EXPANSION
The Board of Directors of the Company has approved the acquisition of the Chloro Chemicals Division of Kanoria Chemicals and Industries Limited for a cash consideration of Rs.8300.000 Millions in its meeting held on 16th April 2011. This plant is a state of art facility located at Renukoot, Uttar Pradesh, manufacturing Chlor-Alkalis, Chlorine derivatives and water treatment chemicals. It is highly cost competitive, driven by strengths of the latest manufacturing technology, captive power plants with coal linkage and forward integration into value adding chlorine derivatives. The current annual capacity of caustic soda at the facility is 115,000 TPA. With this acquisition, the total caustic soda capacity of the Company will increase from 105,000 TPA to 220,000 TPA. This transaction takes the Company to a higher growth trajectory.
The transaction will be done on a slump sale basis and is subject to customary corporate and other approvals.
It is expected to be completed towards the end of May 2011. The financing of this transaction will be arranged from internal accruals and borrowings. The limit of borrowings proposed to be enhanced is upto Rs.12000.000 Millions, for which an Extra Ordinary General Meeting of Members of the Company has been called on 17th May 2011.
As informed in last Report about there proposed expansion, the capacity of there Aluminium Chloride Plant has been raised from 25 TPD to 43 TPD through additional reactors, based on the latest technology, with a capital investment of Rs.86.400 Millions.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS REPORT
·
INDUSTRY
AND DEVELOPMENT WITH SEGMENTWISE PERFORMANCE AND MARKET OUTLOOK
The Global Caustic Soda Industry has transformed since the financial crisis of 2008. The Caustic Soda industry benefited from rapid economic recovery in particular from China and India. A demand pull from the construction sector helped in demand generation for Chlor-Vinyl products, whereas recovery in Alumina, pulp and paper segments boosted demand for caustic.
The global consumption of Chlor-Alkali increased to 68 Million tons in 2010, an increase of almost 11% over 2009. The global capacity for caustic soda is around 85 million tons, out of this around 55% of the capacity is in Asia.
Chlor-Alkali production in India has increased by 6% to 2.45 million tons in 2010-11. Growth in India is linked to chlorine consumption growth which has been following the growth in Indian GDP. Consumption of Poly Vinyl Chlorine and Chlorinated (two major consuming sectors of chlorine) has witnessed double digit growth and is expected to perform well.
The major driver of caustic demand is Alumina segment wherein large capacities are coming up in the Eastern region. With the acquisition of Chloro Chemical division of Kanoria Chemicals at Renukoot, there Company is planning to utilize the excess captive power available by increasing the caustic capacity further by 145 TPD.
The acquisition of Chloro Chemicals Division of Kanoria Chemicals by there Company is a compelling strategic fit. Given the large expansion plans of Aditya Birla Group's aluminium business in the Eastern region, the deal serves as an excellent sourcing point. The business has potential for growth both in revenues and earnings. The acquisition offers significant potential and infrastructure to expand the business which will serve the increasing demand for caustic soda.

During the year, the average power generation was 28.16 MW with a Plant Load factor of 93.87%. The Net Turnover at Rs.2362.500 Millions as compared to Rs. 2218.600 Millions in the previous year reflects a rise of 6.49%. The Company had achieved various milestones including highest ever production of Aluminium Chloride at 26 TPD and highest ever production of Stable Bleaching Powder at 25 TPD. The Company’s good performance is due to the optimum utilization of plant capacity, optimization of process parameters and various cost reduction initiatives.
Interest cost has been lower at Rs.26.400 Millions as compared to Rs.35.700 Millions in the previous year due to scheduled repayment of term borrowings.

The Board of Directors of Aditya Birla Chemicals (India) Limited (“ABCIL”), a company of the Aditya Birla Group, today approved the acquisition of the Chloro Chemicals Division (“CCD”) of Kanoria Chemicals & Industries Limited (“KCIL”) for a cash consideration of Rs.8300.000 Millions. ABCIL is currently a chlor alkali producer with its plant located at Rehla in the State of Jharkhand. This transaction takes ABCIL to a higher growth trajectory.
CCD is a state-of-art-facility located at Renukoot, Uttar Pradesh, manufacturing chlor-alkalis, chlorine derivatives and water treatment chemicals. The current annual capacity of caustic soda at the facility is 115,000 tons per annum. CCD is highly cost competitive, driven by strengths of the latest manufacturing technology, captive power plants with coal linkage and forward integration into value adding chlorine derivatives. CCD’s revenues for the year ended 31 March 2010 stood at Rs.3030.000 Millions.
With this acquisition, the total caustic soda capacity of ABCIL will increase from 105,000 tpa to 220,000 tpa.
Says Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla, Chairman of the Aditya Birla Group: “A compelling strategic fit, this acquisition further strengthens our Group’s standing in the chlor alkali / caustic soda sector. This acquisition solidifies the Group’s position as the country’s largest producer of chlor alkali. It is a critical input in the aluminium sector. Given our large expansion plans for our aluminium business, this serves as an excellent sourcing point besides, of course, bolstering our capacity to service our customers. The business has potential for both growth in revenues and earnings. I warmly welcome the strong team that comes along with this acquisition.”
Avers Mr. Lalit Naik, Business Head for Chemicals, Aditya Birla Group: “The unit offers significant potential and infrastructure to expand the business, which will serve the increasing need for caustic soda, both within our Group and for external market. In addition, we also expect significant operational synergies on account of logistics and other cost savings.”
Caustic soda is one of the essential inputs for the manufacture of alumina and is also used widely in various other Industries. CCD’s manufacturing facility is located in Renukoot, in the State of Uttar Pradesh. Over and above the existing demand in alumina in that region, several new alumina manufacturing facilities are also coming up in the eastern part of India, which provides significant growth opportunities. Besides, there is growing demand for the chlorine derivatives. ABCIL will finance the transaction from internal accruals and borrowings.
The transaction will be done on a slump sale basis and is subject to customary corporate and other approvals, and is expected to be completed towards the end of May 2011.
