INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services and software workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth in 2011 slowed because of persistently high inflation and interest rates and little progress on economic reforms. High international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures contributing to a higher fiscal deficit, and a worsening current account deficit. Little economic reform took place in 2011 largely due to corruption scandals that have slowed legislative work. India's medium-term growth outlook is positive due to a young population and corresponding low dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates, and increasing integration into the global economy. India has many long-term challenges that it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural employment opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education, and accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

PRESS RELEASE:

P AND G PLANS TO INVEST RS 15400.000 MILLIONS IN HOME PRODUCTS ARM

10.10.2012

MUMBAI: Procter and Gamble, the world's largest consumer goods firm, plans to invest Rs 15400.000 Millions in its unlisted arm P and G Home Products, its largest investment since it entered the Indian market two decades ago, indicating its commitment to challenge the domination of Hindustan Unilever in Asia's third-largest economy.

In a board meeting held last month, P and G Home Products decided to increase its authorised share capital by issuing an additional 2 crore shares of 10 each at a premium of Rs 760 to its parent company.

Confirming the fund infusion into the 100%-owned subsidiary that makes Ariel, Tide and Pantene, a P and G spokeswoman said the money will go into supporting ongoing business activity, fund capital expansions for P and G's operations and meet working capital needs in India.

"The capital limit increase in Procter and Gamble Home Products is in line with P and G's focus on India as a key developing market, and one that the parent company continues to invest behind. P and G India has been achieving double-digit growth consistently in the last few years and is one of P and G's fastest growing markets globally," said the spokeswoman.

The Cincinnati US-headquartered company has struggled to revive sluggish sales in developed markets while emerging countries have gradually climbed to a $32-billion business for the company, generating 38% of sales and 44% of volume.

India is still one of the smallest markets for P and G with just $1-billion sales across three subsidiaries - Procter and Gamble Health and Hygiene, which markets feminine hygiene brand Whisper and Vicks anti-cold balm; Gillette India, a maker of razors and other shaving products; and Procter and Gamble Home Products, best-known as the maker of Ariel and Tide detergent.

Analysts feel that P and G's fresh investments could be disruptive for key rivals, especially Hindustan Unilever that share retail shelves in detergents, skin and hair care products, if P and G tries to increase market shares by cutting prices.

"P and G has such a strategy every three to four years, the last being in 2008-09 when a price war was seen in detergents category. So, we expect investments to reflect in advertising as well as price-war by next year," said Anand Shah, senior analyst at Elara Capital.

The parent company isn't downplaying India's growth prospects either. "We're focused on our top 10 developing markets where growth prospects are highest, including the important 'BRIC' markets.

Among BRIC, the Indian business recorded a compounded of 27% compounded growth between 2002 and 2012, the highest among the BRICs, followed by Russia at 25, and China and Brazil at 23 and 17% respectively.

Last year, the US-based consumer goods maker approved an investment plan of over Rs 900 crore in its unlisted arm - Procter and Gamble Home Products. Most of those funds were to power P and G's 'Project 2-3-4', which is aimed at doubling the number of Indians who use its products, trebling per capita spending by Indians on its products and quadrupling net sales of its India operations by 2015.

A substantial part of this has gone into sprucing up its existing multi-product manufacturing facility at Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh. In addition, the company is also planning to set up another plant in Hyderabad in line with its global mandate to set up over 20 production centres and acquire one billion new consumers in emerging markets by 2015.
