OPERATIONS 
The operations in the Vasai Factory, the Kitting Unit at Kalher and at Mira Road continue to be extremely satisfactory. The Company has completed nearly five years of accident- free record in the Vasai Factory due to the stringent EHS standards followed at the factory. The employee relations at all locations of the Company continue to be satisfactory. The ISO 9001 and14001 certifications granted to the Company's manufacturing facilities continued to be reaffirmed during the current financial year by LRQA based on its stringent audits conducted during the year. 

 

POWER 
The condition in the Energy business, which was difficult during the first half of the year, improved significantly towards the second half. The Company was able to register an increase of 40% over the sales during the previous financial year. The bulk of this increase has come from the Northern Region. In the case of Delhi Vidyut Board, as against a 10% market share, which the Company enjoyed during the previous financial year, it was possible to increase the same to approximately 70% because of the patronage extended to us by BSES and Tatas who were successful in acquiring the distribution rights from DVB. The Company was also able to make in roads into the Extra High Voltage cable accessory sales. In addition, the Surge Arrester business has also shown considerable growth. 

 
TELECOM 
Telecom industry was in a state of major transformation with the entry of WLL resulting in a sea change in the revenue model of the industry. All expansion plans of Fixed Wire Network had beep on hold. BSNL procurement of PIJF cables in the financial year 2002- 03 was 25% of the normal level of purchases. Consequently, there was a drop in the procurement of cable jointing kits. During the year, BSNL implemented the requirement that jointing kit manufacturers should have the facility to produce the sleeves from the granule stage. 

 
Despite the serious crisis in the Telecom PIJF cable market, the Company was able to register an almost 11% increase in the turnover, primarily because of the fact that it was able to consolidate the market share further from the Private Service Providers. Company's market share with both Bharti Telecom and Tata Tele services is over 70%. The Company was also able to improve the overall profitability for this business primarily through indigenization. 
 
INDUSTRIAL 
Significant delay in the disinvestments of PSU oil companies lead to the delay in the finalization of pipeline projects in the country. The Central India pipeline project has been abandoned. Discovery of oil and gas by Reliance improves the long-term prospects for the industry. Rehab market for existing pipelines emerging as a new opportunity for cold applied tapes. There were no new petrochemical or process industry projects in the current financial year, which had an adverse impact on your Company's performance in this sector. The Division also witnessed leadership change during the year. 

 
EXPORTS 
The performance of the Export Division was satisfactory because despite the significant shortfall in the Tyco business, we were able to register sales close to the FY '02 sales levels. The reason for this is mainly the drop in the off-take by the Tyco Telecom Division, which witnessed a drop of almost 60%. Acquiring a large number of new, non- Tyco customers has offset most of this drop. However, the full benefit of this will be felt only from the new Financial Year onwards. The company, however, managed to retain the profitability in the business through innovative manufacturing practices. The export volumes suffered because of the uncertain economic conditions contributed by the threat of war and also the influence of the SAR South break. 

 
ELECTRONICS  
Overall, the Electronics Division demonstrated very impressive increases over the previous year's sales. However, the problems of export licensing in the U.K. continues to cause hindrance in the expansion of this business. The profitability of the Inter Connect business also suffered badly because of the penalties we were obliged to pay to Naval Head Quarters against a large sale of wire and cable, we made to them. The most impressive gains, however, were made in the Auto segment where we were able to increase our sales by approximately 130%. 

 
CANARA ELECTRIC CONTROLS 

The business of Canara Electricals, a proprietary concern, was acquired as of 15t April 2002. It is quite satisfying to note that this Division has more than met its revenue and profitability targets and is poised to further increase the business volume. The Division has also chalked out plans to diversify into other segments of the Rectifier markets. Manufacture of power electronic components is also being considered. 

 

FINANCE  
The working capital usage has been very satisfactory during the year under review. The interest burden continues to be well under control as the company has been able to acquire the necessary working capital funds at extremely competitive rates. The Company continues to enjoy the highest credit rating. 

 

Performance Analysis 

In spite of the challenging business environment that prevailed in the industry during the financial year under review as stated above, the Company has posted a satisfactory growth in Sales as compared to the previous financial year. The Company achieved a Net total turnover ofRs.814.20 millions during the current financial year ended 31st March 2003 as compared to a Net total turnover of Rs. 674.40 millions achieved during the previous financial year. 

 
The Company had undertaken several marketing, product portfolio expansion, market penetration and cost reduction initiatives in the current financial year. Due to these measures, the profits before tax increased to Rs. 105.60 millions in the current financial year from Rs. 8.82 millions during the previous financial year.
