EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
PREAMBLE
Agriculture plays a vital role in Indian economy. Large population in the country depends
upon agriculture for its survival. Approximately 620 million rural Indians depend on
agriculture. Agriculture sector represents 17% of India’s GDP. Agriculture productivity is
dependent on various factors like soil properties, climate conditions, irrigation facilities, seed
qualities, technique of farming, prevention from pests etc, but more importantly usage of
primary, secondary and optimum nutrient. The loss of soil fertility in many developing
countries posses an immediate threat to food production. Chemical fertilizers have played
an important role in making the country self reliant in food production. It is essential to
encourage the use of nitrogenous phosphatic and pottasic fertilizer so as to achieve the
desirable consumption ratio according to agro climatic and crop requirements to maintain
the soil health and to sustain the crop productivity.
PIONEER INDUSTRY OF THE COUNTRY
About 60 percent of the India’s workforce is dependent on agriculture for their livelihood.
Substantial evidence has demonstrated that chemical fertilizers have played a vital role in
success of India’s Green Revolution and consequent self reliance in food grain production.
Fertililizers consumption has increased from less than 1 kg per hectare in 1951-1952 to
143.13 kgs in 2011-12.
The fertilizer industry presents one of the most energy intensive sectors within the Indian
economy and is therefore of particular interest in the context of both local and global
environmental discussions. Increase in productivity through the adoption of more efficient
and cleaner technologies in the manufacturing sector will be most effective in merging
economic, environmental, and social development objectives. A historical examination of
productivity growth in India’s industries embedded into a broader analysis of structural
composition and policy changes will help identify potential future development strategies
that lead towards a more sustainable development path.

INTRODUCTION
Cee Vee Agrience Pvt. Ltd. (CVA) was incorporated for setting up a fertilizer plant,
manufacturing the economical and widely used Single Super Phosphate (SSP) unit in
Orissa. Due to omnipotent qualities, it can be used in various types of agricultural produce
ranging from coconut to flower, wheat to fruits and vegetables. SSP is most viable when
produced and distributed, focused on localized market. Orissa government is encouraging
multi cropping and diversification into cash crops. Therefore, we feel that our product will
find ready and receptive market due to this encouraging scenario. However, the company
has held discussions with Paradeep Phosphates Limited wherein they have shown
inclination to enter into a long term marketing arrangement. Thus we do not foresee any
possible difficulty in marketing of the product.
PROMOTERS
The Promoter, C.V. Ramu, hails from Cuttack, Orissa. He has completed his education from
Cuttack and Delhi. He has done his MBA from the prestigious IMT, Ghaziabad. Mr. Ramu

large companies like Escorts, TATA Group & Reliance. The promoter comes from a well-to-
do and meritorious family in Orissa.
THE PROJECT
CVA proposes to set up a 100 TPD plant manufacturing the economical and widely used
Single Super Phosphate fertilizer. It can be used in various types of agricultural produce
ranging from coconuts to flowers, wheat to fruits and vegetables, floriculture to cotton
cultivation etc. The production process is very simple and economical and the fertilizer
yields good results in all kinds of soil conditions. In markets like Orissa, where the
Government is encouraging multi-cropping and diversification into cash crops, it turns out to
be a viable product. Currently, the Orissa market is serviced by manufacturers from
neighbouring states resulting in inconsistent supplies as they give priority to their home
consumers and only supply the residual quantity to Orissa. Thus a plant in Orissa is in great
demand. The installed capacity of the plant is proposed to be 30,000 TPA.

INDUSTRY SCENARIO OF SSP
SECTOR BACKGROUND Single super phosphate (SSP) is a high-in-demand fertilizer mostly used at the time of
preparation of land for farming. It is a straight phosphatic multi-nutrient fertilizer which
contains 16% water soluble P2O5, 12% sulphur, 21% calcium and some other essential
micro nutrients in small proportions. The first SSP plant is said to have been established by
EID Parry in the year 1906. Manufacturing of SSP is based on perhaps the simplest
chemical reaction amongst chemical fertilizer industry. The main raw materials required are
Rock phosphate and sulphuric acid. SSP, a poor farmer's fertilizer (price-wise compared to
DAP- Diammonium phosphate), is an option to optimise the use of phosphatic fertilizers and
helps treat sulphur deficiency in soils (40% Indian soil is sulphur deficient). Several crops
such as oilseeds, pulses, sugarcane, tea etc require more sulphur and phosphate, a
phenomenon that is fulfilled with the use of SSP. SSP is classified into two categories,
namely Single Super Phosphate (SSP) and Granulated Single Super Phosphate (GSSP).
HISTORY OF REGULATION:
After decontrol of fertilizers in India in August 1992, the Government of India has been
implementing a Concession Scheme for decontrolled Phosphatic and Potassic (P&K)
fertilizers. SSP is one the decontrolled fertilizers covered under the Scheme. The
Department of Fertilizers (DOF), after taking over the Concession Scheme from the
Department of Agriculture and Cooperation in 2000, modified the guidelines for the Scheme
so as to promote use of specified grades of rock phosphate purchased from notified
sources for manufacture of SSP, with a view to ensure availability of quality SSP to farmers
and to minimize possibility of sale of non-standard SSP to farmers. Till April 2010, the
government, kept prices artificially low to maintain affordability and controlled retail prices of
all fertilizers. As a result, Indian farmers were insulated from international price hikes.
The Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers approved the Nutrient Based Subsidy (NBS) in
March 2010 in an effort to decontrol prices. Since the announcement, fertilizer sales
volumes have risen significantly. For example, in FY11, sales of complex fertilizers other
than DAP rose by ~40% despite a significant increase in prices. Under the new regime,
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
9
there is a fixed subsidy for nutrients and unlike in the past, when the government set the
MRP, the current regime lets manufacturers determine their own selling prices. However,
we cannot totally rule out the possibility of government intervention returning in the case of
large fluctuations in price in future. On 5th May 2011, the Government announced the
revised nutrient subsidy rates applicable for FY12. Nutrient subsidies increased
substantially from the rates in FY11. On an annual basis, subsidy on Phosphorous has
increased the most due to the rapid rise in DAP and Phosphoric Acid prices. This is
because raw material prices have increased sharply in the international market, leading to
high finished goods prices. However for FY13, the ministry reduced subsidy on all nutrients
with the largest change in Phosphorous. While this move was to reduce subsidy outgo in
line in a drop in global raw material prices, MRP could rise a little. At the same time, the
government didn’t announce any scheme in Urea. Urea remains the cheapest fertilizer and
farmers could continue to overuse urea impacting soil quality.
Subsidies to DAP and MOP fertilisers were slashed by 27.4% and 10% respectively. But
urea, the most used crop nutrient that accounts for the bulk of the government's spending
(~Rs. 21,500 cr in FY11) on fertilisers, was left unchanged. The subsidy for DAP will stand
at Rs. 14.4/kg in FY13 compared to Rs. 19.8 in FY12. For MoP, the same has been fixed at
Rs. 14.4/kg against Rs. 16.1 in FY12.
The NBS for the FY 2013-14 has been announced vide Office Memorandum dated 3rd
May, 2013 and for MRP dated 26th
June, 2013 by the Ministry of Chemical &
Fertilizers. For this fiscal year, the subsidy shall be Rs. 3173/MT and MRP Rs. 7004/
MT.
INDIAN FERTILIZER MARKET:
Fertilizer consumption increased from 20.3 mn tonnes in FY06 to ~29.2 mn tonnes in FY11
led by a rise in phosphorous consumption, which rose from ~5.2 mn tonnes in FY06 to ~9.4
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
10
mn tonnes in FY11. The consumption of fertilisers increased by 7% during FY2012 but the
consumption growth was lower as compared with that in FY2011 (when consumption had
grown by 14%). Fertilizer demand is expected to rise at a CAGR of ~8% to ~40-45 mn
tonnes in FY16. Phosphorous is expected to account for a bulk of that increase at a CAGR
of ~15% to ~16-18 mn tonnes in FY16 following increased availability of complex fertilizers
after the Nutrient Based Scheme (NBS) came into effect. Producers are now given a
subsidy on the volume of nutrient sold as opposed to that on the volume of product sold
earlier. This gives the producers incentive to sell other fertilizers besides urea and DAP.
Fertilizer consumption per tonne of grain production has increased over the years as shown
in the table below but the increase is largely due to an increase in usage of urea. Soil
fertility in India has deteriorated due to the excessive use of urea and hence, a greater
usage of Phosphorous (P) and Potassium (K) fertilizers is required to balance fertilizations
and optimise soil productivity.
India accounts for approximately 45% of the phosphoric acid global trade, ~16% of the
global rock phosphate trade, ~9% of ammonia trade and ~11% of MOP (Muriate of Potash)
trade. With such a strong global presence, we believe India can enjoy bargaining power
with raw material suppliers; however, this would depend on input costs and global demand-
supply. India is dependent on imported feedstock (rock phosphate, phosphoric acid), as
domestic capacities have not matched the growth in demand. Any expansion/benefit can be
contingent on the ability of the company to source raw material. SSP imports vary
significantly as per the demand and supply in the country. For most of FY12, imports were
far below their levels in 2009 however, imports increased significantly toward the end of
2011. Import prices are at all time highs because raw material prices are soaring. Import
prices in December were ~Rs. 29,000/tonne.
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
11
Domestic production has been stagnant for the past 4 years around 2.8 million MT/year.
Growth in production has slowed down significantly but is expected to pick up going
forward. Several leading fertilizer companies have indicated their interest in the SSP field
and have already announced plans to set up plants. The total domestic capacity is expected
to increase significantly over the next couple years, which could reduce the country’s
dependence on imports. However, such an increase in capacity could also adversely affect
raw material prices (which have been on the uptrend) as there are no significant phosphate
rock capacities expected anytime soon across the globe. India imports majority of its raw
material for SSP production and being a large player in the global market, could pressurize
suppliers to maintain prices.
TURNAROUND IN THE FORTUNES OF FERTILIZER INDUSTRY:
The fertiliser industry was a laggard sector for years due to overhang of policy control,
higher manufacturing costs (due to naphtha cost) and no capacity expansion. Since 2009,
fertilizer policy has, however, shifted away from regulated returns in complex fertilizers to
import parity realizations. NBS has sparked hopes of prosperity in the industry. NBS policy
for decontrolled Phosphatic & Potassic (P&K) fertilizers has been implemented wef April
2010. Under NBS, the subsidy on decontrolled P&K fertilizers is determined for each
nutrient on per kg basis and fixed by the Government on annual basis. NBS is fixed taking
into consideration affordability of the farmer and prevalent price level of fertilizers and
fertilizer inputs in the international market at that time. Since the subsidy for each grade of
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
12
fertilizers is fixed for a year, the Maximum Retail Price (MRP) of fertilizers at farm gate level
has been freed. Accordingly, the MRP of P&K fertilizers is decided and fixed by the fertilizer
producing companies or the importers. However, they are required to print MRP along with
applicable amount of subsidy on each fertilizer bag clearly.
