GAMMON Brief History

104 years ago Mr. J.C. Gammon a Mathematical Scholar and Civil Engineer was assigned a job to construct the Gateway of India while he was employed as an Assistant Engineer in the Public Work Department. He left his current employment and formed M/s. J.C. Gammon to carry out the task of the 1^st Monument Structure the Gateway of India and thus the Company was formed. He had a vision and foresight for the need of the country. Mr. Gammon an excellent Engineer, Innovator and Entrepreneur responsible for solid foundation of the great Institute which was later known as Gammon India Ltd.

Most of the Architectural structures in the fort area of Mumbai City were the early landmark achievements of Gammon India Ltd. The work which was accomplished by the pre-casting concrete was introduced by Gammon in the country, due to which the Company was aptly called the Sculptor of Concrete in India.

The reign of the Company gradually fell in the hands of Indian, Late Dr. T.N. Subba Rao, a Legend in the Civil Engineering who has carried forward technology and the innovation in civil engineering and gave Gammon a very respectable place in the history of Indian Construction Industry in 70s.

Around 1990 a young Entrepreneur, Mr. Abhijit Rajan took the reign of Gammon in his professional hands. Realizing the potential of the Company and understanding the magnitude, he carried forward aggressively the expansion of the Company. Till the time Mr. Rajan took over , the Companys concentration was only on Civil Engineering projects. Post his acquisition, the Company expanded in the field of manufacturing, transmission, oil business and cross-country pipeline in addition to core civil engineering business.

By 2000, the Companys CAGR exceeded 25% and ROCE by 20% and resulted in Gammon being the only Company with a consistent dividend payout for over 30 years. By 2008, Gammon was among the largest infrastructure companies in India with a revenue of over Rs 2500 crore, net worth of over Rs 1000 crore, a debt/equity ratio of just 0.39:1 and a market cap of more than Rs. 4200 crores.

Gammon was looking at opportunities to expand its presence in burgeoning Indian power sector. Gammon had a strong legacy of credentials in power sector across thermal, hydro and nuclear power plants in the field of civil work including tunnels, intake well, dams, and specialized work like cooling towers, chimneys, etc., Gammon decided to become a "one stop energy shop" in power sector by expanding presence across entire energy value chain. This was done by combining existing civil EPC capability in power with manufacturing and supply of power equipment, transmission & distribution and operations and maintenance capabilities across thermal, hydro, nuclear and non-conventional forms of energy. By doing this Gammon would become eligible for bidding and executing mega turnkey projects in rapidly growing and large supercritical thermal power projects.

Gammon has completed over 2000 projects of small, medium and large scale covering majority states and districts of the country in its first 100 years. Gammon has delivered 20 Infra projects to the Nation in its first 100 years. Only one or two Companies during the period have achieved such record. Gammon recognized as Builders to the Nation by developing all types of infrastructure projects all over the country and also in several other countries.

It is to the credit of Gammon India Limited that it has brought all the modern technologies first time in India like prestress, Precast concrete, Segmental Construction, hyperbola cooling tower, slip form technology, inclined Tunnelling, concrete and Cable stay Bridge etc.

Slowdown of Economy and its effects on Gammon

During FY2012 and FY2013, Gammons financial performance suffered on account of slowdown in the economy, delay in award of new projects and project execution delays. The working capital cycle of Gammon was also stretched due to nonachievement of milestones and delayed recovery of receivables. Gammon also invested in overseas subsidiaries and noncore assets by way of loans and advances or equity. The subdued market conditions could not yield the desired returns on overseas investments and the interest cost on acquisitions added to the stress of Gammon. GIL was not able to meet its debt obligations to its lenders. Hence, GIL referred itself under the aegis of CDR Cell for restructuring of its debt in March 2013.

As planned, cash flows could not be materilised and proposed CDR failed.The company had haived off its major core businesses and resolved 75% of lenders dues.

The residual Companys operations have been affected in the last few years by various factors including liquidity crunch, unavailability of resources on timely basis, delays in execution of projects, delays in land acquisition, operational issues etc. The Companys operations are characterized due to weak order booking, paucity of working capital and uncertain business environment. The liquidity crunch has resulted in several winding up petitions being filed against the Company by various stakeholders for recovery of the debts which the Company has been settling as per the mutually agreed repayment terms. The liquidity crunch is affecting the Companys operation with increasing severity. The Secured lenders have recalled the various facilities, initiated recovery suits in the Debt Recovery Tribunals as well as filing a winding up petition with the National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai bench under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy code. It only increased further in the quarter. The facilities of the Company with the Secured lenders are presently marked as NPA since June 2017. The liquidity crunch has resulted in several winding up petitions being filed against the Company by various stakeholders for recovery of the debts which the Company has been settling as per the mutually agreed repayment terms.

Revival Plan

Pursuant to the execution of the ICA the lenders appointed M/s Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India LLP as Process Advisory (PA) in the resolution process of the Company. Subsequent to the abovementioned appointment the representatives of Deloitte attended one of the Joint Lenders Meeting held on 13th January, 2020, wherein the plans regarding the way forward on the resolution process were presented. Subsequently on the recommendation by Deloitte the Company signed an engagement letter with Duff and Phelps (D&P) to carry out the valuation of the Company and estimation on the recoverability of arbitration claims of the Company and on such terms and conditions as directed by IDBI Bank.

