In April, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) came up with a blanket commissioning time extension for all renewable energy projects under construction in the country because of the lockdown that followed the COVID-19 outbreak. The ministry granted an extension of 30 days for normalization in addition to the total lockdown period. According to the MNRE memo, the period of lockdown is from March 25, 2020, when the lockdown started, to May 31, 2020.
