LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION
STANDALONE
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Standalone revenue soared by 33% to Rs.64450.000 millions. Revenue
growth was driven by expansion in the Carbon Black business and strong volume
growth in Textiles business. Your Company posted its highest ever Standalone EBITDA which grew by 16%
from Rs.8350.000 millions to Rs.9700.000 millions and highest ever Standalone Net profit which grew by
34% from Rs.2830.000 millions to Rs.3800.000 millions. Growth in profitability
was contributed by strong volume growth in the Fashion and Lifestyle, Textiles
and Insulators businesses, higher agri-input sales in the agri-business and
higher power sales in the Carbon Black business. Profitability in the Rayon business
was strained by a steep rise in the input and fuel cost.

MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
INDIAN ECONOMY:
GROWTH OUTLOOK MODERATED AMIDST INFLATION
Indian economy has
recorded a strong growth in the financial year 2010-11, with GDP growing by
8.5% (year on year) compared to 8.0% in 2009-10. Agriculture sector grew by a
strong 6.6%, aided by the low base in 2009-10 due to poor monsoons. Industrial
sector growth at 7.9% was healthy and almost the same as the previous
year, while
services sector growth moderated to 9.4% from 10.1%. However, the GDP growth
had slowed down in the fourth quarter of 2010-11. GDP grew by 7.8% in the
fourth quarter compared to 8.3% in the preceding quarter.
The major theme in
the Indian economy currently is taming the high inflationary pressure.
Wholesale Price Index ("WPI") averaged 9.6% (year on year) in
2010-11. In the first three months of 2011-12, inflationary pressures still
remain strong, averaging 9.4%. While food inflation has come down from the
highs of 2010, inflation has been facing demand-side pressure. Non-food
manufacturing price (also called core inflation) is at almost record
highs. High global
crude oil prices, as well as government's decision to further deregulate
domestic retail prices of fuel, are keeping fuel inflation up.
The RBI has been
tightening its monetary policy consistently in order to control inflationary
pressure. The RBI's policy rate (repo rate) has been increased by 275 bps since
April 2010, in an effort to rein inflation. High inflation, coupled with high
interest rates owing to RBI's monetary tightening, has adversely affected
growth, especially investment. Lead indicators are pointing towards moderation of growth in the financial
year 2011-12.
Globally, there
are concerns in the form of high government debt and high unemployment in the
developed economies. However, during the year, global environment remained more
or less supportive of

LIFE INSURANCE
(BIRLA SUN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY LIMITED)
Industry Overview
The Indian Life
Insurance industry currently comprises 22 private life insurers and one public
sector insurer – Life Insurance Corporation of
Having more than
11,500 branches and approximately 2.7 million agents, the life insurance
industry witnessed major regulatory changes during 2010-11. The Insurance
Regulatory and Development Authority ("IRDA") issued new guidelines
for Unit Linked Insurance Products (ULIP) effective from 1st September 2010.
The major provisions in the new guidelines included the capping of difference
between gross yield and net yield, capping of surrender charges, increasing
minimum lock in period and minimum premium payment term from three years to
five years, even distribution of charges over lock-in period, etc. IRDA also
issued distribution related regulations through tightening of licensing norms
for corporate agency and prescribing minimum persistency requirements for
individual life insurance agents.
While the life
insurance industry experienced strong growth before new guidelines became
effective, it witnessed a sharp reduction in new business premium post
September 2010. This was primarily on account of:
·
Withdrawal of all previous ULIPs by life insurers
to comply with the new regulatory framework and transitioning to new ULIPs.
Notably, the guidelines were not only unprecedented but were implemented in a
short time frame.
·
Rationalisation of distributors’ compensation in
line with ULIP guidelines.
·
Sales mix of several players shifting in the favour
of Non-ULIPs.
·
Several players shifting towards single premium.
Hence, the industry had reported relatively higher de-growth on the basis of
weighted new business premium.
The new ULIP
regulations brought a paradigm shift across the life insurance sector. Industry
is moving towards a more balanced product mix thereby increasing share of
traditional plans. Other shifts include increased focus on cost
rationalisation, productivity metrics and profitability. Several of the top
private life insurers have reported statutory profits in 2010-11. Rising
in-force business, better expense efficiency and a better product mix has led
to profits.
Though ULIP sales
were affected across the industry post new guidelines, these changes are
expected to have a positive impact on the industry in the long run, in terms of
quality of business, long-term orientation, efficiencies in distribution,
operations and customer service, etc.
