With nearly 1.2 billion population, India requires a robust, modernized

agriculture sector to ensure the food security to its population. In order to
meet the food grain requirements, the agricultural productivity and growth
need to be sustained and further improved. It is imperative to manage critical
inputs and resources like cultivable land, irrigation, high yielding seeds and
fertilizers for a higher food production. Also, balanced use of fertilizers, based
on the soil conditions will certainly improve the agricultural productivity in
India. With the above objectives, this publication of Department of Fertilizers
is published every year for the benefit of the Fertilizer Industry. In order to
make useful information available to the public, policy makers and researchers,
the Department of Fertilizers is publishing Indian Fertilizer Scenario-2010
relating to fertilizer sector.
It has been constant endeavour to make the publication user-friendly and

to improve the coverage and content of the yearbook so that fuller perspective
of the information in the field of fertilizer of the year under reference is duly
presented.
I extend my best wishes to this publication.

Message
The growth of Indian economy in the past underlines the importance of

improving the agriculture productivity to meet the growing demand for food
to provide food security to the entire nation. The fertilizer sector outlook is fast
changing in the international arena. Indian fertilizer industry needs to catch
up with the growth in terms of technology and fertilizer production. Fertilizer
statistics of the Department of Fertilizers published every year for the benefit
of fertilizer industry. In tune with established standards, it will be an important
tool for the policy makers and planners in the process of ensuring adequate
availability of fertilizers and thereby providing food security.
It is my earnest hope that the publication "Indian Fertilizer Scenario-

2010" brought out by the Department of Fertilizers will be an endeavour in this
direction. The fertilizer statistics, needless to say, it is an outcome of concerted
efforts of officers and staff of Department of Fertilizers.
I hope this publication will be utilized by the policy makers and planners for
betterment and development of fertilizer sector.

foreword
Department of Fertilizers is mandated to ensuring smooth and timely

availability of fertilizers in adequate quantity to the farmers in all parts of
the country. Government has implemented Nutrient Based Subsidy (NBS) for
decontrolled Phosphatic & Potassic fertilizer with effect from 1st April, 2010 with
a view to promote balanced fertilization. Efforts were also made to plan and
make available chemical fertilizers in time and in sufficient quantity.
At present, there is a need for more foodgrains production in the country

which could only be achieved through proper policy initiatives and planning based
on reliable database. The publication, namely, "Indian Fertilizer Scenario-2010"
has been prepared with the objective of making useful information available for
better planning and policy making in the fertilizer sector.
I hope the publication will be useful for all stakeholders interested in this
sector. Suggestions to improve the content and quality of this publication will be
appreciated.

1. Notification on NEW PRICING SCHEME (NPS) III FOR UREA

No. 12012/3/2006-FPP
Government of India
Ministry of Chemicals & Fertilizers
(Department of Fertilizers)
Shastri Bhawan, New Delhi.

8th March 2007
To,
The Executive Director,
Fertilizer Industry Coordination Committee,
8th Floor, Sewa Bhawan,
R. K. Puram,
New Delhi.
Subject : Policy for Stage-III of New Pricing Scheme for urea manufacturing units.
Sir,
I am directed to refer to this Departments letter No. 12019/5/98-FPP dated 30th January 2003 and No.
12019/19/2003-FPP, Dated 29-7-2003 vide which the salient features of Stage- I & II of New Pricing Scheme (NPS)
introduced w.e.f 1.4.2003, were communicated. It was, inter alia, communicated that the modalities of Stage-III
would be decided by the Department of Fertilizers (DOF) after review of the implementation of Stage-I and Stage-
II. It has been decided to implement Stage-III of NPS with certain modifications as contained in the succeeding
paragraphs.
(A) Duration.
2. The Policy for NPS Stage-III will be effective from 1.10.2006 to 31.3.2010. Stage-II Policy has been extended
upto 30.9.2006. The policy for incentivizing additional production of urea during Stage-III of NPS will be
applicable from the date of notification and till then the additional production of urea by units beyond 100%
of their capacity will be governed by the existing policy of sharing of the net gain between the Government
and the unit in the ratio of 65:35.
(B) Grouping of urea units