The international prices of fertilizers and its raw materials in the year 2011 increased
substantially as compared to the prices in the year 2010. This increase in international
prices of fertilizers and its raw materials were taken into account while fixing the subsidy
rate under the NBS Scheme for the year 2011-12. However, any further increase or
decrease in international prices of fertilizers and its raw material is expected to have some
effect in the MRP of these fertilizers. The NBS was a life-changer for the industry and
potential for profits of companies has increased.
SSP IMPORTS AND IMPORT PRICES HAVE INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY IN FY12 AND COMPLEX
FERTILIZER OUTPUT IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE IN FY13:
SSP imports in 9MFY12 were ~32% higher than that in 9MFY11. SSP import prices in FY12
have been significantly higher as well. As seen in the chart above titled “Import Trends and
Prices”, a spike in import prices is observed from May 2011 along with a rise in import
quantity. This has resulted in ~80% rise in value of imports of SSP. It is evident that the
demand for SSP remains robust despite higher prices however, domestic supply is unable
to cater to the demand (as shown in the graph below, domestic production of SSP has
remained in the 225,000 MT to 240,000 MT for almost 3 years). Domestic players are
adding capacities but additional supplies could take over a year to reach the market. In the
meanwhile, the present SSP manufacturers could experience good times in the form of
higher demand and realizations in an era where NBS provides incentives listed above.
India’s fertilizer production is pegged at 36.87 million tonnes in 2012-13, up over 8% from
last fiscal. While urea production is estimated at previous year's level of 22.57 million
tonnes, the output of complex fertilizers and DAP has been pegged higher at 9.98 million
tonnes and 4.31 million tonnes, respectively, this year. Last fiscal, production of complex
fertilizers and DAP was estimated at 7.82 million tonnes and 3.71 million tonnes each. As
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
13
estimated by the government, complex fertilizer output is expected to increase by ~28% in
FY13, indicating a possible good year for SSP.
POSSIBLE DECONTROL OF UREA PRICES:
In an effort to decontrol prices, the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers approved the NBS
in March 2010. The introduction of this subsidy led to the freedom of pricing. However, due
to its high demand and usage and low price, urea price was not decontrolled. The
government has increased urea prices at times indicating an effort to decontrol them as well
but the final plunge is yet to be taken. Indian farmers overuse urea, as it is cheap because
of high government subsidy. This also results in the government spending close to Rs.
21,500 cr on Urea subsidy (FY11), which accounts for ~40% of the government’s total
fertilizer subsidy expense. An overdose of urea has led to degradation of land quality, a
problem that could be solved by using phosphoric fertilizers to neutralize the land. A
possible decontrol in urea pricing could lead to a significant jump in its price and hence, loss
of attractiveness. Presently the price of Urea is ~Rs. 5.3/kg while that of SSP is ~Rs. 6.0/kg
and DAP ~Rs.19.0/kg. While the difference between urea and SSP does not seem too
large, that between SSP and DAP is wide enough. Hence to restore soil quality, the farmer
will be willing to buy SSP (slightly expensive compared to urea – but far cheaper than DAP).
If Urea prices are decontrolled, they are likely to become higher than those of SSP and
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
14
farmers would consider shifting to SSP even more to enhance the quality of their land. That
being said, the timing and certainty of such decontrol (of urea) cannot be ascertained
presently. As per reports, the fertilizer ministry is likely to send the new urea policy
proposing a 10% hike in prices to the Cabinet for approval. In the past ten years, the
government has raised urea prices only once by 10% to Rs. 5.3/kg. If the prices are revised,
it will help the government to reduce its subsidy bill by ~ Rs. 2,000 crore.
POSITIVE OUTLOOK FOR THE FERTILIZER INDUSTRY IN THE BUDGET FOR 2012-2013:
Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee in his budget speech for FY13 made announcements
that are likely to benefit fertilisers and agriculture related companies. The provision for
fertiliser subsidy was reduced to Rs. 60,794 crore from Rs. 67,199 cr in FY12.
The government announced that investment -linked deduction of capital expenditure
incurred is proposed to be provided at the enhanced rate of 150% as against 100% at
present for fertilizer. It exempted 5% customs duty on import of equipment for initial setting
up or substantial expansion of fertilizer projects for a period of three years. The finance
minister in his speech also said that the focus would now be to encourage the use of SSP
more because for the government that subsidy is easy to control and good for the crops as
well. Basic customs duty on a few soluble fertilizers and liquid fertilizers, other than urea,
has been reduced from 7.5% to 5% and from 5% to 2.5% respectively. Also, complete
exemption from basic customs duty will be provided to new fertilizer projects, a move that
will encourage new entrants and push existing players to set up new plants.
