Hindustan
Zinc net sales increased 8.16% to Rs 6,122 crore in Q2FY22 compared to Q2FY21
led by higher zinc & lead LME prices & higher premiums as well as
higher silver prices partly offset by lower metal & silver volumes. Over
the year, zinc & lead LME prices were up 28% & 25% respectively.
Sequentially revenue decreased 6%, primarily due to lower metal & silver
volumes and lower silver prices partly offset by higher zinc & lead LME
prices & higher premiums. Zinc sales volume decreased 12% q-o-q and lead by
4% q-o-q in line with lower production.
Zinc
cost of production before royalty (COP) was Rs 83,208 per tonne for the
quarter, higher by 22% y-o-y and 5% sequentially. H1FY22 COP was Rs 80,991 per
tonne, up 13.6% y-o-y (12.1% in rupee terms). The COP has been affected by
input commodity price increase (coal, diesel, met coke etc.) and higher revenue
mine development partially offset by benefits from operational efficiencies and
better recoveries. Sequentially, maintenance shutdown & lower metal volumes
also weighed on the cost of production.
Operating
profit margin has jumped from 52.16% to 54.48%, leading to 12.97% rise in
operating profit to Rs 3,335 crore. Rise
was primarily due to higher zinc & lead LME prices, higher premiums as well
as higher silver prices. Employee cost decreased from 3.01% to 2.62%. Other expenses rose from 43.49% to
45.38%. Selling and administration
expenses rose from 12.20% to 12.97%.

Other
income fell 20.26% to Rs 311 crore.

to Rs 2,862 crore. Provision for tax was

26.01%.

prices and lower effective tax sequentially.

transition to underground mining operations. With effective systems &
planning, teams at Hindustan Zinc have strengthened the backbone of our
operations setting the stage right for us to deliver one million production
mark. We are also progressing well on our ESG journey and have committed to Net
zero emissions by 2050. Hindustan Zinc has also joined the Taskforce on
Nature-related Financial Disclosure (TNFD) to tackle nature-related risks
proactively. We are proud and look forward to participate in British High
Commission Conference of the Parties (COP26).”
Mr Sandeep Modi, Interim

headwinds from ongoing global energy crisis. We believe that with operational
challenges behind us, we have reset the system for a robust delivery in the
future. We remain committed to protect our margins, generate robust free cash
flow & invest in sustainability, all of which together will help us to
create & deliver long lasting value for our shareholders.”
Operational Performance
Ore: Total ore production for the quarter
was up 2.6% y-o-y to 3.99 million tonne, led by strong growth in Zawar and
Sindesar Khurd (SK) mines partially offset by lower production at Kayad and
Rajpura Dariba (RD) mines. Ore production at Rampura Agucha mine remained flat
y-o-y. On a sequential basis, ore production was up 10.3% primarily driven by
exceptional performance at SK and Kayad mine with strong performances from Rajpura
Dariba, Zawar and Rampura Agucha mines. For the six-months period, ore
production witnessed a growth of 8.1% y-o-y to 7.6 million tonne. Higher
production from Rampura Agucha, Zawar and Rajpura Dariba were partially offset
by lower ore production at Kayad mines.
Metal-In-Concentrate
(MIC): Total MIC production for the quarter at
248kt, up 4.4% y-o-y on account of higher ore treatment at Rampura Agucha,
Zawar and Rajpura Dariba mines supported by improvement in recovery, which has
been partly offset by lower grades. Sequentially, mined metal production grew
by 12.3% mainly due to higher ore treatment at Sindesar Khurd, Rampura Agucha
& Kayad mine and improvement in mining grades & recovery. Overall H1
FY22 MIC production was 470kt up 7% y-o-y in line with higher ore treatment at
Rampura Agucha, Zawar mines & Rajpura Dariba mine and increased recovery,
offset by a slight dip in overall grades.
Integrated metal
production was 209kt
for the quarter, down 12% as compared to both Q2 FY21 & Q1 FY22 on account
of extended shutdown at one of the roasters at Chanderiya Smelter for Repairs
& overhaul of Structural components. Integrated zinc production was 162kt,
down 10% as compared to Q2 FY21 and down by 14% as compared to Q1 FY22.
Integrated lead production for the quarter was down 18% y-o-y to 47kt on
account of annual shutdown at Dariba Lead Smelters. Integrated silver
production was 152 tonne, down 25% y-o-y in line with lead production &
depletion of WIP in Q2 FY21 & down 5% as compared to Q1 FY22. H1 FY22 metal
production was 445kt, up 2% as compared to H1 FY21 in line with Roaster
availability, while silver production was 2% lower y-o-y to 313 tonne.
