PERFORMANCE AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

For the fiscal year 2009-10, the company achieved 37% growth of in sales aggregating to Rs.109.926 millions as compared with that of previous year Rs.80.262 millions. Also, during 2009-10, the total installed capacity utilization was increased to 13473.69 metric tones from 9846.30 metric tonnes. The production level increased due to reduction in down-time and increase in production of new product ranges in moulded fittings and micro drip irrigation.

 

During 2009-10, the company's branches made trading of construction input items like tore-steel, MS angles, MS channels, MS plates, cement etc. which accounted for Rs.209.943 millions in comparison to trading turnover of Rs.95.528 millions during 2008-09. The trading in construction input items facilitated their entry in construction sector by offering the buyer / contractor different product range from one point contact.

 

Profit before tax during 2009-10 was Rs.93.647 Millions as compared to Rs.23.131 Millions during 2008-09, which shows an increase of 304%. This phenomenal increase was mainly due to stability in raw material prices and sales trend which had been adversely affected during 2008-09 due to severe international economic recession. Additionally the company has been able to penetrate into micro drip irrigation market along with increased ranges of existing products, which resulted in increasing profits for current year.

 

NEW PROJECTS

 

The company is taking various growth options so as to enhance the company's future revenue and for the expansion of its core businesses : Micro drip Irrigation.

The Indian economy exhibited clear momentum in recovery, and despite the impact of a deficient monsoon on agricultural production, GDP growth for 2009-10 has been estimated at 7.2 per cent, up from 6.7 per cent recorded in 2008-09 as per CSO. However, Indian GDP totaled 970 billion U.S. dollars increasing 7.4 percent during fiscal year 2009-2010, which ended at March 31, 2010, against earlier forecast of 7.2 percent as per Indian Ministry of Statistics and Program Implementation.

 

The government adjusted up overall economic growth estimates on brisk performance of agriculture, forestry and fishing, mining and quarrying as well as manufacturing sectors. The growth rates of the above-mentioned three sectors were hiked from negative 0.2 percent, 8.7 percent and 8.9 percent to 0.2 percent, 10.6 percent and 10.8 percent, respectively.

 

Relative to other emerging economies, the inherent strengths of India helped it better withstand the adverse effects of the global financial crisis which occurred during 2008-09. With a fairly young population, skilled manpower, a tradition of saving, a vibrant service sector, increase thrust on agriculture growth, a potentially large source of domestic demand (particularly rural) and the emergence of globally competitive firms, India has held out the promise of stable and sustained future growth. These strengths will get further augmented by the planned investments in infrastructure development envisaged in the Twelfth Five Year Plan.

 

While the increase in CRR effected by the Reserve Bank in its Third Quarter Policy Review of January 2010 led to some moderation in excess liquidity, overall liquidity conditions remain comfortable as reflected in the daily reverse repo operations.

 

The country strives to attain 8.5 percent growth of GDP in fiscal year 2010-2011 with the aim of realizing 9 percent growth in the following year. The forecast for the agriculture sector growth was revised upwards to 4.0 per cent from 3.5 per cent as per 'Survey of Professional Forecasters' conducted by the Reserve Bank in March 2010.

 

Industry Structure and Development:

 

The company is one of the emerging Agri-business companies in India, with a wide presence in Water Irrigation, Piping Systems and water management system. They have been one of the key beneficiaries of the government's thrust on boosting agricultural output and productivity in the country. The company continues to focus on its core business of irrigation, apart from evolving into a water solution provider, construction and building material provider, through both organic and inorganic initiatives.

 

The Company's product range includes Rigid PVC Pipes and Fittings, SWR Pipes and Fittings, PVC Casing and Screen Pipes, HOPE Pipes and fittings, HOPE Sprinkler System, LLDPE Pipes and fittings, ASTM Plumbing Pipes and fittings, Elastomeric Sealing Pipes and Moulded Fittings.

 

The Pipe products manufactured by the Company are to suit the requirements of application in farm irrigation, landscape, plumbing, cable ducting, potable water supply schemes, sewerage and drainage systems, construction industry, telecom industry, bore well for underground water suction etc. ranging from 20mm diameter to 315mm diameters in all pressure ratings. The Company operates in only one Industry Segment i.e. Plastic Pipe Industry.

