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.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS

 

 

The year 2011-12 was a year of two halves. While the first half was relatively stable, the second half was impacted by the woes of an unstable global economy. They had to deal with rising input costs, falling demand, foreign currency volatility, soaring inflation and high interest rates. The Indian economy after recording a GDP growth of 8.4 per cent during the previous year saw a decline to a level of 6.9 per cent during 2011-12. SRF, on its part, kept working at improving its internal efficiencies and charting its own growth path amidst the global turmoil.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS OF SRF’S FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

The Management Discussion and Analysis of the company’s financial condition and results of operations contains forward looking statements regarding future events and future results that are based on the previous year’s performance, current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industries in which it operates and the beliefs and assumptions of its management.

 

 

BUSINESSES

 

SRF has a portfolio of established businesses in industrial intermediates. It classifies its main businesses as: Technical Textiles Business (TTB), Chemicals and Polymers Business (CPB) and Packaging Films Business (PFB).

 

 

TECHNICAL TEXTILES BUSINESS

 

Reflecting 15.21 per cent year on year growth, from Rs. 14452.900 millions in 2010 - 11 to Rs. 16651.900 millions in 2011–12 Technical Textiles Business (TTB) continues to be SRF’s largest business segment, contributing over 47 per cent to the total sales of the Company.

 

 

TYRE CORD REINFORCEMENT

 

The Nylon Tyre Cord Fabrics (NTCF) business segment has been a foundation business for SRF for several decades. In the year gone by whilst the first half of the year saw robust demand in the transportation sector reflecting the healthy growth of the Indian economy, the second half was relatively subdued. Apart from the sluggishness of the economy affecting the transportation sector in the second half of the year, the demand was also affected by the Supreme Court judgment in relation to the Mining Industry, which saw considerable population of the trucks becoming idle for a significant period. The business was also adversely affected on account of significantly higher commodity prices, particularly for chemicals and energy costs, which it was not in a position to pass on fully to its customers.

 

SRF invested in Polyester Tyre Cord Fabrics (PTCF) a few years back. This segment which caters to the radial tyre segment of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles is beginning to find its feet both in the domestic and overseas markets.

 

It is believed that in times to come the foundation being built now could be used as a launching pad.

 

In addition, the company has initiated development of new products in the Polyester Industrial Yarn space, which would enable it to improve its profitability and widen its portfolio.

 

 

BELTING FABRIC

 

SRF has been a dominant player with over 60 per cent of the market share in the Belting Fabric segment in India and has a significant global presence, being the second largest manufacturer in the world. This business segment was also adversely affected in the second half of the year on account of the fall in mining activity in the country and freezing of key infrastructure and power projects.

 

In the overseas markets, the volumes were adversely affected in the last quarter with the slowing down of the world economy.

 

The company’s South African subsidiary, which posted excellent results in the previous year, had a difficult time during the year due to negative demand in the mining sector. This was largely because the customer industry had put their investments on hold for fear of nationalisation of mines in South Africa.

 

To offset the fall in demand in the domestic South African market, the company has made inroads into Latin America, a step which would help it to offset the risk in the longer term.

 

 

COATED AND LAMINATED FABRICS

 

The Laminated Fabrics Business has started generating positive cash flows having commenced production in Q4’2009-10 and has established itself well in the signage market. Towards the end of the financial year, it had reached full capacity utilization and is now considering the expansion of the plant to build a strong position in the coming year.

 

The new state-of-the-art Coated Fabric line at Gummidipoondi with a capacity of 170 lakh square meter per annum has commenced production. The products have been well accepted by the market. This facility offers a wide range of products including lacquered tarpaulins, fabrics for tensile structures, awnings, auto-canopies, hangar covers etc. In addition, Poly Urethane (PU) Coated Fabrics have also been introduced for several applications. SRF which offers the widest range of products in this segment is poised to capture a major market share in India and the coming year would see increased efforts to build this segment significantly.

 

 

INDUSTRIAL YARN BUSINESS (IYB)

 

With the commissioning of the Polyester Industrial Yarn project a few years ago, SRF is able to offer a basket of Industrial yarns (nylon and polyester) for conveyor belts, transmission belts, hoses, ropes, geo-textile applications, fishing nets, stitching threads etc. SRF continues to enjoy a significant market share in the critical segments of the industry.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

The NTCF segment of Technical Textiles Business, the largest business of SRF, mainly caters to bias tyres for bus and truck segment. The current radialisation in this segment is 18 per cent only. It is estimated that radialisation would touch a level of around 30 per cent by 2013-14 and 50 per cent by 2017-18. It is projected to stabilise thereafter, as has been observed in other developing economies of the world.

 

With infrastructure and mining sectors expected to grow substantially in the coming years, tyres for ‘Off the Road’ (OTR) vehicles, which are already witnessing a high growth, are expected to grow in double digits on a sustainable basis for many years. These tyres consume large amount of NTCF per tyre, thus ensuring a reasonable growth rate.

 

It is, therefore, expected that in absolute quantity terms, the demand for NTCF would grow marginally over the next five years, though the application portfolio would show a shift from buses and trucks to two- wheelers, OTR tyres and tractor tyres.

