September 2010. The Appointed date of the Scheme was 1st April 2009.
In terms of the Scheme, on 11th October 2010, the Company issued
10,00,000 fully paid Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs.10/- each and 1,50,000
equity shares to the equity shareholders of erstwhile Optim. Accordingly, the
results of the Company for the year 31st March 2011 include the
figures of Optim with effect from 1st April 2009
During the year,
the Company invested in a company, Virtuous Shopping Centres Private Limited
('Virtuous'). Virtuous is a Special Purpose Vehicle and a joint venture company
of subject and Virtuous Trustees Private Limited and others, nominees of
Xander. The main object of Virtuous is to develop and deal in retail malls and
shopping centres. The Company has invested a sum of Rs.6.732 millions in
Virtuous and holds 66.66% of the paid up capital.
The Company
continues to view food and grocery (F and G) retailing as a substantial
opportunity, which is worthy of being seriously pursued in the medium term. F
and G remains one of the largest categories and is estimated at around 60% of
consumer spending.
Share of spend and
organized retail penetration
Nevertheless,
given the significantly lower gross margins on F and G vis-a-vis other
merchandize (and therefore formats), the need to evolve a economically viable
business model is viewed to be critical. The performance of Star Bazaar
business over the last two years continues to be encouraging and has aided the
pursuit of the stated expansion plans with greater conviction. Nevertheless,
this business continues to incur operational losses, especially on account of
the under absorption of shared services and corporate costs. Also, they believe
this trend would continue until the business reaches a critical mass over the
next few years.
During the year,
the Company opened four new stores in
Star Bazaar
Hypermarkets
Subject has a
franchise and a wholesale supply arrangement with Tesco Plc of
The plan and key
initiatives in respect of the Star Bazaar stores include:
• The intention to
scale up the number of stores in the country to about 50 over the medium term.
The pace of
roll-out is hindered primarily on account of slower than expected pace of
delivery of signed properties by developers and they see this to be a
continuing challenge even going forward.
• Large box format
- as with the existing store portfolio, the intent in the medium term is to
continue to focus on rollout of Star Bazaar stores with a footprint in the
region of fifty thousand square feet, especially given the need to contain per
square foot rentals. Further, as a conscious strategy additional square footage
has been secured in select locations in order to facilitate sub-lease to
adjacent retail offerings and improve realization.
• Local sourcing
and consumer catchment - establishing robust regional sourcing arrangements is
seen to be inevitable in-order to service a chain of large hypermarkets in a
profitable manner. Also, primarily from a traffic and consumer behavior
perspective, they do not see 'outside city limits' stores being sustainable and
hence the intent is to continue to focus on the immediate hinterland of a
proposed store and the catchment it affords.
• Emphasis in Star
Bazaar to be on Food as well as Non-Food merchandize - this from a gross margin
as well as from range availability perspective for the customer. However, they
are yet to witness any material shift in mix towards non-food merchandize.
• Own label
offerings - over time as the branding of the stores get entrenched, emphasis
would be on increasing the contribution of 'own label' offerings across
categories. This emphasis is also consistent with the estimated share of
private label merchandize seen in the case of entrenched international
retailers.
The results of the
Company have broadly been in line with expectations and mostly encouraging -
with existing stores reporting strong same store sales growth especially in the
last two years.
They see
increasing visibility of scaling up this operation into a consequential and
eventually profitable business over the next few years, aided by the strategies
being pursued and the expertise accessed from Tesco through the franchise and
wholesale supply arrangements. However, in the interim this business continues
to warrant significant investment of capital and is expected to take a few more
years before the shared services and central costs get covered by the
contribution generated from stores.
SHARE CAPITAL
In terms of the
Scheme of Amalgamation Sanctioned by the High Court of Bombay, the authorised
share capital of the erstwhile Optim was combined with authorised share capital
of the Company.
Accordingly, the
Authorised share capital of the Company now stands at Rs.610.500 millions
divided into 60050000 equity shares of Rs.10/- each and 1000000 Preference
shares of Rs.10/- each. The Authorised Share Capital is now proposed to be
increased to Rs.1000.500 millions divided into 99050000 equity shares of
Rs.10/- each and 1000000 Preference Shares of Rs.10 each. Pursuant to provisions
of section 94 of the Companies Act, 1956, the approval of the members to the
proposal is being sought at the ensuing Annual General Meeting.
Consequent to the
allotment of shares in terms of the Scheme, the paid up share capital of the Company
was increased by Rs.11.500 millions and stands at Rs.522.000 millions divided
into 51200000 Equity Shares of Rs.10/- and 1000000 Redeemable Preference Shares
of Rs.10/-.
