Comments : |
Subject is a part of “Essar Group”. It is a well established company
having a moderate track record. There appears huge loss recorded by the company
during 2013. The external borrowing seems to be huge which act as a threat to
the liquidity position. However, trade relations are reported to be fair. Business is active.
Payments are reported to be slow. The company can be considered for business dealing with great caution. |

to Rs. 65.700 Millions (Previous year Rs. 65.700 Millions). During the year, the Company refinanced its rupee borrowings with one
of its existing lenders into an External Commercial Borrowing (ECB). This
resulted in conversion of debentures having face value of Rs. 320.300
Millions also into the ECB loan. Further, as per the Common Loan Agreement
(“the CLA”) entered with lenders post exit from the Corporate Debt
Restructuring (CDR) Scheme, the Company has agreed to pay interest on a
monthly/quarterly basis, on debentures held by the erstwhile CDR lenders at a
floating rate linked to the base rate of the respective bank prevailing on
August 8, 2012, with effect from January 1, 2012, resulting in the interest
rates ranging from 12.32% p.a. to 12.75% p.a. The Company is also in the
process of sending offer letters to the remaining debenture holders (i.e.
other than lenders) giving them, inter alia, an option for prepayment of
debentures along with accumulated interest in full. The principal amount of
debentures is otherwise payable from December 2014 to June 2018 and
accumulated interest from December 2014 to March 2027, with an option to
prepay certain portion of interest at a discounted rate. As an alternative,
these debenture holders can opt for revising the terms and conditions

petition, ruled vide its orders dated August 04, 2006 and August 11, 2006
that the interest on certain categories of debentures should be accounted on
cash basis. In accordance with the said petition / order, funded / accrued
interest liabilities amounting to Rs. 4177.200 Millions (Previous year Rs.
4282.400Millions) as at March 31, 2013 have not been accounted for. This
amount carries interest rate ranging from fixed rate of 5% to a floating rate
of 12.75% and is repayable from December 2014 to March 2027. b)
The Interest rates for Common Loan Agreement
(“the CLA”) (earlier Master Restructuring Agreement (“the MRA”)) loans from
Banks and Financial institutions amounting to Rs. 54592.000 Millions
(Previous year Rs. 70700.400 Millions) will based on their prime lending rate
/ base rate LIBOR plus margin (margin ranges from 2.12% to 3.00%) with
different repayment installments starting from December 2009 to March 2026. c)
During the year, the Company exited Corporate
Debt Restructuring Scheme resulting in termination of the MRA dated December
17, 2004 and entered into a CLA dated March 25, 2013 with the lenders for the
loan facilities which were hitherto being governed by the MRA. The MRA gave
an option, subject to consent of lenders, to the Company to prepay certain
funded interest loans (the FS loans) of Rs. 24716.300 Millions on or before
April 24, 2012 without interest. The FS loan has not been prepaid before
April 24, 2012 and is now governed by the CLA. In order to give accounting effect to reflect substance of the
transaction, the FS loan was, since inception, measured by the Company in
accordance with the principles of IAS 39, Financial Instruments, Recognition
and Measurement, in absence of specific guidance in Indian GAAP to cover the
specific situation. In continuance of the above said principle and applying
the principle of Accounting Standard AS 30, Financial Instruments,
Recognition and Measurement, the FS loan has, upon signing of the CLA, been
re-measured since inception, considering present value of cash flows
inclusive of interest. Accordingly, the gross liability of Rs. 31638.400
Millions of the FS loans and funded interest thereon as at March 31, 2013
(comprising of Rs. 21263.600 Millions to the banks and Rs. 1,037.48 Millions
to the financial institutions) have been measured at Rs. 18338.400 Millions
(comprising of Rs. 12343.400 Millions to the banks and Rs. 5995.000 Millions
to the financial institutions). Consequently, borrowing cost of Rs. 5367.100
Millions attributable to construction of the Refinery Project based on such
re-measurement has been capitalised as part of cost of Fixed Assets and
balance borrowing cost of Rs. 1109.400 has been recognised in the statement
of profit and loss. The FS Loans of Rs. 24716.300 Millions is repayable in various
installments from March 2021 to March 2026 and the Funded Interest thereon as
at March 31, 2013 amounting to Rs. 6921.900 Millions is repayable in 40 equal
quarterly installments beginning June 30, 2015. A funded interest loan of Rs.
