INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
Cosmo Films
is in the business of manufacture and sales of BOPP films. World OPP films
market has been growing steadily in past several years. Growth in Asian region
has been the highest.
Indian
domestic BOPP market has been growing @ 12 to 15% per annum. Since per capita
BOPP consumption in India is much lower as compared to Western and other Asian
countries, potential for demand growth is quite high. In view of growth
potential, Cosmo as well as other BOPP manufacturers have expanded capacities.
Since the
present size of domestic market is quite small they have been focusing more to
expand their business in export market.
They have
already achieved full capacity utilization of their latest production line
commissioned in
March 2004.
They are continuously working with various FMCG and other end user companies
for development of new applications of BOPP to expand the market size. Cosmo is
one of the lowest cost BOPP producers in the world and can expand its customer
base by providing cost effective innovative packaging solutions to its
customers.
OPERATIONS & FINANCIAL
PERFORMANCE
Sales
Net sales
during the financial year were Rs. 3907.300 millions. During the FY 2004-05,

to Rs. 1361.400 millions a growth of 28%. Growth has been achieved despite over
capacity in international markets.
Research
& Developments
There is a
continuous thrust on the research & development activity. As a policy, the
Company charges off revenue expenditure on Research & Development in the
Profit and Loss account of the year in which it is incurred. Rs. 23.625
millions have been spent on R & D during the last year.
Provision
for Tax
During the
year Company has made a provision of Rs. 8.000 millions (previous year Rs.
50.100 millions) towards income tax. Besides, Rs. 25.600 millions has been
written back from deferred tax liability.
Profit
after Tax (PAT)
Company has
earned PAT of Rs. 105.800 millions during FY 2004-05 as against Rs. 315.100
millions in previous year. The downward pressure on operating margins is due to
pressure on selling price in market and increase in raw material prices. The
company is continuing its efforts on cost reduction and improvement in product
mix. Due to strong internal cost cutting measures, part of reduction in margin
on account of selling price reduction and raw material price increase have been
arrested.

recommended by the Board of Directors for the year ended 31 ''March, 2005
amounting to Rs. 68.040 millions (Previous Year Rs. 76.380 millions) on equity
share capital.
DEPOSITORY SYSTEM

shares have been notified for compulsory trading in clemat form by SEBI w.e.f.
June 20,2000. Members have the option of holding their shares in clemat form
through any of the depositories by opening account with the authorised depository

OPERATIONS
Due to over
capacity in the industry selling prices have declined considerably. Rise in
interest costs and increase in raw material prices have also caused a concern
during the year. Consequently the financial year ended March 31,2005 has seen
decline in financial performance of the company. Despite internal cost cutting
measures, increase in export sales, significant improvement in quality and
operational efficiencies, net profit aftertax was Rs. 105.800 millions during the
year as compared to net profit of Rs. 315.100 millions in the previous year.

towards exports have been further accelerated. Exports have grown to a level of
Rs. 1361.400 millions during the year as compared to Rs. 1065.300 millions
during the previous year. Cosmo maintains its position of largest BOPP film
