accountability.
6. Staff
Over 17,000 employees.
Highly skilled technical and engineering talent.
Focus on training, development, and internal promotion.
NTPC has its own training institutes and emphasizes employee retention and growth.
7. Skills
Expertise in thermal power generation, now expanding to renewables, nuclear, and hydro.
Skilled in project management, operations, and large infrastructure development.
Increasing capabilities in digital tech, AI, and sustainable energy
NTPC has long-term coal linkages and owns captive coal mines.
It procures from government-controlled coal suppliers like Coal India.
With growing renewable energy use, NTPC is diversifying energy inputs, reducing dependence
on external suppliers.
Bargaining power is limited as NTPC often has the upper hand due to size and demand
.
3. Bargaining Power of Buyers (Customers) – Moderate
Major buyers are state electricity boards (SEBs) and distribution companies (DISCOMs).
These are usually government-owned, so prices are often regulated.
Delayed payments from DISCOMs affect NTPC’s cash flows.
However, buyers have limited choices due to infrastructure and location-based supply constraints.
Rising renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydro act as substitutes.
Energy efficiency initiatives, battery storage, and decentralized power (e.g., rooftop solar)
are growing.
Government push for clean energy makes substitutes a long-term threat.
Competition from other power producers like Adani Power, Tata Power, Reliance Power.
Rising private sector participation in renewables intensifies rivalry.
Margins can be tight due to regulated tariffs, despite high demand.
