Summary of BOROSIL RENEWABLES's latest earnings call, featuring management's outlook on business performance, financial results, and analyst Q&A sessions that highlight key strategic initiatives and market challenges.
Last updated: Feb 25
The management of Borosil Renewables expressed a cautiously optimistic outlook, driven by regulatory developments and industry growth. Key points include:
Antidumping Duties: Final DGTR recommendations for 5-year antidumping (on China/Vietnam) and countervailing duties (Vietnam) are expected to restore fair competition. Landed prices post-duty (INR 140/mm/m² or ~INR 56,000/ton) should boost domestic margins, with full impact visible from Q4 FY25.
Industry Growth: Solar installations in India are projected to rise to 25 GW in 2024 (vs. 15 GW in 2023), with module manufacturing capacity expanding to 150 GW in 2"“3 years. Government initiatives like ALMM (domestic modules) and ALCM (cells from June 2026) strengthen local value chains.
Capacity Expansion: Domestic solar glass capacity is 15 GW, with another 15 GW to be added by 2025. Borosil plans a 500 TPD (3.25 GW) expansion (commissioning by Sept 2026), part of India's total planned 41.25 GW (6,300 TPD) capacity.
Financial Recovery: Q3 FY25 saw subdued EBITDA (INR 20.89 Cr vs. INR 52.88 Cr QoQ) due to price pressures and one-time expenses. Post-duty ASP improvements (targeting ~30% EBITDA margins) are expected to drive profitability from Q4.
German Subsidiary: Operations paused due to political uncertainty; costs reduced via government-supported short-time work (EBITDA loss halved to ~INR 4 Cr/month). Awaiting EU policies (25% local renewable components mandate) post-elections.
Fundraising: Raised INR 517 Cr via preferential issue (INR 100 Cr from promoters) for capex.
Challenges include potential dumping via Malaysia and pending Finance Ministry approval for final duties. Management remains confident in India's solar growth and its capacity to leverage import substitution.
Last updated: Feb 25
Question 1:
"What is the capex outlook for the 500 tons/day expansion, and how will it be funded?"
Answer: The initial capex estimate for the 500 tons/day expansion is INR 675 crores. Funds will come from the recent preferential issue proceeds (INR 517 crores), internal accruals, and bank loans.
Question 2:
"Why was a preferential issue chosen over a rights issue for fundraising?"
Answer: The preferential issue was pursued after investor interest, allowing consolidation of fundraising needs (INR 700 crores) into a single process. Stock exchanges required withdrawal of the concurrent rights issue, which was discontinued.
Question 3:
"Could Chinese manufacturers bypass antidumping duties via Malaysia?"
Answer: While possible, Malaysian exports are expected to be limited due to their focus on profitability. Indian demand is high, and domestic manufacturers can cater to customers avoiding imports.
Question 4:
"What is the timeline for final antidumping duty approval by the Finance Ministry?"
Answer: Approval is expected by early May 2025, following the DGTR's final recommendation. Historically, the Finance Ministry adheres to DGTR's findings.
Question 5:
"How will margins improve post-antidumping duty (ADD) implementation?"
Answer: Realizations are expected to rise to ~INR 56,000/ton (from ~INR 42,000/ton), boosting EBITDA margins to ~30% as costs remain stable.
Question 6:
"What is the current solar glass capacity and future expansion outlook?"
Answer: Current domestic capacity is 15 GW, rising to 41 GW by 2026. Expansion is driven by strong demand and ADD protection, ensuring import substitution.
Question 7:
"Are there plans for further fundraising?"
Answer: No immediate plans. The recent INR 517 crore preferential issue suffices for current capex; future needs may involve debt or internal accruals.
Question 8:
"What caused losses in the German subsidiary, and what steps are taken to mitigate them?"
Answer: Losses stem from low demand due to EU policy delays. The furnace was idled, reducing monthly EBITDA losses from INR 8 crore to ~INR 4 crore via government wage subsidies and cost cuts.
Question 9:
"How will the captive solar power project reduce costs?"
Answer: A 16.5 MW hybrid project under group captive model will save ~INR 17 crores annually via lower tariffs, operational by late 2025.
Question 10:
"Is forward integration into solar module manufacturing planned?"
Answer: No current plans. Focus remains on expanding solar glass production to meet domestic demand.
