Further, the Company is going through a set of unprecedented circumstances and recorded net sales of 2,101.89 Crores during the financial year 2019-20 as compared to 6,436.32 Crores in the previous financial year. The Net Profit during the financial year 2019-20 was at 53.37 Crores as compared to a net profit of 3,050.43 Crores in financial year 2018-19. Owing to the above factors, the financial performance of the Company in the financial year ended March 31, 2020 did not meet expectations.
Further for the financial year ended 31st March, 2020, the Company had net loss as computed in accordance with provisions of Section 198 of the Companies Act, 2013.
Members may further note that in accordance with Section 197 of the Companies Act, 2013, if in any financial year, a Company has no profits or its profits as per Section 198 of Companies Act, 2013 are inadequate, the Company shall not pay to its directors, by way of remuneration any sum exclusive of sitting fees except in accordance with the provisions of Schedule V.
There are two components of remuneration of Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala, Chairman, and Managing Director & CEO of the Company:
- Salary & Perquisites
- Commission: Not more than 2.5% of the net profits of the Company as computed in the manner laid down in Section 198 of the Companies Act, 2013.
On the basis of Salary & Perquisites components of remuneration of Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala, a sum of ` 2.25 Crores was paid (excluding Provident Fund, Superannuation to the extent exempted and Gratuity) for the financial year 2019-20. Members may note that no commission was paid or accrued for financial year 2019-20 to Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala.
As a result of the above, the remuneration paid to Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala for the financial year 2019- 20 exceeded the limits specified under Section 197 & 198 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) read with Section II of Part II of Schedule V thereto.
Members may note that in accordance with the provisions of Section 197(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 & rules thereto, the excess remuneration paid shall be regularized by Shareholders through Special Resolution.
Further the Company is not in default in payment of dues to any bank or public financial institution or to any other secured creditor, and accordingly their prior approval is not required, for approval of the proposed special resolutions.
Thus pursuant to Section 197(10) of the Act, the members of the Company can waive the recovery of ` 87.57 Lakhs, being part of Minimum Remuneration paid during the financial year 2019-20, which exceeded the limits specified under Section 197 read with Schedule V of the Act to the extent as aforesaid, due to inadequacy of profits in the said Financial Year.
Members may also note in accordance with Section V of Part II of Schedule V a managerial person shall draw remuneration from one or both companies provided that the total remuneration drawn from the companies does not exceed the higher maximum limit admissible from any one of the companies of which he is a managerial person.
Since Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala, Chairman, Managing Director and CEO of the Company is also a Chairman and Managing Director of Malana Power Company Ltd, the remuneration drawn by Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala from both the Companies does not exceed, if the higher maximum limit admissible of Malana Power Company Ltd., is taken into account.
Members may also note that in accordance with the Section II of Part II of the Schedule V, where in any financial year during the currency of tenure of managerial person the Company has no profit or its profits are inadequate the remuneration can be paid for the period not exceeding three years within the limits specified in Para 1(A), subject to the approval of shareholders and requisite disclosures as prescribed under Section II of Part II of Schedule V.

Members may also note that based on the financial position of the Company as on 31st March, 2020 and the prevailing circumstances affecting the profitability of the Company, the Company may not have adequate profits to pay minimum remuneration to Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala, Chairman, Managing Director and CEO as approved by the Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on the 20th August, 2019.
Further the Board of Directors of the Company believes that the remuneration as previously approved by the members of the Company is justified in terms of their key role within the Company. Further there is no increase in remuneration of Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala as envisaged in terms of the resolutions set out at Item No 5 & 6 of this notice and the same is in line with the remuneration already approved by the member at the 47th AGM.
Thus Board of Directors upon recommendation of Nomination and Remuneration Committee at its meeting held on 10th August, 2020 approved the remuneration of Shri Ravi Jhunjhunwala, subject to the approval of shareholders, as per following details:

