MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS INDUSTRY STRUCTURE & DEVELOPMENTS

 

The dairy industry in India is growing at a rapid pace. With India maintaining its status as largest producer of milk in the World with annual growth rate of 3-4%, the dairy industry in India is poised for major development. It is expected that 15-20% of the total milk produced in the country is processed by organized sector.

 

Looking at the bright prospects, more and more corporate are entering in this field, which will give a further boost to this sector.

 

Due to the growing demand of nutritional products from milk in the world market, the Company has diversified in the production of value added products like edible grade casein, WPC, edible grade lactose etc. To take care of growing demand, the Company has taken firm steps to go for production of pharma grade lactose.

 

 

OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

 

The world dairy market is also under tremendous change. On one side, the demand has gone up due to economic growth and on the other side subsidies available to the developed nations are phased out resulting into lower production of milk in those countries. With this background, Indian milk industry has tremendous edge by way of export to world market.

 

The Indian industry is still facing trade barriers like restriction on export of edible grade milk products to certain markets of the developed markets (the whole of EU and Mexico etc.).

 

The international casein market is going strong. Globally there is a shortage of milk solids and milk is diversified away from Casein manufacturing towards the manufacture of other dairy products. The situation may change when milk production will increase in the milk major countries like Australia, New Zealand etc.

 

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The Company achieved a turnover of Rs.1713.8 Millions as against Rs. 917.3 Millions in the previous year. It has earned net profits before tax of Rs. 41.6 Millions as compared to Rs.72.7 Millions during the previous year. The Company exported products worth Rs 182.2 Millions during the year under review as compared to Rs.77.3 Millions during the last year.
