LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

 

Global Economy

 

The global economy recovered in 2010 after suffering a setback in the preceding year. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF)’s World Economic Outlook (WEO), April 2011, global activity expanded by 5 per cent in 2010, as against the 0.5 per cent fall in 2009. The improved medium-term growth outlook in the emerging and developing economies, with real GDP growth of 7.3 per cent in 2010, is primarily responsible for this rise. Advanced economies grew by 3 per cent in 2010 against the 3.4 per cent contraction in 2009.

 

World output is expected to ease at 4.4 per cent in 2011, owing to the associated downside risks to recovery, and 4.5 per cent in 2012. Economic activity in emerging and developing economies is forecast to grow at 6.5 per cent in 2011 and 2012 each, while that in advanced economies is forecast at 2.4 per cent and 2.6 per cent, respectively.

 

Economic prospects are uneven across regions. Growth and recovery prospects in the advanced economies are subdued, while among the emerging and developing economies, those with strong fundamentals before the crisis, smaller output losses during the crisis, and diversified export partners, are expected to have a fast-paced growth and recovery. The financial sectors of most advanced economies will be vulnerable to shocks. Healthy recovery in the credit growth of these economies will be supported by reform and repair of the financial sector. Emerging economies would need to focus on domestic sources of growth along with greater exchange rate flexibility.

 

The US economy, with a growth rate of 2.8 per cent, has almost reached the pre-crisis level of output in 2010. Economic activity slowed down in the second quarter of 2010 but picked up in the third and fourth quarter owing to the strong private demand accompanied with a fast-paced rise in consumer spending. However, the overall recovery has been slow as the labour market continued to remain sluggish. The US economy is yet to get over the high levels of retrenchment in 2008 and 2009. The new fiscal stimulus package announced by the US government in December 2010 is expected to push up the output by 2.8 per cent in 2011. The US economy is expected to grow by 2.9 per cent in 2012.

 

Real GDP growth in the Euro area was at moderate levels of 1.7 per cent in 2010, mainly driven by high growth levels in Germany. Stronger domestic demand pushed Germany’s growth to 3.5 per cent in 2010, against the 4.7 per cent decline in 2009. However, growth was subdued in France and Italy at 1.5 per cent and 1.3 per cent, respectively in 2010. Growth in Greece, Ireland, Portugal, and Spain was much lower, constrained by fiscal imbalances. Growth for the region is forecast to ease at 1.6 per cent in 2011 and 1.8 per cent in 2012 due to the financial stresses that would raise concerns from market participants.

 

The Newly Industrialised Asian Economies grew by a robust 8.4 per cent in 2010, mainly driven by a rebounding inventory cycle, strong domestic activity, and soaring demand for exports from these economies. Property markets in the region are also experiencing a price rise, for which macro prudential policies have been adopted. These policy measures are likely to affect the economy in the following year, moderating the growth to 4.9 per cent in 2011 and 4.5 per cent in 2012.

 

Japan’s economy grew by 3.9 per cent in 2010, owing to the stimulus measures that strengthened consumption in the third quarter and the rebound in exports. Growth in Japan is expected to slow down at 1.4 per cent in 2011, mainly due to the tsunami tragedy that devastated the country. This growth is expected to be supported by reconstruction activity in the third and fourth quarters of 2011. Reconstruction spending is expected to continue in

2012, though at a slower rate than in 2011. The economy is forecast to gradually recover with a growth rate of 2.1 per cent in 2012.

