2018-19 H1 Key Operational Highlights
Distillery:
•
BCL Industries Limited
(Formerly known as BCL Industries &
Infrastructures Ltd.)
The Company's performance in the current quarter was affected on account of the partial closure of its state-of-the-art
Distillery Unit at Bathinda for converting part of its capacity to Ethanol. The Company has already bagged the tender to
supply to the tune of 3.04 Cr litres for the period 1st December 2018 to 30th November 2019. The Distillery unit shall
commence supply of ethanol from 1st December 2018 and is expected to register around 18% higher PLR (Per litre Rate).
Because of the Government of India's initiative to encourage distilleries to divert the ENA production to Ethanol, the
Company has already started earning higher realisations of about 8% from its balance capacity of ENA production of 3.6 Cr
litres, which is further expected to surge by 8% in the upcoming quarter.
The Company is also working simultaneously on its 200 KLPD Plant at Kharagpur, WB under its subsidiary Svaksha Distillery
Limited and is expecting to commence production by September 2019. The turnkey contract of the project has been
awarded to Praj Industries Ltd.
Edible Oil:
•
The Company has remained consistent in the Edible Oil segment in terms of sales revenue, registering a hike of about 27%
in PBT from 2017-18 H1, which was backed by the reforms introduced by the Government of India in the agricultural
sector. These reforms also included announcement of higher MSPs to an average tune of 1.5 times and the government's
focus on increasing palm oilseeds cultivation.
The Company has also strategically opted part of its Ethanol supply in Gujarat to reduce its logistic costs while importing
vegetable oil from Kandla Port for processing at its Edible Oil plant in Bathinda, which is expected to reduce its logistics cost
for the segment by 50% while setting a two-way traffic.
Real Estate:
BCL's Real Estate segment, which opened the FY 2018-19 with ready to move in stock of about INR 100 Cr, has registered
remarkable sales in 2018-19 H1 with a revenue surge of 1000 times in comparison to the previous year's half yearly
revenue. The Q2 sales was also boosted with the acquisition of a small parcel of land from its ready-to-move-in township
Project 'Ganpati Enclave' for the extension of NH 60, for which the National Highway Authority of India awarded a
compensation of INR 11.84 Cr. In its attempt to reduce the financial burden of the company, BCL will be utilising partial
revenues from its real estate sales.View entire presentation
