First of all,the Calvin cycle is part of the dark reactions or carboxylation.The light reaction is photophosphorylation.
In photophosphorylation,there are two reaction centers: photosystem 1 and photosystem 2. Light provides the energy to excite chlorophyll molecules at both photosystems and this molecule transfers an excited electron to the electron accepter.In photosystem 1,the electron is obtained from the splitting of water - hydrolysis - and the electron acceptor is phaeophytin. The electron passes along a series of electron acceptors and ATP is made from ADP.The electron is passed to photosystem 1 where it is again collected by an electron acceptor and passes along another series of electron acceptor.NADPH is made here.

in case you're refering to easy reaction in flora then there are various cycles which happen, theres electron delivery and then some ATP is synthesized and greater. Which won't be able to be defined out right here

Go to these web sites you can get an idea of what happens to NADPH and other light reactions of calvin cycle

hope it will help
