C. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:
I. Economic and Industrial Structure and its Developments:
The Indian economy was facing global recession and it is under
consolidation process. The government has to focus more on development
of infrastructure sector to boost GDP growth by providing higher plan
allocation and to sustain economic growth of 8%-9%.
a) Future Outlook:
Indian economy is yet to undergo structural changes to boost
infrastructure sector in the next plan period at 35% during 2009-2013
and 8% up to 2012. The companies in infrastructure sector are backed
with strong orders which translate in to revenue/earning potential in
the coming years only through financial stimulus. Your company is
giving major thrust in various infrastructure sectors to reap the
benefit of growth in infrastructure sector.
b) Infrastructure Sector and Industry Overview:
The infrastructure development needs a projected investments
requirement of USD 500 Billion and USD 1.5 Trillion in the year
2007-2012 and 2012-2017 respectively to trigger the growth. The
investment in infrastructure in India has increased from 4.9% of GDP in
2002-2003 to 6% last fiscal.
i) Transport Sector:
Indian Highways is second largest road networks in the world
aggregating 3.34 Million Kms which contributes 60% of freight and 80%
of passenger traffic. The National Highways contribute to a mere 2% of
Road Infrastructure of India. There are 259 National Highways in India
covering over 52,000 Kms distance. Road sector would require an
investment of USD 80 Billion in the next three-four years. In
2009-2010, 32 Road Projects have been awarded as against 8 in
2008-2009. Union Road Transport Ministry has awarded 3,600 Kilometer by
March, 2010 against 52,000 Kms which reflect that there is huge gap
where government needs to act upon. NHAI is likely to award 50 Projects
in 2010-2011. The government shall increase the target for
infrastructure investment using PPP model.
There is huge potential for highways development especially in
National/Express highways. In India, the vehicles are growing at an
average base of 11% per annum and road freight at the CAGR of 10%.
ii) Power Sector:
There shall be highest priority to the capacity addition in power
sector to the extent of 1,00,000 MW to meet the increasing demand in
the power. The Mega Power Policy needs to be modified to encourage the
further capacity addition. Coal Regulatory Authority needs to be
created as a level playing field in coal sector to regulate the coal
sector and also need to establish a National Clean Energy Fund to
ensure clean energy.
iii) Mining Industry:
There shall be more emphasis on scientific mining and to prevent
un-authorised mining and zero waste mining. The regulatory environment
needs to be strengthened to prevent un-authorised mining, to attract
the investment and to encourage value addition in the mining using PPP
model. State Government needs to set out a State Mineral Policy.
Development of roads within the mining areas and connecting roads to
railway stations/ports need to be given top priority.
c) Investment Opportunities:
There are vast investment opportunities in infrastructure sectors both
in rural and urban areas, which shall be exploited through PPP Model.
Therefore, private sectors have investment opportunities in
infrastructure sectors. The long term financial institutions and
venture capital fund evincing the interest in long term financial
lending to the infrastructure sectors. Liberal tax holiday need to be
provided to BOOT/BOT Projects in Power, Roads, Highways, Bridges,
Airports, Ports, Railway Systems, Water Supply, Irrigation, Sanitation
and Sewerage Systems. Infrastructure and green field projects shall be
permitted to avail ECB to the extent of 100% of the total project cost
for financing project. Investment Promotion and Infrastructure
Development Cell in the Ministry of Industry need to be strengthened to
oversee the investment opportunities in infrastructure industry.
d) Risks and Challenges:
Construction delays continue to be a concern factor which stems from
number of factors outside the control of project sponsors, which
includes land acquisition, regulatory approvals, inflation, litigation
etc., which can delay the timely completion of the project and increase
in cost of project. This can, in turn, lead to additional funding,
additional cost of fund etc.
e) Approach to Regulation of Infrastructure Sector:
Uniform regulatory approach for all the key infrastructure sectors
shall be provided by the Secretariat for the Committee on
Infrastructure and Planning Commission to create a preferred
destination for investments by the investors.