FALL IN DAP IMPORTS AND CONTINUED PRICE DIFFERENTIAL DENOTE SHIFT IN BUYING FROM
DAP TO SSP:
Import of key fertiliser DAP has declined by 7% to 6.87 million tonnes in the April-February
period of FY12. India had imported 7.41 million tonnes of the important crop nutrient in the
year-ago period. The requirement of DAP in the rabi 2011-12 season (October-February)
stood at 5.16 million tonnes, while the availability of the soil nutrient was 5.62 million tonnes
during the period. Reduction in DAP usage could indicate an increase in SSP usage in the
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
15
same period. DAP is significantly more expensive than SSP and Urea. DAP costs ~Rs.
19/kg while SSP costs only Rs. 6/kg and Urea costs ~Rs. 5.3/kg. The huge price differential
discourages farmers from using DAP. Moreover, over the years, the price difference
between DAP and Urea has widened from ~50% in FY11 to ~70% in FY12. However, the
landed cost of imported DAP has fallen in the last six months, from $ 675-660 a tonne to
around $ 540, with expectations of it easing further to $ 510-520 levels. As DAP consists of
46% phosphorous (compared to 16% in SSP), it is more impacted by phosphorous prices. A
higher reduction in subsidy on phosphorous and in turn on DAP has helped SSP become
more competitive vis-à-vis DAP. This situation could reverse only if there is a sharp
reduction in prices of phosphorous. In such an event, reduction in DAP prices could
cannibalise SSP consumption. Till then SSP consumption could keep rising steadily.
CONCERNS
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITY AND SEASONALITY:
The fertilizer industry is entirely dependant on the agriculture industry, which in turn is
dependant on several factors such as quality of seeds and soil, irrigation and weather.
Weather is a factor beyond the control of any individual and any extreme weather in a year
(drought, flood, excess heat/cold etc) could negatively impact the sales of the industry.
Moreover, the kharif and rabi seasons in the agriculture industry make demand for fertilizers
seasonal. Q4 is traditionally a dull quarter across the SSP industry with low volumes
followed by Q2, which means that the results of Q4FY12 might not be impressive across the
board.
RAW MATERIAL PRICES:
Major raw materials of the industry are Phosphate rock, Sulphuric Acid, Sulphur and
Calcium. Sulphur prices have been rising and landed cost for the raw material in September
2011 was close to 40% higher than that in September 2010. While prices are still far below
their 2007-2008 highs, the current uptrend could diminish margins. Phosphate rock prices
have been rising steadily for a couple of years as well and are currently close to 70% higher
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
16
than they were two years ago and close to 35% higher than they were a year ago. A steady
increase in phosphate rock prices has led to an increase in SSP prices globally. However,
urea prices have also increased significantly over the years as well and a possible
liberalization/decontrol in urea prices by the government will increase the attractiveness of
SSP. A further increase in phosphate rock, sulphur or sulphuric acid prices could put
pressure on SSP manufacturers’ margins. While the NBS permits manufacturers to
determine MRP, they do maintain the right to interfere in case of a high increase in farmgate
prices. Hence the increase in raw material cost in such circumstances cannot be completely
passed on to the farmers. The competitive advantage now lies in robust backward linkages
and companies that are able to negotiate long-term contracts for raw materials at a
relatively low rate win.
GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION ON SUBSIDIES/PRICES:
The Government of India is likely to make efforts to reduce its subsidy burden through
partial decontrol of Urea prices. The government’s effort to reduce subsidies is closely
linked to international prices of the fertilizers as well as prices of raw materials. Phosphoric
Acid (a significant raw material for the industry) prices have risen significantly. A future
reduction in subsidy to bring down its burden or to stay in line with international finished
goods prices cannot be ruled out. Such a reduction could pose a significant threat to the
SSP companies’ topline and margins. Further any policy changes by the Government (on
subsidy, imports, distribution etc) could also impact the fortunes of the fertiliser companies.
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD

FOREX RISK:
Forex risk is a major concern for most players in the industry as most of the raw material
used in the industry is imported. Rama Phosphate used Rs. 75.5 cr of forex in FY11.
Khaitan Chemicals used ~Rs. 94.8 cr in FY11 and earned only Rs. 0.9 cr in the year.
Liberty Phosphates used Rs. 74.6 cr of forex in FY11 and earned only Rs. 0.3 cr of forex in
the year. As mentioned earlier, India is dependent on imported feedstock (rock phosphate,
phosphoric acid), as domestic capacities have not matched the growth in demand. With the
current depreciation in the value of the Rupee, companies could report forex losses in the
coming quarters/year. Forex loss for 9MFY12 for Khaitan Chemicals and Liberty
Phosphates was Rs. 13.8 cr and Rs. 5.5 cr respectively.
CONCLUSION
After the NBS was put into effect in 2010, non-urea fertilizers have seen good times. SSP
is highly nutritious for the soil and the government is trying to promote its use to prevent soil
from getting exhausted due to overuse of Urea. The India fertilizer market has been growing
with the fertilizer quantity per kilo of food grain steadily rising. While the NBS’ goal is to
decontrol the fertilizer industry, the government could still interfere when required. India is
one of the largest fertilizer consumers in the world and with stagnant domestic supply,
imports have been increasing. Several large players are in the process of adding SSP
capacities as the current market structure makes it an extremely profitable venture. Finished
goods prices have increased significantly due to decontrol and an increase in global raw
material prices. Despite a fall in DAP prices, there is a large price difference between DAP
and SSP and a relatively small price difference between SSP and Urea. In the possible
scenario of decontrolled Urea prices, SSP companies will benefit significantly. SSP sales
depend on agriculture, which makes it a seasonal industry. All SSP manufacturers import
raw material, exposing them all to forex risk. Moreover, government regulation in a farmer-
sensitive industry is always a major concern. Seeing the niche price-nutrient advantage, it
is believed that the SSP space is expected to perform well in the near to medium term.

