In todays globalize world, where cutthroat competition is prevailing
in the market, theoretical knowledge is not sufficient. Beside this one need
to have practical knowledge, which would help an individual in his/her
carrier activities and it is true that Experience is the best teacher.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
With immense pleasure, I would like to present this project report for
IOCL. It has been an enriching experience for me to undergo my summer
training at PEPSI, which would not have possible without the goodwill and
support of the people around. As a student of BBDNITM I would like to
express my sincere thanks too all those who helped me during my practical
training programme.
My heartfelt thanks go to all who helped me to gain knowledge aboutthe actual working and the processes involved in various departments.
However, I accept the sole responsibility for any possible error of
omission and would be extremely grateful to the readers of this project
report if they bring such mistakes to my notice.

INTRODUCTION
The use of non-recourse project financing has grown steadily in emerging markets,
especially in basic infrastructure, natural resources and the energy sector. Because of its
cost and complexity, project finance is aimed at large-scale investments. The key is in the
precise estimation of cash flows and risk analysis and allocation, which enables high
leverage, and in ensuring that the project can be easily separated from the sponsors
involved.
Indian Oil Corporation Ltd is Indias largest commercial enterprise with leading market
shares in downstream segment of Oil business. A number of projects are undertaken by
IOCL to improve its infrastructure and increase its profitability. These projects are to be
properly evaluated and their feasibility needs to be checked. And thus the need for
Project financing arises.
This project has been undertaken in the Finance department (Pipelines Division) of
IOCL, which is responsible for the financing and evaluation of the project in pipeline
division. In this project, a modest attempt has been made to study and understand Project
finance and project evaluation with respect to Kanpur-Lucknow R-LNG pipeline.

PIPELINES DIVISION IN IOCL
Indian Oil, the pioneer in cross-country petroleum product pipeline in the Indian sub-
continent constructed and commissioned its first petroleum product pipeline, Guwahati-
Siliguri Pipeline in the year 1964. Since then Indian Oil has mastered the art and
technology of pipeline engineering. Over the last four decades the pipeline network of
Indian Oil has grown to 9273 km with a capacity of about 62 million metric tonnes per
year. IOCL owns approximately 67% of Indias total throughput capacity.
Pipelines offer a cost effective, energy efficient, safe and environment friendly method to
transport petroleum products from refineries to demand areas and crude oil from import
terminals as well as domestic sources to the inland refineries. India being a vast country,
a wide network of pipelines is required for transporting petroleum products to interiors
from refineries and crude oil to the refineries.
Indian Oils sustained pursuit and implementation of proven safety and environmentalmanagement systems have brought rich results. All operating pipeline units have been
accredited with ISO 9000 and ISO 14001 certificates.
WHY PIPELINES ARE PREFFERED?

PROJECT FINANCE
Schemes in which investment is made in anticipation of deriving future benefits there
from are known as projects. Project is a package of measures selected to reach an
objective that has been precisely designated beforehand and is objectively verifiable.
Project financing is a loan structure that relies primarily on the project's cash flow for
repayment, with the project's assets, rights, and interests held as secondary security or
collateral. Project finance is especially attractive to the private sector because they can
fund major projects off balance sheet. Project financing involves identifying the project,
determining the feasibility of the project, identifying sources of finance for the project,
mitigating the risk and monitoring implementation of the project. It is most commonly
used in the mining, transportation, telecommunication and public utility industries.
NEED OF PROJECT FINANCE
Project finance is a finance structure which ensures that the projects are
environmentally, socially, economically and politically viable.
Traditional methods are not suitable for projects which have a long life and
require huge capital investment.
Risk sharing is another unique feature of project finance which traditional
methods do not provide.
Project Finance improves the return on capital in a project by leveraging the
investment
Project finance facilitates careful project evaluation & risk assessment

Project Selection Criteria
1. RISK ANALYSIS
Risk analysis is a technique to identify and assess factors that may jeopardize the success
of the project. Risks associated with capital investment proposals can be broadly
classified as:
Financial Risk
Other Risk
Financial Risk
Financial risk is defined as the possibility that the actual return on an investment will be
different from the expected return. Many techniques are available for determining
financial risk involved with the projects like Risk adjusted Discount Rate, Certainty
Equivalent, Sensitivity Analysis, DCF, Break Even Analysis, Probability Assignment,
Standard Deviation etc.
Other Risks
Other risks constitute risks which may be an obstacle in the success/ Completion of the
project. Risks which can be included in other risk are
Availability Risk
Completion (technical and timing) Risk
Counterparty credit risk
31