3. During Stage-III of NPS, the following measures will be taken to calculate concession rates of urea units :-
i) Existing six group classification will continue as given in Annexure. I-A.
ii) Group averaging will be done after updation of all costs upto 31.3.2003.
iii) Capacity utilization levels of 93% for pre-92 Naphtha and FO/LSHS based plants and 98% for pre-92
gas, post-92 gas, post-92 Naphtha and mixed energy based plants will be considered for calculating the
base concession rates of urea units as on 31.3.2003.
iv) Transportation cost of gas will be computed and paid separately.
v) The updated notional concession rates of all urea units as on 1.4.2003 so determined on the pattern
followed during Stage-I of NPS will form the basis to calculate the concession rate payable to each urea
unit during Stage-III of NPS commencing from 1.10.2006. No outlier benefit will be admissible to any
unit in Stage-III of NPS.
vi) On the base concession rate so determined for each unit, only escalation and de- escalation on com-
ponents of variable cost on actual basis subject to pre-set energy norms given in Stage III.
vii) A deduction of Rs 50/MT from the concession rates of pre-92 Naphtha and FO/LSHS based and Rs. 75/
MT from the other units for the reduced capital related charges (CRC) will be made.
viii) The respective pre-set energy consumption norm of each urea unit during Stage-II of NPS or the actual
energy consumption achieved during the year 2002-03, whichever is lower, will be recognized as the
norm for Stage-III of NPS.
ix) Saving on energy over the pre-set norms will be paid as per the basic rate of the weighted average of
feed/fuel used during Stage-III of NPS.
(C) Resumption of urea production by units under shutdown.

4. Resumption of production by urea units currently not in production, viz, RCF-Trombay-V, FACT-Cochin
and Duncans Industries Limited (DIL)-Kanpur is allowed based on natural gas/LNG/CBM/Coal gas. Upon
resumption, the base concession rate of these units will be the Stage-III concession rate of the group to which
they belonged, or their own concession rate updated till 31.3.2003 for all costs and thereafter adjusted for the
feedstock changeover, whichever is lower.
(D) Conversion of non-gas based units to NG/LNG.

6. i) All functional Naphtha and FO/LSHS based units should get converted within a period of 3 years (of these,
Shriram Fertilizers & Chemicals Ltd (SFC) Kota is expected to convert by the end of the current financial year).
On the expiry of the aforementioned period, the Government will not subsidize the high cost urea produced
by the non-gas based urea units and rate of concession of such units will be restricted to the lower of the
prevalent import parity price (IPP) or their own rate. Units not able to tie up gas will have to explore alternative
feedstock like Coal Bed Methane(CBM) and coal gas.
II) In order to provide incentives for conversion to gas, since there is no recognition of investment made by units
for conversion, there will be no mopping up of energy efficiency for a fixed period of 5 years for Naphtha
based as well as for FO/LSHS based units. Capital subsidy will be considered for FO/LSHS based units for
which DOF will notify a separate scheme in consultation with Department of Expenditure(DOE) Ministry of
Finance.
iii) For conversion of the non-gas based Urea Plants to Natural Gas (NG) / Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), a Committee
headed by Petroleum Secretary, comprising of Secretaries of Planning Commission, Department of Fertilizers
and Department of Expenditure has been constituted for facilitating the connectivity and supply of gas to
non-gas based units converting to gas and to develop appropriate mechanism for fixing the price of gas in a
transparent manner.
(E) Incentives for additional urea production.

