MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

The Company provides seating solutions for transport applications and has established a leading position in the country catering to all segments of the automotive industry, barring passenger car segment.

 

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS:

 

The economy grew by 8.6% in 2010-11 and industry sector grew by 8.1%. This was entirely driven by 10% growth in construction sector. The other two sub-components namely mining and electricity had reduced growth rates of 6.2% and 5.1% compared to 6.9% and 6.4% of last year. Growth in manufacturing sector remained unchanged at 8.8%.

 

In fiscal 2010-11, the Rupee depreciated to Rs.47.57 per USD in May 2010 but with a sharp upturn in portfolio flows and a strong domestic growth, the Rupee has rebounded close to Rs.45.00 per USD in the third quarter of financial year 2010-11 and exited the financial year at Rs.44.65.

 

All the segments of the Indian automotive industry registered high growth during 2010-11. The following table highlights the industry sales figures in vehicle units.

The growth of commercial vehicle segment and the tractor segment of the domestic automotive industry resulted in the overall sales of the Company growing by 27% in 2010-11 (on comparable basis after the transfer of two wheeler seats and foaming business to the subsidiary company viz., Harita Fehrer Limited, Chennai). Due to start of supply of new products to export customers, the Company’s export sales grew by 92% to Rs.214.700 Millions. The Company has registered a sale of Rs.2250.000 Millions in 2010-11 (Rs.1770.000 Millions in 2009-10 on a comparable basis) and a loss of Rs.58. 000 Millions in 2010-11 (loss of Rs.10.000 Millions in 2009-10).

 

The Company has posted losses in the financial year 2010-11 due to lack of adequate capacity in the vendor base, causing unprecedented air freight to the export customers based in the US. Poor vendor capacity also affected timely delivery to other domestic customers leading to penalties and the steep rise in commodity prices for steel, foam, plastic and vinyl rexines, which could not be passed on to customers.

 

 

 

 

PRODUCT-WISE PERFORMANCE

 

The high growth in all segments of the domestic automotive industry resulted in the Company’s overall sales growing by 27% in 2010-11. The sales in commercial vehicles segment resulted in a growth of 53% in MHCV segment and sales from tractor segment grew by 29%.

 

 

BUSINESS OUTLOOK AND OVERVIEW

 

In 2011-12, the GDP is projected to grow at 7.0 - 7.5%. This outlook of the economy is expected to grow in the domestic automotive sector. The MHCV and LCV segments are expected to grow at 12% and 20% respectively. Tractor segment is estimated to register a growth of 10%. As regards the exports, the US market is expected to grow by 2%. In view of the factors mentioned above, the sale is estimated to grow at a rate higher than 2010-11.

 

The Company has firmed up the strategy to improve market share by creating assembly locations close to the customers and strengthening marketing and product development. The results of this action will start realizing from 2011-12 onwards.