32/97
Financial Analysis
Country (political) Risk
Inflation Risk
Input and throughput Risk
Market (demand) Risk
Technological Risks
2. DEMAND ANALYSIS
Success of a project depends on the projects usage potential and user willingness to pay.
Demand analysis involves forecasting the demand on the basis of market surveys and
manufacturing capacity of the unit and this is decided through the study of demand and
supply. The potential users, their habits, and possibility of changing these habits, the
pricing of the products, the designing are studied under demand forecasting. In the
demand analysis we check if there is a scope for laying a pipeline, if the demand at
destination is less, then a pipeline is not required.
The major Steps in demand analysis are
Determining different uses of a project output Determining current consumption level and future demand
Finding financial and economical benefits from the project
. PROJECT COST ESTIMATION
Accurate estimation of costs is vital for the effective evaluation of the project since it is
important for knowing the financial feasibility of the project. The capital costs and
operating costs of the project is considered in this step.
32
7/30/2019 Financial Analysis on Iocl
33/97
Financial Analysis
The following factors needs to be kept in mind while estimating costs.
Base Cost Estimate
Contingency Costs
Cost Factor for difference between domestic & foreign inflation rates
Financing cost incurred during the construction period on loans specifically
borrowed for project is capitalized at the actual borrowing rates.
4. REVENUE ANALYSIS
Revenue analysis is estimation of the revenues which would be earned in the future.
Revenue projections are formed on the basis of Output sales. It helps in finding out theprofits/ losses in the future. Revenue analysis is all the more important in project finance
because the debts have to be repaid through the revenues generated by the project.
5. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Financial analysis refers to an assessment of the viability, stability & profitability of a
project. It seeks to ascertain whether the proposed project will be financially viable in the
sense of being able to meet the burden of servicing debt and whether the project will
satisfy the return expectations of those who provide the capital.
6. PROJECT SELECTION CRITERIA
Once information about expected return and costs has been gathered, the next question
arises: whether the project should be selected or not. There are many methods of
evaluating the profitability of the project. The various commonly used methods are as
follows:
1) PAY-BACK PERIOD METHOD: It represents the period in which the total
investment in permanent assets pays back itself. Under this method various
33
7/30/2019 Financial Analysis on Iocl
34/97
Financial Analysis
investments are ranked according to the length of their pay-back period and the
investment with a shortest pay back period is preferred. The pay-back period can be
ascertained in the following manner:
Payback period = Investment
Cash Flows/year
2) AVERAGE RATE OF RETURN METHOD: This method takes into account the
earnings expected from the investment over their whole life. According to this
method the project with the highest rate of return is selected. The return on
investment is calculated with the help of following formula.
ARR = Average Annual Profits after depreciation & Taxes x 100
Average Investment
Where, Average Investment = Original Investment + Salvage Value
2
3) NET PRESENT VALUE METHODS: The Net present value method is the modern
method of evaluating investment proposals. This method takes into consideration the
time value of money and attempts to calculate the return on investments by
introducing the factor of time-element.
NPV= Present value of cash inflows Present value of cash outflows.
4) INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN METHOD: It is also known as trial & error yield
method. The following steps are required to practice the internal rate of return method:
34
7/30/2019 Financial Analysis on Iocl
35/97
Financial Analysis
a) Determine the future net cash flows during the entire economic life of the project.
The cash inflows are estimated for future profits before depreciation but after
taxes.
b) Determine the rate of discount at which the value of cash inflows is equal to the
present value of cash outflows. If annual cash flows are equal then it can be easily
found out otherwise it has to be found out by hit and trial method.
c) Accept the proposal if the IRR is higher than or equal to the minimum required
rate of return i.e. cost of capital or otherwise reject the proposal.
d) In case of alternative proposals select the proposal with highest IRR.
5) PROFITABILITY INDEX
This method is also known as benefit cost ratio and is similar to NPV approach. It
measures the Present Value of returns per rupee invested based on the following
formula:
PI = Present value of Cash Inflows
Present value of cash Outflows

