INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India’s current account deficit for the fiscal third quarter ended September 2013 narrowed to $4.2 billion or 0.9 % of the gross domestic product from $31.9 billion or 6.5 % of GDP a year earlier, thanks to a pick-up in exports and moderation in gold imports. Manufacturing activity and new orders in India showed their strongest growth in a year in February. The news comes as a relief after data showed Asia’s third largest economy grew by a slower-than-expected 4.7 % annually in the three months through December. The HSBC Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index which gauges the business activity of India’s factories but not its’ utilities, rose to 52.5 in February, its highest in a year from 51.4 in January. Overall new orders for factory goods which rose to a one-year high of 54.9 contributed to the surge. China has emerged as India’s biggest trading partner in the current financial year replacing the United Arab Emirates and pushing it to the third spot. India-China trade has reached $49.5 billion with a 8.7 % share in India’s total trade. The US comes second at $46 billion with 8.1 % share during the first nine months of the current financial year.

 

The Reserve Bank of India has granted an additional nine months to the public to exchange currency notes printed before 2005 including Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denominations, pushing the deadline to January 1, 2015. A day before dates for the Lok Sabha polls were announced, the government decided to hike interest rates on fixed deposit schemes offered by post offices up to 0.2 per cent. The new rates will be effective April, 1. The Supreme Court will resume hearing on March, 11 Nokia’s appeal against a ruling over transferring ownership of its local mobile phones plant which is the subject of a tax dispute to Microsoft Corp.

 

In the last days of the current Government, another scam has surfaced. The defence ministry has ordered a probe into Hindustan Aeronautics Limited’s contracts from Britain’s Rolls-Royce Holdings worth at least $ 1.2 billion. The Central Bureau of Investigation will look into allegations that over $80 million was paid in kickbacks in a deal signed in 2011. India has asked Boeing Co. to find a solution for problems with state-owned Air India’s 787 Dreamliners. The aircraft has experienced a series of malfunctions since its debut in 2011.

GENERAL INFORMATION

 

Subject is a publicly listed Company, incorporated on March 13, 1957 as The English Electric Company of India (Private) Limited with its registered office at NCT of Delhi and Haryana. The Company’s operations encompass the operations of some of the erstwhile companies (inter-alia including the operations of The General Electric Company of India Limited formed in the year 1911) which merged into the Company.

 

The Company has been building the power transmission and distribution infrastructure to support economic growth in the country. It has a portfolio of products, solutions and services, comprising the entire range of transmission equipment up to Extra and Ultra High Voltages (765 kV and beyond) including air-insulated switchgear (AIS) and locally manufactured power transformers and gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). It also provides power electronics solutions (HVDC, FACTS) to create super highways and offers highly advanced power

Management Smart Grid solutions for transmission and distribution including renewable energies integration.

 

During the year 2009, ALSTOM Holdings, France and Schneider Electric Industries SAS entered into consortium agreement to acquire the global T&D business of AREVA SA, the then holding Company, such that transmission business would be allocated to ALSTOM group and the distribution business to Schneider group of companies. During the previous period, the demerger of the distribution business of the Company was completed. The name of the Company was changed to ALSTOM T&D India Limited from AREVA T&D India Limited on January 31, 2012.

 

 

PERFORMANCE REVIEW

 

YEAR OF CONSOLIDATION AND RETAINING MARKET LEADERSHIP

 

The Indian economy continued to face challenges in the year gone by. The economic headwinds, delays with reforms, mounting SEB losses, hurdles in clearance of power projects and lack of investments had dampened optimism in the Industry thus negatively impacting the overall Transmission and Distribution market in India. The performance of the Company may be considered satisfactory during the year and seen in the face of difficult and trying conditions in a contracted market for Company’s products and services, given the overall slowdown of the economy. Notwithstanding, the Company performed rather well and achieved its highest ever order book while retaining its market leadership for the fifth year in a row.

 

During the year 2012-13, the Company significantly improved its market position in the Utility Segment and consolidated its position in Industry and Infrastructure Segments. Overall, the Company could achieve a balanced portfolio of orders from all the key segments of the market.

 

During the year 2012-13, the Company has been conscious of margins, while selecting on orders so as to improve the level of profitability. Due to poor levels of margins, the Company did not pick-up orders worth over Rs. 11 billion that was available in the market.

 

 

STRONG GROWTH IN HV AND UHV, CONTINUOUS GROWTH IN UTILITY, COME BACK IN HVDC

 

The Company has been at the forefront in making significant contribution towards building and expansion of India’s Transmission Infrastructure. While their Country has achieved new heights by introducing 765 kV EHV technology in the Indian electrical grid and making it as the backbone of power transmission, the Company, ALSTOM T and D India, actually delivered and commissioned several of these products and solutions. The Company introduced global technology in India by localising the complete range of HV and UHV products, way back in 2009, by building world class factories to deliver complete products and solutions for customers in India. It will not be out of place to mention that out of fifty 765 kV substations in India, twenty nine of such substations will have products with Alstom Technology.

