INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services and software workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth in 2011 slowed because of persistently high inflation and interest rates and little progress on economic reforms. High international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures contributing to a higher fiscal deficit, and a worsening current account deficit. Little economic reform took place in 2011 largely due to corruption scandals that have slowed legislative work. India's medium-term growth outlook is positive due to a young population and corresponding low dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates, and increasing integration into the global economy. India has many long-term challenges that it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural employment opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education, and accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

ANNUAL PERFORMANCE

 

The company has registered record total revenue of Rs. 53746.000 Millions, a growth of 8.9% over last year's revenue of Rs. 49355.000 Millions. Thermax's Energy business comprising Boiler and Heater, Power, Cooling and Heating contributed 78.2% of the total revenue while the Environment business comprising Air Pollution Control, Chemicals, Water and Wastewater Solutions accounted for the remaining 21.8%. Last year, the share of Energy and Environment businesses was 80% and 20% respectively.

 

During the year, exports, including deemed exports were higher at Rs. 11427.000 Millions from Rs. 10659.000 Millions last year, an increase of 7.2%.

 

Profit before tax at Rs. 6009.000 Millions was 11.2% of total revenue as compared to Rs. 5727.000 Millions in the previous year which was 11.6%. The company maintained the EBITDA margins at 11% even though the year witnessed increase in input costs. The company’s management continues to work on building operational efficiency and controlling costs on a sustainable basis at divisional and overall company levels.

 

Profit after tax and extraordinary items was at Rs. 4069.000 Millions compared to Rs. 3824.000 Millions in the previous year. Earnings Per Share (EPS) rose to Rs. 34.15 from Rs. 32.09 in 2010-11.

 

Order booking for the year was Rs. 40320.000 Millions against Rs. 53180.000 Millions last year. Your company completed the year with an order backlog of Rs. 42300.000 Millions as against Rs. 56050.000 Millions in the previous year. 2011-12 had been a challenging year for the capital goods sector. Various policy and economic factors were responsible for significantly reducing fresh investments and order finalisations in the power sector, affecting order booking and resulting in lower order backlog. The order inflows were lower compared to the previous year as the economy witnessed a slowing down of growth, particularly in the second half of the financial year.

 

The profit after tax on a consolidated basis is lower than the stand alone results owing to the losses incurred by the subsidiaries namely, Thermax Instrumentation Limited (TIL), Thermax (Zhejiang) Cooling and Heating Engineering Company Limited (TZL) and the company's share of losses in the recent joint venture subsidiaries, Thermax Babcock and Wilcox Energy Solutions Private Limited (TBWES) and Thermax SPX Energy Technologies Limited TIL, which undertakes erection and commissioning work for the Power division of the company, is expected to face a challenging year ahead. TZL improved its business operations and reduced operating losses. TBWES is yet to be operational.

 

The consolidated total income of the Thermax Group was Rs. 61742.000 Millions (Rs. 53936.000 Millions, previous year) recording a 14.5% increase. Income from international business including deemed exports was up 25.9% to Rs. 15742.000 Millions from Rs. 12503.000 Millions. The Group registered a profit before tax of Rs. 5965.000 Millions (Rs. 5734.000 Millions, previous year). Profit after tax, extraordinary items and minority interest was Rs. 4035.000 Millions for the year. Consequently, EPS also increased to Rs. 33.86 (Rs. 32.03 after extraordinary item, previous year).

 

A detailed review of performance and future prospects of the company’s business and its subsidiaries is included in the section 'Management Discussion and Analysis'.