Performance Review

Insurance ("BSLI") completed its
11th year of successful operations amidst challenging environment. BSLI
ranked among top 6 private life insurers in
In 2010-11, new
business premium income of BSLI at Rs.20800.000 millions de-grew year on year
by 30%. ULIP sales were impacted across the industry post-new guidelines, which
became effective from 1st September, 2010. However, non-ULIP sales gained
traction. For BSLI, non-ULIPs contributed 25% of its individual new business
vis-à-vis 1% in the previous year
Driven by strong
persistency, the renewal premium of BSLI surged by 41% to Rs.35970.000
millions. The total premium income grew by 3% to Rs.56770.000 millions. AUM
rose by 23% to Rs.197600.000 millions (about USD 4.4 billion). As a life
insurer with a longestablished track record, a significant portion of BSLI's
business (about 95%) is on regular premium basis, which drives a regular stream
of renewal premiums. The 13th month persistency at 83% signifies customer
stickiness and is one of the best in the industry.
Various cost
rationalisation initiatives were undertaken during the year. As a result, BSLI
achieved savings of more than Rs.1200.000 millions in operating expenses. The
operating expenses to gross premium ratio improved from 24.1% in 2009-10 to
21.2% in 2010-11. Commission ratio reduced from 9.4% in 2009-10 to 6.7% in
2010-11.
Driven by growing
in-force book, balanced product mix, lower new business strain and better
expense management, BSLI posted its maiden profit in 2010-11. It posted
earnings before tax at Rs.3040.000 millions vis-à-vis loss of Rs.4350.000
millions in the preceding year. No capital infusion was required during
2010-11.
The profitability
of a life insurance company, given the Indian accounting and reserving
standards and regulations, is better reflected by the Embedded Value ("EV")
and Value of New Business ("VNB") generated by the Company. The EV of
BSLI has increased from Rs.38160.000 millions as at 31st March, 2010 to
Rs.41080.000 millions as at 31st March, 2011. EV reflects the value of future
profits embedded in the in-force policies written by the life insurance
company. The VNB margin, a measure used for gauging profitability of new
business has increased to 27.5% for the financial year 2010-11 up from 22.5%
reported for previous financial year. Shift towards a balanced product mix and
innovative product structure helped BSLI in achieving strong VNB margin.
Birla Sun Life
Insurance has achieved robust growth across the parameters.
In the direction
of achieving a balanced product portfolio, BSLI launched five traditional plans
and eight ULIPs (as per new guidelines) during the year.
Direct Selling
Agents channel continues to be the largest distribution channel for BSLI
contributing 71% of its individual new business sales during the year.
Bancassurance channel contributed 16% and Corporate Agents and Brokers
contributed 13% of its individual new business sales. BSLI has taken several
initiatives to improve productivity of agency force and enhance distributor
engagement across the channels.
BSLI continued to
deliver superior investment returns to its policyholders with every fund
beating the benchmark. BSLI achieved the distinction of attaining 'zero per
cent' claims outstanding ratio for the second year, meaning, 100% of all the
claims intimated during the year have been processed. This is a live example of
its 'Customer First' approach and clearly speaks of the strong system and
processes it has set in.
Outlook
The financial year
2010-11 was challenging for the life insurance industry. However, the long term
growth potential of the life insurance sector remains strong on the back of
favorable demographics such as high economic growth, rising income levels and
domestic savings, increasing mind-share of life insurance within the
financial savings
component, etc. The total penetration of insurance (denoted by premium as
percentage of GDP) has increased from 2.3% in 2001 to 4.4% in 2010. The level
of penetration, particularly in life insurance, tends to rise as the income
levels increase. Rising awareness towards the need of life insurance is also a
key enabler. In
addition to this,
the recent regulatory changes, viz., capping of charges, etc., have only made
ULIPs more cost competitive for the customers. Tightening of regulations has
forced and will continue to drive life insurers towards better expense
management, writing long term quality business, enhancing standards of customer
retention and service.
With a strong
focus on improving persistency, expanding in-force book, driving cost efficiencies,
superior investment performance and customer service, BSLI is well positioned
to meet the challenges and also tap into the opportunities of the life
insurance industry. It is expected to emerge stronger on the back of its wide
distribution franchisee, a successful multi-channel strategy, experienced team,
a proven track record in product innovation, superior investment performance
and a strong brand name.

Amidst short term
challenges, the long term outlook for the mutual fund industry remains
positive, backed by growth drivers such as lower mutual fund penetration,
growing income levels and savings. Mutual fund AUM as a percentage of GDP has
grown in
Currently, only
~5% of household saving is invested in mutual funds. This augurs well for the
industry growth. Moreover, increasing focus of asset management companies on
the alternate assets such as PMS, real estate and offshore and efforts for
increasing retail participation through SIPs, etc., will also contribute to the
growth.
