    PREFACE

    Sometimes words fall short to show gratitude, the same happenedwith me during this project. The immense help and support received from Uttar Pradesh

    Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Ltd. overwhelmed me during the project. No professional

    curriculum is considered complete without industry experience. Every individual doing

    any kind of professional course has to undergo through practical study before one can

    consider himself or herself fully qualified as potential manager.

    After completing the second semester I got an opportunity to do my summer training in

    ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL SATATEMENT OF UTTAR PRADESH RAJYA

    VIDYUT UTPADAN NIGAM LTD Obra. A very renowned organisation of India. It

    was a like a dream come true while getting trained at such a reputed organization. It was

    a wonderful experience to understand the working environment and activities performed

    at this organization.

    The project period comprise of 6 weeks and was divided into several phase, where I

    learnt about managing the financial activities, filling up different type of requesting

    form, checking the various required documents and how to train any consultant. I also

    learnt about various steps of the UPRVUNL.

    In the second phase I was to conduct the survey of 100 persons to know the risk analysis

    ofUPRVUNLs employees. Also, the aim of my survey was to know analyse the views

    of employees how much they are aware about risk of this organisation. Field component

    like survey, with respect to organising helped me a lot and would be a great support in

    future.

    In such a short span of time during my stay at Uttar Pradesh Rajya Vidyut Utpadan

    Nigam Ltd, I have got the practical knowledge of every aspects related to theorganization and have understood the real life situation. It is at Uttar Pradesh Rajya

    Vidyut Utpadan Nigam, that I realised bookish knowledge has got its application.

    This report is basically prepared on ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL SATATEMENT

    OF UTTAR PRADESH RAJYA VIDYUT UTPADAN NIGAM LTD, I hope that

    the report will provide the adequate knowledge about working capital of UPRVUNL.

    AT GLANCE

    UPRVUNL is wholly owned state thermal power utility with present generatingcapacity of 4082 MW, operating 5 Thermal Power Stations within Uttar Pradesh. Poised

    to contribute in the growth of state, we're in the process of adding further 2000 MW

    capacity to our existing fleet by year 2012.

    Uttar Pradesh Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Limited (UPRVUNL) was constituted on

    dated 25.08.1980 under the Companies' Act 1956 for construction of new thermal power

    projects in the state sector. The first Thermal Power Station constructed by UPRVUNLwas Unchahar Thermal Power Station of 2X210 MW capacity and it was transferred to

    NTPC on dated 13.02.1992. On dated 14.01.2000, in accordance to U.P. State

    Electricity Reforms Acts 1999 and operation of U.P. Electricity Reforms Transfer

    Scheme 2000, U.P. State Electricity Board, till then responsible for generation,

    transmission and distribution of power within the state of Uttar Pradesh, was unbundledand operations of the state sector thermal power stations were handed

    Over to UPRVUNL.

    Today it is looking after operations of five thermal power plants located in different

    parts of U.P., with a total generation capacity of 4082 MW with planting facility as

    follows.

    U.P. Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Ltd. (UPRVUNL) is a progressive & fast expanding

    state thermal power generation undertaking having an installed capacity of 3933 MW

    for thermal generation and proposing to double it within next five years.

    UPRVUNL is also in joint venture with NTPC in the field of thermal generation and

    with other states in development of coal mines. On the other hand UP Jal Vidyut Nigam

    Ltd. (UPJVNL) is a state Hydel generation undertaking having an installed capacity of

    526.5 MW for hydro electric generation and proposing to expand by another 100 MW

    within next three years.

    CORE VALUES

    This Corporate Plan provides details of the overall agenda for UPRVUNL. The

    successful delivery of the agenda would require a risk taking dynamic leadership

    along with committed workforce that identifies with and supports the vision. To

    ensure realization of this corporate agenda, a set of core values should be central

    to, and govern each activity of the Organisation:

    Customer focus

    Organisational pride Mutual respect and trust

    Initiative and speed

    Total quality

    Executive Summary

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    11/55

    The environment for UPRVUNL looks good because of very high demand for

    electricity for which deficit would last for next 6-7 years. Managing ongoing and new

    projects is critical to benefit from the market demand. The corporation has enough

    experience in implementing the projects, but the equipment supplies and receivableshad been major concerns.

    One of the strongest points is the established business and early mover advantage for

    UPRVUNL in the State of Uttar Pradesh with deeper technical processes like the design

    and development; erection and commissioning with very experienced people and 5

    major plants with about 4000 MW capacity.

    The very strengths are converting into debilitating liabilities. The plants are ageing; the

    people have become somewhat complacent with obsolescing skills with increasingburden of wages and inefficiencies resulting into not so good financial performance.

    The non-cooperative suppliers, increasing competition are threatening the financial

    health of the corporation.

    In the review report 2005-12 it became clear as in corporate plan 2012-17 that the

    corporation needs to handle some of these critical problems. We suggest that to reduce

    monopoly power of suppliers like BHEL, the corporation needs to diversify BTG

    supplier base with internationally recognized and cheaper vendors especially from

    China. The coal supply chain needs to be further smoothened and internal project teams

    are constituted with capable/ well trained people in project management skills and

    technical capabilities. Sadly the experienced managers and the top management in spite

    of being highly committed to the physical and financial progress have not been able to

    reach performance levels that were targeted.

