Business Performance

Revenues for the year stood at Rs. 43313.29 lakhs as against Rs. 46,139.00 lakhs reported for the corresponding period last year. 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. Further, a growing share of newer assets in the overall mix resulted in improving the overall PLFs in turn contributing positively to revenue generation. Introduction of scheduling and forecasting mechanism to ensure improved uptime of the grid and sale of excess power to outside States has contributed positively to the sector and the business. Another, positive development has been 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 Financial Year 2017-18 was a good year for REC trading despite the abrupt start wherein trading in RECs was discontinued for a couple of months following CERC’s order to lower REC prices to a historic low. Trading resumed in the month of July following Supreme Court’s decision to allow trading of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) on the appeal of Indian Wind Power Association (IWPA). Volumes picked up sharply on the back of a strong demand from the buyers following strict enforcement of obligations by state regulators. FY 18 was also the first year after FY12 wherein total demand for RECs (Non-Solar Segment) in the market exceeded the supply. This has helped the excess backlog in most of the certificates getting liquidated at the floor price. The Company liquidated REC worth Rs. 116.51 crore (Rs.38.09 Crore held by CERC) under the REC mechanism during the year (previous year Rs.38.34 crore) higher by 204%. OGPL sold 784,237 REC certificates during the year as against 255,605 certificates sold during FY17. OGPL had an unsold inventory of 0.46 lacs RECs as at the end of March 2018 valued at floor price of approximately Rs.4.90 crore.

EBITDA for the year stood at Rs.30,221.19 lakhs as against Rs. 29,333.25 lakhs generated during previous year EBITDA margins for the year stood at 70% as against previous year margin of 64%.

Depreciation for the year stood at Rs.13,662.68 lakhs as against Rs. 16,861.36 lakhs registered during last year.

Interest expense for the year stood at Rs.23,504.79 lakhs as against the previous year outgo of Rs. 26,737.28 lakhs.

Loss after tax for the year stood at Rs. 6,322.39 lakhs as against a loss of Rs. 9,713.87 lakhs reported for last year.

Business Performance

Financial Year 2016-17 saw a major revival in the Company''s financial performance as reflected by revenue and EBITDA growth of 13% and 37% for the year respectively. 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.

Revenues for the year stood at Rs. 46,139.00 lakhs as against Rs. 41,000.89lakhs reported during corresponding period last year, higher by 13%.

The Revenue growth was primarily driven by strong performance of wind business which delivered revenue growth of 25% on a Y-o-Y basis. Timely onset of wind season and better than normal wind availability contributed to the rapid growth. Further, higher PLF''s following greater proportion of newer assets and improved grid connectivity contributed positively to the performance. Biomass business generated revenues worth Rs. 7,596.37lakhs for the year as against Rs. 10,198.71 lakhs.

EBITDA for the year stood at Rs. 29,333.25lakhs as against Rs. 21,357.31lakhs generated during previous year; higher by 37%. Higher revenue coupled with better cost management and higher operating leverage resulted in driving the operating profitability of the business. EBITDA margins for the year stood at 64% as against margins of 52%, higher by 1,200 bps.

Depreciation for the year stood at Rs. 16,861.36lakhs as against expense of Rs. 20,621.39 lakhs registered during last year, lower by 18% due to sale of some of the capacities.

Interest expense for the year stood at Rs. 26,737.28lakhs as against an outgo of Rs. 27,797.13lakhs during last year, lower by 4%. 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. Further, the cash proceeds from monetizing some of the unviable Biomass units would also be partly deployed towards repaying debt to incorporate a longer tenure and reduce interest rates. Lastly, the Company is also working towards re-financing part of its debt at prevailing interest rates. 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 year stood at Rs. 9,713.87lakhs as against loss of Rs. 34,062.05 lakhs reported during last year.

Composite Scheme of Arrangement and Amalgamation

The Board of Directors of the Company at their meeting held on 13th June 2015 has approved the Draft Composite Scheme of Arrangements and Amalgamation between the Company and Bharat Wind Farm Private Limited and Biobijlee Green Power Company Limited. The said Scheme was approved by the Shareholders of the Company through Court Convened Meeting (CCM) held on 6th June 2016.