With a strong
focus on increasing equity and alternate assets, enhancing distribution reach

Industry Overview
While there are a
few large wealth management players in
During the
previous financial year 2009-10, SEBI abolished payment of entry load on all
mutual fund schemes w.e.f. 1st August, 2009. Further in 2010-11, IRDA through
new ULIP guidelines capped the charges w.e.f. 1st September, 2010 to
rationalise the ULIPs cost structure. To comply with the guidelines, life
insurance companies
issued new
products with reduced first year commission paid to corporate agents and
brokers on sale of ULIPs. As a result, ULIP sales were impacted across the
industry. During 2010-11, nonequity gross sales of mutual fund industry degrew
by 12% while equity gross sales grew by 7%. Equity cash broking volumes also
de-grew during the year. The margins of the mutual fund and life insurance
distribution players have remained under severe pressure since past two years.
Distribution players are revamping their business model by shifting from
transaction-based business model to advisory-based business model. They are also
focusing on expanding the
basket of services
by adding new offerings, viz., structured products, private equity, real
estate, etc.
Performance Review
To mitigate the
impact of these regulatory changes on earnings and to increase its customer
base, ABMM diversified its offerings and product portfolio. The new product
offerings include investment solutions such as private equity funds, Gold SIP,
alternative investments, structured products, real estate services, etc.
This has helped
ABMM to enhance its revenue from Rs.630.000 millions to Rs.730.000 millions
amidst de-growth in industry volumes across mutual fund, life insurance as well
as equity broking sectors. However, bottom-line was strained due to business
building costs, viz., investment in the people, process and technology –
related infrastructure. Besides, reduction in commission post-new ULIP
guidelines also impacted. ABMM borne one-time exceptional loss of Rs.960.000
millions during the second quarter of 2010-11 on account of certain trades of
its clients. ABMM posted a net loss of Rs.190.000 millions (before one-time
exceptional loss) compared to the net loss of Rs.120.000 millions incurred in
the preceding year.
ABMM is playing an
important role in distribution of financial products of Aditya Birla financial
services businesses. ABMM is the largest corporate agent for Birla Sun Life
Insurance, the largest mutual fund distributor for Birla Sun Life Asset
Management, largest distributor of Aditya Birla Private Equity and the largest
sourcing agent for capital market lending of Aditya Birla Finance.
ABMM has a strong
nation-wide distribution presence through 37 branches and ~14,500 channel
partners serving about 290,000 customers.
Outlook
High savings
growth in
professional
advisors portrays a positive outlook for the wealth management sector in the
longer run.
ABMM’s thrust will
be to provide quality wealth management solutions to its client through product
innovation and technology support. It will also focus on diversification of its

hyper-competition kept tariff under pressure across the industry. Idea’s
average revenue per minute (“ARPM”) has de-grown from Rs.0.47 in the fourth
quarter of 2009-10 to Rs.0.41 in the fourth quarter of 2010-11.
During 2010-11,
revenue of Idea rose by 25% to Rs.154380.000 millions driven by a
strong growth in the total minutes on network while ARPM declined by around 20%
year on year. EBITDA grew by 6% to Rs.38530.000 millions. The decline in
average revenue per minute was compensated by volumeled cost efficiencies.
Depreciation rose by 19% to Rs.23970.000 millions in line with
capacity expansion. Net profit de-grew by 6% to Rs.8990.000 millions.
Idea won 3G
spectrum in 11 service areas, which cover more than 48% of industry’s current
2G revenue and contribute to over 76% of Idea’s existing 2G revenue. Idea made
a total payment of Rs.57690.000 millions, which is lowest
among major operators. In the end of March 2011, Idea had started launching 3G
services. Currently Idea offers 3G services in 19 service areas which includes
provision of 3G services through bilateral roaming arrangement with leading
quality operators for 10 service areas.
Idea’s 2G
operations are competitively very well placed. Idea ranks 1st in four service
areas, viz., Kerala, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh (West);
ranks 2nd in three service areas, namely; Haryana, Punjab and Andhra Pradesh,
and ranks 3rd in Gujarat. Idea won 3G spectrum in all these strategically
important service areas. The incumbency advantage, coupled with the benefit of
900 MHz spectrum in these 8 established
service areas,
gives a combined revenue market share of 23.6% to Idea making it the second
largest operator in these service areas put together. Idea is also emerging as
a strong operator in the service areas of Uttar Pradesh
East, Rajasthan
(Ranks 3rd),
Idea has always
been vigilant in monitoring the quality of its subscriber base. Idea is leader
in terms of ratio of VLR subscriber (active subscribers) to reported
subscribers. As of 30th June 2011, Idea has over 92.5% of reported subscribers
as VLR subscribers, which is highest in the industry. Idea’s VLR subscriber
market share is 14.9% as against a subscriber market share of 11.2%.