 

The company's primary focus is to play a catalyst in providing value added long lasting solutions through its product and services to problems of water security, food security and energy security. In line of company's word, 'Let's nurture the green era', the company's management is planning to train and educate the farmers and locals through its well established network dealer about importance of water resources and its best management along with optimum utilization.

 

Outlook

 

Worldwide demand for plastic pipe is forecast to increase 4.6 percent annually through 2012 to 8.2 billion meters, or 18.2 million metric tons. With a population that exceeds 1 billion and low per capita consumption of plastics of only 4 kg per year (as compared to 110 kg in the United States), India is seen as an attractive market for the plastics industry. By 2012 India's demand for plastics is expected to have doubled to 11.5 million tones and during the same period India's per capita consumption is also set to double to 8 kg per year and is slated to become the third largest consumer of plastics after the US and China.

India is an agro based economy. The government policies has been laid down for supporting the debt striven farmers by way of incentive of additional one per cent interest subvention to farmers who repay short-term crop loans as per schedule, increased to 2% for 2010-11. Also it has been directed to banks for meeting the targets set for agriculture credit flow to the tune of Rs. 3750 billion during 2010-11. The Govt. of India has increased the annual budget allocation underthe Rajiv Gandhi Drinking Water Mission from Rs.65 billion to Rs.74 billion in the previous Union Budget 2009-10. For the Eleventh Five Year Plan, the Govt. of India is aiming to add 11 million hectares of irrigational facilities, entailing an investment of Rs.1,580 billion. In view of the recent drought in some States and the severe floods in some other parts of the country, the period for repayment of the loan amount by farmers extended by six months from December 31, 2009 to June 30, 2010 under the Debt Waiver and Debt Relief Scheme for Farmers. It has been further proposed to utilize Rs.3,000 million to organise 60,000 "pulses and oil seed villages" in rain-fed areas during 2010-11 so as to provide for an integrated intervention for water harvesting, watershed management and soil health, to enhance the productivity of the dry land farming areas.

 

The demand for Pipes in agricultural sector will increase in leaps and bounds because of various Government policies and reforms. Hence, there is an ample opportunity for companies in agricultural product section. Similarly, the government policies of continuing tax benefits on housing loan and increasing number of residential complex, shopping malls, construction of hospitals and growth in tourism will give a boost to companies related to construction products.

 

It is a requirement to provide potable water to several areas of the country, as also improve sanitation and develop housing construction at low cost. Plastics play a key role in all these segments, which can improve the quality of life of a majority of the country's population. The Company is a prominent supplier of piping system to provide solutions in all these segments.

 

 In India, gains will outpace the global average, benefiting from ongoing infrastructure development. Economic growth will create demand for plastic pipe in networks for telecommunications and in residential home building applications. Ongoing efforts across these regions to upgrade water treatment systems will boost demand for plastic pipe used for potable water delivery, rain water harvesting, waste water management and in drainage and sewage applications. Finally, demand will also benefit from the expansion of natural gas distribution networks.

 

The company is thriving to increase its efficiency in operation, expansion of product range and organic growth in marketing thereby building sustainable competitiveness. The next geographical growth target is Gujarat, Delhi and Northern India, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamilnadu. A separate team is made to grab the various state government tenders. The diversification and product innovation with the help of latest technologies from world leaders is their main thrust for growth. The expansion plan is made and being implemented with a view of cost reduction by adopting higher output/low power consumption technologies. These advanced technologies ensure best quality production with lesser dependency on manpower. The company's policy of bringing all manufacturing facilities under one roof for reduction in variable costs is being implemented in full swing.

 

The joint venture initiative with Tulsi Plastics SA (Pty) Limited Durban, South Africa is being carried out in phased manner. Tulsi Plastics SA (Pty) Limited is coming out of initial setting period and has reported good demand for its products. In coming years, the company is expecting strengthening of business relationship with Tulsi, South Africa.

The Company believes that this range of products would allow its existing customers to source most of their product requirements from a single vendor and also enable it to expand their business from existing customers, as well as address a larger base of potential new customers.

