INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India’s current account deficit for the fiscal third quarter ended September 2013 narrowed to $4.2 billion or 0.9 % of the gross domestic product from $31.9 billion or 6.5 % of GDP a year earlier, thanks to a pick-up in exports and moderation in gold imports. Manufacturing activity and new orders in India showed their strongest growth in a year in February. The news comes as a relief after data showed Asia’s third largest economy grew by a slower-than-expected 4.7 % annually in the three months through December. The HSBC Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index which gauges the business activity of India’s factories but not its’ utilities, rose to 52.5 in February, its highest in a year from 51.4 in January. Overall new orders for factory goods which rose to a one-year high of 54.9 contributed to the surge. China has emerged as India’s biggest trading partner in the current financial year replacing the United Arab Emirates and pushing it to the third spot. India-China trade has reached $49.5 billion with a 8.7 % share in India’s total trade. The US comes second at $46 billion with 8.1 % share during the first nine months of the current financial year.

 

The Reserve Bank of India has granted an additional nine months to the public to exchange currency notes printed before 2005 including Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denominations, pushing the deadline to January 1, 2015. A day before dates for the Lok Sabha polls were announced, the government decided to hike interest rates on fixed deposit schemes offered by post offices up to 0.2 per cent. The new rates will be effective April, 1. The Supreme Court will resume hearing on March, 11 Nokia’s appeal against a ruling over transferring ownership of its local mobile phones plant which is the subject of a tax dispute to Microsoft Corp.

 

In the last days of the current Government, another scam has surfaced. The defence ministry has ordered a probe into Hindustan Aeronautics Limited’s contracts from Britain’s Rolls-Royce Holdings worth at least $ 1.2 billion. The Central Bureau of Investigation will look into allegations that over $80 million was paid in kickbacks in a deal signed in 2011. India has asked Boeing Co. to find a solution for problems with state-owned Air India’s 787 Dreamliners. The aircraft has experienced a series of malfunctions since its debut in 2011.

BUSINESS REVIEW:

 

The CSO (Central Statistical Organization), has estimated that the Indian Economy is likely to register a lower growth of 5% in FY 2012-13 as compared with the modes growth of 6.2% registered in 2011-12 and much stronger growth in 2009-10 and 2010-11. It is further stated that the sharp decline in growth is mainly due to external causes, while domestic causes also contributed. The growth rate declined on account of the reduction in investment rate and lower growth of exports vis-ŕ-vis that of imports. Growth in net exports has been negative due to the weakening of global demand. The net exports growth has been low because of global weakness. The World Economic Outlook (WEO) Update released by the IMF in January 2013 put the rate of growth of world output at 3.9% in 2011 and 3.2% in 2012, down fro 5.1% in 2010. For the advanced economies, the growth rate was much lower at 3%, 1.6%, and 1.3% for 2010, 2011 and 2012 respectively. The growth rate in the relatively faster growing emerging economies also fell over this period. As a result of weak growth in (trading) partner countries, Indian exports also declined. With the global economy likely to recover in 2013 further aided by several decontrol measures announced by the Government in recent months, the Indian economy’s outlook for 2013-14 can be viewed as “cautiously optimistic”.

 

GRAPHITE INDIA

 

In the face of this situation, the year has been quite challenging for the Company due to slow global recovery and consequent weak market conditions. Revenue from Operations at Rs.18361.800 millions was marginally higher by 5.4% for FY 2012-13 as against Rs.17420.300 millions in the previous year. While there was a steady increase in the price of major inputs, raw materials and all round increase in production overheads, selling expenses and finance cost, unfortunately, there was no commensurate increase in selling price. The major players in their aggressive drive to pick up volumes, continued to drop the selling price throughout the year. Japanese producers also reduced prices riding on the back of a weak Yen. This situation leads to lower PAT of Rs.1630.800 millions for the current year as against Rs. 2378.900 millions in the previous year. Charge on account of depreciation was also higher on completion of Durgapur plant expansion.

 

The Company’s Graphite and Carbon Segment continues to be the main source of revenue and profit for the Company, accounting for about 93% of the total revenue. This segment registered a growth of around 11% YoY 

 

The Company’s total export sales increased by 22% but domestic sales declined due to unabated imports in spite of increase in demand.

 

Glass Reinforced Plastic Pipes and Steel segment did not perform to expectation due to weak demand and unsustainable prices.

 

The business environment in all segments has become intensely competitive. In order to sustain and survive through this difficult phase, the Company has taken extraordinary measures in ensuring efficient management of all resources, innovative approach to cost reduction and high level of operating efficiencies.

