NHPC Company background
NHPC Limited was incorporated on November 7, 1975, by the Government of India to plan, develop, and operate hydropower projects. The registered office is at NHPC Office Complex, Sector-33, Faridabad, Haryana. NHPC is listed on NSE (NHPC) and BSE (533098) since September 1, 2009.
