INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
The current downturn
provides an opportunity to push ahead with reforms to accelerate growth, says
the latest India Development Update report released by the World Bank. The
report says that the adverse effects of rupee depreciation are likely to be
offset by the gains in the exports performance due to improved external
competitiveness. Since May this year, the local currency has depreciated
substantially and fell to a record level of Rs 68.85 to a dollar on August, 28.
A stagflation like
situation appears to have arisen as inflation jumped to an eight month high of
6.46 % for the month of September. It is up from 6.10 % in August. Growth
continues to be muted with factory output plunging to 0.6 % in August.
Onion prices have risen nearly 300 % from last September. Vegetables cost
nearly 90 % more than they did last year. Wake up to the economic contribution
of slum dwellers. They contribute more than 7.5 % to the country’s gross
domestic product, according to a recent study conducted in 50 top cities.
136000 estimated number
of jobs created during the second quarter of the current financial year. 50000
estimated number of additional jobs in the field of corporate social
responsibility in the coming years.
The International
Finance Corporation expects to come out with its rupee linked bonds issue
before the end of 2013 as a part of its plan to raise $ 1 billion. The Apple
iPhone 5c (Rs 41900 for 16 GB variant) and 5s (Rs 53500 for 16GB variant) has
been launched in India from 1st November.
The Land Acquisition
Act to provide just and fair compensation to farmers will come into force from
January 1 next year, said Rural Development Minister Jairam Ramesh. The Act
replaces a 119 year old registration. The Securities and Exchange Board of
India has approved the trading of currency futures on the Bombay Stock
Exchange. The exchange plans to launch the currency futures platform with
advanced trading technology by the end of November.

BUSINESS
OPERATIONS:
Revenue from
Operations grew moderately by 4% over the previous year, though volumes remain
flat. The year witnessed continued turbulence on the business front with
inflation continuing to rule high, leading to high interest rates and dampened
consumer enthusiasm to buy automobiles.
The Company had to
continue facing the challenges of a sustained high inflation on input prices.
The high input costs, in the context of resistance from customers to adequate
compensation, led to erosion in margins.
The company has
completed the compounding facility at Manesar to cater to the requirements of
the Northern market, with an initial capacity of 6000 MTPA. This facility was
commissioned in March 2013 and is expected to contribute to growth of the
company during the current year.
The Pultrusion
division has been only achieving marginal performance during the recent years
and hence it was decided to close down operations of this division.
As part of
realignment of capacity, it was decided to curtail production at Pudukkottai.
Consequently it was decided to sell the two Wind Mills which the Company had
established. The proceeds from the sale were utilised for funding the Manesar
facility and into operations.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT
BUSINESS SCENARIO
The demand from
Automotive sector started showing signs of weakness right from the beginning of
the year and the sluggishness in demand persisted throughout the year. By the
year-end, the drop in demand was so significant that it eroded all the volume
gains the Company made in the first three quarters of the period. A combination
of overall sluggishness in the economy, political uncertainty, high interest
rates affected the demand resulting in production drop at the OEM end.
The company's risk
mitigation strategy of expanding the OEM basket continued to benefit the
business, reducing their dependency on any one OEM. However input costs went up
significantly and the raw material inflation was close to 10% on year on year
comparison.
COMPANY
PERFORMANCE
The year started
slowly, and demand off-take was impacted by labour issues at a major OEM and
inflationary raw material prices. In spite of slow demand, they were able to
sustain a 10% year on year volume growth for the first three quarters of the
year. However the severity of the slowdown, steep drop in production at certain
OEMs hit them hard in the last quarter and they managed to end the year only
with marginal growth. Their share of presence in passenger cars went up from
3.8 Kg/Car to 4.10 Kg/Car.
1) Operations
The volumes went
up only marginally. However they were able to record an increase of about 5% on
top line. Production was optimized and Pudukkottai operations were restructured
to get better efficiency. They commissioned the new facility in Manesar,
Haryana and they are confident that this would get them additional growth in
the North region.
2) Optimization
Initiatives
Initiatives to
optimize formulations and processes were reviewed continuously for remaining
competitive in the market and to offset the impact of increased raw material
costs.
3) Technology
Upgradation
The technical capability
and tools for new development activities were augmented. New techniques to
ensure achievement of desired properties and effects and optimization of
formulations were provided. These investments and tools would go a long way in
the company being able to face the cost pressure and application demand
challenges from the OEM's going forward.
4) HR and IR
The manufacturing
facilities are being reviewed for production efficiency, process improvement
and inventory management. Training and tools are being provided to the
personnel to improve overall productivity.
5) Business
Initiatives
The strategy of
the last 2 years to mitigate risk by diversification across OEMs is being
extended. Positive outcome of this is the entry into one of the more recent transnational
OEMs. This should contribute significantly to new business in the current year.
Our efforts in
appliances are slowly showing movement. They have received a positive response
from major white goods transnational for using their compounds in place of ABS.
The other small appliances are also seeing greater penetration. These beginning
will definitely give them more business in the future from the white
goods/appliance segment.
Alternate raw
material sources, formulation optimization, production lot sizes and
manufacturing efficiency did help them to bring down to some extent the huge
impact of RM inflation.
They consolidated
their market in FIBC segment in the trading activity. They are also seeing
traction in bigger markets like BOPP/CPP film and the nascent market of
agricultural films.
FINANCIAL
PERFORMANCE
Revenues
Revenue from
operations grew by (4%) over the previous year though the volumes grew only
marginally. Trading volumes also dipped during the current year, reflecting the
overall difficult economy and business climate.
The pultrusion
division has been only achieving marginal performance during the recent years
and hence it was decided to close down operations of this division.
Input Costs
After some
stability in the PP prices during the first quarter of the year, the prices
headed upward continuously, leading to a severe increase in input costs. Though
some much overdue price corrections were obtained from customers from the
middle of the year, the continuous increase in PP prices, negated the benefit.
There was no
shortage of power at Jejuri, however the power tariff was increased by the
utilities. In line with the decision to curtail production at Pudukkottai, the use
of the Wind Mills power was of negligible benefit and hence both the Wind
Energy Generators were disposed during the year.
Insurance Claim in respect of the Cyclone Thane at Puducherry last year
was settled.
Financial Costs
Interest rates
remained fairly stable during the year, though there was an increase in
absolute amounts largely due to higher working capital utilization. The
proceeds of the sale of the WEG were utilized to repay the debt contracted for
it, thereby saving on interest costs. The volatility of the Rupee vis a vis the
Dollar, faced during the year, was better than the previous year's steep
depreciation. Consequent to the continued strain in the operations, rating
agency ICRA Ltd, downgraded the Company's rating both for the short term from
A2 to A3+ and the long term from LBBB to LBBB(-).
ONGOING
INITIATIVES AND FUTURE OUTLOOK
a) Only if the
trend in increasing offtake of vehicles is sustained will the volume of tonnage
increases materialise. Such increased volumes and management of supply chain
and logistics should help in bettering margins during the current year subject
of course to the price behaviour of Polypropylene and other crude oil based
inputs.
b) New commercial
vehicles call for increased usage of PP compounds on interior parts and the
Company is already working with major companies in this segment to benefit from
this approach.
c) Control of
receivables and inventory and improved process efficiency, should also
contribute to the reduction of working capital requirement leading to a
reduction in interest costs.
However, the overall short term economic
scenario looks pessimistic and could have an impact on the offtake of vehicles
and consequent growth of the auto industry.
