BUSINESS SITUATION:

 

The  sharp  decline witnessed in the fourth quarter of 2008 in  the  Indian automotive  market  continued  in the first quarter of 2009  as  well  with  Medium  and Heavy Commercial Vehicle segment registering a drop as high  as  60% over first quarter 2008. However, the timely stimulus package announced by the Government of India helped the industry to recover lost ground.  The Passenger Car and Light Commercial Vehicle segments were the first  to respond  and stabilized by March / April 2009. The recovery in Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicle segment was delayed until September 2009.  Despite this recovery, this segment registered a decline of 20% for the year as a whole in 2009 compared to the vehicle production in 2008.

 

Effectively, our sales from the automotive segment grew by 4% in 2009. With this, the marginal decline in sales to OE customers / exports has been more than offset by the growth in the Automotive Aftermarket business.

 

The non-automotive business grew by 4.9% in 2009 compared to  2008  mainly driven  by  growth  in sales from the Power Tools  and  Packaging  Machines divisions.

 

AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY:

 

Diesel Systems business de-grew by 2.7% owing to a steep decline in demand in the Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicle segment and significant decline in exports business.

 

The Diesel Systems team was successful in developing a mechanical based system for Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicles to meet Bharat Stage (BS) III emission norms. This in-house development is testimony to  the  Bosch culture  that  fosters  innovation and  thereby  defending  our  leadership position  in the diesel business with a competitive edge. The first single cylinder based Common Rail system for the small goods carrier segment was well received in the market.

 

Strong demand from OE customers led to growth in Gasoline System business by 121% in 2009 albeit on a lower base of 2008. A significant milestone was reached with the start of production of Gasoline Engine Management  systems for Tata Nano.

 

Starter  and Generator business also witnessed a steep decline in sales  in the  first half of 2009 but considerably grew in the second half,  more  so during  the last quarter of the year. With this, the division was able  to limit  the  decline to 10.9% in the year 2009 over 2008.  Introduction  and start of production of the New Baseline Alternators, Compact Direct Starter Motor  products  and  the  launch of Start-Stop  systems  which  were  well received in the market were the major highlights of the division in 2009.

 

The Automotive Aftermarket grew by 17.3% in 2009 compared to the year  2008 clocking  double digit growth for the fourth consecutive year despite  fall in  exports  business. This growth was a result of new  product  launches, major distribution initiatives, increase in network strength, end  customer oriented  campaigns  with the latest service trends, and  customer  binding programs.  To encourage the general public and traders to deal with  only

genuine automotive parts, the division organized several raids in 2009 with the  support from law enforcement agencies to safeguard not only the  brand Bosch but also to provide safe and reliable products to Indian customers.

 

Bosch  Car  Service, the largest multi-brand car service network  in  India added 103 stations across the country during the year 2009, ending up  with 361  stations.  A  Manual outlining do's and don'ts of  Bosch  Car  Service

communication  which  include  signages,  interiors,  displays,  hoardings, product  posters and promotional activities has been made available to  all Bosch Car Service partners in order to ensure consistency in brand identity and uniformity in communication by strictly adhering to the  specifications stated in the guidelines.

 

Industrial Technology Packaging Technology (Verna Plant) The Packaging Technology business was stabilized at the manufacturing location in Verna, Goa.  Packaging Technology division went hand in hand  with  the  changing market  scenario  and  grew by 15.9%. All the three   verticals viz.  Food, Confectionary  and  Pharmaceuticals  posted robust  growth  driven  by  the rapidly   changing  consumer  preference  and  needs.  The   division   has successfully added two machines SVI 2620 and BVK 1200 in  the  Packaging

 

Machines and Confectionary / Chocolate business units respectively.

 

The successful implementation of Material Resource Planning has reduced the delivery  time  of   components. Bosch Production  System  (BPS)  has  been initiated  in Food Packaging Machines which has improved  the  productivity and quality of Terra 25 and TW 100 NEL machines.

 

SECURITY TECHNOLOGY:

 

The  security  Technology  business  declined by 17.4%  in  the  year  2009 compared  to  2008. This decline was predominantly due to postponement  of many infrastructure and corporate projects.

 

Key highlights of this business group was the successful completion of  the National Gallery of Modern Arts project in New Delhi and the World's  first electro-voice  EVA stadium installation in Mumbai which is the  largest  EV installation in India.

 

 

INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT:

 

In view of major Capital investments which were withheld within the Company as well  as  by  the external customers in the year  2009,  sales  in  the Industrial Equipment division de-grew by 18.8% in 2009 compared to the year 2008.