 

The performance of the Company’s German subsidiaries suffered due to poor demand, increase in input costs and steep fall in selling prices.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

  1. INDUSTRY’S STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS

 

 

CHANGE IN SEGMENT HEADS

 

The Company has revised the composition of business segments for its Segment Reporting for better understanding of results –

 

Graphite and Carbon Segment, engaged in the production of Graphite Electrodes, Miscellaneous Carbon and Graphite Products to include Captive power generating units and Impervious Graphite Equipment (IGE);

 

Steel Segment engaged in production of High Speed Steel and Alloy Steel; and

Others to include Glass Reinforced Plastic Pipes (GRP) and Power generating utilities for external sale.

 

A. GRAPHITE AND CARBON SEGMENT

 

GRAPHITE ELECTRODES

 

Graphite Electrode is used in electric arc furnace (EAF) based steel mills for conducting current and is a consumable item for the steel industry. The principal manufacturers are based in USA, South America, Europe, India, China, Malaysia and Japan.

 

Graphite Electrode demand is primarily linked with the global production of steel in electric arc furnaces. Between the two basic routes for steel production- (1) Blast Furnace (BF); and (2) Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) – the EAF route to steel production has increased over the last two decades to about 30% at the global level. The share of EAF is expected to grow further in years to come due to its inherent favorable characteristics of (a) an environment friendly and less polluting production process; (b) low capital cost; and (c) faster project (commissioning) time. Fresh investments in EAF steel mills are characterized by large furnace capacities requiring large diameter UHP Electrodes. It is expected that the demand for UHP Electrodes too will grow synchronously. These industry features coupled with an increasing proportion of EAF steel share in total crude steel production should proportionately augment the demand for graphite electrodes.

 

World crude steel production reached 1,548 million tonnes (Mt) for the year 2012, up marginally by 1.2% (1529.2 Mt) compared to 2011. The growth came primarily from Blast Furnaces (Ref: World Steel Dynamics). Rising input costs, intense competition especially from global players on price front because of subdued international markets posed considerable challenges during the year. This is compounded by liberalization of import tariff for these items by the Government. On the other hand, Graphite Electrodes from India are subject to levies in some countries making imports dearer for overseas consumers. Going forward, the Customs Union of Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia have imposed an anti dumping duty of 32.85% on import of Graphite Electrodes from GIL effective from 26 January, 2013.

 

The Company is in the process of filing appeal in the appropriate Court.

 

The new facility for production of 20,000 MT of Graphite Electrodes at Durgapur has become operative and the process of stabilization is underway. Upgraded technology deployed in this facility should position the Company as a preferred supplier from the quality/consistency perspective.

 

CALCINED PETROLEUM COKE AND PASTE

 

The Coke Division in Barauni, engaged in the manufacture of Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC), is one of the several backward integration initiatives of the Company. The Division also makes Carbon Electrode Paste and Carbon Tamping Paste. Two grades of CPC - aluminum and graphite – are produced here. CPC is a raw material used in the manufacture of regular and high power grade Graphite Electrodes. This is also a critical raw material for fine grained high density graphite used in specialty graphite products and impervious graphite equipment. Carbon Electrode Paste is used in Ferro alloy smelters and Carbon Tamping Paste is used as a lining material in submerged arc furnaces.

 

This division could not perform to expectations because of poor demand, low realisation and constraint in supply of basic raw material i.e. raw petroleum coke.

 

IMPERVIOUS GRAPHITE EQUIPMENT

 

The Impervious Graphite Equipment (IGE) Division is engaged in manufacturing and marketing of heat exchangers, ejectors, pumps and turnkey plants. These have a wide range of applications in corrosive chemicals industries such as pharmaceutical, agro-chemical, chloro alkali and fertilizer industries.  Over the years the Company has built this product line into a reliable brand with a reputation for prompt service, good quality and consistent performance through investing in strengthening the core competencies.

 

This division has done extremely well during the year posting a growth of 56% in sales over FY 2011-12 driven primarily by execution of orders for capital equipment for domestic and international customers.

 

The Company was the only domestic manufacturer in this field till recently. One of the major global players has established a full scale production base in India. This Division is adequately equipped to meet the challenges of competition from established European and Japanese producers.

 

The regulatory requirement of export licences and the delay in obtaining the same, has to some extent limited the performance in servicing short delivery lead time orders and led to loss of some business to competitors.

 

CAPTIVE POWER

 

Power constitutes one of the major costs of Electrode Production. For captive consumption, the Company has an installed capacity of 27 MW of power generation through Hydel (18 MW) route and 13.5 MW through multi-fuel route. Power generation through Hydel Power Plant was lower to 29.48 million units as against 52.72 million units in the previous year due to weak monsoon. The multi fuel power generating sets remained as standby owing to adequate availability of power from the grid. Pursuant to failure of Wardha Power Co. Ltd. (WPCL) to commence power supply in accordance with the terms of Power Delivery Agreement (PDA), the Company terminated the PDA and Shares Subscription Agreement (SSA) and asked WPCL to buy back the shares held by the Company along with interest. The Company has invoked the arbitration clause as provided in the Agreement.