 

The passenger car (PC) tyre radialisation in India has reached a mature level now (over 90 per cent), which predominantly uses Polyester Tyre Cord Fabric (PTCF) as carcass for reinforcement. The car industry is expected to grow substantially in the coming years and, therefore, offers an opportunity to SRF to provide PTCF fabrics for radial tyres.

 

Currently, SRF is the only company in India to produce PTCF and is well positioned to benefit from the opportunity. Leveraging its relationship with the global majors on account of its Nylon business, SRF has made progress in commercialising its products.

 

In Belting Fabrics, given the expectation of growth in the domestic mining industry and infrastructure, the outlook is positive in India. This augurs well for SRF, which has over 60 per cent share of this business in the domestic market. In addition, with the demand for commodities continuing to grow at a high rate globally, mining is expected to be on a growth path and this would offer opportunities to SRF.

 

Coated Fabrics and Laminated Fabrics through the investments made and being planned are expected to grow substantially over the next few years to become the second largest segment in SRF’s Technical Textiles Business. With changing lifestyles, urbanisation, and massive investments in infrastructure, it is expected that products such as signages, awnings and hangar covers would see a double digit growth. With the increasing usage of tensile structures with fabrics, as evidenced in stadiums, homes and exhibition centres, the high end products are expected to grow in double digits too.

 

SRF is one of the first large sector companies to foray into this area in a significant way and it is expected that the

Company would be able to establish a leadership position in a short time. With state-of-the-art facility, it would also have the option of considering exports, in addition to servicing the domestic markets.

 

 

CHEMICALS AND POLYMERS BUSINESS

 

The manufacturing operations of SRF’s Chemicals Business are located at Bhiwadi, in Rajasthan, about 70 kilometres from New Delhi. The business derives its revenue from the sale of fluorine-based refrigerants, chloromethanes, fast-growing specialty fluorochemicals and engineering plastics. It also includes receipts from the sale of CERs generated by destruction of the greenhouse gas Hydrofluorocarbon-23 (HFC-23) under the Kyoto Protocol.

 

During the first half of 2011-12, the Chemicals Business posted record performance with YoY sales growing by 94 per cent and EBIDT by 147 per cent. However, during the second half, performance was relatively muted, closing the year with an overall YoY sales growth of 70 per cent and EBIDT of 107 per cent. The business faced challenges from a slowdown in the pharmaceutical sector and startup of additional capacities in chloromethanes, which affected margins.

 

The Fluorospecialities Business continued to grow in line with strong market demand with sales growth of 48 per cent and EBIDT growth of 66 per cent in FY 2011-12.

 

During the year, the businesses continue to extend its strategic tie-ups with global agro and pharma majors whilst meeting their product specification through technological innovation in the existing product portfolio.

 

 

REFRIGERANTS

 

Refrigerants are primarily used as a cooling medium in the air-conditioning and refrigeration industry. SRF continues to be one of the larger and more credible players in the industry globally. It is the domestic market leader with about 40 per cent share. Exports of the business are spread across 60 countries worldwide, and account for over 60 per cent of the volumes produced.

 

SRF’s portfolio of refrigerants includes hydrochlorofluorocarbon-22 (HCFC-22), the new-generation refrigerant hydrofluorocarbon-134a (HFC-134a), and the refrigerant blend R404a. The company is proactively addressing the expected phase-out of HCFCs from 2013 onwards under the Montreal Protocol by investing in an HFC-134a/125 plant in Dahej, Gujarat.

 

The market for refrigerants is estimated to grow at about 10-15 per cent per annum. The outlook for refrigerant market augurs well for SRF which continues to be the market leader in a fast-growing, challenging and competitive landscape populated by global majors.

 

 

CHLOROMETHANES

 

SRF's main products in the chloromethanes business are methylene chloride and chloroform. While chloroform is internally consumed for manufacturing HCFC-22, methylene chloride is sold primarily in the domestic market.

 

In 2011-12, the chloromethanes segment made a significant contribution to the business’ profitability, despite substantial fresh domestic production capacity. While the additional capacity is expected to substitute imports in the medium to longterm, it has resulted in dropping profitability during the second half of 2011-12, and cast a shadow over 2012-13 as well. A soft pharmaceutical industry (end-user for methylene chloride) was not in a position to pick up the additional quantities, putting pressure on margins. These competitive pressures, the chloromethanes business has successfully remained profitable, and hopes to remain so through 2012-13 as well. Strong relationships with customers, high product quality, efficient production, and short delivery lead times continue to be key differentiators vis-à-vis imports.

 

 

FLUOROSPECIALITIES

 

Building on its presence in the fluorine chemistry industry for almost two decades, the Company had entered the space of specialty fluorine chemistry in 2003-04. The focus has been to leverage the Company’s expertise to produce intermediates and advanced intermediates, which are used to manufacture Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and agrochemicals by its customers. Fluorine-based specialty chemicals are finding increasing usage in the fields of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and performance products.

 

To take on the process development for new molecules at the scale necessary to support the business’ growth plans, the strength of R&D and process engineering have been significantly augmented, in terms of people, infrastructure and management. Today, a number of projects are in various stages of construction. The business is closely engaged with buyers for most of these products.