 

Activities in emerging and developing Asian economies are highly dependent on demand from advanced economies. Developing Asia continues to grow most rapidly among other regions in the world. The real GDP grew at 9.5 per cent in 2010, and is projected to moderate at 8.4 per cent in 2011. Policy tightening in economies that face demand pressure, policy adjustments in advanced economies, high levels of inflation and restrictive monetary policies, are expected to lead to this moderation. China and India are the main drivers for expansion in this region. China’s real GDP grew by an impressive 10.3 per cent in 2010, the highest growth level achieved after 2007. Accommodative credit conditions and Government-backed stimulus packages boosted investments in the country, which in turn resulted in an increased activity in most sections of the economy. However, economic expansion in China is projected to moderate at 9.6 per cent in 2011, on account of the policy tightening and fiscal stimulus coming to an end. India, on the other hand, grew at 10.4 per cent in 2010, owing to its strong growth fundamentals of high savings and investment rates, fast-growing labour force, and rapidly expanding middle-income class. The Indian economy is forecast to grow by 8.2 per cent in 2011 supported by an increase in domestic demand.

 

Strong macroeconomic policy fundamentals, sizable policy support, favourable external financing conditions, and strong commodity revenues have strengthened recovery in the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region. The region’s real GDP grew by 6.1 per cent in 2010, mainly driven by the robust demand from China and rising commodity prices. GDP growth of the region is projected to ease at 4.7 per cent in 2011, as Central American and the Mexican regions are highly subject to downside risks in the United States. Brazil, the largest economy in the region, expanded by 7.5 per cent in 2010 mainly due to expanding labour force, real wage growth, credit expansion, and growth in investments. Chile, Colombia and Peru, also experienced robust recovery on the back of improved macroeconomic policy framework, accommodative policies, easy external financing conditions and strong commodity prices. Mexico’s real GDP expanded by 5.5 per cent and is expected to moderate at 4.6 per cent in 2011. Growth in the Central American region was also subdued in 2010, due to weak prospects for tourism and remittances, and limited scope for policy support, a result of chronic public debt burdens. The exception to recovery in the LAC region, recession in Venezuela continued in 2010, reflecting severe supply bottlenecks, challenges from capital flight, and generally weak policy frameworks.

 

Real GDP of the Sub-Saharan region expanded by 5 per cent in 2010, as against 2.8 per cent recorded in the preceding year. The main drivers of the region are the oil exporting countries and the Low Income Countries (LICs). Sound and improved economic fundamentals, and effective shift in the region’s trading partners have supplemented most economies in the region during the crisis period. The South African economy grew at a modest rate of 2.8 per cent in 2010, and is projected to accelerate at 3.5 per cent in 2011, on the back of the anticipated favourable global environment. Strengthening of external demand and oil prices aided recovery in oilexporting economies like Nigeria, Angola, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon and Chad in 2010. In 2011, the region offers promising growth prospects with the real GDP projected to grow at 5.5 per cent.

 

The rebound in oil prices boosted the economy of  the Middle East and North African (MENA) region, with a real GDP growth of 3.8 per cent in 2010. The growth rates in the oil exporting nations was a result of the expansionary policies adopted by the Governments, while in the oil-importing economies, growth was supported by the strong capital inflows. The region’s overall economy is projected to further expand by 4.1 per cent in 2011.

 

Recovery in Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) was supported by high commodity prices, normalised trade and capital inflows, accommodative policies, and positive regional spillovers. Real GDP of the region increased by 4.6 per cent in 2010 and is further expected to accelerate by 5 per cent in 2011. The Russian economy grew by 4 per cent in 2010, underpinned by stockbuilding, and recoveries in private consumption and fixed investment. High commodity prices benefited the exports from the region, but at the same time, recovery in private consumption led to increased imports. The rest of the CIS region expanded by 6 per cent in 2010 and is forecast to moderate at 5.5 per cent in 2011.

 

Average growth in Central and Eastern Europe region strengthened in 2010, a result of normalisation of global trade and capital flows in the region. The region grew at an average of 4.2 per cent in 2010 and is expected to moderate at 3.7 per cent in 2011.

 

Outlook for Select Sectors

 

Automotives

 

The automotive industry (automobiles and auto components) in India has come of age and is today one of the key industries in the country with strong backward and forward linkages. The performance of the industry in recent years has been robust and is likely to remain buoyant, riding on the back of favourable demand and supply side factors. The spurt in the number of MNCs foraying into the Indian market bears testimony not only to the potential of the domestic market but also to the capability of the country to act as a manufacturing hub to serve the overseas market.

