LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

 

Continuing the positive trend, your company has further improved its performance during the year and the profit after tax has risen from Rs.234.000 Millions to Rs.340.3 Millions this year. The trend of the profits and sales turnover for the past few years are summarized in the graph in Page No: 30. 


 
 OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS: 

 Your company maintained the trend of higher production and sales and the capacity utilization were maintained close to 100% for all the process plants. Our achievements in reduction of power and utility consumption are as per the graphs in Page No: 8. 

 
 This year also, utilizing the better market conditions, better selling price, your company increased its sales volume and thus the capacity utilization of all the plants, which resulted in the improved performance for the year. The turnover increased from Rs.3070.000 Millions to Rs.3780.000 Millions and the profit after tax increased from Rs.234.000 Millions to Rs.340.300 Millions. 

 

 


The process of capital reduction after approval of members was taken at the Extraordinary General Meeting on 19th October 2005 has been completed and the necessary orders from the Hon'ble High Court of Madras were obtained on 15th March 2006 and the carried over losses have been fully wiped out. Thus, your company has retained all the profits of Rs.340.300 Millions in the current year. 

 

 

MARKET SCENARIO: 

 The tight supply situation and higher price scenario of both MDI and TDI continued during the current year also. This posed problems in the marketing of the polyol formulations, which to an extent was partly overcome by reformulation of the product and sourcing isocyanate as per the availability. This definitely helped the company to stabilize the sales. However, the product mix got skewed resulting out of the above scenario. 
 
 The company could secure further orders for the specialty products in the system segment including glycols for oil exploration and production. 

 

 


 
 FUTURE OUTLOOK AND NEW PRODUCTS: 

 The use of polyurethanes in India is continuously increasing and markets in most of the segments are growing steadily. It is estimated that the market will double by itself within the next 4 to 5 years. Hence, your company can reasonably be sure that it will be able to maintain its operational performance at current levels and at the same time, the company's focus to increase production and maintain its market share of the enlarged market, will continue. 
 
 The newer product of prepolymers developed to overcome the shortage of MDI has done exceedingly well and it is estimated that this would be of tremendous help to the company in future, whenever such shortages threaten operations. 
 

 

Fixed Assets:

 

 

MPL operates two grass route production facilities at Manali near Chennai to manufacturer Propylene oxide (PO), Propylele Glycol (PG) and polyol. MPL markets its poolyols with isocyanate imported from Japan and TDI prepolymers produced at MPL for meeting the demand from polyurethane industry in India.

MPL is currently producing 27000 MTPA of Propylene Oxide, 14,000 MTPA of Propylene Glycol and 15,000 MTPA of Polyether Polyol And System Polyol.
