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.

OPERATIONS / OUTLOOK:

 

During fiscal 2011-12, global uncertainties led to a slow down of demand in the Indian economy, which combined with rising input costs, higher interest rates and the sudden depreciation in the value of the rupee has put pressure on margins. Maintaining its focus on providing customer specific solutions, the company has posted record net sales revenues crossing the milestone of Rs. 5000.000 Millions Sales (net of excise duty) for the year ended 31st March, 2012 were Rs. 5407.100 Millions as against Rs.4663.600 Millions in the previous year, an increase of 16%. However margin pressures resulted in Profit before tax (PBT) being lower at Rs.688.700 Millions as compared to Rs. 796.500 Millions in 2010-11, down by 13.5%. After providing for current and deferred taxes, the Profit after tax (PAT) was Rs. 482.900 Millions (Rs.539.200 Millions in 2010-11), down by 10.5%.

 

Economic and financial events over the year, however, have increased concerns about the sustainability of the growth momentum - high and persisting inflation coupled with a continuing high fiscal deficit have emerged as significant risk factors in sustaining India’s growth. In general higher global metals and commodity prices have contributed to rising input costs which are being progressively passed on to customers. Currently India’s overall balance of payments remains weak, putting pressure on the Rupee which has touched a historic low. Government

action in attracting Foreign Direct investments, which have slowed since the last quarter of fiscal 2011, and reversing the Centre’s policy inaction, are the much required steps to set the India growth story back on track.

 

The fundamental drivers of India’s growth prospects remain intact. However, global developments, in conjunction

with Indian policy responses to the concerns noted above, are likely to make 2012-13 a challenging year. The management is taking cognizance of these challenges and is geared to face them. To further consolidate their position, capacities will be sweated to enable the company regain its profitability.

BUSINESS REVIEW:

 

The company is in the ball and roller bearing business. The annual production of the domestic organized sector has increased by 13% to Rs. 45000.000 Millions for the year 2011-12. The company’s market share in the domestic organized sector is 12% approximately. Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) account for 65% - 70 % of the demand while the rest is supplied to the Aftermarket (18% - 20%) and Exports. The domestic ball and roller bearings industry which till recently focused on small and medium diameter range bearings consumed by large volume industries like Automotive, Engineering, Power transmission, Renewable Energy, Railways, have now included large size bearings in their manufacturing plans.

 

During fiscal 2011-12 industrial growth has moderated. While the long term outlook of the Indian economy remains positive there are clear challenges in the immediate short term. However, the Indian economy has many inherent strengths - strong domestic consumption, the unprecedented scale and size of the 12th Plan leading to continued demand from the core sectors like steel, cement, mining, oil and natural gas, the implementation of the Western and Eastern Freight Corridors of the Railways and the Metro railways in important cities, the low vehicle penetration coupled with improving highway and rural road network development making India a key market for global players- all of which will have a direct and favourable impact on the growth of the bearings industry. India’s automotive sector is expected to be one of the fastest growing in the world over the next several years aided by favourable demographics and rising disposable income of the expanding middle class households. The Indian governments Automotive Mission Plan 2016 will facilitate such growth and targets a doubling of the automotive industries contribution to the Indian economy between  2006-2016.

 

Infrastructure spending in the 12th Five Year Plan is expected to double to US$ 1 trillion and these investments in

roads, railways and power generation will result in a multiplier effect across the core sectors. With the government

commitment to low carbon intensity energy, renewable energy is an exciting new growth area Overall prospects for industrial development remain positive and therefore the strong demand for bearing products is expected to be

sustained in the coming years.

 

To meet growing customer expectations, the company has regularly invested in modern manufacturing technology so that high precision is embedded in all products and quality improvements are a continuing process. In the highly demanding overseas markets, the company has leveraged its technological and product development capabilities and customer focus to be rated an important global supplier.

 

During 2011-12, the automotive industry, the largest consumer of quality bearings, has witnessed buoyant growth

in almost all segments. Tabled below are growth estimates for 2012-13 projected by the company, after assessing

demand forecasts with all major OEMs
