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.

Company Overview
Company is engaged
in the processing of agro based products like rice and wheat allied products
like Atta, Maida, Suzi etc. Usher regards ‘green’ as an inspiration of
‘agricultural prosperity’ and this inspiration has led to the name Usher back
in 1996. The main aim was to USHER the Indian agricultural growth concentrated
efforts.
The Company was
incorporated in 1996 by first generation promoters Dr. V.K. Chaturvedi and Mr.
Manoj Pathak (the ‘Promoters’) and is listed on BSE Limited (‘BSE’) and
National Stock Exchange (‘NSE’). The Company’s rice and wheat mills are located
in the states of Uttar Pradesh (‘UP’) and Bihar with current capacity of
543,600 tons per annum (‘TPA’) for rice and 75,000 TPA for wheat and with
ongoing expansion the capacity will reach to 1,081,440 TPA for rice and 125,000
TPA for wheat by end of calendar year 2013. In addition, Company is also in the process of setting up a pulses
processing mill which is the part of current expansion with a capacity of

flour mill with a capacity of 23,100 TPA in the state of UP. Over a period of time

by using the latest technologies for agricultural processing every single time.
The production amplified leading to the name and fame of the company in the
national and international market. The diversified product range got a brand
name “Rasoi Raaja” that was synonymous with superiority, quality and

Company
Operational Performance
Usher from the
very first year of its operation is concentrating on the Non basmati rice
segment since the basmati sector is already fully saturated and offers no scope
for expansion. The Non basmati Rice industry in India is still much unorganized
as compared to the Basmati Rice industry. The organized Players are not even
commanding 1% of overall market and this offers ample scope for players like
Usher to grow and expand in non-basmati rice segment.
The crux of this
sector lies in managing ever increasing demand and accessing the market at the
correct time. Demand in this sector has never been a concern since it
constitutes the basic staple diet of India making it a very inelastic product.
The Company has put up efficient logistic and supply chain management system to
effectively cater to this market. The company has been continuously researching
on the way to increase the value and quality of the rice which is backed by our
high quality research team. The directors believe that sustained investment in
technology, innovations, consumer communication and continued focus on market
development will benefit the business in creating long term value. The company
has set up a rice fortification plant, the technology for which has been
provided by PATH – a non-profit organization. Fortified rice prevents loss of
iron and vitamins from rice during the milling process and is envisaged to be
sold to the mid-day meal projects of various states.
In order to
utilize the waste rice husk produced in its milling plants, the company has set
up 16 MW rice-husk based cogeneration power plant under its subsidiary company,
Usher Eco Power Limited (‘Usher Eco’) in UP which started its commercial
operations on 7th November 2012 which sells power externally under a power
purchase agreement (‘PPA’) with Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited
(‘UPPCL’).
