HISTROY

Subject was founded in 1943, by Mohan T Advani, an entrepreneur of exemplary vision and drive. The Company began as a modest 3-member team engaged in reconditioning of air conditioners and refrigerators.

Within three years, the Company secured the agency for US-based Melchoir Armstrong Dessau's air conditioning equipment. Shortly after, the Company was selected by Worthington, the US leader in air conditioning, as its India based partner - these were the first of numerous foreign associations to follow.

An expanding Subject then ventured into the manufacture of ice candy machines and bottle coolers and also began the design and execution of central air conditioning projects. Then came the manufacture of water coolers. In 1949, the proprietorship company set its sights on bigger expansion, took on shareholders and became Subject.

Ever since, there has been a constant and profitable growth. Subject diversified and took up agencies for Material Testing Machines and Business Machines. The export arena beckoned and the Company began exporting water coolers to Dubai, where in fact, 'Subject' soon became the generic name for water coolers.

The sixties and the early seventies witnessed Subject continuing to expand and thrive. A team of dedicated professionals aided Mohan T Advani in ever furthering his vision of a profitable company dedicated to its ideals of professionalism and success. Employee strength crossed the 1000 mark and the company went public in 1969 to become Subject, as it continues to be called today.

In 1970, the Company took up the all-India distributorship of Hewlett-Packard products, a business relationship which continues today and has grown ever stronger through the years. As the Company's reputation for delivering the goods in the most challenging of air conditioning projects grew steadily, the early seventies saw a series of prestigious projects being entrusted to Subject - skyscrapers such as Air India Building, Express Towers, the Oberoi Hotel in Mumbai, apart from several others. Revenues touched the Rs. 100.000 Millions mark and staff strength doubled to exceed 2000.

As its Indian presence reached greater heights, the Company began building determinedly upon its existing overseas presence, Subject set up a joint venture with Al Shirawi in Dubai and went on to execute some outstanding projects in Syria, Iraq and Saudi Arabia. To complement its air conditioning projects and undertake turnkey industrial projects, an Industrial Division was set up in 1978.

Always moving with the times and ever on the lookout for business possibilities, subject next set up a software export unit at Seepz, Mumbai in 1983. Then came associations with more global leaders - a collaboration with York International of USA for central air conditioning equipment and joint ventures with Motorola and Yokogawa.

In 1984, Ashok M Advani and Suneel M Advani, the sons of Mohan T Advani, took over the reins of the Company, after spending nearly 15 years within the Company steadily climbing up the ladder. A renewed thrust was placed on the company's core business areas - air conditioning and refrigeration and the distribution of professional electronics equipment - and the company emerged a market leader in these focus areas.

The nineties witnessed India entering an era of economic liberalisation and an upsurge in competition as the dynamic business scenario attracted the world's most forward-looking corporations. It was time to re-look at existing business competencies, re-engineer those that were obsolete and forge ahead in acquiring new business competencies. Subject was more than equal to the challenge and expansion continued unabated.

In keeping with this focus, an advanced manufacturing facility was set up at Dadra in 1997, in technical collaboration with Rheem, USA, to enhance manufacturing competency. Today it bears the distinction of being regarded as the best such plant India-wide. The dealer network was strengthened and expanded to bring products within easy reach of every customer.

With the advent of the much awaited new millennium in 2000, the action continued. The software unit was spun off into a separate company, Subject InfoTech Limited., the export of air conditioning products from the Dadra factory began and contract manufacturing for local and foreign brands commenced. A new Corporate Vision was developed - "To deliver a world-class customer experience". Every employee is determined to follow this vision and keep their organization a competitive and forward-looking one.

Subject crossed the Rs. 5000.000 Millions milestone in 2000 and the Rs. 6000.000 Million milestone in 2002-03. With the boom in construction activity and increased infrastructure investments, the Company leveraged its leadership position to grow aggressively. In the following three years, the Company nearly doubled its turnover, clocking Rs 11780.000 Millions in 2005-06.

Even more than size, Subject enjoys an enviable reputation as an ethical corporation, ever mindful of its obligations towards customers, shareholders, dealers, business partners, employees and the environment in which it operates.

HIGHLIGHTS OF 2008-09:
 
·                            Total Income grew by 13% to Rs. 25740.400 Millions.
 