 

The division continued to strive towards providing innovative solutions and has developed machines for manufacturing Fuel Injection Pumps, Filters and Gasoline System parts especially for small car projects. This division also provided   solutions for assembly lines of  gearbox  and   transmission components for Heavy Commercial Vehicle manufacturers.

 

Consumer Goods and Building Technology - , Power tools Power Tools business grew by 19.3% despite the construction business being impacted adversely by the economic downturn. The division launched the Bosch Lithium Ion powered cordless tools with a range including drivers, impact drivers  and  impact wrenches.

Pressure  Washers.  Successful  usage  of  the  combination  of   Fischer, Accessories  and  Tools for projects like Common Wealth Games  Stadia,  New Delhi  Airport, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, Bosch Tightening Systems  and Pneumatic  Tools  at the prestigious Volkswagen assembly line,  Pune,  were some of the initiatives taken in the year 2009.

 

COMPETITION AND CHALLENGES IN THEIR BUSINESS SECTORS:

 

The Company's businesses continue to face intense competition both from the local and  global  players. Despite the adverse conditions,  the  Company

strengthened its position by expanding its product portfolio and  deploying its resources in developing new and innovative technologies and products.

 

The  year 2010 will be equally, if not more, challenging and demanding  due to  severe pressure on input costs and pricing as they pursue the return  to the growth rates of 2007 and before.

 

Improving customer delight while judiciously managing the long term growth and  structure  of the Company will be of paramount importance and  they  are determined   to   meet  this  by  the  continued   efforts   achieve   cost

competitiveness through productivity ;improvement and effective  utilization of resources and capacities. Bharat Stage III and Bharat Stage IV  emission norms are scheduled to be introduced this year and the customers need to be supported efficiently with respect to product mix and call-off schedules.

 

The market optimism seen in the beginning of 2010 has heralded clear signs of economic  re-bound.  However, they must  continue  the  austere  measures adopted  during the period of economic downturn and whilst doing  so,  must focus  on  improving flexibility, speed and  technological  superiority  in order to sustain the competitive edge.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT:

 
 

The global economic crisis did impact the economic growth story in India, albeit temporarily. The economy slowed down considerably in 4th quarter of 2008 and 1st quarter of 2009. However, backed by the stimulus offered by the Government of India, the economy recovered quite quickly in 3rd and 4th quarter of 2009. The Index of Industrial Production (IIP) grew by over 12% in last quarter of 2009. The GDP for 2009-10 and 2010-11 is expected to expand by 7.5% and 8% respectively.

 

On the inflationary front,  the higher  base  effect  ensured  that  the wholesale price index (WPI) for 2009 was at benign 2.1% as against 9.1% for 2008.  However the inflation has increased to worrying levels of  8.5%  for January  2010  consequent  to higher liquidity  and  increase  in  Non-food articles and fuel prices. At the consumer price index (CPI) level inflation rose at a higher 11.0% for year 2009 because of food inflation being over 15.0%.  To  tame this rising inflation the Government has  given  hints  of removing the stimulus package in a phased manner in 2010 and very  recently the  Central  Bank in order to reduce the excess liquidity  and  to  anchor inflationary  expectations has raised cash reserve ratio (CRR) by 75  basis points in 2 stages.

 

The inflow of $ 25.5 billion from Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and over $ 17.46 billion from Foreign Institutional Investors (Flls) in 2009 has helped in strengthening of Rupee against USD from 49.0 in January 2009 to 46.5 by end of the year. However, any further major appreciation in the Rupee is bound to have a negative impact on the exports which is already hit by global slow down in demand.

 

In Indian Automotive Industry scenario, though the first quarter of 2009 was bleak, from second quarter, the signs of recovery were good.  The Car and UV's sector sustained growth of 18% due to stimulus provided by the Government in the form of excise duty cuts, Central Government employee pay hikes and lower interest rates. This was also supported  by  several  new model  introductions  and  UV's  having additional  demand  on  account  of Parliamentary elections in the first and second quarter of 2009.

 

The HCV segment continued its downturn in the first half of 2009 due to reduced freight index movement and replacement demand. The second half saw signs of recovery. The Jawaharlal Nehru National  Urban  Renewal  Mission (JNNURM)  scheme,  a Government of India initiative aiming  at  encouraging reforms  and fast track planned development of identified  cities,  boosted the  confidence  of  the  industry. This recovery was also supported by accelerated  depreciation scheme. The rate of decline which was higher in the first half of the year, recovered during the second half and declined only by 20% during the entire year.

