Mudajaya Group Bhd said the fourth and final unit of its long-delayed coal-fired thermal power plant in India has achieved its commercial operation date (COD).
Slightly more than a year ago, Mudajaya Corp disposed of a 7.07% stake in RKM to Apollo Ventures Co Ltd for US$19.5 million, reducing its stake in the Indian independent power producer to 18.93%.
The power plant has a total capacity of 1,440 mW, comprising four generating units of 360 mW each.
Shares of Mudajaya Group settled unchanged today at 31 sen. The stock has lost 58% of its value over the past one year, to now have a market capitalisation of RM182.86 million.

“Hence, no further share of losses in RKM was recognised in the current quarter,” it added.
Mudajaya has reported quarterly losses since 2QFY16, mainly dragged by its independent power plant (IPP) investment in India.
“The investment in the IPP in India via the group's 26% associate RKM continues to pose challenges to management even though all four units of the IPP development have achieved commercial operation status.
There is some reprieve for the group's balance sheet resulting from the net carrying amount of RKM in the group's books having been fully adjusted to nil from prior share of losses; hence, there is no further equity accounting for RKM losses from this quarter onwards,” said Mudajaya.
The group said it is currently working on a proposed resolution plan with its lenders, and that the conditional share sale and purchase agreement it signed for the proposed 7.07% stake disposal is pending fulfilment of certain conditions precedent.
It said to date, RKM is supplying up to 350 MW power to several power distribution companies in the State of Uttar Pradesh and has also entered into a pilot agreement for the procurement of power with PTC India Ltd for the supply of 550 MW power from Units II and II for a period of three years.
“These contracts are expected to contribute positively to RKM's results upon the eventual commencement of power sales,” Mudajaya added.
“When Kuo approached Mudajaya, he wanted to ensure the continuity of the company’s key personnel and to instil more confidence in shareholders, that was why myself and Eric were offered the stake [through Chamber Jewels]. And once the restructuring exercise is out of the way, Mudajaya’s focus will be on selling power. The power purchase agreements (PPAs) are all in place, with just some documentation left,” he says.
Mudajaya is hoping to start selling power soon from the second, third and fourth units of its coal-fired thermal power plant in India, Wong says, which is being undertaken by RKM Powergen Pvt Ltd in which Mudajaya owns an 18.93% stake. The fourth and final unit of the plant achieved its commercial operation date in March.
Mudajaya will also work on strengthening its balance sheet and reducing its gearing to a reasonable level, which could use some help from Kuo, apart from the proceeds from its private placement exercise that is expected to be completed by year-end.
“Mudajaya has done a lot of good work over the last few years. Although it was difficult, with India being a big challenge, the company is turning a corner on our India [investment] now. From there, it will be plain sailing,” Wong says.
The company is so screwed. I already said so 2 years ago despite so called power plants business generating great profit soon. some idiots shamelessly promote it like no tomorrow. One of them particularly standout:
Apr 8, 2017 2:25 PM | Report Abuse Lets track this company share since the king promoter of mudajaya aka charlessT blowng his trumpet asking all and sundry to sell jaks and buy his favorite company mudajaya. He claimed he is doing a "noble intention" !
31/3/17 RM0.985 quiet time without promoter 05/4/17 RM1.21 King promoter aka CharlessT emerged blowing trumpet asking all to sell jaks and buy his favorite stock mudajaya 06/4/17 RM1.19 King promoter continued blow his trumpet and sing the same song 07/4/17 RM1.15 suddenly the trumpet music stopped
Waiting to be able to start selling power...that's in the QR...some here already took position earlier than that....also when after news of new major shareholder emerged....Mudajaya has become a promising stock with bright future...their total write off of their RKM losses and small profit in latest QR confirmed their turnaround.
Now, we are finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel. But exactly how much profit can we expect from the IPP project ?
According to an article dated 3 March 2014 in The Star, Mudajaya's CEO expected the IPP project to contribute approximately RM70 mil to Group profit. Was he referring to EBITDA, PBT or net profit ? If I am not wrong, according to accounting standard, associate contribution is booked in at Net Profit level. As such, it is likely that the RM70 mil is referring to net profit (Accountants please chip in here).
However, there is still one loose end to be tied up. Over the past 18 months, currencies have been on a roller coaster ride. How would that affect the IPP project's contribution to Mudajaya ? The 3 March 2014 article shedded some light on this issue as well.
First of all, let's have a feel of the movement of Rupee vs Ringgit. When James Wong mentioned that Rupee was weak, it was back in March 2014. During that time, one Rupee can get you 0.053805 Ringgit.
However, in 2015, Ringgit has depreciated substantially against the Rupee (Malaysia is a net oil exporter while India is a net oil importer). As at 24 December 2015, one Rupee can buy 0.064287 Ringgit, 19% more.
There is one more hurdle to clear. India does not have a strong power equipment manufacturing industry. As such, it is likely that the IPP needs to import the equipment and parts. We have all known by now that if you import anything, you need to pay US Dollars. Bearing in mind that the Rupee has depreciated against the US Dollars, how much USD debt does the IPP have ? Will all the advantge gained from strengthening of Rupee vs Ringgit be offset by the Rupee vs USD depreciation ?
Luckily, according to the 3 March 2014 article, both the IPP's revenue and debt are denominated in Rupee.
It seemed that we have a winner - no USD adverse impact, but strong Rupee will boost profit contribution to Mudajaya. Nice.
...................
The reason management forecasted RM 100 Million is likely due to the exchange rate movement and higher tariff in India currently as explained on my postings above
“The outstanding challenges that remain will be to secure a PPA (power purchase agreement) for Unit IV and its associated working capital,” said Wong.
He expects further share of losses in the next two financial quarters in the Indian operation. The losses are mainly from depreciation and interest cost of the completed units but have yet to commence power sales.
“Notwithstanding this, we remain confident that the IPP project in India will generate positive results once power sales from all four units commence in the near future,” he said.
Do not miss this stock this time.. If you have money, doing nothing in the bank, better buy this stock... This time sky is turning clearer for this stock... Then do not sell fast, keep it.. Slowly earnings will be ok, there will be some up and downs, so be strong.. But not that bad.. This stock is very weird and funny..

Between Jaks and Mudajaya, i join Mudajaya. Why? below is my own thinking and comparison of these 2 companies Mudajaya has gone through night mare and hardship in power business so now it should be very strong player. Another key reason is Mudajaya they really have the technical know how to build and run IPP, look at their BOD expertise background. Without RKM investment, they are doing well with double digit margin.
Any TA expert here.. Technical analysis here,, what are the support levels for mudajaya at the moment???? What are the best entry points, at the moment for mudajaya, if want to buy??? It s good for newbie s so they won t buy expensive
Without RKM investment, they are doing well with double digit margin. Investment has its risk. God knows India has such regulations. After impair the power plant, the company's PL looking +ve
Where is the king of promoter CharlesT? He used to ask everyone include their dogs to buy when the price was around MYR1.00.. He should come out again now with more forceful promoting since the price is now double down at MYR0.52 ! Pity
By 2021, this stock should be over 1.00...or could be sooner...the new major shareholder has yet to secure biz for them...contracts should start rolling in from Taiwan this year plus contracts from local projects...and then there is India too.
Congratulations to those who have bought Mudajya @ 0.185 - 0.19 during end of Sept 2019 - beginning of Oct 2019 when some commented Mudajya was laden with huge debts and bad management. You have unrealised profits of 200 %.
