INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services and software workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth in 2011 slowed because of persistently high inflation and interest rates and little progress on economic reforms. High international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures contributing to a higher fiscal deficit, and a worsening current account deficit. Little economic reform took place in 2011 largely due to corruption scandals that have slowed legislative work. India's medium-term growth outlook is positive due to a young population and corresponding low dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates, and increasing integration into the global economy. India has many long-term challenges that it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural employment opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education, and accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

A. Operational Performance

 

The Company recorded a turnover of Rs.21140.000 Millions as compared to Rs.19410.000 Millions during the previous financial year registering growth of more than 8.9 % compared to previous financial year. The export sales was more or less at the same level. Export sales (F.O.B. Value) for the year 2011-12 was Rs.5603.800 Millions as compared to Rs.5568.000 Millions for the year 2010-11. The various profit parameters were marginally down due to various factors. However, the Company has been able to maintain it at a decent level at the end of the year. The Company achieved Earning before Interest, Depreciation and Tax (EBIDTA) of Rs.1112.700 Millions for the year 2011-12 against that of Rs.1567.200 Millions for the year 2010-11. The Cash Profit, Profit after tax and EPS for the year remained Rs.903.800 Millions, Rs.497.000 Millions and Rs.3.60 per share respectively.

 

B. Capital Projects for the year 2011-12

 

During the year, the Company has completed the project to produce high value added derivatives i.e. Dextrose Anhydrate for both its corn processing units. Apart from these, the Company has also carried out modernization and improvements at all of its solvent extraction and refining projects. Inspired from the success of its maiden renewable energy forward integration projects of generating power from bio gas, the Company has also decided to put one more such forward integration project at both the corn processing units. The projects are expected to start functioning commercially by the end of first quarter. Apart from these, the lignite based power generation project has also been put in place and started functioning from April 2012. The Company also has substantial amount of capital WIP at the end of FY 2011-12. The major portion of it is for new state of art 750 TPD corn processing unit in the state of Karnataka. This project is also expected to function commercially by second quarter of current F.Y. The Board of Directors is proud to inform that the Company is ploughing back the retained earnings for the future growth.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

 

Statements on the Management Discussion and Analysis and current year’s outlook are management’s perception at the time of drawing this report. Actual results may be materially different from those expressed in the statement. Important factors that could influence the Company’s operations includes demand and supply conditions, availability of inputs and their prices both domestic and global, changes in government regulations, tax laws, economic developments within the country and other factors such as litigation and industrial relations.

 

GLOBAL BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT

 

The overall global economic environment have faced merry- go- round situation in the last financial year. The last financial year has seen good and bad face of global business environment. As noted in the last year report, the first quarter was subdued on account of natural tragedy in Japan. The crisis in EU countries added further woes in the global economic scenario during the year. The result of it have seen the various economic fundamentals at its high and its low. The negative sentiments are still alive at least for EU countries, with marginal recovery in US and other economic majors. However, the situation on global business front would not as bad as it was in last Financial Year. The present turmoil is more of emotional reaction as the countries affected are having negligible say in global business.

 

INDIAN ECONOMY and INDUSTRY and SCENARIO

 

The impact of global turmoil on Indian economy has also been felt during the last financial year. The impact however was more due to lack of political will to address the requirement to correct the business related gravity rather than the impact of global turmoil. The lack of political will resulted in huge volatility in commodities, currency, investment in India and domestic inflation. The sentiments for Indian economy are still negative largely due to political will.

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE and DEVELOPMENTS and COMPANY’S PERFORMANCE

 

The Company is engaged in various agro based products with corn processing as its core operational area. Historically the core operation area of the Company was solvent extraction activity; however looking to the potential of growth in corn processing activity the Company has adopted this segment as its core activity segment. The Company is hopeful that this decision would give strength to its position. During the last Financial Year, the topline has increased by 8%. However there is marginal reduction in the profitability parameters, due to loss in Cotton Yarn segment. The Company is engaged in manufacturing and exports of various agro based “products”. The Company has also investment and contribution in environment friendly power generation through windmills and non conventional source of energy. The core activity of the company has gradually been shifted from oil seed extraction to corn processing activities over a period of last few years. The Company has acquired sufficient expertise in this segment and looking to the growth potential of this segment, the Company is putting one more corn processing plant. This would eventually replace this segment as the core segment instead of agro processing segment.

