GENERAL REVIEW

The Company’s turnover has increased about 15% to Rs.57500.000 Millions compared to Rs.50200.000 Millions in previous year. The growth is mainly due to increase in sales of Tyre Section which standalone registered a growth of about 27% from Rs.28500.000 Millions to Rs.36090.000 Millions. Current year was a tough period as the Company faced challenges, where Tyre Section went through sharp hikes in raw material cost and Cement exhibited a sluggish trend for most part of the year.

 

Cement sales have dropped about 3% due to lower cement prices industry wide, especially in southern India. Other Sections of the Company i.e Rayon and Chemicals have witnessed about 16% growth in turnover.

 

The Company could manage the overall volume growth in various business segments, but the margins were adversely affected by sharp increase in input and distribution costs as well as higher depreciation cost by Rs.1000.000 Millions and higher interest cost by Rs.1300.000 Millions.

 

Work at Spun Pipe Section and Hindusthan Heavy Chemicals section continues to be under suspension.

 

CEMENT SECTIONS

 

1. Vasavadatta Cement

 

Operational performance of this section continues to be good and it has achieved highest-ever production of Cement during the year. The production figures of this Section are as under:

 

 

 

2010-11

(Metric Tons)

2009-10

(Metric Tons)

Clinker

3920723

4298390

Cement

4277698

4203373

 

 

Increase in the production of cement, though marginal, has been achieved despite sluggish demand conditions prevailing in the construction sector. New capacity additions by other companies have created a supply surplus situation, which has depressed the cement prices. Substantial increase in the cost of coal and raw materials has additionally increased pressure on the profit margins.

 

Shortage of rail wagons for movement of Cement has also hampered there Cement production, due to which clinker stock continued to remain high. This Industry considerably depends on railway for movement of its input as well as finished products to long-distance market. The shortage of wagons coupled with increase in freight charges by railway as well as road has increased the distribution cost.

 

This Section has been able to withstand severe competition coupled with depressed demand, due to its consistent quality, strong brand image and extensive distribution network.

 

Captive power generation was 444.33 million kwh during the year which has catered to about 97% of the total power requirement of the section. 71.13 million kwh of power generated from the power plants was sold to Gulbarga Electricity Supply Company Limited, as against last year’s 54.15 million kwh.

 

As a part of corporate social responsibility, the unit has continued to undertake various social welfare and development activities around the area of the unit such as Free Health Check up and Treatment Camps, Free Eye Camps, Blood Donation Camps, Dental Camps, Pulse Polio Camps, Fixing Street Lights, Fixing of Animal Trackers, Tree Plantation, Soil Testing and Agriculture Camps and other social activities.

 

During the year, the Unit has bagged the following prizes:

a) Limestone Mines of this Section bagged two first prizes in “Drilling and Blasting”, “Operation and Maintenance of mining machines” and three second prizes in “Overall performance”, “Loading and Transportation” and “Lighting and Electrical installation” from the Director General of Mines Safety during Mines Safety Week Celebrations.

 

b) Under National Safety Awards Scheme-2009, this Section was selected for Runners-up prize for “Lowest Injury Frequency Rate”, which will be presented by the Hon’ble President of India.

 

c) Won five first prizes and three second prizes in various categories from Indian Bureau of Mines during the Mines Environment and Mineral Conservation Week Celebrations, Gulbarga Zone.

 

d) Boiler of Unit No. I Captive Thermal Power Plant of this Section has been awarded second prize for “Safe Industrial Boiler” in the State Level Competition conducted by Karnataka State Safety Institute and Department of Factories and Boilers.

 

e) Awarded “Excellent Water Efficient Unit within the Fence” in the 7th National Award for Excellence in Water Management 2010 – organised by Indian Industries-Godrej Green Business Centre.

           

Apart from the above, one student of Vasavadatta Vidya Vihar has been given “Amul Vidyashree Award” instituted by Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Limited., for excellence in CBSE examination and also 16 Scouts and Guides have been awarded the coveted ‘Rajya Puraskar Award’ for the fourth consecutive year by the Hon’ble Governor of Karnataka. Industrial relations during the year were cordial.

