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.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW FY 2012-13

 

The financial year 2012-13, in India, was a year of dampened investor sentiments with the overall investment appetite undergoing a contraction and a stark slowing down in the pace of execution of various new projects. This has majorly come into effect due to dwindling demand conditions rising from global cues, unavailability of key raw materials such as iron ore, coal etc. and projects being affected from regulatory issues such as key project clearances being stalled and land acquisition being made difficult. Deceleration in industrial output and exports weakened India's Economic growth further. The weak macro environment and the slow growth of cost of capital investment in industrial sector remained sluggish. In the year 2012-13, the previous year's 3.6% growth in agricultural sector was also not mirrored in the current year which saw a year-on-year growth of a mere1.8%. This was the effect of a delayed monsoon as compared to the previous year. There by, during the financial year 2012-13 the Indian economy witnessed an unhurried sluggish growth rate of 5% to 5.5%. Year-on-year GDP growth rate in the third quarter was the second lowest in recent year at 4.5%. Simultaneously, the global economy also continued its weak performance and was down from 4% in 2011 to 3.2% in 2012.

 

AUTO INDUSTRY:

 

After a temporary slowdown in 2009, the auto industry bounced back with strong growth for the next 3 years. However, the growth momentum suffered a major setback in FY 2012 -13 on account of the above economic factors. The auto industry suffered the impact of delayed monsoon, rising interest costs, higher fuel prices, volatile labour relations and rupee depreciation.

 

Contrary to estimates made last year, the commercial vehicle industry which has a direct correlation with the economic environment of the country registered a de-growth of2%. The Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) segment grew by 14%, while the Medium and Heavy Commercial [M and HCV) Industry fell by a massive 28%. Protracted ban on the mining industry and decline in industrial and construction sectors resulted in such a sharp decline.

 

The auto component industry, which has been the focus of attention from many global players and investor community, has witnessed demand softening mainly from the OEM and Exports throughout FY 2012 - 13.

 

However, having the advantage of being a low cost country with superior engineering capabilities the Indian auto component industry remains fundamentally robust and well positioned to become the Global Auto Hub. From the current turnover of USD $43 billion, the Indian auto industry is expected to cross turnover of USD $ 113 billion by FY 2020-21(source: AC MA).

 

The Company's Operational Highlights in FY 2012 -13:

 

1. Impervious by the slowing down in the commercial vehicle sector, the Company maintained its leadership position of being the largest supplier of commercial vehicle clutches to major OEM's in India.

 

2. On a standalone basis, the Company recorded sales of Rs. 3407.800 Millions compared to Rs. 3653.700 Millions in the previous year this decline of 8.10% was much lower than the industry drop of 27%. This was possible mainly because of the cushion the Company enjoys from its presence in the after-market segment which grew by 16% and the Exports segment which grew by 30% Y-o-Y On a consolidated basis the Company recorded Sales of Rs. 3990.000 Millions compared to Rs. 4230.000 Millions Sales in the previous year

 

3. On a Standalone basis, EBIDTA reduced by 19% at Rs. 560.000 Millions compared to Rs. 700.000 Millions in the previous year and on a consolidated basis EBIDTA reduced 22% at Rs. 610.000 Millions compared to Rs. 780.000 Millions in the previous year. This was mainly on account of higher input cost resulting out of foreign exchange increases on imported raw materials and certain payroll increase in anticipation of economy growth which unfortunately did not maintain.

 

4. Net Profit was Rs. 270.000 Millions compared to Rs. 420.000 Millions in the previous year on a standalone basis and was Rs. 260.000 Millions compared to Rs. 450.000 Millions on a consolidated basis

 

5. Standalone Net Worth of the Company increased to Rs. 1430.000 Millions from Rs. 1230.000 Millions in the previous year. Consolidated Net Worth increased to Rs. 1530.000 Millions from Rs. 1300.000 Millions in the previous year

 

6. The Board of Directors recommended a dividend of Rs. 2.65 per equity share The Company mainly operates in 3 market segments; OEM, After market COES) and Exports. The graph below gives the contribution of revenue from each of these segments:

 

OEM:

 

The OEM segment which is largely driven by the economic environment of the country suffered a massive decline in demand in FY 2012-13. All the OEM's in India like Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland, Volvo -Eicher and Asia Motor Works had periodic shut down of production facilities on account of weak demand. The M and HCV segment dropped by 28%for FY 2012-13. The 4th Quarter of the year was the worst hit and witnessed a drop of 40%.Given that the Company is a preferred single source supplier of clutches to all OEM's its OEM Sales sharply dropped by 27% in the year.

