MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW

 

Global economic environment continues to remain quite volatile. In the current globalised economy, it is not possible to remain insulated from swings in the global economy. However, Government of India is quite alert and proactive to continuously guide the economy on a growth path in this tough period. The Indian entrepreneurs also have shown great resilience to ride through smoothly in this economic situation. It is forecasted that the GDP growth in the current year may touch 9.5%. This will be way ahead of the growth of GDP in the last two years. Government of India has withdrawn some of the stimulus measures by increasing excise duty from 8% to 10%. The withdrawal is calibrated in such a manner as not to endanger growth impulse.

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

 

Plastics consumption in their economy has gone up by 16% in volume in the year April 2009 to March 2010 against previous year. Another supplier of Polymers - Indian Oil Corporation Limited - having a petrochemical complex at Panipat - has now gone into production. Expanded capacity of PP plant of Reliance Industries Limited at Jamnagar has gone into production. Haldia Chemicals Limited has also increased their capacities of PP and PE in West Bengal. Thus, with the increased availability of indigenous raw material, prices of polymers may remain at an affordable level. Government is giving big push to introduce Goods and Service Tax (GST) with effect from 1.4.2011. The constraints to implement the same are being removed one after another. With the positive approach from the Central Government and State Governments, it is likely that the country may not miss the dead line to launch GST from 1.4.2011. The introduction of GST will integrate the country’s economy. This will boost the growth of the Company’s business. The Central Government has given special focus to improve infrastructure of 91 cities from 63 cities and Towns as announced earlier in the country under Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM). This opens several businesses opportunities for the Company to participate in supply of Potable Water and improvement of sewerage system made from Plastics. The country is allocating large sums of monies to boost agricultural productivity. The Company is actively participating to play its role to provide innovative tools to farmers to save water and boost agricultural productivity. The Government is further giving special push to increase the residential housing activity. All these initiatives taken by the Government on infrastructure, Agriculture and Housing will facilitate the Company to boost its business volume year after year. The Company expects to achieve 20% plus volume growth per year in medium term.

 

COMPANY'S STRENGTH AND GROWTH DRIVERS

 

Manufacturing sites

 

During the year, the Company has opened a new site at Tamilnadu. The Company has divested its assets at Nandesari. Thus the Company will continue to operate from 19 manufacturing sites.

 

Distribution Network

 

The Company’s distributors networks are increasing year after year. There are still several towns where dealer net works have to be created. The Company is focusing to cover the unrepresented towns with growth potential in the next two years’ time frame.

 

Growth Drivers

 

The Company’s focus remains to increase the share of value added products along with top line growth. Large investments in different product segments have been made in the year. Further investments of Rs. 1800.000 millions have been planned to achieve the twin objective of top line growth and increase in share of value added products in the year 2010-11 in all its existing product segments. Substantial portion of these amounts will be spent in segments other than Performance Packaging film and Cross Laminated film. In these two segments, committed capacities have still to go in production, in one of them and due to lower capacity utilization in the other segment on account of shortage of labour.

 

OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

 

PLASTIC PIPING SYSTEMS

 

The PVC resin prices were less volatile during the Financial Year 2009-2010 compared to previous years. The resin prices remained range-bound There has been addition to the resin production capacity of Chemplast Sanmar Limited taking total local production capacity to 1.2 million tons. However, the demand during the year 2009-2010 has reached 1.8 million tons, thus creating large dependence on imports. There are hardly any large capacity coming up for manufacture of PVC resin in the world market and therefore, the supply side of resin is appearing to remain tight and the country will depend continuously on large volume imports. Since both Europe and USA have still not come out of recession, the present global resin capacity may appear adequate for some time. However, the Company will have to depend on imports to a large extent.It is estimated that the PVC consumption in pipe segment has increased by about 20% during the period April 2009 to March 2010. Against this estimate the Company clocked a growth of around 17.5%. During the year the Company sold 110.58 million metres of pipes (97.23 million metres during 2008-2009) and 97.7 million pcs of fittings (72.79 million pcs during 2008-2009).

