PERFORMANCE


2010-11 was a yet another year of growth and improved performance, with the Company registering the highest ever turnover and Profit Before Tax (PBT). The Company achieved a record sale of One Million Metric Tonnes of fertilizers for the second year in a row. Sales (including other income) of the Company for the year 2010-2011 was Rs.25238.300 Millions compared to Rs.20817.300 Millions in the previous year, registering a growth of 21%. The PBT at Rs.1120.400 Millions was higher compared to Rs.845.300 Millions during the previous year, representing an increase of 33%.

 

PRODUCTION

 

Urea


The Company achieved production of the full re-assessed capacity of 3,79,500 MTs.

 

Di-Ammonium Phosphate (DAP) and Complex Fertilizers


The Company achieved production of 2,23,552 MTs of Phosphatic Fertilizers during the year compared to 2,82,173 MTs in the previous year. The lower production is on account of erratic and inadequate supplies of phosphoric acid.

 

Ammonium Bi-Carbonate (ABC)


The Company achieved full capacity production of 15,330 MTs of ABC.

 

SALES


During the year, the Company sold 3,79,442 MTs of Urea compared to 3,83,338 MTs in the previous year. Sales of manufactured Phosphatic Fertilizers was 2,24,938 MTs compared to 2,80,413 MTs in the previous year. Sales of imported products registered significant growth, with imported Phosphatics at 2,07,320 MTs compared to 1,74,670 MTs in the previous year. Sales of Muriate of Potash was 88,052 MTs compared to 57,435 MTs in the previous year.

 

SULPHONATED NAPHTHALENE FORMALDEHYDE (SNF)

 

In line with the Company’s growth objective, a state-of-the-art plant with an annual production capacity of 21,450 MTs of liquid SNF was commissioned in August 2010. SNF is predominantly used in the construction chemical industry for manufacture of super plasticizer. The product samples were sent to leading customers for field trials and were well accepted. The liquid and powder forms of SNF were released to the market with the trade names ChemCF NL and ChemCF NP respectively. During the year, 4400 MTs of liquid SNF were produced.

 

INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT (INF)


The country is facing a serious problem of deterioration in soil productivity. Indiscriminate and unbalanced use of N.P.K fertilizers over the years and inadequate use of other nutrients essential for plant growth are amongst the main reasons for the loss in soil productivity.

 

Improvement in soil productivity and maintenance of the soil fertility can be achieved by the adoption of an Integrated Nutrient Management

(INM) approach. Having been actively associated with the farming community for over 3 decades, the Company believes it has a key role to play in helping the farmers to achieve higher productivity as well as superior quality of farm produce.

 

INM encompasses soil health management, water management, plant nutrition and plant protection. The Company has been engaged in imparting extensive and continuous education to farmers and channel partners on the need to practice INM techniques, so that all the essential nutrients are made available in time at every stage of crop growth.

 

To help the farmer achieve this objective, over the last few years, MCF has been developing and introducing Plant Nutrition (PN) products that are required for achieving root and shoot growth, more flowering, higher fruit and seed setting, improved quality and extended shelf-life of the produce.

 

Some of the crop specific PN products developed at the Company’s R and D unit in Hassan and introduced during the year include Mangala Tur Special and Mangala GT Booster for Tur, and Ginger and Turmeric crops, respectively. Mangala Cotton Special and Mangala Chilli Special for Bt. Cotton and Chilli crops are ready for introduction. These products, in addition to improving tolerance to crop specific diseases also lead to better quality and higher productivity. The response from the crop growers on the effectiveness of these products has been very positive and there is a growing demand for development of similar products for other crops.

 

In order to increase the coverage under its Integrated Nutrient Management program, the Company introduced two unique concepts viz. Mangala Mitra and Mangala Saathi. Under Mangala Mitra, opinion leaders in the villages are identified and enrolled to educate fellow farmers on various aspects of crop cultivation. Under the Mangala Saathi, the key channel partners are identified and are given special attention for promoting INM awareness.

 

All these efforts have led to the Company achieving a turnover of Rs.1000.000 Millions during the year compared to about Rs.6.200 Lakhs achieved during the year 2002-2003 when the INM concept was first introduced.

 

In order to meet the increasing demand for PN products, the Company has set up a Specialty Fertilizer manufacturing facility at its factory in Mangalore, to produce Water Soluble Fertilizers and Micronutrient Mixtures. The plant with an annual capacity of 12,000 MTs was commissioned in April 2011. Another facility to produce 10,000 MTs per annum of soil conditioners is under construction and will be commissioned during the current financial year.

