LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

Financial performance

 

During the year, the gross turnover of the Company increased by 18.85% from Rs.136764.700 Millions to Rs.162538.800 Millions. The increase in turnover by 18.85% was primarily due to the increase in the average Copper LME prices from US$ 6,112 / MT to US$ 8,138 / MT.

 

TC / RC (Treatment Charges and Refining Charges) realisation in the financial year 2011 was 11.90 USC / lb, as compared to the 13.54 USC / lb in the previous year due to suppressed spot TC / RCs market. The earnings before interest, tax depreciation and amortization for the same period increased by 40.92% from Rs.16352.200 Millions to Rs.23043.900 Millions and the Net Profit increased by 70.74% from Rs.8315.000 Millions to Rs.14197.100 Millions in the current year.

 

Operational Performance

 

The year was very challenging due to lower TC / RC and higher input costs, thereby reducing the product margin. Sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid realisation was higher as compared to the previous year in line, with the increasing sulphur prices. Production was also affected due to planned bi-annual maintenance shutdown and also due to temporary stoppage of the Tuticorin copper smelter as per the Honourable Madras High Court order, dated 28 September 2010 for closure of Tuticorin copper unit.

 

During the year, the Company consolidated its leadership position in domestic copper with record sales of 2,06,653 MT. Production of cathodes was 3,03,991 MT in the financial year 2011, lower by 9% year on year reflecting both the impact of the planned maintenance undertaken, the effect of lower copper grades in concentrate on production and temporary stoppage following the High Court order in end September 2010. On the Special Leave Petition (SLP) filed by the Company, Honourable Supreme Court of India stayed the operation of the order of Madras High Court directing closure of Copper Smelter at Tuticorin. The unit is currently operational at it's full capacity. The Company also exported 96,674 MT of copper, including exports of 31,377 MT of copper rods.

 

Projects

 

Copper Smelter - Four Lakh Tonnes Per Annum (4 LTPA) and 2 x 80 - 160 MW Captive Power Plant The construction of the Captive Power Plant at Tuticorin is in progress and the first unit is now scheduled for commissioning in Q4 of the financial year 2011-12. While the Ministry of Environment & Forest (MoEF) clearance is in place for the 4 LTPA, the Copper Smelter Expansion Project at Tuticorin is being rescheduled, awaiting the consent from the State Pollution Control Board.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

General Economic Outlook

 

Global economic growth exceeded their expectation in the financial year 2010-11, although the global economy remained volatile. Commodity prices declined at the start of the year but recovered in the second half as European Sovereign debt concerns receded and developed economies started to stabilise. Demand from Asian Economies remained robust and was key driver of growth.

 

The strong growth story in India with consumption of basic commodities increasing throughout the year. From Subjects perspective this meant their sustained investment in the down-turn of 2008-09, reaped rewards. Against the backdrop of this favourable increase in demand and strong prices, they delivered record production and a very strong set of results across their business as they focused on delivering operational excellence and sustained volume growth.

 

The strong growth story in India with consumption of basic commodities increasing throughout the year. From Subjects perspective this meant their sustained investment in the down-turn of 2008-09, reaped rewards. Against the backdrop of this favourable increase in demand and strong prices, they delivered record production and a very strong set of results across their business as they focused on delivering operational excellence and sustained volume growth. Similar to last year, overall Indian copper demand grew by 4% in the financial year 2010-11. The demand of refined copper has been average in the second half of 2010-11, on account of rising LME and increasing gap between primary and secondary copper. Compared to the financial year 2009-10, in the domestic market, Subject recorded a 9% rise in sales of copper cathodes. There has been an increase in the consumption of refined copper to the extent of 5% in the transformer segment. SIIL enjoyed nearly 50% share across all the major segments–winding wire, transformers & cable segments during the financial year 2010-11. Growth in these major segments is well supported by the fact of increasing investments in the power sector in India. 32,512 MW of power capacity has been already added under the eleventh five year plan'. Yet, over the span of the year, the Indian economy posted a remarkable recovery, not only in terms of overall growth figures but, more importantly, in terms of certain fundamentals, which justify optimism for the Indian economy in the medium to long term. The Company also feels that the worst is over and is fully geared to take advantage of the improved economic indicators.

 

SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

 

The Company had 36 subsidiary companies as on 31 March 2011. The shareholders may refer to the statement under Section 212 of the Companies Act, 1956 and information on the financial statements of subsidiaries appended to the above Statement under Section 212 of the Companies Act, 1956 in this Annual Report for further information on these subsidiaries.

dated 07 December 2006.