 

Both Gadegaon and Jalgaon plants were under consolidation phase during the year. This was the first full year of operation of moulding shop at Jalgaon after re-structuring and re-layout of the plant. There is further expansion undertaken to meet the growing demand of moulded fittings. The Company expects to commence full production of expanded capacity by July’2010. Hence, the Company will have benefit of increased production for the period of 11 months in the coming year. At Gadegaon, apart from completing the expansion activity in uPVC and CPVC production lines, the Company had undertaken a major project of mixing automation for large production capacity of Company’s PVC Pipe Division. The entire activity was completed by December 2009. The Company is seeing the benefit of automation in terms of increase in out put, reduction in man power requirement as well as consistency in quality. This has also helped in improving the environment in the mixing division. Apart from renewal of ISO 9001/2008 certification, the Gadegaon unit is way ahead in implementing (Environmental Management Systems) EMS (ISO 14001) and (Occupational, Health and Safety, Assessment Series) OHSAS (BS 18001) certification very soon. The Company expects to receive both the certifications during the first quarter of the current year.

 

The Gadegaon plant has also got BIS certification for marking of

 

a) Irrigation Lateral Tubes as per IS 12786-1989

b) HDPE pipes for sewage application as per IS 14333 -1996

c) PPRC Pipes as per IS 15801-2001

d) The Company has also received approvals for Sprinkler pipes for both Part I and Part II as per IS 14151 – 1999

 

The quality of various pipes and fittings manufactured by the Company are acknowledged as the best in the market place. The brand names “Supreme”,”Acqua Gold”, “Life Line” and ‘Indo Green” are capturing various markets on PAN India basis. The  Company is in the process of creating a training centre to train people about right method of installation of various piping products. The Company is also building a Display Centre showing various systems made by the Company. Both the training and display centre will be ready by September 2010. The training centre will undertake a certification course for the plumbers. The curriculum for the same is under preparation. The training centre and display centre will also be used for training farming community for right use of the piping products in a given application. The Company’s channel partners will be encouraged to bring more of their dealers/sub-dealers and end customers to visit the training and display centre. The objective is to provide appropriate knowledge about Company’s products to the end users. This will also educate the customers to know the advantages of plastic piping products over pipes made from conventional products. This may also enable the Company to establish Brand loyalty with the end users. Similarly plumbing contractors, Civil Engineers, Developers and Architects may visit the training cum display centre to enable them to know the wide variety of products the Company makes alongwith their usage. Presently the Company is the only Company which can claim of having various systems available for different applications required in the field of Irrigation, water transportation, industrial usage, infrastructure requirements, Borewell, requirement for building industry, sewerage and rain water harvesting from a single source. The Company has planned to expand it’s capacity at the Kanpur plant to 15000 Tons p.a. from the present level of 8000 Tons p.a. The Company hopes to commission the new capacity before December 2010. The Company has acquired further 7 acres of adjoining land for this purpose. This will facilitate the Company to expand further capacity at the same location. Due to drought conditions in many parts of the country last year, there was de-growth in the irrigation sector. Because of the drought condition, many State Governments had enforced a ban on digging new Borewells. With the onset of good monsoon and forecast of good rain fall during the current year the Company expects more demand for its products for Irrigation as well as Borewell sectors. The Company’s pipes and fittings are finding better acceptance in Drip Irrigation segment. Most prominent brands like Neta fim, John Deere and Harwell Azud are continuously sourcing their requirement of PVC pipes and fittings from the Company. The  Company’s products are quite popular in housing segment. The Company’s newly launched CPVC Lifeline products grew more than 120% in volume over the previous year. The Company is ready to launch complete range of CPVC pipes and fittings as per ASTM standards above 2” dia and upto 4” dia. This will enable the Company to participate in Industrial applications. The Company expects to have substantial growth in CPVC business during the current year. The Company’s PPRC products for Hot and Cold water plumbing applications are doing well. Due to shortage of power in rural India, the use of CPVC is gaining strength over PPRC system. The Company’s lead free “Aqua gold” plumbing system for cold water carrying has grown nearly 50% over previous year. The brand is quite popular at the market place. It is successful in replacing GI products in housing industry. The cost of product is less than 50% of GI pipes and hence housing segment is benefited in terms of getting a superior quality product with more than double the life of GI pipe at a much lower cost. The Company expects this pipe line system to grow manifold in years to come. The Company is planning to introduce a new economy range of plumbing products to suit the requirement of rural Indian market where most of the houses are single storied. The Company expects the replacement market to become prominent as more and more buildings will undergo renovation. To meet this additional requirement of market, the Company is focusing on retail marketing. It expects to create large numbers of retail network on PAN India basis, through its channel partners. Presence in retail market will improve the visibility of the Company’s products. It may also help in building the Brand image of the Company’s piping systems. The Government of India has announced addition of 28 more cities under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) scheme. The Company is seeing the growth in its market share in earlier announced 63 cities and towns under JNNURM. The Company expects enhanced opportunities to further expand business in more cities under this scheme. The overall real estate business for housing is on a high growth path. This will increase the market for Plastics Piping System. The Company’s products being respected in the housing segment will be benefited with the growth in housing sector. The Company’s business of polyethylene pipes has grown nearly 100% by volume over the previous year. This will be the first year during which the Company has launched its sprinkler system in several states. The Company expects to grow polyethylene pipe business substantially during the current year. There has been wide acceptance in use of Injection moulded as well as Rotational Moulded Chambers for sewerage system. Most of the developers who used Company’s chambers are acknowledging the benefit of ready to install plastic chambers against conventional chambers made from brick masonry. The Company expects higher growth in time to come for this application. The Company is installing 1 mtr dia Manhole at couple of locations to demonstrate the effectiveness of plastic Manhole for use of sewer transportation. On user’s complete satisfaction, this may change the handling of sewer transportation system in cities and towns in favour of 1 metre plastics manhole. On the export front there was de-growth during the year. Both Australia and U K markets were in the grip of recession while most of the GCC countries were also under similar situation. The de-growth was 9.21% in value terms. Both the Central as well as State Governments are committed to supply potable drinking water to all the Villages through right pipe system.. They also intend to improve sanitation facilities by installing right sewage transportation and treatment plants. All this will mean more demand for plastic pipes systems. Micro Irrigation is also one of the thrust area of Government of India. The Company is taking adequate steps to develop more products to cater to supply to Micro Irrigation requirements. The Company could increase the sale of Value Added Products, during the year. The Company has achieved a sale of 17.78% of Value Added Products compared to 12.79% of last year. During the current year the Company aims to increase the sale of Value Added products to 20% of total sales.

