INDUSTRY: POWER Power is one of the most critical components of infrastructure crucial for the economic growth and welfare of nations. The existence and development of adequate infrastructure is essential for sustained growth of the Indian economy. India’s power sector is one of the most diversified in the world. Sources of power generation range from conventional sources such as coal, lignite, natural gas, oil, hydro and nuclear power to viable non-conventional sources such as wind, solar, and agricultural and domestic waste. Electricity demand in the country has increased rapidly and is expected to rise further in the years to come. In order to meet the increasing demand for electricity in the country, massive addition to the installed generating capacity is required. In May 2018, India ranked 4th in the Asia Pacific region out of 25 nations on an index that measures their overall power. General Analysis of the economy and its impact: 1) GDP growth After a few challenging years, during which the global economy witnessed stalling growth and intermittent turbulence, 2017 benefitted from the strengthening of a broad based cyclical global recovery which began mid-way through 2016. Global GDP is expected to have picked up to 3 % in 2017 from 2.4 % in 2016, while Global output is estimated to have grown by 3.7 % in 2017, supported by a broad-based recovery, encompassing more than half of the world’s economies. A rebound in trade and investment aided by supportive financing conditions accommodative policies and the moderating impact of weak commodities, has enabled revival and improved business sentiments across both advanced and developing economies. Growth in advanced economies is estimated to have rebounded to 2.3 % on the back of pick up in capital spending, a turnaround in inventories, and improving external demand. India has been responsible for almost 10% of the increase in global energy demand since 2000. 2) Inflation trends: The Indian economy witnessed implementation of major structural reforms during the year, the prominent ones being the implementation of the Goods & Services Tax (GST) and new Indian Bankruptcy code. Teething issues surrounding the uncertainties associate with implementation of such reforms, coupled with continuing pressure from last years, demonetization initiative impacted business sentiments and growth rate during the first half of the fiscal. However, the economy stabilized and started showing early signs of revival during the latter half of the year. Improving global macros, persistent efforts from the government to enhance infrastructure spending and PSU capex coupled with initial signs of revival of the private capex investment cycle is expected to help the country retain its tag of fastest growing large economy in the world. 3) Monetary policy changes and impact: Some of the key demand drivers for Renewable energy include – the Government’s push to supplement conventional vehicles with Electric Vehicles (EV) in the mere future, which is expected to have a larger implication on energy and allied sectors. 4) Impact of global economic trends: The Indian power sector has undergone progressive transformation in recent times marked by substantial growth in capacity addition, introduction of power trading, enhanced Transmission & Distribution (T&D) system resulting in reduced power loss and theft. The accelerated pace of capacity addition over the past few years has led to a situation where in the supply potential is greater than the projected demand – a phenomenon, that has occurred for the first time in the sector’s history. A record capacity of 76.4 GW was added over the last three years. This growth in capacity was on the back of expectation that the demand for electricity will pick up pace in sync with economic growth. Sector Analysis 1) Sector Growth:● ● ● ● ● India is the world's third largest producer and third largest consumer of electricity. Total installed capacity of power stations in India stood at 346.62 Gigawatt (GW) as of November 2018. Renewable power plants constituted 33.60% of total installed capacity. The gross electricity consumption was 1,149 kWh per capita in the year 2017-18. The year 2018 saw robust growth, peak demand grew by 8 per cent to 177 gigawatt (GW), in energy terms the growth was 6.5 per cent since last year. Government initiatives of 24x7 power and power to all households, by March 2019, have reached most people. Many states achieved more than 90 per cent availability of power to its consumers. 