History

 

Philips India was incorporated in 1930 as a private limited company under the name Philips Electricals Company (India) by N V Philips Gloeilampenfabrieken, Eindhoven, the Netherlands. It acquired its present name in 1956, after privatisation and was converted into a public limited company in 1957.

The Kalwa (Thane) plant manufactures a range of lamps such as GLS lamps, fluorescent lamps, mercury vapour/sodium vapour lamps and their components such as glass shells, filament wires, etc.  

 
The company diversified into the telecommunications segment to manufacture two-way radios and pagers. It set up a joint venture project with Webel Telecommunications in Calcutta in which it has a 51% stake.

The Directors submit their report and audited accounts for the year ended December 31, 2006. 

 
The Indian economy appears set on a sustainable high-growth trajectory with GDP growth averaging 8% over the last four years. In the first nine months of the current fiscal year, industrial production has grown 10.8% reflecting continued economic buoyancy. The strong surge in domestic consumption in the housing, automotive and consumer durable sectors is a signal of overall optimism and confidence in the economy. Higher foreign direct investment inflows, growing savings rate and the anticipated larger government outlays in agriculture, health and the social services support growth momentum. However concerns over inflation and the Central bank's monetary policies could contain credit availability in the coming year thereby moderating growth. 

 

Sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 fell marginally by 7%, from Rs.28,389 million to Rs 26,486 millions. All the businesses reported robust growth in sales, except for Consumer Electronics. Medical Systems which grew by 22%, Domestic Appliances and Personal Care, which grew by 19% and Lighting which grew by 12%, were the strong performers during the year 2006. Despite the drop in sales, operating profit increased by 40% on the back of profitable growth of the Lighting and Software businesses. Exceptional items for the year include profits of Rs.1,261 millions on account of sale of Semiconductors and Speaker Systems businesses, profits of Rs. 362 millions on sale of assets and a charge of Rs 79 millions under Employees' Voluntary Retirement Scheme.

BUSINESS PERFORMANCE: 

 
The Notes to the Profit and Loss Account for the year provide segment results. Required disclosures are made below for Lighting, Consumer Electronics, the Innovation Campus (Software), Medical Systems and Domestic Appliance and Personal Care division. 

 
LIGHTING: 
 
The Division enjoyed double-digit growth, making it the fifth consecutive year of growth. Overall the Division sales grew by 12%, with the Automotive, Lighting Electronics, Luminaires and Lamps businesses growing at healthy rates. Market shares increased in these business groups, giving the division an overall share of close to 30% in a growing market, where existing lighting and new non-lighting players are making their presence felt with new products and increasing their production capacities. 

 
Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFL) led growth in the lamps segment The excellent growth in CFL was also in line with the energy conservation initiatives taken by various state governments/energy conservation authorities. The rural market strategy envisaged a few years ago continues to help the business sustain its growth ambitions. Regular introduction of new and cost-competitive products from the Luminaires and Lighting Electronics groups have helped these businesses to grow and maintain market leadership. The Division executed some key lighting projects across the country including the one at the Howrah Bridge in Kolkata using state of the art LED lamps which is displayed on the front cover of this year's Annual Accounts. 

 
The Division remains committed to cost, quality and process improvements. 

 
The outlook for 2007 remains positive and the Division expects to sustain growth through increased market penetration, new and cost-competitive products and increased focus on energy saving products. 

 
CONSUMER ELECTRONICS: 

 
The Entertainment Solutions portfolio had a tough first half in 2006, with business performance declining on account of high stocks in channel, large volumes of slow moving models and pricing issues. However corrective actions during this period resulted in the second half of 2006 showing marked improvement with a growth of 2% in value which was in line with the market. The DVD and Home Theatre segments recovered quickly with the introduction of a feature-packed new range and localisation of products. Market shares improved in the second half of 2006. 

 
Overall, at the close of 2006, the Entertainment Solutions business reported a higher profitability as compared to 2005. The thrust for the coming year will be in Home Theatres and Portable Digital Audio MP3 Players in addition to the Accessories business. DVD-HDD is also slotted for a test launch in 2007, with the objective of driving innovations to the top end in the DVD segment. 