 

B. STEEL SEGMENT

 

Powmex Steels Division (PSD) is engaged in the business of manufacturing high speed steel and alloy steel having its plant at Titilagarh in the State of Orissa. PSD is the single largest manufacturer of High Speed Steel (HSS) in the country. HSS is used in the manufacture of cutting tools such as drills, taps, milling cutters, reamers, hobs, broaches and special form tools. HSS cutting tools are essentially utilised in – (a) automotive; (b) machine tools; (c) aviation; and (d) DIY market. The industry is characterized by one good quality manufacturer of HSS viz. PSD and several other small manufacturers who cater to the low end of the quality spectrum in the retail segment. On the demand side, the industry is broadly divided into large and small cutting tool manufacturers who use both domestic and imported HSS. PSD faces competition from small domestic producers and imports from large overseas manufacturers.

 

During the year, overseas suppliers were aggressive on prices of HSS products to the domestic consumers, resulting in loss of some business by PSD. It is expected that such competition may increase in the coming years as the suppliers try to increase market penetration in the Asian markets. Demand in domestic market was also subdued.

 

 C. OTHER SEGMENTS

 

GLASS REINFORCED PLASTIC PIPES AND TANKS (GRP)

 

GRP Division is engaged in manufacturing of large diameter Glass Fibre Reinforced Plastic Pipes, Pipeline liners, by continuous filament process with computerized, advanced technology. These pipes have diverse applications such as water supply projects, power plants, sewerage disposal schemes, industrial effluent disposal, etc.

 

The Company has a good track record of supplying large diameter pipes in major infrastructure projects. During the year, the performance of the Division has remained below par due to severe under cutting of prices by competitors. Further, the Division had to face cost pressures on account of rising commodity prices and general inflationary economy. The market is increasingly getting flooded with small competitors owing to low technological requirement and low investment involved, resulting in unhealthy competition. Project cost over-run, delay in completion of projects, disputes on contractual defaults and non-receipt of receivables are the several inherent risks in this business. Thus, it has become difficult to operate in this unpredictable business environment and the Company has become selective in picking its orders. Consolidation of the industry’s capacity may take some time, but perhaps that probably is the way forward for this Division.

 

1.5 MW HYDEL POWER FACILITIES

 

Power generated from this facility is sold to Karnataka Power Grid under a Power Purchase Agreement. Generation of power is entirely dependant on monsoon. During the year the performance of this unit was adversely affected due to poor monsoon.

 

  1. OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

 

India has acquired a strategic position on the global steel map, from the growing demand from infrastructure, real estate and automobile sector. India was ranked as the world’s fourth largest crude steel capacity in 2011-12 and is expected to become the second largest producer of crude steel in the world by 2015-16. India is also one of the world’s largest producers of sponge iron. The World Steel Association has estimated steel consumption in India to grow at 5% in 2013. There will be a major spurt min steel demand in the medium term if the Indian Government implements its US $1 trillion infrastructure investment plan.

 

In the medium to long term, this augurs well for the domestic Graphite Electrode industry. But the short-term challenges such as: (a) less than projected GDP growth leading to softening of demand for steel, (b) disruption in supply of primary inputs to the EAF steel mills like consistent and adequate supply of quality power at affordable tariff, and soaring prices of scrap may perhaps restrict the production of steel through the EAF route. It may also put on hold some of the investment / expansion plans.

 

The Company is exposed to the threat of the cyclical nature of the steel demand as also to the risks arising from the volatility in the cost of input materials. The Company also faces the challenge in its domestic market, due to large scale import of graphite electrodes. Volumes would be impacted by factors like: (a) Deceleration of the global economy in 2012 further impeded by projections of a gradual recovery in 2013-14; (b) doubts about the early resolution of the crisis in the euro area; (c) doubts about the pace of fiscal withdrawal in the US - all these developments are likely to impact adversely the business prospects in general.

 

While the Company is equipped and geared to face these business challenges, it is hopeful of realising its business goals, subject to a positive revival of the business environment.

 

  1. SEGMENT-WISE PERFORMANCE

 

REVENUE OF THE COMPANY

 

The revenue from operations amounted to Rs.1836.18 crore as against Rs.1742.03 crore in the previous year. Aggregate Export Revenue of all divisions together was Rs.1163.62 crore as against Rs. 954.25 crore in the previous year.

 

GRAPHITE AND CARBON SEGMENT

 

Production of Graphite Electrodes and Other Miscellaneous Carbon and Graphite Products during the year was 67,583 MT against 68,549 MT in the previous year.

 

Production of Calcined Petroleum Coke during the year was 24,183 MT as against 26,885 MT in the previous year.  Production of Carbon Paste during the year was 6,303 MT against 8,308 MT in the previous year.