Capital Investment plays a vital role for overall growth and financial health of any
Company. Such investments are necessary for continued growth of the organization,
updation of Technology, overall improvement in productivity and efficiency,
enhancement of capacities, fulfillment of social objectives etc.
A Comprehensive analysis of alternatives is one of the key aspects of capital Investment
proposals. There is a need for extensive scan of the projects because the investment is
huge and once invested it cannot be reversed.
The capital investment decisions require special attention to fulfill the following Issues:
1. Growth: The effect of investment decisions extend into the future and
have to be endured for a longer period and play a vital role in the growth of an
organization.
2. Risk: Adoption of an investment increases average gain, but leads to the
frequent fluctuations in its earnings, the risk of the company increases.
3. Funding: It is necessary for the company to plan its investment
programmes carefully for making the advance arrangement for the procurement of
funds internally or externally.
4. Irreversibility: Investment decisions are generally irreversible, so while
planning investment decisions, maximum features should be of reversible nature.
5. Complexity: The investment decisions are amongst the most difficult
decisions, therefore these are known as complex decisions.

Financial Analysis
IOCL pipeline division perceives the need for undertaking a pipeline project which could
be for laying a new pipeline, expanding an existing one or scouting for new areas where
pipelines can be introduces.
Draft Design Prepared
A draft design or step by step procedure is developed for the project according to which
the project needs to be carried on.
Cost Estimate
Costs are estimated by the technical departments (Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and
Telecommunication & Instrumentation) according to the individual expenditure that
would be incurred in the project. The estimated costs are passed on to the financial
department for cost analysis.
Cost Analysis
Finance department calculates the capital expenses and operating expenses based on the
cost estimates provided by the technical departments.
DFR Preparation
A detailed feasibility report (DFR) is prepared by the systems department which deals
with the systems configuration, cost, viability, implementation methodology, and other
details in respect of laying the pipeline.
The DFR is analyzed by the finance department to determine the financial feasibility of
the project. The DFR is then forwarded to the board of directors for their approval. Theboard analyses the project not only from the financial point of view but also considers the
strategic and other implications. If the project is not approved by the board, it may be
rejected or improvements may be made in the project.
Funding at Corporate Level
44
7/30/2019 Financial Analysis on Iocl

Financial Analysis
Once the project is approved funds are allocated to different departments for the
expenses.
Purchase Requisition
Technical departments prepare their individual purchase requisitions which detail out
their requirements of various materials and parts for the purpose of the project. These
requisitions are sent to the finance department which checks them for the quoted prices
and their sources.
Tendering
Tenders are invited by the Contract department to fulfill the purchase requisitions of the
technical department. Tenders would have all the specifications for the materials needed.
Quotations are received in two bids techno commercial bid and price bid.
Techno Commercial evaluation of bids

Monthly financial and technical reports regarding the progress of the project are prepared
through Management Information System (MIS).
Project Insurance
Insurance needs to be taken for the implementation stage of the project. Insurance is also
awarded to companies through tenders. Storage cum Errection Insurance (SCE) is taken
at the implementation stage and it is taken till the date project gets commissioned. Once
the project gets commissioned the SCE Insurance needs to be converted into Fire and
Burglary Insurance
Commissioning & Capitalization of project
The final stage of a pipeline project at IOCL is commissioning and capitalization ofproject. From this stage onwards project starts generating revenue.

COST ANALYSIS
After selecting the project design the engineering department of IOCL estimates the costs
of the project for Cost analysis. IOCL has four engineering departments which estimate
the costs and these are:
Civil
Mechanical
Electrical
Telecommunication & Instrumentation
Civil Department
This department handles the construction of all the civil structures required for the
project. The civil structures are erected at stations to provide shelter to men and
machinery. Construction of buildings/ facilities to house control panels, MCC panels,
batteries, generator sets, compressors etc also comes under the purview of civil
department. They also take care of survey of land and material requirements for thepipelines
Major Civil Department Costs

