First water supply project in the Public Private Partnership framework

It is the first water supply project in India to be financed commercially on a limited recourse basis. A Concession Agreement has been Signed in 2000 between Govt of Tamilnadu, NTADCL and Tirupur Municipality(TM )

Water is being supplied to the dyeing and bleaching industries and domestic consumers in and around Tirupur. Domestic consumers of Tirupur Municipality(TM), fifteen villages panchayats and three town panchayats with a total population of 8,00,000 are also supplied with water. These provide umbrella coverage for the entire water supply requirements of Tirupur Planning area spread over 225 SqKm. In addition, water supply is being provided to enroute habitations in five wayside unions. The water supply project has been completed to time, cost and standards. NTADCL has already commenced supply of water to all consumers, both industrial and domestic continuously since 2005.
