INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

N E W S

 

As per the latest IMF study, the total weigh of emerging markets in the GDP of the world on a purchasing power parity basis has seen a sizeable shift. It highlights how as against 51 % in 2005, the emerging economies now account for close to 56 % of the global purchasing power GDP as per the latest survey. And with the emerging economies growing at a faster rate than their developed counterparts, there are every possibility that the their share goes up further in the coming years.  China may surpass the US over the next few years.

 

Politics and economics are very intricately connected. They tend to influence each other in ways that could be very complex and far-reaching. The prospects of the India’s economy have been seriously compromised due to political corruption. High inflation, poor standard of living are to a great extent a result of rampant corruption in the country. China on the other hand, seems to be facing diametrically opposite challenge. American hedge fund manager Jim Chanos has been keenly following the political and economic development in the dragon economy and has figured out something that is quite worrying. He is of the view that the Chinese economy could be heading toward trouble on account of new Chinese President Xi Jingping’s very aggressive anti-corruption drive. Chanos believes that many things such as apartment sales, luxury products, etc. were largely bought with dirty money. And it is now beginning to impact consumption. This may indeed be bad news for an economy that is struggling to transition from an investment-driven export-oriented economy to a domestic consumption-driven economy.

 

A study published by Firstpost has revealed that asset classes like real estate and equities were the biggest beneficiaries of the liberalization policies.  A firm called Ciane Analytics studied returns from assets including equities, gold, fixed deposits, G-Secs and real estate since 1991. Real estate outperformed every other asset classes during the 23-year period with an annualized return of 20 % ! Equities came in second with annualized return of 15.5 % ! However, while these returns may seem mouthwatering, the fact is that the return from equities adjusted for inflation came down to just 7.1 %.

CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

Subject is a public Company domiciled in India and incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. Its shares are listed on three stock exchanges in India. The Company is engaged in the manufacturing and selling of forged components. The Company caters to both domestic and international markets. The Company’s CIN is L25209PN1961PLC012046.

 

 

PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY

 

During the year, the total income of the Company was Rs.35140.000 Millions (previous year Rs.32428.000 Millions), representing an increase of 8.36%.

 

Indian automotive Industry witnessed another year of de-growth across all segments. Motor and Heavy Commercial Vehicle Sector de-grew by 18% after 26% de-growth in FY 2012-13. Tractor Industry, however, witnessed a growth of 20%. Domestic sales for the Company had a drop of 3%. The Company was able to largely offset the adverse impact of market conditions in Auto Industry through higher sales to Tractor Industry and other non-automotive sectors.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

GLOBAL AND INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

2013 witnessed developed economies gaining traction, whereas emerging economies lost ground. The global recovery was led by fiscal stimulus, low interest rates and reassurance by the central bankers. Improved economic metrics showing encouraging employment numbers and spending summed up the US recovery story. Its tapering of quantitative easing programme also led to a brief currency slide in many emerging economies. The

Eurozone dispelled recessionary fears on the back of eased up credit scenario and improved resilience while growth in China rebounded in the second half of 2013, due to acceleration in investment.

 

The global economy ended the year on a better footing as compared to the start of the year and the growth momentum is expected to be carried forward during 2014.

 

As per the IMF estimates, global GDP growth is expected to grow at 3.9% in 2015, and 3.7% in 2014 as compared to 3% in 2013. Global trade activity is likely to increase and grow at 2.5% in 2013 visà-vis 2.3% in 2012.

 

The Indian economy has been going through challenging times that culminated in lower than 5% growth of GDP for two consecutive years, i.e. FY 2012-13 and FY 2013-14. The slowdown is broadly in sync with trends in other emerging economies, but relatively deeper. India’s growth declined from an average of 8.3% per annum during 2004-05 to 2011-12 to an average of 4.6% in 2012-13 and 2013-14.

 

The growth slowdown was broad based, but affected in particular the manufacturing sector with the output of capital goods also declining for the third year in a row starting 2011-12.

