LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

History

The company is the flagship of company of "Jindal Group" of companies.  It was incorporated at Delhi, bearing Registration Number 5343 dated 23rd July 1970 and later the Registered office of the company has been shifted to the State of Karnataka.

 

The company’s factory is located in pollution free area on the outskirts of Bangalore city (the garden city of India) on the Bangalore-Pune-Mumbai National Highway No.4 and functioning excellently since 1968.The company had a humble beginning with one American press of 1500 tons capacity. With gradual expansion, the company is now having five extrusion presses of world renowned makes of different capacities with PLC controls and production capacity of 50,000 tons per annum with state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, widest range of profiles, record production, regular exports to advanced countries and long-standing clientele. The company is the only extrusion company in India having five extrusion presses under one roof and achieving highest production in India. The Company enjoys very high grading and reputation all over. Currently it covers more than 30% of extrusion market in India

 

Operations:-

The company has achieved an all time high production of 47015 MT of Aluminum extrusions during the year, as against 43263 MT during the last year registering a growth of about 8.67%. Inspite of continuous rise in raw material and other input costs as well as stiff competition prevailing in the extrusions industry, the company has been able to increase its revenue from Rs. 7679.000 millions to Rs. 8023.500 millions this year.

 

The profit for the year has registered a growth of 34% this year increasing from Rs. 565.400 millions last year to Rs. 758.600 millions this year.

 

During the year Wing Energy division generated 29572940 kWh of Wing energy, out of which 10218540 kWh were used for captive consumption at their Bangalore Factory and 19354400 kWh were sold  to Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited.

 

Revaluation of Fixed assets:

With a view to reflect  true and fair value of its assets in the books, the company has got its fixed assets revalued as at 31.03.2008 by independent expert valuer as evidenced by the valuation report submitted by them. The book value of such assets as on 31.03.2008 has been accordingly adjusted.

 

Exports:

Despite adverse conditions for exports during the year mainly due to weakening dollar, the company has been able to export 5056 MT of aluminum extrusions valued at Rs. 700.000 millions. This has been possible due to maintaining strict quality control, which has translated into acceptability of their products in the international market across the world. Exports were made to UK, France, Germany, Spain, Canada, Middle East, srilanka, Australia, Poland, Hong Kong, Uganda, Mauritius, Lebanon and South Africa. The company is exploring the possibility of further boosting exports. 

 

Industrial Scenario:

The impressive growth of the India Economy has spurred demand of aluminum products in the country in building automotive power and other sources and other sectors.  However, raw materials prices continued to remain inflated throughout the year due to wrong policies of primary metal producers who are maximizing their profits by jacking up prices of primary metals at the cost of consumers in tune with international  prices even when there is no corresponding increase in their input or other costs. This phenomenon has hampered higher growth of demand for aluminum products since they are made available to consumers in the market at higher prices. This trend is expected to continue.

 

Diversification and Expansion Plans:

As part of the company diversification plan, it is promising a new company incorporated by the name of Jindal Mines and Minerals Limited which is at present exploring possibilities of setting up facilities for beneficiation and pellestisation of iron ore as well as other related activities.

 

The company has entered into joint venture with Al Thuraya Mining Company, LLc, Oman for a copper mining project

 

The company is also planning to set up a foundry for melting aluminum scrap and ingots at dabaspet which is about 32 km away from its existing extrusion plant.

The key benefits of procuring high quality aluminium extrusions from Jindal are manifold :

Light weight - Aluminium weighing one third the weight of iron, steel, copper or brass and hence becomes easier to handle and transport.

Strength - Aluminium extrusions can be made as strong as the purpose demands.

Strength-to-Weight Ratio – The combined property of strength and lightness in aluminium makes it a key ingredient of many industrial applications.

Corrosion Resistant – Aluminium provides a natural protective layer against environmental, chemical and physical corrosive agents and hence, can never rust.

 

Heat Conduction – Aluminium conducts heat better on a cost and weight basis.

 

Electric Conduction – Aluminium has better conductivity over copper per unit weight and is universally used for power consumption.

 

Wide Acceptance – Extruded aluminium is widely used in the food packaging and chemical industry.

 

Ease of Fabrication – Aluminium allows the extrusion of almost any shape that can be fabricated using all conventional methods.

 

Ease of Assembly Design – Aluminium extrusions can be designed for easy assembly with other parts and even their surfaces can be mated to match up for easy joining.

 

Joinability – Welding, Soldering, Brazing are few methods employed to join extrusions. Bolts, rivets, clips and adhesives are also frequently used for this purpose.

 

Complex, Integral Shapes – Custom designed extrusions can be produced in intricate shapes which otherwise, would have to be created joining several individual parts.

 

Uniform Quality – Aluminium assures reliability and uniformity in quality and hence minimises rejection rates, corrective fabrication and production downtime.

 

Cost Effective – The tools used in extrusion are inexpensive compared to other production  methods.

 

Variety of Finish – A wide array of finishes ranging from paint, lacquer and enamel, textures from rough matte to mirror smooth and a variety of powder coated and anodized colours are available. The finish enhances durability and elegance of the product.