The trends
emerging from MNP are clearly distinguishing the strong operators in terms of
customers’ preference for better quality of services and perception of brand
value. Currently, Idea leads the industry in terms of net subscriber additions
from MNP activity, reflecting the brand strength and the market power enjoyed
by the
Company.
Idea incurred a
capex of about Rs.32000.000 millions during the year
(excluding 3G spectrum fees and interest thereon). For 2011-12, the capex
guidance for Idea stands at Rs.40000.000 millions.
With net debt to
EBITDA at 2.7 and net debt to equity at 0.9 as on 31st March, 2011, Idea has a
strong balance sheet. This coupled with strong internal cash accruals will
support its future growth.
Outlook
Prospects of the
Indian telecom industry looks positive in the light of lower tele-density and
lower penetration of value added services. With the roll out of 3G operations, usage
of value added services is expected to increase multi-fold.
Idea will continue
to increase its revenue market share by capitalising on brand !DEA. Leveraging
3G spectrum to augment revenue stream and enrich customer experience will be a
key focus area besides investing in customer service and network quality to
enhance competitiveness. Idea is one of the few companies in the world, which
is able to run high quality telecom services at the world’s lowest price
points, and yet extract stable cash profits. Supported by a quality
subscribers’ base and strong brand, Idea is poised to benefit from long term
sector opportunities, once this overcapacity phase draws to its inevitable
close.
FASHION AND
LIFESTYLE (MADURA FASHION AND LIFESTYLE)
Industry Overview
The branded
apparel market in
The Industry was
impacted by the continuous increase in the prices of key inputs like Cotton,
Polyester and Viscose. Cotton prices increased by 167% over the previous year
while Polyester and Viscose prices rose by 67% and 29% respectively. With
effect from 1st March 2011, a 10% excise duty (effective 6% duty after 40%
abatement) was levied on branded garments. Later on 22nd March, 2011, relief
was provided to the industry by increasing the abatement to 55% taking down the
effective levy of excise duty to 4.5%. The apparel industry raised prices in
the last quarter of 2010-11 to pass on levy of excise duty and rising input
costs.
Performance Review
Madura Fashion and
Lifestyle (“Madura”) is the largest premium branded apparel player in
as the destination
store in the country for super premium and luxury brands with its world class
retail experience. Madura also has a strategic distribution tie up with leading
international brand Esprit.
Independent Brand
Track studies continue to rank the Madura Brands among the Top Apparel Brands
in the country.
Madura sells one
branded apparel every two seconds serving varied fashion and lifestyle needs of
customers through its retail and wholesale channel. Retail channel comprises of
about 950 EBOs spanning across about 1.4 million square feet and contributes
about 45% of the total business revenue. Wholesale channel consists of more
than 1,250 Multi Brand Outlets and departmental stores viz., Shoppers Stop,
Lifestyle, Pantaloons, Central etc.
Investment in product,
brand building and planned expansion of retail channel has supported Madura
Fashion and Lifestyle to significantly outperform the market. Madura achieved
45% year on year growth in revenue supported by 28% growth in branded garments
volumes. Driven by strong sales growth across the brands and channels, Madura
crossed USD 400 million in revenue.
Sales in the
retail channel grew by 50% supported by robust growth in like to like stores
sales and stores expansion. Like to
like stores sales from major brands (Louis Philippe, Van Heusen, Allen Solly
and Peter England) grew by more than 30%. During the year, Madura added about
250 Exclusive Brand Outlets (EBOs) to expand its retail presence.
The business
posted strong turnaround in bottomline in the consecutive second year. While in
2009-10, turnaround was largely driven by cost rationalisation efforts,
turnaround in 2010-11 was led by top-line growth. Madura posted an EBITDA of
Rs.1370.000 millions vis-a-vis loss of Rs.40.000 millions in the previous year.
Return on capital
employed has also improved supported by enhanced earnings and better working
capital management.
Outlook
Going forward, in
the short term, industry may witness moderate growth on account of three
reasons. Firstly, high inflation is putting pressure on discretionary spends.
