FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

 

The gross Sales of the Company increased by 58.38% from Rs. 4536.65 Million in 2009-10 to Rs. 7185.31 Million in  2010-11.  9.64 Million wheel rims were sold in 2010-11 as compared to 7.17 Million wheel rims  in the previous financial year. This corresponds to an increase of 34.41% in numbers of wheels. The comparatively higher increase in sales could be achieved thanks to the higher volumes of Exports, Truck and tractor wheels sold during the financial year.

 

The Earnings before interest and depreciation (EBITDA) increased by 42.21 % from Rs. 622.49 Million in 2009 10 to Rs. 885.25 Million in 2010-11. The EBITDA margin has slightly decreased to 12.34% from 13.76% in 2009-10 due to increasing steel prices during the financial year.

 

A significant increase could be achieved in Profits before and after tax in 2010-11. They grew by 81.53% to Rs. 355.74 and by 105.18% to Rs. 298.02 Million respectively. The depreciation and other amortization increased to Rs. 328.05 Million from Rs. 255.27 Million due to the enhanced utilization of the Dappar and Oragadam plants and the commencement of commercial operations at Jamshedpur.

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

The focus of the Company is to develop world-class facilities for the manufacture of quality steel wheel rims for all segments of the automotive industry while increasing its customer base in India as well as internationally.

 

The growth of the automobile component industry is likely to slow down considerably in 2011 -12 from the high growth rates of 26- 30% seen during 2010-11. This is due to higher price of vehicles and rising interest rates. The expected growth rates for 2011 -12 are expected to be around 8-10 percent in the domestic market and exports by around 70 percent.

Industry Overview

The automobile industry is one of the fastest growing sectors in India. The increase in the demand of cars and other vehicles, powered by the increase in incomes, is the primary growth driver of India’s automobile industry. The introduction of tailor made finance and easy repayment schemes have further enhanced this growth scenario.

 

As per data released by SIAM India, the automobile industry witnessed a growth of 27.45% in production during 2010-11(17.92 million nos vehicles as compared to 14.06 million nos vehicles during the previous year) which is the highest since 2004-05. Four wheelers witnessed a growth of 27.87% with 3.74 million nos as compared to 2.92 million nos during 2009-10 and two and three wheelers witnessed a growth of 27.34% with 14.18 mjllion nos as compared to 11.13 million nos during 2009-10.

Strengths of the Company

R and D Capabilities

The company is recognized by the government of India as a research and development centre and equipped with most state of the art designing capabilities in terms of technology and equipment. Its engineers are dedicated wheel rims fir customers across the world and strongly focused on value engineering of existing products with the aim of optimizing their cost. The tool room is equipped with most modern machines and testing equipments. The company enjoys an excellent reputation with its customers to its innovative design, valuable inputs and fast developments of tools.

 

Future Outlook and Business Plan

India not only emerged relatively unscathed from the global financial crisis of 2008, but has returned to its trend growth rate in 2010-11. Driven by the inherent strength of its domestic demand, which was suitably complemented by the Reserve Bank of India’s monetary management and the Central government’s fiscal stimulus, India’s GDP is expected to grow by 8.6 per cent in 2010-11 as per the CSO Advanced Estimate. This will again make India one of the fastest growing economies in the world.

 

The growth of the automobile component industry is likely to moderate to single digits in 2011-12 from the high growth rates of 26- 30% seen during 2010-11. This is due to higher prices of vehicles and rising interest rates. The company expects to grow its export business by at least 70 percent in numbers and the truck wheel business by a minimum of 50 percent. The tractor wheel business is expected to be up by 25 percent.

 

The Union Budget 2011-12 has proposed to extend the excise duty refund available to taxis having a seating capacity of less than 7 and to other vehicles having a seating capacity of up to 13 passengers. This is expected to marginally aid the sales of utility vehicles in the specified category. Also, the concessional excise duty of 10 per cent has been extended to vehicles based on fuel cell and hydrogen cell technology, which will improve the long term growth prospects of these vehicles.

 

Specified parts of hybrid vehicles have been exempted from basic customs duty and special CVD in the budget. In addition, excise duty on these parts has been reduced to 5 per cent from 10 per cent earlier, in order to incentivize domestic production and reduce import dependence. These factors are expected to aid the sales of hybrid vehicles and have a marginally positive impact on the passenger cars industry over the longer term.

 

The increase in exemption limits of tax slabs for individual tax payers from Rs. 0.160 Million to Rs. 0.180 Million is likely to lead to increase in disposable incomes of addressable households, and thus aid two-wheeler sales.

 

Enhancement of interest subvention on crop loans from 2 to 3 per cent, revision of wage rates under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) scheme and increased allocation towards rural development projects like Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana are expected to have a marginally positive impact on two-wheeler and tractor sales. Moreover, announcement of the launch of the ‘National Mission for hybrid and electric vehicles’ is expected to benefit sales of hybrid and electric vehicles over the longer term.

 

All the above factors are likely to have a positive impact on the demand of our products in future. The company hopes to cope with these challenges with its continued focus on cost control, process efficiencies and product innovations.