 

A sharp decline in imports and a moderate growth in exports in 2013-14 resulted in a decline in India’s trade deficit and contributing to a lower CAD. The current account deficit (CAD) declining to manageable levels after two years of worryingly high levels was a redeeming feature of 2013-14. The year ended with a CAD of 1.7% of GDP as against 4.7% in 2012-13.

 

The fiscal deficit as a proportion of GDP also declined for the second year in a row. It declined from 5.7% of GDP in 2011-12 to 4.9% in 2012-13 and 4.5% in 2013-14.

 

The improvements in the twin deficits would, no doubt, feed into a higher growth in FY 2014-15, but the pace of recovery may be gradual. Investment revival, strengthening of macroeconomic stability, creation of non-agricultural jobs, strengthening of infrastructure, and boost to agricultural development would be the priorities for growth revival.

 

Moderation in inflation would help ease the monetary policy stance and revive the confidence of investors, and with the global economy expected to recover moderately, on account of performance of some advanced economies, the Indian economy can look forward to better growth prospects in FY 2014-15 and beyond. In FY 2014-15, the Indian economy is poised to overcome the sub-5% growth of gross domestic product (GDP).

 

On the flip side, however, growth in FY 2014-15 can remain more on the lower side of the range given above, for the following reasons: (i) steps undertaken to restart the investment cycle (including project clearances and incentives given to industry) are perceived to be playing out only gradually; (ii) the benign growth outlook in some Asian economies, particularly China; (iii) still elevated levels of inflation that limit the scope of the RBI to reduce policy rates; and (iv) expectation of below-normal monsoons. Downside risk also emerges from prolonging of the

geo-political tensions.

 

 

GLOBAL AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY

 

Global demand for medium- and heavy duty trucks was noticeably higher than in the prior year but with stark contrast across the various regions. North American truck market registered a 10% decline in demand in CY 2013 compared to CY 2012, it improved towards the end of the year backed by slight recovery in US economy and a continued replacement of the existing fleet. European heavy duty truck market improved on the back of pre buy before the transition to the new Euro VI regulations.

 

The South American market for heavy duty trucks also witnessed increased demand in CY 2013 on back of slight improvement in the Brazilian economy and financing support from the government for purchase of trucks. Truck demand in Asia varied with both the Chinese and the Japanese truck volumes increasing in CY 2013 while the Indian truck market saw the 2nd straight year of decline in demand.

 

The global demand for cars witnessed an increase in CY 2013 compared to prior year. Here too, the development of demand varied across geographies. The US market continued its strong recovery registering total sales of 15.5 million cars and light trucks, highest level since 2007. Major Emerging Economies with the exception of China witnessed a declined in demand.

 

 

INDIA’S AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY

 

FY 2013-14 was the second consecutive year of volume decline for the automotive sector in India across all segments of the industry. Total automotive production recorded a 7.2% decrease compared to FY 2012-13 with slowdown in economic growth and higher interest rates continuing to weigh in on demand. While there was a marginal improvement in demand towards the end of the fiscal due to reduction in excise duty from 12% to 10%, it was not enough to mitigate the damage caused in the April – December 2013 period.

 

 

PERFORMANCE OF THE INDUSTRY

 

The overall Commercial Vehicles (CV) segment registered de-growth of 16.1% in FY 2013-14 compared to the same period last year. Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicles (MandHCVs) and Light Commercial Vehicles (LCV) registered negative growth of 21.0% and 13.5%, respectively.

 

The frail performance in the CV sector is due to strong headwinds and pessimistic sentiments. Slowdown in infrastructure projects and lack of industrial activity led to low MandHCV production volumes at all major OEMs. Lower investments in infrastructure projects (which witnessed a marked decline in implementation of projects, eventually leading to underutilisation of fleet); lower confidence levels of the fleet operators (the stretched usage of long haul trucks, lower returns on freights and higher maintenance and fuel costs otherwise); lower resale value and lower level of mining activities due to mining bans are the other reasons cited for the frail performance of the sector.