Secondly, excise duty has been levied on branded garments. And thirdly, prices
of cotton, a key raw material, increased dramatically in the second half of
2010-11. Branded apparel players are expected to further increase the apparel
prices for passing on the rise in cotton prices and levy of excise duty during
the financial year 2011-12. However, industry players will have to be cautious
while increasing the apparel prices amidst high inflation as this may impact
the overall demand and industry’s volume growth going forward. The long term
outlook for domestic apparel industry remains positive on the back of
favourable demographics viz., rising disposable income, burgeoning aspiring
middle class segment, large young population etc. Increasing population shift
towards branded apparel with the rise in income levels will also
be a key growth
driver.
Madura Fashion and
Lifestyle will continue to leverage its brand leadership and pursue channel and
geographic expansion with a target of outperforming the market and competition.
Madura is targeting to open about 200 stores during 2011-12 to tap domestic
demand. Product innovation, retail excellence and improving service levels will
be the key focus areas for Madura in the direction of differentiating itself
from the competition. Mitigating impact of rise in costs through appropriate
pricing and product strategy will also be a key focus area.
IT — ITES (ADITYA

The global
economic downturn of the past years has had a prolonged effect on GDP growth
and employment in the developed markets. There is still uncertainty in the
sustainability of growth in the
thereby evolving
from playing tactical vendor role to being of strategic benefit to clients.
Performance Review
With a track
record of over 29 years, Aditya Birla Minacs is a leading business solutions
company that partners with global corporations in the manufacturing, retail,
telecom, technology, media and entertainment, banking, insurance, healthcare and
public sectors. Leveraging its years of process, domain and technology
expertise, Aditya Birla Minacs delivers superior business value to clients
through its seamless Customer Lifecycle,
Marketing, Finance and Accounting, Procurement and IT solutions and
services.
Aditya Birla
Minacs ranks among the top 10 Indian ITeS companies by revenue size. Having
global delivery capabilities across the
Revenue grew year
on year by 11% to Rs.16920.000 millions (USD 375 million)
driven by a strong order book. Growth picked up in the second half of the year
with the conversion of total contract value (“TCV”) sold. Aditya Birla Minacs
sold TCV of more than USD 775 million during 2010-11 vis-à-vis USD 600 million
sold in 2009-10. About 55% of the TCV sold in 2010-11 is on account of new
business and the balance is renewal business. Aditya Birla Minacs won 21 new
clients during the year. More than 4,000 employees were added to support the
growth.
The
EBITDA grew year
on year by 75% to Rs.1830.000 millions. EBITDA margin improved from 7% to 11%.
The business posted a net profit of Rs.740.000 millions vis-à-vis a net loss of
Rs.130.000 millions last year.
The business
achieved significant improvement in the profitability for the second
consecutive year. While in 2009-10, improvement was largely driven by cost
rationalisation measures. in 2010-11, revenue growth coupled with a
rationalised cost structure and savings in interest contributed to the
improvement in profitability.
In the direction
of augmenting non-voice capabilities in the ITeS business, Aditya Birla Minacs acquired
Bureau of Collection Recovery (“BCR”), a leading US based accounts receivables
management company in June 2010. BCR has 25 years of domain expertise in the
RESTRUCTURING OF
THE IT-ITES BUSINESS
In order to
achieve utmost synergy and efficiency of operations and management, the ITeS
subsidiary - Aditya Birla Minacs Worldwide Limited has filed a Composite Scheme
of Amalgamation, amongst itself and the IT subsidiaries - Aditya Birla Minacs
IT Services Limited and Aditya Birla Minacs Technologies Limited, which is
currently pending at Hon’ble High Court at Karnataka.
Outlook
Global IT-ITeS spending
will benefit from the ongoing recovery in developed economies while emerging
economies are beginning to join the outsourcing market. Increased outsourcing,
even in low cost economies, is a testimony that clients prefer to outsource
what is not core, i.e., not vital to their business and are looking at vendors
for their specialised domain and process expertise - not just for cost
benefits. Demand for ‘transformative’ value propositions that go beyond merely
lower-cost propositions are on a rise. Long term outlook for the IT-ITeS sector
continues to remain positive. Key factors that will fuel growth of IT-ITeS
sector globally are –
·
Tight fiscal and monetary conditions in the medium
term are causing enterprises to look at ways to increasing agility and resource
productivity
·
Inherent need of clients to rationalise costs and
become “asset-light”
·
Increased focus on providing high end services and
moving up the value chain as clients look to outsource more and more of what
they earlier considered “core”.
