What happened
NEEPCO is 'a central public sector undertaking' and 'a subsidiary of the Maharatna PSU, NTPC Ltd'; the NTPC Limited Wikipedia page lists 'NEEPCO' and 'THDC India Limited' as subsidiaries (source: NTPC Limited and NEEPCO pages).
The takeover date is stated on the NEEPCO page: 'On 21 November 2019, the Government of India approved the take over of NEEPCO by NTPC Limited'; the THDC India Limited page records the same 21 November 2019 decision (source: NEEPCO page, THDC India Limited page).
NEEPCO's headquarters is Shillong, Meghalaya, India, and it was formed on 2 April 1976 to plan, investigate, design, construct, generate, operate and maintain power stations in the North Eastern Region of India (source: NEEPCO page).
Shillong is 'the capital of Meghalaya, India' and 'the headquarters of the East Khasi Hills district' (source: Shillong page).
What we could not confirm
NEEPCO's Shillong headquarters address and 100% NTPC shareholding could not be re-verified in an accessible official excerpt (neepco.co.in rendered only as 'NEEPCO'; ntpc.co.in blocked by bot check; DPE survey PDF returned 403). Schedule/Miniratna label, financials (revenue/profit FY2024-25 or FY2025-26), employee count and exact closing date of the 2020 deal are left null. No dated 2025 or 2026 official development was verifiable through accessible pages, so the dated CCEA decision (2019-11-21) is used as the most recent verifiable strategic development date.