2068.800 Millions (Previous year Rs. 2068.800 Millions) is payable in a
single bullet payment in 2031 and is continued to be measured in accordance
with the aforementioned principles at Rs. 349.500 Millions (Previous year Rs.
316.700 Millions). d)

(Previous year Rs. 40719.000 Millions) carry interest rate linked with

MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Global Economic and Market Overview
The global economy
is expected to improve gradually with improvement in US economic environment,
moderate growth of other emerging market economies like India, China and Brazil
and revival in Euro zone and Japan. As per the International Monetary Fund’s
(IMF) ‘World Economic Outlook’ published in April 2013, global economic growth
is progressing to 3.3% in 2013 compared to 3% in 2012. However, the stability
and growth prospectus of US economy resulted in flow of money from emerging
markets to US and other developed markets which led to sharp depreciation of
emerging market’s currencies against USD particularly India which largely
depends on import of crude. This has made managing current account deficit a
challenge for policy makers.
The global
economic environment and delay in implementation of key policy decisions by the
Government of India (Government) moderated Indian economic growth to 5% during
FY 2012-13 from 6.2% in the previous year. While India continues to be one of
the fastest growing major economies in the world, in order to sustain a healthy
growth rate in the future, the Government needs to quickly address key
infrastructural bottlenecks, huge current account deficit and uncertainty with
regard to policy and regulatory matters. The economy growth is expected to be
back on track in coming year on account of new reforms announced and measures
undertaken by the Government to contain current account deficit, high inflation
and bring about overall improvement in fiscal consolidation.
Oil and natural
gas will remain key sources of fuel in the global energy basket in the
foreseeable future in spite of global thrust on increasing the share of renewal
energy. There will be gradual increase of green / renewal energy and bio-fuels
in overall basket of energy mix. However, this is not expected to significantly
impact the oil demand. As per International Energy Agency (IEA), oil &
natural gas is expected to be around 53% of total energy consumption by year
2030. Hence, the global strategic focus on hydrocarbon fuels will be a key
issue for policy makers across the world.
World oil demand
is expected to grow at around 1 million barrel of oil equivalent per year
between 2013 and 2017 with Asia accounting for 55% of the incremental demand
growth. The focus of global energy
demand growth has decisively shifted from developed markets to Asian region.
Global markets continue to witness closures of refining capacities due to high
operating cost, declining growth due to tough economic environment, high
maintenance cost to maintain high quality products (Euro V), inability to
process heavy and ultra heavy crudes due to environmental restrictions etc. In the
last 4 years an average o\f more than 1 mmbbl of refining capacities have been
shut down each year. New refinery capacities are being added in Asia and Middle
East where demand is expected to grow at a healthy rate; the refineries in this
region also have structural cost competitiveness compared to their west
counterparts. On net basis, refinery capacity additions in next 2-3 years are
expected to be more or less equal to incremental demand which is expected to
support the refinery margins.
OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE
The Refinery
registered an impressive 46% growth in crude processing at 19.77 million metric
tones (MMT) compared to 13.50 MMT during the previous financial year. All the
new units completed under Train I expansion project were fully stabilized
within two to three months of commissioning and the Optimisation project which
took there refining capacity from 18 million metric tones per annum (MMTPA) to
20 MMTPA was also completed four months ahead of schedule in June 2012. The
Refinery has operated successfully at the enhanced capacity of 20 MMTPA from
July 2012 onwards. Detailed information on the operational performance for the
financial year is given in the Management Discussion and Analysis which is
annexed to the Directors’ Report.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
During the year,
with increase in refining capacity, the Company recorded a strong revenue
growth of 53% at ` 970680.000 Millions up from Rs. 634280.000 Millions in the
previous financial year. The Current Price Gross Refining Margin (CPGRM) for
the refinery business also registered a quantum jump at USD7.96 per barrel
compared to USD4.23 per barrel for the previous financial year. The Earning
before Interest, Depreciation, Tax and Amortization (EBIDTA) for the current
financial year increased by 74% to Rs. 36510.000 Millions From ` 21010.000
Millions for previous financial year. This is mainly on account of increase in
the sales volume arising due to expansion of Refining capacity from 10.5 MMTPA
to 20 MMTPA, higher gross refining margins, increase in other operating income
which is partially offset by MTM provision on commodity hedging. Further in the
previous year, even though the income arising out of defeasement of sales tax
incentive amounting to Rs. 778.25 was part of EBITDA, this was reversed and
shown as exceptional item. For the financial year ended March 31, 2013, the
loss after tax decreased marginally due to higher EBITDA as explained above
offset by increase in interest and depreciation expenses post completion of
Refinery expansion, which was treated as part of expenditure during
construction in the previous year. Exceptional items for the previous year
mainly represents reversal of sales tax incentive income post litigation of
this matter and provision for impact towards exit from Corporate Debt
Restructuring mechanism (CDR exit) whereas in the current year it only
represents the additional impact on CDR exit. The Company reported net loss
after tax (after exceptional items) for current financial year at Rs. 11800.000
Millions as against previous year figure of Rs. 12850.000 Millions. In the
absence of profits during the financial year, the Board has not recommended any
dividend for the year.
The Sales tax
matter has been resolved and concluded with the final judgment of Supreme Court
on September 13, 2012. The Company is required to pay balance sales tax
liability in two years with 10% interest. The Company has successfully tied up
for term loan facility with a Bank to mitigate the liquidity risk of payment of
sales tax liability.
The Company’s exit
from CDR mechanism is another crucial landmark achieved by the Company towards
the end of the financial year.

PRESS RELEASE
ONGC,
ESSAR OIL SHORTLISTED TO BID FOR IRAQ'S NASSIRIYA FIELD
September
03, 2013
Two firms were among 5 companies that Iraq added to previously
shortlisted 7 global energy giants for the development of the Nassiriya oil
field
State-owned
Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC) and Essar Oil have been shortlisted to bid for
development of Iraq's $4.4 billion Nassiriya oil field and the construction of
a new 300,000 barrels per day refinery.
The
two firms were among five companies that Iraq added to previously shortlisted 7
global energy giants for the development of the Nassiriya oil field and the
construction of a dedicated export refinery as one package.
Besides ONGC and Essar, the new bidders added are Russia's Rosneft, Maurel and
Prom of France, and South Korea's GS Engineering and Construction, according to
Iraq's Oil Ministry.
Iraq
had in March shortlised seven firms including Reliance Industries to bid for
the project. Others shortlisted then included French energy giant Total,
Russia's Lukoil, CNPC of China and American firm Brown Energy.
Russia's
Zarubezhneft and JGC and Tonen General of Japan were the other two shortlisted
in March from 14 companies that expressed interest in taking up the
multi-billion dollar project.
All
the 12 qualified firms will now be invited to review data packages and discuss
contract terms. Iraq intends to award the project by year end.
The
OPEC nation has three main refineries - Baiji, Daura and Basra -- with a total
capacity of around 567,000 barrels per day (bpd). It wants to increase the
refining capacity to 750,000 bpd through improvements in existing plants.
It also plans four new refineries in Karbala, Kirkuk, Missan and in Nassiriya.
"The
Al-Nasiriya Integrated Project contemplates the development of the 4-plus
billion barrel Nasiriya oil field in Thi-Qar province together with the
construction and operation of a new 300,000 bpd refinery," Iraq's
Petroleum Contracts and Licensing Directorate (PCLD), part of the Ministry of
Oil, said.
The
international engineering and construction firm Foster Wheeler recently
completed a Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) study for the refinery.
The
Nasiriya project marks re-entry of RIL into Iraq.
The
company's Dubai-based arm Reliance Exploration and Production DMCC had in 2007
taken a 100 per cent stake in the Rovi and Sarta blocks in Kurdistan.
