LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

OPERATIONS:

 

The financial results reported above are for 12 months and the previous period is for 15 months and hence not comparable.

 

The sales during the year 2009-10 have grown by 7.2% on annualized basis. The Indian economy was severely affected by the global economic melt down in the first half of the financial year and there were signs of recovery in the second half. Consequently, the Indian glass market has not grown significantly and the export market has also dropped. During the year, there were two new entrants to the Indian glass market. The effective funds management along with cash generation has resulted in reduction in interest cost. The company has also  initiated many cost reduction projects. These efforts have helped in improving the operating income during 2009-10 from 13.30% to 16.20%

 

In Automotive Glass Business, the company has increased the capacity and with the Indian economy improving, the sales have increased.

 

During the year the company has received application money for equity shares amounting to Rs. 1920.000 millions and the equity shares have been allotted in April 2010.

 

FUTURE PROSPECTS:

 

The Indian glass market is expected to grow at a pace higher than the previous year. With the full presence of the competitors the company is expected to grow at a moderate rate. The company will continue to focus on the value added product and to work on the cost reduction and efficiency improvement projects to improve the operating profit margin.

 

The company plans to expand the capacity by putting a new facility at Bhiwadi, Rajasthan the land has been identified and the setting up of the facility has been initiated
