DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS

 

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PRODUCTS

 

The Company's IT Distribution Business experienced mixed results during Financial Year 12-13. Growth during H1 was flat while a double digit Revenue growth was captured in the 2nd half of the fiscal.

 

Consumer and stock-and-sell Commercial products' demand remained muted throughout the year, with individual business growth coming in from change in vendor's market-share or the Company's gain in authorized territory or exclusive relationship with a vendor.

 

Progressive closures of long delayed large Projects in Enterprise and Government space during H2, where they were successful in partnering with National System Integrators, allowed them to grow revenue significantly, especially in the Infrastructure business space.

 

Capital spending on IT infrastructure by commercial establishments, by way of adopting new technology or going in for asset refresh was selective and conservative. This impacted the entire space of stock-and-sell and small/mid-sized back-to-back business.

 

Launch of Windows8 during 03 was perceived as a game-changer and was expected to provide a boost in the demand for new client devices (laptops and desktops). However, slow transition to Win8 by most OEMs and non-availability of touch-based devices which showcase the specific advantages of this new operating system meant that consumers and companies were not enthusiastic enough to make a material difference to the demand.

 

During FY 12-13, fast changing consumer preference for Tablets and Smart phones started encroaching into the Notebook and PC space. Proliferation of low-cost, "acceptable" technology tablets is persuading consumers across geographies to consider tablets as their primary "information consumption", "entertainment" and "social interaction" device. Indian IT vendors have started realizing this inevitability and have now started strategizing on suitable product offerings to address this space.

 

The Company's business in imported products was impacted by continuous fluctuation in the foreign exchange rate, which disturbed the Market Operative Price (MOP) by lowering the confidence level of the channel partners. This made it difficult to predict demand and plan the business in an effective manner.

 

The Assembled PC or the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) segment continued its trend of deceleration in demand and this resulted in all Component manufacturers experiencing declining Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) throughout the financial year. This has severely impacted the Company's revenues from sale of CPUs, Mother Boards, Display devices and Internal Hard Disc Drives.

 

Vendors and products catering to Security, Voice and Data solutions have experienced significant growth during FY 12-13. The Company has been able to participate effectively in this space with vendors like Polycom, Avaya, Cisco, Systimax, Molex, HP, Fortinet, McAfee, Symantec, Cyber am and Sonic WALL.

 

Cloud computing is slowly gaining traction in the Indian market. The Company has formulated its strategy for a foray into this emerging technology space in a very deliberate and considered manner. While all IT vendors profess to have Cloud "play", during FY 12-13, the Company has initiated partnerships with vendors having a clear and firm channel strategy. With the "Cloud portfolio" from Microsoft, IBM, Hitachi, NEC, Trend Micro, Adobe, VMware, CA, CtrlS and Net magic, the Company is well positioned to commence a suite of offerings to its partners in the areas of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Infrastructure-as-a-Service (laaS) and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS). They are confident that this would allow the Company to have strong presence in the "distribution led space" in Cloud Computing.

 

CONSUMER AND LIFESTYLE PRODUCTS

 

The distribution of Consumer and Lifestyle products by the Company continued to show another strong performance in FY12- 13 with a 24% revenue growth over the previous fiscal year.

 

The Company continues to play a key role in India's Smartphone revolution. The Company sealed a relationship with Apple for the distribution of their Smart phones. According to IDC, Apple garnered over 15% value market share in 03 FY12-13 in India. BlackBerry has had a setback at the global level. However, the launch of its new line of devices (with the new Operating System - BlackBerry 10) has returned it to profitability as of 04 FY12-13 and it is hoped that they will do well in India too.

 

The Company has entered the eReader segment with its tie-up with Amazon. The Company has been appointed as national distributor for Amazon's eReader line - Amazon Kindle. In the tablet segment, despite the significant growth of low cost tablet devices, the iPad business continued to show strong growth at 48% in FY12-13. The successful introduction of the iPad mini line of products contributed to this growth.

 

The Company continues to be a key player in the fast growing Digital Printing space and has seen a 58% growth in revenues driven by both hardware and consumable sales.

 

HARDWARE SUPPORT SERVICES

 

The Company is one of the leading Service providers of IT and Telecom products in India. Through 69 owned service centers and additional 270 centres owned by authorized service partners, the Company is providing pre-sales, warranty and post-warranty services to many leading global brands like Hewlett Packard, Toshiba, IBM, Hitachi, EMC, Net App, Brocade, Cisco, Lenovo, Fujitsu, Acer, Apple, BlackBerry, HTC, Motorola, among others-several of them for a decade or more. For brands as well as corporate customers, the Company is the single point of contact providing the entire spectrum of services - Call Centre services, Field Engineering support, Parts Warehousing, Forward and Reverse Logistics, Imports and Re-exports and Asset Recovery. All service operations are conducted on customized Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Supply Chain Management (SCM) systems, to ensure process compliance, transparency and control.