MATS

 

The main stay of this business being exports, the performance of Mat Division has hampered due to recession in global market. Overall volume declined by about 10% and margins have also shrunk. Depreciation of Rupee during last quarter and improvement in overseas market demand are expected to improve the performance of this division in the current year.

 

INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS

 

The year started with recovery in Global as well as Indian economy after a recessionary year. Growth in both the auto sector and Consumer Durable sector remained good. The Division achieved growth of over 21% in both value and volume terms Growth  in Auto sector and Appliances and Entertainment Electronics sector remained at 21% and 22% respectively during the year. Revival in auto sector in particular is significant.

To take care of increased demand in Entertainment Electronics and Appliances segment, the Company is putting up a new facility at Chennai. It is expected to be operational by August 2010. Similarly, facilities at Puduchery and Noida plants are being expanded to take care of increased volume in this segment. Company has bagged prestigious all Plastic Body Washing Machine project from Whirlpool. Its production is expected to start by September 2010. These initiatives will accelerate the growth in Appliances and Electronics business segments in the years to come. One of the significant achievements during the year was the prestigious order being awarded to the Company for manufacturing Water Purifiers (Tata Swach) by Tata Chemicals Limited Geographical spread of the Company would be immensely beneficial to them in catering to their Pan-India requirement at economical cost. Supplies have started in IInd half of the year from Talegaon and have been fully stabilized with requisite Quality and Productivity norms. Company has also started production of Water Purifiers from its Noida facility from June 2010. The company is expanding facilities at its Noida, Gadegaon and Durgapur locations, to meet requirement of Tata ‘Swach’ during the current year. During the year, the Company had the honour to receive certification for Energy Management System i.e. EN 16001-2009 for its Noida and Khushkhera Plants.. They became first and second plant in Plastic Category and IIIrd and IVth plants respectively in overall manufacturing in the country to get this certification. As a part of continuous up gradation and implementation of Quality Management system, Noida, Durgapur, Khushkhera and Talegaon units got recertified for TS 16949 from 2002 to 2009 version. There has been continuous thrust on safety, Healty and Hygiene. The Company’s all plants are either certified for Environment Management System or working on the same. Various steps were taken to improve Quality Ratings with the customers. Khushkhera unit got recognition from Maruti Suzuki India Limited for its performance in Manufacturing Excellence. Continuous focus on cost reduction by way of removing non-value added activities, better inventory management, improved productivity norms, use of Value Engineering, Value Analysis techniques and focused drive to reduce energy consumption has yielded improved results.