6. The following measures are decided to be implemented to incentivise additional Urea production in the
country:-
i) No permission will be required from the Government for production beyond 100% of re-assessed urea
capacity of the unit.
ii) All production between 100% and 110% of the existing reassessed capacity, if so required by the gov-
ernment as per the approved production plan will be incentivized on the existing net gain sharing
formula between the Government and the unit in the ratio of 65:35 respectively with the proviso that
the total amount paid to the units, after including the component of variable cost will be capped at the
units own concession rate.
iii) Units increasing production beyond 110% may be compensated at their concession rate, subject to the
overall cap of IPP.
iv) While procuring additional urea beyond 100% of the reassessed capacity of urea units, a merit order
system of procurement will be followed. In other words, the units which supply urea at the least cost
would be given preference in procurement.
v) The cost of feedstock/fuel allowed will be in the ratio of gas/LNG/Naphtha etc. with reference to actual
ratio of consumption of annual actual production of urea up to that portion of the incremental produc-
tion of urea required by the Government for sale to agriculturalists. Energy/inputs for non-agricultural
sale/exports and surplus ammonia shall be allocated on costlier feed/fuel basis.
vi) To the extent that the Government does not require any quantities of additional production for direct
sale to agriculturalists, the concerned units would be free to dispose of the remaining quantities by
way of exports, sale to complex manufacturers etc. without seeking prior permission of DOF.
vii) Government will not subsidize the additional production, if not required by it for agricultural
consumption.
(F) Distribution and Movement Issues

7. The following measures have been decided to be implemented for movement of Urea to District level and
below :-
(i) The Government will continue to retain the authority to direct movement of urea stock up to 50% of
production depending upon the exigencies of the situation.
(ii) States would be required to allocate the entire quantity of planned urea arrivals i.e., both regulated
and de-regulated urea in a District-wise, month-wise and supplier wise format.
(iii) Each unit will maintain a district level stock point in the districts where it is required to supply urea.
These district level stock points will be the primary Godowns.
(iv) Subsidy to individual units will be reimbursed based on conformity to planned movement up to district
level for both controlled and de-controlled urea. The monitoring of the movement and distribution of
urea throughout the country will be done by an On-line computer-based monitoring system. The time
limit of existing payment system i.e., 45 days will be adhered to. It will be ensured that no certification
by State Governments is required for release of subsidy to urea Units. Subsidy will be paid only when
the urea reaches the district.
(v) The Department will operate a buffer stock through the State Institutional Agencies /Fertilizer Compa-
nies in States up to a limit of 5% of their seasonal requirement.
(vi) The Department will work through the agricultural department of the states to realize the objective of
adequate and timely availability of urea at the Block level.
8. The freight reimbursement to urea units under NPS-III will be done as follows:-
(i) Primary Freight will be reimbursed on the basis of actual leads for rail movement;
(ii) Reimbursement of railway freight will be as per the actual expenditure;
(iii) For the road component of the primary freight, road leads will be as per actual distance to the primary
godown and per tonne Km. rates will be escalated by the composite road transport index { weighted
average of the Wholesale Price Indices (WPIs) of HSD oil, Motor Tyres, Truck Chassis and All Commodi-
ties};
(iv) One time enhancement of 33% will be granted on the road component of primary freight to offset the
impact of Supreme Court directed maximum truckload limit of 9 MT on road vehicles;
(v) Tariff Commission will be requested to fix average leads and per tonne km base rates for road trans-
portation in the case of secondary movement. These rates will be escalated by WPI (composite road
transport index) every year;
(vi) Pending finalization of leads and rates by the Tariff Commission, secondary freight which was frozen at
2002-03 rates during Stages I & II of NPS will be escalated by the increase/decrease in WPI (composite
index) since 2002-03;
(vii) The Freight computed and paid as per the policy shall not exceed the actual freight expenditure in-
curred by the units.
(viii) The existing scheme for special freight subsidy will continue for supplies to the North Eastern States
and Jammu & Kashmir.
(G) Policy in respect of high cost units (producing at higher than IPP):
9. In order to disincentivise high cost production of 8 Naphtha and FO/LSHS based units whose cost of production
is higher than the prevalent IPP, to facilitate their early conversion to gas, these units are allowed to produce
100% of capacity should they adhere to an agreed timetable for conversion to gas and tie up of gas/LNG/
CBM/Coal gas. If they do not, they will be given only 75% of the difference between the rate of concession
and variable cost component (i.e., 75% of the balance fixed costs beyond 93% of capacity utilization) in the 1st
year (1.4.2007) and 50% of the fixed cost beyond 93% capacity utilization from 2nd year (1.4.2008) onwards.
(H) Policy for import of urea.

