30TH ANNUAL REPORT 2015-2016

CHAIRMANS MESSAGE
Dear Shareholders,
Despite the sheer drop in crude oil and commodity prices, the global scenario continues on low
growth trail. The IMF projects global growth to be increased from 3.1% in 2015 to 3.2% in 2016 and
increasing to 3.5% in 2017. Growth in the emerging markets in 2016 overall is projected at 4.1%
and much of it coming from China, India and the ASEAN region. The path ahead for the global
economy remains challenging, with greater uncertainties thrown in.
For 2016-17, GDP growth is expected at 7.5%. The data indicates 5.7% year-on-year growth in core
sector industries, against growth of 2.3% last year. The growth in the manufacturing sector has
been subdued, including a decline in the output of capital goods.
India has become the worlds 3rd largest producer of crude steel in 2015 against its 8th position in 2003. Besides achieving the rank of
the 3rd largest global crude steel producer in 2015, India has also made a mark globally in the production of sponge iron/direct reduced
iron (DRI).
The growth of steel industry is closely linked to the growth of the Indian economy. With the challenging macro-economic situation in the
country, steel industry is yet to improve. In recent years, the steel industry has been impacted by import oversupply, lower demand,
falling spreads between finished steel prices and raw material prices and volatile currency movements.
With eroding profitability and worsening leverage ratios, the Government of India has intervened and undertook necessary corrective
trade remedial measures. The objective was to provide a level playing field to the domestic steel industry. The Government enhanced
customs duty and introduced the minimum import price (MIP) mechanism to curb imports at prices below marginal cost of exporting
nations. The Government also introduced BIS standards for steel to control sales of inferior quality steel into India.
Despite the aforesaid challenges, Indias long-term outlook for the steel sector appears bright. The Government of India is aiming to scale
up the countrys steel production to 300 million tonnes by 2025. It is taking relevant steps to bolster the growth of the sector. Some of
the initiatives comprise setting up of the Steel Research and Technology Mission of India to spearhead research and development
activities; and establishing Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) with four iron ore rich states to set up plants having capacity between 3 and
8 MTPA.
In the Union Budget 2016-17, the Government of India has proposed to spend ` 218,000 Crores on roads and railways. In addition,
Indias automobile industry witnessed a rebound in demand among emerging economies. Such a scenario augurs well for the domestic
steel sector.
The raw material situation in the country has changed dramatically in the last two years and the economy is on the revival path. This is
expected to change the profitability of the steel business going forward.
Notwithstanding dismal growth in domestic steel industry your company has managed to improve results as compare to last financial year
by clocking in a sales turnover of ` 1866.66 crores. This has been combined result of cost management in every areas like inventory
management, repair and maintenance, logistics as well as focus on efficiency improvement and achieving higher productivity. With trying
to achieve excellence in operation your company has also strengthened its focus on customers.
The company has already settled substantial portion of its outstanding debt and also started paying scheduled dues since March 2015 to
ARCs and Banks. In the present difficult scenario of the steel industry, our approach towards banks indicates companys seriousness
towards settling of its liabilities.
On behalf of the board, thank you as the shareholders of the company for your support and motivation to the Company during the year.
I would also like to thank the lenders, suppliers, customers, various national and provincial governments with whom we have been
working, the employees and the associates who have stood by the company and I took forward to their continued support in the future.
Mukesh Bhandari
Chairman

III. Other Information:
(1) Reasons for loss:
1. The company started facing problems in sourcing of its key raw material (iron ore) due to various issues in the state of
Karnataka including ban of iron ore mining by Supreme Court. All the steel making units, especially the ones operating in
West and South India, were severely impacted on account of this.
2. The companys profitability took a severe beating and the company incurred large cash losses post March 2011 both on
account of lower capacity utilization and sourcing of expensive raw material through imports.
3. Due to the non-availability of iron ore and reduced realizations of products, the company was not able to utilize the plant
at optimum capacity which resulted in increased operating cost and low output.
4. The company also suffered financial stress due to Interest rate hikes which increased from 10% to 14% between 2008 to
2011 due to frequent RBI intervention to control inflation.
5. The company was facing serious liquidity crunch due to which it is unable to fully utilize its steel and pipe making
capacities.
(2) Steps taken or proposed to be taken for improvement
1. The demand for the steel products has been gradually improving now. The iron ore situation has also improved significantly
on account of lifting of ban from A category and certain B category mines by the supreme court of India.
