CORPORATE INFORMATION:

 

 

The company is a public limited company domiciled in India and incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956.Its shares are listed on the Bombay, Ahmedabad and National stock exchanges. The Company belongs to the reputed industrial house of Arvind Mafatlal Group in India. Established in 1967, it has the largest integrated fluorochemicals complex in India. The Company primarily focuses on fluorine chemistry, producing refrigeration gases, some basic building block fluorides and specialty organofluorines. Its manufacturing facilities are located at Surat, Gujarat and Dewas, Madhya Pradesh.

 

 

YEAR IN RETROSPECT:

 

Revenue from operations increased by 63% from Rs.4307.400 millions to Rs.7038.600 millions during the year. Income from sale of carbon credits increased from Rs.783.300 millions to Rs.2519.000 millions and the revenue from rest of the business increased from Rs.3524.100 millions to Rs.4519.600 millions. Profit before tax increased by 307% from Rs.1059.900 millions to Rs.3246.700 millions and profit after tax grew by 328% from Rs.716.400 millions to Rs.2312.400 millions.

 

Fiscal 2012 has been significant in many ways;

 

Ř       The Company achieved its highest ever sales and profits during the year.

 

Ř       Money advanced to Mafatlal Industries Limited (MIL) and/or the group companies to support MIL’s restructuring have been received back by the Company, including interest wherever applicable, except Rs.300.000 millions which remained invested as on 31st March 2012 in the fully redeemable noncumulative preference shares of MIL and which is expected to be redeemed soon.

 

As reported earlier, the Company invested in fully redeemable non-cumulative preference shares of Mafatlal Industries Limited in the year 2004-05 pursuant to the order of the BIFR in the matter of Mafatlal Industries Limited’s financial restructuring. During the year 2010-11, Mafatlal Industries Limited’s net worth turned positive and it was out of the purview of BIFR. During the year, Mafatlal Industries Limited redeemed such preference shares worth Rs.300.000 millions (face value) as they could leverage the idle assets and improve liquidity. A provision of Rs.594.000 millions made in an earlier year towards diminution in the value of investments in Mafatlal Industries Limited preference shares has been written back as no longer required. Similarly, provisions made for Rs.155.200 millions towards diminution in value of investments made in Mafatlal Denim Limited has also been written back as no longer required. On these two counts, the aggregate amounts of Rs.749.300 millions have been written back to the Profit and Loss Account of the Company.

 

2011-12 started on a high with strong demand pull from the FMCG, pharma, agro and chemical industries, both in and outside of India. However, as the year progressed, the financial crisis deepened in Europe, the US industry indicators continued to remain weak resulting in an overall slowdown in demand in those economies which finally impacted the finished product prices adversely, creating a price-cost imbalance in strategic raw materials.

 

In India, the weakening of the rupee put enormous inflationary pressures on the economy in the second half of the current year forcing the government to take fiscal measures which stagnated public spending, reduced capital and consumer spending which eventually resulted into weakening of overall market demand for the final products of the Company’s customers. This in turn adversely impacted the Company’s volumes and prices in the second half of the year.

 

The Indian rupee vis-ŕ-vis the US $ started the year at 44.45 and was closely range-bound until September when it started weakening rapidly. It reached Rs.54.26 by mid-December before starting to cool off only to reach 48.92 in the first week of February 2012. The Euro followed suit starting the year at 63.23 to a rupee, rising to 71.08 during the last week of November and coming down to 64.12 in February 2012.

 

Since December 2010, the issuance of carbon credits by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) got regularised and no inordinate delays have been faced by the Company in the issuance of its carbon credits. However, as the financial crisis deepened and prolonged in the European Union, the primary market for carbon credits, the Certified Emission Reduction (CER) prices took a sharp hit coming down from Euro 12 per CER to a level of Euro 4 by December. No near term price correction is expected though the Company will be able to sell its full quantity of carbon credits generated till December 2012. It is now certain that the carbon credits generated by the Company, classified as CERs from industrial gases, will not be accepted as a carbon off-set instrument beyond May 2013 by the European Union Emission Trading Scheme, thereby severely restricting their marketability and value proposition.

