JSPL Standalone Performance

JSP Q1FY23 production of 1.99 mt was 6% lower Q-o-Q and was marginally lower on a Y-o-Y basis (-1% Y-o-Y). The company reported sales of 1.74 mt during the quarter, which were 16% lower Q-o-Q (+8% Y-o-Y) as both domestic and export volumes were impacted by challenging market conditions and imposition of export duty in May 2022. Exports accounted for 26% of sales in 1QFY23 (vs. 29% in 4QFY22).

JSP’s 1QFY23 Gross revenues of INR 14,541 crore declined by 7% Q-o-Q (+27% Y-o-Y) as lower volumes more than offset the benefit from higher realisations. Notwithstanding higher input costs, 1QFY23 Adjusted EBITDA of Rs 2,865 crore was 8% higher Q-o-Q (-35% Y-o-Y). Q1FY23 adjusted profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 2,072 crore (adjusted for exceptional) increased 44% Q-o-Q (-22% Y-o-Y) on higher operating profit and lower finance costs.

Pellet production of 1.92 mt declined 11 % Y-o-Y (-3% Q-o-Q) due to negligible external sales (30KT vs. 400KT in Q1FY21).
