FINANCIAL ANALYSIS AND REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

 

During the financial year 2011-12, The Company reported a loss of Rs. 92.685 Millions against profit of Rs.541.930 Millions during the previous year. The loss was due to adverse economic conditions and some unforeseen disruption of operations, which resulted in loss of production and operational income.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS    

 

The industry structure, development, performance, opportunities, threats and outlook of each activities, internal control systems and industrial relations have been discussed in paragraphs to follow.

 

Tea Division

India was expected to achieve production of 1 billion kgs of tea in 2011, but due to early onset of winter in north-east regions, and rains in southern regions during October to December, industry could produce 988 million kilograms (mkg) of tea in 2011, an increase of 2.3% compared to last year. Production in Kenya and Sri Lanka, the largest exporters, also showed a declining trend due to adverse climatic conditions. However, exports from India during 2011 stood at 193 mkg against 222 mkg in 2010 mainly due to Western sanctions against Iran and political instability in West Asia and North African countries. Increased production along with decrease in export

has created pressure on price of tea but it has been minimized due to surge in domestic demand. Inspite of adverse impact due to labour and political unrest in the gardens located in West Bengal, Tea Division has produced 9.15 million kgs of Tea during the year, which is marginally higher than 9.01 million kgs. during the last year. Exports were made to countries like Sri Lanka, Dubai, Iran and Russia, which has resulted in enhanced export sales during the year. The Division is exploring other potential markets and taking measures to strengthen the existing market and is confident of increasing export sales in coming year. Packet segment is gradually increasing its presence in markets by strengthening branch operations, operational logistics, warehousing facilities and is expected to further penetrate the markets in the coming years by enhancing its marketing tools. However, decrease in price coupled with increase in cost, including wages and other inputs, has created pressure on profit margin of the division. During the current year, with a minimal carry forward and increase in demand the prices are expected to be buoyant, particularly for quality tea. However, increase in wages and other input cost will continue to put pressure on margin. The Directors expects the Division to do relatively well in the coming year. All the tea estates of the Company are ISO 9001:2008 and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) certified.

 

Engineering (MICCO) Division

This Division of the Company is mainly involved in infrastructural work in Steel and Power Sectors. MICCO is a prestigious name in the Steel Sector and enjoys preference as partner by national and global players in the sector. Apart from Gas holders and Reheating Furnaces, where this Division has created a niche, it has also established itself as a trusted name in Casters, Mills and Coke Oven Plants. During the year, the global and national economy has not been encouraging, which resulted in slow projects execution. The performance of The Division was also adversely affected due to fire in one of the sites. In spite of tough market scenario, The division has a healthy order book position. The outlook for Steel Industry is cautious due to the markets continued financial uncertainty and volatility. The global steel sector is expected to grow, although at a lower rate. In India, however, demand for steel from the domestic sector especially for infrastructure is creating a positive outlook as India is expected to perform better than most world economies. Power Sector is also expected to do reasonably well in the coming year. The Division is continuously putting in efforts to improve the growth trajectory through internal assessment and seeking advice from leading consultants in the field. Steps have been taken to reorganize The Division, establish new partners in allied fields, locate new areas of operation and to strengthen he existing collaborations. The initial results of such initiatives are encouraging and the division has already entered into several tie-ups in different products and few are in the pipeline, which shall change the range and profile of The division for a sustainable growth in near future. MICCO Division is equipped to harness the opportunities and expects a stable performance in the coming year.

 

Textile Division

During the year, Spinning Industry witnessed unprecedented and one of the worst crisis in the past several decades. As a normal practice, the Industry built up requisite inventory of good quality cotton during the season as good quality cotton is not adequately available during the off season. However, the prices of raw cotton and other fibers, which had peaked during the end of last year, crashed during the year, resulting in huge losses on account of raw material and finished goods inventory. The said event also led to fall in demand for yarn both in domestic and international markets resulting in huge inventory with the mills, which has put tremendous pressure on yarn prices and margins. As reported last year, the frequent changes in the policy guidelines and intervention of the government has created an uncertainty in the market, which is adversely affecting the outlook and growth prospect of the industry. The Industry looks forward to the government to draw up a long term policy guidelines taking into account the benefit of the entire textile value chain. Apart from the above, the performance of Textile Division was also affected by loss of production at GIS Cotton Mill unit due to labour unrest for two and half months. In North India Spinning Mill unit there was total breakdown of captive power plant along with some machineries, which took about four months to be replaced/repaired, resulting in non-optimal use of production capacity. The production during the year was 15,066 MT, which is lower than last year. The current year also seems to be difficult due to weak global and Indian economy. The cotton crop at 34.700 Millions bales for the year 2011-12 is estimated to be higher than last year. However, due to huge exports the carry forward stock for the next season is expected to be very low. In spite of all odds, The Directors are hopeful of reasonable performance in the current year.

 

Chemical (Waldies) Division

Waldies Division is engaged in the business of manufacture and marketing of Lead Oxides and Stabilisers for PVC Industry. During the year, the Industry witnessed uncertain market environment and slow growth. Inspite of that, this Division has achieved satisfactory increase in profitability. Continuous efforts are being made for further improvement in the operations of the Division. The outlook of the performance for the coming year is reasonable. Waldies Division continues to enjoys ISO 19001 certification for its Quality Management Systems and ISO 14001 certification for its Environment Management Systems and OHSAS 18001 for its occupational health and safety management systems.

 

Trading Division

During the year, the turnover of this Division was marginally low compared to previous year primarily due to fall in sale of cement paints. The Division now owns a Brand known by the name ‘GILLARCO’ and has plans to market and sell different products under the said Brand name in the future. It has plans to expand its operational base by foraying into marketing and selling of Abrasive Sheets in automotives and decorative Segments.

 

Property Division

Increase in occupancy has yielded higher rental income for property Division for the year. The Division has a Fire Safety Policy, which is reviewed from time to time. Latest fire fighting equipments are in place in ‘Gillander House’ and fire safety norms are strictly adhered to.
