Performance
Indian economy after showing an impressive GDP growth of 8.1 % in the first
half year of 2005-06, had a slow down in the second half of the year, and the
overall GDP growth is estimated to be 7.5% to 8%. The global steel industry
continued its march with another year of strong growth. Refractories Industry
also grew during the year, benefiting from this growth.
The year 2005-06 has been another record-breaking year for the operations of
their Company in terms of achieving highest ever revenues, production, sales
and exports as well as profits before and after taxes. It has also successfully
retained its leadership position as the country's largest refractories
manufacturer. The financial results demonstrate the effectiveness of their
strategies in this regard.
The Company's total revenues grew to Rs.4600 Millions from Rs.4040 Millions in
the previous year, registering a growth of 14%. The Company sold 207906 t. of
refractories (2004-05: 194504 t), an increase of 7% over the previous year. The
profit before taxes rose to Rs. 520 Millions against Rs. 470 Millions in the
previous year (an increase of 11%) and profit after taxes rose to Rs.350
Millions against Rs.290 Millions last year (an increase of 21 %). During the
year, prices of raw materials and fuels continued the previous year's rising
trends. Despite unprecedented increases in major input costs, the Company could
not realize higher prices for its finished products due to the threat of
imports, mainly from China. Therefore the excellent performance of the year was
once again obtained from high operational efficiencies resulting in enhanced
production and productivity levels, richer product mix, quality and process
improvements, efficient finance management, aggressive cost reduction
etc.
Exports
The initiatives pursued by the Company to establish a meaningful presence in
overseas markets have proved to be fruitful. The record breaking highest ever
exports of Rs. 510 Millions achieved during the year (compared to Rs. 370
Millions in the previous year - an increase of 38%) are a testimonial to these
efforts. Their exports account for over 20% of the total retractories exported
from India and cover 35 countries. The Company is aggressively pursuing a
policy of enhancing its export volumes.
Modernization and Expansion
The modernization and expansion programme, undertaken from the year 2003-04 in
order to increase production capacity as well as improve quality and
productivity and thus become globally competitive, has progressed well. The
Company has incurred a capital expenditure of Rs. 1640 Millions so far on this
programme. The total cash outflow for capital expenditure during the year is
Rs.1000 Millions and projects worth Rs. 490 Millions were completed and
commissioned. Major facilities commissioned during the year are:
v Binder Plant,
v Rotary Kiln-II in Dolomite Department,
v Packaging System in Dolomite Department,
v Shuttle Kiln in the Silica Department,
v High Temperature Tunnel Kiln Automation and
v 2-T Inclined Mixer Machines.
Other facilities will commence operations during the current
year.
Finance
As mentioned in previous year's report, the Authorised Share Capital of the
Company has been increased to Rs. 250 Millions. Last year 99,00,000 fresh
equity shares of Rs. 10/- each were issued to the existing shareholders on
Rights basis at a premium of Rs. 75/- per share. The Rights issue of shares was
fully subscribed, and these shares were allotted during the year under review.
Consequently, the Paid-up capital of the Company, as on 31st March, 2006, is
Rs.209.000 Millions compared to Rs.110 Millions in the previous year.
To part finance the expansion and modernization projects, the Company has
availed term loans of Rs.46 Millions during the year. As a result, the total
borrowings during the year have increased to Rs. 91 Millions against Rs. 58
Millions of the previous year.
Subsidiary Companies
The Company has formed TRL Asia Private Limited, a Special Purpose Company in
Singapore, which in turn has formed a Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise (WFOE) in
China in the name of TRL China Limited. At present TRL Asia Private Limited is
