In addition, adverse weather conditions Message and red rot disease impacted the sugarcane yields, resulting in lower cane. This is a one-off case where the sugar season had a short run and we are hopeful to catch up in the ensuing season. We are aggressively undertaking cane development activities in our command area, which in the future would lead to improved recovery and enhanced cane availability for our units. Commenting on the performance for The Board of Directors has approved the 5th consecutive buy-back of equity shares of the Company for an aggregate amount not exceeding Rs. 215.25 crores under the ‘Open Market Through Stock Q1FY22, Mr. Vivek Saraogi, Managing Exchanges’ route in line with the policy for distribution of profits to the shareholders. In the past Director, Balrampur Chini Mills promoters had always participated in the buy back. But under the proposed buy back , promoters for Limited, said: the first time would not be participating .Post successful completion of this buy-back, promoter's stake in the company would rise . The Board has also accorded its approval to proposals for expansion of distillery unit at Balrampur from 160 KLPD to 330 KLPD and distillery unit at Gularia from 160 KLPD to 200 KLPD. With the distillery unit at Maizapur already under implementation, our total capacity will reach to 1050 KLPD by November, 2022 resulting in almost 35 crores of distillation capacity on an annual basis. Consequently, we would be doubling our distillation capacity via cane juice and B-heavy diversion route, thereby diverting surplus sugar. In addition, the Board has also approved modernization of sugar plants at some locations along with setting up of refinery at the sugar plants. This will enable us to sweat our assets better and crush a higher quantum of cane in a reduced time frame. This will also ensure higher availability of feed stock (B-heavy molasses and sugar cane juice) for our increasing ethanol capacity and thus, help us achieve economies of scale. As indicated earlier, we are further strengthening the Ethanol business of the Company, enthused by the pro-active and forward looking steps initiated by the GOI. Assured off-take, along with a clear pricing mechanism has been a game changer. This will also enable us to produce only that much sugar which we can sell in the domestic market and the excess will get converted into Ethanol. This, in turn, will help us as well as the sector to become self-sustainable.” 5 GloTbhale S uGgalro Pbroadul cStiocn eOnutaloorkio ( metric million tonnes) 2021-22 2020-21 31.5 38.5 73.6 65.35 Total Total 172.5 31.0 169.0 30.9 9.9 10.75 10.5 16.0 7.8 15.7 CS Brazil India Thailand EU China Rest of the World CS Brazil India Thailand EU China Rest of the World Brazil has been passing through one of its worst droughts in 90 years, which is expected to result in significant lower production 7 GloTbhale S uGgalro Bbalaanlc eS Scheeent ario ( metric million tonnes) 2021-22 (E) 2020-21 (E) 169.0 173.8 172.5 175.0 92.8 90.3 97.6 92.8 Opening Production Consumption Closing Opening Production Consumption Closing Rising freight rates, historic drought in Brazil, recent frost, weakness of the USD are likely to limit global trade flows and strengthen sugar prices .
