INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India’s current account deficit narrowed in the quarter ended September as government measures to curb imports, especially gold, kicked in.  The current account deficit, the excess of a country’s imports of goods and services over exports, narrowed to $ 5.2 billion from $ 21 billion in the year ago period, according to provisional Reserve Bank of India data. Finance Minister P. Chidambaram said the CAD for the year will be less than $ 60 billion or 3 per cent of GDP and the latest data suggests the government may achieve the target.

 

India was ranked 94th among the world’s most corrupt nations list. Denmark and New Zealand topped as the cleanest while Somalia emerged as the most corrupt.

 

India’s services sector activity witnessed a moderate improvement in November over the previous month, even while indicating the fifth successive monthly contraction, according the HSBC survey.

 

$53 million estimated losses suffered by India due to phishing attacks during the third quarter, according to a study by RSA. India ranks fourth in the list of nations hit by phishing attacks. The US remained at the top of the charts. Phishing is the process of acquiring information such as user names, passwords and credit card details by sending e-mails disguised as official mails.

 

Rs.4080 million worth of mobile-phone-based transactions by July 2013 compared to Rs.260 million in September, 2012, according to Deloitte report. The number of transactions has shot up from 94000 to 701000.

 

India aims to earn Rs.400000 million from the bandwidth auction set for January. The merger and acquisition guidelines, cleared by a group of ministers, will be out before the auction begins so that players can make informed decisions on the auctions.

COMPANY PERFORMANCE

The year saw a slowdown in the Indian economy with a consequent adverse impact on the commercial vehicle industry. Whilst the overall volume declined by 2% year over year, the medium and heavy duty segment clocked a 25% drop. Despite the above, the Company increased its market share from 23.5% to 26.5% in the M and HCV segment.

In the Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) segment, 'Dost' continued to grow in volumes. The performance of Power Solution Business and Spares have been very encouraging. Export volumes dropped primarily due to the setback in Sri Lanka which could not be fully recouped in other geographies.

LONG TERM BORROWINGS:

SECURED NON-CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

During the year, the Company issued Secured Non-convertible Debentures to the tune of Rs. 3500.000 Millions for a tenor of 3 years (NCD Series AL 17 for Rs. 2000.000 Millions and NCD Series AL 19 for Rs. 1500.000 Millions) and Rs. 2500.000 Millions for a tenor of 5 years (NCD Series AL 18 for Rs. 1000.000 Millions and NCD Series AL 20 for Rs. 1500.000 Millions) aggregating to Rs. 6000.000 Millions for FY 2012-13. During the year, no Secured Non-Convertible Debenture had fallen due for redemption.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

MARKET TRENDS

 

ECONOMY

 

During FY 2012-13, the Indian economy experienced a low growth rate of about 5-5.5%. Year-on-year GDP growth rate in the 3rd quarter touched 4.5%, the second lowest in recent years.

 

Agricultural growth at 1.8% year-on-year was lower compared to 3.6% of the previous fiscal because of the delayed onset of monsoon that resulted in food grain production contracting by about 3.5%.

 

Industrial sectors, too, continued to reel under the severe slowdown. The general IIP index contracted for 6 months out of 11, the manufacturing index for 5 months out of 11 and the mining index for 10 months out of 11. The general index, therefore, grew by a low 0.9% during the period April to February. The manufacturing index demonstrated a mere 1% growth during the same period. The mining index showed a de-growth of 2.5%. As a result, CSO has estimated manufacturing GDP growth of just 1.9% for the full year (2.7% last fiscal) and a mining growth of 0.4% for the full year (-0.6% last fiscal).

 

Going ahead, most market analysts expect FY 2013-14 GDP to be around 6%, assuming a normal monsoon. The Reserve Bank of India remains focused on containing inflation, and is expected to continue following a conservative policy on interest rates. Some positive movement is visible in the mining policy while the manufacturing slowdown appears to be slowly bottoming out. Lower crude prices are also expected to help the government meet its fiscal targets. However, much work remains to be done to free up core sectors and restart growth, and recovery is expected to be slow. Long term prospects for the Indian economy, however, continue to remain bright, given the favourable demographics and the directional commitment towards liberalisation.

