" Company was able to deliver satisfactory results in Q4FY23 as compared to subdued performance in 9MFY23.
A message from Legacy effect of last year’s lower crushing volume and delayed start of current season coupled with untimely rains
impacted our 9MFY23 results. However, we achieved better capacity utilization across segments which helped us
the Chairman report satisfactory results in Q4FY23.
and Managing Cane crushing during the quarter was higher owing to higher cane area and better yield at farm level. During the
Director quarter Company diverted ~11% cane towards syrup route and ~65% towards B-heavy route which resulted in
higher sugar sacrifice and thereby net lower sugar recovery.
Commenting on the After two consecutive years of subdued crushing, we registered increased crushing during the season. This
performance for Q4FY23, achievement is a result of the hard work and dedication of our teams on the ground, who have been working
Mr. Vivek Saraogi, tirelessly with farmers to improve the cane quality.
Chairman and Managing
Crushing at all our mills have completed and we have ended the season with more than 15% higher crushing. We
Director, Balrampur
are hopeful of further increase in cane crushing by 10% in the next season, if not more, subject to weather
Chini Mills Limited, said: conditions.
Distillery segment also performed well during the quarter and with expanded capacity being operating at full
capacity now we are hopeful of achieving the target of ~34-35 cr BL in the next financial year.
Further Company has embarked on enhancing cane crushing capacity at its Kumbhi unit from 8000 TCD to 10000
TCD which will be entirely funded through internal accruals.
During FY2023 Company has invested more than ` 1100 crs in capex (` 466 crs through debt and balance through
internal accruals) which is expected to result in better performance going ahead.
We remain committed to creating value for all our stakeholders through prudent investment and capital allocation
plans. Keeping this commitment, an interim dividend of Rs. 2.50 per Equity Share of Re. 1 each was paid during the
year. Additionally, we commenced our 6th consecutive buy-back of equity shares on November 16, 2022, as per the
announcement made by the Board on November 9, 2022. The Company has bought back a total of 22,90,755 equity
shares, upto 31st March, 2023. The said buy-back is open till 15th May 2023”

Footnote:
• Seasonal nature of the industry.
• Lower cane availability in the sugar season 2020-21 & 2021-22 owing to weather conditions / pest attack on crop.
• Higher cane availability in the sugar season 2022-23 owing to increased cane area along with higher yield at farm level.
• The Company is actively working on varietal re-balancing of cane / disease management activities.

Outcome: In view of the aggressive diversion of cane towards B-heavy molasses route and Syrup route resulting in sacrifice of sugar for
production of Ethanol, sugar inventory is moderating which in turn is supporting the domestic sugar prices.

Policy intervention from Government
▪ FRP: Fair & Remunerative Price (FRP) of sugarcane for the sugar season 2022-23 was revised to ₹305 per quintal from ₹290 per
quintal in the previous season (linked to a basic recovery of 10.25%).
▪ SAP: State Advised Price (SAP) of sugarcane for the sugar season 2022-23 remained unchanged. In sugar season 2021-22
the state of Uttar Pradesh increased the SAP by Rs. 25 to Rs. 350 per quintal for early variety of cane, revised after a period of 4
years.
▪ MSP: Minimum Selling Price (MSP) of sugar was first fixed at Rs. 29 per kg in June 2018 and later increased to Rs. 31 per kg in
February 2019. MSP is the ex-factory price (excluding GST and transportation charges) below which no mill can sale sugar in
India. However, the prevailing selling price of sugar is much above the MSP.
▪ Stock Holding: Along with MSP, stock holding limits on mills regulates the supply of sugar in domestic market which in turn
provides stability to the domestic prices.
▪ Export: Export of sugar continues to attract zero customs duty. Export quota for sugar season 2022-23 announced for 6.1
million metric tonnes.

▪ Import: A higher customs duty continues on import of sugar.


▪ Soft Loans: Soft loans through banks for encouraging new distillery capacities or the augmentation of existing capacities, which
facilitate higher ethanol production and reduces surplus sugar by diversion through B-heavy molasses and cane juice/sugar syrup
to ethanol.
▪ Taxes: A lower GST of 5% on ethanol.
The above interventions by both the Central Government and the State Government reflects a clear shift in the mind-set of
policy makers which augurs well for the industry
Still some measures need to be taken to enable the industry to become self-sufficient viz. increase in MSP and higher prices
of Ethanol from Syrup/Juice to encourage capex and allow mills to have desired level of returns on investments

Central Government approved the National Policy on Biofuels to achieve 20% blending of Ethanol in petrol. Key benefits highlighted by the government include:
Take care of surplus sugar (target to sacrifice ~6 million tonnes of sugar by 2025-26)
Employment generation

Reduce import dependency of fuels (savings of ~$4 billion forex i.e. more than Rs. 30,000 crs.)
Health benefits
Cleaner environment through E20 fuel Carbon Monoxide emissions will be 50% lower in two-wheelers
and 30% lower in four-wheelers. Hydrocarbon emissions will be 20% lower in both Municipal Solid Waste Management
Additional income to farmers, Infrastructural investment in rural areas

In January 2021, the target of achieving 20% Ethanol-blending with petrol was preponed to 2025. For the same, the country will need to produce ~1016 crore litres of Ethanol

E20 fuel at ~100 retail outlets has been launched to fast track the 20% blending percentage.

UPERC had reduced the tariff for power w.e.f. 1st April 2019 which resulted in lower revenue and
profit.
The same is being contested and presently the case is lying with Hon’ble High Court at Allahabad.
Next date for hearing is yet to be fixed.
Owing to reduced power tariff, Company has decided to operate Cogen plants for lower number of

During June 2018, Central Government introduced the concept of Minimum Selling Price (MSP) of sugar.
This policy change/intervention resulted in sustainable revenues and profit while negating variations and induced cyclicality.
