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.

Due to continued losses, the Company is continuously facing difficulties in managing its cash flows and working capital requirements. In order to correct its working capital position and liquidity challenges arising out of the mismatch of the loan maturities and potential projected earnings, the Company approached the lenders for restructuring of its entire debt for suitable realignment under Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) mechanism. The CDR Cell approved the proposal of debt restructuring with super majority of the lenders on September 29, 2011, and issued the Letter of Approval (LOA), based on which, the lenders agreed to the package and signed the Master Restructuring Agreement (MRA) on February 25, 2012.

The Company commissioned its wall tiles plant during the year in this division, however being the first year of wall tiles and trial run the performance of wall tile was not upto the expectations.

 

Tiles division continues to contribute maximum turnover in the Company. Total revenue from this division is Rs. 1457.493 Millions, which is lower by 27.60% against the last year's turnover. The non availability of working capital and low off take in calcareous tiles are the reasons of declined turnover.

The Company is open for grabbing the opportunities in the coming future considering the calculated risk involved in the sector.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

GLOBAL TILES INDUSTRY:

 

The tiles industry as whole is growing at a very good space and recorded a growth rate of more than 10 % annually. Tiles are considered as an integral part of real estate decoration. It makes a huge difference in the way interiors and exteriors of a building looks. Seventy five percent of the total global consumption is accounted by top fifteen counties of the world, where China is the largest consumer and producer of tiles. China is producing more than 4200 million sq. mtrs. p.a. as on 2010.

 

There are many countries which are the large manufacturer of ceramics tiles such as Asia, South America and European represented the trio in the ceramic industries and there are other countries as China, Brazil, Italy and Spain who are the frontrunners for the same.

 

Even though the China is the largest consumer of tiles, the average per capita consumption of tiles is as low as 2.26 sq. mtr. as on 2010, positioning it on the 4th rank, where as Iran has the largest per capita consumption of 4.47 sq. mtr. as on 2010.

 

The innovation and improvisation is key component of the tiles industry which is still giving a healthy CAGR, inspite of global slowdown and downturn.

 

 

INDIAN TILES INDUSTRY:

 

Ceramic industry is one of the fastest growing sector of Indian Economy. India is amongst the top three tiles producers and consumers of tiles, ranked third in row with China and Brazil. Inspite the global slowdown and economic down turn, the Indian tiles industry continues to grow at healthy annual growth rate of 15%.

 

The Indian Tiles Industry comprising of floor and wall tiles, fragmented with organized players and unorganized players. The introduction of vitrified tiles in floor tiles segment has really made the Indian tiles industry blooming. The introduction of conventional products with latest technology increased the organized player's contribution to the industry, in last couple of years.

 

The potential of the sector is very high and promising in nature as per capita tile consumption in India is still as low as 0.50 sq. mtr.

 

The overall industry is prominent and expected to grow at healthy CAGR, with the stronger and positive economic developments in India.

 

 

SANITARYWARE GLOBAL MARKET

 

The sanitaryware production globally is still dominated by Asia Pacific region like China. Top countries manufacturing sanitaryware are China, Mexico, Italy, Turkey and Brazil.

 

The major players in sanitaryware from the globe are TOTA of Japan, American Standard and Kholer of U.S.A., ROCA of Spain, Eczacibasi of Turkey, Duravit and Villeroy and Boch of Germany and Ceramica Althea of Italy.

 

The growth in construction sector and increasing importance to improved sanitation in the developing countries are driving the demand of sanitaryware across the world. The construction growth in China made it the largest toilet market globally in 2010.

 

As per the market report of experts, the global ceramic sanitaryware production is expected to grow from 325 million units in 2011 to 443 million units by 2016, at an estimated CAGR of 6.39% for the same period.

 

 

SANITARYWARE INDIAN MARKET

 

Sanitation conditions have improved a lot in India in last decade, due to urbanization and increase in literacy rate. The increase in per capita income and improvisation of standard of living has increased the consumption of sanitaryware also in India.