2) Contribution to GDP:Indian power sector is undergoing a significant change that has redefined the industry outlook. Sustained economic growth continues to drive electricity demand in India. The Government of India’s focus on attaining ‘Power for all’ to accelerate capacity addition in the country, and the increasing competitive intensity at both the market and supply sides (fuel, logistics, finances, and manpower) is the key. At the same time, the competitive intensity is increasing at both the market and supply sides (fuel, logistics, finances, and manpower). Different measures will improve demand side pull and will see healthy growth in the sector. The only constraint that surfaced last year was coal supply. Therefore, for sustainable growth of the sector, we need to add more renewable capacity, improve fuelsupply chain for coal and gas plants, and efficient utilisation of existing capacity through smart portfolio optimisation by state discoms in long- and short-term. 3) Regulatory Framework: The Government of India has identified power sector as a key sector of focus so as to promote sustained industrial growth. Some initiatives by the Government of India to boost the Indian power sector: As of September 2018, a draft amendment to Electricity Act, 2003 has been introduced. It discusses separation of content & carriage, direct benefit transfer of subsidy, 24*7 Power supply is an obligation, penalisation on violation of PPA, setting up Smart Meter and Prepaid Meters along with regulations related to the same. Ujwal Discoms Assurance Yojana (UDAY) was launched by the Government of India to encourage operational and financial turnaround of State-owned Power Distribution Companies (DISCOMS), with an aim to reduce Aggregate Technical & Commercial (AT&C) losses to 15 per cent by FY19. As of August 2018, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy set solar power tariff caps at Rs 2.50 (US$ 0.04) and Rs 2.68 (US$ 0.04) unit for developers using domestic and imported solar cells and modules, respectively. The Government of India approved National Policy on Biofuels – 2018, the expected benefits of this policy are health benefits, cleaner environment, employment generation, reduced import dependency, boost to infrastructural investment in rural areas and additional income to farmers. 4) Investment Scenario: Between April 2000 and June 2018, the industry attracted US$ 14.18 billion in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), accounting for 3.64 per cent of total FDI inflows in India. Some major investments and developments in the Indian power sector are as follows: In November 2018, Renascent Power Ventures Pte Ltd acquired 75.01 per cent stake in Prayagraj Power Generation Company Limited (PPGCL) for US$ 854.94 million. In August 2018, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co (KKR) acquired Ramky Enviro Engineers Limited for worth US$ 530 million. In April 2018 ReNew Power made the largest M&A deal by acquiring Ostro Energy for US$ 1,668.21 million. 5) Competitive advantage peculiar to the sector: Around 60 per cent of the nation’s generation comes from coal. There has been insufficient supply of domestic coal to thermal power plants and a spike in the price of imported coal. In 2016-17, the price of imported coal was about $30 per tonne and it has reached $55 per tonne in 2018-19. ● India’s rank jumped to 24 in 2018 from 137 in 2014 on World Bank’s Ease of doing business - "Getting Electricity" ranking. ● Energy deficit reduced to 0.7 per cent in FY18 from 4.2 per cent in FY14. ● As of April 28, 2018, 100 per cent village electrification achieved under Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana (DDUGJY). 6) Forecasted sector growth: The Government of India has released its roadmap to achieve 175 GW capacities in renewable energy by 2022, which includes 100 GW of solar power and 60 GW of wind power. The Union Government of India is preparing a 'rent a roof' policy for supporting its target of generating 40 gigawatts (GW) of power through solar rooftop projects by 2022. Coal-based power generation capacity in India, which currently stands at 190.29*GW is expected to reach 330-441 GW by 2040. India could become the world's first country to use LEDs for all lighting needs by 2019, thereby saving Rs 40,000 crore (US$ 6.23 billion) on an annual basis. All the states and union territories of India are on board to fulfil the Government of India's vision of ensuring 24x7 affordable and quality power for all by March 2019, as per the Ministry of Power and New & Renewable Energy, Government of India. Cross-border trade guidelines have been recently issued. The guidelines are favorable for cross-border transactions through exchanges. Things as of now have not been moving as fast in the SAARC region as they are in BBIN (Bangladesh, Bhutan, India and Nepal) region. Many regulations such as re-designing of real time market, ancillary services regulations and linking of DSM prices with exchanges prices have been proposed which, if implemented, will help in absorbing more renewable in the grid.

