India’s total steel exports increased by 74% in two years over FY20 to FY22 to 20.5 million tonnes, which led to improved capacity utilization of the steel industry to 83% in FY22 from 79% in FY20. The export tax will also reduce the margins on steel exports, which were attractive for the last one year. Indian companies had been gaining after lower exports from China due to its de-carbonisation drive; and higher energy prices in Europe, as per Axis Securities. “The move would impact the export plans of the domestic steel industry which was planning to put capex to enhance its steel production capacity and increase its share in the global export trade to capitalize on China disincentivizing its steel exports,” said Axis Securities. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none; table-layout: fixed; width: 468pt;"><colgroup></colgroup><col /><col /><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Companies </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Export share </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">JSPL </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">35% </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">JSW Steel </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">31% </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Tata Steel </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">14% </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">SAIL </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">9% </td></tr></tbody></table>(Axis Securities) The brokerage firm has slashed target price of Tata Steel to ₹1,390 per share from ₹1,700 earlier. It also downgraded SAIL to Hold from Buy while cutting its target price to ₹75 from ₹125 earlier. Analysts assume that the producers’ exports will reduce by 50%. “This will lead to increased steel supply in the domestic market which will lead to reduction in domestic steel prices,” Ashish Kejriwal, research analyst at Centrum. He assumes ₹5,000 per tonne reduction in domestic steel prices owing to increased supply in the domestic market. “The move will severely impact domestic steel prices and in turn profitability of steel players, given elevated coking coal prices. We believe lower earnings would impact growth capex, increase debt on the books and lower steel sector valuation,” said a report by Sharekhan.

Tata Steel, JSW, SAIL and JSPL will lose half of their export biz as government wages war on inflation

Mumbai, Feb 4 () JSW Energy on Tuesday reported over twofold rise in net profit to Rs 394 crore for the December 2019 quarter, boosted by Rs 454-crore one-time income. The company, which had clocked a Rs 146-crore net profit in the December 2018 quarter, had a tax write-back of Rs 277 crore and a contingent consideration write-back of Rs 177 crore. Its total income fell to Rs 2,106 crore from Rs 2,491 crore as demand was subdued, reflecting the broader economy that has been in the dumps since the beginning of the financial year. "It has been a challenging quarter as power demand declined almost 6.2 per cent, mainly due to poor economic activity. While October witnessed a 13 per cent decline in demand as against a 12 per cent increase last year, November and December were relatively better," JSW Energy joint MD and CEO Prashant Jain told reporters. He added that the company has already seen the bottom in the demand slowdown. "As the economy is expected to bottom out, we will see a revival in the demand." The firm's total expenses also dropped to Rs 1,864 crore as against Rs 2,271 crore in the October-December quarter of 2018-19, mainly on the back of decline in fuel cost, which was a result of moderation in the imported coal prices and lower generation. Explaining the write-back gain on contingent consideration, Jain said the company has written off Rs 570 crore of loan to Jai Prakash Venture Ltd (JPVL), which has been adjusted against reversal of the existing provision of Rs 454 crore and a write-back of Rs 177 crore of JPVL contingent consideration payables in the company's books, resulting in a net gain of Rs 61.46 crore in third quarter of the current financial year. "The debt restructuring agreement with JPVL now stands completed as we have acquired a five per cent equity stake in the firm, in addition to Rs 120 crore continuing as loan repayable from JPVL to the company," Jain added. He also said both JPVL and JSW have agreed to forego their respective rights and obligations in relation to the securities purchase agreement signed in 2015 for transfer of Karcham and Baspa hydro assets. On the acquisition of GMR Kamalanga Energy of 1,050 megawatts (MW), he said the discussions are progressing well between the company and GMR Energy for an expeditious closure and it hopes to sign the transaction in a couple of weeks. "For Ind-Barath Energy (Utkal) of 700 MW, the approval by the National Company Law Tribunal is under process for the resolution plan submitted by the company. Given the time taken for these resolutions, we expect it to be completed by June this year," he added. During the quarter, the company completed the transfer of JSW Energy (Kutehr) to JSW Hydro Energy, wholly-owned subsidiary. Short-term sales during the quarter were lower at 541 million units as compared to 1,112 million units in the third quarter of 2018-19 due to lower short-term sales at both Ratnagiri and Vijayanagar plants. Commenting on the announcements made by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in the Budget, Jain said the structural reforms and emphasis on smart metering will ensure improvement in recovery by distribution companies and cash flow to generators.