 

SEGMENT WISE PERFORMANCE

 

The Company’s presence is in the segments of Agro Processing, Cotton Yarn, Maize processing and Windmills Power generation.

 

AGRO PROCESSING SEGMENT

 

The performance of this segment has improved significantly. The parity in respect of main product deoiled cake was at decent level compared to last Financial Year. The crop of oil seed was good; the volatility in the prices was also under check during the majority part of the year. Apart from this, the USD/INR Exchange rate also gave additional margins during the season. The refining activity also was more or less in line with the solvent extraction activity. Revenue from this Segment increased from Rs.13112.500 Millions to Rs.14338.900 Millions registering growth of 9.35 % as compared to previous financial year. Earning before interest and tax increased from Rs.483.100 Millions to Rs.611.700 Millions registering growth of 26.62 % as compared to previous financial year.

 

COTTON YARN SEGMENT

 

The performance in this segment is largely due to unprecedented volatility in both cotton and yarn prices. The performance of cotton yarn segment has not been up to the mark during the year due to many adverse factors. The ban of cotton yarn export which was imposed in end 2010 has its impact on profitability in current financial year. The segment has huge carried forward finished goods in 2011-12, which was produced during high price of cotton during the last quarter of 2010-11. This ultimately resulted in high value of stock which sold in the current financial year during the decontrolled export of cotton yarn.

 

Apart from this, segment also continued to operate the FO based captive power plant which resulted in continued high power and fuel cost.

 

The present situation in this segment has now been stabilized. The price of raw material and finished goods are at realistic level. We have also started operating lignite based power plant in April, 2012 which would result in reduction in power cost significantly. We hope that this segment would generate profit and contribute positively in this Financial Year. Revenue from this Segment increased from Rs.2073.800 Millions to Rs.2201.500 Millions registering growth of 6.16 % as compared to previous financial year.

 

MAIZE PROCESSING SEGMENT

 

The Corn Processing Segment has performed with more stability than the two other major segments. The topline has increased by about 10%. The returns for these segments are now at realistic level of around 15 % to 18 %, which was at 22% to 20% during last year.

 

The various returns of this segment are lower compared to last financial year. However, the last financial year was an abnormal year in respect to returns for this segment due to high sugar price which resulted in abnormal return for the sugar substitute Corn Starch Derivatives. With the stability in sugar price, the returns on such Derivatives have also been corrected at realistic level of about 15%.

 

The Company has added Dextrose Anhydrate under their Derivative product which has application in Pharmaceutical Industries and decent return of around 30%. Apart from this, the Company is also adding Sorbitol production line at the Uttaranchal unit. The commercial production of new corn processing unit at Karnataka is expected by second quarter of 2012-13. These would help the Company to further improve the performance of its core segment for both in top as well as in bottom line. Revenue from this Segment increased from Rs.3999.000 Millions to Rs.4387.900 Millions registering growth of 9.72 % as compared to previous financial year.

 

WIND MILLS DIVISION AND CONTRIBUTION TO RENEWABLE ENERGY

 

The Company has presence in environment friendly renewable energy and has total investment in 8 wind turbines with total capacity of 8.45 MW. Over all performance of all wind turbines during the F.Y. 2011-12 was satisfactory and the same has contributed to reduction in power cost for both agro processing and maize processing divisions.

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE WITH RESPECT TO OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE and OVER ALL ANALYSIS

 

The performance during the last financial year as a whole is satisfactory considering the decent topline under present economic scenario.

 

OUTLOOK FOR THE YEAR 2012-13

 

In the financial year 2011-12, the performance of various segments of the company was satisfactory. The Company is also setting up new state of art plant for maize processing, derivatives and other value added products in the state of Karnataka. The total capital outlay for this project is estimated at around Rs.1500.000 Millions. The commercial production from the said plant is expected to start by second quarter of current F.Y. This new project will help the maize processing division to gain more market share and will help the Company by improving overall financial performance.
