Factors influencing Indian growth in imports Macro Economics
• GDP Growth • Favorable Demographics • Per Capita Consumption of Electricity • Reduction in import duty
Micro Economics • Supply – Demand mismatch • Controlled Mining Regime • Quality of indigenous Coal
Environmental Factors • Limitations of use of High Ash, High Sulphur Coals • Expensive cost of local logistics

Non-coking Coal Originations for India
SHORT TERM
Largest exporter of steam Coal, ~300Mt in 2012
Low Ash low Sulphur Coal, suitable for power generation
Inland waterways and floating cranes allow multiple loading points
Regulatory changes could be potential impediment
LONG TERM
Significant untapped coal reserves
Close proximity to India gives freight advantage
Suitable for blending with Indian coal, with low Ash disposal
Environmentally friendly
SHORT TERM
South African exports well established in the international market
Exports through Richards Bay Coal Terminal, only major export option with capacity of upto 91Mt
Railway capacity is bottleneck at 70Mt annual throughput
LONG TERM
Limited scope for growth
Inadequate railway infrastructure
Port owned by consortium of producers – significant entry barrier for new investors

SUPPLY SECURITY – CHALLENGES & STRATEGIES
Why Supply security ?
Long Term Security
Equity Model Off-take
Model
Infrastructure Investment Terms
Regulatory Framework Mining
Equity
Key Challenges to Investments " Conflicts between mining operations and Forestry regulations
" Lack of Coordination between Central and provincial Govts
" Confusions over implementation of mining law
" Land Acquisition
" Improving competitiveness of taxation and royalty system
" Security of assets, people and ownership rights
" Interference from Taxation authorities
" Corruption, Collusion and Nepotism
Quantity/ Duration
Pricing/ Cost Plus
Regulatory Framework Flexibility
Off-take
Key Challenges to Off-takes
" Uncertainty over regulatory frame work on minimum pricing
" Possible bans/restrictions on Low Rank Coals
" Infrastructure development to get the coal from mine to loading points in time
" Availability of Floating Cranes/Floating terminals
" Competitiveness of the Mining Cost/Transport Cost to sustain the low price regime prevailing currently
" Weak legal framework to enforce contractual defaults
Strategies for Supply Security
" Tie-ups with key suppliers is important for growth
" Relationship based model
" Supplier benefits from the Brand recognition in the destination market
" Win-win pricing model
" Volume commitments in the right CVs
To Conclude…
" While India face a few short term issues, the fundamentals for strong and sustained growth are in place.
" Power sector reforms need to be accelerated but private players drive growth in generation side.
" Tata International hopes to play a significant role in India’s Power Sector growth story.
" Kalimantan Coal makes an obvious choice for India however Kalimantan bituminous Coal will continue to face high competition from other sources like South Africa, USA and Australian coal
" Kalimantan Low Rank Coal will face competition from Sumatra and domestic coal prices in India
" To help alleviate negative perception, there should be a stop to draft regulations which only force potential investors and long term buyers wary of further commitments.
