OPERATIONS

 

Iron Ore Business

 

2012-13 was a year of challenges for The Company – challenges unprecedented in its history. In September / October 2012, the iron ore mining operations in Goa were brought to a complete halt by an abrupt imposition of ban on mineral extraction and transportation by the State Government and subsequently by the Supreme Court. The Company’s entire iron ore mining business is currently at a standstill in the State of Goa.

 

The Honourable Supreme Court of India has given clearance for resumption of mining operations for A and B category mines in Karnataka subject to statutory clearances, vide its order dated April 18, 2013. Sesa’s Karnataka mine falls under B category, and the Company is in the process of securing necessary statutory clearances to resume mining shortly.

 

The Ministry of Mines, Government of India, had constituted the Shah Commission for inquiry into aspects of compliances for iron ore mining across India in FY2011. Post the submission of Shah Commission report, in September 2012, the State Government of Goa, temporarily suspended the mining and transportation of iron ore across the state of Goa. This was followed by an Order from Ministry of Environment and Forest (MoEF) putting into abeyance the Environmental Clearances for iron ore mines in Goa. Subsequently, a review by a High Powered committee appointed by the State government was also ordered. In October 2012, the Honourable Supreme Court suspended mining and transportation of Iron ore across the State of Goa and ordered a review by the Centrally Empowered Committee (CEC). In view of the foregoing, operations at the Company’s mines in Goa have been remained suspended. The Company has filed an application before the Supreme Court seeking modification or vacation of the aforesaid order. The hearing in the Court is yet to commence effectively.

 

Despite the adverse circumstances during the year, the Company looks ahead to an early resolution of these challenges. We continue to work on furthering our internal systemic robustness and strengthening processes to handle such challenges. In 2012, Sesa became the 1st Indian mining company to implement automation using RFID technology. The Implementation covers all Sesa Group companies. The RFID system identifies the vehicle using RFID tags across the Sesa operations in Goa and Karnataka and links forest passes and Department of Mines and Geology permits (in Karnataka) with truck information thereby providing assurance and control. Sesa received Supply Chain Technology Advancement award at the 2nd Asia Manufacturing Supply Chain Summit (AMCSCS) for this implementation.

 

Spot prices witnessed a significant drop from August due to drop in demand reaching a low of $83 per tonne (63% Fe FOB India) in early September from about ~$130 per tonne at the start of the year. With the improved sentiment in China, iron ore spot prices experienced a sharp recovery, December onwards, reaching above $140 per tonne in February 2013, before showing slight softening in March to reach $125 per tonne on March 31, 2013. The average spot iron ore price for 2012-13 was about ~20% lower at US$ 120 per tonne (63% grade FOB price) level, compared to about ~$150 per tonne in 2011-12.

 

Exploration

 

Exploration at the Liberian project combined with significant new discoveries in India has resulted in the addition of 1.03 billion tonnes of Ore Reserves and Mineral Resources (R and R) in 2012-13. This includes 966 mt of JORC / CRIRSCO certified R and R in Liberia and 59 mt net R and R addition in India.

 

Now operating in India and Liberia, Sesa has applied new thinking to old deposits. Driven by the consistent focus on resource addition, the total R and R in Goa and Karnataka has increased 3.6 times (net of depletion) over the last 5 years. During 2012-13, over 95,000 metres were drilled, with about 69,000 m in Liberia and about 26,500 m in India. The R and R as on March 31, 2013 now stands at 433 mt in India and 966 mt in Liberia (WCL), totalling to 1,399 mt for Sesa group. These resources in Liberia pertain to only a portion of the exploration license area. With a small part of the strike length explored as on date, there is a potential for significant upside with focused drilling in coming years.

 

Pig Iron and Met Coke Business

 

The Value Addition Business achieved a new landmark in August 2012 with the commissioning of the new 450 m 3 blast furnace enhancing the pig iron production from 0.25 to 0.625 mtpa, making us the largest low phosphorous pig iron facility in India. A 0.28 mtpa metallurgical coke plant, a 0.8 mtpa sinter plant and a 30 MW power plant have also been commissioned as part of the expansion project. The newly commissioned sintering facility would enable the Pig Iron Division (PID) to partially meet its iron ore requirement with sintered iron ore fines, resulting in significant cost savings and increasing efficiencies.

 

Driven by the commissioning of new capacities, pig iron production increased by 24% from 248,729 tonnes in 2011-12 to 307,775 tonnes in 2012-13.

