Adani Group highlighted the urgency of clearing these dues before the fiscal year's end. Concerns were raised regarding the pricing of imported coal and allegations of overbilling, despite Adani Power reporting significant profits. To address a power subsidy request, Bangladesh Bank approved over $1.12 billion for electricity charges. Unpaid bills for government and private power companies total Tk 42,707.16 crore.