 

India being one of the developing countries, the market of sanitaryware is showing an increased CAGR in last five years versus stagnant in the developed markets like USA and Europe. This has made an attraction for the international sanitaryware players.

 

The Indian Sanitaryware market is expected to grow immensely at 18 % to 20 % CAGR over the next five years, due to demand from retail and institutional sectors in India and Globe.

 

According to the experts report and research on sanitaryware, in the coming years India will witness huge improvements in the sanitation level and is set to become the second largest consumer of sanitaryware products in Asia-Pacific region.

 

 

GLOBAL MARBLE INDUSTRY:

 

There is huge import of high grade marble from countries like Italy, Turkey, Spain and Middle East countries. However, affordability is a major issue for the imported variants of marble. In addition, there exists wide variation in the quality of natural marble, which has created the demand for Composite marble. Composite marble, also known as calcareous tiles or agglomerated marble, is produced by binding selected marble chips (93 to 95%) with specially formulated resin (7 to 5%). It is one of the alternative choices to natural marble since a large part of these marble consists of natural marble chips and therefore possess similar characteristics of marble. China and Italy are two leading countries producing composite marbles and supplying to global markets.

 

 

INDIAN OVERVIEW FOR AGGLOMERATED MARBLE:

 

The marble industry in India has been flourishing ever since ages, which has made India the fourth largest producer of marbles in the world after Belgium, France and Greece. The Indian marble industry is not only confined at production or supply of the marbles but export of highly acclaimed stones such as blocks, flooring, calibrated (ready to fix tiles), monuments, slabs, structural slabs, tomb stones, cobbles, cubes, sculptures, artifacts, pebbles, kerbs, and landscape garden stones has also been its important part.

 

The constant growth of Indian marble industry is because of the reason that they are highly acclaimed and possess characters like low cost, beautiful looks and longevity. In India, Rajasthan is the main depository of marble. The state accounts for over 80% of total marble production in India.

 

However the agglomerated marble market in India is opened just few years back, with very few players in manufacturing. There are traders who import the agglomerated marble and distribute the same in India. The present awareness of the product has made a good prosperous for the product.

 

 

GLOBAL OVERVIEW OF ALUMINUM INDUSTRY:

 

Globally the growth of aluminium business was slower due to various factors like fear of sovereign defaults, Greece crisis and problems faced by the Euro Zone countries. Further the tightening monetary environment across the world, especially emerging markets like China and India, has blocked the growth of the Industry.

 

The pricing pressure due to above factors has increased the global inventory of aluminum, making further declined prices. Given the price movement of LME and cost pressure made a several capacity curtailment worldwide.

 

 

INDIAN ALUMINUM INDUSTRY:

 

India witnessed the healthy growth rate of around 9% in the recent past. The strong demand continued from transportation, packing, power and building and construction industries in India.

 

The aluminum production depends on bauxite, and India is rich in such minerals. The outlook of Indian Aluminum Industry is very good, inspite of the cost pressure and global slowdown. It is expected that there will be robust demand, in coming years.

 

 

GROWTH DRIVERS OF THEIR INDUSTRY

 

If they look the ceramics industry as a whole, stronger growth is predicted in the coming years, depending on the positive economic development with liberalized policies. With increase in population, urbanization and income overall sectors will show a very good growth rate in coming future. The outlook for the tile industry appears to be positive over the medium term. This optimism stems from certain credible estimates which highlight the likelihood of robust demand over the medium term. The growth of our industry is depended on the growth of other sectors like real estate and construction industry. And to go more in deep there are some sectors which are mentioned as below:

 

Ř       GROWING  URBANIZATION  AND CHANGING CONSUMER PREFERENCES

 

As migration from rural to urban areas continues, urban population is set to touch 590 mn by 2030. Per capita income has grown by 66% in last five years and is expected that by 2025, 12% of the households will have income above INR 500,000, led to products being looked at as a style statement rather than a necessity. Rapid urbanization and rise in incomes has led to increase in standard of living, in turn creating demand for superior tiles, sanitaryware, bathroom fittings and accessories.

