MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 


  (A) ECONOMIC AND BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT 


  The GDP growth for the year 2006-07 was 9.4% as compared to 8% in the previous year 2005-06. The Industrial sector has grown impressively propelled by robust growth in the manufacturing sector to attain a growth rate of 11% and the services sector also grew by around 11%. The investment scenario looks optimistic, particularly with rising domestic savings rates and FDI inflows. The Forex reserves (excluding Gold and SDRs) stood at $191.92 billion at the end of March, 2007 and the inflation rate hovers at around 5%. On the negative side, Agriculture and allied activities' growth, however, slowed down to 2.7% in 2006-07. Another concern is the significant increase in the rate of interest which would push the cost of funds for the corporates and have an impact on their profitability. The Pharmaceutical formulations market witnessed a value growth of around 14% during the year and the new products continue to drive the growth. 


 
 (B) OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS 

  Opportunities 
 
 * Since Pharmaceutical Industry is growing reasonably well; there is an opportunity for the Company to grow the business in this segment. Further, opening up of the Health Insurance Sector and the expected growth in the per capita income would be the key drivers for the expansion of the Healthcare Industry of which Pharma Industry is an integral part. 

 
 * With the increasing awareness and wider acceptance of herbal therapy, herbal formulations also provide an opportunity for growth, particularly for life style related ailments like stress, diabetes, etc., as the Company is already present in this segment. 

 
 * The unique advantage of having an exclusive network for distribution of OTC products available to the Company can be leveraged for launch of new products under its own brands which will not only provide improved profitability but also ensure building of brands for long term sustenance of the business. 


 * On the Bio-Medical Devices front, due to the gap between domestic demand and supply, there is continued dependence on import of quality surgical implants and this can be gainfully exploited through the existing products like Heart Valves manufactured by the Company and also through launch of niche products in this segment. There is also an opportunity available to the Company for exporting these products to neighbouring countries. 
 
 * Considering the size of the market for food products, the Foods Business of the Company provides good opportunity for growth. There is a possibility of exploiting the market through launch of value added ready to eat products. There is also a possibility of further increase in exports. 

 
 * Since GIS / GPS related services are gaining momentum, the capabilities available at the Publications Division will present an opportunity to the Company for entering this growing segment.

 
 
 To sum up, since the Company is diversified into more than one segment, there are quite a few opportunities available for growth in the coming years. 

 
 Threats 
 
 * The Product Patent Regime has restricted the access for Indian Pharma Companies to the latest molecules which were hitherto available for exploitation by them. However, there will be opportunities for these Companies to launch products that are out of patents. 

 
 * There have been rapidly changing new drug discovery technologies and processes at the global level and the Indian Pharmaceutical industry being fiercely competitive requires huge capital Investment in upgrading the facilities to match international standards. MNCs and Foreign companies have an advantage over the domestic companies in this regard. 

 
 (C) SEGMENTWISE PERFORMANCE 


  As you know, the Company has three Strategic Business Units (SBUs) viz., Pharmaceutical Business, Consumer Products Business and Medical Devices Business. 

 
 In addition, the Company is also engaged in Foods and Publishing Businesses. 

 
 They shall now have a look at the performance of individual Business Segments:

 
 PHARMACEUTICAL BUSINESS 

 The Ethical Products Business of the Company deals in Pharmaceutical Formulations, both Herbal and Allopathic, in various therapeutic segments. Pharmaceuticals also include Woodwards' Gripewater. Since the product is distributed through the Consumer Products Division of the Company, the same has been covered under the head Consumer Products Business. 

 
 Ethical Products Division 


  The Ethical Products Division of the Company covers Gynecologists, Physicians, Orthopedists, Cardiologists and General Practitioners and the field force spread across the country meets around 60,000 doctors every month. 
 
 The Ethical Products Division's product range encompasses Calcium Supplements, Haematinic, Cervical Dilator, Thrombolytic Agents, Rejuvenators, Multimineral Supplements, Galactagogues, Liver Correctives, Pain Management Products, Anti-Ulcerantes, etc. 

 
 During the year under review, the performance of the Ethical Products Division has not been upto expectation. Though the newly launched products like Dolobest Range, Nurobest OD and Rabulcer-D have done reasonably well, the performance of the old products like Epidosin, Mezica, Nimulase, Streptokinase, etc., was not very satisfactory and this has affected the overall profitability of the Division. Further, the performance was also impacted due to increased attrition rate, particularly in regions like Vijayawada, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Delhi, Guwahati, etc. and static per man productivity. However, steps have already been initiated for reversing the situation and the performance is expected to be better during the current year.

 
  Ventura Division 

 
 Ventura Division which was established for enhancing the focus on herbal products portfolio of the Company is now present in 13 Regions across the country, with coverage of around 30,000 doctors every month. Though the performance was good, the same could have been better but for the huge attrition rate. The Company is taking necessary steps for retaining the people to grow the business further. 