 

The automotive industry exhibited remarkable resilience even in the face of the global economic meltdown with production of over 17.9 million vehicles and exports of over 2.3 million vehicles during 2010-11, a growth of 27.5 per cent and 29.6 per cent, respectively. Recent trends indicate that the performance of the automotive industry has been robust, particularly in terms of exports, which exhibited a healthy CAGR of 24.5 per cent during the period 2004-05 to 2010-11 as against a CAGR of 13.3 per cent for production during the same period. Consequently, export orientation of the automobile sector increased from 7.3 per cent in 2004-05 to 13.3 per cent in 2010-11, indicating the increasing competitiveness of domestically manufactured vehicles.

 

Two wheelers remained the largest segment in terms of sheer volume, with a production level of 13.3 million units followed by passenger vehicles at 2.9 million units in 2010-11. Exports also mirrored production trends with two wheeler exports numbering 1.5 million and passenger vehicles aggregating 0.4 million units. Together, these two segments accounted for 85 per cent of the total automobile exports in volume terms. Growth in production of hybrid vehicles is likely to get fillip following the Union Budget 2011 which has announced exemption from basic custom duty and special CVD to critical parts/assemblies needed for hybrid vehicles apart from reduction in excise duty on kits used for conversion of fossil fuel vehicles into hybrid vehicles.

 

The strong and robust performance across various segments of the automobile industry has had spin off benefits for auto component manufacturers. The production in value terms for the auto component industry aggregated US$ 22 billion, recording an impressive CAGR of 26.7 per cent during 2003-04 to 2009-10. Auto component production is projected to nearly double to US$ 40 billion by 2015-16, which could result in the country’s share in global production reaching 3 per cent from the current level of 1 per cent. Besides strong underlying demand, the

dynamism in the auto component industry can also be attributed to the sector’s export performance. Auto  component exports trebled during the period 2003-04 to 2009-10 (CAGR of 24.5 per cent) to touch US$ 3.8 billion in 2009-10 and are projected to cross US$ 20 billion by 2015-16. The strong growth witnessed on the export front has resulted in the export orientation of the sector touching nearly 18 per cent in 2009-10. A perceptible aspect of

India’s exports of auto components is that almost two-thirds of export goes to the twin big markets of Europe and North America which corroborates the sector’s increasing competitiveness. In addition, the industry has also been amply supported by the spate of new models launched recently by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) as well as entry of several new OEMs into the Indian market which has provided a fillip to the demand, bolstering the order book position and growth prospects of component suppliers. The total investment into the sector has nearly trebled from US$ 3.1 billion in 2003-04 to US$ 9 billion in 2009-10.

 

India’s auto component industry today has the capability to manufacture the entire range of auto components such as engine parts, drives, transmission parts, suspension and braking parts, electrical parts, and body and chassis parts. Engine parts is the largest sub-segment accounting for more than 30 per cent of the sector’s production, followed by drive transmission and steering parts (share of 19 per cent) and body and chassis and suspension and braking parts (share of 12 per cent each). Though manufacturing costs in India are 25-30 per cent lower than its western counterparts, India’s competitive advantage stems from its full service supply capability, which makes the country a favourable sourcing destination. Besides, the quality standards in the sector are in line with global standards, corroborated by the fact that nine Indian companies in the automotive sector have received the coveted Deming Prize – the largest number outside Japan. With an impressive growth momentum in the automobile sector coupled with increasing disposable income and road development in the country, the automotive industry is expected to grow significantly in the foreseeable future.

 

Chemicals

 

The chemical industry forms the backbone of the industrial and agricultural development in India and also provides building blocks for downstream industries. This industry is a significant contributor to India’s national economic growth and has been registering a steady growth of about 7 per cent to 8 per cent over the past few years. The chemical industry accounts for about 14 per cent of the output of the Indian manufacturing sector, 13 per cent of total exports, and 9 per cent of total imports of the country. The size of the Indian chemical industry (basic, specialty and agro chemicals) is currently estimated at around US$ 60 billion. In terms of volume, the size of Indian chemical industry is twelfth largest in the world, and third largest in Asia.

