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.

EXPORTS:

 

The export turnover for the year was Rs. 239.600 Millions against the previous year’s export of Rs. 271.700 Millions.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS:

The growth of the automobile industry in India moved in sympathy with the growth of the economy. The pace of economic growth in India during the year was less than in the previous years. The macro-economic environment shows strains - arising from delays in implementation of infrastructure projects, global economic uncertainties and above all lack of direction in governance. While the fundamentals remain strong the sentiment for growth has weakened.

PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY

During the year, the company achieved a top line growth of 33 per cent. The sales turnover stood at Rs. 22822.600 Millions compared to the previous year's turnover of Rs. 17156.800 Millions, having sold 30,515 vehicles during the year under report compared to 26,037 vehicles in the year 2010-11.

The light commercial vehicles (LCV) and utility vehicles (UV) business of the Company showed strong growth, an increase in sales by 40 per cent. The tractor business of the Company has also shown good signs of growth. From small beginnings, the numbers sold having increased by 70 per cent.

The Traveller range of vehicles with the common rail engine has been well received. The growth in this product category has been gratifying. The Company has taken various steps to enhance production in order to cater to this growing market. A Euro IV version of the Traveller with further advancement in styling has also been introduced in the market.

 

The Company unveiled the 'Traveller 26' at the Auto Expo in January 2012. This product is the largest known monocoque panel van in the world. Having been evolved from the iconic Traveller vehicle, it represents a big step forward in consolidating the Company's van business. With the 26-seater monocoque Traveller vehicle, the Company is poised to offer to the market a technically most advanced product. It is highly reliable, very sophisticated in terms of technology (common rail engine, high safety features), excellent operating economy, wide variety of usages, in terms of air conditioned tourist bus, modern special school bus, and for application in the segment for transporting mid-sized groups - over medium, small and even long distances. The regular mass production of the Traveller 26 is now taken up.

 

Sale of Trax vehicles improved during the relevant period. The anomaly in the taxation structure relating to Tariff Item 8702.10 remains not fully resolved, and this does adversely affect the cost of the vehicle to the customer, and thus the vehicles' sales volumes.

 

The Trump 40, the small commercial vehicle (SCV), has continued to gain volumes during the relevant period. It is appreciated in the market for its ruggedness, performance and operating economy.

 

The tractor business of the Company is being re­energized. The OX-25 a full service small tractor, has

been especially appreciated both for Orchard usage, and for regular tillage / haulage operations. Steps are initiated to achieve significant growth in this product line.

 

NEW PRODUCT-LINES, NEW COLLABORATIONS, TECHNOLOGIES AND PLANS.

 

During the year, the Company's SUV "Force One" was launched through the new sales vertical, focused on personal vehicles. The initial response from the market has been very gratifying. The customer expectations in the personal vehicles market are substantially different from the customer expectations in the commercial vehicles market. The Company has moved with elaborate planning to ensure compliance with market expectations, to achieve success in this venture. The Company is confidently moving forward to consolidate its position and aspires to grow, in this rapidly growing segment.

 

The Company has enhanced its focus on each of its sales channels. It is investing to improve the management of retail sales through dealers. Both the channel, as also the Company's sales organization, are being ramped up, and energized, with this investment under way. The Company expects, during the year, to establish a number of Company owned show rooms, regional offices and regional training centres etc. at important locations in the country.

 

The Government of Madhya Pradesh has granted an attractive incentive package to the Company for diversification and growth, under the "Mega Project" category. Based on this, the Company has commenced construction activity for the new plant for the production of new generation vehicles. In addition to construction on existing land available with the company, it has taken effective steps to acquire additional land. It is expected that the project for the MPV category of vehicles will be on stream by middle of next year.

 

Under the licensing arrangement with Daimler AG, the technology transfer has already been effected, so also the Company has signed a licensing agreement with M/s. GETRAG for a transaxle, to complement the licence for the MPV. Effective steps for production sing, including the procurement of plant, machinery, equipment, tools, etc. is well under way.

The Company has awarded a contract to Durr Systems GmbH, and its Indian associate company, for a robotized top coat painting line to be commissioned during the course of the current financial year. Additional press shop capacity has been installed at Pithampur to support higher production volumes.

 

The engine facility at Pithampur, as also the engine plants both at Pithampur and Akurdi, Pune, are being modernised and expanded, to cover new generation engines to meet Euro IV and Euro V emission requirements and future technological standards. Appropriate investments at both plants have been made in this regard during the previous year.

 

The Company has drawn up a road map for future engine, transmissions and vehicles in alignment with the expected evolution of the market, in the segments in which the Company operates. All steps to develop products, to acquire the necessary technology, and to implement production facilities are being taken.