10. The existing system of import of urea through designated State Trading Enterprises (STEs) i.e. Minerals &
Metals Trading Corporation (MMTC), State Trading Corporation (STC) and Indian Potash Limited (IPL) will
continue.
(I) Policy for Joint Ventures Abroad
11. To encourage setting up of JV fertilizer plants abroad in countries where gas is available in abundance and
is much cheaper, the JVs for production of urea will be set up abroad subject to the condition that the
Government will enter into / encourage long term buy back arrangements with JVs abroad depending upon
merits. Accordingly, suitable mechanisms be evolved for effectively securing long term fertilizer related
supplies, including through investments and joint ventures abroad.
(J) Other Measures

12. Cost of bags
The cost of bags, which was frozen during Stage-I & II of NPS, will now be allowed based on moving weighted
average cost of bags to compensate for the rise in prices over the last three years. For the year 2006-07, the
weighted average of the cost of bags for each unit will be for the three years beginning 2002-03 and accordingly
thereafter.
13. Taxes on inputs
For Stage-III, it is decided that sales tax on inputs and other taxes recognized under RPS will be paid on
actual basis. Where Value Added Tax (VAT) has been introduced, such of the above taxes as are subsumed in it will
be recognized to the extent they are non-vattable.
In case of any issue/dispute relating to interpretation of the policy, the decision of Department of Fertilizers
shall be final. The above provisions will remain in force during the Stage-III of NPS or until further orders, whichever
is earlier.

Accordingly, the weighted C&F price of various raw-materials/intermediates/finished fertilizers (landed at
Indian ports in the relevant month) for computation of monthly concession will be adopted by excluding
the outlier(s). Prices, which are less than 5% or US $ 30 per MT of the industry average, whichever is lower,
will be excluded while computing the industry average. The outlier will be provided a separate treatment
whereby the difference between outlier price and the industry average will be shared in the ratio of 65:35
between the outlier and the Government respectively. The outlier methodology will also be applicable to
all long-term contracts including all existing long-term contracts such as Ammonia Off-Take Agreement (AOTA)