 

Tractor segment witnessed a robust growth of 10% supported by increase in farm mechanization and subsidised interest rate. LCV Segment recorded a 13% growth over previous year supported by  increase  in  organised  retail industry  and election demand. The sub 1 ton continued to drive the growth in the segment.

 

. Future plan of action:

 

-  Design of spark plug with improved Electro Magnetic  Interference  (EMI) levels.

 

- High grade ceramics for the demands of future Ignition Systems.

 

-  Extending  the  product  portfolio relevant to  the  Low  Price  Vehicle segment.

 

- Increase the depth of localisation.

 

-  Increase  in competencies across business sectors to  benefit  from  the potential available in the Indian market.

 

 

 

 

OPERATIONS:

 

The following are some of the highlights of the Company for the year 2009.

 

* The Company witnessed an overall growth of around 4.6% in  sales  during the year. This growth is mainly coming in the second half of the year 2009. Recovery  of  Automotive  sector  in the second half  and  good  growth  in Automotive Aftermarket division, Gasoline Systems, Power Tools division and Packaging  division  helped negate slowdown seen in the first half  of  the year.

 

* The total investment made in the last five years is around INR 16,750 Million. The capital investment was critically reviewed and the investment during the year 2009 is around INR 1,450 Million as against INR 4,335

Million during the previous year.

 

* Diesel system division received Diesel System Recognition for Energy Conservation and  COZ  reduction.  Diesel Systems in  the  course  of  its business excellence journey based on the European Foundation Quality  Model (EFQM)  was  honored  with the coveted CII-EXIM  Bank  Award  for  Business Excellence for the year 2009. It also bagged the Gold award in 10th Annual Greentech 'Environment Excellence' and silver award in 8th Annual Greentech 'Safety' organized by Greentech Foundation.

 

* The Automotive Aftermarket division has registered a double digit growth for  the fourth consecutive year. An all round improvement  which  includes new  product launches, distribution and service network expansion,  service efficiency   and   workshop   quality  improvement,   high   impact   brand communication,  improved logistics, brand protection activities  ensured  a robust growth of 17.3% during the year.

 

*  In addition to strengthening existing Distribution and  Service  network for Automotive Aftermarket division there were new appointments of 1st  and 2nd trade level partners especially Bosch Car services network.

 

* Gasoline system division won Autocar Innovation' award together with M/s Mahindra and Mahindra Limited., for Start-Stop system (SSM) Solution.

 

* The Power Tools Division outperformed the market, growing by 19% over the previous  year and won the prestigious 'Platinum Award' for  7  consecutive years of double digit growth at the BOSCH Power Tools World Conference.

.

 

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:

 

The Company's performance was affected by major decline in the Automotive sector during the first half and also due to lower global demand.  The impact of the same can be seen from the marginal growth in sales for the year 2009 over 2008. The Company has reported a sales growth of 4.6% in 2009 over 2008. The Profit before tax is at 16.7% of Net Sales compared to 18.9 % of net  sales during the year 2008. This decline in  profit  is attributed to unfavorable exchange rate impact, flat Automotive growth  and one time expense. The reduction in operating profit is partially off-set by income from treasury operations.

 

With the slowdown witnessed in the Automotive sector during the first  half of  the  year,  the  Company had focused on  reducing  working  capital  by controlling  inventory  and focusing on better customer  realisation.  This resulted in reduction in net working capital.

 

The  Company has invested around INR 1,450 Million during the year 2009  in its facilities across India for strengthening its development capabilities, quality  improvements  and  capacity  expansions. 

 

Major  investments in Bangalore and Nashik locations are mainly focused  on expansion of Common Rail system and Common Rail injectors respectively.

 

SALES PERFORMANCE IN VARIOUS SEGMENTS:

 

Share of automotive segment in sales has declined from 89.8% in 2008 to 89.4% in 2009 due to slowdown in automotive market during the first half of the year  2009.  Consequently, proportion of  the  others  segment  namely Industrial Technology and Consumer Goods and Building Technology businesses increased  from  10.2%  in  2008 to 10.6% in 2009,  with  the  Power  Tools business growing by 19% and Packaging Machinery by over 16%. The growth is offset by under performance from Security Systems, which showed a negative growth of 17%.

 

In the Secondary segment, the share of exports has declined from 15.07% in 2008 to 12.33% in 2009 mainly due to  continued  global  recession  from previous year.