 

The Company took several long-term, futuristic steps in the past three years by making sizable investments in:

Ř       Research and Development and pilot plant

Ř       Multi-product plant at Surat Contract Research Organisation at Surat

Ř       Contract Research and Manufacturing Services (CRAMS) facility at Dewas

 

Following these significant investments and commissioning of the facilities, the Company is now ready to meet changing customer needs and provide flexible product mix from the enhanced process capabilities. This will also enhance the product pipeline for future growth of the Company.

 

On the 3rd May 2011, the Company made a strategic investment by taking a 51% stake in a research company called Manchester Organics Limited (MOL), in the United Kingdom to derive value from their fluorine Research and Development  which can eventually lead to scale-up operations in India. This will enhance presence of the Company among the Research and Development fraternities and customers in Europe and the United States. The integration between the Company and MOL is proceeding as per plan and the synergy advantages have already started to show up.

 

The company is alert to its responsibilities in health, safety and environmental management. The Company makes sizable investments in HSE year on year.

 

The rating of the company has now been upgraded to ‘CARE AA-‘(indicating high degree of safety regarding timely servicing of financial obligations and very low credit risk) for borrowings with a tenure of more than one year and fund-based facilities. The rating for short-term facilities (less than one year) has been maintained at ‘CARE A+’ (indicating very strong degree of safety regarding timely servicing of financial obligations and lowest credit risk) for its non-fund based facilities.

 

During the year the Company acquired land from the Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation at Dahej for a consideration of Rs.259.600 millions which also includes some basic land development costs. This land will be used for the future expansion plans of the Company which are currently under various stages of consideration.

 

During the year, the Company signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Gujarat Mineral Development

Corporation (GMDC) and Gujarat Fluorochemicals Limited (GFL) to enter into a Joint Venture for the beneficiation of fluorspar ore to be supplied by GMDC to ensure long term supply of fluorspar, which is a key raw material for the Company. It is expected to come on stream during the later part of 2012-13.

 

The strong cash flows during the year have been preserved and deployed in high yield, low risk financial instruments and bank fixed deposits.

 

During the year, residual debentures worth Rs.14.000 millions were repaid and as on 31st March 2012 the Company has no long-term borrowing.

 

 

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY:

 

A. Energy Conservation measures taken:

 

Ř       Achieved power savings by choosing better technology Compressor

Ř       Right sizing of motors resulted in power savings

Ř       Modification of the design of distillation column to achieve higher separation efficiency, hence reducing the steam consumption.

Ř       Replacement of old motors with energy efficient motors

Ř       De-scaling of cooling water circuits

Ř       Side stream filters to avoid sedimentation and hence scaling in cooling water circuits

 

B. Additional investment and proposal, if any being implemented for reduction in consumption of energy:

 

Ř       To optimize the steam distribution network, so as to get minimum pressure drops in supply lines.

Ř       Condensate recycle scheme for waste heat boiler to generate additional steam

Ř       Optimization of cooling towers

Ř       Optimization of brine compressor network.

Ř       Waste heat recovery in kiln heating system to save additional natural gas.

Ř       Continuation of last years change, i.e. delta mode replaced by star mode.

Ř       Replacement of mal-functioning steam traps with more efficient steam traps

 

C. Impact of the measures at (A) and (B) above, for the reduction of energy consumption and consequent impact on the cost of production of goods

 

Ř       Power requirement in certain products has come down to 2600 KWH/MT from 3000 KWH/MT

Ř       Cooling tower optimization will give a chance to save approx 200 HP of power consumption by CW pumps

Ř       Compressor circuit optimization will allow to switch off minimum one chilling compressor and maximum of 2.

Ř       Steam condensate recycle will give us additional steam of 400 kg /hr (Approximately).