Aditya Birla
Minacs will continue to exceed customers’ expectations with a sharp and clear
focus on excellence in execution. It continues to lay thrust on achieving
profitable growth by building a robust sales pipeline, improving capacity
utilisation and continuous cost optimisation. Its global footprint, its
capabilities in multiple industry verticals, its culturally diverse and
knowledgeable workforce, and its partnership model that works to drive its
clients’ business results, are strategic assets which it will leverage in the
emerging global market.
MANUFACTURING
BUSINESSES
Aditya Birla Nuvo
has a strong market positioning across its manufacturing businesses viz.,
Carbon Black, Agri-business, Insulators, Rayon and Textiles. All the
manufacturing businesses are among the leaders in their respective sectors in
terms of size as well as profitability. Aditya Birla Nuvo is:
·
The second largest producer of Carbon Black in
·
·
The second largest producer and largest exporter of
Viscose Filament Yarn in
·
Among the best energy efficient Fertiliser plants
in
·
The largest Linen Yarn and Linen Fabric
manufacturer in
They have an
outstanding track record of consistent generation of strong cash flows as well
as superior operating margins (“OPM”) and return on average capital employed (“ROACE”).
Cash flows generated by these manufacturing businesses have historically
provided cushion to Aditya Birla Nuvo for meeting the funding requirements of
services businesses. At the same time, ABNL continued to invest in the capacity
expansion of the manufacturing businesses to tap growth opportunities across
the sectors.
Having a combined
revenue size of more than USD 1 billion, the manufacturing businesses posted
the highest ever EBITDA in 2010-11 at Rs.7810.000 millions vis-à-vis
Rs.7410.000 millions earned in the previous year.
CARBON BLACK
(HI-TECH CARBON)
Industry Overview
Carbon Black is a
black powder which is used to provide tensile strength and abrasion resistance
to rubber. Carbon Black is used in the tyre industry as well as in the non-tyre
sector as reinforcing filler in rubber products and in the printing inks and
paints industry. Carbon Black constitutes ~28% of tyre by weight. The demand
for carbon black is largely linked to
the demand of the auto and tyre sector. The tyre industry accounts for about
70% of carbon black demand in
2011 while Hi-Tech
Carbon (“HTC”), the carbon black business of ABNL, expanded its capacity by
84,000 MTPA in May 2010 through
Performance Review
Hi-Tech Carbon,
the second largest manufacturer in
HTC commissioned
its third plant with a capacity of 84,000 MT at Patalganga in May 2010 taking
the total Carbon Black production capacity from 230,000 MTPA to 314,000 MTPA. A
23 MW power plant was set up at Patalganga and a 10 MW power plant at Renukoot
taking total power plant installed capacity from 40 MW to 73 MW.
EBITDA grew from
Rs.2530.000 millions to Rs.2580.000 millions supported by higher carbon black
volumes and rise in energy sales. Revenue from sale of power and steam grew
from Rs.730.000 millions to Rs.800.000 millions. Growth in profitability during
2010-11 was partly constrained by stabilisation costs of recently expanded
capacity. Besides, during part of the previous year 2009-10, business had
benefited from low cost inventory. HTC posted return on average capital
employed (“ROACE”) at 20% vis-à-vis 27% in the previous year. Capital employed
increased mainly due to rise in working capital and fixed assets on account of
expanded capacity which is now operating at full capacity.
Hi-Tech Carbon is
planning to augment its capacity further by 85,000 MTPA at Patalganga in the
second phase besides 85,000 MTPA expansion in the southern
Outlook
The domestic tyre
demand is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10-12% over 2010-11 to 2015-16.
Domestic tyre production is expected to get a boost from the high OEM and
replacement demand from the tyre and automobile industry. Furthermore, a number
of international car makers are increasingly focusing on the Indian automobile
industry and
ramping up investment. In view of this, a number of tyre manufacturers have
line up capacity expansion plan in the near future, which will benefit the
domestic carbon black industry.
With its planned
170,000 MT capacity expansion, Hi-tech Carbon is well positioned to tap the
demand growth and improve its market share.
AGRI-BUSINESS
(INDO-GULF FERTILISERS)
Industry Overview
Agriculture sector
grew by a strong 6.6% during 2010-11, aided by the low base in 2009-10 due to
poor monsoons. This has given a good boost to the demand for agri inputs –
fertilisers, seeds and agrochemicals. Urea accounted for 53% of total
fertilisers demand in
fertilisers has
been well received by all the stakeholders and has ensured better availability
of these fertilisers. The industry is now awaiting the extension of this NBS
scheme to Urea. The Government is laying thrust on development of customised
fertilisers and coated / fortified fertilisers. As a first step the limit on
production
of coated /
fortified fertilisers has been increased from 20% to 35% w.e.f. 11th January
2011. This has enabled the industry to increase the volumes of valued added
products.