In furtherance to the execution of the ICA, the Company submitted a draft resolution plan to the consortium of lenders. Pursuant to the submission of the resolution plan, Seven lenders including the lead monitoring institution provided their in-principle sanction to the company. Due to delay in approval of resolution plan by other Bankers the fund through which Everstone (Investor) was intended to invest was closed.

Due to time constraint, Gammon has proposed an alternate investor with the same terms and conditions for the revival of the Company which is accepted by the Bankers. The lenders discussed the above matter at the Joint Lenders meeting dated 5th March 2022. The top Management of few lenders were not in agreement for the time period proposed in the resolution Plan. As a result, resolution plan remains unconcluded. In the meantime, some of the lenders assigned their debt to Asset reconstruction companies along with security. More than 50% of the debt has been assigned to Asset reconstruction companies by the lenders. The Company is negotiating with other lenders/ Bankers & ARC for reaching out for a resolution. The Company is presently pursuing remaining banks for one-time settlement. The management is hopeful of obtaining settlement from rest of the banks. This is being done on the basis of a potential investor. The Company expects the remaining bankers to follow suit on similar lines. The Company has had positive discussions with the ARC companies and is hopeful of a resolution fructifying with them.

Group Sofinters Consolidated Financial Statements include the financial statements of Sofinter S.p.A (the parent of the companies over which it exercises control directly or indirectly, from the date on which control was acquired upto the date on which it ceases. Operations in 2025 were largely dominated by Macchi since the market for new orders for AC Boilers remained difficult due to external factors.Execution of Macchi units was robust and exceeded the budget but Projects of AC Boilers continued to lag impacting timely execution and resulting in cost overruns.The consolidated revenues of the Group were Euro252 Million resulting in a consolidated loss of Euro 7.5Million.Due to continuing losses the net worth of the Group has eroded by over two-thirds thereby mandating further immediate infusion of equity capital under Article 2446 of the Italian Civil Code from the exising shareholders or by infusion from external sources.

The shareholders of Sofinter resolved to offer the required amount of approximately Euro 14 million between themselves in proportion to their respective holdings and in the event Gammon could not contribute to the same,the majority shareholder Nova Energy undertook to make good the shortfall of Gammon.With this action,the Group could finalise and implement the composition with the creditors and also sign the long term agreement with the Italian Banks.

The company is in discussion with ICICI Bank & Exim for the possibility of Investment by Gammon since they are the original lenders to SPV companies of Gammon India Limited namely Gammon International BV and Gammon Holdings (Mauritius) Limited who are in tern shareholders of Sofinter S.p.A. In case Gammon opts out of the payment, Nova Energy will pay the same and Gammons shareholding in Sofinter will drop from 10% to 8.33% at a valuation carried out by the Board of Sofinter from a third party of approximately Euro 66 million.

Should dilution of Gammon take place, it will not result in any dilution of its rights under the existing Shareholders Agreement with Nova.

Franco Tosi Meccanica S.p.A. (In Extraordinary Administration): As pointed out in previous years, with the transfer of the operational assets in all respects having been completed to Bruno Presezzi S.p.A, the Commissioner has started the second phase of disposing of the non-core assets of the Company. These primarily comprise of approx 60 acres of land in Legnano, Milan, buildings and some equipment within. Even piece-meal sale of the land is proving to be a challenge in light of continuing limitations in the Italian economy in general. During the year 2023,the Commissioner for Liquidation of FTM obtained from the local civic authority in charge of land, a change in the end usage of this land possibly to improve its overall sale potential and price. The impact of the same will be known in the coming years. Meanwhile creditors in order of ranking and their dues continue to be negotiated by the administrator and are paid off to the extent of amounts received from the disposal of the assets as and when these materialize. This process of creditor pay-outs will continue till such time all the land is sold in the coming years.

Campo Puma Oriente S.A.(Puma Oil Block): The Puma Oil Block is located in Ecuadors Oriente Basin in the Orellana Province east of Quito with an area of 162 square Kms. The Block was part of the second international marginal field bidding round and the contract was signed in March 2008 for a 20 year term with Consorcio Pegaso comprising two Companies, namely Campo Puma Oriente S.A. (CPO) with 90% share and Joshi Technologies Inc. with the balance 10%. Gammon India Limited has a 73.80% share in CPO corresponding to 66.40% share in Consorcio Pegaso. Initially, the contract was production sharing, but in February, 2011, it was changed to a service contract for an 18 year term. The remaining oil recovery from the existing Puma field is approximately 14.3 million barrels, excluding probable and possible reserves. There are 11 operational wells in the Puma Block. However, as reported in the previous years, the field remains closed as all wells continue to be capped due to the inability to perform much needed interventions including water injections, artificial lift etc. as also additional CAPEX. In the absence of executing these procedures due to the impossibility to fund the same on account of the on-going restructuring being undertaken in Gammon there has been no progress in this direction prompting the Ministry of Hydrocarbons, Ecuador to invoke various stringent provisions under the Contract citing breaches and seeking termination.
