OPERATING RESULTS:

 

The Year 2009 - 2010 was one of the most difficult years for the tourism industry but the sector proved to be solid and resisted better than many others, proving its value in terms of job creation and income generation.

 

The global economic meltdown and the swine flu scare hit Indian tourism last year, which saw foreign tourist arrivals fall by 3.3 percent to 5.11 million as against 5.28 million in 2008. India’s tourism growth was better than what was estimated by the UN World Trade Organisation. The UN body, which compiles world tourism rankings, had predicted that the tourism industry would globally face a minus 6-4 percent in 2009.

 

The period January – September 2009 had seen an overall decline of 7.7% in foreign tourist arrivals as compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. The trend in foreign tourist arrivals to the country had shown an improvement in the month of June 2009, which registered, for the first time in 6 months, an increase of 0.2% in foreign tourist arrivals to the country as compared to the corresponding month of the previous year, followed by an increase of 0.6% in the month of July. The months of August and September 2009 once again saw a decline of 8.6% and 4.1% as compared to corresponding months of the previous year.

 

The economic slowdown had significantly impacted the performance of the sector across all key markets. The severe impact of the downturn was felt in the first six months from April to September 2009. However the trend started to improve in the second half of the financial year. The last quarter particularly was comparatively better and this helped in improving the financial results of the Company. The leisure markets and the Chennai markets revived during the crucial November to March period. However the Average Room Rates (ARR's) continued to be under pressure. All the hotel units of the Company continue to be the Revpar leaders in their respective markets.

 

After recording strident growth in the previous years, the domestic economy could not avoid a slow down in the wake of the global economic crisis. The services sector which has been the prime growth engine for the last five years is slowing. Dampened demand has dented corporate margins while the uncertainty surrounding the crisis has affected business confidence. With the revival in global economic growth, Indian economy is expected to grow as the year progresses.

 

The Indian Rupee dropped mainly on account of continuous capital outflow from the Indian Stock market, a slowing economy and a widening current and trade account deficit.

 

India continues to witness a drop in tourist arrivals due to recession, slowing down of economy and industrial growth. The food inflation was very high resulting in lesser domestic movements.

 

The Company's revenues declined by 8%. The Hotel operating income was severely affected by the economic slowdown. Revival started only in the last two quarters but the ARRs continued to be under pressure. For the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a turnover of Rs. 2021.700 millions as against Rs. 2182.600 millions earned during the previous year. The Profit Before Tax at Rs. 353.700 millions was 39% lower as compared to Rs. 575.800 millions in the previous year. The Profit after Tax declined by 38% to Rs. 231.400 millions as against Rs. 373.200 millions in the previous year.

 

After the initial softness in key markets that was witnessed during the first 6-months of the year, there had been a steady improvement in the occupancies registered across the Company’s hotel portfolio during the second half of the financial year ended March 31, 2010 though the room rates continued to be under pressure. The ARRSs during the year declined by 8% as compared to the previous year.

 

SUBSIDIARY COMPANY:

 

The company has obtained an exemption from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, (MCA), Government of India, vide its letter No. 47 / 431 / 2010 - CL - III dated May 21, 2010 from publication of the accounts of its Subsidiary, OHL International (HK) Limited, under the provisions of Section 212 of the Companies Act, 1956 and hence the accounts of the Subsidiary are not appended to the Annual Report. However, the Consolidated Financial Statement of its Subsidiary, Joint Ventures and Associates prepared in stirct compliance with accounting Standard 21 " Consolidated Financial Statements" and the Listing agreement, duly audited by the Statutory Auditors from part of the Annual Report. The Financial Statements of the Subsidiary Company and other related detailed information are available at the office of the Company Secretary at any point of time. The Annual Accounts of the Subsidiary Company will also be available for inspection at the office of the Company Secretary and the Subsidiary Company.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

The Company has been reporting consolidated financial results taking into account the results of its subsidiary, joint ventures and associates. This discussion, therefore, covers the financial results and other developments during April 2009 to March 2010. Some statements in this discussion describing the projections, estimates, expectations or outlook may be forward looking. Actual results may, however, differ materially from those stated on account of various factors such as changes in government regulations, tax regimes, and economic developments etc.

