MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS REPORT:
INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS:
The company is a Mini Ratna Catergory-I Public Sector
Undertaking under the control of Ministry of Defence dealing with three product
segments comprising of Mining & Construction Equipments, Railway Rolling
Stocks & Metro Rail Coaches and Defence Equipment & Aggregates. The
Mining & Construction equipment caters to the core sector of industry viz.,
mining, irrigation, steel, cement, power plants, infrastructure, etc., Railway
products caters to the Railways and Metro & Defence products cater to
Defence Services. The company has three manufacturing plants located at Kolar
Gold Fields, Bangalore and Mysore each of which is interdependent.
In addition to this, company has two new Divisions viz., Trading Division and
Technology Division. Trading division was formed with a view to maximize
business through sale of components and engineering spares. This will also
ensure supply of high-quality components for both in-house consumption as well
as existing customers. Leveraging on the company brand for both company and
non-company products to serve customers using the vast marketing network of the
company. Technology division has been set up with four business verticals viz.,
Defence, Aerospace, Rail & Metro, Auto & Mining for tapping the
potential of BEML's assets accumulated in terms of knowledge and talent built
over four decades. Drawing from the rich and diverse expertise of R&D in
various realms of technology with extensive use of CAD / CAE / CAM, it will
offer services like product design, process engineering, plant automation,
enterprise management services and implementation of collaborative product
engineering. Both the Divisions are just a year old and commenced its
operations recording a modest beginning.
To exploit the opportunities in the international market for earth moving
equipments a separate International Business Division as a SBU has been
established. As an export house with 'Star Exporter' status, company's
operations in the international market are growing. The Company has its
presence currently in more than 50 countries in Asia, Africa, Europe, Middle
East and Latin America.
The company has a subsidiary namely, M/s Vignyan Industries Limited located at
Tarikere wherein castings are manufactured bulk of which is supplied to
company.
OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS:
The opportunities for growth in all segments remain positive and buoyant. The overall
growth rate of the economy was around 8.7% in 2007-08. The industrial sector
growth has moderated slightly from 10.9% in 2006-07 to about 9% in 2007-08
while service sector growth continued to be robust at around 10%. The
agricultural sector has grown by about 2.6% in 2007-08. The business segments
of Mining & Construction Equipment and Rail & Metro are high growth
areas. Both Mining & Construction equipments have potential to grow with
the demand for these equipments growing with mining and construction segment
recording growth consistently. The Rail & Metro segment is also poised to
grow rapidly with the introduction of new trains for passengers as well as
goods movement and several metros opting for metro rail transit system. In the
Defence segment also business opportunities are growing with the budgetary
allocation for ground support equipment being consistent and offset business
opportunities presenting itself for incremental growth. These factors augur
well for the country which in turn translates into business opportunities in
all spheres for the company since the company serves the core sectors of
economy. The company has set for itself a sales target of Rs.31000.000 Millions
for 2008-09 (MoU Excellent) and is currently holding orders worth Rs.39530.000
Millions approximately. Barring unforeseen circumstances the company is
confident of meeting the target with matching returns.
OUTLOOK:
Metro transport is planned to be introduced in all cities in India having
population of more than 3 million. With this, the estimated requirement for
metro coaches in coming years is expected to be substantial. The company was
the first to introduce manufacture of metro coaches in India. These coaches
have been supplied to M/s DMRC. A new metro fabrication hangar is to come up at
the company's Bangalore unit for manufacturing metro cars with higher level of
indigenization. The company is also in the process of setting up an independent
R&D Centre of Excellence for metro rail systems and related hi-tech products
at Bangalore. With these steps the company stands at an advantage in exploiting
business opportunities that will present itself in future. Introduction of new
trains bringing several places within the railway network indicates the demand
for coaches and wagons to grow steadily. The company bagged an order valued at
Rs.13360.000 Millions for supply of 192 nos. state-of-the-art stainless steel
metro cars to M/s Delhi Metro Rail Corporation which will be the platform for
future growth as an established source of domestic supplier for a world class
product for other metros.
Railcoach Unit II has become fully operational during the year and has started
rolling out Rail coach shells from KGF as a feeder unit to Bangalore Complex.
This new plant has not only added capacity through parts and aggregates to
railcoach production, but also has become the most cost effective source for
components and structures for all rolling stock including wagons.
Construction and mining sector is one of the key growth sectors of the economy.
Infrastructure plays a key role towards pushing India's GDP to the desirable
level of 8% which will aid the construction industry. The company is well
positioned in its product profile for construction and mining equipments
catering to the largest to the smallest equipment in the segment covering
virtually the entire market requirement with wide and strategically positioned
after-sales-service network all of which augurs well for the company. The
estimated demand for earthmoving & construction equipment in the domestic
market for the period from 2007-2015 is estimated to be of order of US$ 40
billion of which Road Building will require US$ 8 billion, Construction
activity and Mining US$ 5 billion, Irrigation US$ 8 billion. The company is already
a key supplier of mining and irrigation and core manufacturing sectors like
steel and cement plants. The focus is now to increase the presence in the
construction segment for which equipments have been developed for construction
specific usage and dealers have been appointed to ensure adequate support for
marketing and after-sales-service.
The Defence segment largely depends upon the budgetary allocation made by the
Government for its procurement. The company is established source of supply of
ground support equipment for varied application in the defence. The company
holds comfortable order book position for defence equipment and with budgetary
outlay rising the outlook in this segment is promising.