MARKET SCENARIO
Fertilizer in the agricultural process is an important area of concern. Fertilizer industry in
India has succeeded in meeting the demand of all chemical fertilizers in the recent years.
An impetus to the growth of fertilizer industry in India was given by Green revolution in
Sixties. Further a significant addition to the production was witnessed in seventies and
eighties. The fertilizer industry has played a pivotal role in achieving self sufficiency in food
grains as well as in rapid and sustained agricultural growth.
India is third largest producer and consumer in the world after China and the United States.
According to given Statistics, total capacity of the industry as on 30.01.2003 has reached a
level of 121.10 lakh MT of nitrogen (inclusive of an installed capacity of 208.42 lakh MT of
urea after reassessment of capacity) and 53.60 lakh MT of phosphate nutrient. The growth
of Indian fertilizer has been largely determined by the policies pursued by the government
which mainly confine to controls on the pricing, distribution and movement of fertilizers. The
industry is capital intensive and the production process energy intensive with the combined
cost of feedstock and fuel accounting for anywhere between 55 and 80 per cent of cost of
production, depending on the type of fertilizers.
PRESENT STATUS OF FERTLIZER INDUSTRY
India being the third largest producer and consumer of fertilizers in the world with an
installed capacity of Nitrogen (N) and Phosphate (P) nutrients at 14 million tones p.a. Urea,
a nitrogenous type of fertilizer, is most widely consumed in India. Currently the urea
capacity is 20.2 million tonnes while consumption is 21.7-million tonnes. Fertilizer
production is highly energy intensive with cost of feedstock and fuel alone accounting for
between 55 to 80 per cent of the cost of production. Plants in India is based primarily on
three feed stock naphtha, fuel oil and natural gas with a significant proportion of domestic
capacity of urea plants based on naphtha or fuel oil which cost more than natural gas. High
cost feedstock and increased production/consumption have caused a steady increase in
fertilizer subsidy. The investment in the fertilizer industry witnessed a rapid growth rate over
the successive plan periods for creation of new capacities and expansion of the existing
units. The amount increased to Rs 154.77 bn by the end of the Eighth Plan and to Rs
256.44 bn by the end of the Ninth Plan.
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD

Over the past few years, the import dependence for the supply of urea, phosphatic fertilizers
and DAP has increased as the domestic production has not been sufficient to meet the
demand, thus leaving a gap between demand and supply. The entire demand for potassium
fertilizer is met through imports as the domestic sources of potash are of low-quality and are
uneconomical for exploitation. This has also led to an increase in the subsidy outgo. To
support the domestic fertilizer production, the government has announced a cut back in the
customs duty on crude and unrefined sulphur from 5% to 2% during FY09 and has
exempted naphtha from the import duty. India is capable of attaining self-sufficiency in urea
production considering the current availability and projected availability of hydrocarbon
(natural gas) resources in India; natural gas is an important feedstock for urea. In the past
years, the import dependence has increased in the sector due to the lack of significant
investments and rising demand and supply gap. India has been importing urea from the
UAE and the CIS countries continuously over the years, however, currently China has been
emerging as the largest-importing country.
Over the years, near stagnation in capacity expansion and lack of investments in the
fertilizer sector increased the demand-supply gap, and therefore, the imports. Unless,
sufficient capacity expansion and exploitation of new sources of raw material does not take
place, the burden of subsidy is not likely to come down.
FERTILZERS DEMAND & CONSUMPTION
Growing population and shrinking land resources have led to vertical expansion of
agriculture, that is, have increased the number of crop cycles. Fertilizers play an important
role in increasing the fertility of the soil and thus productivity. However, fertilizer
consumption also depends on various agriculture related factors such as soil quality,
farming methods, cropping pattern, rainfall and irrigation patterns, different geographical
aspects, calamities, availability of technology and information, varieties and quality of seeds
as well as access to capital and credit and other inputs. Moreover, macro oriented factors
such as crop-related market forces and fertilizer pricing policies also influence fertilizer
consumption. The average annual growth of fertilizer consumption achieved at the end of
the Tenth Plan was about4%. During the start of the Tenth Plan Period, that is, FY03, the
country was drought affected, and therefore, its consumption of fertilizers fell by about
7.30% over the previous year. However, the growth in consumption started picking up
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
20
during the following years. In fact, the increase in consumption was higher than the growth
in production and the balance was met with imports.
INVESTMENT AND GROWTH IN SSP FERTILIZERS
SSP is a cheaper alternative to the popular diammonium phosphate (DAP) and is obtained
through a chemical reaction between rock phosphate and sulphuric acid. It provides critical
potassium nutrients to soils while also adding calcium and sulphur micronutrients at a
relatively low price.
