operating results and business (As on 31.03.2010)

 

For the year ended 31st March 2010, the Company earned total net income of Rs. 3184.760 millions (Gross income of Rs.3422.830 Millions) as compared to the previous year Rs.2730.340 millions (Gross Income of Rs.3008.570 Millions).

 

The EBITDA of the Company increased to Rs.296.470 Millions from Rs.157.910 Millions and net profit of the Company increased significantly to Rs.163.130 millions from the previous year Rs.64.520 millions.

 

During the financial year the production of CRGO Cores/Laminations increased in quantity terms by 36.72% from 14483.200 MT (previous year) to 19801.090 MT. The utilization of raw material has improved marginally from 93.98% to 94.10% (i.e. for every 1 MT of input of CRGO in FY 2009-10 the output was 0.941 MT of Finished goods and in FY 2008-09 the output was 0.939 MT of finished goods.

'Future bright for transformer lamination industry'

November, 2007

 

A leading player in transformer core manufacture, KRYFS Power Components Limited foresees huge demand for transformer lamination in the next five years. In an interview with K Subash, the company's Managing Director Saif Qureishi says though the outlook for the lamination industry is bright, he expects some hiccups along the way, but will make the journey more enjoyable and challenging for him. He aims to retain his leading position in the transformer lamination industry, and also add a few more higher value-added products in the near future. Excerpts:

 

You claim to have two modern plants for manufacturing transformer core. Are you in an advantageous position than others in this field? If yes then how?

 

It has been an interesting journey from when we started KRYFS Laminations (Private) Limited in December 1992, producing 10 MT per month. The major player in this industry then was Guest Keen Williams (GKW), and there were also many other players in the field who were mainly from the unorganised sector. By the end of this year, we shall have a capacity to produce 24,000 MT per annum, which is a huge leap forward. Maximum production will be achieved with imported CNC Georg (German) cut to length lines. Today, we are the only manufacturer of transformer core in the country to have 4 CNC Georg cut to length lines, 1 Georg slitting machine and 2 SDRI imported slitting machines. In addition, in December 2007, we will have a Brock-haus Magnetic steel testing laboratory at our works. Georg, Germany, is the world leader in transformer lamination CNC lines and Brockhaus, Germany, is the world leader in magnetic material testing technology. Obviously, having the best equipment in the world coupled with an enabling working culture ensures better processes and therefore better products. CRGO is a very sensitive steel and is also called the "glass steel". If the material is handled too often, the losses of the material increase and therefore it was a con-scious decision to go in for automation.

 

Being a company into the manufacture of CRGO strips what are the grades of CRGO you use?

 

We use all grades of CRGO from almost all suppliers in the world. We use the conventional grades of material like M3, M4, M5 and M6, and also use all Hi-B Domain refined grades of POSCO, TKES, Nippon  Steel and A.K.Steel. In fact, we are the only lamination manufacturer in India to receive material from Posco's India Processing Centre for conversion into Laminations. All other POSCO material available in India from any other source is through the non-POSCO-approved route or the unofficial route. It is an established fact that H1B grade is considered to be the best among the

 

CRGO grades. What have you to say about this?

 

Of course, Hi-B grade of material has the lowest core loss and since the development of CRGO in the mid-1900s all producing mills have made significant improvements in the manufacturing technology of CRGO, leading to materials with lower losses. Hi-B materials not only offer lower no-load losses to the designer but are also designed to operate at a much higher flux density, therefore reducing the overall size of the transformer. However, the Hi-B material availability and pricing are an issue. As it is a closely-held technology, only four countries and five mills in the world make this Hi-B Domain refined material namely A.K. Steel (USA), POSCO (Korea), Nippon and Kawasaki (Japan) and TKES (Germany). Therefore, the price is high and many transformer manufacturers and utilities are rethinking the cost benefit analysis of paying higher capital costs versus bearing the cost of higher no-load losses during the life of the transformer. In my view, where a transformer is going to be continuously loaded for 50 per cent or more times like in distribution transformers, Hi-B material may not be economical to use. However, for Power transformers in rural areas, which may not be loaded intermittently or less than 50 per cent of the time, Hi-B material may make economic sense.

 

Are the manufacturers still facing problems in sourcing Hl-B grade CRGO? Do you use this grade?

 

Yes, Hi-B CRGO is still in short supply in the world due to the high demand for this grade of material. We regularly use this material as most of our customers are the top power transformer manufacturers in India and abroad, and have a regular need for this grade of material.

 

You had been honoured with export awards twice. What are the products you export and which are your prospective markets?

 

KRYFS had been honoured with the EEPC Export Excellence award for outstanding export performance in 2004-'05 and the EEPC All-India Star Performer Award for export excellence in 2005-'06. We export our products to more than 30 countries all over the world including USA, China, Far East, Middle East and African countries.

 

Reliance India Power Fund had bought 15 per cent stake in your company. In what way did it help?

 

Well, the first thing it did was to boost our confidence. When a prestigious fund like the Reliance India Power Fund, which is held in equal measure by two of the most respected financial Powerhouses like Reliance Capital and Temasek, choose to invest in our company, it is a vote of confidence in your operations and your company's ability to compete in the market place. The investment in KRYFS was also one of the fastest investments made by the Reliance India Power fund in the sense that from the first meeting to the signing of the agreement, including the due diligence, took just 90 days.

 

Second, it has given us the capital to grow our business aggressively and also modernise  our  business by installing the latest machinery. Third, it has also made us a more responsible corporate citizen by bringing in better systems and transparency in our operations.

 

With the government setting a target of 78,500 MW capacity addition in the Eleventh Five-Year Plan how do you foresee the prospects for your business?

 

Let us put it this way - If the Indian economy has to grow at around 8 to 9 per cent per annum, the Power sector has to grow at around 13 to 15 per cent (to make up for the existing deficit plus new demand). If the Power sector has to grow at this rate, transformers have to be installed at a rate, which are higher than the rate of installation of generation capacity. As a thumb rule, 1 MW of generation capacity will require an addition of 7 MVA of transformers in the system. If transformers have to be manufactured, core has to be produced as that is the heart of the transformer. 1 MVA of transformer typically requires 1 MT of CRGO transformer lamination. Therefore, for a 78,500 MW addition in the generation capacity in the 11th Five-Year Plan, the new transformer requirement will be of the order of 549,500 MVA, and the requirement over a five-year period for transformer laminations will be around 550,000 MT. This is in addition to the replacement demand of existing transformers. So the future does look bright, however, we expect some hiccups along the way too, but that should only make the journey more enjoyable and challenging.

 

What are your future plans for the company?

 

We plan to get into related products in the Power sector and grow our company organically and inorganically. We hope to retain our leading position in the transformer lamination industry and also add a couple of higher value-added products by forward integration in the near future.
