Capacity Enhancement

Manganese ore production capacity has been enhanced from 0.28 MTPA to 0.46 MTPA, with subsequent enhancements to 0.58 MTPA and ultimately to 0.599 MTPA. Similarly, iron ore production capacity has risen from 1.60 MTPA to 3.81 MTPA, and further to 4.45 MTPA. All proposed expansions duly comply with the parameters set by the Hon’ble Supreme Court.

• Mining manganese and iron ores from two mining

leases located in Sandur (Karnataka)

• Fully-mechanized iron ore mining contributing

to higher margins

• Semi-mechanized, labour-intensive manganese ore mining with relatively lower margins but generating large scale employment opportunities

• Mining operations with one of the best operating

metrics & track record in the Industry

• Mining operations conducted with utmost respect for environment and adherence to regulatory norms of authorities

Ferroalloys – New and Improved

Turnaround of Ferroalloys operations in FY21 through feasible power generation

Achieved a shift towards cleaner sources of energy such as Waste Heat & Green Energy against previously used coal-based energy

The combination of Coke Oven Plant and WHRB generates power as a by-product, thus leading to substantial savings by eliminating the need for thermal coal

Effective power generation cost was reduced significantly post commissioning of WHRB & further setup of hybrid renewable energy plant

Q4FY25 PERFOR M AN C E HIGHLIGHTS

Management Commentary

Mining

The mining segment continues to perform well. Manganese ore production has ramped up significantly, reaching almost to our annual Maximum Permissible Annual Production (MPAP) limits in FY25. While production has increased substantially, the ramp-up in sales is progressing relatively slowly. We are actively pursuing initiatives to expand our domestic market in line with our enhanced MPAP limits and look forward to making further progress on this front in the coming year.

Iron ore production for FY25 was rapidly ramped-up to our MPAP limits for the year. Additionally, we cleared some of the closing stock from previous periods in Q4, resulting in exceptionally high volumes during this quarter.

Realisations for manganese ore witnessed some moderation in Q4, while iron ore realisations remained largely unchanged during the period.

Mining Expansion

A significant development in this area has been the receipt of Consent for Operation - Expansion (CFO - Expand) for one of our mining leases in April, allowing us to enhance iron ore production from 3.81 MTPA to 4.36 MTPA. In addition to the annual capacity expansion at this mine, we also received CFO approval for second mining lease for handling incidental iron ore to the tune of 0.327 million tonnes by 31 August 2026. This approval enables us to sell already excavated ore amounting to 0.327 million tonnes, in addition to our annual production.

With these approvals, all of our interim mining expansions have concluded. Our MPAP limits now stand at 0.599 MTPA for manganese ore and 4.45 MTPA for iron ore. This represents a substantial increase in our operational scale in the mining segment over the past 2 years.

Coke and Energy

Coke volumes remained subdued in FY25. However, I am pleased to report some recent positive developments in this segment. Firstly, we have signed a conversion agreement with a customer effective 1 April 2025. This agreement secures approximately 46% of our capacity under contract, ensuring a steady production and subsequent power generation. It also negates any risk of pricing volatility for aforementioned volumes. With renewable energy in place, it will enable us to generate enough power to operate 2 of our 3 furnaces in the Ferroalloys division in FY26.

Furthermore, as the coking coal markets stabilize, we plan to increase our production in this business segment. As a result, we expect improved performance in this segment in the coming year.

Ferroalloys

The Ferroalloys segment benefited from improved realizations in Q4, although volumes remained a challenge. However, with recent developments in the Coke and Energy segment, we have increased Ferroalloys production from beginning of FY26. Operating 2 furnaces will give us an effective capacity of ~5,000 tonnes per month - a significant increase from our current run-rate.

“We are entering FY26 on a strong footing, with all mining expansions operational from the very start of the year and the added advantage of fully consolidating Arjas Steel.”

The outlook for the steel industry has improved moderately, with the recent imposition of a 12% safeguard duty on certain steel imports being a welcome move, though there is still room for further improvement. Our goal for the Ferroalloys segment in the coming year is to maximize the use of our 2 operational furnaces, which will also enable greater captive consumption of manganese ore and help absorb additional production volumes from the mining segment.

Arjas Steel

Arjas Steel has seen improved profitability in the recent quarter. With the pressure from higher-cost inventory easing and the benefits of cost-control measures taking effect, EBITDA per tonne for Arjas has improved in Q4 despite the overall market being subdued. As industry operating environment improves further, we expect Arjas to show results of our recent strategic initiatives and reflect the strengths of its business model. This also reaffirms our conviction in the market positioning of Arjas Steel. Operationally, there have also been notable developments at Arjas. Recently, we commissioned a Garret Coiler at the Tadipatri site, which has commenced trial production. This has expanded our product portfolio beyond bars, laying the foundation for a more diversified business mix. We have also maintained a steady supply of iron ore from SMIORE to Arjas, supporting effective procurement strategies.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the Company has experienced significant growth in scale of operations in FY25. With mining expansion projects completed and substantial capacities established across other business segments, we are fully prepared to capitalize on the opportunities in FY26. Taking stock of the current year’s performance, the Board has recommended a final dividend of ₹1.25 per equity share, subject to shareholder approval at the ensuing AGM.