After the bloodbath witnessed by the markets last week, the Union Budget brought a much-needed relief by giving the middle class a vital stimulus in the form of tax breaks. The tax bonanza will increase the disposable income in the hands of the common taxpayer, boosting consumer spending and benefitting sectors like retail, FMCG and autos, analysts say. Apart from a tax bonanza, the FM also proposed a capital expenditure outlay of ₹10 lakh crore for FY2024, up from ₹7.5 lakh crore last year.

of applications using 5G services in areas including smart classrooms, healthcare and smart cities are positive for top two telecom companies like Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, says ICICI Securities. A capital outlay of ₹2.4 lakh crore proposed for the railways sector in the budget will also aid metal companies, say analysts. Positive on ITC despite surge in NCCD Despite a 16% increase in national calamity contingent duty (NCCD) for certain cigarettes, analysts are positive the higher duty will not impact volumes much. “We believe the surge in NCCD will not have a material impact on overall cigarette volume growth for the industry as it implies only a 1-2% price rise. We are positive on ITC and expect the volume growth for the company to remain stable, going ahead, “ said Preeyam Tolia, senior research analyst, FMCG &amp; retail at Axis Securities. Auto sector has lots to celebrate Further, the auto industry also has a reason to celebrate since the budget has removed custom duty on capital goods imported for the manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicles (EVs). The move is to reduce the cost of EVs in the country. A proposed reduction of basic customs duty rates on goods other than agriculture and textiles from 21% to 13% is seen as another positive, while the relief in taxes is also expected to boost consumer spending by salaried consumers. Also, the finance minister said that more funds would be allocated towards scrapping old vehicles by the central government. "In addition to the vehicle scrappage policy announced in Budget 2021-22, more funds have been allocated now to support efforts to scrap old vehicles under the central government. States will also be supported to help them scrap old vehicles and old ambulances," said Sitharaman in her budget speech. This is seen boosting the commercial vehicles industry. The significantly higher capex allocation will support the commercial vehicles industry and will be positive for multi-axle vehicles and tippers, said Crisil. “Increase in spending on infrastructure, setting up of 50 new airports and heliports, creation of 100 transport infrastructure projects are welcome moves, in addition to the central support for replacing old vehicles. All of these should drive consumption and overall demand of vehicles," said Banwari Lal Sharma, CEO, consumer business at CarTrade Tech. Hotel stocks are among favourites Shares of hotel companies rose on Wednesday after the finance minister announced that the government will promote tourism in the country. "Promotion of tourism will be taken up on mission mode with the active participation of states, the convergence of government programs &amp; public-private partnerships," said Sitharaman in her budget speech. There is a large potential to be tapped in tourism. The sector holds huge opportunities for jobs and entrepreneurship for youths, she added. “There is a huge thrust on the tourism sector in the budget. 50 domestic destinations will be selected and uplifted. Domestic tourism will be promoted as an alternative to international tourism. We have seen Samhi Hotels, Oyo, Ixigo planning their IPO in 2023. If you look at Easemytrip, which got listed in 2021 has created huge wealth for investors (and is) also announcing high growth in topline and bottomline,” said Manish Khanna, co-founder at Unlisted Assets. The special push to the tourism sector is expected to bring more companies from the tourism sector to the listed space. “We would see many companies in this sector going in for IPO from the unlisted space. Some of the burn companies like Oyo are also expected to be operationally profitable in FY23, which is a huge positive coming out from covid downturn,” said Khanna. However, one thing that will have a negative impact on the tourism industry is the move to increase the tax collected at source (TCS) mandate from 5% to 20% on overseas tour packages. “This will not only increase the upfront cash outflow for customers but will also give an unfair advantage to foreign-based online travel booking platforms over India-based travel agents and tour operators,” said Rajesh Magow, co-founder and group CEO of MakeMyTrip. <div type="javascript" title="Custom" contenttype="Image"><cdata><![CDATA[<blockquote class="stocktwits-embedded-post" data-origin="https://stocktwits.com" data-id="509507865"> ₹15,000 Cr allocated over three years under Schedule Tribe Mission towards:🔶 Safe housing and 🔶 Infrastructure development towards RoadPM Awas Yojana fund increased by 66% YoY ₹79,000 Cr allocated for FY24 to boost demand of cables and wiresFarm Credit Limit for FY24 raised to ₹20 Lakh Cr, beneficial for Agrochem and Seed companiesTo enhance indigenous production for lab grown diamonds and reduce import dependency,Financial support to be provided to IITs for research and developmentPositive for gems and Jewellery sectorStocks to watch$TITAN.NSE $GOLDIAM.NSE $PCJEWELLER.NSE $NIFTY50.NSE &mdash; (@KhapreVishal) <a href="https://stocktwits.com/KhapreVishal/message/509507865"> February 01, 2023</a></blockquote><script async src="https://stocktwits.com/min/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></cdata></div> SEE ALSO: <a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="https://www.businessinsider.in/budget/news/evs-that-import-parts-to-get-costlier-as-budget-gives-a-boost-to-in-house-manufacturing/articleshow/97529239.cms">EVs that import parts to get costlier as Budget gives a boost to in-house manufacturing</a> <a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="https://www.businessinsider.in/budget/news/income-tax-bonanza-capex-push-to-green-energy-budget-2023-summarised/slidelist/97527360.cms">Income tax bonanza, capex push to green energy: Budget 2023 summarised</a>