 

Commercial Energy Business

 

The Subject Group has set up and operating captive power plants since 1997. Subject is currently developing a commercial power generation business in India that leverages its experience in setting up and operating captive power plants that support its primary businesses. As at March 31, 2011, the total surplus power generation capacity of its thermal power plants and wind power plants was 1,041 MW of which approximately 870 MW was from coalbased thermal captive power plants. Their wholly-owned subsidiary Subject Energy is setting up a 2,400 MW thermal coal-based power facility (comprising four units of 600 MW each) in Jharsuguda in the State of Orissa. The 2400 MW Independent Power Plant Jharsuguda, Orissa at a cost of Rs.84840.000 Millions is under progress and is expected to complete by end of FY 2012. First unit of 600 MW has been capitalized in March, 2011. The Company’s commercial power generation business also includes the wind power plants. The establishment of additional wind power plants of 150 MW was announced by HZL, of which 48 MW have already been commissioned during the year taking the wind generation capacity to 171 MW as on 31 March 2011. The power generated from these wind power plants is proposed to be sold to state electricity boards in India. This project is anticipated to be funded through internal resources and would provide tax incentives under the Income Tax Act.

 

Ports and Infrastructure Business

 

The Company was the successful bidder for mechanisation of the coal handling facilities at the outer harbour of

Vishakapatnam port on the east coast of India, which is based on the Public Private Partnership (PPP) model. The Company has a seventy four percent equity interest in VIZAG General Cargo Berth Pvt Limited (VGCB), a special purpose vehicle formed as a joint venture between the Company and Leighton Contractors India (Private)

Limited. The initial capacity of the upgraded berth will be 10.2 million tonnes per annum with flexibility to upgrade to 12.5 million tonnes per annum. VGCB entered into a concessionaire agreement on October 08, 2010 with Vishakapatnam Port Trust, for mechanisation the coal handling facilities and upgrade the general cargo berth on a build-operate-transfer basis for 30 years commencing on the date of award of concession. Vishakapatnam Port Trust will receive a share of the revenue earned from the berth. The expected costs for the project is Rs.6750.000 Millions (US$ 150 million) and construction has commenced with completion of the berth expected by mid 2012.

 

Overview

 

Global economy growth exceeded most expectations in the financial year although the global economy remained volatile. Commodity prices declined at the start of the year but recovered in the second half as European sovereign debt concerns receded and developed economies started to stabilise. Demand from Asian economies remained robust and was the key driver of growth. Growth story in India continues to remain strong with increased consumption demand of commodities. They remain focused on delivering operational excellence and sustained volume growth. On the backdrop of this favourable increased demand and strong prices they delivered record productions and a very strong set of results across their businesses.

 

During the year 2010-11, they completed the acquisition of Zinc assets of Anglo- American Plc. (Anglo Zinc) comprising its Skorpion mines in Namibia, Lisheen mines in Ireland and 74% owned Black Mountain mines in South Africa, which includes the Black Mountain mine and the Gamsberg project. Subject is the world’s largest integrated zinc-lead producer and has significant operating expertise with zinc. The acquired zinc assets is an excellent operational and strategic fit with their existing business and is expected to create significant long term value.

 

During the year all their businesses delivered volume growth, with significant increase in zinc and commercial power production. Their ongoing cost reduction measures have helped to contain the impact of higher input prices while higher volumes have also benefited unit operating costs. Stronger commodity prices for copper, aluminium

and zinc have also contributed to the increase in PBDIT during the year.

 

They have made excellent progress during the year in executing their project led organic growth programme. Their focus on continued asset optimisation and reduction of controllable costs remains key to delivery excellent results and long term value.

 

Performance – Copper

 

Market Overview

 

Global refined copper production in 2010 was reported as 19.1 million tonnes, an increase of about 4%, over the 2009 figure of 18.4 million tonnes. Global refined consumption exceeded supply by about 2,50,000 tonnes. Global mine production growth slowed to 0.8% in 2010, hampered by falling copper grades and labour disputes. Global copper consumption is estimated to increase by about 5% during 2011. Similar to last year, overall Indian copper consumption grew by 4% in the financial year 2011, constrained by increased imports of finished electrical machinery. They sold 68% of production in their local market and the remaining 32% was exported to China, South East Asia and the Middle East.

 

Growth in the power sector in India, and increased spending on infrastructure including housing, continued to drive the growth of copper consumption. Over the medium to long term it is expected to grow at about 8-9% per annum.

 

Production Performance

 

Production of cathodes at their Copper— India business was 304 kt in the financial year 2011, lower by 9% year on year, reflecting the impact of bi-annual shutdown of smelter undertaken and temporary shutdown following the Hon’ble Madras High Court order in end of September 2010. The Company’s Special Leave Petition (SLP) challenging the High Court order is being heard by the Hon’ble Supreme Court, and the unit is currently operational at its full capacity. During the year they also stabilised the precious metal refinery and rod plant at Fujairah. Mined metal production at their Australian mines was 4.2% lower at 23 kt in the financial year 2010-11.

 

Financial Performance

 

PBDIT for the financial year 2010-11 was Rs.10430.000 Millions, 40% higher than the PBDIT of Rs.7440.000 Millions for the financial year 2009-10. This was primarily due to higher LME prices and lower unit costs at Copper India and with the improved byproduct realisation.