 

However, on the positive side, the Company known for its superior quality and preferred supplier to all OEM's has started supplies to Bharat Benz, the Indian subsidiary of Daimler Commercial Vehicles Company in Germany. Besides the Company has attracted attention of many global players who are venturing into India and is in discussions with many global players for supply of clutches in India.

 

This combined with the revival in economy expected to come around soon, the Company is in a strong position to capitalize on the opportunities and register a strong growth in the OEM segment.

 

AFTER MARKET:

 

The Aftermarket Segment has acted as a cushion during the vagaries of cyclic nature of the economy and OEM segment. The Company has consistently registered a double digit growth in this segment since the last few years

There are approx 4 million commercial vehicles on the Indian roads. Approx 50% of these belong to the M and, HCV segment. In recent years, with the influx of superior technology commercial vehicles and increased consciousness on quality the demand for genuinere placement parts has grown significantly. With the introduction of BS III norms in October 2010, the Company started supply of these technologically advanced clutches in the OEM segment. Given that the average life of the commercial vehicle clutch is approx 3years, these clutches will now come for replacement from October 2013 onwards. This will result increased revenues and improved margins. Besides the Company plans to enter into the LCV segment in the OEM and After-market segments which will ensure steady growth in this segment.

 

EXPORTS:

 

The Company considers the Export segment to be the next level growth engine. Supportive government policies, availability of reasonably priced talented workforce, availability of raw materials and stable outlook for the industry has made many global automotive companies to look at India for their sourcing needs. Realizing this huge opportunity the Company has been diligently working on development of new products and increase penetration to new markets around the world with a prime focus to offer superior quality clutches at competitive prices. During the year, the Company started supplies to new countries like Singapore, Nigeria, Israel and Saudi Arabia. In addition, through our English and American subsidiaries the Company has started penetration into Eastern European and South American countries. These markets have immense potential and will be a major contributor to our exports growth story. Riding on the back of their efforts, exports grew by 30% compared to the previous year. In addition the Company is in discussions with some global commercial vehicle manufacturers in Europe for potential supply of clutches for their OEM requirement. The Company is confident of this segment's potential and has its plan of reaching Rs. 1000.000 Millions exports turnover by FY 2015 - 16.

 

OVERSEAS SUBSIDIARIES:

 

Setco Automotive (UK) Limited (SAUL)

 

Prolonged subdued economic conditions in Europe have resulted in the entire continent facing testing times. In addition, the Euro zone crises have made conditions deteriorate. Under these testing times, the English subsidiary has managed to maintain its revenue at 2.81 million against 2.73 million in the previous year.

 

Setco Automotive (NA) Inc (SANAI)

 

The subprime financial crises in the American Continent continue to have an adverse impact on the Country's growth. Despite the weak sentiments, the American subsidiary has managed to maintain its top line revenues at $9.18 million and recorded a profit of $0.21million. The American economy has shown some signs of stability and is expected to grow in the immediate future. In addition, the Company is strengthening its marketing setup and venturing into new territories of Mexico and Brazil which has huge potential and acceptability of their "LIPE" clutches.

 

Together both the subsidiaries play a very pivotal role in the Company's vision of becoming a Rs. 10000.000 Millions Company by 2017 – 18.

 

OUTLOOK

 

Going ahead industry participants expect GDP in FY 13-14 to be c. 6%. The RBI remains focused on arresting inflation and is expected to continue following a conservative policy on interest rates. They hope to experience some pick up in manufacturing and mining as the slowdown is appearing to bottom out. Outlook for the global economy is currently a mixed basket which displays areas of concerns as well as some bright spots. With the IMF expecting developing economies to grow relatively strongly at 5.7% for 2014, US is expected to recover faster while the Euro Zone may be relatively slower. With this, the overall global economic growth will remain subdued.

 

India is expected to regain its economic momentum and growth is expected to recover gradually to its high long term potential. The key challenges for the Indian economy this year would be to revive demand, fast track infrastructure projects, improvise electricity generation and increase industrial production. They can relatively be sure of this growth due to the fact that the government will push harder for reforms to keep the India growth story alive.