9. Notification on uniform freight subsidy ON ALL

FERTILIZERS
No.12012/2/2008-FPP
Government of India
Dated the 17th July, 2008.
To
CMD/MDs
SSP Manufacturers as per List annexed.
Subject: Policy for uniform freight subsidy on all fertilizers under the fertilizer subsidy regime.
Sir,
I am directed to convey the approval of the Government for a separate uniform freight subsidy policy on
all subsidised fertilizers covered under the New Pricing Scheme Stage-III (NPS-III) for indigenous urea and the
Concession Scheme on P&K fertilizers being administered by the Department. The policy will also be applicable on
imported Urea subject to contractual obligations, if any. The salient features of the policy are as below:
a) The rail freight expenditure for transportation of fertilizers will be paid as per the actual expenditure based on
actual lead.
b) The road freight towards transportation of fertilizers from nearest railway rake point to block, or from
manufacturing unit/port directly by road to block, consists of two elements lead distance and per KM rate.
This element of subsidy will be paid as below:
i) The lead distance for each block in the district will be based on the average district lead (average of
leads from nearest rail rake point to block headquarters).
ii) The per KM road freight will be paid on the basis of average of existing per KM rate for each State in
the country, being adopted by FICC for reimbursement of freight subsidy for indigenous urea, under
NPS-III.
iii) It will be implemented retrospectively w.e.f. 1.4.08.
c) The normative per KM rate will be annually escalated/de-escalated based on a composite road transport
index (weighted average of the WPIs of HSD oil, Motor Tyres, Truck Chassis and All Commodities) as already
being done under NPS-III.
d) The manufacturing units (especially the SSP units) not having railway siding facilities, will also be reimbursed
the road transportation costs from their unit to the nearest rail rake point based on actual leads and the per
tonne per KM rate, as computed in paras above.
e) The freight subsidy will be paid on actual movement of fertilizers up to the block level based on monthly
district-wise/block movement plans. The subsidy will be released only after the fertilizer reaches the District/
Block as per the monthly plan. Any additional supply beyond 10% of the monthly plan will be eligible for
subsidy only after 120 days of its receipt in the district, provided it is accounted for in the subsequent months
plan.
f) The State Governments will be responsible for confirming the receipts of fertilizers as indicated in the
movement plan in the FMS. They are required to either confirm or deny the receipts of fertilizers within 30
days, whereafter the final freight subsidy will be released to the manufacturers/importers. However, in case
of any report of any non-receipt/shortfall, the difference in freight subsidy will be suitably recovered.
g) The policy is proposed to be implemented from 1st April, 2008. Where the concession price of a fertilizer
includes a fixed freight subsidy, payments so made from 1st April, 2008 till the date of Notification will be
adjusted against the freight subsidy to be paid under this policy. For SSP, the first stage is proposed to be
implemented from 1st October, 2008.
h) The special freight re-imbursement scheme for J&K and North Eastern States stands withdrawn as the freight
will be now based on actual leads.
2. The manufacturers/importers will make separate claims for freight subsidy on monthly basis in the prescribed
proformas which will be separately circulated along with guidelines for the same. A freight module under
FMS, for generation of freight claims are being separately worked out and will be put in place shortly. In the
interim, it is proposed to pay the freight on the basis of average per tone rates indicated below.
i) Indigenous Urea - Rs.616 per MT
ii) Imported Urea - Rs.850 per MT
iii) Indigenous DAP/MAP - Rs.770 per MT
iv) Imported DAP/MAP/TSP - Rs.850 per MT
v) MOP - Rs.623 per MT
vi) Complex Fertilizers - Rs.616 per MT
vii) SSP (w.e.f. 1.10.08) - Rs.616 per MT
3. The base concession rates and final concession rates for P&K fertilizers will be devoid of freight element from
1st April, 2008 onwards and for SSP, from 1st October, 2008 onwards. The provisions of New Pricing Scheme
Stage-III for freight subsidy on indigenous urea will stand amended w.e.f. 1st April, 2008.
4. The manufacturers/importers will have to ensure provision of details of movement and receipts of fertilizers
in various districts/blocks in the country, on the Fertilizer Monitoring System (FMS), in order to be eligible for
freight subsidy.
5. The above will be applicable till further orders.

12. NOTIFICATION ON POLICY FOR NEW INVESTMENTS IN UREA

SECTOR AND LONG-TERM OFF TAkE OF UREA FROM JOINT
VENTURES ABROAD
No.12012/12/2007-FPP
Government of India
Dated the 4th September, 2008.
To,
CMD/MDs
All Urea manufacturing units
Subject: Policy for new investments in urea sector and long-term offtake of urea from joint ventures abroad.
Sir,
I am directed to convey the approval of the Government on policy for New Investments in Urea Sector both
indigenous and abroad, in supersession of the existing policy for investment made in new and expansion projects
of Urea issued vide letter No.12019/11/2003-FPP(I) dated 29th January,2004. The salient features of the New
Investment policy are as under:
1. Import parity price: Import Parity Price for a month would be derived based on the prevailing prices in three
months preceding the month under consideration as indicated below.
Import Parity Price (IPP): The import parity price (IPP) for a particular month will be the lower of the actual
average CIF price of urea imported in India during preceding three months and the IPP reported in the fertilizer
magazines for the same preceding three months, as detailed below:
IPP x = FOB Arabian Gulf + Freight

