Comments :

The company was incorporated in November 1985. It was promoted by a technocraft team comprising Mr. Promod Chaudhari and associates in 2007, Praj commissioned its manufacturing facility in the special economic zone in Kandla (Gujarat).

 

Praj is in the business of process design, engineering, fabrication, and commissioning of bio-fuels plants, brewery plants, waste water treatment plants, bio-consumables and process equipment and systems.

 

The rating reflect praj’s established marked position in the project and process engineering business catering mainly to the ethanol process technology, plants and equipment and brewery plant and equipment.

 

The rating also factor in the company’s strong financial risk profile marked by comfortable capital structure and healthy liquidity.

 

Further the company is listed on BSE and NSE. Price quoted at BSE is held at 94.60 against its face value of INR 2.

 

As per the 3rd quarterly results of December 2017, the company has achieved revenue of 1911 million and has clocked net profit of INR 67.400 million.

 

These rating strength is partially offset by company’s exposure to cyclicality in the capital goods industry, and to project related risks.

 

Trade relations are fair. Payment terms are regular and as per commitments.

 

In view of aforesaid, the company can be considered good for normal business dealings at usual trade terms and conditions.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Fiscal 2016-17 was an exciting year for The Company as it marked an inflection point in the journey of 2nd generation ethanol technology development. They unveiled India’s first integrated 2nd generation smart bio-refinery demonstration plant for biofuels and renewable chemicals, underscoring Praj’s technology leadership in the bio-energy space. They are confident that this will set us on the growth path, given that sustainable fuels is need of the hour.

 

From the standpoint of financial performance, they are glad that the year was steady despite the flux in external business environment. Revenues for the fiscal stood at INR 9552.000 Million, with PBT and PAT at INR 675.000 Million and INR 446.000 Million respectively. Domestic business constituted a larger share of 75%, as against 59% over the previous fiscal.

 

Order intake for the year stands at INR 9970.000 Million and with 62% share, ethanol business continues to be a major contributor. Also, domestic business forms a larger portion of this with 73% share.

 

Order backlog as of 31st March, 2017 is INR 9350.000 Million, with international orders constituting 44% and ethanol business forming 57%. As a prudent practice, they have removed non-moving orders worth INR 1100.000 Million from the pending order backlog.

 

As capital formation starts taking place, The Company is in good stead to leverage their preparedness and step up the performance. Following paragraphs cover performance in each business unit in details.

 

 

BIOENERGY BUSINESS - ETHANOL PLANTS AND EQUIPMENT

 

They have to take into account Sugar Year 2015-16 (September 2015 - October 2016) while discussing FY 2016-17 for two reasons – (a) owing to an overlap of 7 months between the two and (b) 70% ethanol produced in India is derived from molasses feedstock, a by-product of sugar mill.

 

Sugar year 2015-16 was a cornerstone year for the Indian ethanol program. For the first time, India achieved 4.15% blend ratio against the targeted 5%. Indian sugar mills supplied 1.1 bn liter ethanol, a commendable 85% fulfilment of the mandate.

 

Owing to the drought situation in 2015-16, it is observed that some major sugar producing states like Maharashtra and Karnataka have lower cane production for the crushing season of 2016-17, resulting in early closure of the season for sugar mills.

 

On the other hand, cane crop is estimated to go up in Uttar Pradesh by 10% and in Tamilnadu by 12%, as compared to the previous sugar year. Thus, reduction in ethanol production caused by Maharashtra and Karnataka will be partly compensated by Uttar Pradesh and Tamilnadu. For the year 2016-17, approximately 60 mn liter ethanol from Bihar will also be available for the blending program.

 

Oil marketing companies have floated tenders to procure 2.8 bn liter fuel ethanol for the period April-November 2017. Looking at the latest estimates of cane production in the country, approximately 800 mn ethanol will be available for the blending program. This translates to 2.6% blend ratio at petrol consumption of 30 bn liter. To achieve the aspired 10% and eventually 20% blend ratio, India has to look at alternate feedstock for ethanol production, in the form of abundantly available agri-residue.

 

The year gone by saw several important developments concerning 2nd generation ethanol in India, starting with The World Biofuel Day celebration held on 10th August, 2016. Ministry of Oil, Petroleum & Natural Gas (MOPNG) is undertaking various initiatives to promote clean energy, including ethanol, with the intent to curtail oil imports by 10% by 2022. Ethanol directly addresses the GHG emission caused by transport sector while helping India meet the GHG reduction as agreed in the Nationally Determined Contributions at climate change summit COP 21 held at Paris in 2015.

 

An eco-system for 2nd generation ethanol is in the making in the country. As a part of this drive, 10-12 numbers of 2nd generation ethanol projects are expected to get finalized, with average capex of INR 6000-6500 Million each. The Company is at the forefront of these developments. Indian Oil Corporation Limited and Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited have chosen Praj as technology partner for three plants. The MOUs have been signed to this effect and locations have been finalized. Each of these plants will have the capacity to produce 100,000 liter ethanol per day.

