LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

Company History:

 

Subject is a Calcutta-based company. Manufactures industrial packaging, barrels and drums, LPG cylinders, greases and lubricants, leather chemicals, functional additives and marine freight containers. It also undertakes tea exports and trading, travel, tours, and cargo and engineering services such as turnkey projects, energy-audit and consultancy and freight-container repairs. It is the largest manufacturer of steel barrels in India. It has a tie-up with Fuchs Petrolub, Switzerland, to market industrial and automotive lubricants. The company has a joint venture with IOC and NYCO, France, to produce aviation grade synthetic/semi synthetic lubricants and grease for defence services.It has a tie-up with Cochin Refineries for the manufacture of polybutenes. Balmer Lawrie diversified into the manufacture of plastic containers and allied products, leather tanning and production of leather chemicals. During 1998-99, the company business of blending and packaging of speciality tea was successfully started with the commissioning of the plant at bedford in May, 1999. Also the plant of Avi-Oil India at Piyala, Faridabad, commenced production of aviation lubricants during the year. The plant of AVI-Oil India Limited, a joint venture company, at Piyala, Faridabad, was commissioned with effect from 1 August, 1999. The company had executed the export order for a speciality oil consignment. The company had upgraded the Tea factory at Kolkata to cater to the growing value added business. As the government has decided to disinvest 61.8% of holding in IBP Company Limited (erstwhile holding company of Balmer Lawrie and company Limited), to facilitate such disinvestment, a new company was formed viz Balmer Lawrie Investments Limited w.e.f October, 2001.

 

Overview

 

The Company recorded significant achievements in the year 2010–11, some of which are as follows:

 

  • The Company recorded its highest ever Turnover with net sales at Rs. 20500 millions as against Rs. 16730 millions in 2009-10, marking an increase of 23% over the previous year.

 

  • Profit Before Tax increased from Rs. 1530 millions in 2009-10 to Rs. 1810 millions in 2010-11, an increase of more than 18% over the previous year.

Report on Subsidiary

 

Balmer Lawrie (UK) Limited

 

Balmer Lawrie (UK) Limited (‘BLUK’) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company incorporated in the U.K. BLUK was earlier engaged in Leasing and Hiring of Marine Freight Containers and Tea Warehousing, Blending and Packaging. After exiting these two businesses, the company utilized the proceeds to fund other business opportunities.

 

BLUK has to date invested approximately US $ 1.32 million [including US$ 0.14 million in 2010-11], equivalent to Indonesian Rupiah12.30 billion, representing 50% of the paid up equity share capital of the joint venture company, PT. Balmer Lawrie Indonesia (PTBLI), formed to manufacture and market lubricating greases and other lubricants in Indonesia.

 

PTBLI’s plant is in advanced stage of completion and is expected to be commissioned by September 2011.

 

Report on Joint Ventures

 

AVI-OIL India Private Limited (AVI-OIL)

 

During 2010-11 Avi-Oil has recorded lower sales of Rs. 340 millions as against Rs. 400 millions achieved in the previous year. The decline has been due to delay in the renewal of the rate contract with its major customer and consequent lower off-take.

 

Avi-Oil participated in the International Aerospace Exposition “AERO INDIA 2011” at Bengaluru, projecting the theme of ‘Self-Reliance’. The contribution of Avi-Oil towards indigenisation of aerolubes was well appreciated by the visitors.

 

During the year, Avi-Oil continued to maintain its registrations with Director General Aeronautical Quality Assurance, Director General of Civil Aviation and other registrations. An audit of Avi-Oil’s production, quality assurance and documentation were conducted by Nyco, France. To augment its production facilities, Avi-Oil effected several improvements in its blending and filling operations and launched a novel pack design for certain aerolubes after validation by the concerned customers / authorities. Exports of esters to Nyco continued and   efforts were initiated to develop certain industrial speciality products based on the high quality esters.

 

Balmer Lawrie-Van Leer Limited (BLVL)

 

BLVL’s net sales, inclusive of other income increased to Rs. 1776.100 millions in 2010-11 from Rs. 1572.700 millions in the previous year. The demand for Drum Closures both in the local and export market continued to be buoyant throughout the year and business improved significantly with net sales up by about 11% compared to the previous year. In Plastic Containers sales volume of Valerex 20 range increased by 9% over the previous year.

 

During the year 2010-11, the Profit Before Tax of BLVL increased to Rs. 100.500 millions from Rs. 76.700 millions in 2009-10, an increase of 31%.