Performance Review
Indo Gulf
Fertilisers (“IGF”), the agri-business of ABNL, manufactures urea and markets
agricultural seeds and agrochemicals to provide complete agri solutions to
farmers. IGF is among the top 10 fertilisers manufacturer in
Revenue grew by
22% to Rs.12440.000 millions led by increase in realisation (subsidy) and
higher agriinput sales. Rise in feed and fuel (natural gas) prices resulted in
higher subsidies. Revenue from agri-input sales grew from Rs.530.000 millions
to Rs.790.000 millions. EBITDA grew by 13% to Rs.1760.000 millions driven by
higher agri-input sales. IGF is operating at a robust ROACE of 39% up from 31%
in the previous year.
‘Birla Shaktiman’
Urea continues to maintain its leadership position among the private players in
the target markets of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand and West Bengal with a
market share between 10%-20% IGF has increased the production of ‘Neem coated’
urea from 219,621 tons to 260,785 tons, the maximum allowable as per the
Government policy. Neem coated urea fetches higher realisation by about 5%.
‘Birla Shaktiman’
has been repositioned as a ‘total agri solutions provider’, offering a full
range of agri- inputs from sowing to harvesting. Sales of the hybrid seeds, the
agrochemicals and micro nutrients have received encouraging response from
farmers, reflecting the strength of IGF’s brand equity and channel reach. IGF
was awarded the ‘Agriculture Today Leadership Award’ for the pioneering efforts
in the application of six sigma
principles in
agricultural fields.
Outlook
The per hectare
consumption of fertilisers in nutrient terms has increased from 112 Kg. In
2006-07 to 135 Kg. in 2009-10 but it is still lower as compared to other
countries like
IGF is evaluating
de-bottlenecking and revamping of existing ammonia and urea plants for reducing
the energy consumption and increasing the production capacity. It is also
evaluating viability of setting up a manufacturing facility for producing the
customised fertilisers. IGF has a unique geographical advantage of being based
in the Indo-gangetic plains. With a strong brand equity and market reach, it is
well positioned to capture an increasing share of this growing market.
The Government is
planning to bring urea under Nutrient based subsidy policy. This coupled with
proposal to lift the ceiling on production of neem coated urea (currently
capped at 35% of total production) will benefit the business.
TEXTILES (JAYA
SHREE TEXTILES)
Industry Overview
Domestic textiles
industry posted encouraging performance during the year in terms of volume
growth and profitability. The growth was driven by increased demand from
overseas buyers with Chinese imports becoming more expensive coupled with
robust demand in the domestic apparel market. Rising income and positive
consumer sentiments led to robust demand in the domestic market. Sourcing by
overseas players is shifting to
the rise in inputs
costs to the customers.
Performance Review
Jaya Shree
Textiles (“JST”) is the largest manufacturer of linen yarn and linen fabric in
JST posted its
highest ever revenue and EBITDA during the year led by volume growth in the
linen segment and improved realisation in both linen and wool segments. Its
efforts for increasing awareness about linen in the domestic market and
creating a wide distribution channel of whole sellers, multi brand outlets and
EBOs are yielding results. Its Linen fabric sales volume grew by 45% and Linen
yarn by 28%. Revenue of linen segment grew by 40% to Rs.3010.000 millions while
wool segment revenue grew by 31% to Rs.4730.000 millions. Increase in input
costs was passed on to reflect in higher realisation in both the segments.
EBITDA soared by
48% from Rs.690.000 millions to Rs.1030.000 millions driven by improved
realisation and volume growth. ROACE improved considerably to 34% driven by
improved earnings and better working capital management.
Eight EBOs of Linen
Fabric were rolled out under the buy and sell mode without incurring any
capital expenditure taking such stores count to a total of 40.
Outlook
The outlook for
the textiles business remains positive. Buoyancy in the domestic market will
continue to be driven by factors like rising disposable income levels and
gaining popularity of linen as a style and comfort fabric.
JST will continue
to focus on more profitable retail segment, enriched product mix, improved
supply chain management and judicious working capital management for earnings
enhancement. Addition of more exclusive showrooms for Linen Fabric is on cards.
RAYON (INDIAN
RAYON)
Industry Overview
Indian Rayon, a
unit of ABNL, manufactures and sells viscose filament yarn, caustic soda and
allied chemicals. Viscose filament yarn (“VFY”) is a manmade natural filament
yarn having comfort of cotton and luster of silk. It is used in georgette and
crepe saris, home textiles, embroidery etc. Domestic consumption of VFY
remained flat at
56,364 MT in 2010-11.