 

Outlook:

 

The outlook for 2010 looks positive in comparison to the world economies but  for inflation which has reached worrisome proportions. This may  force the  Central Bank to introduce punitive measures to curl the  rising  trend and the Government may withdraw the stimulus packages introduced to counter the economic slowdown sooner rather than later. Liquidity may be curbed to control inflation in addition to the measures adopted by the Central Bank and the Government.

 

The automotive sector recovered strongly backed by the stimulus incentives offered by the Government, withdrawal of which may decelerate the growth momentum especially in the commercial vehicle and passenger car segment. BS III and BS IV emission norms are expected to be implemented across  India and in 13 major cities respectively in 2010. Over the long term, the growth of the Indian automotive market looks positive.

 

The Government intends to maintain momentum through investments in roads, airports, ports, railways and metro rail. In the long run we will  continue to  see  significant  investments in the infrastructure  segment  to  cover existing  gaps  and new ones that arise with growth in other  sectors.  The share of organized retail segment is also growing rapidly and will continue so in the long run.

Bosch introduces professional range of cordless power tools with Lithium-Ion technology

 

Famous boxer and Olympic medalist, Vijender Singh launches the new tools

 

New Delhi, September 15, 2010: Strengthening its position as an innovation leader, Bosch Power Tools, today, unveiled a whole new range of light-weight, cordless power tools for professional users in India. Coveted by industry professionals around the world, the range consists of dynamic tools such as cordless screwdrivers, drill/drivers, impact wrenches, multi-tool and rotary hammers etc. These tools cater to diverse industry segments such as automotive, construction, manufacturing, electrical, electronics and interiors. For professionals looking for effective tools that offer great value for money, the Lithium-Ion powered cordless tools offer a quick fix solution to screwdriving, drilling, cutting, hammering, etc. Powered by innovative Bosch Lithium-Ion technology, these convenient-to-use tools offer 400% longer battery lifetime and quick charging capability.

 

Talking about the needs of customers, Mr. Vijay Pandey said, "Today, professionals expect a power tool to have high power and performance, long lifetime, fast charging cycle as well as high level of user safety and compact design. The new range of cordless power tools combine all these features, and are bound to boost engineering standards. Innovation has always been at the heart of our offerings and we are positive that customers from across the nation will benefit with these new tools from Bosch."

 

Launching the tools at a press conference today, famous boxer and Olympic medalist, Mr. Vijender Singh got to experience the power of these tools first hand by riding a specially created Go Kart, which runs on a Bosch cordless power tool. Installed in the Go Kart was a GSR 36 V-Li Professional – a 36 volt Lithium ion screwdriver that powered the kart. What was special about it was that the Lithium Ion battery technology provides the necessary power to drive a kart. It is so powerful that it can even replace corded power tools. Impressed by the power offered by Bosch Power Tools, Vijender Singh said, "In the boxing field, the power comes from inside. But today, I have experienced a different kind of power. This is an amazing concept from Bosch Power Tools to showcase the power of Bosch cordless tools through this kart. I am sure for Bosch power tools users, like professionals and tradesmen, the new range is going to be very useful".

 

The Bosch Power Tool division has been successfully operating in the world with a turnover of 3.1 billion Euros. As the world’s leading power tool manufacturer, the company recognizes the crucial needs to address and design solutions which will meet the user’s daily challenges and issues at work. In India, Bosch Power tools have been used extensively for infrastructural projects such as the Delhi Metro Rail besides creating Bus Body building kits or providing Railway Track maintenance kits with 11kg Hammers.

Ranging from Rs. 3000/- to Rs. 40000/-, the new range of cordless power tools have been designed to handle light, medium and even extreme applications, both indoors and outdoors and give the best results every single time. What’s more – they do not get affected even after a 2 meter drop on a hard floor such as concrete due to special housing material called Durashield.

 

Commenting on the popularity of the tools worldwide and in India, Mr. Vijay Pandey, Vice President, Bosch Power Tools, India said, "The tools have a strong loyalty across the globe due to their innovation. power and quality usage. Around 32 million Bosch power tools are sold worldwide every year. In India, more than 600,000 Bosch power tools are sold annually which amounts to one Bosch power tool being purchased almost every minute!"

Bosch follows the guiding principles of quality, innovation and customer orientation that allow the company to create products that are core to users’ needs. The new cordless tools do not require electric power supply, are ergonomically designed and very light weight.