 

 

2. Kesoram Cement

 

Production figures of this Section are as under:

 

 

 

2010-11

(Metric Tons)

2009-10

(Metric Tons)

Clinker

893920

1161200

Cement

1150486

1378833

           

 

Production of Clinker, Cement and Cement despatches were adversely affected mainly due to longer stoppage of one Kiln for replacement of existing 1978 model Cooler with LNV Cooler and replacement of cracked tiers of both the Kilns. In addition, the political agitations in the area further suppressed the Cement demand in the region.

 

Cement prices fluctuated in the market due to demand supply mismatch and also substantial increase in the cost of raw materials, coal, power and other inputs. Due to these reasons the performance of this Section got adversely affected.

 

Captive Thermal Power Plant of this Section generated 106.59 million kwh of Power, out of which 3.3 million kwh were supplied to APTRANSCO during shutdown. About 89% of the power requirement of the Cement Plant is met from the Captive generation and balance Power was purchased from APTRANSCO. This Section is considering feasibility of power generation by Waste Heat Recovery System which will give considerable advantage in cost of power generation.

 

The suit challenging the validity of imposition of Electricity Duty on captive power generation @ 25 paise per Unit from 17.07.2003 by the Government of Andhra Pradesh is still pending before the Hon’ble High Court of Andhra Pradesh.

 

This Section bagged National Award for Mines Safety for the year 2008 from Ministry of Labour and Employment, Director General of Mines Safety, Government of India, which will be presented shortly by the Hon’ble President of India.

 

Basantnagar Limestone Mines of this Section bagged first prize for “ Environment and Health Management” and two second prizes for “Heavy Earth Moving Machinery” and “Publicity, Propaganda and Innovations” from Director General of Mines Safety during Mines Safety Week Celebrations.

 

 

The said Mines also got first prize for “Waste Dump Management” and two second prizes for “Sub-Grade Mineral” and “Overall Performance State Level” from Indian Bureau of Mines during the Mines Environment and Mineral Conservation Week celebrations.

 

As part of corporate social responsibility, the Section is continuing the rural and community development activities in nearby villages, running of Agricultural Demonstration Farm, Model Dairy Farm, Vocational Training Centre for Youth and participating in other social welfare activities such as Pulse Polio Programme, Health Camps, Farmers’ Training, Animal Health Camps, Distribution of Agriculture Implements to poor farmers and Tricycles and Telephone Booths to Handicapped, etc.

 

Industrial relations were cordial during the year.

 

BIRLA TYRES SECTIONS

 

The gross turnover of this Section for the year increased about 27% to Rs.36090.000 Millions from Rs.28500.000 Millions last year. The export sales for the year amounted to Rs.3200.000 Millions as against Rs.3610.000 Millions in the previous year.

 

Though the Section has recorded commendable sales growth but due to sharp increase in raw material prices particularly of natural rubber, profitability has been adversely affected.

 

At Haridwar Plant the operations were suspended for six days due to unprecedented floods and the profitability was further impacted due to 18 days lock-out at Balasore Plant.

 

Capacity expansion to increase the production of Truck/Bus Radial tyres by 85 MT/day at Haridwar (capital outlay: Rs.3500.000 Millions) and Passenger Car Radial tyres by 80 MT/day at Balasore (Capital outlay: Rs.4500.000 Millions) will be completed by 2nd quarter of 2011-12.

 

The Section continues to have the distinction of being certified for ISO-9001, TS-16949, ISO-14001, SA-8000, OSHAS- 18001 and TPM.

 

Relations with employees have been cordial and conducive to growth.

 

RAYON AND TRANSPARENT PAPER SECTIONS

The year started with the VFY (Viscose Filament Yarn) demand displaying signs of weakening with the inventory built up. The weakness reversed during the 2nd Quarter due to increase in prices of other competing fibres. Also the VFY production cost in China increased due to limited availability of Cotton Linter Pulp and Rayon Grade Wood Pulp. Thus the cost of VFY imports also increased. This helped in improved sentiments for VFY in indigenous market leading to higher realisations and reduction in inventory level. The exports also increased substantially from 612 M.T. to 895 M.T. during the year.

