Q1 Fiscal year 2021 vs. Previous Quarters
Mined metal production for Q1FY21 was 202,000 tonnes, down 5% as compared to Q1FY20 and 19% as compared Q4FY20 due to fewer days of production in April and lower workforce availability on account of restrictions related to COVID-19. Ore grades were flat from a year ago and were lower sequentially as per mine plan and mix shift.
Integrated metal production was 202,000 tonnes for Q1FY21, down 8% as compared to Q1FY20 and 9% as compared to Q4FY20 due to lower production in April. Integrated zinc production was 157kt, down 8% as compared to Q1FY20 and 9% as compared to Q4FY20 while integrated lead production was 44,000 tonnes for Q1FY21, down 7% as compared to Q1FY20 and 10% as compared to Q4FY20. Integrated saleable silver production was 3.8 moz, down 26% as compared to Q1FY20 and 30% as compared to Q4FY20 due to delayed stabilization of DSC lead smelter and increase in WIP, partly offset by higher silver grades.
Projects Update
- Rampura Agucha Shaft project has been completed.
- First dry tailing plant was commissioned in Zawar
- Sindesar Khurd production shaft was ramped up post its commissioning towards the end of FY 2019 Smelter debottlenecking to expand capacity to 1.13 mtpa was completed during the quarter.

Q1 Fiscal year 2021 vs. Previous Quarters
Total production for Q1FY21 was 38,000 tonnes, lower by 36% as compared to Q1FY20 and 34% as compared to Q4FY20 mainly due to Skorpion undergoing maintenance from April 2020 because of multiple slope failures in FY20 and also COVID-19 impact which resulted in production resuming from 17th April 2020 at BMM and Gamsberg mines.
Skorpion produced 700 tonnes in Q1FY21 as compared to 18,000 tonnes in Q1FY20 and 15,000 tonnes in Q4 FY20. In May 2019, Skorpion experienced a major open pit failure which resulted in an ore gap of four months - which thus required the stoppage of the Refinery from November 2019 to January 2020. The failure was safely and successfully mined out. However, further (smaller) failures have since occurred with the latest one in January 2020 sterilizing a significant portion of the open pit. This has resulted in an ore gap in excess of 10 months. Further technical studies have indicated the likely existence of similar such failure structures at depth.
All mining operations at Skorpion have been decided to be ceased, while studies continue to look at feasible ways to make the pit safe for mining options which would allow for the extraction of the remainder of the accessible ore.
BMM produced 12,000 tonnes in Q1FY21 as compared to 19,000 tonnes in Q1FY20. Tons processed were 276,000 in Q1FY21 as compared to 399,000 in Q1 FY20 with substantially lower lead grades.
BMM production was flat sequentially. Production was mainly impacted by COVID-19 related lockdown which resulted in the mine only starting on 17th April at 50% capacity in line with government regulations. Production in Q4FY20 was impacted by suspension of mining operations for 16 days on account of a fatality.
Gamsberg's production was 25,000 tonnnes in Q1 FY21, 11% higher as compared to Q1 FY20 due to higher throughput and zinc grades and was lower 15% as compared to Q4 FY20, mainly due to impact of COVID-19 related lockdown and lower throughput and recoveries.
Fiscal year 2020 vs. Fiscal year 2019
During FY20, total production was 240,000 tonnes, higher 63% as compared to FY19 on account of commencement of production from Gamsberg. While Skorpion and BMM production was in line with previous year, Gamsberg produced 108,000 tonnes vs 17,000 tonnes. Gamsberg Mining has fully ramped up to 4 Mtpa capacity and ~1.8 Mt of healthy ore stockpile has been built ahead of plant as on March 2020. Recovery continues to be a focus area as the plant ramps up and is stable.

Q1 Fiscal year 2021 vs. Previous Quarters
Average gross operated production during Q1FY21 across our assets was 158,779 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd), down by 12% as compared to Q1FY20 and 1% as compared to Q4FY20. This was mainly due to delay in execution of growth projects due to implementation of nationwide lockdown imposed by the Government to curb the spread of COVID-19 and natural reservoir decline at the MBA fields.
Gross production from the Rajasthan block averaged 127,937 boepd for the quarter, 14% lower as compared to Q1 FY20 and 3% lower as compared to Q4FY20. The decrease in volume was primarily due to the natural decline from the fields and delay in activities due to COVID-19 lockdown restrictions. As part of the growth projects, 232

