Jaypee Associates, a construction and energy company, could consider mobilizing close to $500 million through equity sale in Jaiprakash Power Ventures (JVPL) in 2011. JP Associates, the holding company for power is adequately funded for executing projects till October 2011. JP Associates could also look at opportunities to refinance debt.

The company would like to bring down the debt-equity ratio of the company to less than 1.5 from 2 currently. The company expects the ratio to decline as power projects go on stream and the new cement capacity takes the total output to 37 million tonne.

Jaypee Associates has total debt of close to 35,000 crore. The average cost of borrowing is close to 10%. The company’s revenue growth will be driven by the EPC and cement businesses. The company’s EPC order book was 60,000 crore. In case of cement, the sector would continue to see consolidation and Jaypee Associates could be a consolidator.

The company is looking to increase the total cement capacity to 37.2 MT by the end of March 2012 from 22.5 million tonne currently. The company also expects installed power generation capacity to go to 7,800 mw over the next five years from 700 mw currently. The company expects to invest over 30,000 crore in power projects over the next 5 years.
