MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:
INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW:
The year (October 2011
– September 2012) began on a cautious note with GDP falling continuously since
quarter ending September 2010. The GDP grew 6.1% in the first quarter and
continued to perform discouragingly 5.3% in the second quarter and 5.5% in the
third quarter in the succeeding quarters. Increasing fuel and food prices,
coupled with economic uncertainty and sluggish exports, resulted in the lowest
GDP growth witnessed in the Q2 (quarter ending March 2012). However, towards
the end of the year, the growth story painted a slightly more reassuring
picture with government focusing on reforms to regain investor confidence.
After decelerating
for over four successive quarters from 9.2% y-o-y in Q4 of FY 2010-11 to 5.3%
in Q4 of FY 2011-12, the fiscal year 2011-12 closed with a GDP of 6.5%, much
lower than the preceding two years. However, GDP growth was marginally higher
at 5.5% in Q1 of FY 2012-13. The slight improvement in GDP growth in Q1 of FY
2012-13 was primarily driven by growth in construction and supported by better
than expected growth in agriculture.
While headline
inflation related to the wholesale price index (WPI) hovered around 9.5% at the
start of the year, it gradually came down in the succeeding months to 7% levels
primarily due to the receding demand from consumers. Towards the end of the
year, inflation rose to 7.8% (September 2012) due to strong consumer demand.
Amid growing inflation, RBI has clearly stated that its efforts will be to rein
in inflation and support growth.
Index of
Industrial Production (IIP), an indicator of industrial growth, showed a meagre
growth of 2.9% in year ended March 2012. While the power sector showed a strong
growth of 8.9% (Y-o-Y), mining sector de-grew 2% as a consequence of mining ban
imposed on several states in India. The manufacturing sector, which contributes
75.5% to the IIP index, saw a modest growth of 3%, largely due to sluggish
economic growth. The CMIE (Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy) however has
estimated that in FY 2012-13 (April- March) the industrial output grew at 5.1%,
which is lower than the preceding 7-year average of 7.9%, but significantly
higher than the growth witnessed in FY 2012-13.
The Indian
currency weakened sharply during the year, touching levels of Rs. 57 against the
US dollar and continues to be weak at Rs.53 levels during the end of the year.
The rupee over the past year has been volatile. While weakening rupee helped
the IT sector and exporters, it adversely impacted the trade deficit, which
rose to US$ 189.7 Billion in the year ending March 2012, compared to the
deficit of US$ 130.6 Billion in the corresponding period the year before.
Rising crude oil prices, coupled with drying-up of FDI smothered the rupee
against the dollar. However, the rupee is expected to strengthen following the
government’s focus on reforms, breaking the prevailing culture of policy
impasse and low investor confidence. Sluggish economic growth affected each and
every industry and the Commercial Vehicle (CV) industry was no exception; it posted
negative growth in the year.
INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS:
Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicles (M
and HCV):
(GVW above 7.5T):
India stands as
the fifth largest manufacturer of commercial vehicle globally. M and HCV saw a
strong growth in the first half (October 2011 – March 2012) of the year and a
sharp decline in second half (April – September 2012). While production in the
first half grew 12.4% over the corresponding period in the previous year,
second half de-grew 17.4%, making it an overall 2.4% de-growth. In Q2 (January
– March 2012) 111,982 vehicles were produced, which was a historical high;
69,290 vehicles were produced in Q3 (April – June 2012) which was the lowest
quarterly production since January 2010. Overall, 351,543 vehicles were
produced during the year, which is 2.4% lower than 360,358 units during the
previous year. M and HCV Domestic sales posted de-growth of 1% to reach 328,881
units, whereas exports declined 18% over the previous year to reach 24,508
units. While the haulage truck production slowed down in line with slowdown in
the economy, tipper production dropped (-10%) much more than the market drop,
due to mining ban in several states.
OUTLOOK:
The domestic auto
component industry has experienced healthy growth, led by strong domestic
demand. Both the auto and auto component market is expected to witness sizeable
growth. The global auto-component market is expected to be worth US$ 2,243
Billion in 2020.
COMPANY OVERVIEW:
Automotive Axle
Limited (AAL) is the largest independent manufacturer of Rear Drive Axle
Assemblies in the country. The Company was incepted in 1981, as a joint venture
of Kalyani Group and Meritor Inc., USA (formerly the automotive division of
Rockwell International Corporation). It is equipped with highly specialized
manufacturing processes, and has its facilities located at Mysore, Panthnagar
and Noida.
OPPORTUNITIES:
The Company is
already exploring opportunities in the CV market with its ‘Green Axle’ (2-Speed
Axle) and the hub-reduction axle, which were launched in a phased manner in FY
2011 and FY 2012. The management’s focused effort to strengthen its presence in
brakes, aftermarket and trailer business, the Company foresees significant
business opportunities, going forward.
