INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

We are living in a world where volatility and uncertainty have become the New Normal. We saw a change of government in countries like Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Vietnam. Once powerful countries in Europe are now fighting for bankruptcy. We have taken growth in the developing part of the world for granted but economic growth in China and India has begun to slow. Companies that were synonymous with their product categories just a few years ago are now no longer in existence. Kodak, the inventor of the digital camera had to wind up its operations, HMV, the British entertainment retailing company and Borders, once the second largest bookstore have shut down due to their inability to evolve their business models with the changing time. Readers’ Digest, Thomson Register are no more !

 

There is another megatrend happening. The World order is changing as economic power shifts from West to East. According to McKinsey study, it took Britain more than 100 years to double its economic output per person during its industrial revolution and the US later took more than 50 years to do the same. More than a century later, China and India have doubled their GDP per capital in 12 and 18 years respectively. By 2020, emerging Asia will become the world’s largest consuming block, overtaking North America.

 

The years after the outbreak of the global financial crisis, the world economy continues to remain fragile. The Indian economy demonstrated remarkable resilience in the initial years of the contagion but finally lost ground last year. GDP growth slowed down. Currency has been weakening. There is a marked deceleration in agriculture, industry and services. Dampening sentiment led to a cut-back in investment as well as private consumption expenditure.  Inflation remained at high levels fuelled by the pressure from the food and fuel sectors. The large fiscal and current account deficit s continued to cause grave concern. It is imperative that India regains its growth trajectory of 8-9 % sooner than later. This is crucially important given the need to create gainful livelihood opportunities for the millions living in poverty as also the large contingent of young people joining the job market every year.

CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

The company is engaged in manufacturing Sponge Iron, Ferro Alloys, MS and SS Angle and power and the same are sold in the domestic market. Because of the Captive power generation, company has advantage of low power cost per unit of manufacturing. Company is also generating 40 MW Power from waste Heat recovery Boiler and Fluidized Bed Combustion boiler with economic price. Power generated is used for captive consumption and surplus power is sold resulting profit.

 

 

OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW

 

During the year Net Turnover of the Company has been increased to ` 327.58 Crores as compared to previous year’s turnover which was ` 320.09 Crores. Company’s profit after tax (PAT) has also increased marginally. However, decline in net profit margin is mainly attributed to factors like higher basic raw materials prices like Coal and Iron ore, inflationary conditions, cost burdens, shortage of working capital and lower margin etc..

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS

 

India has remained world’s largest producer of sponge iron since 2002. In the last four years the Indian Sponge Iron industry grew at an annual rate of 9.8%.

 

The performance of the domestic Ferro Alloy sector has been in line with the Indian and global steel industry. Production has been increased at annual average rate of 9.5% during the last four years.

 

Sponge Iron (DRI) is now recognized as a high purity, top quality charge material throughout the world. In comparison with scarp, the use of DRI/HBI is now known to offer many benefits like consistency in composition, low trace elements due to its porous nature and environment – friendliness. Power generation through waste gases at very low cost is one of the biggest advantages the sponge iron industry is enjoying with. This provides power at the low cost per unit which helps the unit to generate more profit than the sale of sponge iron in real sense.

 

The Company operates two kilns with an installed capacity of 1,80,000 tonnes per annum to produce sponge iron. While manufacturing sponge iron, the significant amount of heat energy generated from waste gases of Kilns is recovered in waste heat recovery boilers to generate steam, which then passes through the steam turbine generator for producing power. Company is also operating two power plants, based on both coal and waste heat recovery from kilns with a combined generation capacity of 40 MW. The Power generated is being consumed both captively as well as used for wheeling to other users by means of State Grid. This revenue also contributed to bottom line.

 

The Company also has 61890 MTPA installed capacity for Ferro Alloys Production. The Company is chiefly manufacturing Ferro Chrome, Ferro Manganese, Ferro Silico manganese etc. which have its application in the production of steel as deoxidants and used as alloying agents to impart particular physical properties to finished steel products. Depending upon the process of steel making and the type of steel being made, the requirement of different Ferro Alloys varies within a wide range. The demand/consumption for Ferro-alloys has a direct correlation with the growth in the Steel Industry and hence Steel Industry mainly drives the growth of Ferro Alloys Industry.

 

In addition to above, the Company has 25000 MTPA capacity of Rolling Mill where presently M S Angle, S.S Angle, Round Bar etc are being manufactured.

 

The company also has a 40 MW Coal based Captive Power Plant.

 

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

Sponge Iron and Steel Making Industries goes hand in hand. The future of Sponge Iron Industry and its prospects are dependent on Steel demand coupled with the availability of its substitute i.e. steel scrap in the market. While considering that there is enormous scope for increasing steel consumption in almost all sectors in India, it may be said that the prospects for the Sponge Iron Industries are bright.

 

On the other hand, Ferro-Alloys Industry envisages power intensive production. In the absence of competitively available electrical power, the domestic industry may face stiff competition from imports leading to possible closure or underutilization of the capacity in the industry. To support power intensive production and steady power supplies to the Industry at a stable price, Company has its own 40 MW power plant and is focusing on its captive power generation for cheaper availability of electricity.

 

During 2011-12, Supreme Court had banned iron ore mining in Karnataka due to environmental worries and allegations of illegal mining. However, NMDC was still allowed to mine within the region and since the Company is having its long term procurement tie-ups with NMDC, the availability of basic raw material viz. Iron Ore would not be a problem in the near future.

 

Company also tends to procure its other basic raw materials like Chrome Ore, Manganese Ore, Coke etc. from renowned Public Sector Undertakings like MOIL, OMCL etc and as such the consistency in availability raw materials is ensured for them also. In Union Budget 2012-13, government has provided certain fiscal benefits to boost the Industry such as reduction of customs duty on imported plant and machinery from 7.5% to 2.5%; reduction of Custom Duty on goods required for Coal Mining Projects to Nil and reduction of custom duty on thermal Coal to Nil from 5%. These benefits may be seen further to reduce the prices of raw materials like

Coal and may help the Industry in the long run.

Notes:

 


The above results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by Board of Directors in its meeting held on 14th August, 2013.

 

Previous period frigures have been regrouped and/ or rearranges wherever necessary to make their classification comparable with the current period.

 

The Company is manufacturing Ferro Alloys and Sponge Iron, which is basically used in Iron and Steel industry. Further power generated in the company in its power plant is used for captive as well as trading purpose. In view of this, the company has to consider" Iron and Steel" and "Power" as Primary Reportable business segment, as per Accounting Standard -17, Segment Reporting issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. However, due to substantial competition, risk, on-going position of Company and largely in the interest of the Company as well as interest of the stake holders involved, the management has not made disclosure of Primary Reportable segment as per Accounting Standard -17.