OGPL had made an application in May 2016 to the Madras High Court for demerger of the biomass business into a separate listed entity. As a part of the scheme, your company was also merge its wholly owned subsidiary Bharath Wind Farm Limited (BWFL) with itself. The Appointed date for the merger was April 1, 2015. The biomass undertaking of the Company was to get demerged to Bio Biobijlee Green Power Limited, a subsidiary of the company, effective 1 October 2015.

As per Ministry of Corporate Affairs Notification dated 7th November 2016, pursuant to Companies (Transfer of Pending Proceedings) Rule 2016, all proceedings under the Act, including proceedings relating to arbitration, compromise, arrangements and reconstruction, other than proceedings relating to winding up on the date of coming into force of these rules shall stand transferred to the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) exercising respective territorial jurisdiction from High Court. The move of merger petition being moved from High Court to NCLT and coupled with getting No Objection Certificate ( NOC) from one of our secured lender, has resulted in taking the decision of not to aggressively pursue this demerger proposal by the Board.

In view of the accumulated losses and the reduced size of the operations, it was felt that demerger of biomass operations into a listed entity with limited growth potential would not create optimum value for shareholders. Thus, sale of the biomass operations is the most efficient method to unlock value for shareholders. As a result, the Board has approved transferring 9 projects comprising 68 MW of capacity through this transaction to its Promoter Company and its subsidiaries.

In addition to that, the Board has approved the transfer of the Biomass operations to its wholly owned subsidiary - Biobijlee Green Power Company Limited. This is a precursor to the sale of the biomass operations to the Promoter Company and its subsidiaries. As a result of this decision, the Company is withdrawing the application from the High Court.

Performance of wind business during the year to a large extent was impacted by performance of the segment which has continued to remain sub-optimal primarily owing to external factors such as inadequate infrastructure - grid back down, above average variation in wind patterns etc., resulting in the gap between performance and potential. Delayed and lower wind availability impacted revenue generation for the year. Measures such as planned shutdown of thermal plants during peak generation season by the Tamil Nadu State Electricity Board (TNSEB) has significantly contributed to the improved scenarios.

The Tamil Nadu state has been successful in consistently lowering the losses associated with grid back down; from a level of 40% two years back the situation is expected to be below 10% by next year. The situation is encouraging and should help us deliver significantly better performance if on-ground developments progress as planned. Further, the grid corridor which was incomplete for last two -three years is now complete which in turn has resulted in evacuating energy generated in Southern part of Tamil Nadu to Northern parts of the state which are the prime consuming centers of the state. The business is expected to deliver a better performance with improvement in wind availability as the same will ensure higher generation of energy.

With regard to the biomass business, the Company has more than doubled its capacity in the business over the years. With an installed capacity of 106 MW, biomass constitutes 20% of the Company''s overall portfolio. The business has had to encounter significant difficulties in turn impairing the overall performance of the business. Factors ranging from unavailability of working capital to procure raw material and unviable tariff environment had dented the segment''s performance.

Taking cognizance of the segment''s sub optimal performance over the years, the Company has been working diligently towards identifying the nature and characteristics of factors hindering the business. In light of the above, the Company has formulated a strategy which should help improve the operations and profitability of biomass business.

The Consolidated Sales and Other Income for the year under review was Rs. 40,207.51 Lakhs (Rs. 50,033.36 Lakhs). Profit before Interest, Depreciation, Tax and Exceptional items was at a level of Rs. 21308.72 Lakhs (Rs. 24,336.29 Lakhs). Loss after Tax and Minority Interest was at Rs. 33,655.99 Lakhs (Rs.23,296.17Lakhs).