·                            Profit after Tax increased moderately by 4% to Rs.1802.900 Millions   because last year included a non-recurring boost due to exceptional income   of Rs.353.200 Millions.
 
·                            Earnings per share were Rs.20.04 (face value of Rs.2.00) compared to Rs.19.36 in the previous year.
 
·                            A  dividend  of  Rs.7.00  per  share  (same  as  last  year)  has   been  Recommended.
 
·                            Good cash flow reduced borrowings for the second year in succession to Rs. 236.000 Million at year-end from Rs. 365.400 Millions in the previous year.
 

 

OPERATING PERFORMANCE

 

The economic slowdown impacted the Company's revenue growth during the year. While the Electro Mechanical Projects and Packaged Air-conditioning segment showed marginal growth, Cooling Products and Professional Electronics and Industrial Systems recorded a small decline. However, on the profit front, Cooling Products and Professional Electronics and Industrial Systems segments recorded positive growth which offset the small reduction in the Electro Mechanical Projects and Packaged Air-conditioning segment. This, together with an exceptional item of sale of investments, increased the Profit After Tax by 17% during the year.

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Effective cost control measures coupled with lower cost of finance helped the Company to cope with flat revenues. Financial expenses including interest cost reduced by over 50%. However, slow cash collections and increased Sundry Debtors reduced the net cash flow from operations. Nevertheless, good inventory management and suppliers' credit kept overall borrowings under control - a marked reduction to Rs. 89.300 millions from Rs. 272.800 millions in the previous year. The Company made additional investments in fixed assets amounting to Rs. 474.700 millions during the year which was financed entirely out of internal resources. The Earnings per share increased by 17% to Rs. 23.52 per equity share of Rs. 2/- each.

They maintained record high operating margins by good supply chain management and controlled operating expenses. Finance costs were also substantially lower. There are some early signs that the worst of the economic slowdown is behind us, but it is too early to predict the speed of the recovery. Their carry forward order book is reasonably comfortable and the Company remains lean and efficient, so I am confident about their ability to capitalise on growth opportunities as they develop.”

Subject launches innovative cooling solution for storage of seeds

Central air conditioning and commercial refrigeration major, Subject, has announced the launch of an innovative cooling solution for seeds called 'Precision Climate Seed Storage (PCSS) System', at a Press Conference held in Hyderabad on September 12, 2009.

Seeds are a precious resource and if stored in ambient conditions deteriorate rapidly. Since seed consumption is not always immediate, the excess seeds, when not stored in controlled conditions, get wasted. Thus, there is a constant and rising demand for safe storage of seeds in the interim.

Recognizing this need of the hour, Subject has introduced a seed storage system which ensures the storage of the seeds at precise temperatures and humidity levels thereby preserving them over longer periods of time, reducing waste and increasing yield. Despite the fact that agriculture forms a significant part of India's GDP,seed storage facilities currently in the country are unreliable and in most cases non-existent. Investments in Subject's PCSS will have an immediate and positive impact on the economic growth of the country.

Subject's PCSS system is a unique, factory-fitted, integrated package that includes all elements essential for a precision temperature and humidity control system – a built-in dehumidification system, high-purity filters, and of course a state-of-the-art refrigeration system, all controlled by a central microprocessor to ensure precise control.

Moreover, the system is highly energy efficient as it does not add direct heat to dehumidify like the conventional method, assuring a very low cost of ownership. The built-in controller also automatically ensures run-time equalisation of units and compressors, increasing reliability and reducing failure. Built robust, the PCSS is designed to operate 24x7 as demanded by the industry. The PCSS is modular in design and uses an open-architecture control protocol. It is manufactured using state-of-the-art techniques in Subject's ISO-9001 certified plant at Dadra.

Speaking to the Press at the launch, Mr B Thiagarajan, President, Channel Business Group, said "The Indian seed industry is estimated to be a Rs. 57000.000 Millions market with an expected annual growth rate of 15%, well higher than the global average. It is imperative to preserve seeds considering that they are a precious resource and have the ability to boost the nation's economy. Subject has been a significant player in the commercial refrigeration industry and is also a member of the CII's National Task Force set up by the Government of India to enhance the cold chain infrastructure in the country. The launch of their Precision Climate Seed Storage system is yet another example of their commitment to preserve and extend life of perishables."
