1.2. INTRODUCTION OF POWER INDUSTRY
Power industry is consist of three major sub-category i.e. Power Generation, Power
Transmission and last is Power Distribution. Indian Government expect about US $150 billon
investment opportunity in power sector over next 5 years.
POWER GENERATION
The Ministry of Power has set a goal - Mission 2012: Power for All. A comprehensive
Blueprint for Power Sector development has been prepared encompassing an integrated strategy
for the sector development with objectives of Sufficient power to achieve GDP growth rate of
8%, Reliable of power, Quality power, Optimum power cost, Commercial viability of power
industry and Power for all.

Renewable Energy Sources(RES) include SHP, BG, BP, U&I and Wind Energy.
India has fifth largest Electricity Generation capacity in the world. Currently India is
facing huge demand-supply Gap. All India average energy shortfalls of 10.1% in regular time
and 13.3 % in peak demand in 2009-10. As a result there is need for huge investment in a power
generation sector. The Government of India has an ambitious mission ofPOWER FOR ALL
BY 2012. This mission would require that our installed generation capacity should be at least 2,
00,000 MW by 2012 from the present level of 1, 61,351.80 MW. The government is, therefore
exploring several alternatives to bridge the gap. This includes grater energy cooperation with
neighboring countries such as Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri lanka.
There is immense potential to step up power exchange, particularly with Nepal and
Bhutan, both of which have a huge hydro potential that has not yet been fully exploited.

POWER TRANSMISSION
Power transmission can be defined as a Transmission of electricity is defined as bulk
transfer of power over a long distance a high voltage, generally of 132 kV and above. In Indiabulk transmission has increased from 3708 km in 1950 to more than 265,000 km today. The
entire country has been divided into five regions for transmission systems, namely, Northern
Region, North Eastern Region, Eastern Region, Southern Region and Western Region. The
interconnected transmission system within each region is also called the regional grid.
To be able to reach this power to the entire country an expansion of the regional
transmission network and inter regional capacity to transmit power would be essential. The latter
is required because resources are unevenly distributed in the country and power needs to be
carried great distances to areas where load centers exist.
The transmission system planning in the country, in the past, had traditionally been
linked to generation projects as part of the evacuation system. Ability of the power system to
safely withstand a contingency without generation rescheduling or load-shedding was the main
criteria for planning the transmission system. However, due to various reasons such as spatial
development of load in the network, non-commissioning of load centre generating units
originally planned and deficit in reactive compensation, certain pockets in the power system
could not safely operate even under normal conditions. This had necessitated backing down of
generation and operating at a lower load generation balance in the past. Transmission planning
has therefore moved away from the earlier generation evacuation system planning to integrated
system planning.
While the predominant technology for electricity transmission and distribution has been
Alternating Current (AC) technology, High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) technology has also
been used for interconnection of all regional grids across the country and for bulk transmission
of power over long distances.

POWER DISTRIBUTION
The total Installed generating capacity in the country is over 149,000 MW and the total
number of consumers is over 144 million. Apart from an extensive transmission system network
at 500 kV HVDC ,400kV 220 kV, 132 kV and 66 kV which has developed to transmit the Power
from the generating station to the grid substations, a vast network of sub transmission in
distribution system has also come up for the utilization of the power by the ultimate consumers.
However, due to lack of adequate investment on T&D works, the T&D losses have been
consistently on higher side, and reached to the level of 32.86% in the year 2000-01.The reduction
of these losses was essential to bring economic viability to the State Utilities.
As the T&D loss was not able to capture all the losses in the net work, concept of
Aggregate Technical and Commercial (AT&C) loss was introduced. AT&C loss captures
technical as well as commercial losses in the network and is a true indicator of total losses in the
system.
High technical losses in the system are primarily due to inadequate investments over the
years for system improvement works, which has resulted in unplanned extensions of the
distribution lines, overloading of the system elements like transformers and conductors, and lack
of adequate reactive power support.
The commercial losses are mainly due to low metering efficiency, theft & pilferages. Thismay be eliminated by improving metering efficiency, proper energy accounting & auditing and
improved billing & collection efficiency. Fixing of accountability of the personnel / feeder
managers may help considerably in reduction of AT&C loss.
VARIOUS GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES
With the initiative of the Government of India and of the States, the Accelerated Power
Development & Reform Programme(APDRP) was launched in 2001, for the strengthening ofSub Transmission and Distribution network and reduction in AT&C losses.
The focus of the program shall be on actual, demonstrable performance in terms of
sustained loss reduction. Establishment of reliable and automated systems for sustained
collection of accurate base line data, and the adoption of Information Technology in the areas of
-