 

Global and Indian Economy:

 

India, an emerging economy, has witnessed unprecedented levels of economic expansion, along with countries such as China, Russia, Mexico and Brazil. India, being a cost effective and labor intensive economy, has benefited immensely from outsourcing of work from developed countries, and a strong manufacturing and export oriented industrial framework. As the economic pace is picking up, global commodity prices have staged a comeback from their lows and global trade has also seen reasonably healthy growth over the last two years. The year 2009 began as a difficult year against the background of the growth in the last two quarters hovering around 6%. The economic slowdown in the developed countries had its impact on the developing and under developed countries. The Indian fiscal deficit increased from 3.3% of GDP in 2007/08 reaching 6.8% of GDP in 2009/10. Continued recession in the developed countries resulted in a sluggish export and slowed down the financial flows into the economy.

 

An Overview of the Global and Indian Tourism Industry

 

As per the Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Report 2009 by the World Economic Forum, India is ranked 11th in the Asia Pacific region and 62nd overall, moving up three places on the list of the world’s attractive destinations. It is ranked the 14th best tourist destination for its natural resources and 24th for its cultural resources, with many World Heritage sites, both natural and cultural, rich fauna, and strong creative industries in the country. India also bagged 37th rank for its air transport network. The India travel and tourism industry ranked 5th in the long-term (10-year) growth and is expected to be the second largest employer in the world by 2019. India has been ranked as the “best country brand for value-for-money” in the Country Brand Index (CBI) survey conducted by Future Brand, a leading global brand consultancy. India also claimed the second place in CBI’s “best country brand for history”, and appears among the top 5 in the best country brand for authenticity and art & culture, and the fourth best new

country for business.

 

India made it to the list of “rising stars” or the countries that are likely to become major tourist destinations in the next five years, led by the United Arab Emirates, China, and Vietnam. Tourism in India has seen exponential growth in the recent years. India is one of the most preferred destinations for both overseas and domestic travelers. Tourism enables the international traveler to understand and experience India’s cultural diversity first hand. According to official estimates the Indian tourism industry has outperformed the global tourism industry in terms of growth in the volume of foreign tourists as well as in terms of revenue. The main reason for the growth in tourism in India is the tremendous progress made by the Indian economy. To sustain the current growth the government is required to invest in infrastructure like transport, accommodation, better roads, health and hygiene etc. To propel growth the industry has invested in new technology like CRM tools and state of the art security systems. The year 2009/10 saw the resurgence of the domestic traveler. While rates dropped significantly, the strong increase in domestic demand led to a significant 8% increase in occupancy nationwide. The growing hospitality sector is one of the biggest contributors as an employer in Indian economy.

 

It has tremendous scope of generating employment in India and offers lucrative careers and great employment opportunities in hotels, travel and tour organizations, retailing and cultural industries etc. With the increasing competition in the industry, the number of employment opportunities in the sector is also increasing at a tremendous rate. The sector is adding around 4 million jobs per year in India. There is a great demand for the hospitality students especially hotel management. The organizations are also focusing on the skills, training and development (both personal and professional) of the professionals, and providing them fast career progress. The global economic meltdown and the swine flu scare hit Indian tourism last year, which saw foreign tourist arrivals fall by 3.3 percent to 5.11 million as against 5.28 million in 2008. India’s tourism growth was better than what was estimated by the UN World Trade Organization.

 

Contingent liabilities

 

The accounting standard definition of a contingent liability is as follows:

 

1. A possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the entity’s control; or

 

2. A present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognized because it is not probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; or

 

3. The amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

 

A loss contingency is an existing condition, situation, or set of circumstances that involves uncertainty as to possible loss that will be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Potential loss refers to contingent liabilities in which there is substantial and material risk of loss to the organization.

 

The Company’s Contingent Liabilities pertain primarily to corporate guarantee provided and taxation matters.
