EKI Energy Services shares are likely to remain in focus after the company received a Category ‘IV’ Inter-State Electricity Trading Licence from the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC), allowing it to undertake inter-state power trading operations across India for a period of 25 years.
In an exchange filing dated May 26, 2026, EKI Energy Services informed investors that the licence was granted through an order passed by CERC on May 24, 2026 in Petition No. 92/TD/2026. The licence has been issued under the Electricity Act, 2003 and the CERC Trading Licence Regulations, 2020.
The company said the approval authorises EKI Energy Services to undertake inter-state electricity trading activities across India, subject to compliance with regulatory conditions and applicable laws.
According to the detailed CERC order, the regulator observed that EKI Energy Services fulfilled the required financial and operational criteria for grant of the Category ‘IV’ licence, including minimum net worth, liquidity ratio and professional expertise requirements.
The order also highlighted the company’s experience in energy management, power trading and ESG-related operations through its management team.
CERC further stated that no objections or suggestions were received against the proposal during the public notice process before granting the licence.
The approval could help EKI expand beyond carbon credit and climate-focused services into electricity trading opportunities within India’s evolving energy market.
