INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The worst is over for India’s economy with gross domestic product likely to expand 5 %to 5.5 % this year and more than 6 % in 2015, according to Moody’s Analytics. Concerns over the rupee and current account deficit are under control, said the agency. Ratings firm Crisil has forecast 6 % growth for 2014/15 up from the estimated 4.8 % for 2013/14.  Total economic growth, infrastructure bottlenecks and lack of transparency and consistency in foreign direct investment policies seem to have taken a toll on India’s attractiveness as an investment destination, says an Ernst & Young survey.  Projects with FDI component fell 16.4 % across the globe in 2012 from the previous year.  The drop in India was steeper at 21 %. State run carrier Air India is doling out free tickets to its 24000 employees, even as it expects to incur a loss of Rs 39000 mn this financial year and has a debt of Rs 350000 mn. 550000 number of jobs generated across India in 2013, a fall of 0.4 % as compared to with a year earlier. The National  Capital Region has a one-fourth share in total jobs created, according to a study by industry lobby group Assochem, Banks, real estate, automobile and telecommunications sectors are showing a rise of job creation. $ 805 mn investments by venture capital firms in India during 2013, registering a drop of about 18 % over the previous year. The Information Technology and IT-Enabled  Services Industry retained its status as the favourable venture capital investors in 2013. Pakistan has temporarily banned gold imports for the second time in six months, as it tries to stem smuggling into India. India’s import duty on gold is 10 % and curbs on purchases have dried up legal imports into what used to be the world’s biggest bullion buyers. The World Gold Council puts the amount smuggled into India at upto 200 tonnes in 2013. The Reserve Bank of India has proposed that unclaimed bank deposits estimated to be about Rs 35000 mn be used for education and awareness among depositors.  According to the plan, deposits that have not been claimed for at least 10 years will be transferred to the scheme.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

ECONOMY AND INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

GLOBAL ECONOMY

 

Global economic developments over the last few months present a mixed picture. The US economy grew by 2.2 percent during 2012. China's economic growth in the first quarter of 2013 was 7.7 percent. China is gradually returning to faster growth after slow down in the earlier quarters. While other emerging and developing economies are struggling to maintain economic growth rates.

 

In the Euro zone area, sovereign debt problem has continued to weigh on the global recovery. After a brief phase of relative calm reflecting the large liquidity injection by the European Central Bank, renewed concerns have arisen about a sustainable solution to the sovereign debt problem and the increasing vulnerability of the banking sector. Consequently, risk aversion has increased.

 

All these salient global happenings have resulted into 'pull back' of demand situation for Indian exporters, which will perhaps further increase import – export gap, leading to increase in current account deficit.

 

 

INDIAN ECONOMY

 

In 2010, the Indian Economy rebounded from the global financial crisis in large part because of strong domestic demand and growth exceeded 8 percent year-on-year in real terms. India's economic growth began slowing in 2011 because of a tight monetary policy, intended to address persistent inflation, and a decline in investment, caused by investor pessimism about domestic economic reforms and about the global situation. High international crude prices have increased the government's fuel subsidy expenditure, contributing to a higher fiscal deficit and a worsening current account deficit. In late 2012, the Indian Government announced reforms and deficit reduction measures to reverse India's slowdown. The Government undertook long anticipated measures towards fiscal consolidation by reducing fuel subsidies and selling stakes in public enterprises.

 

India's economic growth rate during fiscal 2012-13 is estimated to be lower at 5 percent, lowest in the decade, on account of poor performance of manufacturing, agriculture and services sector.

 

India's GDP growth in Quarter 3 of 2012-13, at 4.5 percent, (compared to 6 percent same quarter last year) was the weakest in the last 15 quarters. The services sector growth, hitherto the mainstay of overall growth, has also decelerated to its slowest pace in a decade.

 

India's exports, which had surpassed pre-crisis levels within a year in 2010-11 with a record 40.5 percent growth, continued growing even in 2011-12, but were finally affected by the global slowdown in 2012-13. The reason for decline in export was on account of slowing down of GDP growth of partner countries specially Euro zone countries.

 

India imports around 80 percent of its annual crude oil consumption and gold worth billions of dollars and that disturbs the whole balance of trade. India's current account deficit has increased due to weak exports, heavy gold and crude oil imports and a slowdown in inward remittances from overseas Indians.

 

The Current account deficit of the country and uncertain global economic environment, particularly unfolding of Euro zone sovereign debt crisis, which impacted the level of foreign institutional investment flows in the foreign exchange market lead to depreciation of rupee against dollar. Rupee depreciation also resulted in increase in inflation and thus, stagnant growth of the economy.

 

 

IRON AND STEEL INDUSTRY

 

India's rank in the world order of steel production remained unchanged at fourth slot with an output of 76.7 million tonnes, despite logging the highest growth of 4.2 percent among major producing nations in 2012.

 

 

IRON ORE

 

Ban on iron ore mining in Karnataka has adversely affected the iron ore situation in terms of supply, quality and cost. Auction of iron ore from closed mines has been of a low quality and with high cost. Added to this 12 percent forest development tax has created additional burden to the industries in Karnataka dependent on the iron ore.

 

More transparent norms for iron ore mining are now being put in place in many States so that all stakeholders benefit, and the first results of these measures should be visible in Karnataka sometime during financial year 2013-2014, in the form of improved supply.