 

The audited consolidated financial statements presented by the company include the financial results of all subsidiary companies, prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard 21 issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. In addition, a statement of summarised financials of all the subsidiaries is included.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Overview of the business Environment

 

The Indian economy, in the wake of the positive performance of the previous year, began 2011-12 with high growth expectations. The Eurozone crisis, along with the Fukushima disaster and apprehensions about a weak American recovery toned down the global growth expectations. This was compounded by a crisis of confidence induced in the Indian economy by the domestic coalition compulsions, and increased social activism deterring the process of policy making and governance. Throughout the financial year, the RBI continued to increase interest rates under a tightening monetary policy to rein in the headline inflation. Despite the plea of the business and industrial stakeholders of the country that the interest rates on borrowing for capacity building have already crossed permissible levels, the Government and the Reserve Bank continued with monetary policy adjustment alone rather than addressing the supply side constraints through legislative measures. The net effect was a decline in our domestic economic growth, quarter over quarter, bringing it down from 8.6% in FY 2011 to 6.9% for FY 2012. Except for 2008-09 when the growth rate was only 6.7%, the year gone by witnessed one of the lowest growth in nine years.

 

While both agriculture and services sector performed well during the year, internally, India's slowdown can be attributed almost entirely to a weakening industrial growth rate. The manufacturing sector could only register a growth of 2.7% and 0.4% respectively in the second and third quarters of 2011-12.

 

For industry – especially the capital goods sector – the most worrying aspect was a feeble IIP growth of 2.8% for 2011-12 against a robust 8.2% growth seen in fiscal 2010-11. During the year, the sector witnessed a major slowdown in order booking and subdued execution owing to lower infrastructure spending, rising input costs and spiralling interest rates. Confidence in growth, critical for capital formation and expenditure, remained at a low level throughout the year. This was reflected in the sharp fall in fresh order inflows, especially in the power sector.

 

Growth in power generation during April'11-January'12 was 8.6% as compared to 5.2% during April’10- January’11, reflecting unfulfilled demand. However, new plants being ordered out plummeted to low levels compared to previous years.

 

Barring roads, all other constituents of the infrastructure sector – power, oil and gas, cement and mining – witnessed a sluggish trend in the current fiscal. With the unlikely prospect of a reduction in interest rates, factors such as weakening rupee, higher inflation rate and constrained governance, the corporate sector adopted a wait-and-watch approach resulting in the absence of big-ticket projects.

 

After protracted discussions and modifications, a comprehensive National Manufacturing Policy was announced by the Government. If implemented in its letter and spirit, the policy can certainly give an impetus to industrial growth in India. National Manufacturing Investment Zones, as envisaged in the policy, have sufficient potential to create world class enterprises.

 

The recently held Durban Climate Change Conference marked an important step forward in the climate change negotiations. Compared to the earlier Cancun summit, this conference outcome paved a decisive way forward in terms of the Kyoto Protocol and the stand of developing countries like India. The discussions at Durban also opened a window for discussions on the post 2020 arrangements for the global climate change regime. The National Action Plan on Climate Change will continue to present a wide range of opportunities to organisations in the field of energy and environment.

 

Moving on to the current financial year, the global economic scenario is challenged by a socialistic polarisation of Europe, delaying the possibility of a recovery and even increasing the fear of a collapse. This will have far reaching ramifications on our domestic economy compelling us to accept the possibility of a further contraction in the GDP growth. India will also face the added challenge of a fast depreciating currency as a sequel to the uncontrolled inflation and unmanageable levels of subsidies propelled by the import of energy resources (coal, oil and gas) and the recently introduced Food Security Bill. These will see the spiralling of subsidies beyond the committed level of 2% GDP, resulting in a fiscal deficit way above the budgeted levels.

 

The downgrade of the nation's credit rating by S&P could have an adverse impact on year 2012-13 in terms of making finance dearer for corporates, particularly in foreign currencies. The agency has indicated that GDP growth could fall to 5.3% as against the government expectations of over 7%. This downgrade along with continued high fiscal deficit could put increased pressure on the rupee, next year.

 

OVERVIEW OF COMPANY OPERATIONS

 

The company registered improved results for fiscal 2011-12 with total revenue of Rs. 53746.000 Millions and a net profit after tax of Rs. 4069.000 Millions. Export income including deemed exports, during the financial year, increased to Rs. 11430.000 Millions.