 
The Colour Television industry showed a value growth of 8.8% in 2006 helped by a shift in consumer preferences towards Flat and Large Screen Televisions, as well as LCD. However the Industry continues to face sharp ,price erosion, especially in Real Flat CRT and LCD segments, resulting in pressure on margins. To improve cost competitiveness and respond to emerging market trends, localisation of LCD TV manufacturing and a change to localised designs in CRT is planned for 2007, with a strong business focus on the fast growing Flat Television and LCD segments. 

 
MEDICAL SYSTEMS: 

 
The Medical Systems Division operates in the Diagnostic Imaging segment, which includes CT, MRI, X-rays, Cardiovascular System, Nuclear Medicine, PET-CT and Ultrasound Imaging Systems, and is also a significant player in patient monitoring. The total business in 2006 amounted to Rs 2,804 million-a growth of around 22%. 
 
In 2006, the Division recorded strong growth in most business lines, winning major contracts across its entire product range, including those from major private hospital groups as also from large Government postgraduate teaching hospitals. Strong account management backed by excellent customer focus has been the key success factors of the year. There was excellent growth in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) business during the year in both 1.5 and 3 Tesla segments. Cardiac Computerised Tomography (CT) systems continued to do well during 2006, maintaining a market share of around 30%. The CMS/Patient Monitoring business continued to retain dominant market position with the sale of 1,200 units of the newly-launched 'Suresigns VM series monitors'. Cardiovascular and 4-dimension systems contributed to the success of the Ultrasound equipment group in 2006. The Customer Support group has performed consistently well, meeting and often exceeding customer expectations, resulting in good loyalty-based repeat orders. 

 
Customer purchasing patterns are changing and an increasing number of decisions are now based on lifecycle costs, putting pressure on margins. With a CAGR in revenues of 8-10%, the Medical Systems Division is looking forward to continuing its growth initiatives successfully in 2007. 

 
DOMESTIC APPLIANCES and PERSONAL CARE: 

 
The Domestic Appliances and Personal Care Division sales grew by more than 19% during the year when the overall market grew by around 6.5%. The Kitchen Appliances segment grew by more than 25%, contributed mainly by high end Mixer Grinders and Toasters. Growth in Shavers was also substantial and several new products from the international range were introduced in the last quarter. 

 
Philips maintained its overall No. 1 brand position in the addressable market segment. The year was characterised by steep increases in raw material prices which, to some extent, affected growth. Although margins continued to be under pressure, the Division was able to maintain its profitability. 

 
The outlook for 2007 is one of stronger growth and continued emphasis on Key Accounts. 

 
INNOVATION CAMPUS: 

 
Philips Innovation Campus (PIC) has built up extensive know-how and expertise in the software engineering and technology domains for lifestyle and healthcare products. During the year the strength of the Medical group increased and more growth is expected in future. However, there were reductions in the Consumer Electronics (CE) group. PIC further extended its area of operations to cover business application development for various Philips organizations. 

 
The divestment of the erstwhile Semiconductor Division was completed at the end of September 2006. Consequent to the divestment, PIC's strength at the end of 2006 was 949 as compared to 1,656 at the end of 2005. The retention rate remained reasonable as compared to the IT industry average. Sales (total deliveries) amounted to Rs 3,843 millions as compared to Rs.3,558 millions in 2005, a nominal increase of 8% over the previous year. However, on a comparable basis the deliveries recorded an increase of 21% over the previous year. The CE and Medical groups of PIC were evaluated to be performing at CMMI Level 3 standards. 

 
BUSINESS RESTRUCTURING: 

 
The Semiconductor Business was divested to Philips Semiconductors India Private Limited (now known as NXP Semiconductors India Private Limited) with effect from October 1, 2006, at a total consideration of Rs.1,917 million. The Speaker Systems group forming a small part of the Consumer Electronics Division, was transferred to Premium Sound Solution Private Limited on December 27, 2006, at a consideration of Rs.96 million.