    Therefore the whole organization needs to be revamped: corporate and plant structures,

    organizational cadres, re-allocation of employees to right jobs, strengthening project

    management and building new capabilities for larger sized projects, get off from uprating projects to new projects at the same premises, except those projects which can

    give services at least for next 15 years with PLF above 60%, benchmarked auxiliary

    consumption, reduced outages, SHR, cost per unit. The regulator cannot perpetually

    fund the inefficiently generated power by compensating with higher tariffs. The

    competitive pressure will be felt immediately after the supply deficit is overcome.

    Each of the ten areas recommended must be worked upon if the corporation needs toreach its desired vision and meet it mission commitments: Managing dynamic

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    12/55

    environment, balancing business portfolio, smoothening supply chain, operations

    including project management, Human resource management, organizational

    restructuring, Board of Directors, and investment management, Employee welfare and

    corporate social responsibility.

    Managing dynamic environment

    There is need to establish the environmental intelligence group assisting both in

    operations, strategic areas like new investment, divestment, closure etc to help make

    more discipline decisions

    Balancing business portfolio

    Although O&M, R&M and refurbishment will remain important areas given more than

    average aging plants, however the investment should shift towards new projects due to

    better economy and better market control. Retirement of many aging units may be a

    wise strategy.

    Smoothening Supply chain

    The most critical aspect here is the BTG and BOP timely supplies. Diversified vendor

    base will help timely commissioning of projects. In case of contractual failures penalty

    clause should be enforced on undue delays. The coal and oil supply chains must be

    studied for better efficiencies and environmental compliance perspective.

    Operations including project management

    Here the most critical area is to build critical project management competencies and

    empowered structural positions of project management teams. Operational benchmarks

    as targets be pursued vigorously through well designed organizational structures, clear

    accountability and incentive systems. ERP and IT project should be implemented at

    faster speed to derive returns from this investment.

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    13/55

    Human resource management

    This being the only source of competitive advantage enough resources must be diverted

    towards training and development with at 3% budget of revenue dedicated to training

    and development for the employees. The cadre restructuring should be done keeping in

    mind that the internal environment is enabling and empowering with adequate

    responsibility and accountability

    Organisational Restructuring

    The PRAGATI teams proposed organizational structure (draft) appears to meet the new

    requirements of the organizations. However, a concept of executive teams is proposed

    at the corporate and each plant levels. The strategy and project management should be

    given higher emphasis. The divisional structure (with profit responsibility) will un-

    clutter information overload as well as more effective operations because of clear

    accountability.

    Board of Director

    We suggest that board of directors should also be restructured by bringing in more

    independent directors and create more transparency so that in future it could be listed onstock exchanges. In some critical areas board committees should be constituted.

    Investment management

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    14/55

    Emphasis should be placed on profitability and more internal generation of funds for

    investment in future projects, without perpetually depending on the UP Government.

    This is necessary especially in future if capital markets were to be tapped. By 2017 it

    should acquire financial autonomy. It is necessary the government continue funding

    until then and it should issue bonds to fund investment against receivables from its

    customers. It is suggested that if the above areas are successfully navigated thecorporation has the potential to meet its vision and mission spirit.

    Employee Welfare

    Employees are the greatest resource of any organization, especially if they areconsidered the source of competitive advantage. The developmental needs of employees

    on the job must be seriously considered and their socio-psychological needs beside

    physical comfort. The working environment should have hazard free and physically

    comfortable working ambience especially in plants. Medical facilities, recreation needs

    and religious and social needs may be considered with very clear policy and

    programmes.

    Corporate Social Responsibility

    It is essential to build a focus of CSR activity to have impact. Beside R&R guidelines,

    which are very well elaborated by NTPC, which can be modified as per Nigam needs

    and vision, the corporation should focus on an impact area like education, especially

    scholarship scheme for higher education. The other important are to which Nigam can

    look into is the construction of electricity distribution network around 5 Kms. radii

    around each of the plants for the local communities. A mobile health van can provide

    assistance through an NGO engaged in health sector in the proximity of each plant.

    Finally drinking water facilities can be provided to the local communities.

    Introduction:

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    15/55

    Energy is the most important building block of every civilization. Most of the modern

    day war in fact is, overtly or covertly fought over energy security. Much of the past

    slow social-economic development can directly or indirectly be attributed to lack of

    energy resources specially electricity. To power the growth of the country to gain and

    sustain 10% growth in GDP will raise more energy demands, including hydrocarbons

    and electricity. The later still the cheapest source and possibly one of the cleanestsources of energy, notwithstanding the polluting supply side of generation if oil or coal

    is used. UPRVUNL represents the pride place in electricity generation in the state of

    Uttar Pradesh. The common man and the government look at it with considerable

    expectations to solve the problem of energy needs in the State. It is therefore imperative

    that UPRVUNL go beyond what it is doing today in meeting these expectations or it

    will be dumped by its stakeholders. It is the onus on its managers to make it a more

    vibrant , responsive and responsible organization to all its stakeholders and thus it

    needs to review its functioning and improve management systems in order to meet theexpectations raised by its stakeholders: common man, immediate customers, suppliers,

    owners , managers and many thousand employees, regulators, lenders and supporters .