 

 

ENGINEERING PLASTICS

 

Engineering Plastics, a group of polymers comprising polyamides (N6 and N66), poly butylenethalate (PBT) and poly carbonates (PC) continues to build its volume and share. Except for the four-wheel segment all other segments showed robust growth. The margins, however, remained under pressure due to a competitive market situation and exchange rate impact.

 

SRF had started a dedicated product development centre last year which helped it complete some key product development projects and complete its product range. The business continued to enhance its skills in R&D and new product development, thereby reducing the cost of processing and developing high end grades. The Company’s development Centre also received recognition by the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR) during the year.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

The Chemicals Business has been on the growth path over the past few years mainly driven by strong commodity upswing and R&D led innovations in speciality products. The commodity business mainly consisting of refrigerants has sustained its domestic market leadership while fluorospeciality business expanded its overseas presence by adding more volumes to existing customer base. Going forward the focus on new generation refrigerants along with a bouquet of specialty products driven by leading edge in-house R&D technology will continue.

 

During 2012-13, the business is expected to derive value from new products manufactured at its Dahej facility. In addition, the investment in a new R-134a/125 plant in Dahej will come up at the end of 2013-14. The upcoming plant will be backward integrated with a global size HF plant to meet the production need.

 

In Fluorospecialities, the business is expected to improve its profitability from commercialisation of a range of speciality products coming out of Dahej. There is a sizable market available for these products and the business is continuing to build on its reputation and credibility with the global agrochemical and pharmaceutical majors. These niche product offerings are expected to establish the Fluorospeciality business as a key value driver for the future growth of the Chemicals Business.

 

 

PACKAGING FILMS BUSINESS

 

In financial year 2011-12, the market demand-supply was far worse than what the industry had forecast in the beginning of the year. The shrinking of domestic market by around 30 per cent due to a ban on plastic laminates in Gutka packaging, coupled with start-up of many new capacities, both in India and abroad, resulted in an oversupply situation. This led to crashing of prices resulting in significant erosion in margins and business profitability. Overall, the business EBIT fell from Rs 3476.000 millions in 2010-11 to Rs 160.000 millions.

 

To hedge against this volatility they increased their exports sales by around 18 per cent and ventured into value-added product variants. They also won the prestigious EPCES Export Award for Best non SSI SEZ unit for Plastic Products for the 5th consecutive year. Operationally, all the plants operated well, with the Indore plant setting global benchmarks both in production and line speed whilst Kashipur enhanced its capability as a swing plant. On the growth front, work on the two international projects at Thailand and South Africa started. Both the units are scheduled to be commissioned during 2013-14.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

They expect the global demand for polyester films to continue growing at around 6 per cent. However, this will not be sufficient to make up for the disproportionate capacity additions in China and India which have created an oversupply situation. They expect this situation to continue in 2012-13 leading to continued pressure on margins. Low margins would discourage new investments, which should balance the demand supply situation from 2013–2014.

 

They believe that in the coming year, companies with low cost and global reach will have advantage over the competition. Thus, SRF’s strategy for the year will be to focus on increasing exports, enhance product offerings to include value added products and to work towards timely and cost effective global expansions. Although they witness cyclicality in this business, they believe that the long term prospects are encouraging.

PRESS RELEASE:

 

Chemicals Business of SRF wins the prestigious Deming Prize

 

Gurgaon, 9th October 2012: The Chemicals Business of SRF has joined a select group of organisations globally to win the coveted Deming Prize. Awarded by the Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE), the Deming Prize award is considered the Nobel Prize equivalent in the world of quality. The winners were declared by the Deming Prize Committee in Tokyo, today. Earlier in 2004, SRF had earned the distinction of becoming the first tyre cord company outside Japan to win the award.

 

Ashish Bharat Ram, Managing Director, SRF said, “We are proud to have been bestowed this recognition for the second time in SRF. The award reaffirms our commitment to continue to serve our customers efficiently. I wholeheartedly commend the untiring efforts of my colleagues who have been continuously learning and applying the principles and methods of quality management to achieve all round business success.”

 

SRF’s Chemicals Business is engaged in the manufacture of refrigerants, chloromethanes and fluorine based specialty chemicals. The business employs over 600 people, with the manufacturing plant located at Bhiwadi in Rajasthan.

 

Named after Dr. Deming, the man who taught the Japanese about quality, the Deming Prize is highly valued as recognition of outstanding practice of TQM (Total Quality Management) in the pursuit of the strategic objectives of a company. The Deming Prize is awarded through a rigorous process. A diagnosis is carried out in the year prior to the application for the prize. Detailed documents of the company, including improvements made over many years, are examined by Japanese counselors. A business that qualifies at this stage is subjected to a rigorous on-site examination by a group of TQM experts from Japan

The profitability of the company too reflected the economic conditions on year-on-year basis with its PAT reducing from Rs. 111.000 millions to Rs. 890.000 millions, a decline of 19 per cent during the same period. The unaudited financial results of SRF were taken on record by SRF’s Board in a meeting held today.