 

Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (Power Grid), world’s second largest transmission utility, took initiative to introduce 800 kV HVDC to strengthen the electrical grid’s stability as well as to improve the power flow. By design HVDC, is the technology to transfer bulk power over long distances.

 

The Company has a noteworthy presence in the country in HVDC technology having supplied three back to back HVDC projects, which helped interconnection of India’s regional grids of East, West, North and South. ALSTOM T and D UK, in association with the Company, has been awarded a prestigious 800 kV UHVDC contract worth 370 MEuro or approximately Rs. 26 billion by Power Grid, to connect Champa (Chhattisgarh), Central India, to Kurukshetra (Haryana) in Northern India, to manage bulk power transfer of 3,000 MW.

 

About 40% value of the contract will be performed by ALSTOM T and D India, in manufacturing some of the critical products such as converter transformers, 400/ 220 kV gas and air-insulated switchgear and substation equipment, communication and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition systems (SCADA).

 

In the Network Management Segment, the Company secured a large and prestigious order from Power Grid known as NTAMC Project which shall supervise, manage and control the entire National Transmission and Asset Management of Power Grid’s 192 Transmission substations ranging from 220 kV to 765 kV voltage level.

 

ALSTOM T and D India also secured an up-gradation contract for the Load Dispatch Centre of Tamil Nadu from TANTRANSCO (Tamil Nadu Transmission Company).

 

The Company also secured the upgradation contract for Power Grid’s South Regional Load Dispatch Centre confirming Alstom’s leadership position in the Network Management System in India.

 

The Transmission Grid is increasingly witnessing the emergence of BOOT (Build, Own, Operate and Transfer) based projects. The Company has successfully won two contracts for UP’s Transmission System at 765 kV level, from the developer M/s MEIL, Hyderabad. The scope of these contracts include 765 kV turnkey AIS substation as well as 400 kV GIS products with associated Substation Automation and Network Management products and solutions.

 

North-East part of India is also enhancing the Transmission Grid in the Region. AEGCL, Utility of North- East, placed a large turnkey 132 kV substation contract on the Company.

This project is being funded by Asian Development Bank (ADB).

 

 

CONSOLIDATION IN POWER GENERATION, INDUSTRY AND INFRASTRUCTURE

 

The Transmission and Distribution market for Power Generation, Industry and Infrastructure was subdued in 2012-13. Thanks to good position in these segments of the market, the Company could win several orders.

 

Bajaj Hindustan selected the Company for the supply of eBoP (Electrical Balance of Plants) for its Super Critical Power project 3x660MW at Lalitpur.

 

Reliance Power selected the Company for eBoP solution for their Solar project in Doorsar.

 

In Hydro, the Company won the contracts for supply of GIS and Generating Transformers for the Tehri Hydro Power Plant.

 

NTPC’s Nabinagar JV has selected the Company for Power Transformers and Reactors for its 3x660MW Power Project.

 

In addition, the Company also won several medium and small size orders from its customers in Industry and Infrastructure Segments.

 

 

HV AND EHV PRODUCTS ACROSS ALL MARKET SEGMENTS

 

The Company continued its success in winning orders for solutions and products ranging from 66 kV to 765 kV from Power Grid and other leading customers. the Company won orders from Power Grid for supply, erection, testing and commissioning of 20 Nos. of 80 MVAR Reactors for 765 kV substations located at Raichur, Meerut, Kurnool and Varanasi.

 

The Company also won another large contract for 20 Nos. of 80 MVAR 765 kV Reactors from LandT for the 765 kV AIS substation at Phagi in Rajasthan. The Transmission Utility of Maharashtra MSETCL awarded a large contract for 7 Nos. of 500 MVA Transformers and 4 Nos. of 80 MVAR 765 kV Reactors for their 765 kV substation at Aurangabad, Maharashtra.

 

The Company has advanced technology shunt reactor products, with air-gap cores and magnetic shield that ensure low vibration and minimal noise levels. These reactors, once installed in the grid, will strengthen the power transmission networks in Eastern, Northern and Western regions of India. Apart from HVDC and 765 kV AC domain, the Company also maintained its leadership in the conventional transmission market i.e. 400 kV air insulated substations and won several prestigious contracts.

The Company continued the trend of being the first mover by successfully commissioning one bay of a 220 kV substation with its patented optical instrument transformer, as the step towards India’s first digital substation. The contract for this substation, which is located at Jambuva, Gujarat, was awarded by the state transmission utility - Gujarat Electric Transmission Corporation (GETCO). This is the first of its kind installation in India that uses Alstom’s range of Compact Optical Sensor Intelligence (COSI) products manufactured at Phoenix, USA. This product is locally supported by Alstom’s Instrument Transformer manufacturing unit in Hosur and Substation Automation manufacturing unit located at Pallavaram, Chennai.

