 BUSINESS REVIEW: 

 

·         STEEL BUSINESS: 

 
Steel industrial growth in the country for the year 2006-07 has indeed been a heartening one with the growth registering a significant impact especially in the Asian region. The Asian region alone accounts for 53.7% and growth rate rise of twelve percent over the previous year, and India being placed at the 7th position amongst top ten steel producing nations the world over with 44 million tonnes of crude steel production in the year 2006, which itself is 7.6% higher than that of year 2005. 

 

India thus has established itself as the fastest growing economy out of the 34 developing and emerging markets, and is poised to rank as the third largest economy in the world by the year 202O. GDP growth of the nation has set a higher trend in the year 2006. By the year 2010 over 125 million consuming and effluent households in India is projected to fuel significant demand in the steel sector, predominantly in construction and automobile segments. 

 

Auto industry and consumable durable industry continue to register considerable growth both in domestic and overseas markets. Consumption pattern of cold rolled galvanised products in these markets are expected to gear-up. Thus, demand of flat products, especially coated and colour coated ones, in the construction and industrial segments has recorded a lasting impact both on export and domestic fronts. The company has certainly geared-up to meet this demand largely on the export market, which it has consolidated until now, and new domestic markets being scaled thanks to the timely commissioning of its expansion units that enabled the company to raise itself to the growing consumer needs scenario. In this context, it is apt to emphasise the company's commendable completion of its Phase-I expansion including the Next-Generation Technology second Colour Coating Line successfully commencing commercial production from the 3" Quarter of year 2006. It may be further added that this line with its new full-fledged Near Infra Red technology of curing has become the world's first highest speed Colour Coating Line producing quality products of International standards. Coupled with this is world's largest solvent handling Re-generating Thermal Oxydiser (RTO) system to effectively recover fuel energy needed for curing on zero-fuel consumption, significantly contributing to economics of operating the Colour Coating complex. 
 
Subject had the privilege of displaying this new technology at International Forum of European Coil Coating Association (ECCA) at Maastricht, Belgium in May 2006. Consequently, the company has sought for Patent Right and Patent Application No. No.155/MUM/2007 has been filed with Office of The Controller of Patents, India. Quality of products from this line has been witnessed by several global producers, R&D organisations and paint manufacturers around the world, to take advantages of this technology in their own respective fields' development. It is no wonder that this state of the art technology has become the hallmark of future colour coating technology the world over. Subject is proud of this major leap forward and look forward for scaling further technological heights. The company, which has pioneered colour-coated products since 1991 in this country, is now in a prestigious position on the global map to offer its know-how expertise to other producers across the globe being the largest producer of this product in the Asian Region. 

 
The Colour coating complex since its commissioning of the new unit continued to achieve highest output realising 100 percent yield and thus continuing its thrust on the export markets including North American markets, covering colour coated products as well as galvanised coils and cold rolled coils. With commissioning of this hi-tech CCL-2 complex the company has successfully completed Phase-I of its expansion program of colour coated coils. 

 
The company's agreement with Thyssen Krupp Steel of Germany, which is in force since February 2005 for a period of five years, there have been significant contributions in overall quality improvements, technological innovations and modifications and quality control and the company has benefited in a big way by this association. 

 

The company is a continually growing one ever ready to embrace technological improvements and innovations. It is important here to state that price of zinc the main constituent for galvanising and further coating operation has registered a steep hike, which is still ongoing. With aluminium price comparatively much cheaper, your company has drawn up plans to produce soon zinc-aluminium alloy coated products under the Brand Name "METALUME". 
 
To utilise existing Cold Rolling Mill capacity to its maximum productivity and simultaneous diversification of finished products, the company has plans to install high hydrogen annealing furnace and skin passing operations to produce cold rolled annealed and skin-passed coils of high degree of quality to cater to down stream industries. Thus, with the above, the company is planning to embark on a Phase-II expansion of coating operation for diversification of these products as well as to modernise the existing cold rolling facilities to gear up to the ever growing additional market needs. 

 
The company, thus far, is continuing to maintain its efforts to keep pace with the production units of expansion by induction of skilled and trained manpower in critical areas to cover both the existing and expansion units to meet its target of achieving project completion at the shortest possible time. 

 
The company's training programs is ongoing in all levels of manpower needs by renowned professional experts, to impart sense of commitment, improved performance in the all areas of quality and productivity. The existing Human Resources Development facilities have been strengthened keeping pace with the needs of the company identified from time to time. In this connection, I must state that the level of utilisation and efficiency of production line has been well streamlined in all its operations.

 

Restriction in down-gradation, improvement in yield and reduction in cost have all been very successfully established down the line, with production-linked incentive scheme contributing to boosting up morale of employees and thereby company's overall growth. 

 

In addition, the company could acquire a modest 8 acre land adjoining the main plant complex, in which a new fly-arch roof design building has been established wherein all scrap generation of the plant have been systematically stored with all finishing lines and profiling lines housed in the complex, facilitating smooth material flow and full utilisation of the precious shop areas of the entire production units of the plant. 