Ř       By shortening path of steam, they can reduce the pressure drops in the line and will be in position to provide 5 kg steam required to certain reactions.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW:

 

In 2011, the global economy grew 3.8% (5.2% in 2010), while emerging economies grew 6.2% (7.3% in 2010) and advanced economies grew 1.6% (3.2% in 2010). The Indian economy growth is estimated at 6.9% in 2011-12 compared with 8.4% in the preceding two years on account of a weakening global economy, lower industrial growth and reforms slowdown. In India, the slowdown is likely to extend even as the World Bank has projected GDP growth at 7-7.5% in 2012-13.

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW:

 

The US represents the largest market for fluorochemicals. The world fluorocarbon market remained volatile on account of various international agreements, including the Kyoto and Montreal Protocols, as well as nationwide government policies. The hydro chlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) (considered less harmful) market continued to grow in the developing countries due to increasing consumption levels driven by rising incomes, except in Western Europe where concerns pertaining to climate change and competition from alternatives (non-fluorinated products)

hindered growth. The HFC market, which grew considerably in the decade 2001- 2011, will continue its strong advances as HFCs replace HCFCs in the developing world. However, concerns over the global warming potential of HFCs will limit demand particularly in Western Europe, presenting opportunities for HFO fluorocarbons with low global warming potential to capture a portion of the market.

 

OUTLOOK:

 

Global annual demand for fluorine-containing chemicals is forecast to rise 3.9% to 3.5 mn MT in 2016, valued at USD 19.7 bn. Gains will be fuelled by an increasing production of refrigeration and cooling equipment as well as an acceleration in primary aluminium output. In the fluorocarbon segment, demand will rise slightly below the overall fluorochemicals average through 2016. Due to the Montreal Protocol requirements, restrictions for developing countries will begin to take effect in 2015. The Asia Pacific region will continue to be the largest market for fluorochemicals, accounting for over half of the worldwide demand in 2016 and will also grow at a fast pace. The US, Western Europe and Japan will account for a shrinking share of the world fluorochemicals market through 2016, although they witnessed an increase in demand following the decline of the 2006-2011 period.

 

GROWTH DRIVERS:

 

Pharmaceuticals Market:

 

The Indian pharmaceuticals market continued to grow at around 15%, registering a turnover of Rs.596210.000 millions in 2011-12. Pharma exports grew to USD 10.5 bn in 2011-12 compared with USD 6 bn in 2006-07, recording a 16% CAGR. IMS Health estimates that pharmerging markets will grow 14-17% through 2014, while major developed markets will grow only 3-6%. Although the US will retain its position as the single largest market (estimated annual growth of 3-6% in the next five years), China’s pharmaceutical market is expected to grow over 20% annually and contribute 21% to overall global growth through 2013.

 

Agrochemicals Market:

 

Agriculture accounted for 13.9% of the countries GDP in 2011- 12. Crop protection chemicals account for around 2% of the total chemicals market in India. The domestic crop protection market is estimated at around USD 1.8 bn and has grown at 5% per annum in the last five years. The export of crop protection chemicals is estimated at ~ USD 1.6 bn. The Rs.150000.000 millions Indian agrochemical industry could grow to Rs.500000.000 millions by 2020 through innovative farming solutions that address low farmholding sizes, resources and knowhow.

 

Automobiles, Air-Conditioner and Refrigerator Market:

 

The Automotive sector sales have been rising at an impressive 17% CAGR over the last five years and is slated to grow by 10 to 12% in 2012-13 on the expanded base. India’s AC market is pegged at about 2.5 mn units (windows and spilt), while annual refrigerator sales are pegged at almost 8 mn units. The overall room AC market in India was estimated at 4.2 mn units in 2011- 12, and growing at over 30% annually. Split ACs dominate the industry, commanding over 68% of the overall share. The Indian AC and refrigerant market are likely to witness a 15% CAGR over the coming years.
