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.

GENERAL INFORMATION

 

Kesoram Industries Limited (the Company) is a public company domiciled and incorporated under the provisions of the The Indian Companies Act, 1913. The Company is a flagship company of the B. K. Birla group of companies. The Company is a multiproduct and multi location company. Cement and automobile tyre business are its core businesses and it also has interest in rayon and cellulose paper, cast iron spun pipes and caustic soda and allied chemicals. Its shares are listed on three stock exchanges in India ( Bombay Stock Exchange, National Stock Exchange and Calcutta Stock Exchange) and its Global Depositary Receipts (GDR) are listed on Luxembourg Stock Exchange. The Company markets its automobile tyres under the brand name "Birla Tyres" and cement is marketed under "Birla Shakti" brand

 

IDENTIFICATION OF SEGMENTS

 

The company's operating businesses are organised and managed separately according to the nature of products, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and serves different markets. The Company operates predominantly within the geographical limits of India and accordingly secondary segments have not been considered.

 

GENERAL REVIEW

 

Total Revenues of the Company during the year increased by about 8% to Rs. 60050.000 millions. Both major businesses, Tyres and Cement, recorded revenue growth. Operating margins, however, came under considerable pressure owing to spiralling input costs. These, in turn, impacted financing costs, which too showed a steep increase during the year.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Industry Structure and Developments

 

Tyre

The Indian Tyre Industry is dominated by five major Indian manufacturers — Apollo Tyres, Birla Tyres, Ceat Tyres, JK Tyres and MRF — who together account for more than 85% of the industry turnover. The major market segments of business are replacement, institutional (Original Equipment Manufacturers- ["OEM"] and State Transport Undertakings) and exports. In terms of products, the market is split into two broad segments — Commercial Vehicle Tyres (trucks & buses, light commercial vehicles, agriculture and specialty vehicles) and Personal Vehicle Tyres (car, SUV, motorcycle, scooter and moped).

 

Commercial vehicle tyres continue to constitute the largest segment of the Indian market. A few years back, these tyres constituted more than 80% of the market. Over the last few years, however, the Indian passenger vehicle industry (cars as well as two wheelers) has grown at a pace that outstrips growth of commercial vehicle sales, driven by greater disposable incomes, the rising aspirations of a burgeoning middle class, and the presence of almost every international vehicle manufacturer in India. Growing passenger vehicle sales in the country has meant the proportion of commercial vehicle tyres in the total tyre industry has dropped to a little more than 60% today.

 

A key trend in the Indian market is the shift away from the old technology cross-ply tyres to radials. While radialisation is greater than 95% in passenger vehicles today, in commercial vehicle tyres it is still below 25%. This is, however, picking up and India should soon catch up with the world on this parameter. Growing preference for radials by fleets on account of their better performance, increasing fitment of radials by OEMs and massive investments in increasing capacities for truck and bus radials by industry players seems to be driving this change. Radialisation in the truck and bus segment is forecast to cross 40% in the next few years

The automotive market has a direct correlation with the growth of the Indian economy. The deceleration in the Indian economy has had a negative impact on the automotive industry as a whole. Declining growth of economic activity slows the demand for commercial vehicles something that is evident in India today. Consequently, the overall domestic truck and bus tyre market also saw stagnation in 2011-12 as compared to the previous year, which had seen a growth of over 20%.Sales of passenger vehicles suffered a mid-year slump resulting in lower offtake of tyres by OEMs. Nonetheless, towards the end of the Financial Year 2011-12, indications were that sales were beginning to look up once again.

 

On the cost front, volatility in raw material prices, especially of natural rubber, has been a major factor impacting the fortunes of the Indian Tyre Industry in the previous year. Volatile raw material prices continue to pose the biggest risk for the tyre business

 

Cement

 

China continues to be the world's largest cement producer followed by India. India has the facilities and technology to produce world class cement.

 

The cement industry in India is estimated to have recorded a growth of 6% during the Financial Year 2011-12 as against a growth of 5% during the previous year. This was achieved despite a perceptible slow down in the housing and infrastructure space, the major cement consumer.

 

Cement capacity utilisation in India during the Financial Year 2011-12 is estimated to have been around 75%. New capacities are being continuously added much ahead of the increase in demand. Such additions have tended to impact higher capacity utilizations

 

The capacity utilisation in the country's Southern Region, where the Company's cement plants are located, is estimated to have been only 61% during the Financial Year 2011-12 as against 65% during the previous year. Moreover, a de-growth of 3% in the consumption of cement is reported to have been also recorded in this Region during Financial Year 2011-12.

 

Rayon

The demand for Viscose Filament Yarn (VFY) was subdued during Financial Year 2011-12 owing to severe competition from other competing fibres. The inventory of the industry increased substantially as compared to the previous year. Consequently, the unit price realisations for the industry as a whole came under intense pressure.

 

OUTLOOK

 

Tyre

 

Despite concerns of a slowing economy in the near term and the consequent impact on the automotive sector, the overall outlook for the tyre industry is positive. Infrastructure investments in roads, growing income of the country's middle class, increasing mechanisation of agriculture and the continued ready availability of loan finance for vehicles will act as an impetus to tyre sales.

 

Cement

 

The near term outlook is expected to be bright. This country's per capita cement consumption is only about 180 kg. against the world average of 447 kg. . Moreover, infrastructure growth in the country is still considered to be in a state of infancy. It is a given that infrastructure growth will be dependent on sufficient availability of cement and this will in turn further boost cement demand in the country.

 

Rayon

 

The demand for VFY is likely to improve due to expected change in fashion trends leading to increased consumption of VFY value added products. The price of pulp, a major raw material, is also likely to reduce.

 

Internal Control System and their adequacy

 

The Company has robust internal control systems and continues to seek ways to further strengthen these. The functioning of the control systems operating in the Company are reviewed and reassessed by the management on a continuous basis to ensure their efficacy. During the Financial Year 2011-12, for instance, several measures were initiated to further tone up control systems in the tyre business. These include an eventual roll out of Standard Operating Procedures and finally amalgamating these with an ERP system.

The Company as a whole had 16,695 persons on its rolls as on 31.03.2012.

 

Contingent Liabilities:

 

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made, is termed as a contingent Liability.
