Business Performance of ESL Unlisted Share in Fy21-22

1. In FY22, ESL produced the most hot metal ever (1.355 MT, up 5% YoY), as well as the most saleable amount ever (1.260 MT, up 6% YoY).

2. EBITDA margins have shrunk by 20% year over year, mostly as a result of rising iron ore prices and an unusual rise in the price of coking coal over the year.

3. To reduce the cost of iron ore (the raw material used to make a steel) the ESL has acquired 2 mines namely

(i) Nandidih Iron ore Block (BICO) &

(ii) Nandidih Iron Ore & Manganese Block (FEEGRADE) in Barbil, Odisha through the auction process conducted by government of Odisha. This will give them backward integration facility for making steel.

4. In the year FY22, the prices have been impacted by global economic slowdown, Russia – Ukraine war, the emphasis on development projects, demand-supply forces, and government spends and policies. The company is expecting that Steel demand will remain stable in 2022 and there will be sharp correction in prices of Coking coal and iron ore prices.

5. In the month of May-22, Government has imposed export duty on the products i.e.- Pig iron, TMT & Wires rod and increased export duty on all grades of iron ore. Government has also removed duty on coking coal. Removal of import duties on coking coal and increase in export duty for iron ore will ease cost of production for steel. However, imposition of export duty on steel will have negative effect on domestic steel price sentiment.