SSP DEMAND GROWTH
SSP demand in India has grown in recent years as the cost of its more expensive
substitute, DAP, has risen. DAP prices have gained in recent years due to rising demand for
phosphate products, which has put the product out of reach for many of India’s food
producers. The situation was exacerbated when the Indian government announced a 27.4-
percent reduction in phosphate fertilizer price support for the 2012 to 2013 fiscal year in
March of last year.
India’s modern nutrient-based subsidy policy for complex fertilizers was introduced in 1992
after the sector was “decontrolled” and witnessed rapidly expanding prices. Subsidies were
extended to SSP in 1993, and a number of changes to the subsidy formula occurred along
the way.
But with recent claw backs in the nutrient-price assistance that is provided to farmers, SSP
has become the only phosphate fertilizer that many Indian farmers can afford.
SSP production is primarily attractive because of its low price point. The relative ease of
production and the fact that it can be produced using locally sourced rock phosphate, a
quality of phosphate that is not appropriate for DAP production, are also making it an
increasingly popular product. Currently, all Indian DAP products are imported from foreign
producers like Moroccan phosphate producer Office Cherifien des Phosphates and Russian
fertilizer group Phosagro (MCX:PHOR). That is problematic because in 2011 India used
about twice as much DAP as it did SSP, with 7 and 3.1 million tonnes respectively being
consumed, according to Fertilizer Association of India data provided by Reuters.
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
21
The belief is that higher DAP prices will cause SSP demand to increase, allowing it to
potentially rise to 4 million tonnes in 2012.
NUTRIENT BASED SUBSIDY
In the context of Nation’s food security, the declining response of agricultural productivity to
increased fertilizer usage in the country and to ensure the balanced application of fertilizers,
the Government has introduced the Nutrient Based Subsidy (NBS) Policy with effect from
1.4.2010 for decontrolled P & K fertilizers (w.e.f. 1.5.2010 for SSP). As per this policy, the
fertilizers namely DAP, MOP, NPKS complexes, MAP, TSP, Ammonium Sulphate (AS) and
Single Super Phosphate (SSP) are provided to the farmers at the subsidized rates based on
the nutrients (N, P, K & S) contained in these fertilizers.. NBS has been announced for
2010-11 on annual basis based on prevailing international prices and price trends. The
details of Nutrient Based Subsidy Policy are as under:
NBS is applicable for Di Ammonium Phosphate (DAP, 18-46-0), Muriate of Potash (MOP),
Mono Ammonium Phosphate (MAP, 11-52-0), Triple Super Phosphate (TSP, 0-46-0), 12
grades of complex fertilizers and Ammonium Sulphate (AS - (Caprolactum grade by GSFC
and FACT), which were covered under the earlier Concession Scheme for Phosphatic and
Potassic (P&K) fertilizers up to 31st March 2010 and Single Super Phosphate (SSP).
Primary nutrients, namely Nitrogen 'N', Phosphate 'P' and Potash 'K' and nutrient Sulphur
'S' contained in the fertilizers mentioned above are eligible for NBS.
Any variant of the fertilizers mentioned above with secondary and micro-nutrients (except
Sulphur 'S'), as provided for under FCO, is also eligible for subsidy. The secondary and
micro-nutrients (except 'S') in such fertilizers attracts a separate per tonne subsidy to
encourage their application along with primary nutrients.
NBS to be paid annually on each nutrient namely, 'N', 'P', 'K' and 'S' has been decided by
the Government for 2010-11 on recommendation of IMC. For 2010-11, per kg NBS and per
tonne NBS for each subsidized fertilizer w.e.f 1st April 2010 has been announced.
Distribution and movement of fertilizers along with import of finished fertilizers, fertilizer
inputs and production by indigenous units continues to be monitored through the online web
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
22
based "Fertilizer Monitoring System (FMS)" as being done under the outgoing Concession
Scheme for P&K fertilizers.
20% of the price decontrolled fertilizers produced/imported in India is now in the movement
control under the Essential Commodities Act 1955 (ECA). Department of Fertilizers will
regulate the movement of these fertilizers to bridge the supplies in under-served areas.
In addition to NBS, freight for the movement and distribution of the decontrolled fertilizers by
rail and road is being provided to enable wider availability of fertilizers in the country.
Import of all the subsidized P&K fertilizers, including 13 grades of complex fertilizers has
been placed under Open General License (OGL). Earlier, no concession was available for
imported complex fertilizers. Now, NBS is available for imported complex fertilizers also.
However, subsidy will not be applicable on imported Ammonium Sulphate (AS), as NBS is
applicable only to Ammonium Sulphate produced by FACT and GSFC, both Public Sector
entities. Import of Urea is canalized during the first phase of NBS Policy and Urea continues
under Government control. MRP of Urea has been increased by 10% w.e.f. 1.4.2010 and is
' 5310 PMT.
Though the market price of subsidized fertilizers, except Urea is determined based on
demand-supply balance, the fertilizer companies are required to print Maximum Retail Price
(MRP) along with applicable subsidy on the fertilizer bags clearly. Any sale above the
printed net MRP is punishable under the EC Act.
Manufacturers of customized fertilizers and mixture fertilizers are eligible to source
subsidized fertilizers from the manufacturers/ importers after their receipt in the districts as
inputs for manufacturing customized fertilizers and mixture fertilizers for agricultural
purpose. There is no separate subsidy on sale of customized fertilizers and mixture
fertilizers.
