GENERAL CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

Subject is a subsidiary of Tata Steel Limited, engaged in the manufacture of foundry grade pig iron. The Company is having its manufacturing plants at Kharagpur in the state of West Bengal and at Redi in the State of Maharashtra.

 

 

CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE:

 

Authorized Share Capital

 

TML has increased and changed the authorized share capital of the company from Rs 1000.000 Millions to Rs.1500.000 Millions by (i) retaining 50.000 Millions equity shares of Rs. 10 each aggregating Rs. 500.000 Millions (ii) re-classifying 50.000 Millions equity shares of Rs. 10/- each as 500.000 Millions preference shares of Rs.100/- each aggregating Rs.500.000 Millions; and (iii) creation of Rs. 500.000 Millions preference shares of Rs.  100/- each aggregating Rs.  500.000 Millions, through postal ballot.

 

Issued, subscribed and paid-up capital

 

The Company has received Rs. 1000.000 Millions from its holding company i.e. Tata Steel Limited (TSL) by way of equity and made an allotment of Rs. 10.000 Millions redeemable preference shares of Rs. 100/- each to TSL, on preferential allotment basis

 

BUSINESS RESULTS

 

In the year, TML passed through considerable difficulty mainly due to soaring prices of coal and iron ore. The price of coal and iron ore went up by 30% over the previous year while product prices could be raised only upto 17%. This reduction in the spread put considerable pressure on the margins.

 

Due to steep increase in price of lump ore from Karnataka associated with limited availability and significant drop in quality, TML had to suspend operations at Redi from October 2011. With only one plant in operation, the sales volume declined significantly from 473,332 tons in 2010-11 to 356,121 tons in 2011-12.

 

TML had entered into an agreement to sell the Redi Unit, and prepaid a considerable portion of the long term debt to make the unit unencumbered. The transaction could not be consummated due to irreconcilable differences with the buyer. This has resulted in an imbalanced capital structure. The Company is taking steps to restate the appropriate mix of long term and short term debts.

 

Kharagpur operations also incurred losses due to higher raw material costs, disruption in iron ore supply in the last quarter of the year and unstable blast furnace health that led to higher coke consumption.

 

Tata Metaliks Kubota Pipes Limited (TMKPL) subsidiary of the Company could increase the production of pipes by 143% from 20402 tons to 49,502 tons but could not achieve its business targets for the year due to lower net realizations arising out of intense competition in the ductile iron (the "DI") pipe industry. The DI Pipe business witnessed entry of three new manufacturers (including TMKPL) all located in the eastern part of the country. This brought about « 20-25% drop in net realization for pipes which made the business unprofitable for all manufacturers of DI Pipe. Towards the end of 2011-12, prices began moving up but are still below expected levels. The upward trend in coke and iron ore prices also caused a significant increase in the input cost of the business.

 

Thus, on a consolidated basis TML reported a Loss after Tax and Minority Interest of Rs. 1134.700 Millions in 2011-12 against a profit of Rs. 5.700 Millions in the previous year.

 

SALES PERFORMANCE

 

During 2011-12, the Company produced 352,322 tons of hot metal and sold 303,278 tons of pig iron (domestic 295942 tons with market share of 8% and export 7336 tons). The off-take of hot metal by the DI pipe business started to increase over the months and reached its maximum in March 2012. The sales performance of pig iron for the past five years is presented below:

 

Domestic prices of pig iron which were stable in the first quarter of 2011-12 started rising from August 2011 and thereafter again remained stable. International prices remained significantly lower than domestic prices and the company did not find it lucrative to export pig iron. Therefore, exports share in the total revenue was marginal. Pig iron market remained volatile and non-committal with regard to long term purchases. The total share of pig iron produced by secondary manufacturers has marginally declined from 89.64% in 2010-11 to 88.08% in 2011-12. Some pig iron producers had to curtail their production due to non availability of iron ore. Increased availability of low cost substitutes including basic grade pig iron and steel scrap, prompted foundries to reduce usage offoundry grade pig iron.

 

Expansion Projects

 

(i) Projects at Kharagpur

a) As previously reported, the Directors are hopeful of commissioning the 40m2 Sinter Plant at Kharagpur by September, 2012. This project will enable TML to substitute 50% ofthe expensive lump ore by sinter in the blast furnace burden.

b) The Board of Directors of the Company has also approved normal relining, modification and up gradation of MBF#2 at the Kharagpur Unit for its capacity enhancement from the current volume of 215m3 to a new volume of 259m3. The cooling water circuit of the blast furnace will also be modified to reduce water consumption. This, together with bell less top charging facility, will yield benefits to the Company through increase in production by 15000 THM/year, decrease in coke rate by 12 kg/THM and reduction in specific emission by 0.07 TC02/THM.

 

(ii) Karnataka Project

Further to the development reported last year, there have not been any major developments except on land acquisition. Against the approval for allotment of 2500 acres of land, the Company was asked to make advance payments to Karnataka Industrial Area Development Board (KIADB).

 

(iii) Backward integration - Acquisition of mines

The Company has taken up with Government to get a mining lease after submitting the prospecting report and mining lease application for Dongarpal Mines, from Government of Maharashtra. Proposals for acquisition of mines in the iron ore bearing states of Karnataka, Odisha, Jharkhand, Chhatisgarh for the 3 mtpa steel project as well as raw material linkages for Kharagpur project are being pursued.