 

The economic uncertainties of the country, especially in the power sector caused Thermax's order booking to decline to Rs. 40321.000 Millions, a reduction of 24.2% from the previous year. The project businesses of the company – Power, Boiler & Heater, Air pollution Control (Enviro) – were adversely affected by the shortfall in orders. As a result, the order balance at the end of the year reduced by 24.5% to Rs. 42300.000 Millions from Rs. 56054.000 Millions, the previous year.

 

Sixty two percentage of the orders booked during the year were repeat orders from our existing customers. Among the sectors that contributed to the orders booked, the leading ones were ferrous metals, power, refinery and cement. Even as these sectors continued to be the largest contributors of this year's revenue, compared to the previous year, in real terms they have shrunk. However, sectors like food, textiles, pharma and sugar, insulated from the economic turbulence, have performed well and the company's standard product businesses have gained orders from these sectors.

 

In the orders booked for the export market, South East Asia had the largest share, followed by West Asia, Africa, SAARC and Europe. Thermax's renewed focus on Africa is yielding better dividends from this market. Your company acquired Rifox-Hans Richer GmbH, a German company specialising in energy efficiency products, effective from April 2012. The business will be a strategic fit for the company's steam engineering business handled by the Service SBU (Cooling and Heating division).

 

The Service business of the company grew by 16% over the previous year. Power Plant Management Services is supporting 995 MW equivalent of power plants, of which 48% are for plants constructed by our competitors.

 

NEW PRODUCTS

 

The company has launched a very high efficiency, triple effect absorption chiller that has reduced energy consumption by 30%. Deploying this product, Thermax installed a unique solar based air conditioning system at the National Solar Research Centre, Gurgaon, with the support of the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE). This technology demonstration project will need to undergo commercial feasibility and initiatives for cost reduction are already underway.

 

A new compact hot water chiller was introduced for basements of commercial complexes where space is a major constraint.

 

The first low capacity CFBC Boiler using a combination of U-beam and cyclone technology was also commissioned. This product will find major applications for very poor quality coal as well as lignite, petcoke and biomass.

 

A) POWER

 

The Power division maintained its performance during the year, based on orders carried forward from the previous year. The year saw four more captive power plants getting commissioned, enabling the division cross the cumulative 1000 MW mark for successfully commissioned projects.

 

This year, the division bagged only one major order from a viscose fibre producer in Gujarat for a cogeneration project that will generate 96 MW of power and steam.

 

Due to adverse market conditions, especially in the power sector in India, there were very few order finalisations. To derisk the business, Power division focused on related areas. It has successfully pre-qualified to address the balance of turbine island package from Nuclear Power Corporation of India; and for the Balance of Plant package in thermal power projects as well as gas based power plants of 350 MW and above. The division has also renewed its efforts in overseas markets and has signed two MoUs.

 

The 2 x 150 MW IIP project in Andhra Pradesh is due for commissioning in the first half of FY 12-13. The gas based cogeneration plant for a petrochemical unit in Karnataka is also progressing well. The division continued to focus on safety measures at project sites. Several of its teams have won client appreciation and awards for their safety practices and 'safe manhours'.

 

The division is working on another set of power projects totaling over 1000 MW which is under various stages of erection and commissioning. In the absence of a clear stimulus for investments in infrastructure including power sector, this business expects challenging conditions to continue for the next two years.

 

POWER PLANT MANAGEMENT SERVICES

 

The Power Plant Management (O and M) Services business registered robust growth in revenues in the year. Repeat orders from its customers and renewals of earlier contracts contributed to this sustained growth. To tide over the uncertain business environment, several companies outsourced their captive power plants for O and M, on a variable pricing model based on plant load factor to lower their breakeven point. The company responded with some innovative pricing structures and flexible manpower that can be shared across a cluster of power plant sites. New sectors covered were sugar, non recovery coke oven plants and independent power producers.

