INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India’s current account deficit narrowed in the quarter ended September as government measures to curb imports, especially gold, kicked in.  The current account deficit, the excess of a country’s imports of goods and services over exports, narrowed to $ 5.2 billion from $ 21 billion in the year ago period, according to provisional Reserve Bank of India data. Finance Minister P. Chidambaram said the CAD for the year will be less than $ 60 billion or 3 per cent of GDP and the latest data suggests the government may achieve the target.

 

India was ranked 94th among the world’s most corrupt nations list. Denmark and New Zealand topped as the cleanest while Somalia emerged as the most corrupt.

 

India’s services sector activity witnessed a moderate improvement in November over the previous month, even while indicating the fifth successive monthly contraction, according the HSBC survey.

 

$53 million estimated losses suffered by India due to phishing attacks during the third quarter, according to a study by RSA. India ranks fourth in the list of nations hit by phishing attacks. The US remained at the top of the charts. Phishing is the process of acquiring information such as user names, passwords and credit card details by sending e-mails disguised as official mails.

 

Rs.4080 million worth of mobile-phone-based transactions by July 2013 compared to Rs.260 million in September, 2012, according to Deloitte report. The number of transactions has shot up from 94000 to 701000.

 

India aims to earn Rs.400000 million from the bandwidth auction set for January. The merger and acquisition guidelines, cleared by a group of ministers, will be out before the auction begins so that players can make informed decisions on the auctions.

OPERATIONS

 

As you are aware, that the Company is setting up a 2.51 MTPA integrated Steel and Ductile Iron (Dl) Pipe project, at Siyaljori village, in Bokaro District, in the state of Jharkhand, which is about 22 kms from Bokaro city, a well-developed industrial town of Jharkhand, the plant will produce;

One of the Blast Furnaces (350 M3) out of the three, has commenced operation of pig iron in September, 2010. The operation of coke oven plant is continuing and sinter plant has also started operations. RebarMill is also operational.  Operation of Steel Melt Shop (SMS) has also begun which has resulted into production of billet and Re-bars. The lists of un its under operations and under test are given in the Management Discussion and Analysis chapter as annexed to this report. Presently the Company is selling pig iron, and TMT bars in the open market.

 

Company's plant is at its advance stage of completion and its operations are currently in a nascent stage. Due to a variety of technical reasons, the plant has undergone improvements and changes which will in turn benefit the operations of the Company in the long run.

 

The target completion date of the balance facilities have been extended by few months. The main reason for the delay was due to sudden decrease in availability of Chinese manpower on account of change in guidelines issued by the Central Government of India on Visa Policy, restricting the Chinese manpower with work visa. This was beyond the control of Company's management. However, the Company made significant efforts to mitigate the effect of this Force Majeure situation with the following alternative plans;

 

- Appointment of local Sub-contractors underthe supervision of Chinese Contractors.

 

- Reducing the scope of Chinese Contractors and offloading the same to Indian Contractors.

 

Subsequently, the Central Government of India has allowed work permits to a specified number of Chinese manpower, since then the work at the site is going on smoothly. The Company is confident of achieving the revised completion target in the current financial year.

 

In addition to the above the delay in tie-up of additional loans from the bankers delayed the implementation of various modules.

 

The company is pursuing following two loan proposals:

 

1) Loan against Securitization of Receivables for Rs. 22000.000 Millions. The Company has applied for Securitisation Loan in 1st week of September 2011 and envisaged to complete the same by March 2012. However, the Company received the full sanction from the Lenders in February 2013. The Company had raised this loan from various banks by Securitizing future receivables from the sale of Dl Pipes and Pig Iron. A part of the proceeds from the said loan has been utilized towards payment of installments to the lenders and part towards the Project.

 

2) Capacity Enhancement Loan of Rs. 8240.000 Millions – The Company had approached to various lenders for the capacity enhancement Loan in November 2011. The Company has received over 80% of sanctions under the said loan and has executed the Common Loan Agreement pending full tie up. The proposals for the sanction of balance loan are at an advance stage of approval with other banks and the Company is hopeful of completion of the same very soon. The proceeds from the said loan would be utilized towards completion of the balance facilities.

ELECTROSTEEL STEELS BETTING ON CHINESE-MADE PLANT

Mar 12, 2013

 

With most companies in the domestic steel sector struggling amid rising debts, slowing demand and scarce raw materials, saving Rs 4,250 crore in the setting up of a new steel plant is significant. Equally important is completing the construction of the plant and commissioning it within five years, especially when big names in the sector have nothing to show for projects they signed in 2005.