 

Production of T.P. (Transparent Paper) was marginally higher due to improved demand from the ‘Fireworks’ industry which is the main consuming sector of this product. The exports were 332 M.T. against 293 M.T. of last year.

 

Chemical business was some how satisfactory. Steep rise in the price of Sulphur, Power and Charcoal will now affect the cost of production severely. This will put pressure on realisation which may result in slackness in demand.

 

Owing to unprecedented increase in Pulp and Sulphur prices during the year, the operating margins of the

Section suffered. Also due to global shortage of Cotton Linter Pulp, the price of Rayon Grade Wood Pulp is showing strong trend of increase which coupled with recent abnormal increase in coal price may affect the profit of the Section adversely during the coming year. The sale prices of VFY and T.P. are almost at saturation level and further increase, if any, may spur substitution and subsequent fall in demand.

 

The technical performance of the Unit was satisfactory and relations with the employees were cordial during the year.

 

 

SPUN PIPES SECTION

Factory is under Suspension of Work on and from 2nd May 2008 because of day-to-day low production, quality problems and high rejections attributable to workmen. Several Bipartite and Tripartite meetings were held during the year. But, due to continued hostile attitude and rigid stand taken by a section of the workmen and their unions, the efforts made to reach a settlement were not successful. The blockade and barricade in front of the factory gate is still continuing. Finished goods and other material lying inside the factory could not be removed.

 

HINDUSTHAN HEAVY CHEMICALS SECTION

 

The Production figures of the Section were as under:-

 

Products

2010-11

2009-10

Caustic Soda

5354 MT

11663 MT

Sulphuric Acid

13912 MT

19061 MT

Hydrogen Gas

398446 M3

753453 M3

 

 

Production was adversely affected due to restrictions imposed by Pollution Control Board on operation of Caustic Chlorine Plant during July, 2010 and a fire in Rectifier-Transformer during August, 2010. Presently, the Unit is under ‘Suspension of Work’ with effect from 8th December 2010 consequent upon an illegal strike by a section of contract workers from 1st December, 2010.

 

REPORT ON MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

A. INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

 

·         CEMENT

Indian Cement Industry continues to be the second largest Cement producer in the world with installed capacity of

275.01 Million Tons and producing world-class quality Cement from State-of-the Art technology manufacturing facilities.

 

The Indian Cement Industry had a growth of only 5% in the year as compared to 12% in previous year due to slowdown in the housings sector, prolonged monsoon and delay in execution of infrastructure projects.

 

Cement Industry achieved the capacity utilization of about 75% as against 85% last year. This has dropped mainly due to substantial addition of capacity during the last three years. Capacity utilization in the Southern Region (where both the cement plants of the Company are situated) saw the highest capacity additions in the last three years and average utilization of 65%.

 

·         TYRE

The Indian Tyre Industry is dominated by the organized sector and consists of five major players – MRF, J.K. Tyres, Apollo Tyres, Birla Tyres and Ceat Tyres, who together account for approximately 85% of the industry’s turnover. These big five players are present in all product segments except for two wheeler where only Ceat, MRF and Birla Tyres are present. These companies have a presence in all the major segments of the tyre industry – the replacement market, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) as well as export. Some of the global majors like Bridgestone and Goodyear also have their operations in India. However, they have relatively smaller sized operations today.

 

Quite unlike the global tyre industry, which is dominated by passenger car radial tyre sales, commercial vehicle tyres’ sales constitute 65% of the turnover of the Indian tyre industry. Another point of difference between Indian and the global tyre industry is the extent of radialisation in the commercial vehicle segment. While globally it is around 80%. In India, radials in commercial vehicles hovers around 10-15% which till two years back was at around 5%. As original equipment manufacturers make a move towards embracing radial tyres for their commercial vehicles, radialisation in the truck segment is slowly gaining ground. Keeping these factors in view, radialisation levels in the commercial vehicle segment are expected to be anywhere between 25-30% in the next two years.

 

In anticipation of the next big radialisation wave, most manufacturers have either installed capacities or announced plans of doing the same, including Apollo, Birla, MRF, Bridgestone, J.K. Tyre and Michelin. Similarly, considering strong demand forecast in the passenger car segment, manufacturers across the board are making investments to maximize capacities.

