LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

OPERATIONS:

 

During the year, the total income increased to Rs. 9,041.28 Millions compared with Rs. 6,357.27 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2010. The financial year 2010-11, the Company has maintained its growth. PBDIT and net profit after tax stood at Rs. 1,616.94 Millions and Rs. 672.51 Millions respectively compared with Rs. 1,105.06 Millions and Rs. 455.51 Millions for the corresponding previous year.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

The rising middle class and its conscious efforts to demand hygienic product was skillfully turned into a profitable opportunity. During the period their sales graph goes up from Rs. 6,341.56 Millions in 2009-10 to Rs. 9,023.46 Millions which is an appreciable performance of the Company. During the same period, net income rose from Rs. 455.51 Millions to Rs. 672.51 Millions. This kind of spectacular performance is a result of vision, long term planning, and meticulous implementation, dedicated efforts of employees and unfailing faith of shareholders in the management team.

 

 

The industry in which the Company operates is at a very nascent stage in India as the usage is largely restricted to airlines and railways. However with increased awareness for health and hygiene the demand for AFCs and AFRs is expected to pick up over the next couple of years in a big way. Moreover, AFCs and AFRs are slowly and steadily replacing other packaging substitutes like plastic, porcelain and glass containers as AFC’s offer various advantages; Aluminum Foil has amazing properties. It is light weight, aesthetic, attractive, resistant to odour, water, air, light, gas, oil and grease and possesses high thermal and electrical conductivity features. All this adds up to a highly versatile product that can be used in myriad applications from the traditional food industry to the hi-tech electronics and telecommunications industry.

 

They have established good manufacturing practices in accordance with international standards. They have been accredited with certification from BRC (British Retail Consortium) implying compliance with Global Standards for packaging and packaging materials.

 

Presently, shares are listed at both BSE and NSE. They are regularly traded in active mode in single segment.

 

Company is also aware about its social responsibilities and ethical responsibility. Company strives to provide a healthy, safe and secure working environment for its entire staff. It provides adequate on the job training, promotion and rewards for meritorious work. It also covers the employees with medical insurance. Their people are technically best in their knowledge and application. Management provides a climate which helps employees at all levels to realise their maximum potential. For needy and under privileged, Company provides helps by various means and ways to fulfil it’s social obligation.

 

Similarly, other stake holders like suppliers, financial institutions, distributors etc are also rewarded so that a family bond is created among all these which ultimately has magnifying beneficial effect for all. Shareholders who are the pillars of the Company have been benefited through higher dividend and increased intrinsic value of their shares. This has to rise further in future as Company scales new heights.

 

BUSINESS PERFORMANCE:

 

The expansion project of Rs. 2400.000 Millions was completed in March, 2010 and commercial production began from April, 2010. Based on the enhanced installed capacities, which were put to use during the year, the Company could achieve turnover of Rs. 9,023.46 Millions. However, the optimum utilisation of the capacities will be reflected in the sales for F.Y.2011-12

 

The Company is getting the tax benefit for 100% Export Oriented Unit U/s 10B of Income Tax Act, 1961.

 

Company’s property and plants are fully insured against predictable perils. They are maintained and serviced periodically to facilitate continuous production. Employees are sent for training to acquire and upgrade their job skill. Modern shop floor practices are followed to reduce fatigue and increase productivity.

 

Company considers employees as a business partner. Based on their performance they are rewarded and wherever necessary, imparted with skill and training so as to improve their contribution. This helps to maintain cordial industrial relations.

 

 

CURRENT YEAR'S OUTLOOK AND CAPACITY EXPANSION:

 

On completion of expansion project in April, 2010, the installed capacities have increased three times from the existing capacities with a wide range of product mix, which shall result in higher turnover and profitability of the Company.

 

Company enjoys healthy position in the international market. Quality of the Company’s product is best and comparable to any other products of World class suppliers. The expansion shall enable to capture the export market and the ever expanding retail market. Considering all these factors the board is very much optimistic about times to come.

 

INDUSTRY REVIEW

 

GLOBAL PACKAGING INDUSTRY

 

A major part of the global packaging industry is based in Europe, North America, Asia and Latin America, dominated by the consumer segment (70 percent) and the industrial segment accounting for the rest. The global packaging industry is growing at around 3.5 percent per annum. The concept of green packaging is gaining prominence. This segment is being catalysed by advanced technologies and even though it entailed a higher production cost, the segment is likely to enhance market share and emerge as a US$ 107.7 bn segment by 2011. This segment is finding growing preference following environment concerns, eco-friendly packaging, carbon emissions and waste reduction targets specified by countries. This green packaging segment, comprising aluminium packaging, is also likely to register consistent growth on account of increasing health awareness, higher incomes, growing economies, dearth of natural resources and rising energy consumption.

 

INDIAN PACKAGING INDUSTRY

 

India is the world’s eleventh largest packaging consumer, with a market size of US$ 550-billion that is expected to grow 18-20 percent (presently 15 percent). Evidently, it is projected that increased incomes will translate into higher industry growth. The Rs.650000.000 Millions Indian packaging industry is fragmented and dominated by unorganised players. Packaging accounts for only around 11 percent of aluminium use in India compared with a global average of around 20 percent. With an increase in disposable income in the hands of the rising middle-class, health awareness and a preference for eco-friendly packaging and serving solutions, aluminium container consumption is set to increase rapidly.

 

 

 

 

DEMAND DRIVERS RAILWAYS

 

Indian Railways is the world’s fourth-largest railway network, transporting more than 18 Millions passengers daily. It runs more than 17,000 trains a day. Even a marginal change in aluminium packaging consumption by the Indian Railways can potentially increase demand for such products in a significant way.