 

During the current financial year ICRA Limited upgraded BLVL’s Short term rating from A2 to A2+ and Long term rating from LBBB+ to LA – reflecting an improvement of its financial health.

 

Transafe Services Limited (TSL)

 

TSL achieved a turnover of Rs. 764.000 millions during 2010-11— a fall of around 7% compared to the turnover of Rs. 824.700 millions during the previous year – and recorded loss (before tax) of Rs. 162.000 millions. Performance of TSL during 2010-11 was adversely affected due to severe fund crunch faced during major part of the year. While TSL’s turnover was broadly in line with the projections made for the year, it recorded considerably higher loss largely on account of making provision against old un-reconciled debtors. TSL achieved EBIDTA [Earnings Before Interest, Depreciation, Tax and Amortization] of Rs. 151.000 millions as compared to Rs. -109.000 millions in the previous year.

 

The business activities of TSL include Leasing of freight containers, Logistics services including Warehousing operations, manufacture of custom-designed freight containers, Bunk Houses and other container derivatives. It is

expected that TSL would achieve improved performance during 2011-12.

 

A scheme for restructuring the debts of TSL under the Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) mechanism was approved in October 2010. In terms of the CDR scheme, the Company has infused Rs. 78.000 millions into TSL -- Rs. 60.000 millions towards 60,00,000 Cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares [CRPS] of Rs. 10 each for cash at par and the balance Rs. 18.000 millions as unsecured loan, which would bear interest at the rate of 8.5% per annum till March 2015 and 9.5% thereafter. The unsecured loan of Rs. 73.000 millions earlier provided by the Company in 2009 to TSL, has also been converted in to 73,00,000 CRPS of Rs. 10 each at par.

 

Further to the criminal complaint filed by TSL against  Shri Gopal Krishna Mukerjea, former Managing Director and CEO of TSL (accused no.1), Shri Prithwi Manas Mitra , former Senior Vice President (Finance) of TSL (accused no.2) and certain other executives of TSL, it is known that the accused no.1 and 2 were arrested on 3rd December, 2010 and placed under  judicial custody pending investigations. It is gathered that they were released on bail on 3rd March 2011. Further action by the state in the matter is awaited.

 

The Company, along with the other shareholder in TSL – Balmer Lawirie-Van Leer Limited (BLVL) - has filed a civil suit against the erstwhile majority shareholders represented by ICICI Ventures, before the Calcutta High Court on 12th May 2011, seeking relief inter alia to the effect that the sale of shares in TSL to the Company and BLVL by ICICI Ventures is void entailing consequent restoration of all advantages derived by each party from the void contract.

 

Balmer Lawrie (UAE) LLC (BLUAE)

 

Despite the continuing effects of the global recessionary conditions, difficult local market conditions including intensified competition and pressure on product pricing, BLUAE turned in excellent results during the year 2010. Prices of main raw materials, viz. CR steel, Tinplate and HDPE showed softening trend internationally for most part of the year; with HDPE prices staging a mid-year reversal.

 

BLUAE is bracing itself to face the challenges and maintain its pre-eminent position in the market. The company continues to upgrade its facilities and systems to achieve process, product and technological improvements and further enhance service levels with the aim of strengthening its position as the most preferred vendor to customers in the region, maintaining the highest level of business ethics and dependability.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

The Company during the financial year 2010-11 would be better evaluated/understood with a brief survey of the macroeconomic scenario both within and outside the country. Available statistics indicate that the global economy staged a smart recovery in 2010 with the output rising by 5% reversing the decline of 0.6% in 2009. Nevertheless,

uncertainty still persists particularly in Europe where some of the countries are facing difficult fiscal situation  arising out of debt crisis. Also, the recovery of the US economy has continued to be slow and tentative. The developments in Japan, which was beset by a severe earthquake, a devastating tsunami and a consequential nuclear accident, have intensified the world’s economic problems.

 

Even with the ongoing ripple effects of the global crises – post economic recession of 2008-09 – and the high rate of inflation experienced during the last one year, the economic outlook in India still portends to be encouraging. After growing at 8% in 2009-10, the Indian economy picked up further momentum recording GDP growth rate of 8.5% during 2010-11.