3. COMPOSITE SCHEME OF ARRANGEMENT AND AMALGAMATION

PERFORMANCE REVIEW

While the business environment continued to be challenging during the year for the renewable energy business, your Company''s focus on improving the operational profile of both Wind and Biomass businesses has started yielding results in terms of both top line as well as operational margins. Increased capacities in both businesses supported by better tariffs and improved operational efficiencies contributed in maintaining the top line momentum. However, wind business in Tamil Nadu continued to be impacted through back down of machines due to the inability of the Tamil Nadu state utility to evacuate the entire generation from the wind mills in the state. During the year, the state utility has taken several measures including commissioning of the 400 kV line and substations besides other remedial measures which have led to improved grid availability as compared to the immediately preceding year. Besides, the wind capacities in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat witnessed optimum machine and wind availability during the year leading to optimal utilization of the machines at these locations. During the year, your Company''s subsidiaries commissioned 10.2MW of additional wind capacities in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.

With regard to the biomass business, your Company has commissioned 20MW cogeneration based biomass plant in Maharashtra during the year and the total installed capacity of the biomass business stands at 106.5 MW. During the year, the units in the north, especially two units in Rajasthan delivered improved performance following the upward revision in tariff in the state. However, operations at one other unit continued to be suspended while the fourth unit faced intermittent shutdown due

to high fuel costs. The performance in Tamil Nadu remained somewhat mixed with two of the units recommencing operations at a more attractive tariff structure, while performance of the other two units remained subdued, mainly due to non-availability of feedstock in the monsoon session. However, all the four units continued to get Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) benefits during the year.

While the reintroduction of Generation Based Incentives (GBI) provided the much needed fillip to the wind business, REC trading continued to be sluggish in the exchanges mainly due to poor enforcement of Renewable Purchase obligations (RPO). The trading improved towards the close of the financial year through some initiatives done by the agencies concerned to enforce compliance. The government also extended the period of holding of REC from existing 735 days to 1095 days.

Your Company continued to pursue various refinancing initiatives during the year which has started yielding positive results in respect of certain high cost and short tenure loans and these have helped in improving cash flows during the year.

The Consolidated Sales and Other Income for the year under review was Rs.50,033.36 Lakhs (Rs.42,114.92 Lakhs). Profit before Interest, Depreciation, Tax and Exceptional items was at a level of Rs.24,336.29 Lakhs (Rs.21,514.02 Lakhs). Loss after Tax and Minority Interest was at Rs.23,296.17 Lakhs (Rs.18,763.68 Lakhs). The analysis of the performance and the state of the industry are discussed elsewhere in the report under "Management Discussion and Analysis".

Your Directors'' do not recommend any dividend in view of the losses incurred by the Company during the year.

Performance Review

The year gone by continued to be challenging for both Biomass and Wind businesses both for operations as well as in project implementation. In the biomass operations of the company and its biomass subsidiaries, while the operations significantly improved in four of the plants located in Tamil Nadu through improved realisation, the company faced problems in the Rajasthan units due to low realisation and high cost of inputs. Yourcompany is taking various proactive steps to mitigate the impact of such cost increase and hopes to get the benefits of such initiatives in the coming years. In the wind business, revenues grew significantly on the back of increased capacities and realisation coupled with better wind availability and improved machine performance. The year also saw borrowing costs increase besides increase in borrowings due to expansion.

The Consolidated Sales and other income for the year under review was Rs.45,962.31 Lakhs (Rs.28,252.97 Lakhs) representing growth of 63 % overthe previous year mainly aided through incremental sales as a result of addition of capacity, improvement in sales realisation and robust income from sale of Renewable Energy Certificates. Consequently, Consolidated Profit before Interest, Depreciation and Tax was at a level of Rs.21,110.13 Lakhs as against Rs.9,320.75 Lakhs registering a growth of 126%. The Consolidated Loss after Tax before Minority Interest was at Rs.8,171.12 Lakhs as against loss after tax before Minority Interest of Rs.8,1 85.1 6 Lakhs in the previous year mainly on account of steep increase in interest costs and depreciation as a result of expansion. The analysis of the performance and the state of the industry are discussed elsewhere in the report under"Management Discussion and Analysis".

Your Directors have not recommended dividend in view of the losses incurred by the company during the year.
