    2. 2 CONTENTS This Presentation will Cover:- Introduction of AMAI Global vis-ŕ-vis Indian Alkali Industry Size and Turnover of Indian Alkali Industry Overview of Indian Caustic Soda Industry Strengths & Challenges of Indian Caustic Soda Industry Overview of Indian Soda Ash Industry Strengths & Challenges of Indian Soda Ash Industry Introduction and Association of Sir Shriram and Darbari Seth with Alkali Industry Introduction of Judges on the Panel Evaluation Criteria & Declaration of Awards

    3. 3 INRODUCTION OF AMAI

    4. 4 AMAI-ORGANIZATION Alkali Manufacturers’ Association of India was established in 1960. An Apex Body representing over 43 Caustic Soda and Soda Ash Plants through 35 Companies. Affiliated locally with CII, FICCI and ICC and globally with World Chlorine Council, The Chlorine Institute, USA and Euro Chlor representing European Chlorine Industry.

    5. 5 AMAI MISSION STATEMENT MISSION “Represent the Indian Chlor-Alkali industry nationally and globally and facilitate the industry’s commitment to technological and economic growth, and continuous improvement in protecting human health and environment, guided by sound science, technology and risk management principles.

Publishing and widely distributing Pamphlet on benefits of “Chlorination of Drinking Water ”

    7. 7 Global vis-a-vis Indian Alkali Industry

    9. 9 Alkali Industry From Natural Minerals to Essential Basic Chemicals

    10. 10

    11. 11 CAUSTIC SODA – Essential Input Chemical for vital Industries Overview of Indian Caustic Soda Industry

    12. 12 CHLORINE-Serving wide spectrum of Industries

    13. 13 CAUSTIC SODA PRODUCTION SITES SPREAD ACROSS THE COUNTRY

    14. 14 GROWTH PATTERN

    15. 15 Overview of Indian Caustic Soda Industry SUDDEN SURGE IN IMPORTS OF CAUSTIC SODA LYE (MT)

    16. 16 Strengths & Challenges of Indian Caustic Soda Industry

    17. 17 Strengths & Challenges of Indian Caustic Soda Industry (contd./-) A Mature and Developed Industry ; over 93% Capacity based on latest Energy Efficient, Environment Friendly Membrane Cell technology.Target-100% on Membrane Cell by the year 2012;Next only to Japan. More than adequate Capacity to meet domestic demand of both Caustic Soda & Chlorine. Caustic an Essential Chemical that must be produced locally, - To cater to basic Industries like Alumina, Textile, Paper & Detergents - To secure Chlorine Production which otherwise can not be imported but required for PVC, Pulp & Paper, Agrochemicals, Pesticides/Insecticides, wide variety of Chemicals produced by SMEs. Chlorine usage in India for PVC is limited by lack of production/availability of merchant Ethylene. Govt.’s policy to encourage merchant Crackers/Petrochemical Complexes, can help boost/double Chlorine Consumption

    18. 18 Strengths & Challenges of Indian Caustic Soda Industry Industry rendered uncompetitive recently due to sudden surge in imports and Interim Safeguard duty, imposed by Government from 04.12.09 to 03.03.10 (for 3 months) not being extended; affecting Industry badly. To secure uninterrupted power & become competitive, most plants (80%) made heavy investment to install Captive Power. Effort to become competitive & heavy investment in Captive Power Capacity rendered futile due to high taxation (electricity duty & cess) on Captive Power, as high as 40 paisa per KWH. Grid Power in India is one of the highest, ranging from Rs 3.85 to Rs 6.0 as compared to power cost in Middle East Rs 0.8,US-Rs.2.25,Europe-Rs. 1.98. Need by Centre Government to have a Policy Guideline on level of cess & electricity on Captive Power generation & also VAT for such Duties and Taxes.

    20. 20 SODA ASH- Essential Input for Several Basic Industries

    21. 21 Soda Ash Production Sites

    22. 22 GROWTH PATTERN

    23. 23 Overview of Indian Soda Ash Industry

    24. 24 Overview of Indian Soda Ash Industry Exports during last five years

    25. 25 Strengths & Challenges of Indian Soda Ash Industry

    26. 26 Strengths & Challenges of Indian Soda Ash Industry (contd./-) Indian Soda ash Industry includes World Leaders like Tata Chemicals:- World’s 2nd largest producer with 55 lakh MTPA Capacity spread across India, USA, Kenya & U.K. Industry has more than adequate Capacity to meet entire domestic demand & has been consistently exporting. Outlook for Industry remains strong with End User industries continuing to grow (Glass 10-12%, Detergents @ 5%, Picture tubes @10%,bulbs & tubes@7%); These four sectors consuming almost 74% of demand.

    27. 27 Strengths & Challenges of Indian Soda Ash Industry Recently, Industry badly hit by sudden surge in imports at dumping prices from China, EU, Turkey, Pakistan etc. Govt. support through safeguard/ADD imposition urgently needed. Long term assurance for coal & 98% Chemical grade limestone essential. Hence, Govt. support/policy of allocation of coal blocks & long term lease for limestone essential.