 

The SBU ensured that the two cogeneration power plants based predominantly on biomass in the Philippines attained availability of 95%.

 

Apart from Udaipur, one more training centre was opened in Trichy (Tamil Nadu) to train young engineers in power plant O and M to create a steady supply of skilled manpower for their growing number of sites.

 

With opportunities emerging in public sector undertakings who face shortage of staff and are looking at outsourcing of power plant O and M, the outlook for this business continues to be positive.

 

THERMAX INSTRUMENTATION LIMITED (SUBSIDIARY)

 

Thermax Instrumentation Limited is the construction arm of the Power Division. During the year, this subsidiary earned a total income of Rs. 2495.000 Millions (Rs. 2365.000 Millions, previous year). The company posted a net loss of Rs. 104.000 Millions (Rs. 34.000 Millions profit after tax, previous year) because of cost escalations at some of its project sites. This may continue in the forthcoming year too, and will turn profitable by FY 2014-15.

 

BOILER AND HEATER

 

The Boiler and Heater division of the company registered reasonable growth in revenues during the year. This growth was supported by a healthy order carry forward from the previous year.

 

During the year, the division successfully commissioned many large Circulating Fluidised Bed Combustion (CFBC) boilers, predominantly in the captive power plant sector. It also commissioned high capacity process fired heaters for refineries in India and the first high pressure bagasse fired boiler supplied by the company in Thailand. A heat recovery steam generator, successfully commissioned for an oilfield development project in Netherlands, meeting European emission norms will help Thermax win assignments with EPC majors in developed markets on similar projects.

 

The division's manufacturing facility at Chinchwad exceeded its installed capacity and the Savli facility’s production was very close to the rated capacity.

 

The division received a 120 MW BTG order based on blast furnace gas firing from a leading public sector steel plant in South India. It stabilised its spent wash combustion technology, resulting in fresh enquiries and order finalisations.

 

The unfavorable environment for investment decisions resulted in shrinking markets and aggressive competition from both established and emerging players. FY 2013 appears to be tough for the Boiler and Heater business. Refining and petrochemical segments, steel, distillery and sugar are expected to bring in business for the division. A revival of captive power plants using solid fuels is also anticipated, due to the ongoing impasse on grid power.

 

B AND H SERVICES

 

The services arm of Boiler and Heater business continues to focus on retrofit and revamp services for ageing heating equipment in Indian and global markets. The division completed a retrofit assignment for a South East Asian national oil company. This business stream is likely to continue, as customers are likely to avoid capex investments and opt for revenue based expenditure in the wake of the prevailing difficult economic environment.

Fuel shortage due to gas and coal availability issues and high prices of oil, has encouraged this group to support industrial customers with energy efficient alternatives. The division innovated and customised a waste heat recovery boiler to optimise the energy use in a coal gasification plant. For a mining company in Western India, it also installed a multi-fuel boiler, supplementing solid fuel with waste heat and other fuels.

 

THERMAX ENGINEERING CONSTRUCTION COMPANY LIMITED (SUBSIDIARY)

 

Thermax Engineering Construction Company Limited, (TECC) undertakes and executes engineering construction projects mainly for the Boiler and Heater division of the company. This subsidiary's total income for the year is Rs. 1710.000 Millions (Rs. 1201.000 Millions, previous year), on account of higher order balance at the beginning of the financial year. The company made a profit after tax of Rs. 71.000 Millions (Rs. 64.000 Millions, previous year). The company's year-end order balance is lower than the previous year. The slowdown in the capital goods sector makes the current year a challenging one for this company.

 

COOLING

 

Cooling business completed the financial year with a healthy growth in revenues. It also registered a strong growth in order booking and consequently a healthy carry forward for the new financial year. Inlet air cooling for improving power generation with minimum additional inputs brought in new business for the Cooling division. Growth has also come from the steel sector which in the absence of reliable power at competitive rates, uses alternate energy sources – waste heat, steam from processes – to meet its cooling requirements.