 

Ř       REPLACEMENT DEMAND ONLY ACCOUNTS FOR 10% OF THE MARKET

 

Majority of people tend to stick with the tiles and bathroom fittings that they get at the time of purchase. Currently, the replacement market is estimated to be just 10% of the total market, whereas in developed nations it accounts for 80% of the market. As income and standards of living increase, so too will the demand for refurbishing and repairing homes and thus replacement demand for Tiles and Sanitaryware will increase.

 

Ř       GROWING HOUSING AND REAL ESTATE SECTOR

 

The real estate market is expected to be around USD 42 bn by 2012 growing at a CAGR of 30%. The housing sector is being driven by a rise in disposable income levels, ease in availability of finance, increased urbanization & the rising number of nuclear families. According to the XI FYP, total rural housing shortage by FY 2011 is expected to be 49 mn houses.

 

Real estate plays a critical role in the development of the Indian economy. Over the next decade, the real estate sector is expected to grow by 30 %. The sector is divided into four sub-sectors: housing, retail, hospitality, and commercial. The housing sub-sector contributes 5-6 % to the country's gross domestic product (GDP). Meanwhile, retail, hospitality and commercial real estate are also growing significantly, catering to India's growing needs of infrastructure. The construction industry ranks third among the 14 major sectors in terms of direct, indirect and induced effects in all sectors of the economy, according to a study done by ICRA. A unit increase in expenditure in this sector has a multiplier effect and the capacity to generate income as high as five times. The positive effects of growth in real estate sector are spread over more than 250 ancillary industries. The Indian real estate market size is expected to touch US$ 180 billion by 2020. Recent growth in the Indian economy has stimulated demand for land and developed real estate across industries. Demand for residential, commercial and retail real estate is rising throughout India, accompanied by increased demand for hotel accommodation and improved infrastructure.

 

Ř       FOCUS ON HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY

 

With the Indian Tourism Industry expected to grow by 8% till 2020, the hotel industry is facing a deficit of more than 150,000 rooms. Demand is expected to exceed supply by at least 100% over the next two years. Government has approved 300 hotel projects, half of which are 5 Star projects. The demand-supply gap in the hospitality industry would inherently increase the demand for our products.

 

Ř       COMMERCIAL CONSTRUCTION SET TO PICK UP AGAIN

 

Commercial construction is expected to grow at CAGR of 20-22 % over the next 5 years. IT/ITeS sector alone is expected to require 250 mn sq. ft. of commercial office space by 2013. Organized retail sector is expected to grow at a CAGR of 30% and expected to add 323 mn sq. ft. of new retail space by 2012. Office and retail buildings would require sophisticated interiors which would increase demand for our products.

 

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

According to a real estate consultant's report, India's infrastructure sector will require investment of about US$ 1 trillion in the 12th Five Year Plan (2012-17). One of the report prepared by well known institute states that about 97 million jobs are likely to be created over 2012-22 across different sectors in the country due to which, India would potentially need to build an average of 8.7 billion square feet (sq. ft.) of real estate space every year. This would be a great attraction for investors looking for opportunities in infra segment. As the Company is directly linked with the real estate sector and infrastructure industry, the growth will be seen in near future.

 

The Company is making strong efforts for increasing its market shares especially in sanitaryware and agglomerated marble segment, with its brand and quality products. Considering the immense opportunities in the market, Company will achieve its goals and target in the coming years and surpass all the hurdles with its experience and support of all associates. With the strong and positive development in the economy, growth in real estate and infrastructure industry along with other demand drivers, the Company's product will have demand and will capture the bigger market share.