 

Flexible and Scalable Production Facilities

 

The Management believes that the flexibility and scalability of the Company's existing production facilities will help it to meet increased demand for its products. The scalability of the Company's existing facilities enables it to increase its production capacity through the installation of new equipment and production lines. For example, the Company can increase the capacity to produce PVC pipes and fiitings by upgrading critical equipment such as screws/barrels and gear boxes, or if greater capacity enhancement is required, by adding new extruders. The Company's flexible manufacturing facilities enable it to produce a wide range of products with different specifications, such as PVC / PE pipes with different diameters and working pressure ranges and processed and dehydrated fruits and vegetables using different organic feedstock. This flexibility assists the Company in meeting the specific demands of its customers and reducing the impact of seasonal changes in production volumes for specific products.

Taparia, who has 20 years of experience in trading and marketing of PVC pipes and fittings. The management team also has long-standing relationships with many of the major customers, distributors/dealers and suppliers. Further, the Company has a strong local sales force, which together with the management team gives the Company an excellent understanding of the needs of the domestic

customers. 

 

Future Strategic Directions

 

Government allocation for Irrigation segment on the rise

 

Few years back, the Indian government initiated an Accelerated Irrigation Benefit Programme (AIBP) to propel irrigation growth in India. For quicker implementation, the government also made an allocation for AIBP in the Union Budget. Over the past five years, budgeted allocation for the programme has increased at a whopping rate. For FY2010, the government has allocated over Rs. 400,000 millions for AIBP. Even if a paltry 5% of the total allocation is utilized for micro and drip irrigation, it provides a good opportunity for irrigation players like the company in the country.

 

Assessing the need and potential of Micro/Drip Irrigation (Ml) in India

 

The surface method of irrigation is the oldest and most widely used method wherein a stream is diverted from the source to the field through furrows and borders, allowing it to flow across the slope by gravity. However, over 60-70% of the water released from the source is lost on the way due to evaporation, seepage and conveyance losses, thus achieving only 30-40% water efficiency. Conversely, Ml techniques like sprinklers and drip irrigation are more efficient. Drip irrigation has achieved 80-90% efficiency levels.

 

The need of the hour is not only to economize water usage in agriculture but also to bring more land under irrigation, reduce costs of irrigation and increase the yield per unit area. Micro Irrigation techniques offer a solution to these issues and indirectly also helps to reduce costs and improve productivity.

 

The Drip irrigation technique, on account of the controlled application of water, helps to maintain the soil moisture close to the field capacity thus aiding growth and yield. The favorable growing condition aided by drip irrigation helps crops mature earlier than the traditional methods. Substantial increase in yield has been witnessed in different crops using drip irrigation.

 

Drip irrigation not only aids improvement in yield, but also helps reduce usage of fertilizers and saves water. High crude oil prices and reliance on fertilizer imports has been burdening the government on account of the high subsidies extended to the Fertilizer sector. Given the recent surge in crude oil prices leading to higher fertilizer prices, the fertilizer subsidy is envisaged at around Rs.1,200,000 millions. Hence, higher acreage in India needs to come under micro irrigation, which will improve productivity and reduce fertilizer usage in turn reducing the fertilizer subsidy burden on the government.

 

Increasing importance of irrigation, and the potential and need of micro irrigation in the country has seen us to gearing up to capitalize and meet the challenges of the unfolding opportunity in this space.

 

Roof Water Harvesting

 

In India, one of the major problem is availability of drinking water sources. Awareness has to be created among people about conservation of water and one of the best available means is roof water harvesting. Its importance can be visualized from this fact that 1000 Itr. of rainfall is quite enough to fill borewell upto 5-6 Itr. Various research studies have analyzed that conservation of water in borewell might lead to increase water level by 40%. Please note that if 100 cm (40 inch) of rainfall water falls on roof with area of 1000 sq. ft, then by applying roof water harvesting will save approx. 1 lakh Itr. Of from wastage, which otherwise would have been drained and after that, it can be send to borewell through proper piping systems for use for drinking purpose.