 

The production of major basic chemicals in India amounted to 7.5 million metric tonnes (MT) in 2009-10, representing a growth of 2.7 per cent over the previous year. During the period April–September 2010, volume of production amounted to 3.9 million MT. Alkali chemicals (such as soda ash, caustic soda and liquid chlorine) were, by far, the largest segment accounting for 74.5 per cent share of total production during 2009-10, although, in terms of growth, it was the dye and dyestuffs segment which continued to exhibit maximum dynamism, essentially due to a smaller base.

 

Although India is a net importer of chemicals, of late, the gap between imports and exports has narrowed down. Growth in exports of chemicals and related products for 2009-10 stood at 1.4 per cent as compared to a negative growth in India’s overall exports of 3.5 per cent. The export growth figures recovered remarkably to 26 per cent during the first three quarters of 2010-11 (April-December) to reach US$ 22 billion for overall chemicals and related products, as compared to country’s overall export growth of 33.8 per cent during the same period.

 

The share of basic chemicals in the country’s overall exports has also exhibited a gradual upward trend, indicating that the growth in their exports has outperformed India’s total exports. Exports of basic chemicals (excluding petro-chemicals) from India increased from US$ 7.1 billion in 2005-06 to around US$ 10.8 billion in 2009-10, thereby witnessing a CAGR of 11 per cent. As regards 2010-11 (April-September), the share of basic chemicals and related products in India’s total exports stood at 6.1 per cent with exports having touched US$ 6.5 billion. During this period, organic chemicals witnessed the highest year-on-year growth of 130.3 per cent, followed by tanning and dye extracts which recorded a growth of 30.4 per cent to amount to US$ 778.1 million. On the other hand, inorganic chemicals grew by 17.1 per cent to aggregate US$ 3.9 billion. However, insecticides exhibited only a marginal increase of 3 per cent in export growth during April-September 2010-11, to touch US$ 485.3 million.

 

In terms of investments, the Indian chemical industry was among the top 10 sectors attracting the highest cumulative FDI inflows (US$ 2.8 billion) during the period April 2000 – March 2011, with a share of 2 per cent in total FDI inflows into India. During the period April–March 2010-11, FDI inflows in the chemical industry aggregated to US$ 398 million. The liberalised investment regime for this sector has been aptly supported by the financial sector, stimulating investment. The outstanding Gross Bank Credit of the Scheduled Commercial Banks  to the chemical industry (excluding petrochemicals) increased at a CAGR of 9.8 per cent from Rs.231.77 billion in 2004-05 to ` 405.81 billion in 2010-11. With inflow of investments, the industry has also been able to witness significant innovation as also increased investments in R and D, particularly in the knowledge arena such as specialty and fine chemicals.

 

Since products of the chemicals industry are used in a diverse range of manufacturing applications, its performance is generally correlated with the trends in the overall economy, as also the linkages with the rest of the world in terms of trade, investment and technology transfer. On the domestic front, with the reduction in tariffs, Indian chemical companies with strong systems and organized operations are likely to be benefited further. Companies with competitive advantages, like those having competence in the areas of high value added chemicals, conforming to international quality standards, could translate their capabilities and establish a dominant presence in both international and domestic markets.

 

With the per-capita consumption of chemical products in India being only a fraction of the global average, the opportunities for the domestic industry are enormous. In dyes, for example, India’s per capita consumption is 50 grams as against a world average of 425 grams. In case of polymers, the per capital consumption is 5.2 kilograms in India, as against the world average of 25 kilograms. Keeping in view the size of the domestic market and the growth of end user segments, the potential for growth in these sectors in India is immense.