 

In 2012, the global economy continued to perform weakly. World output was down from 4% in 2011 to 3.2% in 2012. Emerging and developing economies touched a low of 5.1%, reflecting a sharp drop from 6.4% in the previous year. Apart from the Middle East, Africa and ASEAN, most economies shrank significantly. The Euro zone shrank by 0.6%.

 

Going forward, outlook for the global economy has both areas of concern as well as some bright spots. IMF expects emerging and developing economies to grow relatively strongly at 5.3% and 5.7% for 2013 and 2014 respectively. While US is recovering faster and is expected to clock 1.9% and 3% for the same period, the Euro zone is expected to continue lagging, with bleak scenarios of -0.3% and 1.1% for

 

2013 and 2014 respectively. Even the stronger economies in Europe, such as Germany and France, have poor growth forecasts. Against this background, the overall global economic growth will remain muted.

 

COMMERCIAL VEHICLE INDUSTRY

 

Contrary to predictions made last year, the Commercial Vehicle (CV) industry fell despite the Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) category performing well. The industry also saw the entry of new players into the market.

 

The overall CV market registered a de-growth of 2% in April-March 2013 as compared to the corresponding period last year. The overall volumes went down from 809,499 vehicles to 793,150, vehicles. The Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicles (M and HCVs) segment declined by 23% to an overall volume of 268,623 vehicles while the LCV segment grew at 14% to reach 524,887 vehicles

 

The LCV segment has been one of the growing segments in the entire automobile space. The 2 - 3.5 T GVW segment, within LCVs, is driving growth with a year-on-year increase of 72% in volumes. This is on the back of strong demand for transportation of consumer goods within cities and replacement demand from upper-end three wheelers.

 

Reflecting the downtrend in the economy, multi-axle rigid trucks fell by over 32% compared to the previous year to reach 96,424 vehicles. These vehicles are used to transport a wide range of goods such as agricultural produce, cement, other materials used in construction and industrial goods. This drop was due to an overall slowdown in industrial and construction activity and the resultant caution among transporters. It was also in part due to the shift to rigid vehicles with higher capacity (8x2) for greater operating efficiencies. This trend was reflected in the tractor-trailer segment as well which registered a drop of 35% to reach 18,593 vehicles. The ICV (Intermediate Commercial Vehicle) trucks which are in the 10-12 tonne capacity range, also fell from 67,104 vehicles to 57,571 vehicles, a drop of over 14%. Sale of tippers also fell by 28%, mainly due to poor economic activity and the ban on mining in Karnataka and Goa.

 

The segment level drop was also reflected consistently across the four regions of the country. Among them, the Eastern region recorded the steepest fall of almost 35% in M and HCV sales over last year. This could be attributed mainly due to lack of mining activity across the region.

 

2012-13 was also a poor year for Indian exports, with sale of commercial vehicles dropping by 13% from 92,258

vehicles to 79,944 vehicles with key markets like Sri Lanka dropping drastically and procuring more from China.

 

The tepid economic environment and the high base, are bound to have an impact on Total Industry Volume (TIV) in the coming fiscal. Several industry analysts have projected growth rates at 4-8%. SIAM has projected an annual growth rate of 3-5% for medium and heavy duty vehicles and about 12-14% for light vehicles.

 

ASHOK LEYLAND - THE YEAR (2012-13) IN BRIEF

 

MEDIUM AND HEAVY COMMERCIAL VEHICLES

 

Against a backdrop of a major slump in the CV market, Ashok Leyland grew its share in the domestic market in 2012-13 by 3%. The Company sold 70,916 M and HCVs in the domestic market which was 13% less than the previous year. This included 18,976 MandHCV buses and 51,940 M and HCV trucks, 10% less and 14% less respectively, compared to previous year.

