LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

Performance Review

 

In 2009-10 (15 months), the Company has continued to deliver robust performance with substantial growth in top line and bottom line at the backdrop of higher realizations and increased volumes supported by recent capacity expansion of 1 MT.

 

During the period (15 months), Production and Sales Volume of cement were at 7,851 KT and 7,797 KT respectively, underpinned by an additional 1.0 MT capacity commissioned at Mejia Cement Plant (March'2009) Like for like comparison:

 

Net Sales Increased by 39% and Ex-Shipping price increasing by 11%.

Operating Profits (EBIT) grew by 66%.

Profit Before Tax increased by 59%.

Profit After Tax increased by 39%.

 

Future Outlook

 

The Indian economic growth continues to remain strong as evident by the high GDP growth of past few quarters. The economic growth In 2010-11 is expected to be above 8% as against a robust 7.4% in previous year. The improving demand in new housing projects and investments in infrastructure indicate that cement demand IS likely to remain strong in the future. However, estimated Capacity addition about 7-8 MT in 2010-11 in Eastern markets may cause pressure on realisations.

 

The Company IS now accelerating development of greenfield projects and has commenced work on building the 2.6 MT new cement plant in Rajasthan. The ongoing 1.0 MT capacity expansion project at Jojobera is likely to be commissioned in 2010-11.