energy accounting will be essential before taking up the regular distribution strengthening
projects.
The main objective of the programme was to bring Aggregate Technical & Commercial
(AT&C) losses below 15% in five years in urban and in high-density areas. The programme,
along with other initiatives of the Government of India and of the States, has led to reduction in
the overall AT&C loss from 38.86% in 2001-02 to 34.54% in 2005-06. The commercial loss of
the State Power Utilities reduced significantly during this period from Rs. 29331 Crores to Rs.
19546 Crores. The loss as percentage of turnover was reduced from 33% in 2000-01 to 16.60%
in 2005-06.
The APDRP programme is being restructured by the Government of India, so that the
desired level of 15% AT&C loss could be achieved by the end of 11th plan.Second Initiatives of
Government is Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Vidyutikaran Yojana. Rajiv Gandhi Grameen
Vidyutikaran Yojana (RGGVY) was launched in April-05 by merging all ongoing schemes.
Under the programme 90% grant is provided by Govt. of India and 10% as loan by REC to the
State Governments. REC is the nodal agency for the programme. The RGGVY aims at:
y Electrifying all villages and habitations as per new definition
y Providing access to electricity to all rural households
y Providing electricity Connection to Below Poverty Line (BPL) families free of charge
y Typical Power Transmission and Distribution Scenario with DA components

1.3. NEED FORINTERNATIONAL (EXPORTS / IMPORTS)
TRADE
Every country in the globe has to depend on the others for some purpose or other. In
modern world the wants are increasing and they cannot be satisfied within a country. All
products/ services cannot be providing within a countrys limit. Crossing the boundaries of
countries or even crossing the boundaries of the world will become the order of the globe, to
fulfill its needs and demands.
Nature has distributed the factors of production unequally over different countries and so
certain countries are endowed with certain resources abundantly. Countries differ in terms of
climatic conditions, natural resources, mineral resources, mines labors and capital resources,
technological competencies, entrepreneurial and managerial capabilities and many other
variables which are essential for producing goods and services. Hence different countries
become experts in certain production / services whereas theories are not so in several others.
Therefore countries depend on each other and get the goods and services from the
countries which are more efficient then themselves.
There are several theories of international trade about which you may be already aware.
These theories indicate or explain why export import is taking place. Just to mention some of
them are
y absolute cost advantage theory
y comparative cost theory
y factor proportion theory
y human capital approach
y natural resources theory
y R & D on product life cycle theory
y Scale economies theory
Thus the international trade is necessitated by so many complex variables / factors and it is
clear that international trade cannot be neglected for development of a country.

Let us consider a case where Indian company exports cotton fabrics to USA and invoices
the goods in US dollar. The American importer will pay the amount in US dollar, as the same is
his home currency. However the Indian exporter requires rupees means his home currency for
procuring raw materials and for payment to the labor charges etc. Thus he would need
exchanging US dollar for rupee. If the Indian exporters invoice their goods in rupees, thenimporter in USA will get his dollar converted in rupee and pay the exporter.
From the above example we can infer that in case goods are bought or sold outside the
country, exchange of currency is necessary.
Sometimes it also happens that the transactions between two countries will be settled in
the currency of third country. In that case both the countries that are transacting will require
converting their respective currencies in the currency of third country. For that also the foreign
exchange is required.