 

The Company, Balmer Lawrie and Company Limited is a multi-product and multi-location Company engaged in both manufacturing and service businesses focused on increasing shareholder value. The business of the Company consists of eight Strategic Business Units (SBUs), which are being discussed separately herein below:

 

INDUSTRIAL PACKAGING [SBU-IP]

 

Industry Structure and developments

 

SBU-IP offers an extensive range of 165 to 210 liter capacity mild steel barrels from its six manufacturing units spread across the country to serve diverse applications in the Petroleum, Chemicals and Food industries. The Company is the largest manufacturer of steel barrels in the country.

 

The Industrial Packaging Industry is characterized by surplus capacities and a large number of manufacturers, leading to depressed margins. The year 2010-11, witnessed a significant growth of the market enabling the SBU to record its highest ever volume of sales and also contributed to the substantially higher profits vis-ŕ-vis 2009-10. Cost of Cold rolled steel, which is the main material input for the SBU, rose in the first quarter, was thereafter stable for the better part of the year, picking-up once again towards the latter part of the last quarter.

 

In 2010-11, the SBU commissioned a new barrel manufacturing plant at Chittoor in Andhra Pradesh to provide better service for the local fruit industry. The SBU continues to hold its lead position in terms of market share.

 

Outlook

 

Indicative trends point to an equally good, if not better demand in 2011-12. Based on the country achieving its targeted GDP growth, the SBU expects its volume to grow further and market share to remain stable in 2011-12.

 

GREASES and LUBRICANTS [SBU-G and L]

 

Industry Structure and developments

 

The size of the lubricant industry is estimated to have grown to about 1.5 million tons in 2010-11 valued at about Rs.120000 millions. Automotive applications account for around 65% of the total lubricant market and the balance would mainly consist of industrial and institutional sectors. The per capita consumption of lubricants in India is still low compared to the developed countries and thus offers more scope for the lubricant industry to grow. Currently, India is the sixth largest market in the world and the third largest in Asia after China and Japan.

 

The lubricant industry in India is dominated by the PSU Oil Companies and MNCs who together have a market share of over 75%, with several other large, medium and small-scale players making up the rest. Competition is fierce but the Company has the potential to expand the lubricant business on account of its strength in both industrial and automotive sectors. The market remains highly price sensitive.

 

Despite these challenges, in the long-term the overall outlook for the automotive lubricant business appears to be good due to growing Indian economy and increased purchasing power of the consumers.

 

Outlook

 

The lubricant industry has a good growth orientation against the economic backdrop. From a strategic perspective, the Company proposes to introduce more and more value-added speciality products for niche markets particularly for the steel and the automobile sectors. Also on the anvil are plans to manufacture ecofriendly / biodegradable lubricants in the Indian market. Currently, the Indian market has only a negligible presence in these types of lubricants.

 

LOGISTICS SERVICES (SBU-LS)

 

Industry Structure and Developments

 

Logistics Industry is a sunrise industry which is forecast to grow rapidly at a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of approximately 9%. Available data indicates that the industry turnover lies somewhere in the region of $ 80 billion - $ 100 billion. Much of the industry is fragmented with a mere 10% under the control of the organized sector. The logistics cost in India is estimated at around 13% to 14% of the GDP as against 9% to 10% in the industrialized nations. Higher logistics cost together with the requirement of progressively larger investments in the sector are twin factors which would provide impetus for the growth of the organized sector. One other driver of growth would be the benefits accruing from the long awaited implementation of GST.

 

Outlook

 

Enhanced focus on marketing efforts, especially directed at the Private Sector, has been initiated by the SBU. The SBU expects to show growth both in the top line and bottom line and is exploring possibilities of expanding its business coverage through the opening of new branches in various cities and towns.

 

TOURS and TRAVEL [SBU-TandT]

 

Industry Structure and Developments

 

The Aviation sector is amongst the fastest growing sectors in India driven by a massive boom in Tourism and  increasing levels of disposable incomes. After a drop in traffic growth in the previous year, the industry saw a growth in excess of 15% making India the 9th largest aviation market in the world. Domestic Aairlines carried more than 50 million passengers during the year 2010- 11 and given the strong market fundamentals, it is expected that the civil aviation market will register more than 15% CAGR in the next 2-3 years.

 

The SBU is one of the largest travel agencies in the country affiliated to the International Air Transport Association (IATA) which is currently estimated to have more than 2600 members in India. In addition to IATA approved travel agents, there are approximately 5500 non-IATA travel agents functioning in the country.