Where,
IPP x = Import Parity Price for month (x)
FOB Arabian Gulf = Average FOB reported price of urea for AG in the three magazines as listed below, during
preceding three month (x - 1) to (x - 3).
Freight = Average freight for AG in the three magazines listed below, during preceding three month (x - 1) to
(x - 3).
The exchange rate will be taken as the average of preceding three months for arriving at the price in INR. The
three fertilizer magazines to be used for arriving at IPP prices will be as below:
(a) Fertiliser Market Bulletin, UK;
(b) Fertiliser Week by British Sulphur, UK; and
(c) Fertecon Weekly Nitrogen Fax, UK.
2. Floor & Ceiling price: The floor for urea price be kept at USD 250 per MT. The ceiling for urea price is fixed
at USD 425 per MT. The floor and ceiling prices are based on the feedstock price of USD 4.88 per MMBTU,
which is the price of RIL gas plus estimated taxes. In case of any sharp increase (more than double the current
price) in price of feedstock in future, the floor and ceiling will be adjusted to take care of increased cost of
production. Further, the above will be reviewed after five years keeping in view the prevailing gas prices and
the investment costs. In the event that Government guarantees an assured price (subsidized price) of gas to
the fertilizer sector/unit, then for the period for which that the assured price prevails, the floor and ceiling will
be accordingly recalculated.
3. Revamp projects: Any improvement in capacity of existing plants through investments upto Rs.1000 crore, in
the existing train of ammonia-urea production will be treated as revamp of existing units. The additional urea
from the revamp of existing units will be recognised at 85% of Import Parity Price with the floor and ceiling
price as indicated in para-2 above. The urea produced from existing units beyond, their reassessed capacity
under NPS or the maximum achieved capacity by a unit for 330 days in last four years (2003-07), whichever
is higher ( cut off quantity ), will be recognised as the production under revamp of the existing unit. However,
the urea produced under revamp quantity will only be eligible for the above dispensation once the total
production of the unit crosses 105% of the cut off quantity or 110% of the reassessed capacity, whichever is
higher. The cut off quantities for various units can be seen at Annexure-I.
4. Expansion projects: Setting up of a new ammonia-urea plant (a separate new ammonia-urea train) in the
premises of the existing fertilizer plants, utilizing some of the common utilities will qualify for being treated
as an expansion project. The investment should exceed a minimum limit of Rs.3000 cr. The urea from the
expansion of existing units will be recognised at 90% of IPP, with a floor and ceiling price as indicated in para-2
above.
5. Revival/Brownfield projects: The Urea from the revived units of HFCL and FCIL will be recognised at 95%
of IPP, with floor and ceiling as indicated in para-2 above, if the revival of closed units takes place in public
sector.
6. Greenfield projects: The price of Urea from the Greenfield projects will be determined through a bidding
route. The following will be followed incase of Greenfield projects.
i) The Department will identify the location (deficit States) for setting up of Greenfield projects, or in
coastal areas, encourage the urea units to add DAP/Complex fertilizers to their product lines.
ii) The Greenfield projects will be offered for bidding with a minimum floor price {of USD 250 per MT} and
an appropriate ceiling price {of USD 425/MT}, which will be decided at the time of bidding based on
domestic gas prices and the IPP. A commitment to offtake a minimum of 50% of production of the unit
in case of IPP falling below the floor price will be provided by the Government.
iii) The bidder will have to indicate the price as a percentage discount below the prevailing IPP for urea.
The feedstock linkage and price has to be entirely on the account of the bidder.
iv) The detailed guidelines in the matter will be circulated separately.
7. Gas transportation charges: An additional gas transportation cost will be paid to units undertaking expansion
and revival on the basis of actuals (upto 5.2 Gcal per MT of urea) as decided by the Regulator (Gas) subject to
a maximum ceiling of USD 25 per MT of Urea. The cap will be subject to Composite Road Transport Index as
applied in case of road transportation costs under the freight policy. However, in case of each revival project,
the DPR should justify the higher gas transportation costs, if any, in terms of other savings accruing as a result
of the location choice.
8. Allocation of gas: No APM gas will be allocated towards production from the new investments as discussed
above. All APM gas will be allocated towards production in existing plants under the currently approved New
Pricing Scheme Stage-III and its subsequent modifications. The actual mix excluding APM gas will be provided
towards production under revamp.
9. Coal Gasification based Urea Projects: The same will be treated on par with a brownfield or a Greenfield
project as the case may be. In addition, any other incentives or tax benefits as provided by Government for
encouraging coal gasification technology will also be extended to these projects.
10. Joint Ventures abroad: The joint venture projects abroad in gas rich countries will be encouraged through firm
offtake contracts with pricing decided on the basis of prevailing market conditions and in mutual consultation
with the joint venture company. However, the principle for deciding upon the maximum price will be the
price achieved under Greenfield projects or 95% of IPP as applicable to brownfield projects (in absence of any
Greenfield project) with a cap of USD 405 CIF India per MT and a floor of USD 225 CIF India per MT (inclusive
of handling and bagging costs). The offtake commitments from new JV projects abroad would be limited to
a maximum of 5 million tonnes. However this ceiling can be reviewed, and additional committed offtake and
any deviation of price principle thereof can be decided upon by Department of Fertilizers in consultation with
the Department of Expenditure keeping in view that this does not constrain setting up of Greenfield projects
in the country.
11. Time period for proposed investment policy: It is proposed that only those revamp projects which start
production of additional capacities within four years of Notification of the new policy would qualify for the
dispensation recommended above. Similarly, only production from expansion and revival (brownfield) units
that comes about within five years of Notification of the new policy would qualify for dispensation provided
in the policy. If the production does not come through within the stipulated time period, such brownfield
projects will be treated similar to a Greenfield project wherein price will be decided through limited bidding
options. The time period for setting up of new JVs would also be five years under the new policy. Once the
production under various projects start within the given time period, the pricing dispensation will be available
till the continuance of the fertilizer subsidy regime and sale of urea under the same.
12. The policy will be effective from the date of notification. However, the additional production under revamp
beyond cut-off quantities will be computed on an annual basis.

