LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

History

 

Established in 1946, Bharat Bijlee manufactures electric motors and transformers. It has technical collaboration with Siemens, Germany, to manufacture transformers. It also has the capacity to manufacture 450 lifts for which it has a tie-up with Inventio, a Swiss multinational which is the second largest manufacturer of lifts in the world. The company's products are sold under Olympus-Schindler brand name.


 
 The company's manufacturing facilities at Kalwa, near Bombay, are equipped with modern special-purpose automatic machinery and sophisticated meteorological test-field and quality-control equipment. Its products are marketed and serviced through its nation-wide network of registered and branch offices. The company has an active R&D centre recognised by the Department of Science & Technology. In September.'95, it issued bonus shares (1:1). 

 
 The company won the award for the best stall at ELECRAMA 96, an exhibition organised at Bombay by the Indian Electrical and Electronics Manufacturers Association during Jan.'96. 

 
 The projects division successfully completed a substation for a cogeneration power plant during the year and is looking forward to more orders from this sector. A modern Digital Drive which will be introduced during the current year is expected not only to improve their position in the Sugar Industry,but to open up a market for new applications. The expansion project of the transformer at Kalwa,was successfully completd. The investment cost has been increased by Rs.3 crores.

 

OPERATIONS: 
 
 During the year under review, income from Sales and Services grew by Rs.669.000 Millions from Rs.2748.000 Millions to Rs. 3417.000 Millions, a growth of 24%. Orders received during the year for motors and transformers, the main products of Industrial Product segment, went up by Rs. 867.000 Millions from Rs.2284.000 Millions to Rs.3151.000 Millions, a growth of 38%. 


 
 PBT before exceptional items and tax increased by Rs.220.000 Millions from Rs.264. 000 Millions to Rs.484. 000 Millions, a rise of 84%. Motors and Transformers the principal products of the Industrial Product Segment, contributed to this excellent result. Higher price realisations, an improved product mix in larger volumes, and higher productivity enabled this growth. 


 
 NEW TRANSFORMER PLANT: 


 
 Mr. Jaisingh R Danani, Senior Director of the Company inaugurated PWRLEX, the new Transformer Plant on 22nd March, 2006. This world class state of the art Plant increases the Company's manufacturing capacity to 8000 MVA. 

 

FINANCE: 
 
 The Company has financed capital expenditure and major portion of increased working capital substantially through internal accruals and marginal increase in short terms borrowings. Therefore the financing cost has gone up from Rs.38.000 Millions to Rs.47.000 Millions. The same has been contained at 1.37% of the sales, same as in the previous year. 

 

 

 As on 31st March, 2006, the Company had Fixed Deposits aggregating to Rs.111.540 Millions. Out of the Fixed Deposits which matured for payment prior to 31st March, 2006, 44 deposits aggregating to Rs.1.925 Millions were neither renewed nor claimed till 31st March, 2006. Of these 7 deposits aggregating to Rs.0.355 Millions have since been renewed or refunded on receipt of requests from the deposit holders. The balance of 37 deposits aggregating to Rs.1.570 Millions have been neither claimed nor renewed till date of this Report, inspite of the Company's intimation to the deposit holders. There has been no default or delay in meeting any maturity payment obligations. 
 
 DIVESTMENT OF LIFT OPERATIONS: 


 
 At the 58th Annual General Meeting held on 12th August, 2005, the Chairman had informed the members that receipt of a part of the sale consideration for the Elevator Field Operations Division, as also redemption of certain instruments allotted pursuant to the approved Scheme of Arrangement under Section 391 and 394 of the Companies Act, 1956, was awaiting adjudication in arbitration proceedings undertaken in terms of agreement between the Company and the Transferee Company in whom the Elevator Field Operations Division had so vested. 
 
 A Settlement was reached on 29th August, 2005, through negotiations in which the total consideration was fixed at a sum of Rs.365. 000 Millions covering the agreed aggregate value of Bonds A and Bonds B of Rs.117.500 Millions. 

