OPERATIONS

 

Heavy Commercial Vehicles

 

The Company recorded sales of 5543 vehicles during this period (prior period 4518 vehicles), resulting in a turnover of Rs.10340 million (prior period Rs.9141 million). Overall volumes on a pro rata basis doubled, in spite of severe competition from well-established players. The Company has made significant inroads into the tipper segment and expects to further improve its share in this segment in the current period. A market share of 26% in the HCV Tipper segment is a commendable achievement. The Company successfully introduced BSIII compliant vehicles as per the next stage of emission norms and also extended its marketing network to include Bhutan and Nepal. During the period, The Company completed the installation of the entire capacity of 12000 tippers per year and plans to offer more products in the HCV segment and make a foray in the 16 tonne segment in the coming year. The Company completed the assembly of the frame line during the period .

 

Shri J.P. Gupta, Transport Commissioner of Gujarat, inaugurated the flagship Truck Centre at Hazira on March 5, 2011. During his visit, the transport commissioner complimented The Company for setting up a state of the art service center. The Management wishes to place on record its sincere appreciation of each and everyone associated with the project for the dedication and hard work in bringing the service Centre to a successful fruition.

 

The second milestone was the award to The Company of “Truck Application Builder of the Year 2011” in May. This is a prestigious award conferred by the jury of Zee Business and CV magazine, in association with Apollo Tyres. This prestigious award is a result of the untiring efforts of Their research scientists in designing specialized applications such as tippers, trailers and cement mixers of international quality at an affordable price. These products havebeen launched under the brand name of Transztar. Tranzstar’s capacity of4000 trailers is the largest single location capacity in India and the plant manufactures trailers for customers outside the AMW fold also.

 

With the expansion of the service and parts network, the after-market support gained considerable traction during the period. With a centralized parts warehouse in Pune, regional warehouses and authorized dealers across the country, spare parts sales contributed revenues which opened up a new revenue stream, while providing the support required in the field.

 

The Company’s sale of refurbished vehicles under the Pre Owned Vehicles programme, kicked off successfully during the period, with resale prices fetching 10 to 15 % higher prices as compared to competitor models in the same category.

Truck sales cross 10,000 units

Mumbai: India's third largest heavy commercial vehicle manufacturer, Asia MotorWorks (AMW) grew strongly during the year ended March 2012, with its sales rising by 50% to 10,000 trucks.