 
 Under the Ventura Division, the Company has launched three new products viz., LYCO-Q (Male Infertility Formulation), ARTHRID OIL (Anti-Arthritis Formulation) and UTRONORM FORTE (Fortified Version of Poly Herbal Uterine Tonic). 

 
 Animal Welfare Division 

 
 The Pharmaceutical Business also has a Veterinary Formulations Division which essentially caters to the requirements of Veterinarians, Hatcheries, Poultry Farms and Dairy Farms. Around 9,000 Veterinarians are met every month by the Field Staff and this Division reaches the customers through a network of 750 Stockists across the country and in Nepal. 

 
 The Animal Welfare Division of the Company deals with Liver Correctives, Calcium and Phosphorus Supplements, Anthelmintics, Antibiotics, Ectoparasiticides, etc. 

 
 The performance of Animal Welfare Division was marginally impacted due to the Avian Flu in the first quarter of the year under review. However, in view of the good performance in the subsequent quarters, the overall performance has been on the expected lines. During the year under review, the Company has launched a new product viz., IMMULAR (Herbal Immuno Modulator) under this Division. 

 

CONSUMER PRODUCTS BUSINESS 

 
 The Consumer Products Division (CPD) of the Company deals with the distribution of products marketed under Company's own brands viz., Woodward's Gripe Water (WGW) and EVA Range of Cosmetics. In addition, CPD also handles the National Distribution of Durex/Kohinoor Brand of Condoms manufactured by TTK LIG Limited and Kiwi / Brylcreem range of Shoe care, Hair care and Toiletry Products manufactured by M/s Saralee Household and Bodycare (India) Private Limited. 

 
 During the year under review, the performance of the Consumer Products Division was good. The year under review also saw the Company's entry into Skin Care Segment, with the launch of a Moisturizer and a Lip Balm under the EVA brand. Woodward's Gripe Water, the flagship brand of the Company, grew in excess of 7% in a market which is almost stagnant and it is expected that the growth process would continue during the current year too. 
 
 Last year, the Company launched a Baby Soap under the Woodward's brand name. Though it is a good product with an attractive packaging, it did not do as well as anticipated. It sells in pockets now. It is expected that it would gather momentum gradually. 


 
 The entire EVA range maintained its fast growth rate during 2006-07 also.

Two new variants viz., EVA Blush and EVA Snow were added to the Deodorant category and they are doing well. 
 
 The Kohinoor Pink recorded a growth of around 7% and its performance was affected due to competition from imported brands. However, the value added products like Kohinoor variants viz., Xtra Time and Triple Xtra and Durex have recorded good growth. Durex also helped the Company to get shelf-space in modern format outlets. 
 
 The Shoe care range did fairly well by improving its market share. However, in the hair care category, the growth of Brylcreem Gel was not as expected due to entry of new brands both in the organized and unorganized sectors coupled with huge ad-spend by the organized players.

The three letters that stand for quality consumer products at affordable prices. A reputation built across eight decades. An organization that started out as an indenting agency and grew to what it is today with path-breaking marketing ideas. Those core values that created TTK into a force to be reckoned with continue to define the framework of the TTK Group even today.

 

Tiruvellore Thattai Krishnamachari better known as TTK gave up law, joining with A R Doraisami Iyengar who was running a consumer goods firm in Chennai. The firm represented Levers Brothers. When Iyengar died in 1928, TTK was awarded the Levers Brothers agency. TT Krishnamachari & Co. was set up in the same year to handle the business and the rest is history!

 

Today TTK is a totally integrated manufacturing and marketing Group. While maintaining leadership in specific product categories in India, the TTK Group reaches out to the world with its core products - kitchenware, pharmaceuticals, condoms, medical devices, food products etc.

 

 TTK Healthcare Ltd., a part of the TTK Group was incorporated in 1958 and went public in 1985.

Over View

 

TTK Healthcare's most significant contribution to healthcare is the manfacture and distribution of India's first indigenous heart valve prosthesis - the tilting-disc TTK Chitra Heart Valve. This is the only Indian-made heart valve and is the most price-friendly in the world. So far, nearly 18,000 TTK Chitra valves have been successfully implanted in patients.

Design and Development


Unique in design, construction and fabrication, the TTK Chitra Heart Valve Prosthesis is one of the extensively researched, tested and clinically evaluated device in India.

Initially conceived in 1978, the heart valve being a critical implant, went through the most painstaking development for 12 years at the prestigious Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology (SCTIMST), Trivandrum, India - an autonomous Institute under the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India. The development also followed international protocols applicable to heart valve prosthesis.

Designed for long life, the development of the TTK Chitra Heart Valve was based on accelerated durability tests, amply confirmed by measurement of wear of valves explanted after many years of animal implantation. It is no mean achievement that the projected durability of the TTK Chitra Heart Valve far exceeds the life span of even the youngest recipient.