 

The Company grew market share across most segments and regions. One of the biggest gains was in the ICV goods segment with the Company increasing its sales volumes by nearly 55%, resulting in 5% gain in market share. It must be noted that ICV goods, in the long term, remains one of the fastest growing segments.

 

The financial crunch and slowdown of economy witnessed in Sri Lanka, as well as the overall global economic situation, impacted Ashok Leyland’s international volumes this year. The Company exported 8,778 vehicles in 2012- 13, 32% lower than the previous year. Sri Lanka, a key overseas market, fell by over two-thirds compared to last year. However, the Company grew in other regions across the world, notably in the Middle East, where it registered a growth of 15%.

 

The Power Solutions Business earned revenues of Rs. 4030.000 Millions in the year 2012-13, achieving a 27% increase compared to the previous year.

 

Spare Parts business grew by a healthy 18% in 2012-13, with an all time high turnover of Rs. 10040.000 Millions.

 

The Defence business suffered due to cut-backs and budget constraints of the government resulting in sales of 275 vehicles and 2,463 kits reflecting a drop of 26% and 17% respectively.

 

In FY 2012-13, the Company produced 112,163 vehicles (including 35,401 nos. of LCV ‘Dost’), a 9% growth compared to the previous year. The Company significantly expanded its dealer network especially in areas where hitherto it had only limited coverage. Full service outlets grew to over 400 and, for the first time, the number of outlets in North exceeded the number in South.

 

To address the challenges faced in the domestic market, the Company laid considerable emphasis on product development and marketing efforts, targeted at the fastest growing segments and regions which resulted in promising growth in the last quarter of the fiscal. The Company has lined up several ground-breaking products for core segments in the upcoming fiscal, in the ICV as well as MDV segments apart from the Neptune engine that will be launched on multi-axle haulage vehicles.

 

Substantial focus has been given to improving customer satisfaction levels with targeted initiatives across all hubs that included better organisation of the sales force, customer lifecycle management and enhancement of service levels.

 

Finally, the Company remains committed to build capabilities in the identified five focus areas wherein it chose to invest heavily – quality, people, brand, innovation and efficiency. The Company has taken on challenging targets in each of these areas and has kicked off several initiatives to achieve them.

 

In summary, the Company has prepared well for the challenging economic scenario expected next year as well as increasing competition in the M and HCV space.

 

 

LIGHT COMMERCIAL VEHICLES BUSINESS

 

In 2012-13, the Company completed its first full year of participation in the fast-growing LCV segment in India. The first product, Ashok Leyland ‘Dost’, has contributed to transforming the SCV segment, by shifting the market

emphasis from sub 2 tonnes to 2-3.5 tonnes GVW. In FY 2012-13, the Company sold close to 35,000 ‘Dost’ vehicles. Today, ‘Dost’ is the second largest selling product in its segment, with a pan India market share of 18.5%, despite being launched only in 11 States. In States where it is present, ‘Dost’ enjoys market leadership across most, and a market share of 25.6%. The Company has also just started exporting ‘Dost’ to SAARC countries. To support the sale and service of LCVs, the Company has built a new LCV-oriented network of 100 touch points within 18 months.

 

In the upcoming financial year, the Company is planning to launch several variants of ‘Dost’ including a CNG version, the ‘Partner’ range of trucks and buses in the 4-6T segment, and the ‘Stile’ – a Multi-Functional Vehicle for commercial applications.

 

The Joint Venture Company, in which the Company is an equal partner with Nissan, is preparing for a new manufacturing facility near Chennai dedicated for LCV.

PRESS RELEASE

 

ASHOK LEYLAND RETAINS MARKET SHARE IN A DECLINING MARKET

 

Wednesday, November 6, 2013

 

The downturn in the commercial vehicle industry continued into the second quarter of FY 2013-14, and Ashok Leyland, flagship of the Hinduja Group, has reported a revenue of Rs 49130.000 Millions in the first half of the current fiscal, as against Rs 63460.000 Millions in the corresponding period last fiscal.