 

Expansion of product range

 

The Company's existing product portfolio comprises of PVC pipes and fittings, Moulded fittings, PVC casing and screen pipes(CMC Pipe), ASTM plumbing pipes and fittings, elastometric sealing pipes, LLDPE pipes and fittings, HOPE pipes and fittings, Sprinkler Systems, Drip irrigation System and SWR pipes and fittings. The Company further plans to expand its product range by venturing into the manufacturing of CPVC pipes, Column submersible pipes, flat inline drip irrigation system, mini sprinkler, soluble fertilizer, crates, chairs, furniture and brass fittings.

 

Increasing geographical reach

 

The Company plans to increase its customer base in its existing domestic markets and expand its business to new geographic locations viz. Gujarat, Assam, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Uttranchal, Punjab, Haryana, Karnataka, interiors of West Bengal etc. The Company plans to do this by utilising its marketing skills and further expanding customer satisfaction by meeting orders in hand on timely basis and maintaining its client relationships.

 

Expansion of customer base

 

The Company intends to cater to its customers in the macro-irrigation sector, sprinkler irrigation, lift irrigation and construction sector by expanding its product range in HOPE pipes, LLDPE pipes and injection-moulded items.

 

Strengthen Relationship with Clients

 

The Company believes in maintaining long term relationships with its clients. The Company endeavors developing relationship with its clients not only in terms of increased sales but also in terms of varied offerings in the Company's product mix. The Company aims to achieve this by adding value to its client service through quality, speed and reliability of its product delivery and resolution of various customer queries and complaints.

 

Maintaining cost competitiveness

 

The Company seeks to be a cost-competitive, high quality producer and is focused on maintaining its cost competitiveness in the domestic market. There are plans to further increase productivity and production while reducing costs by continuing to invest in new equipment, improving the material management system to minimize wastage and production losses, improving the working capital cycle to reduce the interest costs, refinancing the higher cost debt with lower interest debt and exploring ways to use the waste produced etc.

 

Focus on liquidity and reduction of finance cost

 

With growing businesses, not only in value and volume terms, but also geographically, managing finance is becoming more and more critical. On a continuous basis the Company is focused on having the limits and facilities available to fund their future growth plan. They are equally focused on bringing their interest cost down by changing the borrowing mix in line with change in the market dynamics.

 

Financial and Operating Performance:

 

The total income of the Company for the year 2009-10 was Rs. 1106.696 millions compared to Rs. 808.765 millions during the previous year i.e. an increase of 36.84% (Previous year 22.93%). The operating profit (PBDIT) for the Company has increased to Rs.169.404 millions during the year as against Rs. 69.154 millions for the previous year i.e. increase by 144.96% (Previous year-26.02%), mainly because of recovery from the recession which has rattled the global economy during 2008-09. The earning per share(EPS) has improved from Rs. 1.01 per share to Rs. 5.03 per share during current financial year. The Company expects to earn further increased revenues in the near future. The overall capacity utilization has decreased from 67.73% to 54.26% because of installation of new products divisions, unusual power cuts, frequent moulds/die head changes leading to loss of effective production hours etc.

 

The Company's working capital facilities with the banks have increased during the year from Rs. 380.000 millions to Rs. 480.000 millions. In the prevailing circumstances, the Company has managed the interest cost reasonably well. The Company enjoys excellent relations with its Bankers and has been able to negotiate various banking facilities favourably. The Company has also availed during the year a term loan of Rs. 189.000 millions from Punjab National bank and equipment lease financing from L and T Finance Ltd. to the tune of Rs. 20.000 millions.

 

The interest cost for the year is on higher side in absolute terms. The net interest charges increased by 52.08% in the current year as compared to previous year, mainly due to increase in interest rates, long term raised for growth capex, increase in working capital utilization for growth etc.

 

The increase in debtors is commensurate to increase in sales. Net sales in last quarter was about 35% of total sales for the year. Sundry debtors in terms of number of days sales has gone up to 143 days as compared to 124 days in previous year in spite of change in product mix e.g. higher sales mix of Micro Irrigation in total sales which has longer collection cycle compared to other products. The Company is planning for bill discounting and incentive schemes to improve efficiency in receivable holding in next financial year.