 

Export business accounted for more than half of the revenues for the Cooling business. Growth in order booking was witnessed in US, Europe and SE Asia markets.

 

Business in Europe, in spite of economic slowdown, grew significantly. A globally respected Japanese EPC company placed a large order for a chiller for its cogeneration plant in Thailand. Following Berlin and Rome, one more order was received for one of the busiest airports in Australia. Besides growing its business in China, the Cooling SBU also strengthened its position in Africa and CIS markets.

 

The chiller heater introduced last year to deliver 30% savings in energy bills, have found several new customers this year. With a healthy carry forward and projected business from its domestic and international markets, the cooling business is poised to witness strong growth in FY 2012-13.

 

THERMAX (ZHEJIANG) COOLING AND HEATING ENGINEERING COMPANY LTD. (OVERSEAS SUBSIDIARY)

 

In its third full year of operation since commencing operations in August 2008, Thermax (Zhejiang) Cooling and Heating Engineering Company Limited, has been supporting the global cooling business. In spite of rising costs and fierce competition in a market recovering in the current global conditions, the company grew its business 45% over the previous year, with orders gained from various regions of China.

 

For the FY 2011-12, the company had revenue of RMB 67.7 million (USD 10.8 million). After accounting for interest and depreciation, loss for the year was RMB 8.4 million (USD 1.3 million) compared to RMB 11.4 million (USD 1.8 million) for last year. An additional equity of USD 2 million has been infused in the last quarter to meet the planned total investment of USD 13.5 million.

 

With a subdued growth prospect for the Chinese economy in the current year, this subsidiary will concentrate on consolidation and reduction of losses.

 

THERMAX INC. (OVERSEAS SUBSIDIARY)

 

This step-down subsidiary in the USA focuses on ion exchange resins and absorption chillers.

 

The company reorganised its operations in 2011-12 in response to the overall economic uncertainty in the US market. The vapour absorption chiller business performed well, with a 59% increase in orders and a 71% increase in sales revenue. New clients include a major Hollywood studio, one of the largest IT companies in the world as well as an innovative Japanese electronics company for co-generation application.

 

However, the ion exchange resins market continued to be stagnant, resulting in an overall increase of 14% in the subsidiary's revenue.

 

Thermax Inc. recorded revenues of USD 13.3 million (USD 11.7 million, previous year) and a profit after tax of USD 0.21 million (USD 0.03 million, previous year) for fiscal 2012-13.

 

THERMAX EUROPE LIMITED (OVERSEAS SUBSIDIARY)

 

This subsidiary, focusing on Thermax's cooling business in Europe, closed the year with a revenue of Ł 5.33 million (previous year Ł 4.3 million) and a profit after tax of Ł 0.45 million (previous year Ł 0.40 million). Although the market has remained flat in comparison to last year, the company's focus on niche market segments and new applications helped improve its market share. The year also saw an order booking of Ł 6.4 million.

 

Prestigious orders received for cooling installations for the year include Vienna Railway station, Stanlow refinery, Kaiser Compressor, and heat pumps for Skagen district heating company.

 

While the markets in Southern Europe face economic trouble, the enquiries from Northern Europe have shown a positive trend. The outlook for 2012-13 is one of cautious optimism.

 

HEATING

 

Heating business recorded a healthy increase in its total income compared to last year, with exports accounting

for 26% of its business.

 

The major industry segments of this business such as food processing, textile, chemical, pharma, and distillery performed satisfactorily, in spite of the economic slowdown that set in from the second half of the financial year.

 

The division absorbed the Lambion grate technology transferred last year, helping it pick up several biomass based orders. Efforts are on to extend this technology to the entire product basket, which includes various packaged boilers and heaters.