 

To assure service excellence to their customers, and to enable predictability, efficiency and scalability in operations, the Company, during the past year, has developed and deployed world class Service automation tools across various functions, which are briefed below:

 

SMART is a Sales force automation tool specifically designed to facilitate sales management of Infrastructure Management Services (IMS) through prospect mapping, progressive tracking of every individual sales call, and designing of tailored expert support solutions to fulfill the business needs of each individual customer.

 

FIAT is an automated capacity planning tool that computes the optimized number of engineers in each skill category at each service location, besides identifying the training needs of individual engineers. This not only enhances the quality of services delivered to their customers, but also provides a career path to their workforce through continuous and relevant skill up gradation.

 

EXPART is an automated part prediction tool that enables part demand fulfillment rates of 95% and above, thus substantially reducing the turnaround times for remediation.

 

Given the large and ever-increasing base of assets under maintenance for the Company, it has commissioned an innovative way to facilitate the accurate collection of customer asset data from the field and instant direct upload into its CRM system, using MAGIC, a proprietary menu-driven 3G mobile device.

 

The Company has also upgraded its Contact center for IMS to a professional Technical Assistance Center (l-TAC), equipped with multiple toll free lines, redundancy, Interactive Voice Response and  Automatic Call Distributor, thus giving all its IMS customers guaranteed instant access for support services. Trained engineers at l-TAC now diagnose and resolve a large number of service requests either over the phone or through remote sessions, thus providing best-in-class customer experience.

 

The Company's Support Services are ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 20000 certified.

 

The Company's Enterprise Professional Service practice consisting of solution design and  implementation support across Server, Storage, Data, Voice, Video and  Security verticals enables brands to increase reach and  sales. During the period , Brocade has appointed the Company as PSP (Professional Service Provider) for Storage Area Network (SAN) products, further expanding its Enterprise Storage Services portfolio.

 

In the Infrastructure Management Services space, many prestigious corporate customers like Commissioner of Commercial Tax - Odisha, Renault Nissan, Venky's, MP Electricity Board, Land T Heavy Engineering Division, Pipavav Defence and Off shore Engineering, Sahara Group and many others have entrusted the Company with the maintenance of their IT assets.

 

The Company shall continue to sustain and improve its Service delivery excellence and deliver a unique value proposition to all stakeholders in the ecosystem-vendors, partners and customers.

 

SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT SERVICES

 

To capitialise on growth opportunities available in the supply chain solutions space, supply chain activities were transferred to ProConnect Supply Chain Solutions Limited (ProConnect), a Wholly Owned Subsidiary effective 1st October 2012. ProConnect acts as a neutral logistics service provider and focuses on the opportunities in the fast growing Third Party Logistics (3PL) market. Performance of ProConnect has been discussed in detail under Subsidiary Companies.

 

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK

 

GLOBAL

 

In an increasingly integrated world, where Geographic, Political, Social and Economic issues of one country have been seen to increasingly impact other nations in general, and its trading partners in particular, it is important to understand the role the global economy may have played in the performance of the company, which has operations across 24countries.

 

The global economic outlook remains muted. While the American economy appears to have recovered on the back of better industrial output, reduced unemployment and improved consumer confidence, the Eurozone is struggling with major nations facing paralyzing sovereign debt and banking crises. Growth in China has slowed and this has had a significant impact on commodity prices. While the depressed commodity prices and stable oil prices have helped industries and economies minimize the impact of the slow down by controlling "supply side input costs", falling consumer demand has put a question mark on global economic recovery.

 

IMF has reported that the weakness of demand in developed nations has actually resulted in a reduction of between 1-2% in the growth statistics of developing countries, whose economies are intrinsically tied up with fulfilling the consumer demand of prosperous economies.

 

The world economy is however increasingly dependent on the consumption and demand of the Emerging economies, which’s increasing affluent population, will form the foundation for its future growth. For this to happen, the Emerging nations would have to invest in expanding domestic infrastructure and enhance their national productivity.

 

INDIA

 

The Indian economy is reported to have grown by around 5% during FY 2012-13. The GDP growth and Industrial Output figures have been erratic between quarters of the past financial year and the Government has been forced to revise its projections continuously. While the Enterprise and the Commercial sectors have demonstrated a very conservative approach towards fresh capital outlay, consumer demand has tapered off on the back of persistent, all round negative economic sentiments. One of the biggest challenges faced by industries and businesses is the uncertain and non-transparent regulatory regime that has severely impacted normal decision making.

