As of May 2008, the company had inked a protocol of agreement for an export order, for supply of heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). Company had received an order from a major refinery in July of the year 2008, to supply pulverised coal fired boilers for their captive cogeneration plant valued at approximately Rs.8.2 billion and also in August of the same year 2008, received an order of Rs.4.15 billion, from a leading steel making company in August pf the year 2008, for setting up a captive power plant for their upcoming blast furnace complex on an EPC basis.  

 
Company is planning to set up a new Rs.5-billion manufacturing plant for large boilers of capacity 100 mw to 800 mw for power plants. In the first phase, the company will have a capacity to produce sub-critical boilers with total capacity of 1,500 mw per annum, which would entail an investment of Rs.3 billion. In the next phase the company will scale up the capacity of the boilers of equivalent to 3,000 mw with an additional investment of Rs.2 billion.

 

 

PERFORMANCE:

 

The total order booking for the year was Rs.57940.000 Millions as against Rs.35570.000 Millions, last year. The company completed the year with a record order book of Rs.53810.000 Millions. The year 2009-10 began with a lower order book, owing to the global financial crisis, resulting in the total income being marginally lower at Rs.32352.000 Millions, as compared to the previous year. Profit before tax and extraordinary items was Rs.3919.000 Millions compared to Rs.4179.000 Millions in the previous year. Profit, after tax and extraordinary items, was significantly lower at Rs.1414.000 Millions compared to Rs.2873.00 Millions in the previous year, owing to a one-time extraordinary expense of Rs.1149.00 Millions (net of tax) towards a business settlement. Earnings per share (EPS) dropped to Rs.118.700 Millions from Rs.241.100 Millions in 2008-09.

 

During the year, exports – including deemed exports – were lower at Rs.6565. 000 Millions from Rs.9123.000 Millions last year, a decline of 28% due to the continued financial turmoil in the global market.

 

COLLABORATION WITH GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY MAJORS

 

The company made significant moves that will help it  to  benefit  from the rapid growth happening in the country's power sector.  It  signed two joint venture agreements - with SPX Netherlands BV (SPX) for air  pollution  control equipment to help power plants meet  stringent  emission  norms  and  also  improve their thermal efficiencies; and  with  Babcock  and Wilcox  (B&W), USA for manufacturing supercritical boilers. Details of  the joint venture  UV)  company  formed with SPX is provided  in  the  'Subsidiaries'  section of this report. With  Babcock  and Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc. (B&W  PGG),  a  global leader  in power generation industry, Thermax has entered into an  alliance to  form  a  strategic joint venture to engineer,  manufacture  and  supply supercritical  boilers  for  the  Indian power sector.  The  JV  will  also manufacture subcritical boilers over 300 megawatts (MW) in size.

 

Thermax will own 51% share of the joint venture while B&W PGG will have 49% ownership.  The  company will bring to the Indian  power  sector  Thermax's expertise  of integrating energy and environment solutions and  B&W's  long history  of providing proven, state-of-the-art power generation  technology and world class project management capabilities. B&W was the first  company in the world to build a supercritical boiler.

 

This  technology  will allow the new JV to contribute  to  efficient  power generation  in  the ultra mega thermal plants planned to meet  the  massive energy requirements of the country. Utility boilers above 660 MW  generally fall  under the supercritical category. Operating at higher pressures than those  of subcritical boilers, they increase efficiency and  produce  more energy from the same amount of fuel.

 

The new joint venture is being established at a critical time when  India's ambitious  growth plans and its dependence on coal fired power  plants  for power  throw up tremendous energy and environment challenges. It will  help meet  the  challenges  of  energy efficient  power  generation,  a  crucial requirement  in the context of emission reduction and the need to  conserve fossil fuel.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW:

 

Economies, worldwide, are recovering from the severe downturn of 2008 that continued into 2009. Many countries are showing signs of small but positive growth   due  to  domestic  consumption  and  a  marginal  improvement   in international  trade. The recovery is uneven and the  business  environment for sustained growth is fragile. Much of the economic rebound is due to the strong  fiscal stimulus provided by the governments of both  developed  and developing countries.

 

In  developed  economies,  increasing unemployment,  rising  inflation  and tightening  credit  conditions  have  resulted  in  subdued  consumer   and investment  demand. Government plans to withdraw the financial stimulus  to control the ballooning fiscal deficit are met with concerns about  economic recovery  losing  momentum.  In the next couple of  years,  at  least,  the developed economies are not expected to provide a strong impetus to  global growth.