 

Heating SBU received the single largest boiler and heater order from a leading Indian textile company to shift from oil/ gas to solid fuel. It has also commissioned a large DIN design vaporizer (16 Million kcal/h) to this customer's existing plant in the Western region.

 

The Heating business offers its customers in the edible oil-soap manufacturing segments a solid fuel based hi-pressure steam boiler package, using the thermosyphon principle. A new shell boiler to address the small boiler market has opened up new market potential for future growth.

 

The streamlining of operations at the manufacturing facility of this business has started showing results in terms of increased productivity, elevating the available capacity too. This will enable the Heating business to cater to the growth demands also in the near future.

 

With its chosen sectors performing satisfactorily through this slowdown phase and with the shift to biomass and other solid fuel fired systems due to high oil prices and non availability of gas, the Heating division expects to improve its performance in FY 2012-13.

 

DANSTOKER (OVERSEAS SUBSIDIARY)

 

Danstoker and its subsidiary Omnical, the companies that Thermax acquired to grow its global heating business, performed well in 2011-12. Compared to the Euro 40.5 million revenue for the year before acquisition (October'09-September'10), the company posted Euro 53 million for the changed accounting year (April'11-March'12). In the 18 months since its acquisition by the company, Danstoker has clocked Euro 78 million in revenue.

 

While Danstoker continued to maintain dominance in renewable fuel based heating systems with almost 50% of its order booking coming from this segment, Omnical continued to work with industry majors, garnering business in waste recovery boilers. 30% of Omnical's order booking came from this segment.

 

Initial forays into Latin America, Canada and Saudi Arabia are likely to generate new orders in the second half of the current fiscal and business plans are under discussion to convert these into sustainable markets. Danstoker is expected to maintain its performance during FY 2012-13

 

SERVICES (COOLING AND HEATING)

 

Cooling and Heating service business increased its total income during the year. The business offered energy efficiency solutions in complete steam circuit across various industry segments including an export order for a large paper mill.

 

The technology partnerships the SBU formed in the previous year with two companies in the US and Israel have helped offer energy saving and emission reducing solutions to its customers. During the year, it upgraded its offerings through remote monitoring devices and extended its reach through mobile service units.

 

The acquisition of the German steam engineering company, Rifox, besides supporting the division in its international business is expected to provide access to a wide range of steam efficiency products to cover saturated as well as superheated steam applications.

 

The outlook for the business continues to be positive.

 

SOLAR BUSINESS

 

The solar business commissioned two prestigious technology demonstration projects during the year. It installed a unique air conditioning project combining triple effect chillers and solar concentrators at MNRE's National Solar Research Centre. The rural electrification project at Shive, near Pune has also been successfully commissioned. Apart from these R&D based applications, the solar business unit of the company continued to expand its footprint in industrial and commercial establishments by creating hybrid systems for heating and cooling.

 

In FY 2012-13, the solar business plans to grow its business. The constraints of operating on unreliable grid power plus the possibilities of integrating renewable systems to existing energy infrastructure, will help in gaining increasing acceptance for the company's solar thermal products. The outlook is positive.

 

AIR POLLUTION CONTROL (ENVIRO)

 

The air pollution control business brought in a healthy increase in its revenues. Increased competition from new international players as well as many local companies have resulted in compromised margins in this business.

Construction work of its upcoming facility at Solapur, Maharashtra is nearing completion and commercial operation is expected to start in the first quarter of FY 2012-13.

 

The division has successfully completed its largest ever Lump Sum Turnkey project for conversion of electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) to low emission fabric filters for a cement plant in Egypt through a World Bank funded global tender.

 

In 2012-13, the division is anticipating sluggish prospects in its key customer segments of cement, steel and captive power. Intense competition in these sectors is putting pressure on price realisation. Margins are under severe pressure due to fierce competition and higher input cost caused by volatile commodity prices and rupee devaluation. The division has embarked on initiatives to reduce waste, increase productivity and value engineering to partially mitigate the situation.