Domestic VFY production declined by 4% to 40,890 MT while imports increased by
2%. VFY exports grew by 2% to 5466 MT. Century Textiles and Industries Limited
and Indian Rayon are leading domestic VFY manufacturers having production share
of 44% and 38% respectively. During 2010-11, VFY players were impacted by a
sharp rise in prices of wood pulp, a key raw material. Imported rayon grade
wood-pulp prices increased from USD 1,600 per MT in April 2010 to USD 3,000 per
MT in April 2011. However, wood pulp prices are gradually coming down from the
peak. VFY prices were increased by the industry players with a time lag to pass
on the rise in input cost.
Caustic Soda is a
versatile alkali. Its main uses are in the manufacture of pulp and paper,
alumina, soaps and detergents, petroleum products and chemical production.
Other applications include water treatment, food, textiles, metal processing,
mining, glass making etc. Domestic caustic soda demand grew during the year on
account of better off-take from Alumina, Paper and Textiles segments.
Performance Review
Revenue from the
VFY segment of Indian Rayon grew by 4% to Rs.3840.000 millions. VFY realization
increased by 10% to Rs.246 per kg while VFY sales volumes de-grew by 6% to
15,592
EBITDA de-grew
from Rs.1550.000 millions to Rs.1090.0000 millions.

VFY capacity expansion, Indian Rayon is focusing on technology up-gradation to
improve product quality and enhance product range. This will help to cater to
premium segments and to improve realisation. Enhanced product range and improvement
in quality will also help to broaden customer’s base. With the planned caustic
soda capacity expansion, Indian Rayon is well positioned to tap growth in
caustic soda demand.
INSULATORS (ADITYA
BIRLA INSULATORS)
Industry Overview
Insulators are
used in power generation, transmission and distribution and by original
equipment manufacturers. The growth of insulators industry is linked to the
growth of the power sector. The power sector added about 12,000 MW of generation capacity in 2010-11.
This is 56% of the targeted capacity addition in 2010-11 and 27% higher than
capacity added in the previous year. The power sector also added about 15,000
circuit kms of transmission line. This is 82% of the targeted addition and more
than three times of lines added in the previous year. Domestic insulators

EBITDA rose by 17%
from Rs.1160.000 millions to Rs.1350.000 millions. Higher volumes and improved
yield was
partly set off by
increase in input and fuel costs. Aditya Birla Insulators is operating at a
robust ROACE of 35%.
Aditya Birla
Insulators is planning to expand its capacity by 2,000 MW through
de-bottlenecking at a cost of Rs.190.000 millions at Halol Plant.

INDIAN CORPORATES WELCOME
RBI'S DRAFT NORMS ON BANKING LICENCES
31 August 2011
MUMBAI, Aug 31Asia Pulse - Welcoming the Indian Reserve
Bank's draft guidelines on granting new bank linceces, corporates and analysts
on Monday said the norms would pave the way for entry of business houses into
the banking space.
"We welcome the draft banking guidelines. Clearly, based
on eligibility criteria, Aditya Birla Nuvo, which enjoys a significant presence
across several key financial services businesses, would fit into the
criteria," Aditya Birla Nuvo Chief Financial Officer Sushil Agarwal said.
Terming the paper as a well-thought out piece, analysts said
the draft incorporates a lot from the consultative process held after the
discussion paper floated by the RBI in August, 2010.
"Overall, this is a good set of guidelines. They give a
clear set of directions about the entry of corporates which is welcome,"
consultancy firm Ernst and Young's Director Viren Mehta said.
"The draft guidelines are definitely in line with the
discussion paper and views expressed subsequently also have been taken into
consideration," G S Sundararajan, managing director of finance company
Shriram Capital, said.
He said the group will be analysing the details and looking
if it can come up with a profitable model. The company's interest in banking
continues, Sundararajan added.
"The draft guidelines contain a strong focus on greater
financial inclusion, efficient corporate governance, adequate controls on
exposure to group companies, and time-bound milestones for listing. We now look
forward to the release of the final guidelines over the next few months,"
Sam Ghosh, CEO, Reliance Capital, said.
"Our group will be keen to explore a banking licence.
Our long experience of two decades provides us with the necessary understanding
and strength in the financial services domain," diversified conglomerate
Mahindra and Mahindra's President (Finance, Legal and Financial Services) Uday
Phadke said.
"What is important is that they have chosen to create a
level-playing field, there is nothing there which will offend an existing