2.6.2. OIL & GAS PIPELINE
The company has entered into EPC Contracting of Cross Country Gas & Oil
Pipelines since 2004.
After the Oil & Gas sector has been opened up in India, and the demand of energy per
capita has been rising steadily with the growth in economy, the demand of Pipelines for natural
gas and petroleum products in India has been witnessing a spurt. The phenomenon has been
replicated in many parts of world and as a result, more and more pipelines are being set up in
various parts of the world to facilitate transport connectivity between farthest point to the source.
Natural gas has emerged as the dominant source of additional energy in world. There
exists a huge deficit of natural gas based on current production and demand data in India. While
additional gas quantities, almost equal to existing gas production in the country, are in an
advanced stage of preparation to be made available through LNG and new gas finds, the
infrastructure to transport this gas to demand centers is required to be augmented and partly built
afresh. It is projected that an estimated 5,000 kms of big-inch gas pipelines will be set up in next
3-5 years in India.
Although almost 4,000 Kms of new pipelines have been built in India in the last 3-4
years, the pipeline network available in India today is still inadequate to transport the natural gas
& petroleum products to demand centers in an efficient, safe and environment friendly way. To
meet the growing demand and in view of the awareness of people towards environment, it is
projected that over 2,000 kms of product and crude oil pipelines will be built in next 4-5 years.

Kalpa-taru has over the last 5 years built a full-fledged organization to take forward our
Pipeline business, led by highly experienced and competent persons, who are well-respected in
the pipeline industry in India. More & more internationally experienced & qualified
professionals are joining the division regularly making it a formidable contender in the industry.
Along with a well experienced team, the company has made large investments in
specialized pipeline equipments to sieze the opportunity available in the EPC contracting of Oil
& Gas pipelines for clients such as GAIL, IOCL, HPCL, BPCL, GSPC, Reliance, HMEL etc in
India and for PDO, OGC, ADNOC, DEPA, ARAMCO & Petronas etc. internationally.
Kalpa-taru lays down very high emphasis on health, safety and environment aspects
besides high standards of quality to be maintained in accordance with companys Safety &
Quality Policy and manuals. Due to continued training and unabated surveillance of
implementation of safety practices at site, Kalpa-taru has clocked over 15 Million man-hours at
various projects in the last 5 years without a single Lost time Injury (LTI).
As a strategy, we have set up a Welders training center at Gandhinagar, where we bring
qualified young welders and train them up for cross-country operations and down-hill welding.
They form a reserve pool for us to draw from for our various projects. These welders are trained
for zero defect welding. We have on our rolls a large number of other skilled personnel from
other pipeline disciplines, who are also regularly trained and kept in reserve.
BREAKTHROUGH ACHIEVEMENTS
In 2006 we completed our first contract for the construction of 16 dia x 386 Kms and 8
dia x 56 Kms product Pipeline from Laban (nearKota) to Bijwasan (Delhi) for Bharat Petroleum
Corporation Ltd. (BPCL) worth Rs. 830 Million (USD 17 Mn). The contract was secured by the
companys International Pipeline partner, who bid for the Project with our support and was
executed on EPC basis by Kalpa-taru as back to back contractor.

3.1. INTERNATIONAL TRADE :
International trade is exchange of capital, goods, and services across international
borders or territories. While international trade has been present throughout much of history its
economic, social, and political importance has been on the rise in recent centuries.Industrialization, advanced transportation, globalization, multinational corporations, and
outsourcing are all having a major impact on the international trade system. Increasing
international trade is crucial to the continuance of globalization. International trade is a major
source of economic revenue for any nation that is considered a world power. Without
international trade, nations would be limited to the goods and services produced within their own
borders.
International trade is in principle not different from domestic trade as the motivation andthe behavior of parties involved in a trade does not change fundamentally depending on whether
trade is across a border or not. The main difference is that international trade is typically more
costly than domestic trade. The reason is that a border typically imposes additional costs such as
tariffs, time costs due to border delays and costs associated with country differences such as
language, the legal system or a different culture.
International trade uses a variety of currencies, the most important of which are held as
foreign reserves by governments and central banks. Here the percentage of global cumulative
reserves held for each currency between 1995 and 2005 are shown: the US dollar is the most
sought-after currency, With the Euro in strong demand as well.
Another difference between domestic and international trade is that factors of production
such as capital and labor are typically more mobile within a country than across countries. Thus
international trade is mostly restricted to trade in goods and services, and only to a lesser extent
to trade in capital, labor or other factors of production.
3.1.1. THERE ARE TWO TYPE OF INTERNATIONAL TRADING IS
DOING BY THE KALPA-TARU. :
1. Turnkey Project Contract.
2. Pure Supply Contract.

