PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS

 

SODA ASH

 

The Global Soda Ash market which was around 52 million tons in 2012 is estimated to be approximately 54 million metric tons in 2013 against a capacity of about 65 Million MT.

 

Global demand for Soda Ash grew 2.8% annually over the last 5 years and is expected to grow 5% annually through 2017. The projected growth for this year is 4% with most of the growth expected to be in China, India, and South America. World operating rates will not improve due to continue over capacity.

 

Due to the global cost disparities, relative production costs will be a key issue for the soda ash industry in the future. Though demand for Soda Ash remained better during the year, price pressure from key inputs such as salt and energy weighed heavily.

 

Consumption of soda ash per person is expected to register healthy rise in the next few years with China leading the rankings with consumption from 10.85 kilograms in 2007 to an expected 12.00 kilograms in 2013. China is likely to add at least 2 Million MT capacities every year on the back of huge infrastructure investments.

 

The manufacturing and processing costs for producing soda ash from trona are more cost competitive than other manufacturing techniques partly because of the cost associated with procuring the material needed for synthetic production. In addition, trona-based production consumes less energy. The average cost of production per ton of soda ash (before freight and logistics costs) from trona is approximately one-third to one-half the cost per ton of soda ash from synthetic production. The future depends upon soda ash prices. Soda Ash prices fluctuate according to the demand supply situation in the global market, China in particular.

 

Due to depressed conditions prevailing in the Indian Economy, Soda Ash demand witnessed a flat growth in 2013-14. Market feedback suggests other than Detergents; all other consuming segments lead by Glass recorded lower growth. Most affected sectors are container glass and flat glass, which are under pressure because of over capacity and slow growth in demand. They are under pressure and continue to struggle with sharp decline in  sales and stock pile up and also their financial status is still a cause of concern.

Though reduced, imports continue to flow in high volumes. It is expected that on the back of improved GDP growth projected and growth in Glass (Construction/ Automobiles) and Detergents (FMCG penetration and growth) Soda Ash demand will continue to witness a reasonable growth. While domestic demand in 2013-14 has been flat, demand growth of 3 to 4% expected in the coming year 2014-15.

 

The Indian Soda Ash market constitutes of two varieties – Light (used in detergent industry) & Dense (used in Glass industry), with a share of 60% and 40% respectively. Total installed capacity in India was 3.1 Million MT. With an estimated production of about 2.5 Million MT in last financial year (2013- 14) the capacity utilization was of only 80%.

 

The total size of the Indian soda ash market is about 2.7 Million MT and almost all the major industry players are located in the state of Gujarat due to the closeness and ready availability of the main raw materials namely limestone and salt.

 

At present your Soda Ash plant has a capacity of 0.850 Million MTPA. During the financial year 2013-14 your company has produced 0.712 Million MT soda ash. This year, the Company has also achieved highest domestic sales i.e. 6.44 lacs MT and total sales of Soda Ash is 0.671 Million MT including exports.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

REVIEW OF ECONOMY

 

As per the Advanced Estimates released by the Central Statistical Organization (CSO) in February 2014, the growth in GDP during 2013-14 is estimated at 4.9% as compared to a growth rate of 4.5% in 2012-13, a slightly faster pace than in the previous year, mainly on an improved performance in the agriculture and allied sectors. However, the CSO had lowered growth for 2012-13 to 4.5% in its revised estimates from an earlier provisional forecast of 5%.

 

The farm sector, which accounts for nearly 14% of GDP, is estimated to grow 4.6% in 2013-14, sharply higher from the previous year’s 1.4% growth. This augurs well for the rural economy, which is expected to shield overall growth. But, a deep slowdown in the manufacturing and mining sectors continued, prompted calls for measures to reverse the trend.