wells have been drilled and 82 wells have been hooked up till Q1 FY21. Gross production from Development Area-1(DA-1), Development Area-2(DA-2) and Development Area-3(DA-3) averaged 115,151 boepd, 12,479 boepd and 307 boepd respectively.
Gas production from Raageshwari Deep Gas (RDG) averaged 90.3 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscfd) (equiv. 15.0 kboepd) in Q1 FY21, with gas sales post captive consumption at 64.6 mmscfd (equiv. 10.8 kboepd). Early production facility has been commissioned and ramped up to its designed capacity of 90 mmscfd. There was a fall in gas demand during April due nationwide lockdown imposed by the Government to curb the spread of COVID-19. The demand got restored in May 2020.
The Ravva block produced at an average rate of 22,037 boepd for Q1FY21, up 63% as compared to Q1FY20 and 25% as compared to Q4FY20 supported by production from new wells drilled through Ravva drilling campaign commenced as a part of growth project during FY20.
The Cambay block produced at an average rate of 8,805 boepd for the Q1FY21, lower 49% as compared to Q1 FY20 and 20% as compared to Q4FY20. This was primarily due to natural field decline and gas sales restriction on account of reduced demand from buyers due to COVID-19 lockdown during April 2020.

Fiscal year 2020 vs. Fiscal year 2019
Average gross operated production across our assets was at 172,971 boepd in FY 2020, 8% down as compared to FY 2019. Production from Rajasthan block was at 144,260 boepd, 7% lower as compared to FY 19. The decrease was primarily due to natural reservoir decline and maintenance shutdown of Mangala Processing Terminal (MPT) carried out in February'20. The decline was partly offset by gains accruing from ramp up of early gas production facilities and new wells brought online. Production from the offshore assets, was at a combined 28,711 boepd, lower 13% as compared to FY 2019, owing to natural field decline.

Q1 Fiscal year 2021 vs. Previous Quarters
Total saleable production for Q1FY21 was 2,67,000 tonnes, lower by 17% as compared to Q1FY20, due to lower furnace availability in Q1FY21 for ~60 days owing to supply crunch amidst nationwide lockdown due to COVID- 19 resulting in ~ 60,000 tonnes of hot metal volume loss. Sequentially, total saleable production was lower by 16%.
Fiscal year 2021 vs. Fiscal year 2020
Total saleable production for FY2021 was 1,231,000 tonnes, 3% higher y-o-y owing to better furnace availability and plant operations.

Smelting operations at Tuticorin have been halted since April 2018. The Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board (TNPCB) through an order dated 9th April 2018 rejected the Consent to Operate (CTO) of the Tuticorin Plant and issued a direction for closure and disconnection of power supply at the plant. In May 2018, The Government of Tamil Nadu has issued orders with a direction to permanently seal the existing copper smelter plant at Tuticorin. In response to Vedanta Limited's appeal to the National Green Tribunal (NGT) against the afore mentioned orders, in December 2018, NGT set aside Tamil Nadu Government's order and directed TNPCB to renew the CTO subject to complying of certain directions as specified in the order.
However, in February 2019, The Hon'ble Supreme Court set aside NGT's order on the grounds of maintainability and has given liberty to approach Madras High Court for filing a writ petition before the Madras High Court challenging the impugned orders and seek interim relief considering that Vedanta Limited's plant has been shut since end March 2018. The Company has filed a writ petition before Madras High Court challenging the various orders passed against the company in 2018 and 2013 and the matter is pending adjudication. The hearing was concluded on January 8, 2020. The final judgement of the Madras High Court is awaited.
Our Silvassa refinery and wire rod plant continue to operate. This enables us to cater to the domestic market. Production from the Silvassa refinery was 4% higher in Q1FY21 as compared to Q1FY20 due to partially improved availability of customised anode & secondary material. However the production was lower by 35% compared with Q4FY20 largely due to prolonged lockdown across the country consequent to pandemic COVID-19.

Q1 Fiscal year 2021 vs. Previous Quarters
The Lanjigarh refinery produced 476,000 tonnes of alumina in Q1FY21, 7% higher as compared to Q1FY20 and flat as compared to Q4FY20 due to plant debottlenecking. Improved captive alumina production and higher mix of locally sourced bauxite are key to driving our aluminium costs lower. The Lanjigarh refinery continues to operate at over 1.8 mtpa production run rate. The Odisha Mining Corporation production operates its bauxite mine with production run rate of 3.0 Mtpa, with bauxite supplies to Lanjigarh refinery as per state policy.
Aluminium production in Q1FY21 was at 469,00 tonnes. The Line 4 of Jharsuguda Smelter II continues to be under evaluation.
All our refinery, smelter & power plant operations for Aluminium have adapted to newer external conditions due to COVID-19 impact, across our in-plant operations and supply chain. We continue to dynamically alter our product mix to meet our customer requirements. Coal continues to be a key focus area for management. We have signed the Coal Mines Development and Production Agreement with Government of India for the Jamkhani coal block. This will improve our coal security and availability, and therefore help to drive our costs down.