 

Petroleum Products

 

The petroleum industry has been instrumental in fuelling the growth of the Indian economy. The petroleum and natural gas sector, which includes exploration, refining and marketing of petroleum products and gas, constitutes over 15 per cent of India’s GDP. The production of petroleum products during 2010-11 stood at 37.7 million MT as against 33.6 million MT as compared to the corresponding period of the previous year, thereby registering an increase of 11.9 per cent. Compared to this, the consumption of petroleum products as compared to the same period aggregated 128.8 million MT and is estimated to touch 146.1 million MT for the whole of 2010-11, up by 5.7 per cent from 138.2 million MT in 2009-10.

 

Indian petroleum refinery sector has established its ability to excel in international markets with export of petroleum products growing at a significant pace in recent years. While volume of exports of petroleum products increased at a CAGR of 22.9 per cent from 18.2 million MT in 2004-05 to 51 million MT in 2009-10, in value terms, the growth was even better (a reflection of rising oil prices) – from US$ 6.7 billion to US$ 30.5 billion, thereby registering a CAGR of 35.6 per cent. Following the overall strong recovery after the global meltdown, exports of petroleum products witnessed an appreciable growth of 44.7 per cent during the first three quarters of 2010-11 (April-December), to reach a level of US$ 28.2 billion as compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. Consequently, the share of petroleum products exports in total exports increased from 11.2 per cent in 2005-06 to 15.7 per cent in 2009-10, and further to 16.6 per cent during the first three quarters of 2010-11.

 

India’s domestic demand for oil and gas is on the rise. According to the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Government of India, demand for oil and gas is likely to increase from 186.54 million tonnes of oil equivalent (mtoe) in 2009-10 to 233.58 mtoe in 2011-12. Much of the growth would be contributed by the demand for transport energy, as the stock of vehicles is expected to expand with rising economic activity. The Eleventh Plan estimates indicate that the domestic demand for petroleum products in the terminal year (2011-12) would be at over 140 million tonnes. The refining capacity is projected to go up to 240 million tonnes per annum in the terminal year of the Eleventh Plan, as against the capacity level of around 150 million tonnes in the beginning of the Eleventh Plan. Such an expansion would lead to a surplus in refining capacity by around 90 million tonnes, which could be used for catering to export markets. The medium-term outlook for refining industry looks positive, due to stretched utilisation levels and new capacity build-up in the domestic market. The steady growth in the demand for petroleum products and the policies taken by Government to deregulate and decontrol the marketing of these products will help in generating more opportunities for this sector.

 

Textiles and Garments

 

The textiles and garment industry has an overwhelming influence on the economic development of India, being the second largest employer after agriculture. Through its contribution to industrial output, employment and exports, the industry plays a critical role in the Indian economy. The industry is estimated to account for 11 per cent of industrial production, 4 per cent of national GDP and 9 per cent of the country’s exports, and provides direct employment to more than 35 million people. The textiles industry in India is extremely diverse, comprising the hand-spun and hand-woven sector as also the capital intensive, sophisticated mill sector. The decentralised power-looms/hosiery and knitting sectors form the largest section of the textiles industry in India. India, with a share of 4.3 per cent in world textiles exports and 3.6 per cent share in world clothing exports, was ranked sixth globally in both these sectors in 2009. The performance of the industry in terms of exports was rather modest, owing to recessionary trends prevailing in the global economy. During 2009-10, textile and garments exports from

India amounted to US$ 19.1 billion – a marginal decline of 1 per cent over the previous year. Exports of readymade garments and cotton yarn and fabrics witnessed decline by 2 per cent and 11.1 per cent respectively. Manmade textile was the only sector which witnessed a positive growth in exports of 19.7 per cent. During the period April-December 2010, exports of textiles and garments aggregated US$ 15.9 billion, recording a year-on-year growth of 15.6 per cent, while its contribution to India’s total exports was 9.3 per cent, as against 10.8 per cent during the corresponding period of previous year, suggesting that its export performance lagged behind other

sectors. Mandatory excise duty of 10 per cent imposed on branded garments under the Union Budget 2011-12 for textile-made ups is likely to impact the sector adversely. Since it is a CENVAT Credit, yarn and fabric manufacturers may have to pay an increased excise duty at 5 per cent vis-ŕ-vis an optional and concessional 4 per cent duty paid earlier. This will exert further pressure on the margins of readymade garments and made-ups manufacturers who are already struggling with an unprecedented rise in input costs. However, the Textile Upgradation Fund Scheme (TUFS) allocation increased from Rs.22.7 billion to 29.8 billion which is a positive indication for further development of the industry.

