Business And Performance

Solar energy demand has grown by an average 30% per annum over the past 20 years against a backdrop of rapidly declining costs and prices. This decline in cost has been driven by economies of manufacturing scale, manufacturing technology improvements, and the increasing efficiency of solar cells.

Your company being a pioneer in the industry of manufacturing solar photovoltaic cells and modules, has been on a constant growth path over the years. The last financial year of your Company, which was of nine months and ended on 31st March' 2011, was notable in itself as the company stepped up its production capacity from 30MW to 60MW, thus doubling its total production at its state of the art manufacturing facility at Falta SEZ, West Bengal. The turnover of your company for the last accounting period was Rs.16915.97 lacs as against Rs.14961.87 lacs for fifteen months in 2009-10. Despite the increase in production in quantitative terms, the turnover was low mainly because of the decrease in the selling prices of finished goods in absolute terms.

The Solar industry as a whole has recently surfaced as one of the main sources of clean energy with the Govt, of major countries showing a keen interest in promoting this industry. Recently the Govt, of India has also announced the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) wherein the Govt, has set a target of generating about 20GW of solar power by 2022. The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy is proposing a national renewable portfolio standard (RPS) requiring 10% of Indian electricity to come from renewable by 2012 and 20% by 2020. The overall global PV installation increased nearly six times from 2004 and is expected to grow faster. Solar photovoltaic power is a viable and reliable technology with a significant potential for long term growth in nearly all regions.

expansion Capacity

In line with its expansion plans as projected and embarked upon, your company is pleased to announce that with our relentless efforts we have achieved our target expansion plan of 60MW by the end of February 2011.

Business and Performance

India, an emerging economy, has witnessed unprecedented levels of economic expansion, along with countries like China, Russia, Mexico and Brazil. India, being a cost effective and labor intensive economy, has benefited immensely from a strong manufacturing and export oriented industrial framework. With the economic pace picking up, global commodity prices have also staged a comeback from their lows.

In the past few years, solar power has taken centre-stage globally as an alternate energy source. The past few months, however, have been a dampener in terms of investment flows into the sector because of the global recession. But with China and India, the two most attractive markets for solar capacity build-outs, setting ambitious targets for the next decade, the sector is definitely poised for a fresh beginning.

Your company being a pioneer in the industry of manufacturing of photovoltaic cells and modules, strives to transcend all hurdles for noting down remarkable growth. The last financial year of your Company, which was of fifteen months and ended on 30th June 2010, saw many events, the major amongst them being the start of state of the art manufacturing facility at Falta SEZ, West Bengal. The turnover of your company for the last financial year was Rs.14961.87 lacs as against Rs.13911.51 lacs in 2008-09. Despite the increase in the quantitative terms, the turnover was low mainly because of the decrease in the selling prices of finished goods in absolute terms. However, your company posted a loss in the last financial year, which can be viewed as a temporary phase, and was mainly due to fall in the prices of SPV cells and modules globally, weakening of euro vis- a-vis dollar and higher depreciation and interest costs.

Solar power, which is counted among one of the major environment-friendly sources of energy, has a number of positives and negatives. One of the most prominent advantages of solar power is that it can be renewed. With government support to boost the growth of solar industry the revival of smooth market conditions is warranted. The announcement of Jawaharlal Nehru mission by the Govt. of India with a target of setting up of 20 GW of solar PV plants by 2020 has given a further boost to the industry and domestic demand is also expected to pick – up.

Expansion Capacity

With the solar industry attracting business majors and neck cut competition, companies are on the tread for capacity expansion. In the present business scenario, volume based business has become a necessity to survive. During the last year your

Company successfully commenced the commercial production of 30 MW SPV Cells and Modules at its new state of the art manufacturing facility at Falta SEZ, West Bengal. Your company is further adding to the existing capacities in order to be economical in terms of cost given the fact that your company already has adequate infrastructure and facilities for expanding the installed capacity upto 90 – 120 MW.

During the year under review your Company has raised capital of Rs.45.40 cr. by way of QIP and further Preferential Warrants, convertible into equity shares, was also issued to the Promoter and Strategic Investor, amounting to Rs.30.00 cr.
