It is evident from the graph that the percentage increase in wind tariff is lower for FY 14-15 as compared to the increase in FY 13-14. Same in the case of Biomass tariff the percentage increase in tariff is more than 12% compared to previous year, which may be because of the increase in fuel cost and total plant operation cost.