    But before we begin with articulating its strategic intent in the form of vision, mission

    and objectives, we need to analyze the demand and supply scenario.

    Demand Projection

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    16/55

    Business forecasting can be done by:

    1. Trend projection method

    This methodology is quantitative in nature and gives us figures based on regressingthepast time series data.

    2. Barometric method

    The government has an ambitious program Power all by 2012 (a lead indicator) which

    indicates higher demand prospects for electricity in coming years. Uttar Pradesh being

    the second largest state-economy of India contributes 8.17% to Indias GDP. Given the

    fact that Uttar Pradeshs economy has grown by 7% in last 5 years we expect that this

    will continue leading to higher demand of manpower, capital, and infrastructure

    including electricity (coincidental indicators).

    We have used the trend projection method to forecast the demand for the next seven

    years viz.

    2011-2017.

    Methodology:

    The time series forecasting can be done using the trend of past years. These trends

    can be captured as linear, exponential functions. Following the demand breakup

    in previous years, we feel that a linear estimation will be a better indicator. Thepast data has been taken from the power census done by central government. Data

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    17/55

    for some years was not available and has been interpolated from the other years.

    Looking closely we can observe that the trend was different before 2003 where it was

    relatively flatter. Demand has grown at a higher rate in last 6 years. Hence we willforecast the total demand using linear regression over last 6 years. The sector-wise

    demand in following years will be done on the basis of current (2009-10) sector-wise

    allocation.

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    18/55

    By 2015, the state will require about 54211 MU of power, an increase of about

    14000 MU over current demand. The projections for different sectors for the next five

    years using this technique are:

    Table2: Demand Projections 2010-17

    Projected Power consumption in 2010-11 & 2016-17:

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    19/55

    Graph: Projections based on linear trend:

    From the past data and the projections, we can observe that the growth rate in industrial,

    utilities and agricultural sector have been almost half that of the domestic consumption.

    Much of the rural areas were not electrified earlier but now are slowly being covered by

    the grid leading to increased demand in this sector.

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    20/55

    The demand data is very close to consumption data from 2000-2010(refer toCategoryWise Energy Sold in UP data). This is indicative of the fact that demand

    estimation has only been done for cities, towns and villages which have been

    covered by grid in their respective years. This means that the demand from un-

    electrified regions of Uttar Pradesh is not a part of these projections. Besides there is

    unmet demand due to roistering and non-supply of electricity especially during peakhours. To achieve a more holistic projection of demand, we have used the population

    and GDP of Uttar Pradesh and compared it with other states. The scatter plot below

    shows the Per capita GDP vs. Per capita electricity demanded for various states.

    Graph showing regression based on lead indicators:

    The above graph denotes that SDP and electricity consumption fit a linear regression

    line with 61% predictability, and SDP can be considered as a good predictor of

    lectricity consumption per capita. Using the values obtained from this regression and the

    annual growth rate of GDP and population, we are able to project the demand in Uttar

    Pradesh.

    Assumptions: GDP Growth Rate 10%

    Population Growth Rate 2.16%

    Availability factor 0.66

    Table 4: Capacity Required in MU and MW in UP:

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    21/55

    The results obtained from this regression reveal that the demand severely exceeds theestimates from preceding method. However, these results are more accurate as the

    net demand is directly linked to the population and electricity consumption per

    person.

    Supply Projections:

    Estimating Supply of power in UP:

    In order to increase the power generations there are two alternatives available. One is

    obviously to increase the installed capacity by building new plants. This is a long term

    solution but this will take a lot of time and investment. On the other hand there are

    quick fix solutions like renovation and modernization (R&M), refurbishment, up ratingand life extension. These R&M and refurbishment increase power generation by

    improving the operating condition of the plant in terms of PLF and availability. Up

    rating on the other hand is a small capacity addition to existing plants. Life extension

    increases the life of the plant, which otherwise is 25 years. These solutions require less

    investment compared to new plant and can be implemented quickly. However their

    benefits are limited in terms of useful life and the power output.

    Methodology

    We have compared refurbishment and up rating to new plant in terms of Net Present

    Value of the capex required for a 1MW capacity and the additional revenues generated.

    The detailed calculations and the assumptions taken can be seen in the excel sheetattached as Annexure IV All the inputs and assumptions to the model are kept in a

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    22/55

    separate tab Assumptions and Inputs of table 5 bellow. In case of any disagreementwith any of the assumptions/values or to carry any sensitivity analysis the value can be

    changed in the assumptions sheet. All the related changes will get reflected in the

    calculations and results.

