YEAR IN RETROSPECT

 

The Plant built in the previous year working as an Export Oriented Unit ( Plant 1) was officially inaugurated on 4th September 2006, by Hon. David Cameron, MP, and Mr. George Osbourne, MP, United Kingdom in the presence of the special guest Hon. Mr. Vilasraoji Deshmukh, Chief Minister of Maharashtra State and Sir Anthony Bamford, Chairman JC Bamford Excavators Limited. The Operations of Plant 1 have increased many folds and the sales achieved by the Plant 1 during the year ended March 2007 were Rs. 1406.481 Millions as against Rs. 202.965 Millions in the previous year ended March 2006. (a growth of 593%). The Plant 1 exports fabricated components to JCB group companies in UK and during the year has started supplying Fabricated Components in the domestic market to JCB India Limited, Ballabgarh and the requirements of Plant 2 of the company. The CIF value of the export of companies during the year from Plant 1 was Rs. 881.743 Millions against Rs. 202.965 Millions in the previous year (a growth of 334%)

 

As a part of expansion and diversification plan, the company has built one more manufacturing plant (Plant II) adjacent to existing Plant I For assembling earth Moving Machineries. Plant II has started its manufacturing actgivity form October 2006 and has introduced two models of excavators namely JS 200 and JS 210. Excavators manufactured by Plant II are well accepted in the domestic and export markets. Plant 2 produced 143 nos of excavators during the year, and the total sales value form Plant II was Rs. 495.414 Millions including FOB value of Exports of Rs. 18.276 Millions. The Machines in domestic market are sold to JCB India Limited. Considering the growing demand for excavators in the domestic market due to Government of India allocating more funds to infrastructure development and expected Indian growth in GDP of more than 8% in the years to come and the cos competitiveness of Indian built earth moving machineries in the International market, the company has plans to expand the range of excavators and other construction equipments manufactured by Plant II in the domestic and international markets. The new models of excavators like JS 80 and JS 140, Wheeled Loading Shoved 432 ZX, Vibromax Road Compactors VM115 etc are being introduced in the current year ending March 2008.

 

The company has built a design centre during the year adjacent to Plant II with a maximum capacity up to 100 designers for taking the advantage of vast pool of talented designers and engineers available at competitive cost in India, in general, and around Pune, in particular. It has commenced it operation form October 2006. The centre is an Information Technology (IT) enabled engineering design service provider to JCB group companies in India and Overseas. The Design Centre runs Unigraphics NX4 and as a part of the JCB PLM Team Centre. The Centre is linked to the UK via a 2Mbps optical link and currently support it’s customers for 18 hours per day. Operations of the design centre are expected to expand during the current year.

 

During the year, the company has implemented SAP, and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, in view of growing business volume of the company. The system is getting satabilized.

 

The total Net Sales of the company for the year were Rs. 1867.206 Millions as against Rs. 202.965 Millions for the previous year, registration a robust growth fo 819% in the very second year of its commercial operations. While building new capacities, expanding the existing capacities and implementing diversification plans, the company in the initial stages of the implementation of the said projects has incurred a Loss before tax (after interest and depreciation charges) of Rs. 649.779 Millions and Loss after tax of Rs. 655.904 Millions for the year as against Rs. 229.337 Millions and Rs. 242.129 Millions respectively for the previous year. It is important to note that the percentage of Loss before Tax to Net Sales has substantially reduced to 35% during the year as against 113% during the previous year. The main reasons for increase in losses in absolute terms are :-

 

·         Sales Volumes though increased over the previous year; were below the break-even levels of increased manufacturing capacities during the year. This was due to normal gestation period required for scalling up opf the projects at the desired level

·         Variable costs like consumables, direct labour etc. were higher since manufacturing systems are in the process of development and stabilization

·         The cost of self of power is higher as compared to power supplied by Maharashtra State Board (MSEB). Presently, the company is heavily dependent on the self of power.

 

The company has initiated many operational improvements such as localization of components, additional power supply from Maharashtra State Electricity Board ( MSEB). Better capacity utilization of Plant I through domestic sales ad per applicable rules and improvement in overall productivity. All these steps are expected to improve the profitability of the company.

 

Company’s future strategies and direction continue to revolve around its mission i.e. to exceed customer expectation through innovation, continuous improvements in quality and cost and people involvement.

 

Company is focused on developing its employees by imparting the in-house, out-side training course which has been helping to meet International quality norms. As a result; the products manufactured by the company are as per International quality norms.

 

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY ( CSR) :-

 

The company along with the Lady Bamford Charitable Trust (LBCT) has adopted Ambi Village during the year. The village is situated very close to the Company’s Plants.

 

LBCT has undertaken several initiatives as detailed below to raise the standards of living and well being of Ambi’s inhabitants:

 

·         Education:-

 

Additional classrooms were constructed. Supplemental classes were constructed in English language as well as computer for which three teachers were inducted by LBCT with the cooperation of the school authorities.

 

·         Health and Hygiene:

 

Responding to the needs of the villagers, more than hundred personal toilets were constructed and provided to th beneficiaries on a cost sharing basis.

 

About five hundred villagers benefited form a health check up camps organized by the Company along with the local hospital. Necessary treatments and medications were also provided.

 

Around thirty villagers were trained in health and hygiene awareness to spread the message.

 

·         Skill Development and Income Generation Scheme:-

 

The surrounding areas of the company and Ambi village have many floriculture units. Hence, a three day training programme was organized along with the nearby Horticulture Training Centre. Twenty five interested village youths took the advantage of the training programme.

 

The success of these CSR initiatives was largely due to whole hearted supported form Ambi Villages. This has encouraged the company and LBCT for taking greater efforts in these directions.
