LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

History

 

Kerala Chemicals & Proteins (KCPL) is a joint venture between Kerala State Industrial Development Corporation and two renowned Japanese companies - Nitta Gelatin and Mitsubishi Corporation. It produces ossein, a chemical used to manufacture gelatin (mostly for photographic use) and dicalcium phosphate (used in animal feed) from crushed animal bones. It began commercial production in 1979. 

 
 The plant capacity to manufacture ossien was initially 3300 tpa and that of DCP was 6700 tpa. Ossein capacity was increased to 5000 tpa and of DCP to 11000 in 1992-93. In 1993-94, the company undertook a project for liming of ossein. 

 
 In 1995-96, the first phase of the liming project was completed. The company is setting up a unit for the manufacture of 2000-tpa gelatine with the technical collaboration of Nitta Gelatin, Japan. The project cost is Rs 700.000 Millions For the third time in succession, the company received the Top Export Award for Ossein for 1994-95 from CAPEXIL.

   
 During 1996-97, the trial project of Liming Of Ossein was restarted on Feb.'97 with an installed capacity of 5 MT per day, due to delay in the previous year. The Gelatine project is also under implementation due to delay in respect of the land acquired, but since the company has received allotment of 13 acre plot for the project in the KINFRA Export Promotion Industrial Park in Kakkanadu. 

 
 Trial run production of Limed Ossein commenced in Feb.'97 and the construction of the Gelatine Project was completed as per schedule. A new subsidiary by name of Bamni Protiens Private Limited was incorporated in December 1997 with an authorised capital of Rs 30.000 Millions. 

 
 During 1998-99, the company's Ossein division got ISO 9002 certification from KEMA, Netherland. Also 2000MT Gelatin Plant at Kakkanad commenced commercial operation from 8th March, 1999. It was delayed much and the actual project cost came to Rs. 837.300 Millions as against projected cost of Rs. 778.200 Millions. 

 
 The Company's business was adversely affected due to madcow disease in Europe, however the clearance given by the European Union for import with restriction is expected to show some signs of recovery. The company with the help of Collaborators is planning to make investments in Gelatine plants to the extent of Rs.50.000 Millions and is exploring ways and means of raising the requisite funds to maximum advantage including sourcing from Foreign Banks/Institutions.

 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS 

 
 The Gelatin industry has not shown any improvement during the year. The global demand for bone gelatin further reduced due to health scare. As a result the demand for Ossein from M/s. Nitta Gelatin Inc. during the year reduced by 406 MT.

 
 However, the company could increase the Gelatin production and sale with active support of the collaborators and could increase the turnover. 

 
 The market for Dicalcium Phosphate had been stable till January 2006. However, the detection of bird flu disease in Maharashtra during February 2006 has adversely affected the market resulting in considerable reduction in price. The strengthening of rupee against dollar continued during the current year also and the loss to the Company on account of this, compared with average realisation during last year was Rs. 7.500 Millions. The average price of crushed bone increased by 9.12%. The furnace oil price also increased considerably due to the crude oil price increase in the international market and the average increase compared with last year was 17%. The loss to the company on account of the price increase was Rs. 9.038 Millions. 

 
 The Company is making all out efforts to increase the yield and to reduce production cost. They are glad to inform you that teams from two international regulatory agencies - United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) from USA and European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines (EDQM) from Europe inspected the Factory and certified compliance. Their products are already being sold in USA and some countries in Europe. These certifications will help the company's product to get

 
 wider access in the Europe and US markets in the coming years. 

 
 The Company sold 1814 MT of Gelatin in the export markets such as Japan, Iran, USA, Singapore, Sri Lanka and Canada and 745 MT in the domestic market. Altogether, the turnover increased by 10.42%. The financial results of the year's operations vis-a-vis that of the previous year are given at the beginning of the report. 
 
 BAMNI PROTEINS LIMITED 

 
 The annual production during the year was 3.54% higher than the previous year. However, due to increase in furnace oil cost and cost of coal the subsidiary company incurred a loss of Rs.4.123 Millions.


 The Directors' Report, Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss Account of Bamni Proteins Limited for the year 2005-06 is attached as required under Section 212 of the Companies Act, 1956. 

 
 The Company has become a Sick Industrial company as per the provisions of Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act, 1985. 