    Table 5: Assumptions

    Variable operating costs are assumed to be same for new and refurbished plants In case

    of refurbishment or up-ration R&M expenses will continue to occur at the same rate as

    in 10yr old plant

    In fact the Operating costs will be lower thus improving NPV.

    The excel sheet is provided as Annexure IV separately in electronic form. However, the

    result

    summary is presented below:

    Table 6: showing average cost/MW by different Project Process: and

    Table 7: NPV of Investment in different Project processes:

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    23/55

    Conclusion

    From the calculation it was seen that a new plant would be most beneficial followed by

    up-rating in terms of the net present value. Refurbishment was not found profitable for

    the given set of benefits it is expected to provide. Therefore it is not recommendable to

    carry out refurbishment unless it is the only possibility due to resource crunch or

    pressure from demand side. However other than financial criteria should be considered,

    which may temper the above conclusion. Other major issue discovered in case of

    refurbishment and R&M is the delay of supplies from EPC contractor. This has causeddelay in repair and maintenance activities and caused permanent damage to facilities

    besides decreasing efficiency. A penalty clause for delay should be incorporated in EPC

    contracts to account for any delay.

    Capacity Projection:

    Uttar Pradesh Currently has 10369 MW of installed power generation capacity of which

    4082 MW comes from UPRVUNL. Following is the breakup of the current capacity in

    Four private sector/NTPC projects are also in progress in UP, which will give varying

    share of their output to the state:

    Table12: 11th five year Plant availability of power with UPRVUNL:

    In addition there have been several MOUs signed by UPPCL in the recent past with thevarious power producers to setup their facilities in the state, and there are several other

    projects in the pipeline including a few from UPRVUNL (Panki Extn, Harduaganaj

    Extn Stage II, Obra C, Anapara E). Following are the details for the 12th Five year plan.

    Source: UPRVUNL

    For these projects a conversion rate of 50% can be assumed considering the various

    hurdles they may face. Considering these capacity addition plans in UP, the total

    available power to UP is given in table 12.

    Table 14: Projected Demand and supply 2012-17:

    Which when compared to the demand projections still leave big headroom for further

    expansion. Private sector is expected to expand rapidly in north India, given the scarcityof electricity in the region, which will lead to further capacity additions from Privatesector in this region. Considering the 40% conversion rate for the proposed plants, UP

    will have excess capacity by 2017 and can look out to sell the power. One assumption

    regarding the capacity addition plans of UPRVUNL is that at least 1320 MW might not

    be materialized in the 12th five year plan, considering the tough environmental norms.

    Resource Analysis

    Generation equipment broadly comprises boiler-turbine-generator (BTG), balance ofplants (BoP) and civil construction. While BTG involves products, most of BoP and

    civil construction is classified under projects. Below, we represent various componentsof a generation system:

    15% of the total initial investment required goes to meet the working capital

    requirements. BHEL and Thermax have been key boiler manufacturers in India; BHEL,

    along with Siemens, has been a key player in turbine generators. BHEL, the largest

    equipment vendor in the country, has 10 GW annual BTG capacity. However, according

    to the Eleventh Plan capacity addition targets, the BTG industry is required to have anannual capacity of ~15 GW. Given this gap in demand and supply, imports will play avital role in meeting this demand. Among foreign players, Chinese and Korean

    (Shanghai, Doosan, and Dong Fang) manufacturers have been particularly active in

    India due to their ability of executing standardized 300 and 600 MW plants on lower

    time schedules and lower initial capex.

    All plants commissioned after 2017 shall have to be supercritical (e.g. 660MW and

    above) and to have a coal linkage. Chinese and Korean manufacturers have the

    capabilities to produce supercritical. BHEL had a market share of 64.4% in FY07, when

    the total installed capacity of India was 125.4 GW. However, the BTG equipment

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    28/55

    market in India had started changing from H1FY07, with the states beginning to focus

    on power generation capacity addition. Simultaneously, presence of international

    vendors also increased, primarily of the Chinese. Hence, we have seen the market share

    of BHEL declining progressively. It had a market share of 59.2% at the end of FY09,

    when the total installed capacity of India was at 147.9 GW.

    Annual capacity of the BTG equipment industry will be at ~35-40 GW by the end of

    Eleventh Plan or the beginning of the Twelfth plan. Capacity addition in the Twelfthplan is expected to be at 80-100 GW, implying an annual BTG equipment capacity

    requirement of ~16-20 GW.

    Table 16: Details of New Entrants in BTG:

    Coal Supply:

    Availability and affordability make coal the most cost-effective fuel ultra mega power

    project developers. The supply of coal, however, continues to rest largely with the two

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    30/55

    public sector coal mining companies - Coal India Ltd and Singareni Collieries

    Company Ltd, which together meet over 80 per cent of the country's coal demand.

    Imported coal bridges the demand-supply gap to some extent, but at prices which are at

    premiums in excess of 30-35 per cent even after adjusting for its higher calorific value.

