OPERATING RESULTS AND PROFITABILITY

 

The fiscal year 2009-10 began with the apprehension that the global economic slowdown, H1N1 virus and delayed monsoon in India would severely impact all businesses. However, effective Government intervention and stimulus measures helped the Indian economy grow at around 7%. The Euro zone and the United States witnessed recessionary pressures for almost the whole year. Yet, the flexible packaging business in India continued on its normal growth path.

 

The Net Sales for the year increased by 6% to Rs.4856.000 millions as compared to Rs.4564.000 millions in the previous year. The sales increase in volume terms has been 16%. The difference is due to the reduction made in unit selling prices in line with the lower raw material prices.

 

Domestic Sales have registered a growth of 12% from Rs.2467.000 millions in the previous year to Rs.2769.000 millions. Export Sales have remained steady at Rs.2086.000 millions largely due to the appreciation of the Rupee.

 

OUTLOOK

The Indian economy is projected to grow in a healthy band of 8.5-9% in the coming years. This augurs well for the industrial growth in India in general and justifies a feeling of optimism for the growth in the flexible packaging business in particular. Though demand levels are expected to rise in 2010-11, there are a few concerns which are likely to have an impact on profitability. The GBP and the Euro have weakened significantly against the Rupee adversely affecting export realization. The hardening of raw material prices and inability to pass on the increased cost to customers is having a dampening effect on margins as compared to the previous year.

The Company is putting additional thrust on the U.S. and African markets to get increased Dollar based export sales. Apart from this, the Company is making determined efforts to improve cost effectiveness, innovation and productivity to face the challenging market conditions.

Net Sales during the first four months of the current financial year 2010-11 are Rs.1,640 million as against Rs.1,500 million in the corresponding period of the previous year.

EXPANSION PLANS

Looking to the demand potential and to offer value added services to the customers, the following expansion plans have been drawn up:

1.      Upgradation and addition of new printing and blown film line at Flexibles Division, Khopoli. These are expected to result in a capacity enhancement of 500 MT per month.

2.      A Metalliser at Cast Polypropylene (CPP) Films Division, Ambernath. This will help the Division offer additional metallised CPP of 200 MT per month.

The expansion projects under execution at various Divisions are expected to cost approximately Rs.750 million. The same is being funded by an External Commercial Borrowing of USD 10 million (Equivalent to approx. Rs.450 million) with the balance from internal accruals.

NEW PROJECT AT BENGALURU

The Company is evaluating various proposals for offering new and innovative products to its customers. The Company is in the process of acquiring additional land at Bommasandra-Jigani Industrial Area, Bengaluru from Karnataka Industrial Area Development Board. The decision on the project to be set up and financial closure would be taken in the third quarter of the current financial year 2010-11.

 

FINANCE

During the year under review, the Company has further consolidated its financial position. The highlights of the same are as under:

a.      External Commercial Borrowing of Rs.100 million has been converted into equity.

b.      Bank Loans and External Commercial Borrowing of Rs.426 million have been repaid.

c.      Redemption of Preference Shares of Rs.53 million.