 

Outlook

 

The global market is expected to grow at around 5% in current year with higher demand from developing countries to support the infrastructure growth. They expect stable operating performance at their smelter in India and their mines in Australia.

 

Performance - Zinc and Lead

 

Market Overview

 

Global zinc demand rebounded strongly in 2010, growing by 14.8% following a fall of 9.4% in 2009, at 11.6 MT. Urbanisation and increased spending on infrastructure in developing countries have continued to be the key driver for demand. While long-term global demand is expected to grow at 3-4% per annum, the near term demand growth in Asia (excluding China), their key export market, is poised to grow at 7%. India, where their major zinc facilities are located, continues to present a promising growth trajectory on the back of low per capita zinc consumption at 0.45 kg as compared to the global average zinc consumption of 1.8 kg per capita zinc. Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL), their Indian zinc-lead-silver business, has been successful in maintaining around 82% market share in the local zinc market, registering a 7% year on year growth.

 

Production Performance

 

Zinc India Operations:

 

Improved operational performance and ramp up of enhanced capacity at their mines contributed to an increase in mined metal production of zinc and lead in the financial year 2010-11, up 9.0% to 840 kt. The new mill at the mine achieved 84% capacity utilisation in March 2011. Refined zinc production also rose substantially to 712 kt, an increase of 23.2%, primarily due to additional volumes from the newly commissioned zinc smelter at Dariba. Lead production was 57 kt, a decrease of 7 kt over the previous year. Higher silver content in the Ore was the key factor behind the record silver production of 4.76 million ounces in the financial year 2010-11, 6.7% higher than the 4.46 million ounces produced in the financial year 2009-10.

 

Financial Performance

 

Increased production volumes, higher prices and by-product credit contributed to a strong increase in PBDIT for the financial year 2010-11, up 18% to Rs.55560.000 Millions, compared with the financial year 2009-10. This increase was partially off-set by increased net operating costs and royalties. The positive impact of higher volumes, rupee appreciation against US dollar and stable operating cost, contributed significantly to company’s operating margins.

 

Outlook

 

Zinc India continues to be on a volume growth path having recently reached its targeted mining capacity, equivalent to 1 MT of refined metal, and the ramp-up of the Sindesar Khurd mine is expected to increase silver content in concentrate. Commissioning of the lead smelter at Dariba will help conversion of lead concentrate to lead metal. The outlook for demand remains positive in their target markets and globally and their new acquisition, Zinc International, is expected to deliver steady performance.

 

Performance – Aluminium

 

Market Overview

 

The global aluminium industry recorded a 12.8% growth in production and 16.7% growth in consumption during the year after a turbulent period. Globally the industry is facing the challenge of rise in costs and other input costs. This is also re􀃀 ected in the increase in aluminium LME prices. Their aluminium facilities are located in India in the state of Orissa and Chattisgarh where there are abundant bauxite and coal deposits. This underscores India’s unique advantage of being rich in natural resources required to produce aluminium at a competitive cost. Subject emerged as the largest producer of aluminium in India and, within a short period, acquired industry leading market share of 39% (including VAL production) in the local Indian market. The Indian aluminium market is dominated by growing demand from the power sector. Over time, the relative share of aluminium applications in other segments is expected to pick up with rapid urbanisation and construction sector growth. Subject’s plants had focused on value added products like wire rods, rolled product and billets to capitalise on market growth and optimise returns.

 

Financial Performance

 

PBDIT for the financial year 2010-11 was Rs.6160.000 Millions, 3% higher than the financial year 2009-10. This improved performance was primarily driven by LME prices, partially off-set by higher carbon and coal costs, which were further increased by around 30% by Coal India in March 2011 and a new green tax on coal.

 

Outlook

 

They expect to increase volumes at their alumina refinery in Lanjigarh and improve operating performance at the new Jharsuguda smelter post stabilisation. They will continue to focus on value added products to optimise returns.

 

Performance – Energy

 

Operational Performance

 

During the financial year 2011, they sold 2,035 million units of power, compared with 1,416 million units in the previous year. This growth in volume was mainly on account of surplus power sales from 270 MW power plant at BALCO and commissioning of first unit of 600 MW commencing power generation at Jharsuguda, SEL.

 

Financial Performance

 

Revenue (net of inter-segment transfers) for the financial year 2011 was Rs.7280.000 Millions, compared with Rs.6570.000 Millions in the previous year and PBDIT for the FY 2010-11 was Rs.3350.000 Millions as against Rs.4180.000 Millions in the previous year. PBDIT was lower primarily due to higher operating costs, primarily coal and lower sales prices.

 

Overall Business Outlook

 

The medium and long term outlook for the resource sector remains positive. They have a strong growth pipeline and all their expansion projects are on track to deliver industry leading organic growth. They remain confident that they are on track to deliver superior results going forward.
