The company is exporting its products to various countries across the world. The Directors are confident to explore better overseas market in the years to come.

 

Initial Public Issue: 

The Directors have pleasure to Inform you that the Company's Initial public offer for a sum of Rs.800.000 millions through the 100% Book Building Process has successfully over subscribed by more than 7 times.

 

Industry Structure and Developments: 

The Indian chemical industry is one of the fastest growing sectors of Indian economy. It contributes 13% to the India's gross domestic product.

 

The chemical industry in India is fragmented and dispersed with several companies having varied product portfolios. In India, chemicals are sold directly to large customers and through distribution channels. Distribution channels mostly consist of stockiest and dealers spread all over India addressing small segments and retail market. The industry is a vital part of the agriculture and industrial development of India. 

 

They are one of the leading producers of niche chemical solutions in India for agro-chemicals, pharmaceuticals, flavours and fragrance and dye and paint industry. Their business mainly comprise of manufacturing and marketing of chlorinated compounds and their derivatives. Their range of chlorinated compounds primarily includes Chlorotoluene range and Sulphur Chlorides range. In the Chlorotoluene range the primary products are Benzyl Chloride, Benzalchloride and Benzo Trichloride, Benzyl Alcohol. Their products are sold directly to customers.

 
 The Indian chemical Industry is highly heterogeneous and consists of the following major sectors: 
*Petrochemicals

* Fine and Specialty Chemicals

* Bulk Drugs* Agrochemicals

* Inorganic Chemicals

* Organic Chemicals 

 
Opportunities and Threats: 

The Company and its business are significantly dependent upon the availability and market prices for Toluene, which by nature is very volatile and thus can adversely affect their business and financial results.

  
Besides, the availability, cost and quality of chlorine, steam and electricity have a significant impact on the working of the company. The products of the company are focused primarily on the agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, dyes and flavours and fragrance industry and as a result, their operations are significantly influenced by the trends of the aforesaid industries. The chemical industry in India has the potential to grow to around USD 100 billion by 2010 according to KPMG's Analysis. This would imply an annual growth rate of more than 15% annually. 

 
Risk and Concerns: 

The company is working in a very global competitive business environment and is dependent upon few key customers, any loss of such significant customers would adversely affect the working of the company.

  
 Moreover, most of the arrangements with the customers are without any commitment to future work. 
 
 Termination of such arrangements could also have a substantial impact on the working of the company. 
 
 Besides, exchange rate fluctuations and general economic situation could have substantial impact on the working of the company. 

 
Future Outlook: 

Their objective is to concentrate on better margin yielding products and exploit growing domestic and international market opportunities for these products, they have laid down the strategy to manufacture downstream products of benzyl chloride, benzaldehyde and thionyl chloride. For this purpose, they plan to manufacture a range of products primarily comprising benzyl salycilate, benzyl benzoate, cinnamic aldehydes and hexyl cinnamic aldehydes. A fully integrated facility will help them become cost effective and expand their market opportunities for their current products. These fonward integration measures are in various stages of implementation, and they plan to commercially commission the planned expansion by October, 2007.
