LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

INDUSTRY

 

The chemical industry which had been on a path of high growth since liberalisation, slowed down in FY’97. Year-on-year growth rate in Index of Industrial Production (IIP) for chemical production in FY’96. This slowdown has been attributed to a number of reasons. The overall slowdown in economy, including that of the agriculture sector has bad on impact on the chemical industry. The impact of reforms on the industry has also been severe.

 

The caustic soda industry, with a size of around Rs.36 billion, comprises around 5% of the chemical process industry in India.

 

Caustic soda is manufactured/sold in liquid (lye) or solid (flakes) form. It finds usage in diverse applications such as in the manufacture of paper, alumina, man-made and cotton fibres, soaps/detergents and a host of chemicals. Chlorine is a co-product and for every tonne of caustic soda manufactured, 0.88 tonnes of chlorine is produced. Chlorine is used in a number of applications such as in the manufacture of PVC and several other organic/inorganic chemicals.

 

Soda ash, chemically known as Sodium Carbonate is a versatile inorganic chemical with a wide variety of applications. It is largely used in the manufacture of detergents, silicates and several downstream chemicals. The domestic soda ash industry has been facing the onslaught of imports for quite some time.

 

The industry is likely to continue to be a net importer although imports may be lower in the coming year due to larger capacities in the domestic market. The competitiveness of the industry will be severely tested as import duties on the furnished products come down further and foreign major seek to establish a toehold in the country.

 

BUSINESS

 

Subject is engaged in manufacturing of Organic Intermediates and Optical Brightners.

 

PERFORMANCE:

 

Though the Company achieved higher sales of about 29% as compared to last year, the operations continued to be hit by a meteoric rise in key raw material prices plus utilities like power and water, lower export incentives and weak dollar. Gross PBID improved from Rs. 9.600 Millions to Rs. 10.400 Millions and PBT recorded a modest rise from Rs. 3.100 Millions to Rs. 4.300 Millions.

 

The Company maintained its presence in the International market with several global majors as its valued customers. The Company continues to consolidate its position by entering into long-term contracts with them. In the home markets, Company had to confront severe competition from multinationals, besides cascading impact of lower import tariffs.

 

OUTLOOK:

 

With the current trend sparked by globalization, India has become the centripetal force attracting foreign investments and technology transfers at an accelerated pace. The outlook remains impressive due to resurgence of the industrial sector propelled by buoyant exports and better domestic investment climate which have raised consumer confidence and business optimism.

 

The Directors are pleased to inform you that as referred in the last Annual Report, the Company is still in the process of exploring all possibilities to enter into a tie-up with a strategic Partner and the talks are in progress with some of its reputed customers and have received some positive feedback from them to have a joint venture with their Company.

 

The current order position for exports is to the tune of Rs. 90.000 millions and are hopeful to achieve a growth of approximately 10% in the turnover as compared to the previous year.

 

BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY

 

Business Segment

 

The company is primarily engaged in the manufacturing and selling of Optical Brightening Agents (DBAs) consumed in Textiles Pulp & Paper and Detergent Industries besides Azoic coupling components - Naphthols used in pigment for Paint and Printing Industries. The products are mainly for export, though competition from multinational continue in the domestic markets.

 

SWOT Analysis

 

The Company continues to remain an active player based on the quality certifications from British Standard Institute.     

 

Some of the leading producers in ED are quitting the business of Fluorescent Brightners, thus giving wide opportunities for exports. The management reviews periodically the prescribed policies in respect to environment,

occupational health and safety.

 

Quality Policy

 

Constant vigilance is maintained at every stage of process from input of raw materials and utilities till the finished

goods are ready, packed and delivered. Quality has remained as Company's motto

 

Research & Development

 

The R & D and technology capabilities of the Company will play a primary role in positioning the company as a

"solution provider" and not only "product supplier"

 

Joint Venture

 

The Company is exploring all possibilities for a tie-up with a strategic Partner for expanding OBA business plus adding new lines of Auxiliaries, Speciality chemicals for fast developing Textiles and papers business domestically.

 

The talks are in progress with some of its reputed clients and are hopeful to enter into a memorandum of understanding with any one of them during the year.

 

Financial performances analysis:

 

The Company's net sales and income from operations in the year 2005-06 was Rs 116.429 Millions against Rs. 91.452 Millions in the previous year, an increase of 27.31%. The export sales registered an increase of 24.01% to reach Rs. 92.938 Millions in the year. The profit before taxation was Rs. 4.354 Millions.

 

The improvement in turnover and net profit during the year under review reflects, the continuous efforts of the Management and the employees towards cost reduction, improvement in process technology and efficiency, improvement in productivity and development of new products.

 

The company’s fixed assets of important value includes Leasehold Land, Factory Building, Flats, Plant & Machinery, Electrical Installations, Laboratory Equipments, Office Equipments, Furniture & Fixtures, Computer & Fax Machine and Vehicles.

 

The company employs around 75 persons in different setups.