 

PLANT PROTECTION CHEMICALS

 

As part of its diversification and growth strategy and in order to offer a wider range of agri inputs, the Company introduced Plant Protection (PP) Chemicals in July 2010. As an entry strategy, a collaborative approach was adopted, with the Company marketing the products of reputed pesticide companies through its channel partner network. During the first 9 months of operations, the business registered an impressive turnover of Rs.120.000 Millions. In the current financial year 2011-2012, in addition to the above arrangement, the Company also plans to launch its own brand of PP products for a few select molecules.

 

WORKING CAPITAL


During the year, the domestic production of fertilizers and import of fertilizers were almost at the same level as in the previous year. In order to meet its working capital needs, the Company also availed of short term loans from banks that carried lower rate of interest compared to normal cash credit limits. Settlement of subsidy claims was also relatively better during the year. All these factors and efficient working capital management contributed to reduction of interest costs.

 

FERTILIZER POLICY


Stage-III of the New Pricing Scheme (NPS) for Urea announced by the Government of India in March 2007 expired on March 31, 2010. As the new policy is yet to be finalized and announced, the existing scheme has been extended provisionally until further orders.

 

As per the existing policy, all Naphtha/Furnace Oil/LSHS based units were to convert to gas by March 31, 2010. However, this time limit is expected to be extended upto 31.03.2013 by Government of India, for which an official communication is awaited. A Gas Sale Agreement has been entered into with Indian Oil Corporation for supply of RLNG from Kochi Terminal of Petronet LNG Limited and a Gas Transmission Agreement has been signed with Gail (India) Limited. Based on latest indications, supply of gas to Mangalore is expected to commence by end 2012. Leading consultants have been engaged for the basic engineering study for gas conversion and for the power plant conversion from furnace oil to gas. The Company has already placed orders with Wartsila, Finland for supply of Dual Feed/NG DG sets to be commissioned in two phases in April 2012 and in April 2013 without affecting the normal production of Urea.

 

With effect from April 1, 2010, the government introduced a Nutrient Based Subsidy (NBS) policy for Phosphatic and Potassic fertilizers. In terms of this policy, each nutrient content in fertilizer, is assigned a value and the aggregate of these values is considered to arrive at the concession rates. Under NBS, the government announces the rate of subsidy in advance for the full year thereby enabling higher import and sale of fertilizers to meet the market needs.

 

SUBSIDIARY COMPANY


MCF International Limited, the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company had filed a Scheme, for its amalgamation with the Company, before the Honorable High Court of Karnataka, with the effective date of April 1, 2010. This scheme of amalgamation has been sanctioned by the Honorable High Court on July 8, 2011.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

Industry Structure and Developments

 

The Company has only one business segment, viz. Fertilizers. It manufactures both Nitrogenous and Phosphatic fertilizers and is the only manufacturer of fertilizers in the state of Karnataka. About 65% of the Company’s products are sold in the state of Karnataka, which meets about 25% of the needs of the farmers in the State. The Company maintains a modest share of the market in the neighbouring states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra.

 

Threats and Opportunities

 

Stage III of New Pricing Scheme (NPS) for Urea announced in March 2007 stipulated that existing Naphtha/Furnace Oil/LSHS units should convert to gas by 31.3.2010. Given the gas supply situation, the Government of India has extended the deadline for conversion provisionally until further orders. The Company has signed a Gas Supply Agreement with Indian Oil Corporation and a Gas Transmission Agreement with GAIL (India) Limited. The work on the LNG terminal at Kochi is progressing well. GAIL has already entered into a MOU with Governments of Karnataka and Kerala for right of use for laying the pipeline from Kochi to Mangalore. The gas pipeline connectivity to Mangalore is promised by March 2013. The Nutrient Based Subsidy Scheme (NBS) was introduced by the Government of India with effect from 1.4.2010, thereby enabling the Government to announce annual concession rates in advance, facilitating the Company to plan import of higher quantities of Phosphatic and Potassic fertilizers. The Company has entered into agreements with leading suppliers of fertilizers abroad for higher import of fertilizers during 2011-12.

 

Future Outlook

 

The demand for both Nitrogenous and Phosphatic fertilizers in India is increasing steadily, and expected to grow at a compounded annual rate of 5%. With the domestic production almost stagnant and the demand increasing, the supply deficit has to be met from imports. The Company plans higher import of Phosphatic/Potassic Fertilizers and Specialty Fertilizers.

 

Considering the significant success achieved due to its focus on Plant Nutrition business and given the enormous potential for growth, the Company would continue to focus and grow in that area and also look to diversify into other products that are synergistic with the existing operations.