    Though the public sector miners sell coal at regulated prices, which are at a substantial

    discount to market determined (e-auction) prices and prices of comparable importedcoal, the supply of cheap domestic coal via this route is not assured. Public Sector

    Undertaking (PSU) miners are obligated to supply coal to the extent of the Annual

    Contracted Quantity (ACQ) set in the Fuel Supply Agreement (FSA), but are free to

    make up for any short-fall in ACQ by supplying imported coal paid for by the buyer.

    The newly formulated FSA which PSU miners will sign with all future consumers

    (except those opting for Central Electricity Authority (CEA) allocated ACQ), has

    lowered the committed fuel supply from 90 per cent of the ACQ for power utilities (60per cent of ACQ for non-power sector industries) earlier to 50 per cent of ACQ,

    indicating that PSU miners do not expect their production to catch up with demand,

    going forward. In such a scenario, captive coal blocks play a crucial role in addressingthe fuel security concerns of consumers. However, the development of captive blocks is

    a challenging and time-consuming process, with a whole host of issues slowing down

    the timely commissioning of mines.

    Progress on captive blocks hit by forest clearance, land

    acquisition hurdles:

    Captive Blocks allotment since 1993

    Progress on Captive Blocks allotted since 1993:

    Coal block allotment was initiated in 1993 when the Sarshatoli coal block was allotted

    to Integrated Coal Mining Ltd, an RPG group company, for power generation. Coalblock allocation then picked up only in 2003 when 21 coal blocks with geological

    reserves of more than 1.4 billion tones were allotted. The period 2003 to 2008 saw a

    surge in block allotment with 179 blocks allotted during this period. Of all the captive

    coal blocks in the country, 26 currently produce coal, nine of which are legacy blocks.

    However, out of the 208 coal blocks allotted since 1993, only 17 have commenced

    production as of 2009-10, reflecting the dismal state of progress on captive blockdevelopment by allocates. The principle reasons for the slow pace of development are

    the inordinate delays in land acquisition and in obtaining environmental and forest

    clearances.

    4. Fair to its partners

    5. Will remain environmentally and socially responsible

    Corporate Objectives

    1. Build a strong competence in customer responsiveness by leveraging humanbusiness through training, development and motivation

    2. Expansion and growth by improving the efficiency of existing plants and

    adding new generation capacities

    3. Reducing supply chain bottlenecks and operating costs

    4. Diversifying both into vertical chain activities and diversifying the input base

    that lead to the leading market share5. By taking advantage of economies of scale becoming the lowest cost generator

    of electricity in the state and the country6. Partnering with other entities to minimize investment needs and reducing the

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    33/55

    investment risk

    7. Becoming one of the leaders in environmental management and socially

    responsible citizenship in its peer group

    In order to meet the objectives, mission, vision of the corporation, UPRVUNL needsto take stock of its Strengths and weaknesses and assess the environmental futurethreats and opportunities in order to allocate resources judiciously. There we attemptthe SWOT Analysis.

    SWOT Analysis:

    Strengths1. Ownership is with state government that reduces the risk of

    liquidation who can make investment in public interest should thethings turn hostile

    2. It has R&D support from Central Electricity Authority keepingthe research and development costs almost zero.

    3. It is easy to get land and environmental clearances from respective

    authority without suspecting foul play

    4. It has top management who very competent and committed whowork for the government as well as for the corporation-facilitatinggovernment support as and when required

    5. UPRVUNL has a rich history and competence of generatingelectricity through coal and oil, water with priority allocation ofinputs

    6.

    The input costs are cushioned against market price vagaries and thushelps in realizing costs through regulated tariff system

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    34/55

    7. It has access to large real estate which is now free of cost and doesnot require fresh investment with all the facilities required for a TPSlike water, transport access.

    8. It has the largest market share of about 50% of capacity ingeneration business as compared to its competitors. The actual

    capacity for generation is 3933 MW as on 31

    st

    March, 2011 afterexcluding unit 6 of Obra and unit no. 3 of Harduaganj.

    9. Assured market reducing the cost of marketing because ofhistorical relationships and scarcity of electricity. Demand is not anissue for next 10 years.

    10.Most of the plants are depreciated leading to less strain on the balancesheet

    11.

    It has the largest number of technical manpower in the state and oneof the largest in the country that is well experienced.

    12.The percentage of youngsters is growing beyond 50 (about 750out of 1450) at executive (technical) level which are well educated, getting good training and are very motivated

    13.Corporate values are already articulated and are in place

    14.Security of employment provides stability to the knowledge base

    which does not migrate. Continuously and good compensationpolicy.

    Weaknesses

    1. Being state owned organization it suffers from slow decision makingprocessand dealing with less risky but expensive suppliers and buyers

    which also limit speed of decision making

    2. Because of SOE employees do not have commercial mindset3. The top management comes from Government which also has

    its negative side: the commitment levels are not very high because ofuncertain tenure.

    4. Cost, quality, and schedules for works lowers efficiencyin O&M and Project management

    5. Has already adequate input linkages

    6. Three Full time directors positions are vacant, substituted by part

    time director finance, and former technical director serving asadvisor. Post of Director Personnel is vacant.

