The other projects consisting of Sinter plant and Steel Melting Shop are in advanced stage and is expected to be commissioned by January, 2008. In continuation with its growth plan, the Company undertook a number of expansion projects including purchase of Steel Unit of HEG Ltd. and purchase of 100% shareholding of Nilachal Iron and Power Ltd. which is engaged in the manufacture of Sponge Iron.

The Total Income of the merged entity stood at Rs.1,07,53.068 millions. The Profit before Tax was Rs. 9,58.207 millions and Profit after Tax was Rs. 6,20.022 millions. The said figures include transactions arising out of amalgamation of erstwhile Shri Ramrupai Balaji Steels Limited, with effect from the appointed date 1st April, 2006 and hence are not comparable with previous year figures. 

Expansion and New Projects

The impressive growth of economy has resulted in buoyant demand for Steel.

With a view of long term prospects, the Company is planning expansions both by way of implementation of new projects and acquisitions. 

The Board of Approval for the Special Economic Zones (SEZs) of Government of India, in their meeting held on 5th June, 2007, had granted in-principle approval to the Company for setting up a Steel Plant in SEZ in the state of West Bengal. 

The Company has entered into an arrangement with HEG Ltd for purchasing of their Steel Unit (consisting of Steel Billets Plant of 1,00,000 tons per annum, Sponge Iron Plant of 1,20,000 tons per annum and 12.8 MW Captive Power Plant) situated in the district Durg, in the State of Chhattisgarh, The Steel Unit has been transferred to the Company effective from 1st August, 2007 subject to the approval of the respective High Courts, other regulatory authorities and necessary compliances. 


The Company has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on 21st July, 2007 for purchase of 100% shareholding of Nilachal Iron and Power Ltd, (NIPL), NIPL is having a Sponge Iron Plant of the capacity 1,05,000 tons per annum and its plant located in the District of Saraikela Kharsawan, in the State of Jharkhand. 
 The Board has further decided to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Govt. of West Bengal for setting up a five (5) Million ions steel Plant, three (3) Million tons cement Plant and 1215 MW Captive Power Plant within a period of ten (10) years involving investment worth Rs.16,0000.000 in the district of Purulia, West Bengal.

Future Outlook 

The steel sector of the country is on roll. The buoyancy in the sector continued because of strong demand in various user sectors such as automobiles, infrastructure and capital goods etc. These sectors are doing well and would need additional steel in the coming years. 

In spite of continuous rise in the input cost, the Company will continue to implement its growth initiatives in order to secure its long term competitive position. 

Conservation of Energy, Technology Absorption, Foreign Exchange Earnings and Outgo

As per the requirements of Section 217(1)(e) of the Companies Act, M6 read with the Companies (Disclosures of Particulars in the Report of Board of Directors) Rules, 1988, the relevant information pertaining to Conservation of Energy, Technology Absorption and Foreign Exchange Earnings and outgo are given in the Annexure forming part of this Report.

Management Discussion and Analysis Report 

Industry Structure & Developments 

2006-07 was another eventful year for Indian steel industry. The Indian steel industry ranked seventh in the world crude steel production with an annual production of about 45 million tons in 2006-07. The Indian Economy witnessed robust growth with the GDP growing by 9.4% as compared to 9.0% in the previous year. The main drivers of this growth were the manufacturing and services sector. The Indian Iron and Steel Industry has come to occupy a dominant position in the socio-economic development of the country.

Growth in domestic steel demand, a vigorous growth in domestic steel production led by the secondary steel making sector availability of mineral resources, abundant labour as well as professional and technical expertise, all operating in the facilitating back drop provided by a free market economy have boosted the growth of this industry. The growth in steel consumption is characterized by substantial investments in the sector, both towards enhancement of existing capacities as well as setting-up of green-field projects. Domestic consumption of non-alloy steel, at 44 million tons, was 12% higher as compared to last year. The current growth of Indian economy is likely to sustain the surge witnessed in domestic consumption during the year.

 
Driven by the continued growth in developing and emerging economies, global growth is likely to remain robust. In India, the growth in automotive sector, investments in housing projects, thrust on infrastructure development and rise in personal disposable incomes of households are expected to boost the demand for steel for the years to come. 

Opportunities and Threats 

The growth of the Indian Economy and sustained increase in demand have resulted in large scale consolidation in the industry. This has enabled companies to lower production cost and has also allowed stringent supply-side discipline. The growth in both global and domestic demand is creating enormous opportunities for being explored by main-line steelmakers.

Value added approach to steel would ensure concentration of efforts on manufacture of high-end products with resultant positive multipler effect on margins. Better demand forecasting and availability of suitable information on capacity development would enable steelmakers to rapidly change and adjust their product portfolios. 
 
 The tightening of monetary policy to contain rising inflationary pressures, strengthening of rupee and continuing exports of iron ore are some of the major concerns of the Industry which is having a dampening effect on spending on infrastructure, lowering of export realization and increase in raw material prices. Further the rise in oil prices is also increasing the transportation cost. The rise in steel capacities in China are also area of concerns of over capacity.

Outlook 
 
The continued robust growth of economy which is anticipated to remain at this level for years to come will boost the demand of steel to levels where major expansions will be required to absorb the effect of it. The company has embarked on a large scale expansion of the existing manufacturing facilities whereby Rs. 16,0000.000 millions will be invested over a period of ten years for setting up a 5 million steel plant, 3 million cement plant and 1215 MW of captive power plant in the district of Purulia, in the state of West Bengal. The Development Agreement with Government of West Bengal and other related statutory bodies for this project is likely to be inked very soon. In addition, the company has acquired Steel Unit of HEG Ltd. in the State of Chattishgarh and Nilachal Iron and Power Ltd. in the State of Jharkhand. The other projects are going as per schedule out of which, Blast Furnace of the capacity 4,28,750 MT per annum has been commissioned on 27th March, 2007. 

Financial Performance 


The total income of the Company during the financial year ended 31st March, 2007 was Rs. 1,07,53.068 millions. During t4 year the Profit after tax stood at Rs. 6,20.022 millions. The reserves stood at Rs. 19,87.793 millions as on 31st March, 2007.
