Mined metal production for the year was 880,000 tonnes,
marginally higher than the previous year. Production in H2 was
lower than what we had planned initially due to slower than
expected ramp up of underground mining projects and changes in
mining sequence, wherein preference was given to primary mine
development.
Integrated production of refined metal during the year was
significantly higher due to operational efficiencies and higher
availability of our smelters. Full year integrated production of
refined zinc, lead and silver were higher by 13%, 10% and 4%
respectively.

Refined zinc production at Skorpion was higher than Q3 by 10,000
tonnes consequent to ramp up after an unplanned shutdown in Q3
FY2014. However, this was offset by lower mined metal production at
BMM and Lisheen due to lower ore grades. Total production in Q4
remained in line with Q3, and the full year production was lower by
15%. This was lower on account of disruptions in production caused
by accidents at Lisheen and BMM in Q1 FY2014 and the unplanned
shutdown at Skorpion in Q3.

Average gross production for FY2014 was 218,651 barrels of oil
equivalent per day (boepd), 6% higher than the previous year.
During the year, the Rajasthan block achieved a landmark oil
production of 200 million barrels, and a 200,000 boepd production
milestone in March 2014.
In Q4 FY2014, average gross operated production and working
interest production were 11% and 13% higher at 224,429 boepd and
142,796 boepd, respectively, driven primarily by the production
ramp-up at Rajasthan. In Rajasthan, infill drilling continues
across all major fields and has driven a 13% increase in the
production rate to 190,881 boepd. Development Area (DA1), which
includes the Mangala and Aishwariya fields produced a gross average
of 162,245 boepd and DA2, which includes the Bhagyam field produced
a gross average of 28,636 boepd.
In Q4 FY2014, production at Cambay was 50% higher yoy at 9,323
boepd, due to the infill drilling campaign that was completed in
FY2013. Production at Ravva was lower in Q4 FY2014 at 24,225 boepd
though recovery rates continue to be over 47%.

In Karnataka, we resumed mining on December 28, 2013 and
optimized our approved annual capacity of 2.29mtpa, which resulted
in a production of 1.5mt this year. However, only 27 kt was sold
during the year.
At Goa, we participated in e-auctions of inventory and sold 0.3
million tonnes during the quarter but these were not accounted for
as sales since the dispatches did not take place during the
quarter. These dispatches have commenced in April.
Regarding mining in Goa, the Expert committee appointed by the
Supreme Court submitted its second interim report to the Court on
24 March 2014. The Expert committee, in its report, recommended
that 27.5mtpa was a sustainable extraction level in the state, but
suggested that the ideal permissible limit be 20mtpa until a
scientific study is completed within 12 months. The decision of the
Supreme Court is awaited on this matter.

The Tuticorin copper smelter performed well at 98% utilisation
in Q4. The full year production was 17% lower due to the temporary
closure in Q1 FY2014. As announced earlier, we are scheduled to
have a maintenance shutdown of this smelter for approximately 22
days in Q1.
The company received the final regulatory approval for the
second unit of the 2x80MW power plant in March 2014. Subsequently,
we commissioned and capitalized this unit and generated 25 million
units.
As announced earlier, production at our Australian mine remained
suspended due to a mud rush at one of the stopes in January 2014.
We are working with Work Place Standards Authorities at Tasmania to
resume operations.

Mined metal production was 19% lower in Q4, as compared with the
corresponding prior period, due to lower ore production at Konkola
and Nchanga underground mines. Production at Konkola was affected
by unscheduled stoppages at shaft 1 & 4, with the mid-shaft
level of shaft 4 resuming operations during the quarter. Shaft 1
became operational in the first week of April. Mined metal
production also includes TLP primary copper production of 13,400
tonnes which was 6% lower due to lower grades.
For the full year, mined metal production was lower primarily
due to suspension of mining operations at COP F&D since January
2013.
We are focussed on increasing volumes at the Konkola mine, with
recent progress made towards augmenting talent in the underground
mining team, and implementing productivity improvement measures.
Custom volumes remained constrained by blending challenges and
underlying commercial issues of recovery of VAT credit from the
Zambian government.

The Lanjigarh alumina refinery operated at 91% of its rated
capacity and produced 227,000 tonnes in Q4 FY2014, 25% higher than
Q3. Full year production was 524,000 tonnes, after restarting the
refinery in July 2013. This resulted in a steady increase of
alumina feed from Lanjigarh to our smelters, contributing to 28% of
the smelters' alumina requirements in FY2014 and 49% in Q4.
In Q4, production at Jharsuguda Plant I and Korba Plant II
smelters continued to remain stable and both these plants operated
above their rated capacities.
We commenced the Korba-III 325kt smelter with the first metal
tapping in Q4. We produced around
900 tonnes of aluminium with power sourced from the BALCO 270MW
power plant. We expect to ramp up significantly during FY2015
consequent to the commissioning of the 1,200MW power plant, which
expects to receive regulatory approvals in Q1 FY2015.

Power sales were 20% lower in Q4 as compared to corresponding
prior period, primarily due to lower sales at our Jharsuguda
2,400MW and BALCO 270MW power plants on account of weak market
demand and evacuation constraints. The Jharsuguda 2,400MW operated
at a plant load factor of 35%.
The boiler light up of the first 660MW unit of the 1,980MW
Talwandi Sabo power plant was achieved in Q3 and synchronization
was completed subsequently. Coal logistics were established in Q4
and we expect to commence trial runs in Q1 FY2015.

Disclaimer
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" - that
is, statements related to future, not past, events. In this
context, forward-looking statements often address our expected
future business and financial performance, and often contain words
such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes,"
"seeks," "should" or "will." Forward-looking statements by their
nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain.
For us, uncertainties arise from the behaviour of financial and
metals markets including the London Metal Exchange, fluctuations in
interest and or exchange rates and metal prices; from future
integration of acquired businesses; and from numerous other matters
of national, regional and global scale, including those of a
political, economic, business, competitive or regulatory nature.
These uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be
materially different that those expressed in our forward-looking
statements. We do not undertake to update our forward-looking
statements.