 

With the demand from the two largest export markets of India, viz. the US and the EU, improving in the short term, the textile sector is expected to recuperate from the hitherto sluggishness that it witnessed since the economic slowdown. Indian exporters are, however, focusing on domestic markets and making attempts to diversify the export markets. Some of the emerging markets include UAE, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Australia, Mexico and Turkey. Going forward, the large textile manufacturing base, availability of adequate raw materials and labour, vast domestic market, and supportive Government policies, would strengthen the competitive position

of Indian textile and clothing industry.

 

Drugs and Pharmaceuticals

 

The global pharmaceutical industry is expected to grow by 5 per cent to 7 per cent in 2011 to touch US$ 880 billion compared to 4 per cent to 5 per cent in 2010. There is growing divergence in the pace of pharmaceutical growth among major markets. The 17 pharma-emerging countries (China, Brazil, Russia, India, Mexico, Turkey, Venezuela, Poland, Argentina, Indonesia, Ukraine, Thailand, South Africa, Egypt, Romania, Pakistan and Vietnam) are forecast to grow at 15 per cent to 17 per cent in 2011, to reach US$ 170 billion to US$ 180 billion. Greater government spending on healthcare and broader public and private healthcare funding are likely to be the key drivers of growth for many of the pharma emerging markets. China, the world’s third-largest pharmaceutical   market is predicted to grow by 25 per cent to 27 per cent to more than US$ 50 billion in 2011. The five major European markets (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the UK) collectively are expected to grow at 1 per cent to 3 per cent while the US is likely to grow at 3 per cent to 5 per cent.

 

India has emerged as one of leading economies when it comes to opportunities in the pharmaceutical sector. The Indian pharmaceuticals market is projected to grow to about US$ 20 billion by 2015, as against US$ 6.3 billion in 2005. Currently, the Indian pharmaceutical industry is ranked fourth in terms of volume and fourteenth in terms of value in the global pharmaceutical market. The industry has attained self-reliance in the production of formulations, and produces almost 70 per cent of bulk drug requirements of the country. India is also one of the major producers of generic drugs in the world.

 

Indian pharmaceutical companies have not been affected much by the global slowdown, largely because of cost advantages in medicine production and due to their long-term contracts, especially the generic manufacturers, with their preferred suppliers. Notwithstanding this, performance on the export front has been rather modest – exports of pharmaceutical products increased by a mere 1.8 per cent in 2009- 10 over the previous year to aggregate US$ 5.2 billion. However, during the first half of 2010-11 (April-September), exports witnessed a complete turnaround, growing by a healthy 27.6 per cent, from US$ 2.4 billion during April- September 2009-10 to US$ 3 billion during April-September 2010-11.

 

The rising middle and upper class who can afford high quality healthcare and the widespread adoption of health insurance products, which will enable a larger proportion of the population to access medical treatments, are expected to drive the Indian pharmaceutical market in the foreseeable future. In addition, significant economic growth rates, favourable demographics, and new intellectual property protection laws would provide further impetus to the industry.

 

Capital Goods

 

The capital goods industry forms the backbone of India’s manufacturing sector. Some of the prominent capital goods produced in India include heavy electrical machinery, textile machinery, machine tools, earthmoving and construction equipment including mining equipment, road construction equipment, printing machinery, dairy machinery, industrial refrigeration, industrial furnaces etc. The capital goods industry has been performing strongly, growing by a healthy 20.9 per cent during 2009-10, far better than both basic goods and intermediate goods (the IIP use-based classification). However, this performance could not be sustained in 2010-11, with the growth in the capital goods industry moderating to 9.3 per cent.

