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.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

On an overall basis, the capital goods industry showed a negative growth during FY12. While the order book showed healthy improvement in some of the business segments, such as low end standard machines; the high value machines and project investments continued to get postponed, leading to a significantly decreased order booking figures. Similarly, the actual collection of these machines, at the time of delivery by full payment, were deferred in many cases, which resulted in lower revenues and high inventories.

 

The Tipper hydraulics business posted better business results, compared to the previous year, on account of increased demand for tipper trucks fitted with underbody tipping kits.

 

The Company has taken various steps to increase the spread of its products and solutions’ offerings, to other (over and above the automotive) industry sectors, in order to maintain its growth. This will reduce their dependency on the automotive segment. Accordingly, the Company is continuing to focus on the new customers and players viz: in aerospace, earth moving and construction, railway and other allied engineering sectors. TAL’s knowledge and capabilities in precision engineering, machining, fabrication and integration of complex and heavy equipment systems will be leveraged, to the maximum extent to secure business from these new sectors.

 

The contracts signed with The Boeing Company earlier, for supply of Hybrid Titanium Floor Beams, for its 787 Dreamliner airplanes, has undergone significant changes in configuration of the product requirements, due entirely to the Boeing Company. The modified agreements for the Advanced composite floor beams (ACFP) was re-negotiated and signed off during the year. Accordingly, new set of facilities and other project activities are being progressed in line with the mutually agreed project schedule.

 

OPERATIONS

 

Despite the economic slow down and corresponding market situation, the Company was able to neutralize this slow down and post a modest growth in the top line through tapping of new opportunities.

 

The Company sold 186 standard machining centers in the FY 12. The Company continued to serve the construction industry customers like Telcon and Ashok Leyland and John Deere etc. Several new important projects to provide manufacturing solutions for a number of industries such as Jigs and Fixtures, Paint-shop and Assembly Lines for the aerospace, railways and construction machinery sectors. Significant progress was also achieved on large projects like the Paint Shop for Tata Motors, Dharwad, pre-paint shop from AMW and C130 Aircraft Empennage Assembly from Tata Lockheed Martin project.

 

The Company launched a variety of new products. In Car Parking System, Over Ground Puzzle Parking System (OGP) was launched, targeting customer in commercial complexes, hotels and retail outlet etc. Similarly, enhancing the hydraulics offerings, the Company brought out a front end tipping kit and a new Underbody tipping kit. The supply of these kits has been started to TML. The Company also ramped up its supply support to TML for their Armored Vehicle Program. It completed the delivery of 52 Armored Hulls to TML during the financial year.

 

As mentioned earlier, the modified construction of the TAL Nagpur facility to undertake the production of new advanced composite floor beam project have been pursued during the year quite actively, in line with the customers requirement. Boeing and TAL are working together to build-up the engineering and technological, facilities and the factory set-up for their new changed configuration. The company expects to start the production and supply of metallic fittings for the initial sets of beams being produced by Boeing at their development center (ADC) during FY 12-13. The manufacture and supply of the complete floor beam are likely to pick up in FY 13-14.

 

PERFORMANCE

 

Inspite of delay in finalization of many Project Business Orders, the total income of the Company is of Rs.2634.000 millions, an increase by 5% as compared to the previous year. However, the profitability was affected, due to increase in operating cost, on account of increase in input costs, as well as the employee and other expenses. This increase was also due to multiple strategic growth initiatives, undertaken by the Company to increase future business potential in line with the strategic growth plan of the Company. Despite these costs increases, the Company was able to report profit before tax of Rs.130.900 millions and Profit after tax of Rs.105.300 millions.

 

During the year, the Company has achieved an order booking (excluding excise duty) of over Rs.2460.300 millions, showing an increase of 15 % over the previous year.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The Company plans to tap the opportunities provided by the Auto Component sector to manufacture the “production ready high speed standard machines” The Features provided in these machines include: high speed pallet changing systems, high rapids, high spindle speeds for faster material removal. The thrust on expanding the new product portfolio, through the NPI Program will continue, with introduction of three new models in Standard Machines during the next year. The Target industry segments also include, Pumps and Valves industry, Aerospace and the Heavy engineering industry. Customer awareness about TAL will be further enhanced through various customer interaction workshops, seminars and exhibitions.

 

The Company is actively pursuing the serious enquiries, received for paint shops, conveyor systems, robotic welding cells and fixtures in automotive, construction and farm equipment sectors. These enquiries and proposals cover both the existing customers as well as the new customers in new segments.

 

The additional growth avenues identified in the aerospace tooling market are progressing well. Tipper hydraulics business will be augmented by the addition of new front end kits to the product portfolio, and also by increasing retail business through SPD.

 

While the Company will fully support TML by aligning the new products with TML new tipper model range. New focus will be brought by targeting on Non -TML OEMs for the U/B cylinder Kits