 

Production of Impervious Graphite Equipment (IGE) and spares at 1,013 MT was higher as compared to that of 850 MT in the previous year.

 

Power generated from captive Hydel Power Plant of 18 MW capacity amounted to 29.48 million units during the year as against 52.72 million units in the previous year. Multi-fuel generating facilities remained as stand-by and were not operated due to adequate availability from the grid.

 

The Segment Revenue increased to Rs.17008.300 millions from Rs.15361.100 millions in the previous year registering a growth of 11%. However profitability of the segment was adversely impacted due to increase in input cost, overheads, etc. without corresponding increase in selling price. The volumes impacted due to lower domestic sales in the backdrop of increasing imports in the country.

 

Steel Segment

Production of HSS and Alloy Steels was 1,620 MT during the year as against 1,883 MT in the previous year.

 

Other Segments

The GRP Division produced 4,298 MT as against 11,198 MT in the previous year.

 

Sale of power from 1.5 MW Link Canal facilities was 2.05 million units as against 4.11 million units in the previous year.

 

  1. OUTLOOK

 

According to indications and forecasts, there may not be any significant growth in FY 2013-14. According to one Report of IMF, Global growth is projected to increase during 2013, as the factors underlying soft global activity are expected to subside. However, this upturn is projected to be gradual. In fact, economic conditions improved modestly in the third quarter of 2012 aided by global growth increasing to about 3 percent. The main source of acceleration was emerging market economies, where activity levels picked up. As per the January 2013 update of the IMF, world trade volume is projected to grow by 3.8 per cent in 2013. Import and export volume growth rates of emerging market and developing economies are however projected to be higher than those of advanced economies.

 

The revival of growth in the advanced economies is expected to be slow and uncertain at least in the near future, despite the measures being taken on monetary and fiscal fronts. Nevertheless, it is unlikely that the support to Indian growth from the global economy will be significant. Backed by policy actions announced in the recent budget, it is projected that India would return to the robust growth path of 7-8% over the next two to three years.

 

The Indian steel sector has grown substantially during the last decade, registering a strong demand push in the last five years. India's steelmaking capacity is estimated to exceed 100 million tonnes (Mt) by 2013 and the production is expected to reach 275 Mt by 2020. The per capita steel consumption increased from 34 kilograms (kg) in 2004-05 to 59 kg in 2011-12.  It is projected that Electric Arc Furnaces will contribute to over 50% of global steel production by 2020, in view of its various advantages, primarily from the point of view of low emission of carbon dioxide. This development augurs well for the growth of graphite electrode demand in future years, inspite of reducing specific consumption of electrodes per tonne of steel produced, as a result of improvement in manufacturing technology of steel as well as electrodes.

 

With its competitive cost structure, strong technical product features and a well-diversified customer base, the Company has established its presence in the global graphite electrode industry as a potential global player and this has significantly enabled the Company to penetrate aggressively, the growing market for large diameter UHP graphite electrodes.

 

It is expected that the domestic demand for steel and as a corollary for Graphite Electrodes may increase marginally. Faced with unfavorable business conditions, the global players have turned to the Asian markets and are following an aggressive pricing policy to capture volumes. This is likely to affect the Company’s domestic volumes as also the profit margins.

 

SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

 

Carbon Finance Limited is wholly owned Indian subsidiary and Graphite International B.V. in The Netherlands is wholly owned overseas subsidiary of the Company which is the holding company of four subsidiaries in Germany. The overseas subsidiaries recorded a turnover of Euro 49.71 mn as compared to Euro 61.19 mn in the previous year.

 

On the backdrop of prolonged economic slowdown, German subsidiaries did not do well due to low demand in Europe, increase in production costs and reduction in prices by competitors to capture volumes in the dwindling market. Hence, lower turnover coupled with high input cost have resulted in loss of Euro 3.62 mn during the year, as against profit of Euro 1.02 mn in the previous year. Following tax audit carried out for the periods 2004- 2008, subsidiaries had to make provision for tax including interest thereon amounting to Euro 1.85 mn. Discussion is on to bring it down.

 

The Company earned by way of Royalty Rs. 39.200 millions during the year, as against Rs. 48.200 millions in the previous year, from overseas subsidiaries.

 

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs by a Circular dated 08- February-2011 has granted exemption from the provisions of Section 212 of the Companies Act, 1956 with regard to the attachment of the accounts, reports, statement in terms of section 212(1)(e), etc. of its subsidiaries as part of its Accounts. The Board of Directors of the Company has by a resolution given consent for not attaching the aforesaid documents of its subsidiaries. The Annual Accounts of subsidiary companies and the related detailed information will be made available to the holding and subsidiary company investors who seek such information at any point of time. The annual accounts of the subsidiary companies will also be kept for inspection by any shareholder in the Registered Office of the Company and that of the subsidiaries.
