CPO export tax range has been revised to 7.5% to 22.5% (Earlier it was 1.5% to 25% based on CIF Rotterdam price ranges).The  reference  price  (base  export  price)  for  crude  palm  oil  will  be  calculated  base  on  average  prices  at Rotterdam, Bursa Malaysia Derivatives or  the  Jakarta Bourse.  (Earlier  the same was based on mere CPO CIF Rotterdam prices) The export tax cap on palm oil Olein products (downstream) was cut to 13 percent (Earlier the same was 25 percent)

Implications to Stake Holders

13

© TransGraph Consulting Pvt Ltd   Slide© TransGraph Consulting Pvt Ltd   Slide 14

Malaysian  refining  industry  shall  now  have intensified  competition as  Indonesia attempts  to create market for itself.

More  than  pure  refining  industry,  high  degree value  added  industries  viz.  Specialty  fats,  Oleo Chemicals of Malaysia need  to share  its clientele base with the new supplier.Depreciation  of MYR  against  USD  from  2.99  to 3.2 (by 7%) since Mar’12 has temporarily rescued Malaysian Refining industry.

Indian  Olein industry  cannot  compete  with foreign originating cheaper oil.Vanaspati or modernly called  IE  fat  industry shall have squeezed supply of  feed stock – so  in  long‐run the industry shall become non‐economicalSpecialty  fats  and  Oleo  industries  that  are  in nurturing  stage  too  shall  need  policy  support as higher feed stock prices might curtail their profitsAs  such  consolidation  shall  pick‐up  pace apart from operating rates falling down sharply.

Indonesia Export tax restructuring –

Effects could be Seismic in nature

These are few to state, while given palm industry’s sheer size, ripple effects could be uncountable`

MALAYSIA INDIA

In addition, nations like Netherlands, Egypt, Saudi Arabia which are sole CPO importers too face similar crisis of their domestic refining industry.Countries  like China who are RBD Olein importers have a price advantage with  Indonesia’s competitive price quotes

palm 

incremental 

consumption of 15.8 MT, India accounted 

for 29%.

Hypothetically, 

if

With

Indian 

operating 

rates 

dropped 

precipitously 

and 

with 

Indonesian 

tax 

changes, the industry could be 

pushed to “Un‐viable”

West & East based refiners too 

shall undergo stress tests.

This happens for two reasons

1.

LOW CAPACITY UTILIZATION ‐

Already suffering with low capacity utilization and so if these rates further reduce, 

it is only killing

2.

ABSENCE OF DOWNSTREAM INDUSTRIES ‐

Value addition stops mostly at Olein

level, hence leveraging from high 

profit making specialty fats, vanaspati

and refining of other edible oils is absent

Our Study shows that, Indian players earn very high double digit

margins in value added downstream products while the same would be mere 2% in RBD olein

refining

© TransGraph Consulting Pvt Ltd   Slide© TransGraph Consulting Pvt Ltd   Slide

Indian Refining Industry -

West & East based refiners are better placed

21

Why??

Highly leveraged due to multi oil refining avenues

These  regions  account  for  75%  of  biscuit  &  confectionary  industries  and  more  than  80%  of Vanaspati (vegetable oil hard fat) making. 80% of the feedstock used in these industries is stearin.

80%  of Oleo  industry  is  located  in  North  and West  India  providing  good  scope  for  offloading byproducts

Hence, those CPO refiners who don’t have high end value addition facilities in place, will be FIRST to hit. While drilling it region wise, South Indian units are badly effected.

Indian Price Spreads

© TransGraph Consulting Pvt Ltd   Slide© TransGraph Consulting Pvt Ltd   Slide 23

Olein

CPO spread squeezing will be the biggest pain point for the industry

Now 

the 

industry 

is 

worried 

that, 

in 

the 

rush 

of 

market making, Indonesia will pressurize Olein

prices 

and hence the spreads between the oils will become 

a “Permanent Business Risk”.

Typically Indian industry will now turn more speculative –

i.e. emphasize more on price views to ensure margins required to run the business units –

like the case of Indian soy crush industry or industry players will move up the chain.

So finally how Indonesia policies impact industry in the wake of my weak price outlook

It will be double wammy…..For Indonesian CPO Sellers

• As prices fall and incidental tax will be high in lower price brackets – much to shell-out to Govt.

For Malaysia and India• Indonesia vendors will resort to more aggressive selling of Olein and that is killing for refining industries in both these nations.

Perspectives

It is only matter of time, counter-intuitive policy revisions are bound to come, especially India and Malaysia could react Following are the likely policy changes possible.By Malaysia:1.Could initiate a dialogue with Indonesia2.lift the export quota ceiling of CPO and employ similar tax structures followed by Indonesia on CPO –

level playing field

By India:1.Logically, base import price could be revised from $484/ton to 950/1000$ per ton. It will double the 

incidental tax ensuring margin making scope for the refiners

a)

If this happens, Olein

prices will shoot higher tentatively translating into demand destruction2.Could initiate a dialogue with Indonesia3.Or Origin shift to Central America in the longer run

Overall the source countries priorities in order are1.

Find markets for the palm oil2.

Find market for the refined products to ensure development of industry.There 

should

countries like USA should be observed by Indonesia.