iii Other information:
1. Reasons for loss or inadequate profits:
Due to rapid closure of inefficient steel and graphite electrodes capacities in China and replacement of steel capacities by EAF units in year 2017 which will continue in year 2018 also, the Company had seen unprecedented tightness in supply of Graphite electrodes which pushed the prices upwards like anything. Steel majors across the world stocked up inventories more than required to sustain operations and optimise their cost structures. This surge helped the company enjoy exceptional profits in FY 2017-18 and 2018-19.
A year later, the landscape changed, and the steel sector headed into the red. Electrodes could not retain the heat in 2019 and a slack in demand eased the prices sequentially. But the inventory overhang did not dissipate entirely; this dimmed our performance. Our sales volumes dropped, and so did realisations. A decline in revenues hung over our profits. Our profitability fell faster in the face of high-cost inventory of needle coke.
Further, the lead-lag effect of inventory is typical to our industry owing to long production process of electrodes which entails between 6/7 weeks for some of our easiest products(Non UHP grade ) to as long as over 24 weeks (UHP grade). It becomes even higher as for two thirds of our total production of electrodes (UHP grade), we import our raw material Needle , which easily adds another about 8 weeks between shipment and receipt. Therefore, at any given time we carry a fairly large amount of raw materials, WIP at different stages of production and finished products.
The resulting gains of this lead-lag effect was enjoyed at the time when prices were going up and we were sitting with low cost inventory a couple of years ago. And now the situation has reversed due to which we had to take NRV impact of 459 Crores in FY'20 which has drastically reduced the EBITDA margins for FY'20. Therefore during the year under review, as a result of significant fall in the prices of Graphite Electrodes (which resulted in a sharp compression in the spreads between GE prices and its raw material needle coke prices), coupled with a significant inventory valuation hit of 459 Crores (for the FY'20) and weak demand dynamics, EBITDA stood at 138 Crores as compared to 4,767 Crores in FY'19 & reported a net profit of 53 Crores in FY'20 as against 3,050 Crores in FY'19.

2. Steps taken or proposed to be taken for improvement:
The Company continued to strengthen relations with the existing customers. It has also worked on establishing its credentials among new buyers to widen its customer base. This should augur well for maintaining sales volumes in the prevailing ecosystem.
Firstly, continuous efforts have been made towards qualitative improvement and cost optimization cross all operational and commercial areas which is expected to result in improvement in performance.
HEG stresses on people-to-people interactions to ensure the best working chemistry between the management and the workers. This has increased the operational productivity and engagement leading to a remarkable rise in effective man-hour utilisation and net scrap improvement. Also the Company has reviewed and realigned roles/responsibilities of its personnel to achieve cost efficiency.
Second, our liquidity war chest built prudently over the last two great years, powers us to tide over today's slump, even as we continue operating our plant at about 50% capacity. Additionally the Company is targeting to have free cash flows in FY'21 by reducing its inventory and receivables to further strengthen its position.
The Company's healthy cash position has been prudently deployed in liquidating debt and is parked in risk-free financial instruments. While the former has reduced interest costs significantly, the latter is providing buffer cash which can be deployed in business operations.
3. Expected increase in productivity and profits in measurable terms:
The slowdown in electrode demand caused a fall in needle coke prices bringing them to more realistic levels. Therefore the company's EBITDA margin will recover due to softer raw material prices and this would effectively support the gross margins.
Aligned to the 'slowbalisation' prevailing across the globe, our peers continue to operate at similar or lower capacity utilisation. The consequent reduction in supply should help reduce the inventory pile-up with global steel majors and rekindle demand and stabilize realisation.
Also, the pandemic has brought the spotlight on the benefits of EAF steelmaking because of its faster stoppage and inexpensive relighting as opposed to the blast furnace, which continued work even during the lockdown. This could veer new investments in steelmaking infrastructure towards EAF.
Further, the global supply of Graphite Electrodes will remain favourable as the GE capacity is likely to decline due to capacity closures in Europe. The capacity closures have been a function of unviable plant sizes, operations in high-labour cost geographies, unfavourable location of the plants within city premises and the sharp fall in GE prices, which render the plants uncompetitive.
HEG, being the largest single-location unit, provides significant economies of scale which helps optimise its cost structure which gives the company an edge over its competitors. Also the diversification in terms of markets and customers across geographies further makes the prospects brighter.
Further, the Company has negotiated a deal for lowcost power, which should reduce its operating costs. The Company has adopted the new tax regime which has optimised its tax outgo considerably. These factors have and will continue to have a positive impact on the Company's profitability.
Further, the Company has implemented stringent cost control measures across the organization to conserve cash.
