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.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

(Within the limits set by the Company’s competitive position)

 

The core business of MRF is manufacturing, distribution and sale of tyres for various kinds of vehicles. The management discussion and analysis given below discusses the key issues for various sectors of the business.

 

Tyre Industry Structure and Development

 

The turnover of the Indian tyre Industry is estimated to be around Rs.440000.0000 Millions for the period for 2012-2013. During the period, exports accounted for Rs.48000.000 Millions. 1245 lakh tyres were manufactured by the tyre companies. Ten top tyre Companies’ production constitute over 90% of the total tyre production. Around 65% of the total tyre industry tonnage is sold in the replacement market and OE market comprises about 24% of the tonnage, the balance being exports.

 

Commercial tyres (which include HCV, LCV & SCV) contribute to around 65% of the total tyre industry tonnage wherein 78% of the production tonnage is sold in the replacement market and OE market comprises about 14% of the tonnage and exports 8%. For the passenger car group car group around 47% of tyres manufactured are sold to OEMs and around 49% caters to the replacement segment.

 

In the truck tyre sector, the commercial segments continue to be primarily dominated by cross-ply due to very poor road conditions, loading patterns and high initial cost of radials. The radialisation pattern of various product and heavy commercial vehicle - 25%. Radialisation in commercial vehicles segment in expected to grow by 3% to 4% during 2013-2014

 

During 2012-13, in the vehicle manufacturing sector, there has been a dip of 30% in the production of heavy commercial vehicles and an 11% increase in light commercial vehicles. There was a 5% decline in the small commercial vehicle segment. The passenger car group production also saw a decrease of 4%. Whereas in the utility group, there has been an increase of 21% over the last year. In two wheelers, scooters witnessed an 11% increase whilst in motorcycle segment, the production remained flat. In the farm segment, there was an 8% increase in production over 2011-2012

 

The tyre industry provides direct and indirect employment to one million people comprising of dealers, retreaders and truck operators. The truck operations are controlled by nearly 2.6 million small operators.

 

There are around 5000 tyre dealers spread throughout the country, mostly selling multibrand across their counters.

 

SEGMENT WISE AND PRODUCT WISE PERFORMANCE

 

During the period 2012-13, MRF achieved a sales turnover of Rs.134450.000 Millions. This is an increase of around 3% over the previous year. There was an increase of 4% in total tyre production in almost all segments. In the heavy commercial vehicle group, the largest segment, the increase was 5% over the last year and in light commercial vehicle group, the increase was 5%. In the motorcycle and scooter segments there was no visible increase over the previous year. The passenger car group registered an increase of 6%.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The automobile industry is going through a recession and it is unlikely to turn favourable in the immediate future. This would have a bearing on tyre demand. The after-market demand continues to prop up the tyre industry demand. The capacity additions in the tyre industry would further fuel competition and this could put pressure on margins especially in the truck radial segment.

 

PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY

 

The sales turnover of the Company during the year increased by around 3% from Rs.130540.000 Millions in 2011-12 to Rs.134450.000 Millions in 2012-13. Earnings before depreciation and interest (EBIDTA) amounted to Rs.17960.000 Millions against Rs.12930.000 Millions in the previous year. After providing for depreciation and interest, the profit before tax for the year ended 30th September 2013, Rs.12270.000 Millions as compared to Rs.8330.000 Millions in the previous year. After making provision for income-tax, the net profit for the year stood at Rs.8020.000 Millions as compared to Rs.5720.000 Millions in the previous year.