 

The Indian Tyre Industry is equipped to meet the demand of the domestic market, besides generating surpluses for export.

 

·         RAYON AND TRANSPARENT PAPER

The country has annual production capacity of about 40,000 tons of Viscose Filament Yarn and demand is estimated to be around 55,000 tons annually. The gap is met by imports. Hence there is scope of increasing indigenous production for which Indian industry is taking necessary steps for enhancing their production capacity. The boost in demand is due to high cost of imports and rising prices of competing yarn. Even the Section being only producer of Transparent Paper in the country, the demand is not increasing effectively. The high cost of production is making this product unviable in the long run. However the production and sales remained stable. The production was maintained according to the size of demand.

The Industry witnessed good demand for Ductile Iron pipes during the year. Cast Iron pipes continue to face very stiff competition from Ductile Iron pipes. As the Section is under Suspension of Work since 2nd May 2008, no comments are made under the heads “Opportunities and Threats, Segment wise Performance, Outlook and Risks and Concerns”.

 

·         HEAVY CHEMICALS

The capacity utilization of Indian Caustic Soda Industry improved to around 80% during the year due to improvement of demand. The demand for the main product Caustic Soda and joint product Chlorine improved during the 3rd quarter and peaked towards the end of the year as imports were lower due to unfavourable price in international market.

 

Capacity utilization of Sulphuric Acid Plant was normal despite inflow of by-product material from zinc and copper smelters.

 

As the Section is under suspension of work since 8th December, 2010, no comments are made under the heads

Opportunities and Threats, Segment wise Performance, Outlook and Risk and Concerns.

 

 

B. OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

 

·         CEMENT

In order to meet future demand for Cement, Industry has taken up large scale addition in capacity during the last three years and further substantial capacity addition is planned during next two years.

 

Demand for Cement from sectors such as Roads, Railways, Power Projects is expected to improve as Centre is planning for massive investments during Twelfth Plan. Government has been increasing its budget allocation substantially in High-ways, Roads for Rural Connectivity, mass Housing and urban Developments, etc.

 

Non-availability of adequate good quality Coal as well as Railway Wagons for transportation are the main threats, considering the continuous increase in Cement Capacity.

 

·         TYRE

 

Opportunities

 

-         The national thrust in road infrastructure and construction of expressways and national highways presents a range of opportunities for the tyre industry.

 

-         Early mover advantage in the rapidly growing truck radial segment in India by Birla Tyres where most manufacturers will be adding substantial capacities in FY 2011-12.

 

Threats

-         Continued volatility of raw material prices.

-         Currency fluctuation

 

·         RAYON AND TRANSPARENT PAPER

Due to increase in cost of inputs, China, the main competitor in India, also increased its export price of VFY. This led to lesser imports and gave an opportunity to Indian manufacturers to augment their realization and deliveries. However, steep increase in price is posing threats for substitution by cheaper fibres in certain segments.

 

Price increase of T.P. due to steep increase in cost of inputs is posing biggest threat of diversion to cheap imports and other substitutes. The recent regulatory restrictions in usage of plastic may provide an opportunity for increased usage of Transparent Paper.

 

C. OUTLOOK

 

·         CEMENT

Even-though India is the second largest cement producer in the world, the per capita cement consumption is only 143 Kg. as against the world average of about 400 Kg. Hence, there is abundant scope for the growth of Cement Industry.

 

India has huge potential for cement consumption growth with major emphasis of the Government on infrastructure development and boost to housing sector etc.

 

·         TYRE

Fortune of tyre industry is linked to the automobile and transportation sectors. Future looks bright due to various economic fillips by the government, large infrastructure spending and a cautiously positive sentiment.

 

·         RAYON AND TRANSPARENT PAPER

VFY demand should grow with increase in textile consumption in India and usage of VFY in various allied applications globally. Besides growth, market trends in China, prices of competing fibres and availability of pulp will largely govern VFY prices.

 

The outlook of the T.P. business remains positive in view of recent Government notification on the restricted use of plastics. However, the realization will be under pressure due to cheap imports.