3.1.2. INTERNATIONAL TRADE TRANSACTIONS AND
COMPLEXITIES
Compared to local trade, International Trade has many complexities. This may be due to
the following reasons: Buyer and seller separated by long distance and may not know each other.
Buyer and seller are residing in two different countries which are two different
sovereign political entities.
Buyer and seller are governed by two different legal systems.
Currencies of buyer and seller are different.
Buyer and seller are governed by different trade and exchange regulations.
METHODS OF SETTLEMENT
The more popular methods of settlement and advantages/reasons thereof are summarized below:
Cash in Advance or Clean Advance
Payment by Letter of Credit
Documentary Collection Open Account Payment or Deferred Payment
CASH IN ADVANCE OR CLEAN ADVANCE:
Seller may not trust buyer and insists upon payment in advance and ships the goods
thereafter. Buyer has trust in seller, pays for the goods in advance and waits for documents
(goods).
PAYMENT BY LETTER OF CREDIT:
Seller gets his payment as soon as he ships the goods and produces the necessary
documents in compliance with the conditions. He has the guarantee of a bank for his payment.
-
8/8/2019 A Integrated Approach on International Contracting Final
45/97
45
Buyer requests his bank to pay or arrange to pay seller after he ships goods and presents the
requisite documents in compliance with his buyers requirements. It also includes Buyers credit.
DOCUMENTARY COLLECTION:
Seller relies on buyer and agrees to ship the goods and to receive payment after
documents reach the buyer. Buyer may not trust and agrees to pay only after he ships the goods
and sends the relevant documents i.e. takes documents and pays.
OPEN ACCOUNT PAYMENT OR DEFERRED PAYMENT:
Seller has more trust in buyer and ships the goods, allows buyer to use the goods and pay
for them at a later date.
Buyer enjoys the confidence of seller and receives goods when he agrees to pay on a pre-
agreed date.
INCOTERMS:
Incoterms are standard trade definitions most commonly used in international sales
contracts. Devised and published by the International Chamber of Commerce, they are at the
heart of world trade. Among the best known Incoterms are EXW (Ex works),FOB (Free on
Board), CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight), DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid), and CPT (CarriagePaid To).
ICC introduced the first version of Incoterms - short for "International Commercial
Terms" - in 1936. Since then, ICC expert lawyers and trade practitioners have updated them six
times to keep pace with the development of international trade. Most contracts made after 1
January 2000 will refer to the latest edition of Incoterms, which came into force on that date. The
correct reference is to "Incoterms 2000". Unless the parties decide otherwise, earlier versions of
Incoterms - like Incoterms 1990 - are still binding if incorporated in contracts that are unfulfilled
and date from before 1 January 2000.
Incoterms are categorized in to four different categories, each denoted by a different
letter:
-
8/8/2019 A Integrated Approach on International Contracting Final
46/97
46
E, F, C, and D. Each letter category explains how much the buyer or the seller
responsible will be taken on by the respective parties:
E terms:
There is only one term in this group and it requires little or no accommodation by the exporter.
F terms:
Terms in this group is where the main carriage is not paid, but the exporter is responsible for, and
at risk, until delivery to carrier.
C terms:
The main carriage is paid by the exporter, but without risk or loss after shipment or delivery.
D terms:
The exporter pays all fright and bears all risks until arrival of the goods at named destination, in
this group.
There 13 Incoterms which are as follows:
EXW- EX WORKS
Ex works means the sellers only responsibility is to make the goods available at thesellers premises, i.e. the works or factory. The seller is not responsible for loading the goods on
the vehicle provided by the buyer unless otherwise agreed. There is no control over the final
destination of the goods. The buyer bears the full costs and risk involved in bringing the goods
from there to the desired destination. Ex works represents the minimum obligation of the seller.
FCA- FREE CARRIER
The seller hands over the goods, cleared for export, into the custody of the first carrier(named by the buyer) at the named place. This term is suitable for all modes of transport,
including carriage by air, rail, and road. When used in trade terms, the word "free" means the
seller has an obligation to deliver goods to a named place for transfer to a carrier.
-

damage to the goods is transferred from seller to buyer to that time not at the ships rail.
The term carrier means any person by whom or in whose name a contract of carriage
by road, rail, air, sea, or a combination of modes has been made. When a seller has been
furnished a bill of lading, way bill or carriers receipt, the seller duly fulfills its obligations by
presenting such a document issued by a carrier.

