CORPORATE OVERVIEW

 

Subject is engaged in the business of food processing, mainly basic food i.e. wheat, rice and pulses. The Company is having manufacturing facilities for rice, wheat & pulses milling. The company is also engaged in Bio Mass Power generation and Logistic, however the operations in these two segments are comparatively not significant and mainly for captive purpose only.

 

 

FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

 Company has achieved stabilization of all of its existing Rice and Wheat milling capacities, which are operational now at optimum capacity utilization levels, except newly installed capacity expansion which have commenced commercial operations in the current financial year. The enhancement of production capacities and consolidation of processes and systems derived the synergies and optimized the use of available resources because of which the Company is being able to maintain its growth despite of prevailing difficult economic and market conditions.

 

During the year the sales and other income of the Company have increased to Rs.12243.626 Millions from Rs.9515.704 Millions in the previous year, recording a growth of over 28.67%. Profit after tax also increased to Rs. 669.466 Millions against that of Rs.453.608 Millions in previous year, registering a growth of 47.59%. Management of the Company under the direction of the Board of Director continued to achieve the targets of cutting down the cost of operations and bettering the efficiency by using better alternated resources/means and methods of operation.

 

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

A)    Capacity Expansion and Pulses Initiative

 

With an overall vision to emerge as one stop solution to allbasic food, the Company has embarked on the increase of its Rice Milling capacity and setting up a plant for Pulse and Pulse Flour milling capacity at Chhata, U.P. The Company has successfully commissioned a Rice Milling Plant of 4,86,000 TPA after which total Rice milling capacity stands to 1,081,440 TPA. In addition, the company has also successfully commissioned a pulses processing mill with a capacity of 105,600 TPA and a pulses flour mill with a capacity of 23,100 TPA. The Company is proud to state that the machineries for the said expansion projects have been imported from world class manufacturers from Japan and Switzerland. Successful commissioning of said expansion projects have ensured a significant step towards the vision to become a complete basic food miller.

 

B)    Rice fortification plant

 

The Company has successfully commissioned imported rice fortification plant. The Company is selling the fortified rice to the mid-day meal projects of various states of the government through Programme for Appropriate Technology in Health (PATH). The said plant has already commenced its commercial production in November 2012. In view of the high profitability of the rice fortification plant, Usher Agro Ltd. is also planning to further increase the production capacity of fortified rice in the future. The Company also envisions exporting fortified rice to other countries. Fortified rice prevents loss of iron and vitamins from rice during the milling process.

 

C)    Venture into Silica

 

Subject has successfully commenced commercial production of the Silica plant at Chhata Mathura. The technology for the manufacturing of silica has been taken from IISC Bangalore, which is a patented technology and Usher Agro Ltd. is the first company to implement this novel project first time in the world. Now the Company will be in a position to supply ecofriendly green silica at competitive rate to the customers. Significant work has been done in the area of marketing of silica manufactured by this plant to global players. Also in the long run the Company envisions setting up a 50TPD Silica Plant in its subsidiary Company i.e. Usher Eco Power Limited. This plant will produce silica from Rice Husk Ash through the said patented technology. This will further improve operational efficiency of the Company by value added use of waste i.e. Rice Husk Ash.

 

D)    Modernization and Capacity Expansion of Rice Milling facilities at Buxar- Bihar

 

Rice Milling process and technology has seen good amount of progress during the last five years, in keeping pace with the advancement in the technology we have modernized the existing rice milling facility at Buxar and also additional capacity of 46,800 MTPA rice milling at the same complex has been added during the current year thereby making the total rice milling capacity to 93,600 MTPA at Buxar.

 

E)    Setting up of 1 MW Captive Power  Plant at Buxar- Bihar

 

With the above rice milling capacity expansion project at Buxar- Bihar availability of rice husk, a bye-product of rice milling, will increase. To take the advantage of the availability of bye product and to be self-reliant on the power front the Company has setup a gasifier power plant of 1 MW at Buxar, Bihar for captive use. This power plant will help to reduce the cost of operation with better efficiencies and better efficient value added utilization of Bye product.

 

F)    Expansion of Wheat milling Capacity at Mathura

 

Currently we are having 75,000 MTPA wheat milling capacity at Mathura and the Company has expanded its existing wheat milling capacity by 50,000 MTPA to make total wheat milling capacity of 1,25,000 MTPA. This capacity expansion has increased the existing wheat milling capacity by more than 60% and also will strengthen overall commitment and vision of Company to be a one-step basic food solution.