 

The COSI range enables the digitalisation of current and voltage signals through Optical Ethernet Connectivity, enhancing accuracy, significantly reducing the use of copper cables and strengthening the reliability of the system. It also facilitates current transformer sizing calculations. Being SCADA ready, it brings Smart Grid Intelligence to the Substation by allowing operational data exchange with the load dispatch centre. The installation is simplified due to its light weight. It is operationally safe, and the absence of oil and SF6 ensures no adverse environmental impact on end-of-life disposal.

 

The Company is leading the efforts in India in delivering digital substation solutions to all its Customers. ALSTOM T and D India’s Digital technology solutions got off to an excellent start with the successful delivery of the 1200 kV digital instrument transformer and 1200 kV disconnector for the 1200 kV Bina Test substation being built by Power Grid.

 

 

IMPROVING GRID STABILITY AND EFFICIENCY

 

In another significant achievement, Alstom Grid Finland, in association with the Company, was awarded a turnkey contract by Power Grid, for providing Fixed Series Compensation (FSC) package for 400 kV Wardha - Aurangabad Transmission Network. Thus, the Company is well positioned to meet the emerging demand of upgradation of the existing transmission infrastructure in the country.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

MARKET OVERVIEW

 

The year 2012-13 was modest for the T and D Market. For the first time, since 2003, the T and D Market in India shrank by 9-10%, due to fall in demand, led by low investment in the power segment, in industry and  infrastructure and impacted by delays in project execution by the Customers.

 

Accumulated State Electricity Boards’ (SEBs) losses of Rs. 2.35 trillion has put deep stress across the Generation and T and D value chain, deeply impacting the cash flow of the GENCOs and T and D suppliers. Consequently, several private Independent Power Projects (IPPs) are in financial trouble and are, therefore, shy to invest in new power projects. Lack of fuel supply, issues of land acquisition and delayed environmental clearances have put additional stress on the power sector. 50GW of Power Generation Capacity (24% of Capacity) is stranded due to fuel supply issues and lack of demand from SEB’s. Thus, the investment climate, in power sector, continues to be leak and uncertain. Most of the new projects are either delayed or shelved. The year also witnessed their Customers constantly struggling with execution of their projects due to tough challenges in land acquisition, fuel supply, environmental clearances as well as delayed financial closure.

 

On the positive side, India added 55,000 MW of additional generation capacity to the Grid during the 11th plan period. The T and D Infrastructure is yet to be fully built to transmit this additional generation. Thus, it creates opportunities for the Company for the year 2013-14 and beyond.

 

Government of India has also finalized the financial restructuring plan (FRP) to help the SEBs to restructure their financial debts and clean up their balance sheets. Eight major SEBs have agreed, in principle, to go for FRP in 2013-14.

 

 

BUSINESS PROJECTIONS

 

The overall business environment is expected to remain challenging. Pricing pressure on margins and cash flow would be amongst key challenges. The Company having regard to excellent order book and expectation of easing of constraints is confident that it will continue to deliver value to its shareholders and other stake-holders. \

 

 

FINANCE

 

Finance played a pivotal role in bringing greater focus on Company’s cash collection in a cash-starved business environment. As a result of this focus and pooling of resources, direct approach with ultimate customers, lending agencies, bankers, securing improved terms and security of payments and indeed valuable support of its suppliers, the Company improved its working capital. the Company’s net cash generation from Operating activities also improved to Rs. 4 billion during the year 2012-13 (Rs. 2.5 billion during the 15 months of the previous period) with reduction in overall borrowings by Rs. 1.8 billion.

 

The Company also completed its ambitious plan of streamlining its financial accounting platform, with all businesses now on a common ERPALT@ IS systems.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

Overall, Transmission sector outlook is positive as well as challenging, driven by Power Grid and SEB led investments, to evacuate/ transport power generated by capacity added in the 11th Plan.

 

The Company, with strong order book of around Rs. 62 billion and balanced portfolio of products and projects, is well placed to retain its leadership position in the Transmission sector.

 

Investments in HVDC and Grid stability equipments are likely to increase in the coming years. ALSTOM T and D India, with its existing bouquet of products backed by new investment plans in capacity building and technologies, is focused on extending its customer base and increase its market share in existing as well as in the emerging technologies.

 

The Company, however, recognizes that the market conditions in India would continue to see contraction and pressure on margins in the T and D Sector for some time. Notwithstanding, the Company’s management team remains holistically focused and committed to deliver increased value for its stakeholders.
