Pellet production was down 2% QoQ at 150k tons. 600ktpa pellet plant at Raipur continues to operate at 100% capacity utilization. Another 600ktpa pellet plant under its subsidiary, Ardent steel produced 71k (down 3% QoQ) of pellets in 3QFY12. Iron ore production declined sharply due to extended monsoon in October followed by local logistics issue. However production has return to normal levels in December 2011 end. Sponge iron ore production declined 5% QoQ to 77k tons due to limited availability of low cost captive iron ore. As a result, sales volumes also declined 34% QoQ to 28k tons during the quarter.

Cutting FY13 EPS by 9% and lowering iron ore mining output to 474kt; Maintain Buy We expect pellet realization to remain at elevated levels due to shortage of DRI grade iron ore in India. Ramp up in pellet production in Ardent steel along with superior margins in pellet business will drive earnings. We expect consolidated earnings to grow at a cagr of 26% over FY11-13E on the back of stronger volume growth from the pellet plants and higher mine production. However we are lowering our mining output assumption to 474kt from earlier 601kt due to risk to production from local issues. The stock is trading at a P/E of 2.4x FY12E and EV/EBITDA of 3.3x FY12E.

Godawari Power & Ispat: an investment profile Company description Godawari Power and Ispat (GODPI) is a mid-sized integrated player that produces steel through the sponge iron route and generates captive power (from waste gases produced at its kilns) to feed its induction furnaces. GODPI's product slate includes sponge iron, steel billets, steel wires, wire rods and ferro alloys and it has been allotted coal and iron ore mines as well. It doubled capacity of sponge iron to 495,000tpa and that of steel billets to 400,000tpa and has a 53MW CPP with an additional 20MW biomass-based power plant. Key investment arguments GODPI's 0.6mtpa pellet plant, which converts ironore fines into pellets, is operating at 100% capacity, well after technological modification in 1HFY11. Captive iron-ore production is also ramping up. Self sufficiency in iron ore, sale of surplus pellets and recovery of sponge iron prices will expand margins of the steel segment. A 0.6mtpa pellet unit in a 75% subsidiary (Ardent Steel) was commissioned in 1HFY11. This plant, located in Barbil, will add growth to consolidated earnings over the next few years. Key investment risks Earnings are highly leveraged to sponge iron and steel prices.

Maintain Buy. Sector view Global steel demands still remains subdued due to European economic problems and slow down in construction in China. Certain raw material side issues have prevented costs correction for steel mills thereby forcing them to cut production. Global crude steel production is down 11% to 115m tons in November 2011 from peak production of 130m tons in May 2011 largely driven by China. Global economic growth slow down more particularly in China continues to cloud demand outlook. Indian real steel demand too has slowed down growing only 4.2% YoY to 45.2m tons during April- November 2011. We believe Indian demand will still grow 7-8% over couple of years. Depreciation of INR against USD and appreciating Yuan has increased competitiveness of Indian producer's vis-à-vis their Chinese counterparts, therefore lowering Chinese imports threat.
