Other highlights of the concall are as under:-
GPIL has commenced Ari Dongri iron ore mine, having reserves of 7mt. The company is currently operating at a production level of 1,000t per day and has target to produce around 0.3mt of iron ore in FY10. GPIL expects to be 50% captive for iron ore in FY10. This is expected to generate savings of around Rs3,500/t of iron ore as the cost of extraction is around Rs1,000/t and the current landed cost of iron ore for GPIL is around Rs4,500/t.

GPIL has also received final approval for Borai Tibu iron ore mine, having reserves of around 7-8mt. The company expects the mine to be operational by 3QFY10. The estimated capex for the mine development is around Rs150mn. The expected annual capacity for both the mines is around 0.6mtpa each.

During the quarter, the company continued to sell surplus power in the merchant market as the production of billets and ferro alloys has been temporarily discontinued due to low demand and better margins from power sales. The management has guided that production will be maintained at a very low level in for next few quarters. In 4QFY09, the average realization of power was Rs6.5/unit.

As per the management there will not be any production cut for HB wires and the company will purchase the billets required, from the market which is currently available at Rs21,000/t.

GPIL’s backward integration plans are progressing as per schedule. We expect 0.6mtpa pelletization plant to be operational by Sep ’09.
