The company, which operates fast-food chains Domino's and Dunkin' Donuts, received approval in January to enter into a power purchase agreement and security subscription and shareholder agreement with O2 Renewable Energy XVI, a wholly-owned subsidiary of O2 Energy SG, Singapore.  Jubilant FoodWorks was to acquire a 6.32% stake in the wholly owned subsidiary of Singapore-based O2 Energy SG to purchase renewable energy power generated from the Captive Generating Plant.

As per the agreement, the company in March acquired 20,484 compulsorily convertible debentures and 2,27,603 equity shares.
