Following the completion of the Expansion and Optimisation Projects of the Vadinar Refinery, we have concentrated on operational excellence to set new industry benchmarks.

We will continue to emphasize on domestic markets to help achieve India’s energy security. Our positive moves during FY 2012-13 helped us to perform better in an adverse operating environment. We have initiated concrete measures to facilitate enhanced refinery operations and dollarisation of the balance sheet leading to reduced cost of debt.

  • Boards Fall Behind in the Drive to Appoint Women Alex Spence: the Times February 6 2012
    Boards fall behind in the drive to appoint women Alex Spence: The Times February 6 2012 Britain's biggest companies will miss a deadline to have a quarter of their boardroom positions filled by women unless more is done to move talented female executives up the corporate ladder, recruiters have warned. As things stand, the target of having 25 per cent of FTSE 100 directorships held by women will be met two years late, in 2017, the search firm Norman Broadbent said. Although the female composition of FTSE 100 boards has risen from 13.6 per cent at the start of last year to almost 15 per cent, the supply of women executives and senior managers remained limited, it said. According to Neil Holmes, a consultant at Norman Broadbent: "Women are appearing on short-lists but the supply on the executive side is still lower than it should be and this requires companies to invest in long-term cultural changes." In a report last year, Lord Davies of Abersoch challenged corporate leaders to cast the net wider in the search for directors and to break their dominance of their boardrooms. Twenty-six per cent of the non-executive directors appointed to FTSE 100 boards last year were women, with 24 per cent in the FTSE 250 and 17 per cent in smaller listed companies. Women still lagged well behind their male counterparts in the top executive jobs at the biggest companies, accounting for 9 per cent of FTSE 100 executive positions last year, Norman Broadbent said. There was also a vast disparity between different industries, with women making up 17 per cent of boards in the health sector at the end of the year.

  • 1 Modelling Oil and Gas Stock Returns Using Multi Factor Asset Pricing
    Modelling oil and gas stock returns using multi factor asset pricing model including oil price exposure Abstract Oil and gas is one of the most important sectors in every economy and the valuation of oil and gas companies becomes quite challenging due to the volatility of crude oil price. The paper investigates the determinants of the UK oil and gas stock returns using multi factor asset pricing model and the existence of asymmetric effects in the Brent crude oil price. Our results show that market risk, oil price risk, size and book-to-market related factors are all relevant in the determination of asset returns of the oil and gas companies quoted on the London stock exchange. Oil price increases and decreases decomposed separately have more effect on the oil companies’ stock returns than the normal log changes of the price which shows the presence of asymmetric effect. However, the oil price shocks in general do not seem to strongly affect stock returns in oil and gas sector possibly due to horizontal and vertical integration of bigger companies in the sector. Keywords: asset pricing models, Brent crude oil, asymmetry in oil price, size effect, book to market ratio, oil and gas sector, oil price exposure, structural breaks. JEL Classification Codes: G12 1 1. Introduction One of the biggest challenges in the field of finance is how to effectively model the risk and return of financial securities. Researchers have formulated various asset pricing models that tend to explain the determinants of asset returns. Markowitz’s (1952) mean-variance analysis provides the foundations of portfolio optimisation.

  • Gujarat's Electricity Sector Transformation
    Tim Buckley, Director for Energy Finance Studies, Australasia 1 Kashish Shah, Research Analyst August 2019 Gujarat’s Electricity Sector Transformation A Role Model of India’s Electricity Transition Executive Summary GUJARAT, LOCATED ON THE WESTERN COAST OF INDIA, IS AN ECONOMIC POWERHOUSE that contributed roughly 8% of India’s total gross domestic product (GDP) between 2011/12 and 2018/19. It is one of the most industrially focussed states in India, with three quarters of Gujarat’s state GDP coming from the industrial sector. IEEFA also identifies Gujarat as one of the five leading Indian states for renewable energy in terms of both existing generation capacity as well as future potential. There was 2 gigawatt (GW) of solar power capacity, 6GW of wind power capacity and 0.5GW of biomass capacity operational as of March 2019. India’s Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) estimates Gujarat’s renewables potential to be 72.7GW, equally balanced between solar and wind energy potential. This includes the 5GW Dholera Solar Park, the largest proposed solar development in the world to-date. August 2019 saw NTPC announce plans for another 5GW of solar park at Kutch in Gujarat during its annual investor meet for FY2018/19. This announcement puts Gujarat ahead in the race for building renewables capacity between states such as Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Rajasthan with similar renewable energy potential. GUJARAT’S CURRENT ELECTRICITY MIX IS DOMINATED BY THERMAL POWER SOURCES. The 22.3GW of thermal capacity comprises 15.8GW of coal-fired and 6.6GW of gas-fired capacity.
