GENERAL

 

The environment for international trade in fertilizers was not very conducive during the year 2011-12. There was substantial increase in the import prices of Potassic and Phosphatic Fertilisers to start with during the year. Then they had an abnormal and unprecedented volatility in the value of Indian rupee. The dollar rupee parity which was USD 1 = Rs.44.65s on 1.4.2011 touched the lowest level of USD 1 = Rs.54.30 on 15.12.2011and then the rupee bounced back to 1 USD = Rs.50.88 as on 31.3.2012. Although MRPs of both phosphatic and potassic fertilizers

were revised more than once during the year but there was always a time lag resulting in substantial loss to the Company. In fact, concerned about the likely adverse impact of frequent changes on small and marginal farmers, the Board advised the Management to keep the MRPs unchanged in the last four months of the year even if it resulted in erosion of the profitability which was subsequently quantified to the tune of Rs.2000.000 millions (approx.)

 

The performance of monsoon during 2011-12 was by and large satisfactory. Though during the South-west monsoon, the distribution of rainfall was very erratic over time and space which is evident from the fact that out of 603 districts in the country for which only 144 districts received excess, 315 districts received normal rainfall and the remaining 144 districts received deficient/scanty rainfall.

 

The forecast for 2012-13 by Indian Meteorological Authorities is for a normal monsoon though US and Japanese experts have predicted a weaker than normal monsoon.

 

 

FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE YEAR 2011-12

 

The Company has maintained its top line growth in the Fiscal Year 2011-12 with increased turnover of Rs.255050.000 millions as against Rs.204470.000 millions during 2010-11. The increase in turnover is mainly attributed to steep increase in MRP consequent to increase in the international price of fertilisers. There has been marginal increase of 0.11 million metric tonnes of the volume sale of all products during current year as compared to previous year. As in the past, key drivers for the growth were MOP and DAP in sustaining the growth of the company.

 

The Company has earned a Pre-tax Profit of Rs. 4005.000 millions and Net Profit Rs.3242.800 millions as compared to Rs.6613.500 millions and Rs.3757.600 millions during the previous year respectively. The decrease in profitability is on account of substantial depreciation of the rupee in the second half of the year and not reworking the MRP to compensate for this depreciation, in spite of increase in volume sales, better sales realization and lower interest costs.

 

 

EXTENSION AND PROMOTION ACTIVITIES

 

The Companys sustained effort is to provide the farming community quality fertilisers in time and in adequate quantity. The Company aims to promote balanced application of fertilisers and to emphasise the significance of the role of Potash in balanced fertiliser application. This is achieved through intensified field activities such as conducting A.V.unit programmes, field demonstrations, farmers meeting and crop seminars. Number of publicity materials on various crops in English and regional languages were distributed to the farmers. The Company carried out 222 field demonstrations covering all the states of India. Further, 95 Sales Campaigns, 160 farmers meetings and 21 crop seminars were also organized in various states. The Company had spent about Rs. 27.900 millions in achieving this and has made adequate provisions made in the budget for this activity.

 

 

PROSPECTS FOR 2012-13

 

The Year 2012-13 has not started on a very promising note as in spite of reduction in the global prices of DAP and unchanged MOP prices, the MRPs of these products had to be substantially increased by the Industry because of reduction in the subsidy by Government of India and a further weakening of Indian rupee which touched as low as 1 USD = Rs.56.41 in the first quarter of the year. As MRP of DAP has gone up from Rs.18200/- per MT to Rs.24000/- per MT and Potash having gone up from Rs.11300/- to Rs.16800/- per MT, the consumer resistance seems inevitable. There is a widespread feeling that consumption of Potash, which is the main product of the Company, will take a further hit over 29% decline seen during 2011/12 while Phosphatic fertilizer consumption could drop by 10/15% if not more. Of course, these estimates are subject to normal monsoon and if the monsoon turns out to be lower than normal, the consumption of all fertilizers could take a beating with adverse

repercussions on the agricultural economy of the country. Under these circumstances, a drop in the volume sales as well as turnover of the Company is on the cards. As in this adverse market, sales will have to be made on credit, the company will have to borrow more at higher rates of interest which will bring profitability under severe pressure.

 

However, improved results can be expected in Dairy and Cattle Feed Division with better capacity utilization and lower incidence of depreciation.

 

In case of Sugar Division, in spite of measures like cost reduction and all round improvement in performance, the desired turn around could not be brought about as U.P. Government pegged the Procurement Price of Sugarcane at the highest level in the country for political reasons. But small decontrol measures have already been taken by opening up of exports and it is hoped that sugar and molasses prices will improve in 2nd and 3rd quarter of the year.

 

The work on two Joint Venture Projects namely Green Field Port Facility on Gujarat Coast and Integrated Sugar Complex in Bihar has not made the desired progress. The Gujarat Government which had promised to expedite required sanctions etc., has not taken any action on their pending application for which they have been keeping the Board informed. A Litigation has stalled the progress in Bihar. But it is hoped that the stay order will be vacated by first week of July 2012 and work will resume in right earnest thereafter.

