OPERATIONS

 

The capacity utilization increased in all the plants as compared to previous year. Additional power generation capacity of 20 MW became operational in December 2010. Wire Rod Mill also became operational during the year. This has helped in achieving higher generation of power and production of steel. The operation at the coal

mines of the Company continues to be normal. Coal washery started operation during the current year. The operations at iron ore mines remained suspended due to law and order problems in the surrounding area.

 

A Core Asset Group has been formed to promote preventive maintenance practices which will improve availability of assets across operations. Health Safety and Environment and Fire Departments have performed consistently in terms achieving better than statutorily stipulated environmental norms.

 

PROJECTS

 

During the year, the Company spent Rs.766.400 millions on expansion and new projects.

 

WIRE ROD AND WIRE DRAWING MILL

 

The 0.180 million tones Wire Rod Mill at Siltara, Raipur, started commercial operations from 01.01.2011. Wire drawing facility commenced operation during the current year. This completes the integration of steel operations from mining to the finished steel for end user. This also gives the flexibility in deciding the product mix depending upon the market conditions.

 

COAL WASHERY

 

The 0.96 million tonne coal washery was commissioned in the current financial year. Washed coal will help in achieving higher production in the sponge iron plant of the Company. The middling and rejects generated in the

washery will be used for power generation at proposed pithead Thermal Power Plant.

 

PITHEAD THERMAL POWER PLANT

 

The Company has acquired sufficient land for the proposed thermal power project at Kolam, Raigarh near its captive coal mines. Water has already been allocated for the project. Public hearing has been successfully completed and now presentation at state level MoEF is awaited. TCE has been appointed as consultant for Design and Engineering activities for the project. Bids invited for the BTG package are being evaluated. The site work and release of orders for the projects will start after receipt of statutory clearances.

 

MINERAL RESOURCES

 

IRON ORE

 

The Company has received prospecting license for iron ore over an area of 150 hect. In Narangsur area of Chhattisgarh. Prospecting work is underway. In addition to this, Company has received grant order for prospecting licenses from Chhattisgarh Government for four areas.

 

MANGANESE ORE

 

The Company has acquired Manganese Ore mines in Goa and steps are being taken to operationalise the mines. The mining lease has been registered in the name of the Company. Applications for seeking various clearances have been made and the environmental clearance and forest clearance is under process. The Company has also received 3 Prospecting Licenses in Balaghat, District of Madhya Pradesh. The prospecting work is underway.

 

COAL MINES

 

The Company has got interest in a coal mine in a Joint Venture (JV) and also interest in coal mines in Indonesia

through a wholly owned subsidiary. These mines will ensure long-term sustainable and uninterrupted availability of fuel to the Company. The coal mine allotted in JV falls in the area classified as a NO GO AREA by the Ministry of Environment and Forest. A Group of Ministers is formed to resolve the issue. The work on the coal mine under Wholly Owned Subsidiary is progressing steadily. Forest clearance has been received. Land acquisition is going on.

 

IRON ORE SIZING AND SCREENING PLANT

 

As informed in the last report, the second phase of the Iron Ore Sizing and Screening plant of 6.00 LTPA have been commissioned successfully on 31.08.2010. As Iron Ore mines operation remained suspended due to poor law and order in the mining area, the plant could not be operated at its fullest capacity. 63010 MT Iron ore fines were processed out of 76862 MT iron ore fines shifted from the mines. During the year, 29206 MT was dispatched to plant after screening and washing. The product quality remained within the acceptable norms. However, to further improve the quality of the product, certain modifications are being carried out in the existing system. The modifications will be completed by the end of current financial year.

 

JOINT VENTURES

 

RAIPUR INFRASTRUCTURE COMPANY LIMITED

during F.Y. 2008-09.

 

The Company has also been awarded first prize, in the Best Open Plantation competition organized by Urla Industrial Association, in the category of Large Industries.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

 

The Company operates primarily in steel and ferro alloys as an integrated producer and has now focused on energy sector as potential growth area. Developments in the industry, during the year, are discussed hereunder.