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    35/55

    7. Disputes on seniority are quite frequent which delays thepromotion on senior positionssince last many years loweringmotivation

    8. Promotions are not based on competence but other politicallydetermined criteria

    9. Old organization continue which is not consistent with todaysground realities

    10. Induction on compassionate ground has resulted in work

    inefficiencies and high cost work force, which UP Government

    has already stopped in its own departments.

    11. Roles and responsibilities are not commensurate with

    compensation, which are needed to be defined and refined.

    12. Deferred or partial payments by customers adversely affect the

    cash cycle

    13. It is difficult to mobilize equity and thereby loans due toprofit/loss account losses and because government also takes very

    long time in implementing financial recommendations

    15.Supply of coal comes from distantly located pit heads increasinginput transportation costs.

    16.Government ownership provides cushion against inefficient working

    resulting in lower efficiencies.

    17.Very high age of plants keeps the breakdowns as frequent resulting

    in lower PLF and high input costs

    18.

    Project implementation is a very serious drawback for lack of projectmanagement skills and bureaucratic procedures

    19.Poor contract reinforcement with equipment suppliers like the virtualmonopolist BHEL resulting into high cost and time overruns

    20.Coal linkages for plants are inadequate for future needs

    21.Coordination and communication processes are very slow

    22.Technology enablers such as IT have only been addressed recently

    whose implementation is moving at a slow pace.

    23.Inadequate focus on regulatory affairs. Handled at plant level instead

    of corporate level.24.Auxiliary consumptions are very high compared to its competitors

    like NTPC

    25.Political interference at the level of supplies (favored), operations-

    lack of proper allocation of manpower at right jobs/ place, sub-

    contractors, and employees (transfers/promotions)

    26.. Lower PLF compared to competitors and national average makes

    operations expensive.27.It is estimated that the balance sheet may have the losses until 31st

    March 2010 to the tune of Rs. 585.7 crore as per provisional balancesheet, whereas we have repayments from customer of the same tune,

    therefore the interest cost without any benefits to Corporation.

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    36/55

    Opportunities

    1. BOP and BTG can be awarded through bidding system instead of

    single supplier as is given to BHEL which do not adhere to timelines

    of the contract who do not pay penalties for project time over runs.

    2. Possibility of increasing revenues through CDM, PAT( Perform,

    Achieve and Trade) mechanism of BEE (Bureau of EnergyEfficiency).

    3. There is a good opportunity to increase the PLF close to national

    average of 75% thereby raising higher generation of electricity

    4. Revenues can further increased by gains from UI provisions through

    disciplined management of its resources.

    5. There is going to be about 10-20% gap until 2017 in the demand and

    supply which will ensure that whatever is produced is consumed- nodemand risk.

    6. Fuel security through JVs with mining companies

    7. Productivity improvements through usage of IT applications

    8. Improving financial health by setting outstanding receivables from

    UPPCL through inter department coordination

    9. New projects can improve the PLF, and higher energy generation

    which will have positive impact on the financial health10.Automated equipments / super critical plants can produce higher

    levels of energy at reduced prices11.Renewable sources especially solar energy can be a good

    opportunity in future especially in UP which eventually translate into

    more energy with lower costs.

    12.. Availability of land from ash ponds, which can be utilized forfurther expansion by converting that land planting Jatropha plants

    which can be converted into diesel, and we can earn carbon credits

    too.

    13.Scrapping the non-functional units that are officially deleted. They

    can be sold out in market and vacated land can be used for newplants eg. Obra and Harduaganj units. The scrapped units can be sold

    through MMTC.14.Scope for Joint venture exist today more because private sector has

    already moved in generation and many are willing to join the

    business who normally do not have experienced manpower

    15.Value chain partners and competitors are willing to join forces to

    produce electricity like NTPC, Coal India limited, even transmission

    and distribution companies.

    Threats

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    37/55

    1. BTG had be given without tender to BHEL, which has become a

    liability because of noncompliance of the agreement- non

    competitive rates and late completion of the projects against

    DPR/Work Order

    2. BHEL has taken advance money for R&M but may not start work

    even in future. Which may result in closure notice from CentralPollution Control Board and other regulatory authorities, which may

    cause higher penalties and closure of old plants draining

    production capacity and profitability

    3. Integrity of employees, suppliers as mafias with political linkage

    are a serious threat to the functioning of UPRVUNL.

    4. The deregulated generation sector may see more competition in

    future which may threaten the leadership position of UPRVUNLOperations.

    5. New plants have long gestation periods making the progress slow

    towards leadership position.6. The aging plants underperform but maintenance cannot be done on

    schedule because of demand pressure.

    7. Pollution control regulation is becoming more stringent underinternational guidelines whose compliance can threaten closure of

    many units, if not acted upon in time

    8. Coal mafia continues to exert pressure on the prices, quality and

    quantity of coal.