 

The truck market hit a low in FY 2013-14, producing only about 221,626 trucks compared to 384,801 in FY2012, a drop of more than 40%.

 

Sales of Passenger Cars have declined by 5.8% during FY 2013-14 over the same period last year. The decline was on account of the slowing economy and higher fuel prices that have hurt consumer sentiments, especially in the urban areas.

 

 

COMPANY REVIEW

 

Bharat Forge Limited (BFL) is the flagship Company of the Kalyani Group. The Company is India’s leading exporter of components for automotive and industrial applications.

 

The manufacturing facilities, equipped with high-end technology, are spread across India, Germany and Sweden. The Company manufactures an extensive array of critical and safety components for several sectors including automobile, oil and gas, rail and marine, energy (across renewable and non-renewable sources), construction, mining and general engineering.

 

BFL is a fully-integrated player with a presence across the full value chain. It is involved right from the initial designing stage to procurement of the raw material to final development of the product.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS OF 2013-14

 

BFL’s export revenues in FY 2013-14 witnessed a robust growth of 16.5% driven by recovery in the Heavy Truck market in Europe and recovery in the Non-Automotive sector in North America. Bharat Forge continues to win new orders with newer clients or increase market share with existing clients.

 

These order wins have become possible based on the Company’s ability to provide solutions in terms of lightweighting of products which helped address the OEM needs for better fuel efficiency.

 

Focus on improving performance of the products through value addition and fatigue life improvement projects helped to reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Also, it has looked at increasing its share of business with its existing marquee clients and new client additions.

 

During the year, Bharat Forge followed a three pronged-strategy to continue on a growth oriented model for the export markets:

 

·         Growing the business by leveraging technology. The focus for the year remained on partnering customers on product improvements which included light weighting, enhanced durability and a combination of the two.

 

Growing business with existing customers by broadening the product base and offering superior value addition by enhancing metallurgy and developing better processes which led to growth in market share.

 

Enhancing the product portfolio by creating capabilities and achieving necessary internationally acclaimed certifications such as NADCAP to serve the aerospace industry.

 

Going forward, challenges are expected to surface given the volatility of markets, increasing competition and greater demand for superior products from OEMs. In order to address these challenges, Bharat Forge intends to strengthen its focus on innovation which will enhance value perception of its products on a global scale. Additionally, it will seek newer opportunities in key geographies while continuing to support existing customers through a range of value added, technologically superior product portfolio.’

 

 

AWARDS

 

Over the years, Bharat Forge has been recognised for the high quality of products and services it has delivered. Some of the awards received by the Company are given below:

 

·         The Company entered into “Hall of Fame” by getting awarded the CIO100 (‘The Astute 100 - 2013’) award for the fourth consecutive time. BFL also won the Special Award in “Information Security” Category. These awards are conferred by the International Data Group in recognition for innovative implementation in IT.

 

BFL also won the ‘Diamond EDGE (Enterprises Driving Growth and Excellence)’ award from Information Week Magazine. It recognises CIOs [Chief Information Officer] in India who have demonstrated best use of technology to solve a business problem, improvement in competitiveness and delivering quantifiable return on investments to stakeholders.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

Outlook on the economy

 

The growth in India is likely to firm up on the back of stronger structural policies favoring investment, clearance of stalled projects and demand recovery, backed by improved external economic climate. The early estimates suggest that these are likely to drive GDP growth to +5% in FY 2014-15.

 

The demand levels for the automotive market across geographies are stabilizing with an upward bias. Overall the demand is expected to be moderately better in H2 FY 2014-15 likely to be driven by exports and early signs of recovery in India.

2)       Pursuant to the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”), the Company has, during the quarter ended June 30, 2014, revised depreciation rates on certain fixed assets as per the useful life specified in Schedule II of the Act or as re-assessed by the Company.