 

WATER AND WASTEWATER SOLUTIONS

 

Water and Wastewater Solutions business of the company has reported improved results both in revenues and profits. Fresh order intake increased both in the industrial and commercial segments. However, new orders in municipal sewage treatment were at subdued levels, since the current phase of funding under JNNURM has come to an end. The slowdown in the power sector also failed to deliver anticipated business for this group.

 

The standard products performance unit of this business has completed a productivity enhancement and standardisation initiative in collaboration with the Confederation of Indian Industry. This increased productivity and the cost of optimisation resulting from it will enable the business to increase its market share in the growing commercial as well as the MSME sector. The business has also forayed into high-end municipal drinking water solutions on a selective basis. These solutions from its stable will be limited to technology oriented projects needing high-end processes that will save space as well as deliver consistent quality of drinking water even when the input quality varies.

 

Many state level pollution control boards have set forth stringent norms to enforce treatment and recycling of effluent to save the limited resources of water. This has propelled the opening up of a new market for effluent recycle. As an innovative and technology based solution provider, your company is poised to capitalize on this emerging market.

 

Despite a slowing down domestic economy, this divisions business is poised to deliver a healthy growth in FY 2012-13.

 

CHEMICAL

 

The Chemical SBU ended the financial year with a marginal growth in sales over the last year. A sizeable portion of the division's revenue came from exports to the US, West Asia and South East Asia markets. The resin business, constrained by capacity limitation, concentrated its efforts on capturing more value-added specialty resin market. It also streamlined manufacturing processes to improve the yield in the wake of raw material price increase fuelled by crude petroleum price increase.

 

The division commissioned its new manufacturing plant for performance chemicals at Jhagadia, Gujarat during the year.

 

The performance chemical arm of the SBU has added many new accounts with products plus services offering. The paper chemical sales have grown by almost double and will break even in the coming year.

 

The business expects to deliver improved performance in FY 2012-13.

 

SERVICES (CHEMICAL AND WATER)

 

The Services business of Chemical & Water improved its business with better revenues and orders booked. In FY 2011-12, its business gained from effluent treatment and recycle projects and operation and maintenance of water utilities.

 

Among the notable projects were the three million litre per day effluent recycle plant for a 375 MW power project of the Gujarat State Electricity Corporation, and recycle plant for a textile unit that also includes a five year contract for comprehensive O&M. Breaking new ground, the SBU has also won an order for the maintenance of multi-utilities for BOP package for Tata Power’s 4000 MW ultra mega power plant in

Western India.

 

With the growing trend of outsourcing utilities and the demand for systems that help the conservation of water, the SBU is confident of improved business in FY 2012-13. The outlook is positive.

 

OTHER WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARIES

JOINT VENTURE SUBSIDIARIES

 

THERMAX BABCOCK AND WILCOX ENERGY SOLUTIONS PRIVATE LIMITED (TBWES)

 

As part of the technology transfer agreement, engineers of the joint venture company were trained at the Babcock and Wilcox facility at Barberton, Ohio.

 

Construction of the manufacturing facility for supercritical boilers at Shirwal, Maharashtra is progressing and the plant will be ready for commercial operations during the year.

 

The company is geared up to contract and execute supercritical boilers up to 3000 MW per year. Owing to issues related to land acquisition, fuel security, fund availability, environment clearances and sustainable power purchase rates, the power development initiative of the country has not taken off as anticipated less than a year ago. The joint venture expects the Government to take proactive and constructive measures at a quicker pace to reverse this trend and support the power development momentum of India.

 

THERMAX SPX ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED

 

This joint venture faced another challenging year as its product portfolio --electrostatic precipitators and regenerative air pre heaters -- were dependent on new independent power plants. There weren't any new project order finalisations during the major part of the year, and this subsidiary did not receive any orders.

 

Thermax SPX will continue to face difficulties till the power development industry recovers.