The Company is increasing the business involving these processes for better value addition. Overall efforts are on to increase the customer and product base to ensure sustained growth of 20% to 25% in value, year on year basis.

 

The Company achieved a value growth of approx. 25% and a volume growth of approximate 20% during last year. This was inspite of poor performance in retail chain business as well as poor crops of Tomato and Grapes where the Company’s products are preferred for post harvest transportation. The Company’s other businesses could be achieved as planned including that of soft drink industry which fared quite well. The Company has further developed several new moulds to cater to ever increasing applications. Supplies of these products will commence from second quarter of 2010-11 The Company continues to service its clients with least lead time at economical cost by manufacturing at six own manufacturing sites spread across the country. The Company intends to increase the same further by starting a new manufacturing facility at Andhra Pradesh.

PROTECTIVE PACKAGING PRODUCTS

 

The last financial year ended with an indication of potential to a good business growth in all the three business verticals viz. Packaging, Construction and Insulation, in the forthcoming years. The business of the first half of the year was not encouraging, but there was significant growth achieved in the second half of the year. The overall business growth recorded 22.8% in volume and 18.9% in value.

 

PACKAGING

 

In the last few years, the packaging business growth was not so significant which has now re-gained its pace. More and more institutional customers are increasing their intake and switching over to the Company from the competitors for reliability and service factor. This has finally resulted in a growth of 17% in volume and 11% in value (after a negative growth in the first 6 months). The existing manufacturing capacity of foam in all locations are fully booked, the division is now working to enhance the overall saleable capacity of foam from 7200 MTPA to 9400 MTPA.

The plant at Malanpur which commenced production last year is now fully booked and a second plant at Urse is now getting commissioned. this will start commercial production from August 2010. In view of the wide spread acceptance of this product, the Company expects a substantial growth in business this year. Business of the other in-house value added products like Dura Membrane (construction) / Insure flector (insulation) is also growing very well. Both products are now gaining wide acceptance amongst consultants and users alike and are expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the business in the coming years. The division has been developing business with several imported foam products with an intention of manufacturing the same after building a critical business mass. The business growth of these products is encouraging. The Company believes that it may need to set up manufacturing facilities for some of the products during the financial year 2011-2012. Existing plant area of Hosur has been fully utilized for a couple of years now. As the business of South Zone is growing consistently since the last few years, the Company has diverted auxiliary manufacturing to rented places around its plant. There is now a need to enhance plant capacities. Accordingly, the Company intend to set up a new facility not very far from their existing facility. This will help the Company to also consolidate its existing multi location operation to 2 units. The Company hopes to purchase land during the year in a nearby location of existing plant for Hosur plant–2 and likely to start commercial production during the beginning of next financial year. The revision of the pollution guidelines by the Government of Maharashtra, has enabled to start the Urse plant, which was held up due to the pollution clearance. The commercial production of the unit has commenced from Sept. 2009 onward. The business of the west zone has accelerated on account of customers getting quality products with better logistic service on account of locational advantage of this plant. The foam production capacity of this plant is now fully booked. The single stage cross link foam plant is now installed and would be sold out by the next quarter. Chemically cross link foam plant also will be installed by August 2010 at the same location. Nandesari unit which was not contributing to the business growth of the division since last few years due to polluting environment and other issues is now closed. All legal formalities have been completed. All the major equipments are reconditioned and shifted to other plants. All these equipments have been now running to their original design capacity. The land and building has been sold and the transaction shall be completed in the first quarter of the year. The Company’s Malanpur unit is connected with CNG from GAIL, which will fulfill the major fuel needs of the unit in an economical way. Many projects for energy conservation will be initiated in future. A very unique foam Extruder with a capacity of 500 Kg/hr (first time in India) will be installed at Malanpur during the year to cater to the increasing needs of north Indian market. R and D centre with Pilot plant facility will be installed at Urse during the year which will further enhance the capability to develop technically superior products as well as reduce cost of existing products. Proper utilization of Human resources and automation will also be a major focus area during the current year to overcome the crisis which has been faced specially in operations which are labour intensive. Engineering Department is working towards mechanizing in all areas of operation by incorporating several changes in the existing designs of the converting equipments. The Company expects a growth of over 20% in the coming year.

