The cost of the Numaligarh bio-ethanol project has almost doubled from the DFR stage.
8And the IRR is stretched and pegged at 11%, just above the hurdle rate. It is not known, as company officials are tightlipped, whether this hurdle rate is after taking into account the various incentives handed out to the North East.
8It is an untested technology, and this is the first fully scaled up model and NRL and India seems to be the petri dish for this technology
8If the IRR falls below double digit, who should be held responsible? A lot of things go on in the name of investing in the North East, and some decisions need to be called out.

With LNG prices are record highs, the highly price sensitive Indian gas industry imports have all but dried up.
8Two terminals are working, all ferrying long term cargoes.
8The rest are running dry.
8This gets us back to the old argument: what is the price level suitable for the Indian appetite?
8It is clearly the price of liquid fuels, such as naphtha and fuel oil, even petroleum coke.
8Anything above that, unless the authorities push a switch like they did in case of the Morbi industrial cluster, is not acceptable to the average Indian furnace owner. 
8And Indian LNG suppliers are also not playing ball: anyone who wants cheaper, long term LNG is now being forced to sign five year deals.

A true account of the gas economy in India will not yield a happy narrative.
8Natural gas consumption fell by about 1 percent in 2011-2019 and the share of gas in India’s primary energy basket fell from its peak of 9.4 percent in 2010 to 6.29 percent in 2019 (share without biomass in total primary energy consumption).
8The COVID impact has made this trend more adverse.

Unlike in the past when Asian LNG market behaviour was the key price setting yardstick, the attention has now moved to the European circuit.
8Because of a string of decisions, Europe today has only a small part of its total demand taken care of by domestic production, leaving it open to machinations by Russia and the uncertainties of a global LNG market under flux.
8How far down the line will gas prices be high? This question is best answered by what happens to the European market.
8So, here is a deep insight into what is going on, and this is a must-read for any gas sector analyst in India