Around 80% which shows that it is a growing company. ● Since the company is in loss, the company has not declared dividend for all 3 years. ● The Company has delivered an impressive revenue growth over a period of FY13 – FY18 aided largely by its steadily improving asset base and attractive tariff rates. ● The strengthening of the grid infrastructure enabling better integration of Tamil Nadu into the National Grid which permits Tamil Nadu to transfer excess power to meet the requirement of power deficit states. ● The revenue increased in the year 2017 by 28% and then decreased slightly in the next year 2018 by 6%. The improved performance is on the back of a number of strategic initiatives under taken by the Company in recent times to address some of its legacy issues and position itself to optimize opportunities in the environment. ● The Revenue growth was primarily driven by strong performance of wind business which delivered revenue growth of 28% on a Y-o-Y basis. Timely onset of wind season and better than normal wind availability contributed to the rapid growth. ● EBITDA for the year2018 stood at Rs. 29,97 5 lakhs as against Rs. 20,900 lakhs generated during previous year2016; higher by 34%. Higher revenue coupled with better cost management and higher operating leverage resulted in driving the operating profitability of the business. ● Depreciation for the year 2018 stood at Rs. 12,359 lakhs as against expense of Rs. 15,342 lakhs registered during the year2016 , lower by 19% due to sale of some of the capacities. ● Interest expense for the year 2018 stood at Rs. 21135 lakhs as against an outgo of Rs. 22453 lakhs during last year, lower by 6%. This is the second consecutive year of reduced finance cost. Over the years, despite reporting healthy operating performance though, higher interest expense used to soak up most of the profitability resulting in making business report losses. As such, in an attempt to resurrect the business and enhance the financial position, the Company has been working towards structuring a large chunk of its debt in the wind business under 5/25 scheme. It has also completed 5/25 for senior lenders to extend the tenure of loans amounting to Rs. 76,438.00lakhs of debt under subsidiary Beta wind farm private limited by 10 years from 2023 up to 2033. ● The cash proceeds from monetizing 8 unviable Biomass units to Janati Bio Power Pvt. Ltd.(transfer occurred on 31st Dec 2017) would also be partly deployed towards repaying debt and hence reduce interest rates. ● Reduction in debt resulted in annual saving encouraging financial institutions to refinance more debt. Hence this will improve cash flows of the firm. ● The transfer of debt against assets and proceeds from sale will result in moving out of biomass related debt of Rs. 330 crore resulting in strengthening the financial position of the Company in FY 2019 and accelerate value creation for Shareholders. Further, the Company is also working towards completing the sale of the remaining units and expects to complete the same shortly. ● Lastly, the Company is also working towards re-financing part of its debt by negotiating with the bankers towards lowering interest rates and extending tenure of the loans. The Company is confident that the combination of these initiatives will help transform its financial position. Further, the pickup in REC trading will also help it improve its profits and cash flows. ● Loss after tax for the year2018 stood at Rs. 3715 lakhs as against loss of Rs.8423 lakhs reported during last year which is 56% less. ● During the year under review, there is almost no change in the Share Capital of the Company ● The Company generated revenues worth Rs. 78 crore under the REC mechanism during the year as against Rs. 38 crore in the previous year, growth of 3x. OGPL liquidated its entire REC inventory during the year hence improving revenue by reducing loss. ● Key reasons impacting the overall profitability of the business has been the subdued performance of the biomass business. ● Inability to operate the plants at high utilization levels on a consistent basis, a pre-requisite for running the business viably coupled with limited working capital, hampered the ability to run the biomass business profitably; in turn dragging down the overall performance of the business. The Biomass business has contributed to about 30%-40% of the Company’s losses over the last three years. Further, against a high operating margin for Wind business, the Biomass business has been consistently running at a negative margin. Post the sale of biomass business, OGPL will transform into a pure wind energy generating company. ● Long term debt of the Company stood at Rs. 1,507 crore as against Rs. 1,312 crore during last year. ● Debt – equity ratio as of March 2018 stood at 2.8 as against 2.3 during March 2017. ● ● ● ● The company increased 30% of its capital by borrowing money from debenture holders. All the current and short term liabilities were reduced which means the company can use the money for long term and can invest to earn interest income. The company has invested huge amount of money in the tangible asset which will then help increase the income. There is a very low chance of converting all the current assets into cash, as current asset has shown decline over previous year.

Over the period of years the company has increased its purchases of raw materials which has increased its expenses Earlier the company was paying excise duty charges of Rs.10.66Cr but in recent year the company had paid only Rs.1.84Cr charges on the revenue earned, which effected the Income slightly for the year 2018. The amount of interest received from investment is less in comparison to the interest paid to debenture holders. The company has also increased the investment in assets which increased the depreciation expense. Provision for tax to be paid in the current year is made for Rs.0.74Cr, hence reducing the profit for the current year. Huge amount of expense is incurred on the power & fuel charges and also on the processing charges.