 

Interestingly, there is a ‘foreign hand’ in this twin achievements of Kolkata-based Electrosteel Castings Group, whose unit Electrosteel Steels is operating a new plant in Bokaro, the industrial district of Jharkhand. The company roped in Chinese steel major Laiwu Steel Group to construct the plant and maintain it till production is ramped up to capacity (this could take up to two years). Ninety-five percent of the equipment was imported from China. The steel plant is not just the first in India to be built entirely with Chinese collaboration, but also probably the first to be constructed by a Chinese workforce—almost 2,000 Chinese workers built it. The plant has a capacity of 2.5 million tonnes a year. “We will add another million tonnes of capacity,” says AV Shah, chief sales and marketing officer, Electrosteel Steels. 

 

“Traditionally, Indian steel companies have relied on German suppliers for equipment and technology to set up plants. Had we followed the same route, the equipment alone would have cost us at least 30 percent more,” Shah says. The Chinese are also known for “fast execution of projects”. “If not for almost a year that we lost because of the work being held up, we would have completed the project much earlier,” he says. Work had been stalled due to “visa problems” faced by the Chinese workers.

 

Not far from the Electrosteel plant is the site of the proposed mega project of ArcelorMittal, the world’s largest steelmaker. Though the company signed an agreement in 2005 with the local government to set up the plant, the project is facing delays in acquiring land. Shah says that although Electrosteel acquired about 2,000 acres for its project, the plant needs less than 700 acres, which is less than what a plant usually needs. 

 

“Indian steelmakers have been sourcing equipment from China for sometime now,” says AS Firoz, chief economist, Joint Plant Committee, a research body set up under the ministry of steel. But the purchase—made to reduce the overall debt burden—has been limited to a blast furnace or a sinter, and not a complete plant. “Although we appreciate the lower capex per tonne, benefits will be known once the plant is fully operational,” wrote Bhavesh Chauhan and Vinay Rachh of Angel Broking in a note in late 2012. Right now, only one of the three blast furnaces is fully operational. 

 

This could well be the litmus test for Electrosteel and its Chinese partner. As experience from the power sector has shown—rising use of Chinese equipment was marred by complaints of faults—all eyes will be focussed on this Bokaro plant until all its units function at full capacity.

 

 

BANKS, ELECTROSTEEL IN TALKS TO TIE UP FUNDS FOR STEEL PROJECT

 Mumbai, February 24, 2013

 

 

A State Bank of India-led lender group is in talks with Kolkata-based Electrosteel Steels Limited (ESL) to tie up funds for its steel project in Jharkhand which has seen delay in commissioning of its operations.

 

ESL saw a delay in commencement of commercial operations and was hit by cost escalation. The company has a 2.51 million-tonne integrated steel and ductile iron pipe project and a 120 Mw captive power plant, at Bokaro, Jharkhand. Net loss more than doubled to Rs 1580.000 Millions in April-December 2012 as against Rs 730.000 Millions in April-December 2011.

 

Binod Khaitan, chairman of ESL, said the steel industry was passing through a phase of slowing demand and a rise in costs. This new project got into a problem due to delay in commencement of operations. Beside SBI, the other bankers to the company are Bank of India, Bank of Baroda, Allahabad Bank and Central Bank of India.

 

The lenders have exposure for a little over Rs 75000.000 Millions.

 

A senior bank official said this is not a restructuring, involving a rate cut or payment holiday. It involves a fresh line of credit, he said. The project remains viable. SBI’s exposure to the iron and steel sector was Rs 565310.000 Millions at the end of December 2012. The country’s largest lender has restructured loans worth Rs 52670.000 Millions given to steel companies. Its gross non-performing assets in iron and steel units were Rs 35660.000 Millions.

 

In August 2012, CARE Ratings had downgraded ESLfrom ‘BBB’ to ‘BB-’. ESL revised the project capacity to 2.51 million tonnes annually from 2.2 mtpa and decided on an operational revamp to achieve better efficiency. Hence, the project cost rose by Rs 22000.000 Millions to Rs 95620.000 Millions. The cost overrun due to delay in project commissioning added to the rise in outlay, said CARE.

 

It is to part-fund the cost increase by securitising future receivables originating from the DI pipes and pig iron division. Khaitan said ESL’s promoter company, Electrosteel Castings, had also infused capital in the company.
