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.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

INDIAN ECONOMY

 

The economic environment in India has deteriorated significantly over the last 12 months. In response, the Government of India has introduced a series of wide ranging reforms to facilitate foreign investment, control the fiscal deficit and improve growth prospects. These have ranged from reducing subsidies on fuel to the opening up of previously protected sectors such as multi brand retailing and insurance to foreign direct investment.

 

However, whilst these policies are implemented, controlling inflation remains a high priority. For the year ended March 2013, WPI based inflation is expected to be 7.5%. This assumes continued near term staple food price inflation and the impact of the pass-through of market based oil prices into retail fuel prices. The increases in the indirect and services tax rates in the last budget are likely to add to the inflationary pressures.

 

Inflation is also the key driver for broader fiscal policy. The Reserve Bank of India has been unable to reduce interest rates meaningfully to stimulate consumption led growth. Ongoing volatility in the foreign exchange market and the depreciation of rupee has added additional complexity for policy makers.

 

As per RBI, India’s GDP growth is estimated to be 6.5% for the year ended March 2012, lower than the 8.4% growth in Year Ending (YE) March 2011 and 10% in YE March 2010. In YE March 2012, Index of Industrial Production (IIP) registered a growth of 2.8% compared to 8.2% in YE March 2011. Except Electricity which grew by 8.2%, the remaining two sectors – Mining and Manufacturing remained under pressure at (2.0)% and 2.9% y-o-y, respectively in YE March 2012. Despite a delayed monsoon season, the agriculture sector is expected to grow by 3.0%.

 

 

AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY

 

The long term Auto industry dynamics in India are attractive from both end market and manufacturing platform perspectives. Consumer demand has been underpinned by favorable demographic changes, in particular by ongoing urbanization and an increasing middle class. Disposable incomes have also increased and correspondingly raised vehicle ownership levels. Over the last 5 years, relatively high GDP growth and industrial activity increased the demand for commercial vehicles. Current low levels of agricultural mechanization have resulted in strong tractor demand. India is expected to be the third largest automotive market by volumes in 2015 after US and China.

 

India has also been acknowledged by many global OEMs as one of the most strategically important emerging auto markets in the world. It is not only an attractive destination for OEMs as an end customer market but also an

increasingly critically important manufacturing base. For example, global majors Ford, GM and Renault-Nissan have all announced that they will set up their manufacturing facilities in India. These manufacturing facilities will be used to service both the domestic and export markets.

 

AUTO INDUSTRY: OUTLOOK

 

In addition to an overall declining GDP growth environment, near term demand pressures have had a significant impact on the Indian passenger vehicle sector. This has been a consequence of a number of different factors including increased excise duties and fuel prices, relatively high interest rates and generally weaker consumer sentiment. Production volumes are now effectively flat year-on-year at 1.1% for 1Q FY13. This is a significant decline compared to previous two quarters which grew by +9.0% and +10.2% year-on-year.

 

Industrial activity has also experienced sequential contraction and volatility. The commercial vehicle production has had its second sequential quarter of negative growth in Q1FY13 of (5.2)% and (3.8)% in the previous quarter. This is in context of a 22.9% growth in the last year. Although LCV production volumes have shown marginal growth, MCVs volumes have declined by over 15%. 2/3 Wheeler volumes have deteriorated rapidly during the last quarter from +7.9% to -3.0% in Q1 FY13. Despite these current challenges, there are some favorable dynamics: new product launches to stimulate demand, OEMs have re-balanced inventory levels, replacement market demand is improving and import costs reduced with a depreciating rupee.

 

Looking ahead more broadly, SIAM expects domestic passenger car sales to grow at 1% to 3% for the year ending March 2013 and commercial vehicles by 3% to 5% for the same period. Longer term the Indian auto component industry is expected to reach over US$ 110 billion by 2021, growing at a CAGR of 11%. For the year ended March 2013, the overall industry is expected to grow 5-7%. Tractor production volumes are expected to reach 710,000 by 2015-16, growing at a CAGR of 2.6%.

 

AHMEDNAGAR FORGINGS: STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK

 

Ahmednagar Forgings is the second largest forging axle beam and crankshaft manufacturing company in India with world class manufacturing facilities. The Company has state of the art facilities with presses, hammers, up setters and ring rolling machines. It has an extensive product portfolio with a range of highly engineered components including camshafts, connecting rods, crankshaft, crown wheel pinion and front axle beam.

 

In the context of a volatile global economy, auto sector demand continues to be dampened as end customers adopt a conservative approach to discretionary spending. Given this ongoing uncertainty, Ahmednagar Forgings is cautious on the near term market but remains optimally positioned to capitalize on its technology and product design capabilities. India is an attractive central hub for OEM global exports and a world class manufacturing base. Continuous investments within India from major OEMs will significantly enhance mid to long term prospects of the domestic auto industry. Over the years, they continue to successfully execute their strategy of expanding the Non-Auto business across the group.

 

Ahmednagar Forgings is confident of achieving an overall higher growth than the industry norm through its focus on new product introductions, addition of significant new contracts during the past year and continued consolidation in the component industry. Management is focused on achieving operating excellence by reinforcing lean manufacturing and quality improvement programs across all production facilities. This will result in further enhancing utilization levels and productivity improvements. The Company has a long track record of successfully partnering with its high profile customer base, which is essential for managing its business going forward.
