LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:

 OPERATIONS: 

 
 During the year, the Company has successfully delivered 6 (Six) vessels taking to the total up to 95 vessels delivered so far by the Company. The Company has posted a turnover of Rs. 70.977 Millions, an increase of about 29.56% as compared to Rs. 54.785 Millions in the previous Financial Year. The Company recorded a net profit of Rs. 11.629 Millions as against Rs. 8.368 Millions in the corresponding previous financial year depicting a rise of 38.97%. The Company could achieve a rise in overall profitability through a judicious mix of strategies and cost control measures. 

 
 During the year, the Company received prestigious orders from Pacific First Shipping Pte, Singapore, Essar Shipping and Logistics, Cyprus and other repeat orders from its existing clients Vroon Offshore B.V., Netherlands, Lamnalco Limited, Cyprus and Gujarat Ambuja Cement. 

 
 The construction of the upcoming shipyard of the Company at Dahej is under process as per the projections. The necessary environmental clearance was accorded by the Ministry of Environment and Forest for the Dahej yard. 

 
 Further, the Company had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for acquisition of Vipul Shipyard (Vipul) situated adjacent to the Company's existing shipyard at Magdalla Port, District-Surat, Gujarat. With this the Company will add substantial land with a good water front to its resources along with slipway and other necessary plant and equipment for shipbuilding. This acquisition will result in augmenting the resources of the Company for further consolidation of shipbuilding capacity, at its Surat facility, in the growing segments of offshore, coastal shipping and other avenues of shipbuilding. 

 

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT 

 


 Global shipbuilding industry is a US $ 20 bn industry. In the post World War II era, the shipbuilding industry had gradually shifted from European countries and USA to the Asian countries due to cost advantages. Currently, 
 the shipbuilding industry is dominated by South Korea, Japan and China with a combined market share of around 77%. India has less than 1% market share, which is expected to grow in the coming years by leveraging on cost competitiveness.

  
 The world order book stands at 297* mn DWT as on October 2006 with Indian Shipyards having a share of around 0.4%. Replacement demand is driving the growth for the shipping segment (tankers, containerships, dry bulk ships), whereas replacement demand coupled with increasing demand for offshore vessels on the back of Oil and Gas companies driving the growth for offshore segment (Anchor Handling Tug Supply, Platform supply vessels, Pollution control vessels, Oil Rigs etc). 

 
 As equipment cost is more or less standardized across the world, low cost labour drives the advantage in favour of Asian Countries. According to a research, India's order book is estimated to grow by 4 times in the next 5 years. Given the robust demand coupled with Government initiatives and labour cost advantage, India is all set to gain a sustained growth in the shipbuilding Industry. 

 
 *Source : Angel Broking's report on shipbuilding.


 
 OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS:


 
 Globally, the average age of the fleet is more than 20 years. Rising insurance costs, International Maritime Organization's (IMO) regulation mandating conversion of all oil tankers to double hull by 2010 has given a further push to replacement demand.

 
 With various port projects and investments envisaged in the National Maritime Development Policy (NMDP), the Indian Government had unveiled its initiatives to boost the shipping sector. Allowing 100% FDI in the sector, introduction of Tonnage Tax and developing the coastline and envisaging an addition of 2,400 mercantile ships under the proposed 'Sagarmala' project are some of the positive initiatives under the said policy of Government.


 
 The Indian Government initiatives coupled with increased ship replacement demand will create new opportunities for the shipbuilding industry


 However, the major challenge is lack of suitable infrastructure. Steel, main engine and major equipment together account for over 60 per cent of the cost of a vessel and for ships built in India, almost all of these have to be imported. Efforts need to be made to attract major engine and equipment makers to set up manufacturing units in the country, which would make the input costs of these materials for building ships competitive. 


 
 OUTLOOK: 

 
 Rapid growth in sea born traffic coupled with the International Maritime Organisation's (IMO) mandate to phase out, the single hulled tankers and vessels that have been in service for more than 15 years, by 2010 will lead to scrapping of 38% of the world's mercantile fleet.


 
 Offshore vessels remain the mainstay of the order book of the Company. The Company has capitalised on its abundant, low-cost skilled labour with increased productivity to become one of the leading manufacturers in this niche segment. The future growth of the Company is backed by strong order backlog coupled with capacity expansion which should lead to a faster execution rate for the order book and increased order intake capability. As the equipment costs are more or less standardised across the world, the labour cost is the key differentiating factor, where the Indian shipyards have the edge over shipyards in other countries. 


 
 The Gujarat government has decided to come up with a comprehensive shipbuilding policy to encourage shipbuilding and ship repairing industry in the state. The incentives under the proposed policy would definitely give an edge to the Companies operating in the state over the Companies in other states. Further, the request of the industry to extend the subsidy regime, which is set to expire in August 2007, is under the consideration of the Government of India. 


 Increased demand for vessels coupled with labour cost advantage and government support and initiatives would enable the Company to have a robust growth in future. 


  FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE WITH RESPECT TO OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE: 

 
 The Company is India's largest private shipbuilding Company in terms of revenues and profits. The total income is Rs. 70.977 Millions in financial year 2006-07 as against Rs. 54.785 Millions in 2005-06, registering a growth of 29.56%. The profits before taxes aggregated to Rs. 16.813 Millions in 2006-07 as against Rs. 12.663 Millions in the previous financial year. The Profits After Taxes (PAT) increased from Rs. 8.368 Millions to Rs. 11.629 Millions, recording a growth of 38.97%. Earnings Per Share (EPS) is increased to Rs. 22.84 from Rs. 19.77.
