7253.89 Cr as compared to Rs. 5824.51 Cr in Q1 FY 12.
Ø
PAT stood at Rs.
145.93 Cr as compared to Rs. (628.75 Cr) in Q4FY12 and Rs. 430.44 Cr in
Q1FY12. This is mainly due to lower
profit in Coal Companies owing to lower price realization and higher cost of production, higher interest and
depreciation cost due to commissioning of Mundra and Maithon units and reversal
of revenues due to change in effective date of MYT regulations in Mumbai.
Ø

period last year.
Ø
PBIT from Power Business was at Rs.
578.24 Cr as against Rs. 627.0 Cr in the previous quarter last year, a
reduction Rs. 155 Cr mainly due to shifting of MYT regime to 2012-13 onwards in
Mumbai.
Ø
PBIT from Coal Business stood at Rs. 257.61 Cr as compared
to Rs. 750.07 Cr reported in the Q1 FY
12. Profits were lower in Coal Companies due to lower price realization and

Commenting on the Company’s
performance, Mr. Anil Sardana, MD,said,
“During first quarter of FY13, the
Company reported revenue growth of about 20% and profit growth of about 10% which is highly satisfying. All our projects and subsidiaries by and
large have performed well. Tata Power‟s generation capacity crossed 6000 MW with
commissioning of 800 MW unit 2 of the Mundra UMPP, reinforcing our position as the largest integrated power
company in India. The Company crossed 11000 MWh of generation units at Mithapur
Solar plant which is a significant milestone that demonstrates efficiency and
state of art technology used at the plant. Our Coal Companies posted lower realization
due to global economic slowdown and falling coal prices.
By signing the coal supply agreement
with PT Antang Gunung Meratus, we have taken proactive steps to ensure imported
coal supply for our upcoming power projects to be developed for next 5 years.”

KEY
SUBSIDIARIES
Coastal Gujarat Power Limited (CGPL):
CGPL, an SPV formed for setting up and operating the 4000 MW Mundra UMPP announced synchronization of its
800 MW sized Unit 2 on 19th
July and commercial operations on 30thJuly 2012. Unit 1 is in operation. Work
on Units 3, 4 and 5 of the project is on track And progressing well. Blending
of 70% has been achieved successfully
through eco-coal that has low sulphur and ash content. CGPL posted Revenues of
Rs. 285.07 Cr in Q1FY13. PAT stood at Rs. (164.78) Cr and is mainly due to first unit being
operational. The unexpected rise in coal price has not only affected our Mundra
project but all imported coal based projects. Senior leaders from the industry
met Hon‟ble
PM and requested PMO to resolve this issue. Further, Tata Power had contracted
coal from Indonesia on terms, which were mirror of bid tariff for coal for
CGPL. However, since Indonesian Government has changed the export norms for
coal from their country, Tata Power can‟t get imported coal based on
contracted terms. CGPL has also filed a petition with CERC for revision of
tariff.