Insurance is generally more important in international shipping than domestic shipping, because
U.S. laws generally hold a common carrier to be liable for lost or damaged goods. The seller has
to arrange for the carriage of goods by sea to a port of destination, and provide the buyer with the
documents necessary to obtain the goods from the carrier.
CPT-CARRIAGE PAID TO
The seller pays for carriage to the named point of destination, but risk passes when the
goods are handed over to the first carrier. Accordingly, freight/carriage paid to can be used for
all modes of transportation, including container or roll-on roll-off traffic by trailers and ferries.
The price invoiced or quoted by a seller does not include insurance cost, but includes all
other charges up to a named place of destination (usually the buyer's warehouse). In comparison,
cost and freight (C&F) terms include transport charges only up to a named port of destination.
CIP- CARRIAGE AND INSURANCE PAID TO
In CIP, the seller/exporter arranges for the goods to be delivered to the named port of
destination. Similar to CPT, the sellers risks do not end until the moment the goods have been
delivered to the carrier, but typically do not end until the carrier reaches the agreed destination.
Because this incoterm can be used for any mode of transport, a carrier in this case could be a
steamship line, a trucker, a railroad, or a freight forwarder.
The seller is responsible for all costs until the goods have been delivered to the named
port of destination. In this case, the named port of destination is domestic to the buyer, meaning
that the named port must be a port in the buyers country, however unlike other similar
Incoterms the named port of destination is not necessarily the final delivery point: it could be, but
it could also be an agreed upon point at the port of destination.
DAF- DELIVERED AT FRONTIER
This term can be used when the goods are transported by rail and road. The seller pays
for transportation to the named place of delivery at the frontier. The buyer arranges for customs
clearance and pays for transportation from the frontier to his factory. The passing of risk occurs
at the frontier.

The seller has to deliver goods to a named destination, usually a border location, by a
predetermined time. Up to the border, the seller is responsible for all risks and expenses
associated with the delivery.
DES- DELIVERED EX SHIP
Where goods are delivered ex ship, the passing of risk does not occur until the ship has
arrived at the named port of destination and the goods made available for unloading to the buyer.
The seller pays the same freight and insurance costs as he would under a CIF arrangement.
Unlike CFR and CIF terms, the seller has agreed to bear not just cost, but also Risk and
Title up to the arrival of the vessel at the named port. Costs for unloading the goods and any
duties, taxes, etc are for the Buyer.
DEQ- DELIVERED EX QUAY
In international trade, it is a contract specification where the seller must deliver the goods
to the wharf at the destination port. Delivered ex quay may be noted as having duty paid or
unpaid. If it is marked as paid, the seller is responsible for any costs, such as duty, and risks
associated with the delivery. The buyer must pay the costs and duty when the DEQ is marked as
"duty unpaid."
Delivered ex quay is an alternative to delivered ex ship (DES). With a DES specification,the seller must make the goods available on board a ship at the destination port. DEQ changes
the specification, noting that the goods must be delivered to the wharf.
DDU- DELIVERED DUTY UNPAID
This term means that the seller delivers the goods to the buyer to the named place of
destination in the contract of sale. The goods are not cleared for import or unloaded from any
form of transport at the place of destination.
The buyer is responsible for the costs and risks for the unloading, duty and any
subsequent delivery beyond the place of destination. However, if the buyer wishes the seller to
bear cost and risks associated with the import clearance, duty, unloading and subsequent delivery
beyond the place of destination, then this all needs to be explicitly agreed upon in the contract of
sale.

DDP- DELIVERED DUTY PAID
A transaction in which the seller must pay for all of the costs related to transporting the
goods and is responsible in full for the goods until they have been received and transferred to the
buyer. This includes paying for the shipping, the duties and any other expenses incurred while
shipping the goods. This type of delivery agreement places all of the risks and costs with the
seller of the good until delivery is made. If the goods are damaged or lost in transit, the seller
will be responsible for the costs.

