MANAGEMENT AND DISCUSSION ANALYSIS

 

Sugar Industry:

 

The Sugar Industry after a year of deficit in sugar production is heading for a year of plenty in 2010-2011 season. Already sugar prices since March have slided by almost Rs.700/- a quintal and are likely to fall further.

 

The industry supplies 20% of its production to Government for Public distribution through fair price shops, as Levy Sugar at a fixed price of Rs.1366/- which is much lower to the cost of sugar cane (Rs. 1900/-per tonne)

 

The Government has unfortunately not revised the Levy sugar price for the last three years. The industry is losing heavily on the Levy Sugar coupled with the steep fall in Free Sale Sugar, the future does not augur well for the industry. The Government must step in and play a proactive role to help this agro industry, which is supporting 50

 million sugarcane farmers.

 

In the long run the Government should decontrol the Sugar industry which is the only controlled industry in India to day.

 

WS SUGARS, CHAGALLU

 

The Company is one of the most efficient in A.P in size, crushing and cost of production is highly competitive. In the present globalised context the size of the factory is the most important. Besides it has sizable co-gen facility and distillation facilities. Year after year, The Company is crushing higher quantity of sugarcane compared to other factories in A.P. This year also we propose to crush 10 lakh tons. The current year could be promising if the Government India adopts industry friendly policies.

 

NEW SUGAR UNIT AT POTHAVARAM

 

The new sugar mill project at Pothavaram is complete in all respect but for some balancing equipment and other final face of start up. The Company is confident that it can commence operation in the ensuing sugar season for the year 2010-2011

 

II) The Prospects of the Distilleries at Chagallu and Jangareddygudem

 

The Company is selling Ethanol to the pharmaceutical producers at remunerative Prices.

 

The Company can opt for the production of Extra Neutral Alcohol or Ethanol or Absolute Alcohol based on the prices as per the market demand and get maximum benefit as all the products can be manufactured in the distilleries.

 

b.  Co-Generation

 

The Co-generation project has worked continuously and successfully during the season and generated 23916 MW of power. The Company took a strategic decision to modify the boiler to use coal as alternative fuel at a cost of Rs. 60 Millions at Chagallu. This would enable the company to process imported raw sugar in case of shortage of sugar cane. Moreover the power plant can feed power to the grid throughout the year increasing the turnover.

 

c.  Electro Metallurgical Division

 

The lease in respect of the Ferromanganese plant has expired in January 2007. The Ferromanganese / Ferrochrome products market has considerably picked up and the price of the final products are good. Hence, the company is actively considering the revival of the Ferromanganese / Ferrochrome unit in due course

 

 d.  Distillery Division at Rayagada

 

The operations in the IMFL bottling unit during the year was satisfactory. The demand for the products are on the rise. The company is taking steps to increase the production substantially and to introducing one or more new varieties.