 

An important milestone achieved by The Company during the year is the start-up and completion of its and India’s first Integrated “Smart Bio-refinery” Demonstration plant in Maharashtra. The bio-refinery was inaugurated at the hands of Mr. Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister Road Transport, Highways & Shipping on 7th May 2017. This first of its kind 1 mn liter per annum capacity plant can process a variety of agri-residue like rice & wheat straw, cane trash, cotton stalk, corn cobs & stover, bagasse etc and is equipped with a zero liquid discharge system. With this, The Company is prepared to deliver an end-to-end solution for setting up 2nd generation ethanol plants.

 

In the 1st generation ethanol space, international markets remained sombre in the year gone by as a result of volatility in commodity prices. In such a scenario, important geographies like Argentina, Colombia, EU, Thailand, Philippines have maintained their blending mandates.

 

Greenfield projects remain the Company’s mainstay, with acceleration coming from modernization and retrofit segment. In addition to fuel ethanol plants, certain regions offer opportunities for beverage and industrial grade ethanol. South America, South East Asia, Africa continue to remain strongholds for The Company.

 

In the modernization and retro fit segment, The Company has commercialized several newer technologies that enhance the operational efficiency of existing ethanol plants.

 

 

PRAJ HIPURITY SYSTEMS (PHS)

 

Stricter US FDA norms, Indian pharma companies gearing up for biosimilar opportunities are the major drivers for Praj HiPurity business. For this segment, baseline comes from conventional high purity water systems, whereas acceleration is provided by the value added services. With increased scope of work and value addition, this becomes an important piece of business in the overall growth plans.

 

The Company’s approach on stepping up internationalization and expertise in modular process systems is leading to significant improvement in the exports order book and revenues for the segment.

 

 

ENGINEERING BUSINESSES

 

BREWERY PLANTS AND EQUIPMENT

 

 

With annual sales of 300 million cases of beer, India continues to be the focus market for top global brewers. The segment is driven by younger population, increasing middle class and changing demographics of the drinking population. Brewers are responding to these factors by strengthening their portfolios, introducing newer brands and premium products. The segment is expected to expand 5-7% in the current fiscal, driven by premium products. States like Andhra Pradesh and Telangana continue to offer opportunities due to division of the excise board.

 

The industry faces challenges in the form of imposed liquor ban in some states and increase in excise duty. With the merger of SAB Miller and AB Inbev, Indian beer industry is going through another round of consolidation. These events have reduced immediate prospects of capacity addition. Some expansion projects got stalled as brewers are taking a guarded posture before making capital commitments as a result of sluggish market demand.

 

In such scenario, brewery segment continues to report a steady performance. The Company maintains its market share in the Indian brewery market.

 

 

CRITICAL PROCESS EQUIPMENT AND SYSTEMS

 

Orchestrated efforts of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and other producers to tackle over supply are gradually rebalancing crude prices, resulting in an upward trend in the past couple of quarters. The prices have averaged higher so far this year at around $55 a barrel. Resurgence in prices will bring the global exploration and refining sector back in investment range

 

Coming to the home front, in addition to implementation of ethanol blending mandate, India is also working on efficiency improvement in oil refining and automobile sectors.

 

The Critical Process Equipment & Systems business unit of The Company caters to the oil and gas sector by engineering, designing and manufacturing equipment and skids. In the financial year gone by, it has won orders from leading oil and gas companies, in India and also overseas.

 

In addition, The Company has identified and is pursuing exciting opportunities with the help of a special task force in various areas like bio-refinery products, chemicals and skids.

 

WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEMS

 

The Company is following a selective approach in this segment. It has always maintained focus on challenging industrial waste water with high complexity and continues to do so. This allows significant value add to the operations of clients with reduce, recycle, reuse and zero liquid discharge systems.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

With a conducive ecosystem in place for biofuels, energy self-sufficiency and technology backed solutions for agri-processing, energy and environment, India is definitely one of the brightest spots in the global economy at this point.

 

The Company has prepared itself to address the opportunities and challenges equally. In India and emerging markets like Africa, South East Asia and South America continue to remain strongholds. In ethanol business, 2nd generation ethanol technology is in the delivery stage and 1st generation continues to be the mainstay, in addition to modernization and retrofit segment.

 

The Company maintains the leadership position in domestic brewery industry, in spite of the challenging situation caused by imposed liquor bans in some states.

 

Praj HiPurity Systems Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Company is one of the growth areas with an established name and clientele in the pharmaceutical industry. Focus here remains on enhanced scope of work and internationalization.

 

As crude prices come back in the investment range, Critical Process Equipment & Systems business unit is poised to address the opportunities. The Company has maintained its focus on water and waste treatment business and is selectively pursuing opportunities in the industrial sector.