PRESS RELEASE

 

 

INDIAN POTASH STRIKES DEAL WITH BPC TO IMPORT MOP AT $427 A TONNE

 

New Delhi, Feb 6:  

Indian Potash Ltd (IPL) has signed a contract with Belarusian Potash Company (BPC) to import 1 million tonnes of muriate of potash (MOP) at $427 a tonne in the current year. The pricing of the new deal is about 15 per cent lower than the previous contract signed at $490.

 

BPC, a joint venture distributor of Belaruskali and Uralkali, will begin MoP supplies to IPL from this month till January 2014. “The delivery price of potash fertiliser for India has been set at $427 per tonne on CFR basis. BPC deliveries under the contract with IPL will total 1 million tonnes,” BPC said in a statement.

 

”We strongly believe that the agreement is bringing us one step forward in restoring potash demand and will influence positively both the domestic and global potash market,” said Valery Ivanov, CEO of BPC.

 

India, which is dependent on imports to meet its potash demand, has imported about 5.5 million tonnes of the nutrient in the past 18 months.

 

IPL, the largest domestic importer of potash, expects to negotiate with other suppliers for another million in the current year, said Managing Director, P.S. Gehlaut. “We expect to bring the MoP shipments into the country from April,” he said.

 

Due to the huge unsold fertiliser stocks, especially of di-ammonium phosphate, urea and other complexes, the Government had recently told fertiliser makers not to bring in any more imported nutrients in the current financial year.

 

 

INDIAN POTASH TO DIVERSIFY INTO SUGAR AND PORTS

 

New Delhi, July 10:  

The Rs 20,000-crore turnover Indian Potash Limited (IPL) has chalked out plans to diversify into sugar manufacturing with its recent acquisition of two sugar mills from the Uttar Pradesh Government, besides eyeing into port-related projects.

 

Talking to Business Line here, the IPL Managing Director, Dr P.S. Gahlaut, said that “the plus point is lot of land and the minus point is very bad work culture. So we are giving voluntary retirement scheme to people and to get good professionals and start investing. As the process of change or make-over is complete, we will install power plants.”

 

Investment in power

 

Stating that power from sugarcane base is by far the cheapest and cleanest, he said the company would invest at least Rs 700-800 crore in the next four years to set up power plants. It is also much cheaper than from giant power plants coming up all over that are based on imported coal, he said, adding that capital expenditure per megawatt is the lowest in cane-based power plants as opposed to coal-fired plants.

 

Dr Gahluat contends that the company handles fertiliser shipments of more than three million tonnes a year at all the major and minor ports with the core competence of IPL being its excellent stevedoring, clearing and forwarding arrangement at all the ports, matching infrastructure of port godowns, mobile bagging plants at the shores and inland storage facilities at more than 500 strategic locations.

 

The company plans to consolidate these inherent strengths by developing port-related projects in its ongoing expansion plans, he added. The efficient management of the entire gamut of fertiliser ship-handling and distribution to domestic retail outlets through cooperatives continue to be the mainstay of the organisation that completed six decades last year, he said.

 

Cattle feed

 

Dr Gahlaut said in recent years, IPL has diversified into high quality cattle feed and set up a production unit at Sikandarabad in Bulandshahar district of Uttar Pradesh and IPL cattle feeds had improved the milch capacity, besides facilitating healthier calving.

 

With farmers seeking to overcome the problems inherent in agriculture and increase their income with rearing of livestock, IPL has taken this opportunity to lend its support to them by procuring milk from the village cooperatives through its ultra modern processing at its own plants so that the final products passes a host of tests to be hygienic and wholesome.

 

He said the company's dairy divisions sell three lakh litres of milk a day under “dairy fresh' logo and its cattle feed plants of 250 to 300 tonnes were being scaled up.

 

Potash holiday

 

Asked about the ‘potash holiday' declared by the authorities this year in the face of unrelenting spurt in the price of potash prices, Dr Gahlaut conceded that “it is unfortunate as things stand today. We have no reserves on our own and the problem is that we deal with just two big players from overseas—Russia and Canada for our total import requirements”.

 

He said the price prevailing overseas has no relationship to cost and if the supplier just like that hikes it by $100, there would be a $100 increase in the price of muriate of potash (MOP). He also voiced concern that if the ‘potash holiday' continues, the company's budgeted turnover of Rs 25,000 crore for the current fiscal would suffer a knock.

 

MMTC tie-up

 

To a specific query about IPL's recent alliance with MMTC in selling the latter's gold jewellery products through its vast distribution networks across the rural India, Dr Gahlaut said that the logic was inescapable in that as fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry had identified rural demands for beauty parlours and gems, IPL conceived the idea of selling gold and medallions of purity to farmers who had always been taken for a ride by goldsmiths of dubious nature foisting their wares on gullible rural households.

The move would help farmers during times of difficulties too since the gold and medallion they acquire in good times could be disposed of without loss of value as the MMTC brands of jewellery and medallions were hall-marked and trusted, he said.