Baghdad
termed the award of exploration contract to RIL and other firms by the autonomous
Kurdistan region as illegal and threatened to blacklist any firm that dealt
with the Kurds.
A
year after the blacklisting threat, RIL did not apply for being shortlisted for
development of oil fields in Iraq.
Thereafter,
it did not figure in the list of companies applying to bid for successive
licensing rounds of Iraq.
RIL
finally got rid of the Kurd blocks in July last year when it sold its stake to
Chevron Corp for an undisclosed sum.
ESSAR OIL IN RED ON RUPEE
VOLATILITY
August 15, 2013
Board appoints Prashant Ruia as Non-Executive Chairman
Negative forex fluctuations arising out of 10% rupee depreciation during the first quarter of this fiscal has lead to Essar Oil reporting a net loss of Rs 8630.000 Millions.
Net loss has however, narrowed 43% as compared to the first quarter last fiscal when Essar Oil reported a net loss of Rs 15180.000 Millions. The company had reported net profit of Rs 2000.000 Millions during the fourth quarter of last fiscal.
“The quarter was marked by rupee volatility, which has impacted our profitability due to mark-to-market provisions. Due to prudent risk management policy followed by us, there are no cash losses," said Suresh Jain, CFO, Essar Oil.
A press statement from the company said it follows a very prudent risk management policy to hedge all its risks against currency fluctuations. As a result, the forex variations are mostly of mark-to-market nature, which is recoverable through sales or gross refining margin (GRM) in next quarters and hence have cash and earning neutral impact during the full financial year.
Essar Oil posted a 12% increase in revenue at Rs 247210.000 Millions against Rs 221090.000 Millions during in the correspoding previous quarter. The company's GRM for the quarter stood at $7 per barrel against $4.69 per barrel during April-June quarter of 2012.
For the quarter, the refinery processed 5.14 metric million tonnes (MMT) of crude, up 15% against the corresponding last quarter. The refinery continues to function at over its nameplate capacity of 20 MMTPA for the last four consecutive quarters with all units stabilized. During the quarter, the refinery operated at 103% of its capacity. Share of ultra heavy crude in refinery’s crude diet rose to 56% in the reporting quarter from 48% in the same period last year.
“The refinery has demonstrated excellent operating performance with a very strong focus on safety and has consistently outperformed the targeted benchmark IEA margins. Going forward, we are looking to further strengthen our retail business as the deregulation of diesel is eventually in sight based on regular increase in the retail prices," said LK Gupta, Managing Director and CEO, Essar Oil.
"We continue on our path to dollarize our debt and have converted rupee term loans into equivalent foreign currency debt of $340 million through ECBs /Swaps, taking our total dollarized debt to $821 million, in line with RBI approval. Besides providing interest saving, this also enhances our liquidity position,” Jain added.

Mumbai: Essar Oil, India’s second largest private refiner and part of UK-listed Essar Energy plc, today reported a 12% increase in revenue to Rs. 247210.000 Millions for Q1 FY14, compared to Rs. 221090.000 Millions reported in Q1FY13, on the back of 15% improvement of throughput, which stood at 5.14 MMT during the quarter, against 4.48 MMT during the same period in FY13.
The EBITDA was at Rs. 11060.000 Millions compared to negative Rs. 1780.000
Millions in Q1 FY13. The Current Price Gross Refining Margin stood at $7.01 /
bbl in Q1 FY14 up 49% over $4.69 / bbl in Q1 FY13, reflecting the higher
complexity benefits post completion of expansion and optimization projects.
The company reported a net loss of Rs. 8630.000 Millions during the quarter, mainly due to negative forex fluctuations arising out of 10% rupee depreciation during the quarter. Essar Oil follows a very prudent risk management policy to hedge all its risks against currency fluctuations. As a result, the forex variations are mostly of mark-to-market nature, which is recoverable through sales or GRM in next quarters and hence have cash and earning neutral impact during the full financial year.
For the quarter, the refinery processed 5.14 metric million tonnes (MMT) of
crude, up 15% in Q1 FY14 over Q1 FY13. The refinery continues to function at
over its nameplate capacity of 20 MMTPA for the last four consecutive quarters
with all units stabilized. During the quarter, the refinery operated at 103% of
its capacity.
