Biodata

 

Incorporated as a public limited company on 7 May '45 as Kamani Engineering Corporation, KEC International (KECIL) was renamed in Jun.'84. It is engaged in the design and manufacture of power transmission line towers and petrochemicals.  
 
 KECIL's major products are transmission line towers and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). Its major clients include government agencies like SEB's, the NTPC, NHPC, etc.  
 
 The company diversified into cement in 1988 and promoted a cement project through a new company, Indo Nihon Special Cements, in collaboration with Nihon Cement Company, Japan. In 1994-95, Bespoke Finvest became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company. KECIL has tied up with the Vietnamese government for a joint venture. It took over the management of SAE India in Mar.'95. Cetex Petrochemicals, the petrochemicals division of KECIL has been awarded the ISO 9002 certification.  
 
 During 1998-99, the proposed merger of RPG Transmission Ltd with the company was approved by the shareholders in ratio of 85 shares of the company for every 100 shares held in RPG Transmission Ltd and has been cleared by the Delhi High Courts but not approved by the Bombay High Court, accordingly in 1999-2000, the company has gone in appeal against the said order. 
 
 With a long term perspective and in order to mitigate losses and improve competitivenes, the company has embarked upon various measures like rationalisation of assets, sale of surplus properties, closure of unproductive offices and voluntary separation schemes where appropriate. 
 
 The company has commenced execution of projects in Libya, Phillipines, and Lebanon.

The Government has also designed Accelerated Power Development Reforms Programme (APDRP) with an outlay of Rs. 400 billion for the period 2002-2007 to thrust power sector reforms. Its estimated investment in transmission sector is expected to be over Rs. 700 billion. This shows that, there would be significant growth in the power sector and India has the potential to become one of the world's largest markets. The future transmission plan includes creation of transmission highways to conserve right-of-way, construction of additional 60,000 ckm by 2012 in the central sector and construction of additional transmission lines by the State Electricity Boards.  
 
PERFORMANCE 
 
The Turn Around : 
 
The Company has successfully turned around during the financial year 2003-04. Significant steps taken by the Company to achieve the turn around are: 
 
Created a SBU structure with a clear accountability and focus, which is working very effectively. 
 
Interacted continuously with customers, suppliers, bankers and employees. 
 
Embarked upon value chain expansion and made a successful entry into Distribution Sector by winning APDRP orders in Karnataka and West Bengal, Hotline Stringing in Algeria and Satellite/GPR Survey services for the Indian Utilities.

OUTLOOK AND OPPORTUNITIES 
 
With the ongoing power sector reforms, the passage of the Electricity Act, open access to transmission and the relief given to the Power Sector in Interim Union Budget, the overall requirement of transmission lines is expected to go higher and the flow of Domestic orders is expected to continue in the near future. 
 
The profitability from value chain expansion is expected to increase in future demonstrating the success of this strategy. During the year 2004-05, the Company is expecting to achieve a significant growth in turnover and improvement in profitability in view of various measures being taken by the Company. 
 
The Company is going for geographical expansion, exploring new geographical markets. No substantial development is expected in International market this year. However the completion of Iraq Project in a short span of time was a good learning experience for the Company, which would give the Company a competitive advantage in future projects. 
 
The Company has invested in new technologies like tower spotting through PLS CADD; tower testing capabilities, Enterprise Resources Planning (ERP) and knowledge management equipping the Company to deal with the emerging business paradigms. The focus will continue on reducing costs, maintaining a healthy order book and improving margins. 
 
Market players have shown confidence in the Company, which is evident with the market capitalization going up from about Rs. 300 millions in March 2003 to about Rs. 2450 millions in May 2004