 

STEEL

 

On the back of recovery in the developed countries global crude steel production registered an impressive growth of 15% with 38% in USA and 34% in Germany. After recording a negative growth in 2009, global crude steel production reached to new high of 1414 Mn tones in the year 2010 against 1229 Mn tones of 2009. China leads with 627 Mn tones registering growth of 9.3%. With production of 67 Mn tones, India ranked 5th recording growth of 6.4%, the lowest growth among top ten steel producing countries. The reasons for poor growth of the steel sector in India are raw material insecurity, dependence on imported coal, poor infrastructure affecting logistics, cumbersome and uncertain process of land acquisition and delay in environmental clearances. The exports and imports of long product segment in which the Company operates fell by 33.7% and 23.6% respectively.

 

Iron ore and coal prices registered sharp increase which could not be passed on fully to the consumer putting pressure on margins. Iron ore prices went up mainly on account of supply side constraints after strict enforcement

of mining laws and its politicization.

 

Coal India limited, the monopoly supplier of coal, also increased prices of steel grade coal by whopping 170%. This has made the coal linkage quite inconsequential. Over and above that excise duty of 5% has been imposed on coal in this budget. Faced with shortage of iron ore lumps, a number of iron ore pelletisation plants have come up in the country which will be using huge stock pile of iron ore fines created over the years. The leading Indian steel producers have announced mega expansion plans.

 

SPONGE IRON

 

Blast furnace route of steel making requires coking coal, which is available in a very limited quantity in the country. As against this sponge iron / direct reduction route uses non coking coal which is abundantly available in the country. Because of this, India continues to be the largest producer of coal based DRI in the world since 2003 contributing about one third of world production. During 2010-11 India produced 23.26 Mn tones of DRI, 17.07 Mn tones using coal and 6.19 Mn tones using natural gas. India registered growth of just 1.14 % in DRI production. Capacity utilization of sponge iron plants was low because of high ash content in indigenous coal which adversely affects operating condition of kilns.

 

Coal from captive coal mine backed by coal washery ensures uninterrupted supply of sponge iron grade coal to the Company. This also insulates against ever increasing prices of fuel. The middling generated from washing of coal shall be sold initially and will be utilized for generation of power at pit head. The Company has also put up 600,000 MT capacity pelletisation plants which will ensure uninterrupted supply of raw material for sponge iron plant with homogeneous size and consistent quality. These factors will help in efficient operation of sponge iron plant.

 

FERRO ALLOYS

 

Ferro alloys are used as additives in production of steel to impart resistance to corrosion, hardness, tensile, strength and resistance against abrasion in the steel. Therefore, ferro alloys industry’s fortunes are dependent on growth in steel industry. Mn ore reserves are concentrated mainly in China, South Africa, Australia, Brazil, Gabon and India. China and India are net importers of Mn Ore. Mines in South Africa and Australia are controlled by global mining majors who dictate the prices of Mn ore. Indian Ferro alloys industry is fragmented with many small and medium sized smelters. Now larger players are coming up with new capacities which will change the dynamics of this industry in the coming years.

 

GLOBAL MANGANESE ORE AND ALLOY PRODUCTION

 

China is the largest importer of Manganese Ore with import of 11 Mn tones of ore. High Carbon Ferro Mn with 4.4 Mn tones registered growth of 33%, Refined Ferro Mn with 1.5 Mn tones registered growth of 50% and High Carbon Silico Mn with 8.7 Mn tones registered growth of 18%. The average consumption of Manganese Alloy in Steel was about 10 Kg per tones.

 

The Mn production capacity in India is about 2.5 Mn tones which is adequate to support crude steel production of 120 Mn tones. Mn ore reluctant and power constitute about 90% of the cost making non integrated producers vulnerable to market vagaries. The Company has captive power plant and has secured mining concessions from the government which are in various stages of clearances / development.

 

POWER

 

India, with a capacity of 1,75,000 MW (12,160 MW being added in 2010-11) has the fifth largest electricity generation capacity in the world. Even though India has initiated various initiatives to increase power generation

capacity, the demand continues to be much higher than supply. Majority of generation, transmission and distribution capabilities rests with public utilities.

 

India meets major part of its domestic energy demand through thermal generation. Coal as a major source of Mn Alloy Production (Million mt) fuel for power generation dominates the utility industry but delay in development of new coal mines on account of environmental clearances and land related disputes has put extra pressure and increased dependence on costly imports.