    9. The constant pressure on input prices may build pressure on energy

    prices which because of more competitive output may forceregulator to reduce prices which may adversely affect the expansionplans

    10.Government is rather reluctant to provide additional equity required

    for expansion of capacities and thus affecting expansion plans

    11.The skill gap appeared because of attrition due to retirement or lack

    of training in ABT regime

    12.Continuing government mindset may result in serious lag in

    financial viability of future investments

    13.

    The state of monopoly has already been threatened by larger firmswith adequate investment capacity which is likely to threaten the

    leadership position of Nigam.

    14.At some point in time the UP State may get trifurcated reducing the

    power of the Nigam as happened in case of Uttrakhand

    15.The stranglehold of politician may become worsen in future incurbing the freedom of the professionally managed corporation,

    because of 100% ownership.

    16.Increasing inflation may lead to higher interest rates, wages and cost

    of electricity unless competition bring in commensurate reduction in

    operating costs

    17.The continuous changes in the business environment makes it

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    38/55

    difficult for companies to keep environmental knowledge undated

    regularly which calls for continuous learning to which old timers are

    ill-equipped to handle.

    Corporate & Business Strategies

    We classify our recommendations into Ten broad categories: managing dynamic

    environment, business portfolio, Smoothening supply chain, Operations including

    project management, Organizational restructuring, Human Resource management,

    Board of Directors, Investment management, Employee welfare and Corporate Social

    responsibility.

    Managing Dynamic Environment

    1. There is a need for a business planning Department to collect, generate and

    collate data so that informed decision can be made. This unit can scaninformation regarding customers, suppliers, regulatory changes, business

    opportunities, partnership opportunities, Human resource related practices, new

    technologies, competitor activities, political changes, social changes, economic

    and financial matters , pollution, energy audit reports , related technologies ,

    issues of sustainability.

    2.

    This department can be headed by a Director Corporate Strategy (25-30 yearsexperience) trained or experienced enough in strategic Planning who may besupported by other managers (see corporate structure) and young business

    analysts (2-3 years experience with MBA degree) with some specialization in

    economics , statistics, environmental engineering/ pollution control , business

    development, with skills in competitor and customer analysis , a financial

    manager, an electrical technologist,

    3. The roles will be to analyze related issues through different disciplinary

    perspectives and build a comprehensive view of the issue at the planning levels.They will also be responsible to continuously review the current business

    environment and suggest future trends with respect to new emerging trends. They

    will assist the operating managers on various issues including the related data/

    information availability. Some of the hard data will be stored in the computers

    which will be accessible to anyone who want any relevant information. They willhelp set up monthly, quarterly targets, annual targets and plans and 20 years

    rolling plan. They will also alert respective operating managers about any

    significant changes that might affect their functions. We have recommended this

    entity on environmental intelligence because the future leaders will compete on

    the basis of superior knowledge and information and also we think the high

    quality manpower is going to be the basis of competition at least for UPRVUNL

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    39/55

    as we have recommended in the mission statement. This unit will work as a brain

    of the corporation. Needless to mention that highly qualified people should be

    brought in or developed through extensive training in their respective areas. It

    will help identify future threats and opportunities and at the same deepen the

    organized and disciplined decision making which is right now in a very ad hoc

    and rudimentary form.

    Business Portfolio:

    1.

    The capacity additions through R&M, up rating and new capacity additions areprojected in tables 7-10 in the report.

    2. Consider continuous evaluations of each generating unit which can perform

    above 60% PLF with low maintenance, otherwise scrapped. We have analyzed

    below that the new capacity additions are more beneficial than renovation &

    modernization beyond certain performance point.

    3. Any future generating unit should not be below 500 MW as the new entrants will

    come with super critical plants who will threaten the leadership position ofUPRVUNL. The larger plants have higher fixed costs but lower running expenses

    and thus making smaller plants or less capacity plants as unviable in 10-15 yearstime period.

    4. Since most places land and utilities are already developed and there is ample

    scope of putting up new plants which may not face demand crunch and it should

    help UPRVUNL to maintain its leadership profitably at least until 2017. We need

    to explore new plot of land for future expansion.

    5.

    We can consider LNG based thermal plants if the LNG linkages could be tied upin the medium term.

    6. In the meantime we also explore the nonconventional energy sources for which

    we can create a new cell and recruit experienced engineers for experimentation.

    The special interest areas could be solar energy, Jatropha plant based fuel. This

    may help in getting renewable sources of energy. The technological Institutes

    may be made partner in R&D beside exploring R&D based small firms or jointpartners for exploring newer technologies (0.5% of sales could be allocated to

    this unit on new product or process development). They pay offs could be long-term

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    40/55

    7. In addition we put up at least limited resources (1%of sales) in R&D and get

    external consultants to assist in R&D lab to find ways and means of improvingoperational efficiencies in plant which look for reduction in auxiliary

    consumption in operations and examine the whole input supply chain.

    8.

    Also the planning unit can explore possible partners who can work as partners in

    joint ventures which will ease input supplies, or bring in much needed equity into

    new plants. Part of employees could be shifted to the joint venture. This will give

    a chance to bring in efficiencies in our own plant as the JVs can work and learn in

    less bureaucratic environment away from political interference or operational fire

    fighting.