Share of ultra heavy crude in refinery’s crude diet rose to 56% in the
reporting quarter from 48% in the same period last year. Overall, the refinery processed
92% of heavy and ultra heavy crude in Q1 FY14.
Production of valuable middle and light distillates share in the overall crude
slate improved to 84% in Q1 FY14, from 82% in Q1 FY13 with the capability to
produce Euro IV and V grade products.
Talking on the results, Mr L K Gupta, Managing Director and CEO, Essar
Oil,said, “The refinery has demonstrated excellent operating performance with a
very strong focus on safety and has consistently outperformed the targeted
benchmark IEA margins. Going forward, we are looking to further strengthen our
retail business as the deregulation of diesel is eventually in sight based on
regular increase in the retail prices.”
Mr Suresh Jain, CFO, Essar Oil, said, “The quarter was marked by rupee

rupee term loans into equivalent foreign currency debt of $340 million through
ECBs / swaps, taking our total dollarized debt to $821 million, in line with
RBI approval. Besides providing interest saving, this also enhances our
liquidity position.”
Optima Plus project
Essar Oil is undertaking a series of low capex and short gestation optimization
projects across its refinery and marketing value chain under the banner of
Optima Plus, which upon completion would provide a GRM uplift of about $1-1.5
per barrel over a period of next three years. These projects include setting up
one more hydrogen manufacturing unit and a conversion of existing VGO into more
valuable distillates.

Marketing operations
Essar Oil continues to focus on the domestic market, with domestic sales
contributing about 70% to its revenues during the quarter. The company has re-entered
the bulk diesel market, which recently was deregulated.
The recent move of government towards full deregulation of auto fuels will create value for our retail business. The company sees great potential in retail for value creation as the country moves towards deregulation of diesel. Essar Oil has about 1400 retail outlets across the nation, with another 200 more in various stages of commissioning, and is now considering further expansion plans in view of reasonable certainty of deregulation of diesel in future
With two ALPG and CNG pumps opened during the quarter, 32 Essar Oil pumps now
offer multi fuel options to customers.
Exploration and Production (E and P)
At Essar Oil’s flagship Raniganj CBM block, current gas production is around
100,000 standard cubic metres per day (scm/d). The company has completed
drilling 165 wells. Stage III environment clearance for 618 wells has been
received. Production is expected to reach 3 million scm/d by next year.
With the new gas price regime kicking in from April 01, 2014, gas price is expected to be much better from current $4.2 / mmbtu. We see this as a welcome reform by the GOI, which would boost investments in the E&P sector followed by ramp up in production, curb expensive imports, promote exploration and increase government revenues. This will also be positive for E&P companies as their profitability increases and also the new gas fields will become viable.
Essar Oil board today approved the appointment of Mr Prashant Ruia as the Non Executive Chairman of the company, taking over from Mr Shashi Ruia, who steps down. Mr Prashant Ruia, 44, is also the Chairman of Essar Energy Plc, the parent company of Essar Oil.
ESSAR OIL SHOWS INTEREST IN SETTING UP PROJECT IN BENGAL
has shown interest in setting up its third coal-bed methane (CBM) project in the Asansol-Ranigunj belt in West Bengal, state's industry minister Partha Chatterjee said today. The company would invest Rs 5,2000.000 Millions for the project, Chatterjee told reporters here.
He asked company representatives who met him to furnish a proposal and submit it to the government. Chatterjee said Saroj Poddar of Texmaco had also called on him during the day for a food processing unit at Sankrail in Howrah. He said cement major ACC was ready with its plant in the state and it was expected to be inaugurated during the month.
SUPREME COURT DECIDES ON ESSAR OIL GUJARAT SALES TAX MATTER
Honourable Supreme Court passed a judgement in the Gujarat Sales Tax case, directing Essar Oil to pay the balance sales tax dues in installments over two years. The balance dues of Rs 51650.000 Millions are now payable in eight quarterly installments beginning January 2, 2013.