 

The pig iron sales volume increased by 10% from 250,571 tonnes in 2011-12 to 275,119 tonnes in 2012-13, while gross sales revenue grew by 7.4% to Rs.7840.000 Millions in 2012-13 from Rs. 7300.000 Millions in 2011-12. Profits before interest, tax, dividends and other nonrecurring or non-allocable incomes for the Pig iron business decreased from Rs.450.000 Millions in 2011-12 to Rs. (93.000) Millions in 2012-13.

 

The metallurgical coke production increased by 29% to 331 kt in 2012-13 due to new capacities commissioned in Q2 FY2013. Sales volume of metallurgical (met) coke increased by 20% to 301,889 tonnes in 2012-13 from 251,264 tonnes in 2011-12. External sales revenue increased by 1.4% to Rs.5580.000 Millions in 2012-13 from Rs.5500.000 Millions in 2011-12.

 

Sesa had applied for validation of its European patent in Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom. During the year, The International Organisation for Patent and Trademark Service confirmed the validity of the patent overruling some objections raised by a German Company.

 

Outlook

 

The iron ore mining industry continues to face increasing challenges with social licensing as a result of the competition for resources, and high prices increasing social pressure on the extractive industries to share more and more benefits with the society.

 

As far as the overall iron ore market is concerned, despite temporary glitches, the theme of the emerging market super cycle remains unchanged, on the demand front. Supply forecasts continue to remain complex on account of supply disruptions due to regulatory concerns as in India, weather disruptions as in Australian ports, continued structural challenges from cost inflations, grade depletion and large uncertainty of project. However, in the longer term, prices are forecast to be under pressure as and when supply picks up with several new investments coming on stream, albeit supported by the phasing out of high cost operations.

 

Despite all these challenges, the overall outlook for Sesa remains positive. Sesa’s low cost operations in Goa and Karnataka are well placed to sustain any cost or pricing pressures. The Supreme Court has already permitted a conditional resumption of operations in Karnataka and the Company is in the process of securing the statutory clearances for an early resumption of operations. The expansion projects at pig iron and metallurgical coke operations have been commissioned, with the sinter plant adding key strategic ability to utilise iron ore fines. With the maiden resource estimate at Liberia already announced, Sesa’s total reserves and resources exceed 1.4 billion tonnes with a significant upside expected from hitherto untouched exploration area in Liberia.

Consequent to the clearance for resumption of iron ore mining operations at Karnataka by the Honourable Supreme Court of India (the “Supreme Court”), the Company is in process of securing necessary clearances to resume mining shortly.

 

The operations at the iron ore mines in Goa continue to remain suspended during the quarter as a result of the suspension of mining operations imposed by the State Government and the Supreme Court. The matter for resumption of mining is now being heard by the Supreme Court.

SESA GOA, STERLITE INDUSTRIES MERGER BECOMES EFFECTIVE

17 AUGUST 2013

 

Within a week after receiving final approval from the Goa bench of Bombay High Court, Vedanta group firms, Sesa Goa and Sterlite Industries on Saturday announced that their merger scheme, together with several other group firms, has now become effective.

 

In a joint statement, both the companies said that merger of Sterlite and Malco into Sesa Goa has become effective pursuant to the scheme of amalgamation and arrangement amongst Sterlite, Malco, Sterlite Energy, Vedanta Aluminium and Sesa Goa and their shareholders and creditors.

 

Search: India Inc A, B, C

 

Accordingly, Malco's power plant has been transferred to Vedanta Aluminium, it further said, adding that August 28 has been fixed as the record date for allotting shares to the respective shareholders as per the merger scheme.

 

The merger, first announced on February 25, 2012, is aimed at creating a mega Indian natural resources giant, Sesa Sterlite, on the likes of BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto. It would also result in a Rs 1,000 crore annual saving for Vedanta through a reduction in debt-servicing cost as most of its debt gets transferred to the new entity.

 

"Yesterday, we filed the necessary documents to Registrar of Companies (related to merger scheme). With that, the merger has become effective and it means Sterlite Industries no longer exists," Sesa Goa's Managing Director P K Mukherjee said.

The decks for completing the merger were cleared on August 12, when the final regulatory clearance was received after a division bench of the Bombay High Court at Goa gave its nod for the same and rejected a review petition which challenged an earlier approval granted by a single bench.

 

All other regulatory clearances, approving the merger, were secured by the two Vedanta group firms last year itself.

 

As per the merger scheme, now Sesa Sterlite will be the holding company of all group firms of Vedanta other than Konkola Copper Mines (KCM) in Zambia. Vedanta will hold 58.3 per cent in Sesa Sterlite and 79.4 per cent stake in KCM.

 

On the record date (August 28), Sterlite shareholders will get three shares of Sesa Goa for every five