 

Increased dependence on imported coal, price increases being affected by the public sector coal companies and

cost of pollution and emission control will have a significant bearing on the overall cost of generation going forward. More and more developers including the Indian coal companies are looking at overseas acquisition of coal mines to address some of these concerns on fuel.

 

The government introduced renewable energy purchase obligation (RPO) on all consumers of fossil fuel energy.

In the state of Chhattisgarh with effect from 4th March, 2011 such consumers have to generate or buy 5% of their consumption from renewable sources a part of which has to be compulsorily from solar. Any shortfall has to be met by buying Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) from power exchange. RECs are issued to renewable energy generators to compensate them for viability gap. This has increased cost of generation by about 15 paise per unit.

 

Outlook

 

Growth in steel and power demand has strong correlation with growth in GDP of nation. As the Indian economy is slated to exhibit robust growth in GDP, steel and power demand is also expected to grow in tandem. With possibility of large integrated green field steel and ferro alloys plants coming up in the near future non integrated

producers without raw material / fuel base are likely to face cost pressures.

 

The Company has got iron ore and coal mines to meet its full requirement of raw material for next 25 years. Mn

ore mines have also been allotted to the Company, which are at different stages of clearances / development. The Company has also taken up large green field projects in ferro alloys and hydro power through subsidiaries. These are under execution. The ferro alloys at vizag will start production by the end of current year which will give a quantum jump to the consolidated performance of the Company. M/s. Asia Minerals Limited. Hongkong, who acquired 5% stake in the Company will help in production of high end ferro alloys products and deeper penetration of Japanese market. Small hydro power projects of the Company will also be eligible for renewable energy certificates adding substantially to the profitability / meeting Company’s Renewable purchase obligation.

NOTES:-

1.       The above accounts were reviewed by the Audit Committee and considered and approved in the meeting of the Board of Directors held on 26.05.2012.

2.       Exchange differences on long term foreign currency loans, over and above adjustment to interest cost in terms of paragraph 4(e) of AS16 amounting to Rs.186.417 Millions have been added to the cost of assets as per Clause 46A of the AS11 (inserted vide notification date. 29.12.2011). This is depreciated over the balance life of the assets and accordingly depreciation of Rs.11.385 Millions has been charged to profit and loss account.

The exchange difference, on the same foreign currency loans, regarded as an adjustment to interest cost in terms of paragraph 4(e) of AS16 amounting to Rs.158.686 Millions have been included under finance costs in the statement of Profit and Loss. The effect of the same was not given in the quarter ended 31st December 2011.

3.       The other income for the quarter includes dividend from subsidiary Rs.266.550 Millions

4.       The figures for the corresponding previous periods have been restated / regrouped, wherever necessary, to make them comparable. The figures of last quarter are the balancing figures between audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures up to the third quarter of the current financial year.

5.       The Board of Directors have recommended, subject to approval of shareholders, a dividend of Rs. 3/- per fully paid up equity shares of Rs.10/- each, aggregating to Rs.124.997 Millions, including dividend distribution tax.

6.       The share transfer books shall remain close from 2nd July'2012 to 7th July'2012 (both days inclusive). The same may be taken as notice u/s. 154 of the Companies Act' 1956.

7.       The above results are also available on the Company's website - www.seml.co.in

8.       Ratios have been computed as under :-

 

                                 i.            DSCR = EBIDTA/(Interest +Scheduled Principal Payments)

                               ii.            ISCR = EBIDTA/Interest Expenses (Excluding Notional Interest) Interest excludes exchange differences to the extent regarded as adjustment to interest cost.

Headquartered in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, the company merged with Chhattisgarh Electricity Company Limited (CECL) in 2007 with a vision to becoming a leading energy and minerals company. 

 


Over the last three decades the company has continuously diversified its product portfolio to include many customized value added products.

Subject differentiates itself from its peers by not being just another steel company. It foresaw the importance and emergence of energy and minerals as two critical ingredients for developing economies and particularly for India. Synergy in Energy became the basis of all its future endeavors. Today, Subject is one of the very few companies to become completely self-sufficient in terms of its energy requirements and is well on its way to achieve self sufficiency in other mineral resources. The company has acquired iron ore, coal and manganese mines in India and is aggressively looking for mineral resources across the globe.