Financial Analysis
The cost includes the cost of detailed mainline route survey, cadastral survey, sub-soil
investigations & field engineering etc.
Land Acquisition, ROW & Crop Compensation
Land is required for constructing metering station, T-point, terminal station and SV
station etc and is acquired on a permanent basis. However for laying the pipelines only
the right to use the land is needed and the compensation provided for such right is Right
of Way compensation (ROW). Crop compensation is provided to cultivated lands.
Mainline pipes & Materials
Coated pipes are used for the transfer of Crude/Product so as to prevent corrosion of
pipeline and also to take care that the crude/product being transferred does not get
adulterated. The cost of materials required, such as casing pipe, coating and wrapping
materials, valves etc. is considered under this head.
Mainline Construction
Mainline construction consists of the costs incurred in laying the pipeline. The Land
enroute the proposed pipeline is not similar at all places and therefore laying costs also
differ.
Station Construction
The costs incurred in constructing stations at the originating place, destination and
terminal stations are placed under this head.

COMMON BASIS OF ESTIMATION
The costs estimated by the engineering department are developed on the basis of some
common assumptions, criteria & techniques. These assumptions are common to all the
projects in IOCL, Pipelines Division.
Basic Price
The basic price of each product/ service is estimated on the basis of work orders,
Purchase requisitions, Letter of Intent and Budgetary quotations/price lists of previous
projects.
Escalation
The price for different materials and services are estimated on the basis of historical data
(not more than 3 years) available from work orders and purchase requisition and
therefore the time gap needs to be taken into consideration. The prices need to be
escalated to arrive at an appropriate estimate.
Usually the basic rates are escalated at 5% rate annually.
Contingencies
Sometimes some discrepancies occur in the prices due to occurrence of unforeseen events
after the estimation of costs and before the implementation of the project. These
discrepancies are taken into consideration by allowing a provision for contingencies onall cost estimates.
Interest & Repayments
Project financing through debt is done only if the project cost is more than Rs.100 Crores
and they are considered at the rate at which national banks provide loans.

Financial Analysis
Design Change Allowance
Sometimes the design of the project needs to be changed due to occurrence of some
unforeseen events and it may cause differences in the costs at a later stage. To tackle this
issue a design change allowance is provided in the cost estimates.
Service Tax
There are mainly three kinds of works or jobs under each project:
1. Supplies are concerned with procuring tangible items i.e. receiving
materials like pipes, valves, engines etc .No service tax is charged on supplies.
2. Services are intangible in nature like installation, consultancy for
commissioning etc. Service tax is charged at the rate of 12.36% on services
offered.
3. Composites are combination of supply job and service job (in which
supplies and service cannot be separated). A service tax of 12.36% on 33% of
Composite costs is charged as per the Income tax provision.

CAPITAL COST (CAPEX)
CAPITAL COSTS
Capital costs (Capex) are expenditures creating future benefits. Capital cost is incurred
when a business spends money either to buy fixed assets or to add to the value of an
existing fixed asset with a useful life that extends beyond the taxable year. For tax
purposes, capital costs are costs that cannot be deducted in the year in which they are
paid or incurred, and must be capitalized. The general rule is that if the property acquired
has a useful life longer than the taxable year, the cost must be capitalized. The capital
costs are then amortized or depreciated over the life of the asset in question.
Included in capex are amounts spent on:
1. acquiring fixed assets
2. fixing problems with an asset that existed prior to acquisition
3. preparing an asset to be used in business
4. legal costs of establishing or maintaining one's right of ownership in a piece of
property
5. restoring property or adapting it to a new or different use
6. starting a new business
The capital cost of the R-LNG pipeline system from Kanpur to Lucknow is estimated to
be Rs.297.26 crore, including a foreign exchange component of Rs.90.7 crore, at August
2007 price level. There are 10 heads under which the capital costs are considered in
IOCL.

Financial Analysis
Cost estimation has been prepared using the following basis of estimation:
Budgetary quotations/price lists.
Cost actually incurred in the past with appropriate escalation as applicable.
Outline design and incomplete specifications to establish physical requirements,
and in- house cost data. Experience of virtually identical projects elsewhere to establish physical
requirements and the cost.
Experience of slightly different projects, adjusted approximately to establish
physical requirements.
Use of an empirically tested rule of thumb to establish the physical requirements
and in-house cost/data escalated to present value.
Experience of similar projects in value/terms, adjusted for price difference by past
experience and escalation data.
No provision has been made for price escalation during the period of execution of
the project as far as possible; the estimates have been prepared on the basis of the
costs prevalent in august 2007
Provision for contingencies to the tune of 5% has been made in the cost estimates
Impact of the prevailing taxes and duties has been taken into account while
preparing the estimates.

