Indian solar plant builder Rays Power Infra Pvt Ltd has disposed of solar parks to two unnamed global investors for a total sum exceeding INR 7 billion (USD 90.7m/EUR 85.9m), the Press Trust of India (PTI) reported, quoting a company statement.

The divested solar power facilities are located in the Indian states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Telangana and have all been commissioned in the period 2017-2020. The assets are associated with INR 4 billion of debt.

According to the official, it will take the company less than three years to set up a new solar portfolio of 3 GW.