4.1. PREAMBLE:
Turnkey project means completion of entire project (specified by purchaser) including
supply of each and every items and services including construction required for completing
project in ready to use stage.
In case of turnkey project, the Purchase just need to Turn the Key to start use of thing /
product / project ordered.
In case of turnkey project, contractor takes full responsibility for completion and
functioning of agreed facilities.
Project can be defined as a discrete package of investments, services and other
actions designed to create within a designated period of time capital assets that produce
benefits for the client over an extended period of time.
Due to globalization, markets for turnkey bidders have been widened and which leaded to
cut throat competition.
4.1.1. INTERNATIONAL SCENARIO OF POWER TRANSMISSION LINE
TURNKEY PROJECTS:
In case of power transmission line turnkey projects, international Markets are also
witnessing rapid change in the competition pattern with Indian, Saudi, Turkish and Bosnian
Firms, trying to get a foot hold in many overseas markets directly or as a sub-supplier to leading
MNCs. With the decline in Far East / South East Asian market potential ever since the currency
crisis, African markets are emerging as the favourates destination and Indian firms suffer from
the logistic disadvantage of higher ocean freight rates, as compared to the other competitors from
that region.
Also the local firms who are well entrenched in their respective markets and have beenenjoying local price preferences, offer stiff competition to foreign predators and exert influence
through lobbying with local Govts. for better protection measures to safeguard their citadel.

The company can develop strategies to overcome these competitive forces through
consortium formation and participation in turnkey projects to have a fair share of the
international market as well.
4.1.2. RATIONALE OF TURNKEY BIDDING
To obtain a contract awarded competitive price to be quoted. To calculate competitive
price levels it is inevitable to collect the correct information. Any error in pricing would be very
crucial. For example, less pricing leads to loss to the company and over pricing get the company
out from competition. Hence, a systematic and precautious approach is essential for bidding to
get a contract awarded.
It is a well-known fact that maximum profit can reap from turnkey project because of itsnature of full scope of work.
Since value of turnkey projects are in crores, award / loss of any turnkey project will have
a major impact on contractors financial condition.
As responsibility for implementing turnkey contract lies with single source, which helps
the scheduling and planning very effectively, Generally turnkey contracts are executed in time if
any delay then there may be huge penalties on total contract value and not on unfinished portion.
By adopting the turnkey project, the client also have various advantages such as co-
ordination with various agencies get minimized and only main contractor is accountable for
entire contract.
4.1.3 TURNKEY PROJECT
Turnkey project means design, engineering, type testing and supply of all requiredmaterials and installation of a project with a single source of responsibility. Turnkey project is
generally adopted in Power Transmission Line, Road construction, rural electrification, rail
electrification, etc. Turnkey Project can be of different types;

y Full Scope Turnkey Project - Under this scheme prices are to be quoted as per bill of
quantities provided by client. In this case, if there is any change in requirement of
quantities, accordingly contract price is adjusted. In addition to basic price specification
also allows price variation to compensate the cost hike for various inputs. However,
applicability of price variation depends on tenure of the contract, generally for 12 monthcontract prices are fixed at firm basis.
y Lump sum Price Turnkey Project Under this contract, contractor is required to
complete the project at fixed price and there is no adjustment is done for quantities
variation. While bidding this type tender contractor has to take extra precautions to built
up the cost for inputs, which may be required during execution. In Power Transmission
Line case lump sum price means that destination for both the end are decided and if there
is any change in destination, then corresponding to that variation contract price also get
adjusted.
y Complete Scope with Lump sum Price Turnkey Project Under this scheme technical
details for each product are to be designed by the contractor and also estimate all the
required items. Once total amount is quoted there is scope for any adjustments. In this
case contract is required to study the various details in depth before finalizing the price.
y BOOT Route Turnkey Project (Built Own Operate & Transfer) - In this case contractor
execute project with their own money and operate for a specific period and on expiry of
the period transfer the project to clients. Under this project contractor will get monthly
tariff from client. In the prevailing market a good growth is expected for such projects.