The NBS is being released through the industry during the first phase. The payment of NBS
to the manufacturers/ importers of DAP/MOP/Complex Fertilizers/ MAP/TSP, SSP and AS
is released as per the procedure notified by the Department.

BENEFITS OF NUTRIENT BASED SUBSIDY (NBS):
The NBS announced in March 2010 has had several positive implications for non-urea
fertilizer manufacturers. Some benefits include:
Companies can now compete on cost efficiency, brand equity, distribution network
etc by charging competitive prices.
Companies can introduce various innovative products as opposed to the specific
products as mentioned under the Product Based Subsidy Scheme earlier.
Companies with stronger bargaining power with raw material suppliers can broaden
their margins.
Non-urea companies can compete as in a free market.
Companies can develop brands, an exercise that could benefit the company in the
long-term.
The government can reduce its subsidy related administrative expense.
MARKET DEMAND
SSP companies are currently on a good run. After the NBS was put into effect in 2010, non-
urea fertilizers have seen good times. SSP is highly nutritious for the soil and the
government is trying to promote its use to prevent soil from getting exhausted due to
overuse of Urea. The India fertilizer market has been growing with the fertilizer quantity per
kilo of food grain steadily rising. While the NBS’ goal is to decontrol the fertilizer industry,
the government could still interfere when required. India is one of the largest fertilizer
consumers in the world and with stagnant domestic supply, imports have been increasing.
Several large players are in the process of adding SSP capacities as the current market
structure makes it an extremely profitable venture. Finished goods prices have increased
significantly due to decontrol and an increase in global raw material prices. Despite a fall in
DAP prices, there is a large price difference between DAP and SSP and a relatively small
price difference between SSP and Urea. In the possible scenario of decontrolled Urea
prices, SSP companies will benefit significantly. SSP sales depend on agriculture, which
makes it a seasonal industry.
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
24
In the state of Orissa, the entire market is currently supplied by manufacturers of SSP from
either Andhra Pradesh or West Bengal resulting in inconsistent supplies as these states
meet their home demands and supply only the residual production to Orissa. Being a cost-
effective fertilizer, SSP is critical for the small and marginal farmers who don’t have the
financial strength to purchase other high priced fertilizers. With a low cost fertilizer easily
available, added with suitable incentives to the stockists, consumption would be high.
Additionally, with a local production facility and transport subsidy available, the
transportation costs would be substantially reduced. Alternatively, SSP can be sold to large
companies wishing to increase their product mix by procuring SSP from small
manufacturers on a regular basis. SSP is also an exportable commodity with key markets
like Thailand and Bangladesh identified by the Government of India.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS
PRODUCTION CHEMISTRY Superphosphate is manufactured from the reaction between Phosphate rock and Sulphuric
acid. Phosphate rock is rich in the mineral fluarapatite, which reacts with the Sulphuric acid
to give superphosphate. The chemical reaction is as follows:
2Ca5 (PO4)3F + 7H2SO4 + 3H20 7CaSO4 + 3Ca(H2PO4)2H2O + 2HF
The production of single phosphate (SSP) is basically the conversion of insoluble P2O5 to
soluble P2O5 by chemical reaction between phosphate ore and dilute Sulphuric acid in
definite proportion. Rock Phosphate contains Tri Calcium Phosphate, which is insoluble in
water and hence cannot be taken by plants, however, the product of reaction is Mono
Calcium Phosphate, which is soluble in water and can be taken by plants. The reactants,
originally thin slurry, set to a solid mass during the reaction. The entire process could take
up to 21 days. Granulated Single Super Phosphate (GSSP) is manufactured by feeding
SSP powder to a rotating Granulator drum in which the powder SSP is mixed with water
resulting in the formation of granules. The granules are then discharged to a rotary dryer
drum and consequently cooled in a cooler drum. After cooling of the granules, granules are
passed through vibrating screens of desired mesh and then packed in 50 kg HDPE bags for
sale as GSSP. The use of granulated product is more beneficial than the use of powder.
The powder dissolves immediately in irrigation water and becomes readily available. Plants
use some part of it while the remaining goes to the sub soil with water and remains useless.
The powder can be used only during sowing of seeds. It cannot be used on growing crops
as it gets deposited on the leaves of the plants and being slightly acidic, burns them. The
granulated product rolls down the plant and can be used harmlessly on standing crops. The
biggest advantage in using the granulated product is that it is available to the crops for a
longer time because it dissolves slowly.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Superphosphate is the fertilizer most commonly used in agriculture, to ensure that soil has a
sufficiently high phosphorous content. It is manufactured from the reaction between sulfuric
acid and ’phosphate rock’ (rock rich in the mineral fluorapatite, Ca5(PO4)3F) :
2Ca5(PO4)3F + 7H2SO4 + 3H2O → 7CaSO4 + 3Ca(H2PO4)2.H2O + 2HF
The basic reaction in the manufacture of superphosphate is the reaction of insoluble
phosphate rock with sulfuric acid to form the soluble calcium di-hydrogen phosphate,
Ca(H2PO4)2. This is described by the following equation:
PO4 3- + H2SO4 → H2PO4- + SO42-
The phosphate rock, imported from Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Algeria and the USA, is mainly
fluorapatite, Ca5(PO4)3F and is equivalent to 70 - 85% Ca3(PO4)2 by weight. The actual
composition of the phosphate rock varies with the source. The sulfuric acid is produced on
the site as described in the previous section. The reactions occurring during the production
of superphosphate are complex and are usually summarised as follows:
1. Ca5(PO4)3F + 5H2SO4 → 5CaSO4 + 3H3PO4 + HF
2. Ca5(PO4)3F + 7H3PO4 + 5H2O → 5Ca(H2PO4)2.H2O + HF
These reactions can be combined to give the overall equation:
2Ca5(PO4)3F + 7H2SO4 + 3H2O → 7CaSO4 + 3Ca(H2PO4)2 .H2O + 2HF
The production of Single Super Phosphate (SSP) is the conversion of insoluble P2O5 to
soluble P2O5 by chemical reaction between phosphate ore and dilutes sulphuric Acid in
definite proportion. Rock Phosphate contains Tri Calcium Phosphate which is insoluble in
water and hence cannot be taken by plants, however, the product of reaction is mono
calcium phosphate, which is soluble in water and can be taken by plants . The reactants,
originally thin slurry, set to solid mass during the reaction.