 

Subject came into the public issue in May 95 for expansion. Promoted by J G Patel -- ex-joint managing director of Indian Dyestuff Industries (IDI) -- and others, Subject, is presently involved in the manufacture of DNS, is now expanding its DNS capacity from 120 tpa to 480 tpa, and integrating forward to manufacture DASDA and optical brightening agents (OBA). DCI has entered into an technical cum financial support from Daika (Japan), whereby the latter will buy the production of DCI, for a period of ten years. 

 
Presently DCIL is managed under the leadership of Mr. Jayant G Patel as its Chariman and Mr. Amit J Patel as its Managing Director. 

 
Di-nitro stilbene (DNS) is an intermediate used to manufacture di-amino stilbene di-sulphonic acid (DASDA), which is the raw material for OBA. OBAs find application in the paper and cotton textile industries. A part of the DNS produced will be captively consumed to produce DASDA, while the balance will be exported to Daika. Similarly, a part of the DASDA produced, will be used to manufacture OBA. The entire quantity of OBA produced along with the remaining DASADA will be exported to Daika (Japan). 

 
During 1997 company has started production of OBA with an installed capacity of 250000 Kgs.

 

Website Details :

 

Subject is a chemical manufacturing Company established in 1992. They have come a long way since and established a name in the chemical industry. Other than the production of chemicals, which after processing becomes a part of everyone's day to day life, Subject entered the consumer arena in 1995 by converting into a Public Limited Company. Today, it has a subscribed capital of Rs. 52 Million having more than 4000 share holders, including Foreign Collaborators, Financial Institutions, Body Corporates,  Non - Resident Indians and Indian public.

 

Subject has a production facility in Tarapur. The unit was established in 1992 and from a small turnover of about 10 millions that year, the unit has achieved higher sales in the range of Rs. 100 millions, with reasonable profits and reserves in the last ten years.

 


In the year 1993, they at Subject came across the Japanese Technology. They realised the benefits of using it which resulted in low input costs as well as manual labour in the area of production and automation respectively. Hence, they decided to venture into collaboration with them, on terms of transparency, trust and full co-operation from both sides.

 

They are staunch believers of hard work and morality, which is why they have been able to incorporate goodwill amongst all their audience, be it clients, consumers, suppliers, share holders, bankers or their very own employees. They believe that "All successful business stands on foundation of morality, and the price of greatness is responsibility."

 

Their quality and consistency as a reliable source of supply is the key differentiator between them and the others, hence they are fully conscious that at any costs they have to maintain their credibility. It is only because of such reasons that their clients value their work to the extent that they export their products under their names and trademarks claiming full responsibility.

 

Their clientele includes established names in the industry like Clariant, KIWA, ERCA spa, DAIKA (Japan) and many more.

 

With an established clientele and a production setup of international standards, Subject applied for the ISO 9001:2000 Certification, which has been approved thus adding a hallmark to the Subject team's hard work and success.

 

Factory

 

Subject has one manufacturing plant, located on the outskirts of Mumbai, in Tarapur near Boisar.

 

The main objective of the unit is to produce quality Intermediates, mainly for exports with the technical help from the overseas collaborators, so as to create cost advantages for all their customers, establish trust and confidence as a reliable sourcing unit.

 

Subject's state of the art plant at Tarapur has been setup with Japanese Collaboration having forward integration production facilities from PNTSA, DNS, DAS, DHS to various OBA's under one roof.

 

Subject also has a comprehensive technology - cum - marketing tie-up in the field of "Azoic Coupling Components" with the Japanese Collaborators. The plant is located at E-4, M.I.D.C., Boisar, in Thane district of Maharashtra, having present production facilities approved by the Government of India vide their acknowledgement No. 782 / SAI / IMO / 98 dated 22/04/1998.

                                                                                                                 

As a composite unit, it has backward integration facilities to produce 60MT per month of DNS and 50MT per month of DAS with sufficient spare capacity for sale, after captive consumption. The present installed capacity for Pigment Intermediates and Azoic Coupling Components is 500MT per annum and have on hand expansion plans to double it.

 

The factory has various plants consisting of Sulfonations, Air-Oxidation Tanks, Reduction Vessels and 4 Cyanuration Reactors of SS 316 of 10,000 ltrs capacity along with balancing equipment's such as Filter Presses, Dryers, Blenders, Pulverizers, Chilling Plant, Boilers, Glasslined Reactors and Condensers.

Collaboration

 

The Tarapur plant, near Mumbai, has been setup with the Japanese Collaboration to include modern setup of International Standards. It has the forward integration facilities from PNTSA, DNS, DAS, DHS to various OBA's under one roof.

 

The Japanese technology is unique in real sense, that the input costs are minimum, particularly the processes involving Air-Oxidation, Amidation, De-hydration, Condensation etc., where cost advantage is remarkable. Automation is another field where a lot of manual labour can be spared.

 

Besides, in all the range of production lines, the Japanese have not only provided technology free of any costs, but had agreed to buy-back certain quantities of their production for their valued clients, since the quality of the products were directly under their supervision and control. This way both the companies have been able to establish their names in the International Markets.

 

Their fundamental principle is to join hands on honourable terms with any of the overseas partners / producers as a "Joint Venture Unit" that can be managed in total transparency and trust with full co-operation from both the sides.
