“Your company continues its focus on speeding up project execution, improving service & quality standards, reducing material cost as well as indigenous technology development.”
Dr. Nalin Shinghal
opening
“an Important milestones were achieved in project execution during the year including successful commissioning of 800 kV, 6,000 MW UHVDC link between the Western Region Grid and the Southern Region Gnd.”
Dr. Nalin Shinghal
qa
“Yes, we should expect it to pick up because at the moment the state and the private sector ordering has not yet happened and there are deadlines there.”
Dr. Nalin Shinghal
qa
“But are you seeing the signs of, you know, the ordering picking up material in a sense, can we expect around 20-30 Gigawatt of FGD ordering in FY 23?”
Dr. Nalin Shinghal
qa
“Out of that, approximately 110 Gigawatt, that is 1,10,000 Megawatt of the sets have already been finalized and we have a market share of 30%, but going forward, we might feel a dampener there because now the other tender in the market, which is, or let's say inquiry from the SEBs and NTPC and likes of NTPC.”

“Anything else that you expect coming here?”
Dr. Nalin Shinghal

“231 Crores for the next year, but if you're looking at specific areas, then we are already looking at for ISRO for tankages.”
Dr. Nalin Shinghal
qa
“And, if you're looking at the long term, the major areas we are already, taking up CapEx for the ISRO tankages, which will be almost Rs.”
Dr. Nalin Shinghal
qa
“And in addition to that, there will be substantial CapEx required in the coal gasification side.”
Risks & concerns — 6 flagged
Overall, the company achieved an EBIDTA of more than Rs 1,100 Crores despite the significant pressure on margins due to sharp spike in metal prices and increase in other material and fuel costs.

— Subodh Gupta
So that is really one added challenge and risk for the company.
— Subodh Gupta
So, essentially to sum it up, that is a major concern area and we are trying to mitigate that through engineering efforts, as well as procurement efforts from both sides.
— Rahul Gajare
For example, we had difficult payment terms in Patratu and some FGD projects also but for new tenders of NTPC like Talcher, payments terms have been amended in tender documents.

While, this is likely to result in substantial opportunities in the Hydro and Nuclear sectors, at the same time, in view of India’s huge coal reserves and lack of 011 and gas rese