 

Production of machine tools in the country reached the level of around ` 13.05 billion by the end of 2009, showing a decline of 26.2 per cent, over the previous year’s figure of ` 17.68 billion. Notwithstanding this, export of machine tools has shown a steady increase in the last few years, with exports aggregating US$ 278.3 million in 2009-10. However, during the period April-December 2010, export of machine tools, witnessed a negative year-on-year growth of 7.9 per cent to amount to US$ 212.6 million. As far as textile machinery is concerned, India’s production was more than ` 40 billion in 2009-10, while exports aggregatedUS$ 123.2 million and imports were valued at US$ 1.4 billion. During the period April-September 2010, exports of textile machinery were valued at US$ 82.4 million and imports were US$ 784.9 million. India produces a wide range of construction and mining machinery. However, being a large and growing economy, domestic demand is greater than the production capacity and thus, a major portion of the demand is met through imports. During the period 2009-10, India’s export of construction machinery was valued at US$ 479.2 million and imports stood at US$ 2 billion. During the period April-September 2010, exports of construction and mining machinery were valued at US$ 117.8 million

while imports aggregated US$ 887.8 million. The process plant machinery and components sector in India is a heterogeneous segment of capital goods industry. During the period 2009-10, India exported process plant/machinery worth US$ 1.3 billion, while its imports were valued at over US$ 3 billion. During the period April-September 2010, exports of process plant machinery and components sector were worth US$ 655.6 million and imports amounted to US$ 1.5 billion. The electrical equipment and machinery sector comprises a range of products, such as transformers, switchgears, motors, generators and control equipment. India exported electrical

equipments and machinery worth US$ 1.9 billion during the period 2009-10 while imports aggregated to US$ 2.7 billion. During the period April-September 2010, exports of electrical equipments and machinery were valued at US$ 852.8 million while imports were worth US$ 1.4 billion.

 

On the whole, the outlook for the capital goods industry in India remains bright, particularly over the medium and long-term. The Union Budget 2011-12 has announced a number of initiatives to increase public investments in the infrastructure sector. Allocation to major infrastructure sectors, including power, road transport, shipping, urban infrastructure and railways, has been raised. This is likely to give an added impetus to the industry by resulting in more orders for the capital goods companies.

 

Electronics

 

The Indian electronic goods sector has been among the fastest growing sectors in the recent past. India has significant potential to develop and manufacture electronic hardware for the global markets and gain higher global share, besides meeting the country’s requirements in the converging areas of information, communication and entertainment. The Government of India has identified electronics hardware manufacturing sector as a key focus area for growth. The National Manufacturing Competitiveness Council was set up by the Government to provide a continuing forum for policy dialogue to energize and sustain the growth of manufacturing industries, including electronic hardware, in India.

 

During 2009-10, total production of electronics in India is estimated to have touched ` 1099.40 billion.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

 

Resources

 

During the year, the Bank received capital of 3 billion from the Government of India. As at March 31, 2011, the Bank’s total resources including paid up capital of  20 billion and reserves of 32.30 billion, aggregated to 524.22 billion. Exim Bank’s resource base includes bonds, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, term deposits, term loans and foreign currency deposits/borrowings/long-term swaps. The Bank’s domestic debt instruments continued to enjoy the highest rating viz. ‘AAA’ rating from the rating agencies, CRISIL and ICRA. During the year, the Bank raised borrowings of varying maturities aggregating to 260.95 billion comprising rupee resources of 126.69 billion and foreign currency resources of US$ 3.01 billion equivalent. Foreign currency resources of US$ 2.57 billion equivalent were raised through bonds, bilateral/club/ syndicated loans and US$ 0.44 billion by way of Buy-Sell swaps/on-shore deposits. As on March 31, 2011, the Bank had a pool of foreign currency resources equivalent to US$ 5.42 billion and outstanding Rupee borrowings including bonds and commercial papers of 249.17 billion. Market borrowings as on March 31, 2011 constituted 99 per cent of the total borrowings and 89 per cent of the total resources of the Bank. International Rating As on March 31, 2011, the Bank was rated Baa3 (Stable) by Moody’s, BBB- (Stable) by SandP, BBB- (Stable) by Fitch Ratings and BBB+ (Stable) by Japan Credit Rating Agency (JCRA). All the above ratings are of investment grade or above and are the same as the sovereign rating. Income/Expenditure The profit before tax (PBT) and profit after tax (PAT) of the Bank were at 8.68 billion and 5.84 billion respectively during the year 2010-11, as compared to the previous year’s PBT and PAT of 7.72 billion and 5.13 billion, respectively.