    Working capital:

    It is a financial metric which represents operating liquidity available to a business,

    organization, or other entity, including governmental entity. Along with fixed assets

    such as plant and equipment, working capital is considered a part of operating capital.Net working capital is calculated as current assets minus current liabilities. It is a

    derivation of working capital, that is commonly used in valuation techniques such asDCFs (Discounted cash flows). If current assets are less than current liabilities, an entity

    has aworking capital deficiency, also called a working capital deficit.

    Net Working Capital = Current Assets Current Liabilities

    Net Operating Working Capital = Current Assets Non Interest-bearing Current Liabilities

    Equity Working Capital = Current Assets Current Liabilities Long-term Debt

    A company can be endowed with assets and profitability but short ofliquidity if its

    assets cannot readily be converted into cash. Positive working capital is required toensure that a firm is able to continue its operations and that it has sufficient funds to

    satisfy both maturing short-term debt and upcoming operational expenses. The

    management of working capital involves managing inventories, accounts receivable and

    payable, and cash.

    Calculation

    Current assets and current liabilities include three accounts which are of special

    importance. These accounts represent the areas of the business where managers have the

    most direct impact:

    accounts receivable (current asset)

    inventory (current assets), and

    accounts payable (current liability)

    The current portion ofdebt (payable within 12 months) is critical, because it represents

    a short-term claim to current assets and is often secured by long term assets. Common

    types of short-term debt are bank loans and lines of credit.

  • 8/3/2019 My Finel Report

    44/55

    An increase in working capital indicates that the business has either increased current

    assets (that is has increased its receivables, or other current assets) or has

    decreased current liabilities,for example has paid off some short-term creditors.

    Implications on M&A: The common commercial definition of working capital for the

    purpose of a working capital adjustment in an M&A transaction (i.e. for a working

    capital adjustment mechanism in a sale and purchase agreement) is equal to:Current Assets Current Liabilities excluding deferred tax assets/liabilities, excess

    cash, surplus assets and/or deposit balances.

    Cash balance items often attract a one-for-one purchase price adjustment.

    Working capital management:

    Decisions relating to working capital and short term financing are referred to as working

    capital management. These involve managing the relationship between a firm's short-

    term assets and its short-term liabilities. The goal of working capital management is to

    ensure that the firm is able to continue itsoperations and that it has sufficient cash flow

    to satisfy both maturing short-term debt and upcoming operational expenses.

    Decision criteria

    By definition, working capital management entails short term decisions - generally,

    relating to the next one year period - which are "reversible". These decisions are

    therefore not taken on the same basis as Capital Investment Decisions (NPV or related,

    as above) rather they will be based on cash flows and / or profitability.

    One measure of cash flow is provided by the cash conversion cycle - the net number

    of days from the outlay of cash for raw material to receiving payment from the

    customer. As a management tool, this metric makes explicit the inter-relatedness of

    decisions relating to inventories, accounts receivable and payable, and cash. Becausethis number effectively corresponds to the time that the firm's cash is tied up in

    operations and unavailable for other activities, management generally aims at a low

    net count.

    In this context, the most useful measure of profitability is Return on capital (ROC).

    The result is shown as a percentage, determined by dividing relevant income for the

    12 months by capital employed; Return on equity (ROE) shows this result for thefirm's shareholders. Firm value is enhanced when, and if, the return on capital, which

    results from working capital management, exceeds the cost of capital, which results

    from capital investment decisions as above. ROC measures are therefore useful as a

    management tool, in that they link short-term policy with long-term decision

    making. See Economic value added (EVA).

    Credit policy of the firm: Another factor affecting working capital management is

    credit policy of the firm. It includes buying of raw material and selling of finished

    goods either in cash or on credit. This affects the cash conversion cycle.

    Management of working capital

    Guided by the above criteria, management will use a combination of policies and

    techniques for the management of working capital. These policies aim at managing

    thecurrent assets(generally cash and cash equivalents, inventories and debtors) and theshort term financing, such that cash flows and returns are acceptable.

    Cash management. Identify the cash balance which allows for the business to meet

    day to day expenses, but reduces cash holding costs.

    Inventory management. Identify the level of inventory which allows for

    uninterrupted production but reduces the investment in raw materials - and

    minimizes reordering costs - and hence increases cash flow. Besides this, the leadtimes in production should be lowered to reduce Work in Progress (WIP) andsimilarly, the Finished Goods should be kept on as low level as possible to avoid

    over production - see Supply chain management; Just In Time (JIT); Economic order

    quantity (EOQ); Economic quantity

    Debtors management. Identify the appropriate credit policy, i.e. credit terms whichwill attract customers, such that any impact on cash flows and the cash conversion

    cycle will be offset by increased revenue and hence Return on Capital (or vice

    versa); see Discounts and allowances

    Short term financing. Identify the appropriate source of financing, given the cash

    conversion cycle: the inventory is ideally financed by credit granted by the supplier;

    however, it may be necessary to utilize a bankloan (or overdraft), or to "convert

    debtors to cash" through "factoring"