2. The steps taken by the Government to reduce the export of iron ore through imposition of export duty has started yielding
positive results. Production of bellets is on the rise, some through beneficiation and others directly. This has substantially
eased the raw material situation for our steel unit.
3. The demand for DI pipes is pretty robust. This has also seen price improvements in this area on account of improved
demand.
4. The company has reduced the employee cost substantially through manpower optimization steps and this should bring
down the fixed cost in the steel and pipe division.
5. The new products introduced by the company including small High Speed Modular Caster (HSMC), ERF using patented
EldFOS process and pollution control equipment in the last few years have started gaining traction in the market. This
should help the company not only to improve its sales but also profits in the Engineering & Projects division.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT
OVERVIEW OF ECONOMY / OUTLOOK:
The steel producers in India have not been able to perform up to the mark owing to the highly volatile market dynamics, cheaper import
and a weak or a muted demand situation for steel and steel products. We have seen most large steel companies suffer on account of this
and bleed red in last few fiscal years.
The Government of India has undertaken various initiatives to combat this situation especially by taking measures to curb the import and
try and push the demand of steel through various initiatives like Smart Cities, Housing for all, Power for All for 24x7 by 2019, along with
the necessary infrastructure investment. Around ` 220,000 crore of investments are expected to come in this year as per the announcement
in the Union Budget. The government has made efforts to check this through steps like anti-dumping duty, safeguard duty on imported
steel products and a policy announcement on the minimum import price (MIP). All these factors will surely lead to an increase in the
demand for steel. The government has planned a massive investment of about US$1.2 trillion over the next 20 years across areas such as
transportation, energy and public security to build smart cities in India, it will give a boost to the steel demand in the country.
There is a great deal of turmoil in the global steel industry, wherein each steelmaker, reeling under the prolonged downturn of the
industry is making efforts to stay operational. The company needs to maximize its capacity utilization which must be supported by robust
demand.
The silver lining to all this downturn is that the steel consumption has increased by 4.5% to 80.5 million ton in the last fiscal year. This
is a reasonably good rise in spite of negative growth in global steel consumption as well as in China. World Steel Association has
forecasted that Indias steel demand is expected to grow by 5.4% to 83.8 million ton in 2016 on the back of low oil prices and reform
momentum.
India with 89.6 million tons of crude steel production in 2015 has become the third largest in the world after China and Japan. The
estimated growth of 5.4% in 2016 & 2017 and planned capacity expansion in the public and private sector steel companies may lead
India to emerge as a second largest crude steel producer in the years to come. There is a huge scope for growth for steel industry in India
owing to low per capita steel consumption and expected rise in demand due to increased infrastructure, construction and auto and
railways sector. The outlook for the domestic industry looks bright.
INDUSTRY STRUCTURE & DEVELOPMENTS:
A. Engineering & Projects Division:
Engineering & Projects division primarily undertakes turnkey projects worldwide for iron & steel melting making facility up to 0.5
Million TPA production capacities with indigenous technology. The growth of Engineering & Projects division is very closely linked
with the progress of steel industry. The steel production stood at around 90 MTPA in 2015-16 with a projected growth of about 7 %
in coming year with a government focus on infrastructure development. The total outlay for infrastructure in Budget 2016-17 stands
at ` 221,246 crore (US$ 32.8 billion), which is expected to generate much needed demand for steel industry.
Further, the government has drawn ambitious plan for steel production to go up to 300 MTPA by 2025 which is at present around 90
MTPA. This necessitates the addition of capacity to meet the demand forecasted for steel product over coming 10 years. With
increase in demand, secondary steel sector will grow faster due to lower gestation period and lower capital investment compare to
primary route besides remain competitive over primary route. Mini steel plant projects based on Induction furnace route up to 0.5
Million TPA capacities will continue to remain in a good demand over coming 5 to 7 years.
The company has dispatched large capacity steel melting furnace of 365,550 KW which is totaling to around 4 million tons of
installed capacity addition in FY 2015-16. The trend is continuing and we see good capacity addition for induction furnace based
steel melting route. Our latest refining technology (ERF ELdFOS) will allow Induction Furnace based plants to compete with EAF
based plants and even primary producers as far as quality of steel produced is concerned. With increasing demand, the primary
producers will go back to producing flat products while the demand for the long products will be met by secondary producers thereby,
improving the demand for induction melting furnaces.
