LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

History:

 

Formerly known as Prakash Tubes, subject has two divisions -- the steel division and the lighting division. The steel division, which commenced operations in 1974, manufactures electrical resistance welded (ERW) steel pipes and tubes, and cold-rolled formed sections and profiles, and cold-rolled (CR) strips. The lighting division, operating since 1983, manufactures flourescent tube lamps (FTL), general lighting systems (GLS), glass shells for GLS lamps, tubular glass shells, FTL filaments, GLS filaments, and sodium and mercury vapour lamps. The lamps are sold under the Surya brand. A backward intergration to manufacture lead glass tubings and an expansion of capacities of the lighting division were undertaken in 1993.

 
The company recently completed a project to manufacture halogen lamps and decorative lamps. Its backward integration project to manufacture ribbon glass shells, FTL tube drawing lines, GLS filaments, FTL filaments, GLS caps and GLS chains, is under implementation, out of which two GLS lamp groups, GLS lamp filament and automatic FTL packing machine were completed in 1995-96. The technologies for the above projects are from GB Glass, UK, and Falma, Switzerland. The projects for GLS lamps, GLS filaments, lamp caps and electrostatic coating were also completed in 1995-96, while those for ribbon glass shells and tube drawing projects, will get over in 1998. All the products except ribbon shells are totally for captive consumption.  

 
Subject has also set up a joint venture with Osram, under the name Osram Surya Pvt Limited to manufacture compact flourescent lamps.

 

PROFILE

 

Subject began its journey in the Steel Tubes Industry. It then diversified into manufacture of Lighting products in 1984. The 1990s saw the company implement major expansion and backward integration programs. This resulted not only in the timely availability of good quality raw material but also proved to be immensely cost effective. Today, the Company is the leader in Steel Tubes / Pipes market and the second largest Lighting Company in India.

 

Quality has always been the driving force at Subject. The company succeeded in bench-marking quality and innovation standards by achieving the ISO 9002 in the year 1999. The company was awarded ISO-14001 and OHSAS-18001 certifications related to Environment and Safety respectively. The company continues to be committed towards making quality products, ensuring human as well as environment safety and bringing value addition to the investments of the shareholders. Subject, standing poised towards achieving new heights, is on it's way to becoming one of the leading brands globally.

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

 

Despite competition from other established market players and unorganized sectors, Lighting Division is witnessing steady growth in turnover and profit. The following may impact the market in the coming years:

Small Scale Industry in GLS and FTL

 

The increasing cost of electricity resulting into opting for use of energy saving lamps.

 

Shift from traditional to innovative lamps and systems

 

The management is keeping constant watch on these points to overcome from them.

 

The Steel Tubes industry too witnessed growth during the year under review and the market growing steadily due to the boom in infrastructure sector. The future is likely to see only those companies successful, which have their products priced competitively and to sell their products in the international market. All possible efforts are being made by the company to reduce costs without compromising on the quality of the product and increase the export.

 

SWOT ANALYSIS

 

Strengths :

 

Well focused vision of the Management

Complete backward integration

High quality of products

Nation-wide marketing network

 

Weaknesses :

 

Diminishing margin of profit on the products

Uncertainties of external market forces

 

Opportunities :

 

Potential increase in demand of energy efficient products

Untapped potential in outsourcing and marketing of Luminaries

Increase in demand of regular lighting products with a general improvement in the power condition in urban as well as rural sectors and increase in spending on infrastructure development

 

Threats :

 

Tough competition from multi-national companies

Unbranded products from the unorganised sector

 

SEGMENT-WISE PERFORMANCE :

 

The company is broadly divided into two main segments viz. Steel and Lighting.

 

OUTLOOK :

 

The Government is giving continuous thrust on housing and infrastructure sector where Steel Tubes and Lighting products are used.

 

The existing refineries are expanding their capacities and new refineries are coming into the scene. In future also there seems to be a tremendous scope for export in Cold Rolling as well as ERW Pipes particularly to USA and other European Countries. The government spending on infrastructure development is also expected to increase the demand of pipes every year. With the easy availability of finance and tax incentives, it is expected that housing sector will get a major boost. In view of the same, the long term outlook of the Company remains positive.

 

FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE :

 

The Company was able to maintain itself as a leader in the Steel Tubes industry and as a strong contender in the Lighting industry.

 

INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS AND HUMAN RESOURCE

 

MANAGEMENT:

 

Industrial relations during the year under review were cordial and peaceful. The management wishes to place on record, the excellent cooperation and contribution made by the employees, collectively called "SURYA PARIVAR", at all levels of the organisation to the continued growth of the company.

Various training programs including visionary exercises were conducted for personal as well as professional development of the employees. Further various other activities like annual sports, festival celebrations take place every year to get in touch with them and their families.

 

Relationship has been very cordial with the worker's union for the past several years. During the month of December 2004 the management executed wage agreement with the union, which shall be applicable till 31st December, 2007.

 

The Company's industrial relations continued to be harmonious during the year under review. The number of persons directly employed by the Company was 3511 as on 31st March, 2006.

CORPORATE HISTORY

 

Subject's journey started in 1973 when it set up its steel pipe plant at Bahadurgarh, Haryana(30 kms from Delhi). Today, this plant is one of the largest in Asia, and produces 150000 MT of steel pipes annually.

 

In 1984, subject set up its first factory, for lighting products, at Kashipur (in Nainital, UP). And in 1992, it built another factory at Malanpur (near Gwalior, MP). Both these state-of-the-art lighting plants were accorded the ISO 9002 certification in the 1980s at a time when the Indian industry was not familiar with such innovative concepts.

 

Subject is the only lighting company with 100 per cent backward integration. It manufactures all its components.

This award is in reference to the Malanpur manufacturing unit of the company. With large production capacity, the Malanpur plant stands out as a shining star, striking a balance between nature and technology.

 

The company uses Hydro Based Technology (HBT) which is environmental friendly. HBT uses water as a solvent to suspend Phosphor. Water is used because it is more eco-friendly than chemicals such as Xylene or Butyl Acetate and doesn't make the process detrimental to the health of the workers in the workplace. This is the latest technology in the world. Surya has been using it since its inception.
