Performance Update
Q2 & H1 FY’20 Revenue impacted on account of –
Consciously slowed down supplies to the customer unwilling to give secured payment terms
Considering the liquidity situation in the market, Limited our credit risk exposure across our
customers ; at this stage we find it more prudent to not chase growth in revenue at the cost of
financial discipline.
Lack of short term orders in market
Structural changes undergoing implementation in Polymer Segment
Management ideology of not chasing growth at the cost of financial discipline will be
maintained and adhered.

• In between 2005 – 15 Skipper supported multiple Indian non integrated T&D EPC Contractors
(holding major market share) with low cost reliable Transmission Tower supplies (Towers are almost
50% of the value of any project).
• Currently replicating the same format in International markets with major International EPC
contractors, helping them leverage their relations with the Utilities better
• Increase in approvals such as CWB (North America), Lapem (Central America & Mexico), CE (Europe),
DEWA (Middle east), Achilles (Nordic countries) and Sirim (South East Asia) which gives it better

WHAT MAKES US MORE COMPETITIVE
Higher Price : Chinese manufacturers are almost 10-15% higher priced than Indian
manufacturers, owing to un favorable currency and much higher labor costs.
Limited Capacities to offer : Chinese manufacturers have cut capacities owing to
pollution issues and the remaining capacity is tied up in their Belt – Road project so are
quoting very long lead times.
Reliability: More and more global utilities are interested to source from Indian
manufacturers compared to Chinese due to regular quality issues over the years.

T&D INDUSTRY OVERVIEW IN INDIA
• Historical skew between generation and T&D asset creation; shortage of power
evacuation capacity
• Skew correction across the last decade: substantial increase in T&D capacity
amounting to 345 GW as on September 2019 which is estimated to grow at a
CAGR of 6.5% between 2018 and 2023.
• Part of an overarching government agenda: one nation, one grid
• National power grid backbone enabling regions of power surplus to feed regions
of power deficit
• Part of a long-term structural correction to maximise national resource use and
create one consolidated market
• This structural correction to widen and deepen: large room for India’s
transmission network to grow
• India Transmission capex estimated at INR 2.6 trillion (+49%) in the 13th Plan.

11th Plan:
• 175 GW renewable energy capacity addition targeted by 2022 – an unprecedented opportunity 2,57,481 CKM
• Rs 50,000 cr Plus Green Corridor Projects (Lines being built in Western region catering to
Renewable power sources)
• Dedicated schemes of Rs 1.09 lakh cr to provide 24x7 power (rural and urban)
• Unprecedented Rs 1 lakh cr allocated by Central government for national transmission grid
12th Plan:
• Growing transmission focus with substantial line capacity addition from 11th Plan to 13th Plan 3,64,921 CKM
• 100,000+ CKM transmission lines at 220 kV+ projected for 13th Plan
• R-APDRP launched by Ministry of Power; upgradation of transmission and distribution network

REASONS FOR LONG-TERM SECTORAL OPTIMISM
• India the fastest growing major global economy; expected to
quadruple and emerge as a $ 10 trn economy in the next 15 years
• India’s power appetite projected to increase [4]x in line with its
growing economy in the next decade
• India extensively under-penetrated: per capita power consumption
considerably lower than peer countries which is estimated to reach
3000 units by 2040 compared to 1150 units in 2018.
• Three forecasted drivers of India’s power consumption: organic
increase in demand in a growing economy; under-penetration
likely to correct (supply likely to increase demand)/ substantial
growth of renewable energy