based units. To expedite the conversion of FO/LSHS units, the Government have approved to recognize cost of
conversions of FO/LSHS units through a fixed cost for five years after conversion as per following parameters/
conditions.
a) Only FO/LSHS units viz. NFL- Nangal, NFL- Bathinda, NFL Panipat and GNVFC-Bharuch would be covered
under this policy.
b) Such units would not be allowed to use FO/LSHS as feedstock after conversion.
c) PDIL will evaluate the project report by conducting techno-economic feasibility study. The actual project cost
for conversion would be admitted after scrutiny by a team comprising of representatives of PDIL, DOF, FICC
and respective units and will be in accordance with the final PIB approval along with exchange rate variation
and variation in statutory levies.
d) The pre-set energy would be allowed for 5 years and savings in energy with respect to the same would be
considered on designed/guaranteed basis and then same would be available to the unit for partially meeting
the project cost. Keeping in view the above, the percentage of project cost to be considered for determining
special fixed cost will be decided by the PIB while approving the project cost.
e) The Special Fixed Cost Component shall include:
f) Percentage of the Project Cost as decided by PIB
g) Interest on Borrowed Capital
h) Return on own funds
i) Income tax on Special Fixed Cost (after netting off with respect to allowable project depreciation under Income
Tax, Revenue from special additional fixed cost and interest charge allowed)
j) 12% post tax return (pre tax 18.18% after 30% CT + 10% SC + 3% EC) would be considered for own funds
deployed for the conversion project.
k) The units may fund the project with a combination of borrowed and own funds. Borrowing for project cost
would be considered at the actual rate of interest subject to maximum of SBI PLR.
l) The special additional fixed cost so determined would be fixed for 5 years period and would be paid from the
date of commercial production post conversion upto the end of 5 years and shall be withdrawn at the end of
5 years. The special fixed cost will be paid only for production till 100% of the re-assessed capacity.
m) The project cost considered for special additional fixed cost would not be considered/recognized as capital
addition for the purposes of NFA as well as depreciation during current pricing and future pricing if any.
n) The principal repayment would be considered on half yearly/quarterly basis for interest computation as per
loan agreement/practice of lending Institution.
2. The above scheme would be applicable to all projects undertaken in compliance to the provisions of NPS-III
for conversion of FO/LSHS units to gas based.