The fume extraction and cleaning system introduced last year has established its effectiveness and got certified by Goa State
Pollution Control Board. Due to increasing awareness about environment and benefits of increased operating efficiency on account
of clean working atmosphere in steel making plants, this custom-designed product is gaining popularity. This has created good
business opportunity of upgrading the existing plant with advanced pollution control system apart from supplying with new equipment.
In line billet heaters has also proved its credibility by way of saving huge energy by facilitating direct rolling. This has opened up
new business opportunity in existing rolling mills having capacity of 70 to 100 tons/hour wherein about ` 1,000 to 1,200 per ton
can be saved by adopting direct rolling through ELECTROTHERM inline induction heater technology.
35
The introduction of high speed caster which has made practically possible the direct rolling of billets and has gained wide acceptance
in the industry due to substantial saving in production cost of rolling by way of saving of fuel and reduction of burning losses which
is incurred in the billet reheating furnaces. This has also reduced the CO2 emission and promoting clean environment. Higher
capacity caster which can cast billets up to 200 mm square was also introduced last year looking at the upcoming plants in the
capacity range of 250,000 to 350,000 ton/year.
The company will continue to invest a sizeable amount into R&D activities to develop innovative and import substitute products for
iron & steel making industry, foundry and heat treatment sector using years of experience and domain expertise gained so far.
B. Steel Division:
With the Indian economy displaying a stable growth trend at the present, the company is optimistic about increase in the domestic
demand owing to the various initiatives supported by the government. The demand is expected to pick up owing to increase in
development in the infrastructure and construction sectors supported by increasing FDI projects in the country. Also the auto
recycling market is expected to pick up which will ultimately result in increase in demand.
Ductile Iron Pipe Division:
Despite a subdued market environment, the company recorded a strong performance in its Ductile Iron Pipe Division due to improved
capacity utilization as compared to the last fiscal year. The demand for DI pipes is expected to increase in the coming few quarters.
However, we have seen a downward trend in the price of DI pipe due to lower price of raw materials and stiff competition from other
manufacturers. The long term outlook for DI pipes is encouraging with several states planning execution of mega water supply and
sewage projects. The companys order book looks healthy for the current fiscal year.
C. Electric Vehicle Division:
The Electric Vehicle Division has witnessed a resurgence of the market in the FY 2015-16. While the sales of 2Wheelers have seen a
sharp growth over the previous year, the introduction of 3Wheelers has also seen impressive sales numbers in the first year itself.
This is the direct reflection of Government of Indias initiative to promote Electric Vehicles through the introduction of National
Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020 (NEMMP 2020) and FAME India Scheme.
E-Rickshaw Market:
In the recent past, the market of E-Rickshaws has grown exponentially in India, with strong markets in North and East India. The
market, which was largely dominated by unorganized small traders till last year has seen a definite shift towards organized sector
with ARAI/ICAT approved vehicles. Also, new markets are emerging and the markets are gradually encompassing the Tier-3 and Tier-
4 towns, as well, besides the metros and other major towns. Now, with the evolvement of approved and authorized manufacturers,
the E-rickshaw market in getting stabilized and PSU banks are also looking at this market, with interest. ET manufactured E-
Rickshaws, E-TAXE, are receiving very good acceptance on the strength of its superior quality and 100% made in India power train.
E-Cart Market:
In this Financial Year, The Company has introduced the Indias first ICAT approved E-Cart model, under the brand name of E-Winner.
The product has been well accepted in the market. This model will fill the gap that exists between the conventional diesel/CNG
driven 3Wheelers and the non-mechanized mode of goods transportation. We expect this load carrying vehicle category to create a
new paradigm of business opportunities and market.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT ON INTERNAL FINANCIAL CONTROLS
Independent Auditors Report of even date to the members of ELECTROTHERM (INDIA) LIMITED on the standalone financial statements
for the year ended March 31, 2016.
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Act
1. We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Electrotherm (India) Limited (the Company) as of March
31, 2016 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Managements Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
2. The Companys management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control
over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the
Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
India (ICAI). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that
were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to companys policies, the
safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records,
and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.
3. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the
Guidance Note) and the Standards on Auditing deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act to the extent applicable to
an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and both issued by the ICAI. Those
Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such
controls operated effectively in all material respects.
4. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over
financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining
an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing
and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend
on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error.
5. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the
Companys internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
6. A companys internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. A companys internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that
(a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of
the assets of the company;
(b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and
(c) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
7. Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections
of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal
financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
58
Opinion
8. In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, except otherwise stated in the financial statements, an adequate internal
financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively
as at March 31, 2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the
essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