 

CROSS LAMINATED FILM

 

Cross Laminated Film is used for making Tarpaulins, bags, rainwater harvesting systems, fumigation covers, vermibed, water tank and varieties of other agricultural applications. Business for Cross Laminated film and products grew by 14% in both volume and value terms. The Company sold 11554 tons of products against 10174 tons during the previous year. Due to poor rainfall throughout the country during June to August 2009, the sales for the first quarter of the year were adversely affected as lot of material sold at the year end remained in the pipeline. Demand for the Company’s products picked up from mid October but barring few months the Company could not achieve the expected fabrication level mainly due to shortage of labour. This resulted in demand outstripping the supply and lower utilisation of installed capacity. This year the monsoon is predicted to be normal which may definitely boost demand for the Company’s products. The Company has now made additional arrangements to enhance the fabrication capacity, which was a limiting factor in the previous year, by deploying new contractors, imparting vigorous training to labourers under these contractors and automation of some of the processes involved in the fabrication activity.

 

The Company has a strong presence in European market which is still reeling under low growth phase. Despite this the exports of Cross Laminated film products have posted positive growth of 3%. Exports increased to 1320 tons from 1281 tons in the previous year. Export Orders worth I 18.000 Millions remained unexecuted at the year end. The spurt in demand for the Company’s products in the last few months specially from newer foreign markets is a pointer towards potential of substantial volume growth in exports in the years to come. The overall business of the division is likely to grow by 25% in volume in the coming year.

 

The Company’s collaborators have developed Cross Line Bonded film, which is a next generation XF film having superior properties. They have been granted Indian patent for this film valid upto 2023. The Company has launched this film in the Indian market and is awaiting its feedback. As per the agreement entered into by the company, the company enjoys an exclusive right to produce the same in India and SAARC Countries and export to all countries in the world except Portugal, Spain and Switzerland. The Company’s collaborators have also developed Cross Plastic Film on a pilot scale and have identified machine manufacturers for producing this film. The collaborator is in dialogue with several prospective licensees for this product. Once the production establishes at commercial level with other licensees for this product, the Company may think to install a similar facility in India. The Company has been granted exclusivity to make this product for Indian sub-continent market.

 

CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS

 

The swanky commercial complex “Supreme Chambers”, a Green Corporate Park, built by the Company is now ready for occupation. Soon, it would become prominent landmark with many eco-friendly features, modern technology, state of the art amenities and aesthetically designed architecture. The services of the building conform to the global practices. The Interior spaces are in tune with the international modular standard systems. It is located in the flourishing and burgeoning Business District of Andheri (West), Mumbai.. The entire complex has been developed in medium blocks, each independent of the other, enabling the Company to sell the spaces in various sizes and combinations, as required by the user. It has been the endeavour of the company to make this Corporate office building, an exemplary enterprise of this modern era. So far, the Company has sold one office block and negotiations for a few more are at advanced stage of finalization. With continuous improvement in the demand for quality commercial space, the Company is optimistic to sell most of the remaining blocks during the current year.

 

OVERALL GROWTH PROSPECTS

 

The business conditions are favourable. Several new capacities are added over a period of previous three years with large investments to achieve top line growth alongwith increase in share of value added products. Year after year, the share of value added products are growing resulting into improved operating profit margin. In the previous year, the company achieved a volume growth of 12%. The company expects to achieve a volume growth of 20% plus in the current year. The Company apart from making investments in the existing segments, is seriously moving ahead to add two new segments in plastics products in the current year.