Interest expenses in 2010-11 at 23.51 billion were higher by 2.57 billion mainly due to the increase in borrowings. Administrative expenses as a per cent of total expenses (excluding provisions for contingencies) worked out to 2.79 per cent during 2010-11 as against 2.57 per cent during 2009-10. The average cost of borrowings (interest expenditure as a per cent of average borrowings) reduced from 5.39 per cent per annum during 2009-10 to 5.36 per cent per annum during 2010-11, mainly due to the lower Libor reset on foreign currency borrowings.

 

Capital Adequacy

 

The Capital to Risk Assets Ratio (CRAR) was 17.04 per cent as on March 31, 2011, as compared to 18.99 per cent as on March 31, 2010, as against a minimum 9 per cent norm stipulated by RBI. The Debt-Equity Ratio as on March 31 2011 was 8.92:1, as compared to 8.82:1 as on March 31, 2010.

 

Exposure Norms

 

Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has prescribed credit exposure limits for all-India term lending institutions, at 15 per cent of the financial institutions’ capital funds, effective from March 31, 2002, for exposure to individual borrowers   and at 40 per cent for group borrowers. An additional exposure upto 5 per cent (i.e. a total exposure upto 20 per cent of capital funds of the Financial Institution for Single Borrowers and 45 per cent of capital funds for Borrower Groups) can be taken in exceptional circumstances, with the prior approval of the Board. The exposure ceilings for individual borrowers and borrower groups can be exceeded by an additional five percentage points (i.e. 5 per cent of total capital funds) and ten percentage points (i.e. 10 per cent of total capital funds) respectively (over and above the maximum limits of 20 per cent and 45 per cent respectively), provided the additional credit exposure is on account of infrastructure projects in India. The Bank’s credit exposures to single and group borrowers as at March 31, 2011 were within the limits stipulated by RBI.

 

RBI has advised Financial Institutions to adopt internal limits on exposures to specific industry sectors so that the exposures are evenly spread over various sectors. The industry exposure limits adopted by the Bank for each  industry sector are 15 per cent of the Bank’s credit exposure to all industry sectors. The Bank’s exposure to a single industry sector was not more than 11.78 per cent of its total exposure as at March 31, 2011.

 

Award for Excellence

 

Export-Import Bank of India and Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) joined hands, in 1994, to promote ‘excellence’ among Indian companies through the ‘CII-Exim Bank Award for Business Excellence’ for best Total Quality Management (TQM) practices adopted by an Indian company. The Award is based on the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM) model which has undergone revisions recently and has been published as EFQM Excellence Model 2010.

 

In 2010, the Winners of the CII-Exim Bank Award for Business Excellence were Tata Group’s Tinplate Company of India Limited and Avantha Group’s Crompton Greaves Limited. In 2010, twenty-nine large business organisations and their operating units were commended by the jury for significant achievement (nine companies), and strong commitment to excel (twenty companies), in their journey towards business excellence. Recognising the growing significance of Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs) in the growth of Indian industry and economy, the assessment process has been simplified to promote the adoption of Excellence framework among the SMBs and to derive benefits to enhance their competitiveness. Two Small and Medium Business companies (Think soft Global Services Limited and Moolchand Medcity) were also commended for significant achievement. The jury also commended Perfetti van Melle (India) Private Limited for food safety.