 

During 2010-11, the Government of India lifted the austerity measures – restricting travel in the executive class in the Domestic sector and the business class in the International sector for employees working in the Government departments and PSUs. This had a positive impact on the business as the SBU’s main customers are Government Departments and PSUs. On the downside, there was no change in the status of ‘zero’ commission norm applied by the European carriers despite advisory from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to all the airlines to restore commission payable to Travel Agents.

 

A welcome development during 2010-11 was Lufthansa giving an outstanding performance award to the SBU for

its efficiency and effectiveness in functioning as an agency of the travel industry.

 

Outlook

 

Given the strong market fundamentals, increase in capacity in the domestic Airlines, particularly LCCs and Open Sky policy, it is expected that the civil aviation market would continue to grow in the near term. Domestic and International travel business is poised to grow with higher disposable income in the hands of the people.

 

LOGISTICS INFRASTRUCTURE [SBU-LI]

 

Industry Structure and Development

 

The Logistics container market consists of two major segments viz., (a) Container Freight Station (CFS) and (b) Inland Container Depot [ICD]. The CFSs represent the fastest growing segment in the Logistics container Industry. Increasing international trade and rising containerization in India have fuelled the growth. The CFSs function as extension of the port and helps in decongesting the ports. They provide facilities for storage of containers, customs clearance, aggregation and segregation of EXIM Cargo and transportation to and from ports, which are the gateway to international trade.

 

In the last five years, container traffic in Indian Ports has grown at a CAGR of over 12%. However, the total containerized traffic, at major ports in 2010-11, was only 20% of the tonnage handled at these ports. This is quite low compared with statistics pertaining to world sea trade which indicate that nearly 50% thereof is containerized. The total containerized traffic currently in India lies in the range of 8.75 million TEUs per annum and the market size of Indian Container logistics is valued at close to ’75 billion.

 

The SBU-LI specializes in operating CFSs and Warehousing and Distribution. Currently, the 3 CFSs of the Company are at Nava Sheva-Navi - Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata. Incidentally, these three ports account for nearly 80% of the total container traffic in India. Warehousing and Distribution too has been a traditional activity of the Company and the SBU operates warehousing facilities at Kolkata and Coimbatore.

 

Outlook

 

With the continued growth in the EXIM trade, the SBU expects to accomplish further growth in the coming years. This would be spurred by the increase in handling capacity which is nearing completion at Kolkata and Chennai CFSs. However, competitive pressures would be expected to increase and this is expected to affect margins.

 

PERFORMANCE CHEMICALS [SBU-PC]

 

Industry Structure and Developments

 

Globally Leather Trade is valued at US $ 145 Billion and is expected to grow at the rate of 6% per annum to reach

US $ 245 billion by 2020. India’s export of Leather and Leather articles which is currently at US $ 3.7 Billion is expected to grow to a level of US $ 9.8 Billion by the year 2020.

 

India is the second largest manufacturer of footwear, after China, producing 16% of global output.

 

Footwear segment would be the engine of growth for the leather sector. Footwear will constitute about 60% of export and second important segment will be leather goods.

 

Referring to the Leather Chemicals Industry, globally consumption of Leather Chemicals is estimated at 1.8 million Tonnes. India consumes 4% of the Leather Chemicals. India’s Leather Chemicals market size is about Rs.15000 millions which is expected to increase further in tandem with the increase in volume of leather processing in the country.

 

Outlook

 

The leather industry in India is again witnessing a difficult phase with inadequate availability and spiraling prices of hides and skins. This slow-down, if sustained, could adversely impact the leather chemicals business. The Company however has confidence in the longer-term prospects of this vital business and is investing further in R and D and Technical services for strengthening its product range and service support to customers.

 

As mentioned, the SBU has striven to broaden its activities by entry into the business of manufacturing Construction Chemicals.

 

TEA [SBU-TEA]

 

Industry Structure and Developments

 

India’s tea production during 2010 was about 965 million Kg down by 14 million Kg from the previous year figure.

The drop in production was due to erratic weather conditions coupled with pest attack in North Eastern India. There was a diminution in the volume of tea exported as compared to 2009. However, domestic consumption of tea touched 840 million Kg as against 832 million Kg. in the previous year, a growth of around 3%.

 

Outlook

 

Plans have been chalked out to launch packed tea in domestic market and to sell the same in select markets utilising the FMCG distribution channel. The SBU proposes to launch high quality CTC tea under the Brand name Tarang and premium quality Darjeeling orthodox and green tea under the Brand name Balmer Lawrie – The Tea. Also, on the anvil are plans for coming out with tea bags. In addition, greater opportunity is seen in Contract Packaging.
