History :

 

In the Seventies, Kolkata based industrialists Mr. R S Agarwal and Mr. R S Goenka  jointly promoted the business of Himani Limited. Over the last three decades, Himani has not only emerged as a leading player in the field of personal and health care products in India and also changed its name as Emami Limited. Toiletries, Medicines and Food products are the main Products of the company.

 

The company is headquartered in Kolkata with a multi locational manufacturing presence in Kolkata, Pondicherry, Jabalpur, Guwahati and Mumbai. The company has offices across 27 Indian cities. The company has also markets its products in over 30 countries. 


During the year 1995 the company increased the installed capacity of medicines from 1440 MT to 1760 MT. During the same year the company initiated steps for modernisation and technological upgradation in order to combat competition and retain its market share.  


Kolkata High Court has sanctioned the Scheme of Amalgamation. Accordingly Emami Limited has been amalgamted with Himani Limited with effect from 1st April, 1998. Board has allotted 8,86,000 equity shares of the company to the Emami Limited, as per amalgamation. Company's name has been changed from "Himani Limited" to "Emami Limited" as on 1st September 1998. 

 

The company has expanded the installed capacity of Medicine during the year 2002-03 by 1000 MT and with this expansion the total capacity has been increased to 15261 MT. 


The total capacity of Toiletries, Medicines and Food products at the end of financial year 2002-03 are 2391.70 MT, 15261 MT & 500 MT respectively.

 

MILESTONES

 

In the year 1978 Himani Limited a 70-year-old company was acquired. Today the successful Boroplus Cream is from Himani, a pioneer in herbal cosmetics in the country. After years of experimentation, Boroplus Antiseptic Cream was launched.

 

Sensing success in the field of plastics, the Group incorporated Classic Plastics Private Limited, which manufactures blow moulding containers and bottles for the cosmetics industries and jerry cans for oil companies.

 

Due to Emami’s overwhelming success in India its products received ready acceptance in Russia. It is also being continuously exported to Middle East, South East Asia and countries of EEC.

 

The Emami Group has taken a giant step into a field not ventured by them so far – the field of medicine. The former Frank Ross Limited is now a member of the Emami Group, and manufactures ethical life saving drugs.

 

CRI Limited today is recognized as the leader in manufacturing Tips and Refills for ball Point Pen in India.

 

Capitalizing Exports on the liberal economic policy of the Government of India, the Emami Group is making successful ventures into the foreign market with increased momentum.

Amalgamation of JB Marketing and Finance Limited with the Company:

 

The scheme of amalgamation of JB Marketing & Finance Limited (JBMF) with the Company has been approved by the Hon'ble Calcutta High Court on 23rd February, 2007. Pursuant to the said scheme of amalgamation, 9,95,177 equity shares of Emami Limited were allotted to the shareholders of JBMF on 24th April, 2007, being the record date. The amalgamation has helped the Company achieve the benefits of vertical integration as JBMF was engaged in the business of marketing and selling the Company's products through its extensive domestic network. 


Review of operations: 


With GDP growth in excess of 9%, India is the fastest-growing democratically elected country in the world. Such economic growth is led by growth in all sectors viz. agriculture, industry and services. Since 2005, the FMCG sector has staged a smart recovery and is currently growing at an average rate of around 12%. Higher disposable incomes, a favourable consumer profile with 45% population below 20 years of age, developing infrastructure, deepening media and distribution penetration and organised tax structure like VAT are contributing to such aggressive growth. Emami has strengthened its competitive capabilities in all spheres of activities.

 

Almost all brands have grown faster than the category growth. 

 

Since Emami's financial results for the financial year 2006-07 also include the performance of the amalgamating company, JBMF, they are not comparable with the previous year's figures. However, if the previous year's figures are consolidated for comparison purpose, then the net sales at Rs. 516 cr and PAT at Rs. 66 cr reflect growth of 26% and 33% respectively. 