 
 Out of the total consideration of Rs.365. 000 Millions , the Company had accounted a consideration of Rs. 330.000 Millions in the previous Accounting Year. In the current Accounting Year ending 31st March, 2006, the Company has accounted as an extraordinary item the balance amount of Rs. 35.000 Millions. 

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK: 

 
 Any further significant growth in demand for motors is unlikely but many segments of the user industry are doing well, and hence volumes are likely to be stable during the ensuing year. 

 
 In the 10th 5-year plan about 34000 MW of power generation capacity is expected to be added, predominantly during 2006-2007. In the 11th 5-year plan (2007-2012) 61000 MW of capacity addition is targeted with the Government committed to power reforms and 'Power to all by 2012'. This should translate into a growing demand for power and distribution transformers in their served markets. The unexecuted order book continues to be healthy and the increased demand for power transformers in their served market is expected to be met by optimal utilization of the increased capacity of their new Transformer Plant and de-bottlenecking of the old Transformer Plant, coupled with further streamlining of the planning and supply-chain management processes

Introduction

 

Bharat Bijlee Limited is one of the leaders in the electrical engineering industry in India. A multi-product, multi-division organization, the company operates in two business segments, Industrial Products which comprises transformers, motors and drives; and Contracting, i.e Projects. A pioneer in electrical engineering in the private sector, the company has a reputation for quality which characterises every facet of its activities.

 

History

 

Bharat Bijlee was established in 1946, and pioneered the manufacture of electric motors at a time when most electrical equipment was imported. With the same entrepreneurial spirit the company began manufacturing transformers in 1954. The total personnel strength was then around 100 and the investment of Rs. 0.570 Millions (Rs.570,000) in fixed assets generated sales of Rs. 0.800 Millions  (Rs.800,000).

 

In 1958, a comprehensive technical collaboration for the manufacture of transformers and motors was finalised with Siemens AG. This was to be a long and fruitful partnership. A major new project located at Kalwe, near Bombay, spread over 1,93,000 sq. meters of land and involving large and sophisticated manufacturing facilities was implemented from 1965, and commissioned in phases to Siemens' exacting standards. A heavy plant for the manufacture of large transformers was started, a semi-mechanised foundry installed, and a modem plant with special purpose machinery set up to manufacture motors.

 

In 1972, the company diversified into the manufacture and installation of Olympus elevators. Between 1986 and 1996, a wide ranging technical and financial partnership with Schindler, Switzerland gave Bharat Bijlee ongoing access to state of the art technology in vertical transportation. In 2004, the elevator field operations business was divested to a subsidiary of Kone Elevators India Private Limited

 

The company's transformers and motors were originally marketed by Siemens India. In 1980 Bharat Bijlee undertook a phased take-over of the marketing of these products. The company's own sales and servicing infrastructure dealt directly with utilities and industrial buyers of transformers while its motors were distributed by Cable Corporation of India. In 1990, the company's sales and service network also took over the direct marketing of motors and pumps, and today has an extensive national presence through a cohesive network of sales, after-sales and field offices.

 

Synergistic considerations led to the formation of an independent Projects division which designs, installs and commissions High Tension electrical switchyards and distribution systems on turn-key basis.

 

The Industrial Electronics and Instrumentation division was started to cater to the growing need for specialised industrial drives and control systems. In-house R&D innovation has already led to the successful introduction of several special purpose drive systems.

The plant uses vapour phase drying, vertical and horizontal winding machines, and has been designed for high productivity, lower cycle times and high quality output. With this new best-in-class addition, Bharat Bijlee now has the capacity to manufacture 8000 MVA per annum, placing the Company among the largest transformer manufacturers in the country.



Says Mr. Nikhil J. Danani, Vice Chairman & Managing Director, Bharat Bijlee Limited., “The divestment of their elevator business in 2004 has enabled us to focus more on their core businesses: Motors & Transformers. With PWRLEX, they now have a first of its kind, world-class transformer plant, which will not only triple their current manufacturing capability, but also tremendously drive their overall growth in response to an already existing demand.”



Adds Mr. Danani, " They are also currently exploring possibilities of entry into allied areas of the Transmission and Distribution (High Voltage) market through strategic international alliances and are in talks with potential partners for the same."