 

While the World Economic Outlook projects that Indian Economy will grow by 6.2% during FY 13-14, this still remains far lower than the 8-9% growth achieved in the earlier years. The Indian Government has professed its determination to bring the economy back to its high-growth trajectory by taking steps to boost investment and consumer confidence. However, the actual road-map would be defined by essential political compulsions. Any improvement is critically dependent on improving decision making, removing bottlenecks and implementing policies effectively and quickly. In a year when a couple of key State and General Elections are scheduled, it remains to be seen if the body polity would have the wherewithal to take any decisive steps towards actually improving investment and consumer sentiments.

 

Despite all the uncertainties and challenging regulatory regime, India remains one of the few attractive investment destinations worldwide. With huge infrastructure developmental requirements, a stable political regime is expected to promote investment friendly policies and the World Bank is of the view that India should gradually regain economic momentum and growth. Stable and predictable policies would also boost consumer confidence and consumer spending, which had driven the economic growth of the country in the past.

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

ENTERPRISE AND COMMERCIAL SECTORS DEMAND

 

Investment by the Information Technology and IT sectors would essentially be driven by the success of this industry in maintaining their growth story in the developed nations. While NASSCOM and a couple of the leading IT companies have maintained an aggressive growth projection, others have been far more conservative in their revenue and profit estimates for the new financial year. Investment by this sector in IT infrastructure would entirely depend on their business projections.

 

BFSI / Manufacturing: The country’s overall economic outlook and sentiment would govern IT investments in these sectors. These sectors have seen minimal investments in new technologies in the recent past and there is a strong requirement of technology and product refresh. Actual capital spends would however depend entirely on the industry’s overall confidence level. Liquidity and interest rate remain a major concern and a hindrance to aggressive capital investment. However, with falling wholesale and consumer inflation index, the RBI should be more inclined to easing capital availability and interest rate and this should be a definite boost to fresh investments in IT infrastructure.

 

Government: Both Central and State governments have huge investment requirements in various e-Governance projects which are essential if India has to continue its growth story. Most of these investment requirements have already been mapped out, but actual execution and expenditure would entirely depend on the willingness and confidence of the executive and administrative branches to take decisions. Government expenditure in infrastructure plays a far larger role in overall demand creation by creating an entire co-system for capital investment.

 

Education: This sector remains a major driver for demand for "client “devices like laptops and tablets. Budget outlays by Central and various State governments towards providing free / subsidized laptops and tablets to school and college students are on the rise and most State governments have multi-year expenditure plans in this area. Growth of "smart classrooms" has resulted in demand for Projectors and Smart Boards and this is expected to accelerate in the coming years.

Virtualization and Cloud Computing

 

EMC Corporation and Zinnov Management Consulting puts the total size of the Indian cloud computing market at USD 4.5 billion by 2015 from the current size of USD 400 million which would be almost 12 percent of the projected IT market in the country by then. This market was only USD 110 million in 2010, suggesting exponential growth. Cloud computing presents a viable option for Small and Medium Businesses to reduce the complexity and costs within their IT environments. It is recognized not only as a business enabler, but also as a strategic tool that will redefine business objectives by converting high-value, one-time Capital Expenditure to Operating Expenditures directly in proportion to actual business requirements. However, providers of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) solutions in India are still in the process of tailoring their offerings to the requirements of the Indian SMBs.As the adoption of Cloud services grows, the entire IT eco-system would have to evolve over the next 5 years to offer this as an essential business model in order to remain viable.

 

THE FORM-FACTOR EVOLUTION

 

The explosion of information consumption and social media has accelerated the convergence between IT and Communication devices. The demand for Tablets and Smartphone sis growing at an exponential rate and their proliferation is steadily impacting the demand for PCs and Laptops.

 

The Smartphone market is expected to grow from 29 million units in CY 13 to 171 million units in CY 17. Even more interesting is the evolution of the Tablet market in India. Total Tablet shipment crossed the 1 million mark for the first time during the October-December quarter of FY 2012-13 and is expected to double annually to 6 million units during the current fiscal.

 

PC penetration in the country continues to remain at one of the lowest levels in the emerging economies and has huge headroom for growth. Actual growth in penetration level will depend on building an economical, pan-India broadband infrastructure and developing applications and tools that would aid in information consumption and productivity improvement in the daily business requirement of the masses. However, whether this would result in growth of traditional PCs and laptops or of Tablets and Smart phones is something that the entire industry will be tracking very closely.

 

Most PC manufacturers have extensive plans of adding a range of Tablets to their product portfolio as they have realized that this is essential to their meeting consumer demands of tomorrow. A few of the manufacturers have elaborate plans to introduce their suite of Smart phones in an attempt to have a foot-hold across all form factors.