Emami's continuous endeavour of providing innovative, effective and value-for-money products based on ayurveda, using modern laboratory practices has helped deliver better results. Equipped with strong power brands and coupled with innovative new launches, Emami is poised for continuous business growth. Your Board therefore takes optimistic view of the future.

 
 
Further, while Emami Limited is on the lookout for acquisitions in India and abroad for inorganic growth in FMCG sector, it has also identified realty as another potential business opportunity. With Emami's resources, it can easily take these opportunities. A wholly-owned subsidiary, Emami Realty Pvt. Limited, was formed in May 2007 to take up this business. Apart from utilization of Emami's war chest, it would also give the realty business an independent and separate focus since it would be a 100 per cent subsidiary of Emami Ltd. While aggressive growth in FMCG business continues, realty would further enhance profitability and shareholders' wealth. 

 

Industry Overview:

 

The Indian FMCG sector is valued at around USID 13.1 bn and expected to grow to USID 17.4 bn by 2010. The overall consumer market growth was 12%-plus in 2006 and is expected to stay buoyant in 2007, backed by robust demand across various product categories.

 
For detailed discussions on industry growth, opportunity and challenges, please refer to page 18 of this report. 


The Company's operational performance: 


The Company sustained its robust growth through brand rejuvenation and successful launches in health and personal care products. Today, Emami is a major player in the country's health, personal and beauty care segments.

 

Sales wise, its Navratna Oil is the biggest brand that enjoys a 55% market share. Despite being the premium oil, the brand almost doubled its sales in the last three years, a reflection of not just its superior price-value proposition but also consumer endorsements over competing brands. The Company's Boroplus Antiseptic Cream further strengthened its leadership position with 70% market share. 


With brands such as Boroplus, Navratna, Sona Chandi, Menthoplus, Fast Relief and Fair & Handsome, Emami is present in profitable niche FMCG segments (cooling oils, antiseptic creams, fairness creams, chyawanprash, prickly heat powder, rubificients and pain relief) with a focus on aspirational categories like personal care, health and grooming. 


Emami's innovative R&D, aggressive marketing, penetrating distribution, stringent quality controls, stronger procurement and operational efficiencies, young and responsive team and online information systems are driving Emami to newer heights and enabling it to win trust of 1.1 billion consumers 


Besides, the various brand promotion activities conducted by the Company comprised: 


* Introduction of attractive packaging with changing consumer preferences enhancing customer appeal 
* Tie-ups with TV channels leading to a larger viewership 

* Increasing product visibility through prominent display at shopping malls and multiplexes and in-shop 

  promotions through danglers and posters 

* Live demonstration and product promotions in schools

* Participation in rural fairs, exhibitions, rural audio visual vans, trade merchandising and contact 

  programmes across the length and breadth of the country

* Organisation of innovative consumer promotion programmes through the on-pack and in-pack route 

 
 

Emami's distribution network ensures anytime availability of its brands across the country. 


Emami's distribution network - 24 depots, 2,600 distributors, and 400,000 retail outlets - ensure that retailers never run out of stock and customers never return empty handed. To enhance the effectiveness of its distribution, the Company merged J.B. Marketing and Finance Ltd, its marketing company, with itself during the year under review.

 
Emami segregated its sales channels as per the changing requirement of urban and rural markets; while the products in the rural markets were promoted through Emami Mobile Traders, Emami small village shops, ITC e-choupal and the country's postal network, the urban markets were serviced through a modern trade channel that targeted customers in shopping malls and lifestyle outlets directly or through specialised distributors in addition to the regular retail network. 


To strengthen its distribution, Emami entered into agreements with various state governments; an agreement with the Gujarat government helped market products in fair-price shops and ration shops. The Company appointed approximately 150 additional distributors in Andhra Pradesh targeting towns with a population of 10,000plus. Through projects like Kaya Kalp, Emami inculcated a strong sales culture within its field force supported by direct supervision and standardised reporting
structures.