OPERATING COST (OPEX)
OPERATING COST
Operating costs are the recurring expenses which are related to the operations of a
business, or the operation of a device, component, piece of equipment or facility. The
operating cost includes the cost of consumables like utilities (power & water), salaries &
wages, administrative overheads, repair & maintenance etc.
Features of Operating Costs
Operating Costs are calculated on per annum basis.
Operating costs are bifurcated into Fixed Operating Costs and Variable Operating
Costs
Another feature of operating costs is that it can be negative. Projects which are
taken up for improvement of an existing project does not incur any fixed
operating costs and their variable operating costs are negative due to the
improvement in the project.
The total operating cost for the pipeline system in Kanpur-Lucknow R-LNG project, for a
capacity of 6.72 MMSCMD, is estimated to cost Rs.5.06 crore per year, based on August
2007 price level.

Major Heads under Operating Cost
1. Utilities
Power
Water
Power: Power is required for auxiliaries & control etc. and for illuminations at all the
stations. Requirement of power is planned to be drawn from GAILs Kanpur station
Lucknow refinery. However, for continuous availability of power for controls and
accessories stand-by generating unit of adequate capacity has been considered.
Water: While there is no major requirement of water for operation of the pipeline
system, the proposed stations will be equipped with fire fighting tank of adequate
capacity. Water for the fie-fighting tanks will be drawn from the nearest public utility
system in addition to boring of tube wells to meet the requirement.
2. Salaries and Wages
Manpower
Manpower: The manpower requirement assessed to be around 20 has been worked out
on the basis of prevailing norms and practices and on a preliminary assessment of work
allocation. It is considered that LPMs would be outsourced for this proposal. However,
these issues may have to be re-examined at the commissioning stage.
3. Repair and Maintenance
Repair and maintenance of the mainline has been considered @1% of the investment in
the mainline. Similarly, repair and maintenance of the stations has been considered @2%
of the investment on stations, telecommunications and telesupervisory system.
4. Chemicals
Chemicals are used to avoid corrosion of pipelines and also to avoid chemical reactions
in the product/crude.

STATEMENT OF OPTIMIZATION
There are alternative ways of transforming an idea into a concrete project. These ideas
may differ in one or more aspects. Statement of optimization is prepared to find out the
best way.
In a pipeline project while constructing a pipeline IOCL has more than one options based
on the width of the pipe, technology used and route of the pipeline. The Statement of
Optimization is prepared to analyze the financial optimality of these options and select
the best available option.
In the Spurline R-LNG Kanpur to Lucknow only one option (30OD x 0.344/0.375

REVENUE ANALYSIS
For a company, revenue is income that a company receives from its normal business
activities, usually from the sale ofgoods and services to customers. Some companies also
receive revenue from interest,dividends orroyalties paid to them by other companies. It
also includes all net sales, exchange ofassets etc. Savings made by a company is also
revenue for it. Revenue analysis as discussed earlier is estimating the revenues that would
be earned from the project, once it is implemented.
In IOCL, depending upon the pipeline project features, any one of the following method
is used for estimating revenue.
Based on Corporate Savings: When a new pipeline is to be layed between
stations where there is no existing way of transporting Crude/Product, revenues
are calculated by the Project Appraisal Group on the basis of corporate savings.
Corporate savings is the overall savings made by IOCL by implementing a
project. Corporate savings is then divided between the various divisions of IOCL
(Refinery, Pipeline, Marketing and R&D) as their revenue.
Based on NRF (Notional Railway Freight): If the Crude/Product was not
transported through pipeline, it should have been transported through roadways or
railways. Revenue in this method is the amount saved by transporting the
product/crude through pipeline, rather than transporting it through
railways/roadways. Normally the revenue is considered to be 75 % of NRF.
Based on IRR: In some cases, the IRR of the project is estimated first and based
on that the expected revenue for arriving at that IRR is calculated.