 

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS :

 

While 2011-12 started on a positive note with the world economy coming out of the recessionary effects of previous years, economic, political and other developments soon turned the tide. The year witnessed considerable uncertainty with the debt crisis in Europe and prospects of a slowdown in other developed nations impacting overall growth prospects adversely. Emerging economies were not insulated and also experienced lower growth rates.

 

As a result, commodity prices went up almost to the peak levels experienced earlier, with the expectation that demand would be going up in the same way. Prices of iron ore, coking coal and thermal coal rose to unexpected levels.

 

Over and above this, there was a shortage of iron ore in India as a result of the ban on mining in most of the mines in Karnataka and many in Odisha. This embargo on mining resulted in shortfall of good quality iron ore supplies at competitive prices.

 

The Indian pig iron industry had to face these price and availability pressures and experienced contraction in margins. In 2011 -12, raw material prices have increased by more than 30% whereas pig iron prices increased partially upto 17% after a lag off our months. In addition, rising interest rates and depreciation of the Rupee against the US Dollar have put further stress on the profitability. The slowdown together with the restriction on iron ore mining in Karnataka had a severe impact on the performance of the Redi plant of the Company.

 

With continuing growth, albeit at a lower rate, in the automobile and energy sector, which are the major consumers of the casting manufacturers, demand for castings is expected to have a moderate growth. With higher availability of iron ore, after partial lifting of the ban on iron ore mining in Karanataka, pig iron producers will witness better capacity utilization. However, margins of pig iron industry are expected to be under pressure due to high raw material costs and the industry's inability to pass on the increased cost to its consumers.

 

In the domestic market, over the last two decades, market share of pig iron has moved from the integrated steel plants (Main producers) to the stand-alone pig iron units (Secondary producers).During 2011-12, for the first time, the share of production of the secondary producers fell by about one percent, since the secondary producers found the business less competitive , which resulted in curtailment of production.

 

 

INTERNATIONAL SCENARIO OF PIG IRON AND COKE PRICES 

 

Historically pig iron prices have been found to move in tandem with the coke prices and in general pig iron prices are US$ 80 -120 more than coke prices. In 2011-12 however, the gap between pig iron price and coke price narrowed significantly down to

$50.

 

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE WITH RESPECT TO OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

 

The Company produced 342,597 tons of Pig iron in 2011-12 compared to 477,115 tons in the previous year. In 2011-12 the Company sold 356,121 tons of pig iron and hot metal to achieve a turnover of Rs. 1240.000 Millions in comparison to Rs. 14390.000 Millions of previous year turnover from sales of 473,332 tons. On a standalone basis, in 2011-12, the company incurred a Loss after Tax of Rs. 906.000 Millions against a Profit after Tax of Rs. 229.500 Millions in 2010-11.

 

Production at the Kharagpur unit suffered due to poor health of both the blast furnaces with dislodged refractory lining and leaking shell plates.

 

With availability being a constraint, iron ore for the Redi unit had to be sourced from multiple mines in the first half of 2011-12. On account differences in chemical composition, the coke rate was adversely impacted and this resulted in higher operating costs. The plant was shut down in the second half of the financial year in view of these difficulties and high prices of iron ore. The business transfer agreement for divestment of the Redi Plant could not be concluded on account of certain irreconcilable differences and was terminated in March 2012.

 

Offtake of hot metal by Tata Metaliks Kubota Pipes Ltd. (TMKPL) was higher in 2011-12 and it was able to produce 49502 tons of Ductile Iron (DI) Pipe in 2011-2012 compared to 20402 tons in 2010-11; an increase of 143% increase over the previous year. TMKPL achieved a sale of Rs. 2374.900 Millions in the domestic market. However, due to low capacity utilization and realizations, TMKPL incurred a loss of Rs. 444.300 Millions, an increase of 1.27% over the previous year.

 

Hence, on a consolidated basis the Company ended 2011-12 with a Loss before Tax and minority interest of Rs. 1701.000 Millions against a Loss before Tax and minority interest of Rs. 152.000 Millions in 2010-11.

 

 

OUTLOOK:

 

The projected addition of hot metal capacities by large integrated steel producers and the secondary pig iron manufacturers is likely to create a situation of oversupply as against the projected demand. The supply demand imbalance would keep pig iron prices under pressure. However, the raw material prices of iron ore and coal are expected to fall in the coming months when Karnataka's iron ore mines and Australia's coal mines start producing at the normalized level. The outlook for sourcing raw materials to Redi plant looks difficult until the ban on iron ore mining is completely lifted.

 

On account of low demand, capacities in the foundry industry are currently underutilized. In the long term perspective, this industry is destined to grow with the imminent growth in automobile and engineering sector. India is expected to emerge as a global hub of cast components. The Indian foundry industry is geared up to utilize the immense opportunity of becoming an Asian hub for supply of high quality castings for automotive, auto ancillary and other capital goods industries. Revised global forecast for 2015 suggests that world casting production will reach 93.500 Million tons from 91.400 Million tons in 2011. The Indian casting industry being the second largest casting producer (9.05 million ton in 2011) should further strengthen itself, resulting in higher consumption of pig iron. Hence, under current scenario the pig iron market is expected to remain depressed for some time now but is likely to improve with favourable demand and input costs in the future.