 

COLLABORATORS 
 
 The Collaborators continue to provide their wholehearted support to the Company. 

 
 M/s. Nitta Gelatin Inc., the technical and financial Collaborators, purchased 4,00,000 Equity Shares from M/s.  Mitsubishi Corporation, during the year. Their total share participation is now 42.95%. There is, however, no change in the total holding of the Foreign Collaborators. 

 

 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT 


 THE STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS IN THE GELATIN/OSSEIN INDUSTRY 


 Kerala Chemicals and Proteins Limited has been producing Gelatin, Ossein and Dicalcium Phosphate. Ossein is sold to the collaborators. Gelatin caters to the demand of photo, food and pharmaceutical industry, both in the domestic and international markets. 

 
 SEGMENT-WISE PERFORMANCE 

 
 Exports 
 
 5-6% growth is estimated in the world-wide Gelatin market. The demand for Pharmaceutical Grade Gelatin is increasing and they expect to increase their exports in this segment. Eventhough the introduction of digital technology has had an impact on the demand of Photographic Grade Gelatin, they have been able to sustain their sales in this market segment last year. They expect to continue their sales in the segment in the coming years. However the volumes are expected to reduce in a phased manner. 

 
 During 2005-06, they have successfully faced two every important international regulatory inspections conducted by USFDA and EDQM. The outcome of these inspections will give a further impetus to their export business. 
 
 The year 2005-06 witnessed a further reduction of the Ossein exports to M/s. Nitta Gelatin Inc., due to reduced demand of Gelatin in their markets. However, the fact that NGI has already confirmed an increased off-take of Ossein during the current year, indicates that the international Gelatin market is on the recovery path. 
 
 They have been earnestly trying to increase the market spread for DCP by exploring new export possibilities. 
 
 Domestic 
 
 Gelatin 

 
 The demand for Hard Capsule and Soft Capsule Grade Gelatin was steady during 2005-06 and is expected to increase in the current year. 

 
 Their customers in India continue to use their product mainly for their export production and they are therefore expecting a steady demand in the domestic market. 

 
 DCP 
 
 The Indian Poultry Industry had a very good year until the outbreak of bird flu in February 2006. DCP prices in the domestic market had increased steadily throughout the year. However, from March 2006, as a result of bird flu outbreak the demand and as a result the price have been adversely affected. They expect that it will take 6-12 months for the market to recover. 

 
 Opportunities 
 
 They now have the unique strength of having successfully faced two very important international regulatory inspection and they therefore expect that the increased confidence of their overseas customers will result in increased demand for their Gelatin. 

 
 Their product has the advantage of being well accepted in terms of quality and regulatory compliance. They therefore expect to increase their presence both in the export and domestic markets. 

 
 Threats 
 
 There has been a substantial increase in the production volumes of Pork Skin Gelatin. The increased availability of this type of Gelatin is likely to adversely affect the demand of Bovine Bone Gelatin. Also Gelatin alternatives such as HPMC and starch based products pose a strong threat to the future of the industry. Conventional photography is making way to digital photography and a steady decline in this market segment has to be anticipated. 
 
 Outlook 
 
 They are now shifting their focus towards Pharmaceutical Grade Gelatin. With the growing demand in the overseas and domestic market for this grade, they expect an increase in the pharmaceutical grade business during 2006-07. Eventhough the photographic market is on the decline they will be in a position to maintain their sales volume in this segment. 

 
 Ossein exports are expected to increase in 2006-07. The impact of bird flu is expected to die down by September 2006 and thereafter the DCP market is likely to improve. 

 

Financial Performance 

 
 Turnover increased by 10.43% to Rs.976.400 Millions during the year ended 31st March 2006 as compared to Rs. 884.100 Millions during the previous year. 

 
 The Gross profit (earnings before interest, depreciation, taxes and write back) for the current year was Rs.62.400 Millions as against Rs. 64.700 Millions in the previous year. The operating profit (including other income) was Rs.31.700 Millions as against Rs.41.800 Millions in the previous year. 

 
 The interest expenses and depreciation for the current year was Rs.29.200 Millions and Rs. 69.700 Millions as against Rs.20.700 Millions and Rs.65.700 Millions of the previous year.
