LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

HISTORY:

 

Incorporated in 1974 at Kolkata as Indian Fine Blank by Bijon Nag in collaboration with Heinrich Schmid, Switzerland, to manufacture fine blanking tools, blanked components and sub-assemblies, IFB Industries has today a second fine blanking factory at Bangalore and an ultra modern plant under subsidiary European Fine Blanking at Wrexham, Wales, UK. It has two joint venture subsidiaries -- RHW India and RHW Autoliv India, in collaboration with RHW, Germany and Electrolux, Sweden, to manufacture automotive seat recliners / seating systems and safety equipment.  

 

The launch of fully automatic washing machines in 1990 in collaboration with Bosch, Germany, signaled IFB's entry into the white goods sector. Expansion of capacity at the Goa plant and the acquisition of Microwin Electronics, at Bhopal ensures expansion in product volume and range. The FHP motor factory at Bangalore (1992) in collaboration with Siemens (Germany) is now envisaging growth in the automotive sector also. 

 
The international business division has grown into a recognized Export House dealing in not only IFB's own products but also third-party exports. It recently acquired a microwave oven plant at Bhopal which is being upgraded for increased production of better microwave ovens and to start a new line in dish-washers. An additional line is being set up at the Goa plant for washing machines. A new line for clothes dryers is also being established. The company has technical tie-up with Asko Cylinda, Sweden, for the manufacture of dish washers and with E Mail, Australia, for the manufacture of clothes dryers. 

 
During 1995-96, it launched its three new produces viz. Microwave Oven, Dish Washer and Clothes Dryer at Bhopal and Goa plant. With further expansion in its washing machine division at Goa, new model "Executive" of 4 kgs capacity and "Supremo" of 5.5 Kgs has been introduced. 

 
In the year under report i.e. 1999-2000, the company launched the state of the art `Senator' model which sustained and improved the company's position at the top segment with increased market share. 


The company has been referred to BIFR as the net worth of the company has been fully eroded. The Bangalore Unit and Kolkata Unit have been certified ISO 9001 & ISO 9002 respectively. 

 
During the financial year 2003-04, Engineering factories at Kolkata & Bangalore have been certified as QS9000 by DNV.

 

REVIEW OF OPERATION: 

 
The company completed another year of sustained growth. Home appliance and Engineering Divisions posted strong growth in revenue and strengthened their market standing. This achievement is more noteworthy when viewed in the light of challenging business environment in white goods and auto components. Washing machine sales crossed 1 lakh mark. Sales in Washing machine, dish washers, micro wave ovens & cloth dryers registered growth of 25%, 33%,47% & 33% respectively. Engineering division also achieved a sales growth of 24%. 
 
 However margin in washing machine sales reduced due to rise in input costs, freight cost and sustained pressure on sale price due to cut throat competition. Due to immense competition, margin in microwave oven sales was also bare minimum. During the year the company introduced two new models of microwave ovens and started sourcing of Industrial dish washer. Due to financial constraints the Company could not make adequate advertisement and marketing expenses leading to under exploitation of market potential. 

 
Despite significant growth in the automobile sector there has been a severe price war among the competitors leading to a lower margin on fine blanking components supplied by the company to its customers. 


 
During the year, the Company has suffered a operating loss of Rs.95.600 Millions as against previous year's reported loss figure of Rs. 238.400 Millions.

However after considering prior period adjustment and gain on exceptional items the company earned a profit of Rs. 362.900 Millions as against previous year reported Loss of Rs. 131.100 Millions. The profit figure for the year under review improved due to booking of gain on interest waiver consequent to debt settlement. To reflect the true and fair view, the Company has identified unusable tools and moulds pertaining to discontinued models and also junked machineries. Consequently a sum of Rs 190.200 Millions has been provided in the accounts.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS: 

Industry Structure & Developments: 

A surge in the global automobile industry since the late nineties has led to a robust growth of the automobile sector in the country. In tandem with the industry trends, the Indian auto component sector has shown great advances in recent years in terms of growth, spread, absorption of technologies and flexibility. Indian auto component industry has seen major growth on arrival of global vehicle manufacturers from Japan, Korea, US and Europe. Today India is emerging as one of the key auto components centers in Asia and is expected to play a key role in the global automotive supply chain in the near future. 

The auto parts industry has emerged as one of India's fastest growing manufacturing industry and a globally competitive one. The auto components industry in India supports industries like automobiles, machine tools, rubber, plastics, electrical, electronics, forging, machining etc. 

India has also emerged as an outsourcing hub for auto parts for international companies viz Ford, General Motors, Daimler Chrysler, Fiat, Volkswagon and Toyota. 

The year 2006-07 shows encouraging results for all segments of automobile industry and it is expected to grow if the favourable conditions prevail.

Exports have also been showing the buoyancy. The exports will be a potential source of revenue growth in the future. 
 
However, interest rate hike and appreciating rupee remained a downside risk. Growth in consumer durable slowed down to 9 percent in 2007, as compared with 15.3 percent in the previous fiscal. 

Due to increase in the price of steel plastic and other input materials and also due to severe price war all the washing machine manufacturers felt the heat. Demand growth has been slow because of low penetration of washing machines in sub-urban India. Being an appliance that has substitute, the utility perception of the product is low and washing machine rank low in the priority list of consumers. The product is still to find acceptance in the rural market where a majority of the population resides, as a result demand remains restricted to the bigger towns and cities. With the increasing urbanization and marginal price difference between front loading fully automatic (lower end) and top loading automatic washing machine, front loading fully automatic washing machines are being preferred by a larger section of consumers. 

 

Outlook: 
 
The pick up in the global economy, the revival of the Indian economy, industrial revival and reforms programmes being implemented at various stages are factors that augur well for the Company. Efforts towards higher operational efficiencies and focus on cost reduction shall continue. In addition to increasing market penetration and higher volumes the Company is also expanding its product range. The future is exciting. Consumers are becoming brand conscious. Consumers are looking at sustained product promises, what industry calls brand value. 
 
Modest demand growth of household appliances over the medium term is expected to be driven by increasing urbanization, the rising population of working women and higher disposable income increasing the affordability of the product. 

A significant share of demand for fully automatic washing machines accrues from the replacement segment. Replacement market needs to be aggressively targeted. They want to establish IFB as a specialist in appliances rather than a generalist. They wish to go beyond their existing product range. 

The Indian auto-ancillaries sector is poised for growth. Companies which have made their mark, now wait to scale up to meet global orders. IFB has also given proper thrust to explore the possibility of acquiring export orders. To meet increased demand & maintain premium quality of their products machineries have been acquired for fine blanking, heat treatment & grinding activity. The company is harnessing fresh market from overseas ,customers.

The Company needs to modernize aggressively, train its workforce in new emerging technologies & retain them through better HR practices.