 

Displaying  remarkable  resilience in 2009-10, India continued  to  be  the second  fastest growing economy in the world. With the support  of  capital goods  and  consumer durables sectors, the Index of  Industrial  Production (IIP) growth for FY 10 is far higher, at 10.4% as compared to 2.8% in 2008-09.  Despite the negative impact of the agricultural sector, the  continued momentum  in  services  and  manufacturing  sectors  coupled  with   strong fundamentals  and  broad based recovery, have ensured a higher  GDP  growth rate.

 

The Union  Budget  2010-11 indicates a positive  outlook  for  the  Indian economy  in the near term. The economic agenda emphasises inclusive  growth and   development  of  infrastructure  in  both  urban  and  rural   areas. Rs.1735520.000 Millions  has been allotted for infrastructure  expansion,  which accounts  for  over  46% of the total allocation.  Budgetary  allotment  to power,  road  transport, shipping, urban infrastructure and  railways  will provide  the  much  needed  growth trajectory  for  the  manufacturing  and infrastructure related sectors.

 

In the recent past, averaging 4000 - 6000 MW a year, India has fallen short in  adding to its power generation capacity. However, the coming five  year plans  promise  to be different, with a dramatic  improvement  in  capacity addition. Supercritical technology has just begun to make headway in India, with the government approving a proposal for induction of this  technology. This  is a major stride for India in developing cleaner, high-capacity  and more efficient power generation capabilities and a boost for companies that provide supercritical technology.

 

While  constructively  engaging  with the international  community  at  the Copenhagen  conference  on  climate  change, India  has  pursued  a  strong domestic  agenda for addressing the issue. The National Solar Mission  with an  enabling  policy  framework  has been created  with  the  objective  of generating  20,000  MW  of  solar power by 2022. This  is  expected  to  be achieved   by  creating  favorable  conditions  for   solar   manufacturing capability, indigenous production and market leadership.

 

A  proposal to establish a National Clean Energy Fund for funding  research and  innovative projects in clean energy technologies and a  61%  increased budget outlay for new and renewable energy sector, provide the much  needed support to companies in related fields. Overall, the energy and environment sectors are poised to ride the wave of positive growth in the coming years.

 

 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS:

 

During  the  fiscal  year  2009-10, the company  witnessed  a  decline  in revenues, due to the lower order book of the previous years. It generated a total income of Rs.32352.000 Millions, with profit after tax at Rs.1414.000 Millions. Exports, including deemed exports, represented 20.3% of the total  income. With the economic situation recovering, the order book of the company  has improved and stands at Rs.53810.000 Millions on March 31, 2010.

 

The  company's  energy  business comprising Boiler  and  Heater,  Power,  and Cooling and Heating contributed to 75.6% of its income while the  environment business  comprising Air Pollution Control, Chemicals along with Water  and Wastewater Solutions generated 24.4%.

 

Industrial  growth,  particularly  in the  capital  goods  sector  remained subdued in the year 2008-09, affecting the order book and carry forward  of several  manufacturing  companies. Due to economic  uncertainty,  financial closure of most projects were delayed and orders were either put on hold or were postponed till the situation improved.

 

In 2009-10, with the improvement in the global economic scenario, many  of the  projects on hold were awarded, but with strict delivery schedules  and lower budgets. The innovation oriented projects initiated last fiscal  have been progressing well, with contributions from heating and cooling products supporting the company's business.

 

Thermax Innovation Council, established last year and chaired by Dr. R.  A. Mashelkar is providing guidance in nurturing an innovation ecosystem within the company's business divisions.

 

The company positioned itself for robust growth in  the Indian  power sector. It formed two joint venture partnerships with  global majors in the areas of energy and environment that are expected to  support the  growth in power. Thermax also made its entry in the utility  space  of independent power plants (IPP) by winning a project order.

 

With  the country's dependence on coal fired power plants  for  electricity generation, reduction of carbon footprint remains a daunting challenge. For reducing  emissions  and to counter the shortage of  fossil  fuels,  energy efficiency  has become very relevant in power generation. It  is  envisaged that  in  the twelfth five year plan about 60% of the 100,000  MW  capacity addition and about 90% of 102,000 MW in the thirteenth plan would be  based on supercritical technology.

 

Supercritical  technology,  with  its ability to  operate  at  increasingly higher  temperatures  and pressures is aiding the  improvements  in  energy efficiency in thermal power stations worldwide. This technology offers much higher  efficiencies of 40-42% by raising the temperature and  pressure  of steam  in  the boiler, thereby obtaining more energy output from  the  same coal input.

 

This shift to supercritical technology is a specific mitigation exercise of the Government as part of its climate change agenda.

 

With huge investments anticipated in the sectors of energy and environment, these partnerships will help in supporting the government's objectives  of efficient   technology  introductions and  establishment  of  indigenised production   capabilities.  These  sustainable  models  will  help   arrest environmental  degradation and  counter the negative  effects  of  climate change.
