LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

 

History:

 

Incorporated as Uttam Galva Steels in Mar.'85, the company commenced operations in Apr.'85. Its name was changed to Uttam Steel (VSL) in May '93

  
In technical collaboration with John Lysaght, Australia, it set up an unit in the Raigad district of Maharashtra to manufacture 35,000 tpa of galvanised plain / corrugated (GP/GC) sheets. This Rs 188.000 Millions  plant started production in Jan.'88. USL set up a captive plant to manufacture 50,000 tpa of thin gauge cold-rolled strips.

  
In Oct.'93, USL came out with a public issue to part-finance the Rs 1015.000 Millions  expansion plan to expand capacity for CR coils from the present 50,000 tpa to 1,00,000 tpa. This went on stream in Mar.'95. Around 70% of the company's production is used in industrial sheds in rural areas, and the rest by the engineering industry. 


The company has received a Certificate of Approval under ISO 9002 for quality management for its continuous Galvanising Line at Khalapur. Company also received Regional Export Excellence Award from Dept. of Commerce & Trade.

Director Report -

 

OPERATIONS: 
 
The Company has achieved turnover of Rs. 18970.600 millions as against Rs.21561.100 millions during the previous year. The Company has recorded Profit before Tax of Rs. 816.600 millions as against Rs. 1027.200 millions during the previous year. 
 
Sales Turnover during the year is lower, mainly due to drastic fall in the prices of HR Coils. To large extent Company has been able to make up for the price reduction by changing the product mix and improving its share in high value added steel products. 
 
 Production of CR Coil during the year has been higher by more than 10% over the last year. 


The Company is pursuing very ambitious growth plans to increase its capacity and diversify product base. This will significantly improve the profitability in coming years and will enable the Company to thrive in any downturn in Steel cycle due to better product mix and lower long term costs. 


 
 Owing to expansions and importance of timely executions of projects, the Board is of opinion that cash flow should not be disturbed and hence has decided to plough back earnings for the time being and not to recommend the dividend payout. 
 
  EXPORTS: 

 

 The gross export turnover has gone down by 27% i.e. to Rs. 10539.400 millions compared to Rs.14421.700 millions during the previous year mainly due to steep fall in HR Coil prices in the International Markets consequently reduction in selling price of CR & GP/GC. Further the Company took a conscious decision to sell more in domestic market due to better sales realization, 
 
 The Company foresees volatile demand for steel worldwide and will therefore continue to focus both on exports and domestic market and dynamically shift focus depending on market conditions in order to maximize profitability. 


  MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS: 


 
 Pursuant to Clause 49(IV)(B) & (F) of the Listing Agreement the Directors wish to report as follows: 


 
 a. Industry Structure and Development: 


  The market dynamics are in constant flux and global outlook in short term is unpredictable. However, dynamic planning, value added product mix and continuous efforts to control costs will ensure our progress in years to come. 


 
 b. Opportunities and Threats: 


 Opportunities exist with the increase in higher value added steel consumption on a steady growth path in the country and the expectation of strengthening of the Indian economy. However, the Indian Steel Industry is a still primarily export based. 
 
 c. Segment-wise Performance: 


 
 Since the Company operates only in one Segment, Segment wise or product wise analysis or performance is not applicable. 
 
 d. Outlook: 


 The long term outlook for the industry and consequently for the Company is stable and reasonably good. Demand for our products will grow continuously as infrastructure, construction, Automobiles and White Goods Industries are doing well globally.