New Delhi, Nov 27 () Indian companies should purchase stake in Russian coal companies operating in its far east region in order to bring down the coal price and improve their port capacity to handle large ships, said a senior official of Far East Investment and Export Agency (FEIEA) on Tuesday.
 Currently, Indian steel and energy companies such as Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL), Tata Steel, JSW, Adani Group, and Jindal Steel and Power Limited (JSPL) have shown interest in importing total nine million tonnes of coal annually from the Russian firms operating in the far east region.
 However, Indian companies have raised issues related to high price of coal, lack of port capacity to handle big ships, etc.
 Executives of the Indian companies met senior Russian officials such as Nikolay Kudashev, Russian ambassador to India, and Leonid Petukhov, CEO, Far East Investment and Export Agency (FEIEA) on Tuesday in the presence of Union Petroleum and Steel Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
 After the meeting, when asked if the issues related to high coal prices in far east region of Russia were discussed during the meeting with Indian companies, Petukhov told reporters, "Yes, this issue was raised...Whatever the prices are, they are big always for the buyer, and small always for the seller. Given the turbulence, I think the high prices are bad for steel makers and good for the coal producers."
 "For me, the only way on how to basically stabilise it is to get the equity, to get the share. The steel company, through whatever facility, (should) buy equity stake in the producer of the Russian coal," he said.
 Most of the coking coal companies operating in far east region of Russia are publicly listed companies.
 According to Petukhov, Indian steel companies also raised the issue that it needs ports where big ships can come to take coal as it will bring cost down.
 "Most of the Russian coal producers have ports ...In order to bring the costs down, you need to invest money in the ports. So, bringing this equity is very important so that these things (coal costs and logistics) can be synchronised," he added.
 In September this year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that USD one billion line-of-credit for the development of Russian far east region.
 Petukhov said, "My dream is to have an equity participation of Indian companies into Russian existing producers, where the money would not be taken from the (Russian) company, and would rather be utilised to develop the (Russian) company and its ports."
 When asked if Indian steel companies can buy majority stake in such companies, he said, "It depends on the size. It depends on the particular case."
 He said that a committee chaired by the Russian Prime Minister decides if such an investment can be permitted. This committee looks at different criteria - type of the mineral or natural resource, size of the deposits, etc - according to Petukhov.
 On the issue of Indian companies showing interest in doing such investments in coking coal companies in far-east region of Russia, he said, "I would never say yes or no because they are mostly public companies. It will influence their stock performance. I am not allowed to do that."
 "But, I would say this much, should they not be interested, we would not be sitting here discussing (the matters)," he added.
 As Indian steel companies have been trying to find the right mix between India coking coal and Russian coking coal, Petukhov informed that a few shipments of the coal have come to India from far-east of Russia for this purpose only.
 "This was the goal of this exercise of sending these first shipments. And we were informed today that yes...they (Indian companies) have found the right use. So, basically what happens is that they add Russian coal to the existing mix, and couple of reports stated that it was successful," he added. DSP SMN