 

The iron ore procurement continues under e-auction mode. Presently 8 mines are in operation in Karnataka and the annual production capacity has been capped at 30 million tones per annum by the Supreme Court.

 

However, on 18th April, 2013 the Supreme Court allowed limited resumption of mining in Karnataka State by 55 'A' category mines and 63 'B' categories mines, but set an annual production cap of 30 million tones for mining in the districts of Bellary, Tumkur and Chitradurga. Since these companies have to fulfill all reclamation and rehabilitation obligations and pay fines before they can resume mining operations, it will take some time before the availability of iron ore improves.

 

The Supreme Court also cancelled 49 mining leases of the 'C' category mines and directed that they be auctioned amongst end users. The floor price for such auctions would be based on the market value and ore to be used for captive purposes only. No sale / export would be permissible from 'C' category of mines. Since the Company is actual user and does not own any mine, it can apply for such mines.

 

COKE

 

Because of demand fluctuations during the global financial crisis, metallurgical coke prices have been reacting along the lines of fuel prices. After a scenario of continuous increase in coke prices, in 2010 and 2011, the prices started to decline between mid-2011 to end-2012. China has withdrawn 40 percent export tax on coke from January 2013. Chinese coke is likely to be available once again at comparable prices.

 

 

AUTO INDUSTRY

 

The auto industry is showing its first decline in annual sales in 10 years as a result of high interest rates and high fuel costs. The auto industry is estimated to have a growth of around 3 to 5 percent for the current financial year 2012-13 from the earlier estimate of 10 to 12 percent. Overall economic situation in the country, high petrol price, inflation, hi high vehicle finance cost and differential excise rate are among the factors affecting overall industry.

 

 

TRACTOR INDUSTRY

 

The Indian tractor industry has been hit by lower sales due to a host of issues ranging from deficient monsoon, mining curbs, delays in infrastructure projects, etc., where tractors are used on a large scale. The industry may face a further slowdown in demand, if rural credit availability does not increase and deficit monsoon continues for 2013-14.

 

 

COMPANY PERFORMANCE

 

Inspite of the closure of mines and non availability of iron ore at reasonable price, the Company has been able to run both the blast furnaces during the year. Commissioning of sinter plant helped the Company to consume iron ore fines instead of lump ore and get the benefit of price difference and reduction in coke consumption.

 

Even though sluggish market conditions prevailed in the tractor and auto industry, the Company managed to minimise the impact on its production.

 

The Company achieved net sales of Rs. 11,981 million (previous year Rs. 10,896 million). Sales value has shown a growth of 10 percent in spite of stoppage of one of the mini blast furnace aggregating to 73 days for relining and major maintenance. Further slowdown in Tractor industry and auto sector also impacted the sales of castings.

 

In terms of volume growth in sales, Pig Iron sales has increased by 20 percent, while castings sales reduced by 5 percent compared to previous year.

 

The profit before tax for the year stood at 624.19 million as compared to 556.61 million of the previous year after providing for depreciation and amortization showing an improvement of 12 percent over the previous year.

 

During the year , the fund based utilization of working capital (for financing the iron ore purchase under e-auction) was for the entire year, as compared to utilization for only half of the year during the previous year ie. 2011-12 resulting in increased interest cost.

 

During the year, the Company availed term loan and buyers credit aggregating to Rs. 904.600 millions for the import of capital equipments and machinery.

 

OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

 

The slowdown in the tractor industry as well as automobile industry has impacted the production of castings with consequent effect on sales.

 

The Company sold 58,725 MT castings aggregating to Rs. 4,420 million during financial year 2012-13 as compared to 62,136 MT castings aggregating to Rs. 4,493 million in the previous year.

 

The Company sold 236,633 MT of pig iron valued at Rs. 6,771 million during financial year 2012-13 as compared to 197,524 MT of pig iron valued at Rs. 5,626 million in the previous year.

 

Sinter plant which functioned for part of previous year, was in operation throughout the year under consideration. The use of sinters in place of iron ore lumps in the Mini Blast Furnace has reduced the consumption of iron ore lumps substantially and consequently reduced the cost of pig iron manufacture. The Company faced many problems in getting iron ore supplies, but managed to ensure availability of iron ore throughout the year to maintain its operations.

 

Due to closure of mines and demand supply gap, iron ore prices have remained high. Available iron ore has been of a low quality and this has affected the productivity and the cost of manufacture.

 

The demand for high grade iron ore fines increased because of newly installed Pallet Plants. This has resulted in pushing up the prices of iron ore fines.

 

Many steel manufacturers started dumping pig iron into the market due to the sluggish steel market resulting in lower market demand for pig iron during the financial year 2012-13. Pig iron prices have come down substantially in last four months of 2012–13.

 

Coke prices in the beginning of the year was at USD 350 per MT and the prices have come down to a level of USD 290 per MT by the end of the year. Rupee depreciated against dollar during this period, hence full benefit of coke price reduction could not be materialized in rupee terms.

 

Thus, the Company faced a challenging task of managing both the production and the cost of production in these adverse conditions and took appropriate and timely decisions to ensure uninterrupted production and at the same time also ensured that the cost of production was also kept under control.
