MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS

 

GENERATION

 

India ranks 5th in the world in terms of total installed capacity, it is one of the lowest in terms of per capita consumption of power. The National Electricity Policy (NEP) stipulates “power for all” and annual per capita consumption of electricity to rise to 1000 units by 2012. The policy aims at inclusive growth of power sector by providing adequate reliable power, at reasonable rates with access to all citizens. The 17th Electric Power Survey (EPS) forecast that the peak demand would grow at a CAGR of 7.8% in the 11th Plan as compared to growth in supply expected around 6.8% to 7% resulting in continued upward trend of power deficit in India. The demand projections as per 17th EPS for next 11-12 years on all-India basis show that the energy requirement and annual peak load will be 2.30 times and 2.50 times respectively of the existing requirement.

 

However, over last 3 years, the CAGR of peak demand as well as energy shortages have shown a downward trend as compared to projections considered in the 17th EPS.

 

OUTLOOK

 

Power sector in India is poised to have a CAGR of 9.0%- 9.8% upto end of 12th Plan and hence offers multiple opportunities of growth to public as well as private sector entities so as to achieve Government’s objective of “power for all”. The main features of India’s power generation programme would be:

 

• To continue rapid capacity addition

• To augment indigenous power equipment manufacturing capacity

• To reduce uncertainties of supply of energy

• To reduce price vulnerability

• Minimize the risks arising out of equipment failures

• Diversification of its fuel basket

 

They attempt to give some more details concerning certain aspects of the sector and the Company by way of information and analysis.

 

Segment-wise performance

 

For the purpose of compiling segment-wise results, the business of the Company is segregated into ‘Generation’ and ‘Other Business’. The Company’s principal business is generation and sale of bulk power. Other business includes providing consultancy, project management and supervision, oil and gas exploration and coal mining.

 

The profit before tax and interest in the generation business for the fiscal 2010 was Rs.101,524 million as against Rs.90,531 million for fiscal 2009. Excluding income tax payable/recoverable from customers amounting to Rs.4,714 million for fiscal 2010 and Rs.7,583 million for fiscal 2009, the above has increased by 28% mainly on account of increased generation. For the profit before tax on ‘Other Business’ represented by income from consultancy, the same was Rs.582 million for fiscal 2010 and Rs.418 million for the previous fiscal registering a growth of 39%.

Overview of Organisation

 

India’s power company, NTPC was set up in 1975 to accelerate power development in India. NTPC is emerging as a diversified power major with presence in the entire value chain of the power generation business. Apart from power generation, which is the mainstay of the company, NTPC has already ventured into consultancy, power trading, ash utilisation and coal mining. NTPC ranked 317th in the ‘2009, Forbes Global 2000’ ranking of the World’s biggest companies.


The total installed capacity of the company is 32,194 MW (including JVs) with 15 coal based and 7 gas based stations, located across the country. In addition under JVs, 4 stations are coal based and another station uses naptha/LNG as fuel. By 2017, the power generation portfolio is expected to have a diversified fuel mix with coal based capacity of around 53,000 MW, 10,000 MW through gas, 9,000 MW through Hydro generation, about 2000 MW from nuclear sources and around 1000 MW from Renewable Energy Sources (RES). NTPC has adopted a multi-pronged growth strategy which includes capacity, addition through green field projects, expansion of existing stations, joint ventures, subsidiaries and takeover of stations.

 

NTPC has been operating its plants at high efficiency levels. Although the company has 18.10% of the total national capacity, it contributes 28.60% of total power generation due to its focus on high efficiency.

 

 

In October 2004, NTPC launched its Initial Public Offering (IPO) consisting of 5.25% as fresh issue and 5.25% as offer for sale by Government of India. NTPC thus became a listed company in November 2004 with the government holding 89.5% of the equity share capital. The rest is held by Institutional Investors and the Public. The issue was a resounding success. NTPC is among the largest five companies in India in terms of market capitalisation.

 

At NTPC, People before Plant Load Factor is the mantra that guides all HR related policies. NTPC has been awarded No.1, Best Workplace in India among large organisations and the best PSU for the year 2009, by the Great Places to Work Institute, India Chapter in collaboration with The Economic Times.