Buffer stocking scheme for urea
Indtoductuin
1. The CCEA in its meeting held on 1st February, 2007 while approving NPS Stage-III for urea has authorized the
Department of Fertilizers to operate a buffer stock of urea corresponding to 5% of the seasonal requirement.
Objective
2. The Buffer Stocking of Urea is required keeping in view the following objectives:
(i) To maintain stocks of Urea in case there is either a shortfall in production due to disruption in supplies
of feedstock or delay/disruption in imports.
(ii) To tide-over the suddeen spurt in demand/shortages in any part of the country.
scheme
3. Buffer stock would be positioned in the major agricultural states with the minimum stock being operated at
50,000 tonnes in each state. Major agriculture states requiring buffer stock will be identified at the beginning
of each cropping season.
4. The buffer stocks would beoperated through the lead Fertilizer Suppliers (LFS) for These States as decided by
the Department. The following states will have buffer stock of Urea:-
State
Punjab
Haryana
Rajsthan
UP
MP
AP
Maharashtra
Gujrat
Bihar
West Bengal
Karnataka
Tamil Nadu
Orissa
5. Urea for buffer stocking purposes will be allocated by the Department ofFertilizers under the Essential
Commodities ACT. TheLFS will hold quantities of Urea under the buffer stockin their warehouses at designated
locations as approved by DOF from time to time. Urea will be released from the buffer stock for sale by the LFS
as per the directions of the DOF in consultation with the State Government. The locations of buffer stocking
warehousesand the quantities could be changed as per the instructions of DOF.
6. For the purposes of payment of subsidy, the buffer stock warehouse will be treated as primary stock points
and subsidy will be paid on the urea stocked as buffer once it reaches the burffer sotck warhouse at the
designated location.
7. The company operating the buffer stock will be entitled to Inventory Carrying Cost at a rate 1 percentage point
less than the Prime Landing Rate (PLR) of the State Bank of India as notified from time to time. This rate would
be applicable at Rs. 4650 per MT (MRP less than the dealer's margin i.e. Rs. 4830 Rs. 180) for the quantity and
the duration for which the stock is carried as buffer. In case of cooperative. it will be at Rs. 4630. per MT as
dealers' margin in this case is Rs. 200 per MT.
8. The Company will also be paid ware housing and insurance charges at the rate of Rs. 23 per tonne per month
on the quantity carried as buffer.
9. Since the material will be moved in two stages i.e. from the plant to the buffer stocking point and then on
to consumption points. additional handling charges at the rate of RS. 30 per MT will be apid tothe Fertiliaer
Company on the quantity sold from the buffer stock.
10. In addition, freight from the buffer stocking warehouse th the block in case of movement outside the district
in which buffer stocking godown is located, will also be paid to the company, in accordance with the provisions
under the Uniform Policy for freight subsidy announced by the Government with effect from 1st April, 2008.
11. The Fertilizer companies will be required to submit fortnightly reports to the Department of fertilizers indicating
the quantites of the buffer stock available at each location. The s ame will also be monitored through the on-
line 'Fertilizer Monitoring System'. Appropriate entries will also be made in the Fertilizer Monitoring System
by the company operating the buffer.
12. No Inventory Carrying Cost or warehousing and insurance charges would be payable tothe LFS on stocks held
in excess ofthe quantities agree upon for different period and zones.
13. No other charges other than the above will be paid to the company for operating the buffer stock. The company
will be responsible for safe storage of the Urea as well as for ensuring its quality standards as per FCO norms.
Company will be permitted to rotate the stock in the buffer stocking point by simultaneously drawing down
the stock for normal sale and replenishing the stock by equl quantity. However, it will ve the responsibility of
the company to ensure that at no point the stock in the buffer is less than the stipulated level.
14. The LFS will maintain separate accounts of stock, purchases ans sales for the quantities held under buffer
stocking scheme.
15. Buffer stock will be operated in each State by the LFS concerned at the level prescribed by the DOF. This stock
will be scaled down in the lean months of February-April as decided by the DOF and built-up and maintained
at peak levels in the remaining months of each year.
16. Lead Fertilizer Suppliers will drwn from the buffer stock as per requirement on the direction of the Department
of Fertilizers in consultation with the State Govenment. Quantity sold from the buffer stock will be reoccupied
not later than the 7th of the month subsequent to themonth in which such sale is made.