 

With Phase-II expansion, planned for production of METALUME and high hydrogen annealing needs for production of cold rolled, annealed and skin-passed coils, the company is poised to achieve its full utilisation of the entire complex, churning out the largest colour coated production in Asian region besides the exotic Zinc-Aluminium alloy coated products (METALUME), which have significant market both in domestic and export fronts. 
 

·         REAL ESTATE BUSINESS: 

 
Firstly, the lucrative opportunities unfolding in this segment, reflected in the anticipated surge in the realty sector from its current size of USD 12 bn to emerge as a USD 45-50 bn industry over the next five years, on the back of its recognition as one of the major engines driving economic growth, employment generation and wealth creation, and contributing to 10 per cent of the GDP directly and 30-40 per cent of GDP indirectly due to its direct and strong linkages with core industries like cement and steel, makes it one of the most attractive sectors to extend our presence in. 

 
Secondly, while steel has always been the mainstay of their company, most of their real estate initiatives transpired through a number of Special Purpose Vehicles within The Group. With the realty sector rapidly evolving and with a view to build a strong foundation by corporatising, the management had therefore consolidated the real estate businesses under one entity and leverage the attractive opportunities unfolding in this sector in an organised and profitable manner. 

 
Further the management strongly believes that this strategic consolidation will provide the company a strong platform to capitalize on the Ajmera Group four decade plus experience, its track record and credibility of having successfully developed properties over 17 mn sq. feets in Mumbai, Gujarat etc. its leadership ranking by virtue of being one of the largest realty player in the realty market of Mumbai, its reputation for differential thinking reflected in its innovative and perceptibly differentiated landmark offerings of housing and commercial complexes in Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, Rajkot, Ahmedabad and Surat and lastly leverage its pedigree of being a pioneer best manifested in the many firsts it has to its credit : Conceptualising and acting as facilitator for India's first dome theatre (Imax), Mumbai's first shopping mall and developing the largest private garden sprawled over 25 acres in Mumbai. 
 
The company envisages that backed by the impressive lineage and track record, this strategic foray will help build an even stronger brand image and visibility in the realty space, render size and scale to their operations going forward, significantly increase their net worth which is critical to participate in big-ticket, high-margin capital intensive, innovative and long-term projects, and which will facilitate our emergence as one of the largest players in the sector over the foreseeable future and also help them firmly establish their footprints across the country. 

 
Further, with the liberalized FDI norms, several international firms are likely to enter the Indian real estate sector with ambitious real estate projects for development of residential townships, technology parks and other infrastructure projects. It is expected that the models for foreign player's entry and collaboration will encompass pure financial investment to provide base capital required to undertake such projects, joint ventures route and joint development agreements. Recognizing that foreign players are likely to approach recognized, organized and corporatised Indian players for JVs and joint development agreement, the company believes that this move is well timed as their consolidation and branding strategy will help meet the criteria of foreign players looking at establish alliances with Indian counterparts, like itself. 

 


Driving Future Value: 

 
The various segments which may be broadly classified for the company's real estate business are Residential, Commercial and Retail. In addition to its pan India expansion plan for steel business, the company intends to reinforce its dominance in the real estate business by embarking upon the following measures: 

 
 (a) Develop unique properties in the commercial, residential and retail space to have a stronghold in all segments of the business. 

 
 (b) Have a strategic mix of capital intensive scalable long-term projects and immediately encashable projects resulting in a fast turnaround of projects and re-deploying funds in newer projects. 

 
 (c) Amply address the needs of consumers across the entire spectrum: from the ultra luxurious, to the affluent and to the middle and lower middle class consumers. 

 

 

Internal controls and system: 

 
In this year, the company has successfully implemented SAP system vastly improving the management information system and integration of various operations and functions of the organisation all under one umbrella. This has resulted in harmonious monitoring and regulation of operations in a systemised manner in each and every activity of the plant. Correct use of funds, proper budgeting, efficient monitoring and its regulation by due approval and authorization policy enforcement have resulted in the use of funds in the most profitable and correct manner. All these have been implemented in every area commencing from raw materials, project implementation, and project monitoring, production, quality control and logistics. 

 
The Video Conferencing system of the company continues to prove its worthiness during the execution of projects with foreign vendors, saving considerable time and money related to engineering changes, inspection, scheduling, approval of drawings and commercial negotiations, securing the time of implementation as well quality decisions taken in an exemplary manner. 

 


The Internal Audit Program:

 
All the actions taken last year by Internal Audit Program conducted by the external agency for self-assessment audit guides for conformity to the Indian Accounting Standards, prevailing Laws and company Policies have been implemented and continue to be implemented. The Audit Committee appointed by the Board selectively reviews its adequacy, addresses the significant findings, and follow up needs on such issues, which are given top priority and implemented ceremoniously.
