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.

NOTES

 

Registered office has been shifted from B-1/1, Maharashtra Industrial Corporation Limited, MIDC, Murbad District, Thane-421401, Maharashtra, India to the present address w.e.f. 19.04.2011.

 

 

PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY

 

During 2011, sales were lower by 7% year on year. Some of the major factors were lower than anticipated sales increase of Beverage closures, as BCDS and Hot fill volumes of certain large franchisees of Coca-Cola did not materialize. Further, the Company also faced delays in some of the new projects such as Super Shorty and SK 40 closures as the Customers have delayed implementation at their end. The Cost of materials in 2011 had increased substantially and this had an adverse impact on their margins which were already under severe strain due to price war by the competition in the Closure industry. There was improvement in Plant efficiency and better control over manufacturing overheads which helped in mitigating some of the impact of the volumes and margins drop.

 

The above factors and the exchange loss due to adverse exchange rates and increase in Administrative expenses have resulted in the company ending with a loss for the year.

 

During the year, Bericap Holding GmbH, Germany-the company’s holding company further increased its contribution to the equity share capital by remitting Rs 128,850,000 for the same.

 

The company has successfully implemented SAP ERP system in 2011 which would lead to better System and Controls and will also help improve all round efficiency in the years to come.

 

 

FUTURE PROSPECTS

 

The outlook for 2012 is looking good with the growth of the Indian economy and their Company already in advanced stages in implementing new projects which is expected to further increase beverages and specialty closure sales. The new projects in 2012 include closures for Pepsi Aquafina, Castrol India for their scooter engine oil, Super Shorty for Coke. They are trying to revive relationship with Coke Franchisees for their existing BCDS and Hot fill Closures. Efforts are also being made to further strengthen our relationship with Parle Beverages by providing closure application for their Frooti Brand.

 

The company has also decided to increase its sales in the Edible and Lubricating Oil Segment as also in the Pharma medicines Segment.

 

The company has also decided to implement Quality Management System and intends to be ISO 9001:2008 certified by end of 2011.

 

However, on the negative side, due to the increase in competition and rise input costs their margins will be under constant pressure. It is their intention to counter this by increasing the company’s market share with customers who will be able to deliver a higher margin and increase focus on Market penetration and diversification.