Financial Analysis
In Kanpur-Lucknow R-LNG pipeline, the primary objective of making the IRR was to
determine the tariff to be charged for transportation of gas, as this is the first gas pipeline
being setup by IOCL.
Thus, usually where we consider revenue either as notional earnings (i.e.75 % of railway
freight) or corporate savings, here IRR was calculated in a backward trend for
determining the tariff for transporting per unit of gas. Gails tariff was also studied. And
in order to arrive at the maximum tariff that can be charged IRR was considered at a
predecided rate (minimum hurdle rate ceiling of 12%). For example if we fix the IRR at
12%, the tariff/Revenue per unit works out to Rs. 0.002053. The per unit tariff is then
multiplied with throughput and the length of the pipeline to arrive at the total revenue.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The primary objective of any project is to earn reasonable returns for the investment
made and therefore financial feasibility of a project must be examined while selecting the
project for implementation. Once the total cost of the project has been estimated, the
means of financing the project has to be looked upon. Financial analysis helps in
assessment of the effectiveness with which funds are employed in a project. The working
capital needs of the project are also taken into consideration.
The capital cost of this project has been considered to be financed through internal
resources. The requirement of working capital is also met through internal resources. For
the purpose of financial analysis, Debt: Equity ratio of 1:1 has been considered with
interest@ 8.55% per annum and repayment in eight equal installments with one years
moratorium.
Financial analysis for the project has been considered taking into following consideration.
Project life has been considered for 15 years of operation as per corporate
guidelines.
The analysis has been carried out at constant prices i.e. no escalation has been
provided either in costs or in the return.
After 15 years the salvage value of the system has been considered as 30 % of the
initial cost (Without financing cost) except land cost. This has been taken as cash
flow.

PHASING
A project is rarely done in one go, it is divided into different stages/phases. These phases
do not start at the same time and their payment timings also differ. Phasing helps to
determine the pattern and quantum of cash outflows each year (in case the project takes
more than one year).
According to the DFR (Detailed Feasibility Report) of Kanpur-Lucknow R-LNG
pipeline, the proposed pipeline project is expected to be completed in a period of about
18 months after its investment approval.
Year-wise phasing of expenditure is as follows.
(Figs. In Rs. Crore)

DEPRECIATION
Depreciation an expense recorded to allocate a tangible asset's cost over its useful life. It
provides for the wear and tear that occurs to an asset during its lifetime. As depreciation
is a non-cash expense, it increases free cash flow while decreasing reported earnings.
Depreciation is used to try to match the expense of an asset to the income that the asset
helps the company earn. Provision for depreciation on an asset is used for replacing the
asset once its lifetime is over.
The two basic methods of calculating depreciation are:
Written down value method
Straight line depreciation method
Depreciation is considered while doing project analysis to arrive at the correct estimate of
profits and to get the actual value of the asset. It helps in reducing the profits and saving
taxes. Written down value method of depreciation is usually used because the assets do
not depreciate at the same rate every year.
In the Kanpur-Lucknow R-LNG pipeline, land & ROW (Right of Way) and the PMC on
it has not been included for depreciation. Depreciation has to be computed in Written
down value method for arriving at the regular profits, whereas Straight line method is
used for Income tax purposes.

MAT CALCULATION
First of all, the book profits are calculated using the formula
Book profit= Taxable profit + depreciation previously deducted - actual
depreciation as per Income tax Act
MAT loss is added to the book profit to obtain the adjusted book profit on which the
MAT is calculated @ 11.33% (MAT rate).
Capital Gains Tax
If any Capital Asset is sold or transferred, the profits arising out of such sale are taxable
as capital gains in the year in which the transfer takes place. Capital asset gains are of
two types
Long term capital gains: Gains on assets held for more than 36 months before
they are sold or transferred. In case of shares, debentures and mutual fund units
the period of holding required is only 12 months. Rate of tax applied on long term
capital gains is 22.66% (20% tax + 10% surcharge + 3% education cess).
Short term capital gains: Gains on assets held for less than 36 months are included
in this category. Rate of tax applied on short term capital gains is 15%.
CALCULATION OF CAPITAL GAIN
Net capital gain is calculated with help of formula:
Net Capital Gain = Gross Gain (Cost of Acquisition + Indexation Cost) Expenses onSale
Indexation Cost = Original value X Present year Index
Capital gain is calculated at 22.66% of Net Capital Gain.
Base year/year of Acquisition Index
80
7/30/2019 Financial Analysis on Iocl
81/97
Financial Analysis
As per the IOCL guidelines, Capital gains tax is calculated on the terminal value of the
project at the end of 15 years, which is estimated to be 30% of Capex + Cost of land.
Interest & Repayment
In project finance, financing of projects is done through both debt and equity. The interest
on the amount financed through debt and the repayment thereof is considered under this
heading. Interest & repayment increases the cash outflows as we are paying the amount.
It helps in reducing the taxes and increasing the profits from the project.
The following points are considered while estimating interest and repayments in IOCL
Interest & repayments are not applicable on projects where Capex less than 100
Crores.
If the projects Capex is more than 100 Crores, then debt and equity is considered
in 1:1 ratio.
Interest rate is considered as per the latest bank lending rates, which is annually
revised by Project Appraisal Group.
Repayments are made on reducing interest rate method.

INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN (IRR)
IRR is usually the rate of return that a project earns. Therefore, it is called internal rate of
return. IRR is also known as time adjusted rate of return, marginal efficiency of capital,
marginal productivity of capital and yield on investment.
IRR is the discount rate at which present value of cash inflow is equal to the present
value of cash outflows. In other words, it is the rate at which NPV of the project is zero.
IRR is preferred by IOCL over other selection methods because of the following reasons:
IRR consider time value of money (Cash flows are converted into present value).
It takes into account all cash inflows and outflows occurring over the entire
lifetime of the project.
IRR is consistent with the overall objective of maximizing the net worth.
EVALUATING A PROJECT ON THE BASIS OF IRR METHOD:
To evaluate a project through IRR method, IRR of the project is compared with the pre-
determined hurdle rate. Hurdle rate is the minimum rate of return that must be met for a
company to undertake a project. It is calculated with the help of Capital Asset Pricing
Model (CAPM).
If IRR exceeds the required rate hurdle rate, the project would be accepted and if IRR is
lower than required hurdle rate, the project would be rejected.
In Kanpur-Lucknow R-LNG, the IRR was kept fixed at 12%, which was also the hurdle
rate of the project. The revenues for the project were estimated on the basis of the
required IRR i.e. 12%.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
Sensitivity analysis is a procedure to determine the sensitivity of the outcomes of an
alternative, to changes in its parameters. If a small change in a parameter results in
relatively large changes in the outcomes, the outcomes are said to be sensitive to that
parameter. This may mean that the parameter has to be determined very accurately or that
the alternative has to be redesigned for low sensitivity.
The major parameters on which changes are made to study the revenue/IRR sensitivity
are as follows:
Capex (Capital costs)
Opex (Operating Costs)
Throughput
Freight charges
In Kanpur-Lucknow R-LNG project, IRR is fixed at 12% and sensitivity analysis is used
for calculating transmission charges with respect to changes in IRR. In this project
sensitivity analysis has been carried out for the following cases.
Base Case (12% IRR)
Sensitivity case with throughput same as base case & 10% IRR
Sensitivity case considering non-Availability of NFL throughput for Ist 3 years &
12% IRR
Sensitivity case considering non-Availability of NFL throughput for Ist 3 years &
10% IRR
Sensitivity case considering without NFL throughput & 12% IRR

KEY LEARNINGS FROM THE PROJECT
Each and every activity in life helps us to learn new things. This project too was a perfect
learning experience and has helped me to learn a lot.
Corporate aspect: This project has provided me with good exposure to actual
working environment of an organization.
Indian Oil scenario: Indian Oil is one of the Navratna PSUs of India and also a
leading company in downstream operations in Oil business. Working in the
finance Division (Pipelines) has helped me to know how the finance department
works in actual scenario.
Financing of Projects: Project finance is a new & emerging concept for
financing the projects. This project has helped me to understand the nitty- gritties
& application of project finance which cannot be understood by reading books.
Procedure of evaluating projects: Through this project, I have learned the
various aspects of evaluating the project, financial tools for assessing the viability
of project, cost estimation and how depreciation, taxes etc impact the evaluation

LIMITATIONS
Each and every project or research carried out has some limitations, be it time constraints
or any other such issues that invariably, plague the result.
There was a constraint with regard to time allocation for the research study i.e. for
a period of two months.
Data collection was strictly confined to secondary source thus is subject to slight
variation than what the study includes in reality.
There were various technical terms used in the project, which were difficult to
understand.