There are other reactions occurring at the same time. For example, virtually all the HF
reacts with other silica minerals associated with the fluorapatite (silicates, quartz) to form
silicon tetra fluoride. These gaseous emissions are recovered as hydrofluosilicic acid
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD

(H2SiF6) in the scrubbing system. Carbonates in the rock also react with sulfuric acid. The
production of superphosphate consists of three distinct steps. See the process flow diagram
Step 1 - Phosphate rock blending and grinding
Phosphate rock from different sources have different phosphate, fluoride and silica
contents. These rocks are mixed in the blending plant to produce a product with a total
phosphate concentration of 15%. The phosphate rock mixture is passed through a hammer
mill which reduces the particle size to 0.5cm or less. The coarsely ground rock is then
passed through an air swept roller mill (Bradley Mill) to attain a rock grist of approximately
75% less than 75 microns. The powdered rock is stored in a large hopper. The powder
handling system is fitted with a dust collection system.
Step 2 - Superphosphate manufacture
The ground rock and sulfuric acid are reacted in a horizontal mixer. The feed rates are
approximately:
• Phosphate rock - 25 tonnes/hour
• 98% Sulfuric acid - 14.5 tonnes/hour
• Water - 6 tonnes/hour
A continuous flow of the sloppy mix drops out of the mixer into the Broadfield Den. The den
consists of a slowly moving floor (approx. 300 mm/min) to enable setting of the .cake. and
reciprocating sides, which prevent the superphosphate adhering to the walls. The partially
matured superphosphate cake is cut out of the den with a rotating cutter wheel after a
retention time of approximately 30 minutes. Additives such as limestone, potassium chloride
(potash) and ammonium sulphate may be added to the superphosphate before it is worked
further in the conditioner.The conditioner consists of a set of rotating paddles which break-
up and knead the product. Water is usually added to improve the product consistency for
granulation.
Step 3 - Granulation
CEE VEE AGRIENCE PVT. LTD
37
The granulation process is important in producing superphosphate of the required physical
properties. The granulation circuit consists of a pulveriser, granulation drum and classifier.
The pulveriser breaks up any lumps in the product before it is fed to the granulation drum.
The granulation drum rolls and agglomerates the superphosphate to form granules. The
incline of the drum and the feed rate determine the retention time and bed depth. The
granules are passed out of the end of the drum and through a classifier (wire screen).
Oversize granules (>6 mm) are recycled through the drum via the pulveriser while the
finished product is conveyed to the product stores. The superphosphate continues to cure in
the store for about two weeks and the product is .dressed. (oversize is passed through a
hammer mill after screening) before dispatch. Trace elements and other nitrogen or
potassium-containing compounds can be dryblended with superphosphate to give complete
fertilisers to meet different requirements.

SWOT ANALYSIS
STRENGTH
The Promoter has immense exposure & experience with large Multinationals and
Indian companies like TATA Group, Reliance, Ranbaxy and Maruti Udyog Limited,
Single Super Phosphate is a very simple, convenient and cheapest fertilizer that
supports various types of agricultural produce. SSP is extensively used in agri-
economies as it is cheap, affordable and provides the basic ingredient to soil. Lowest
price per kg (in non-urea space) preferred by small and marginal farmers.
As per the State Government’s estimate, Orissa faces an annual shortfall of over 2
lakh Tons of SSP as there are no SSP manufacturers in the state.
The complete plant and machinery will be supplied by Gayatri Ferti plants an
experienced technical people and has done 18 projects in 14 countries worldwide
WEAKNESS
The operations of the company will be sensitive to the variation in the raw material
price i.e. Rock phosphate and Sulphuric Acid, affect the profitability of the company.
OPPORTUNITIES
There is huge potential of SSP as one of the important input input in Agriculture
Vast & growing market of Fertilizers and the demand of SSP are increasing rapidly.
There is an acute shortage of SSP in Orissa state therefore enough scope for
expansion.
THREATS
SSP is covered under the NBS (Nutrient Based Subsidy) scheme and therefore
depends upon the Government policies. Any change in the policy may affect the
profitability of the company.
The major raw material requires for SSP is Rock phosphate and the same is
available from the mines located at Rajasthan. Any change in the policy may affect
the operations of the company. However this can be mitigated by an option to import
the same.
