LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION
History:
Subject was incorporated on
10th March 1958 at Mumbai in Maharashtra having Company Registration
Number 11041.
The company was set up with a
capital of Rs. 11.500 millions contributed in a 60:40 ratio by CEAT (Cavi
Electric Affini Torino) of Turin, Italy, and the Investment Corporation of
India (A TATA Group Company). Its’
first tyre rolled out from its factory at Bhandup in Maharashtra on February
22, 1960. By the end of that year, the rapidly expanding workforce consisting
of 200 workers, produced a total of 45,246 tyres. Today, company's total
production per annum is close to 6 million units, making the company among the
top 20 tyre companies in the world.
Over the past few years, the company has restructured by divesting loss
making non-core businesses of glass fibber, NTCF and photocopiers. The company divested its other business viz.
nylon tyre cord division and fibreglass plant and now consolidating its
position through takeovers and joint ventures.
The flagship of the RPG
group, manufactures steel-belted radials for passenger cars. The various range
of tyres manufactured are marketed under “Ceat”, “Samrat” and “Secura” brand
names.
With the amalgamation of

CEAT'S PERFORMANCE:
The year 2004-05 was a mixed year for the tyre industry. The industry, both in
India and internationally, saw encouraging growth in demand, led mainly by the
boom in the automobile sectors. The Indian tyre industry benefitted from growth
in demand, particularly from the OE segments and two-wheeler markets.
On input costs, however, the industry was confronted with multiple challenges.
Prices of crude oil rose by more than 40% during the year. Growing demand from
emerging economies like China and India and the continuing uncertainty over the
security situation in producing nations have caused an all time high spurt in
crude prices. The prices of major crude
derivatives, including nylon and carbon black also rose in tandem. The widening
supply gap in natural rubber, and increase in price of its alternative
synthetic rubber, led to a significant rise in prices of rubber, a major input
for the tyre industry.
CEAT was no exception to these challenges posed by increasing cost of raw materials.
The Company's continued focus on market development and operational
efficiencies have helped in mitigating some of the setbacks. During the year,
CEAT's turnover grew by 8%. This was brought about by improved market share of
premium products, growth in two-wheeler segments, introduction of new tyres in
radial and speciality segments.
Conversion cost efficiency was a focused initiative during the year. The
Company has realized sustainable benefits in conversion efficiencies to emerge
as a low cost producer. Further, the efforts of the 'Total Quality Management'
teams across various levels of the organization have borne rich dividends by
reducing costs across many key activities.
The increased flexibility in manufacturing has also equipped the Company to
meet varying demands of target segments. Simultaneously, the Company has
continued its initiatives in exploring and developing newer sources of raw
materials and re-engineering its products to mitigate the impact of rising
input costs.
EXPORTS
During the year under report, the performance of the Company's export business
was very promising. Exports at Rs. 2730.000 millions were higher by 26% over
the previous year which entitled the Company to an additional benefit under the
Target Plus Scheme of the Foreign Trade Policy 2004-09.
Apart from consolidating its position in existing markets, CEAT has opened up
new markets in the Middle East and Latin America. A significant portion of the
incremental revenue came from speciality tyres segment where CEAT has unique
capabilities and expertise.
ASSOCIATED CEAT-KELANI VENTURE
During the period under report, Associated CEAT Kelani venture in Sri Lanka
recorded improved performance. Sales grew by 17% from SL Rs. 2322 million to SL
Rs. 2713 million. Export growth was 56% powered by rising exports to the Free
Trade Agreement regions and all round world trade. Profit for the year
increased by 153%, rising from SL Rs.32.5 million in the previous year to SL
Rs.82.2 million. A new dual extruder line has been installed and commissioned
which has enabled a significant improvement in product quality. The Company is
poised for further growth in sales and profits, but the extent of growth in
profitability may be tempered by the impact of, rising raw material prices.