 

The market continues to contract, with the Total Industry Volume (MandHCV Domestic) down by 25%. Ashok Leyland clocked total MandHCV volumes of 30,820 nos. (41,411 nos) and LCV volumes of 14,021 nos. (15,913 nos). Despite the challenging scenario, the Company maintained market share. It retained leadership position in the passenger segment aided by better penetration in the ICV bus segment.

 

While the Company has reported a net loss of Rs 1670.000 Millions for the first half of FY14 (Net Profit of Rs 2100.000 Millions), net loss has reduced from Rs 1420.000 Millions in Q1 to Rs 250.000 Millions in Q2.  Sale of long term investment generated Rs 480.000 Millions during the current quarter.  EBITDA % improved from 1.5% in Q1 to 3.1% in Q2 in the current fiscal.

 

“Results are reflective of the tough market situation experienced during the first half of the year. There is likely to be some improvement in Q4 but we do not expect any significant change. As an organization we have used this opportunity to re-structure and will remain focused on creating better value for customers through new products, improving operating efficiency and divesting some of the non-core investments. Our recent sale of Defiance Testing and Engineering Services is part of this overall company strategy,” said Vinod K. Dasari, Managing Director, Ashok Leyland.

 

“BOSS, our breakthrough product in the ICV segment, was launched during the quarter and initial customer feedback on fuel efficiency and driving comfort has been very encouraging. The new engine platform, Neptune was launched in the multi-axle haulage vehicle called the Sankagiri Express. Our new MPV - STILE - the second product from the Ashok Leyland-Nissan alliance has just been launched and initial feedback is positive. We are confident these new products will help build volume and lead to greater customer satisfaction. We continue to invest in product development, network expansion and quality improvement initiatives,” he further added. 

 

 

DESPITE A TOUGH QUARTER, WE REMAIN FOCUSED ON BEING FUTURE-READY

 

Tuesday, July 16, 2013

 

“Although the entire commercial vehicle industry has had a very tough Quarter 1, we, at Ashok Leyland, have remained focused on being future-ready by staying committed to our product development, network expansion and cost control programmes,” said Mr. Vinod K. Dasari, Managing Director, Ashok Leyland, putting perspective to the Quarter 1 results of the Hinduja Group flagship. “What we are experiencing is one of the harshest and steepest of downturns and while we are combating it, the situation also affords us an opportunity to streamline our processes towards becoming a leaner and far more customer-oriented organization.” 

 

The Company registered a turnover at Rs. 23638.100 Millions for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 as against Rs 30268.900 Millions of the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal. However, the various cost control measures have helped the Company remain positive on the EBIDTA front.

 

Sale of vehicles for the quarter stood at 14,900 numbers (20,239 nos.) with domestic volume at 12,960 nos. (17,335 nos.) reflecting a drop of 25.2% over the previous corresponding quarter. The sale of the Company’s successful Small Commercial Vehicle ‘Dost’ was 6,824 nos. (7,248 nos.). Volumes from international operations stood at 1,940 nos. (2,904 nos.).

 

The Company’s Loss from Operations before Other Income, Finance Costs and Exceptional Items stood at Rs. 719.200 Millions (Profit of Rs. 1514.500 Millions). Apart from a drop in volumes, heavier discounting of vehicles to compete in the marketplace further eroded profits.

 

Ashok Leyland suffered a Net Loss at Rs. 1417.500 Millions as against a Net Profit of Rs. 669.400 Millions for the corresponding quarter in the previous year.

 

To effectively address the tough situation that is expected to last for this fiscal, the Company has initiated concerted efforts to reduce its breakeven point. Manufacturing footprint is being rationalized to improve asset utilization. Focused efforts to reduce the debt have been accelerated and steps have been taken to reduce operational expenses.

 

Speaking about the remainder of the financial year, Mr. Dasari said, “Although the market is still very volatile there are some green shoots showing. However, while we cannot control the market, we are focused on preparing ourselves for a revival which is bound to come hopefully sooner rather than later. We are seeking to capitalize on our gains in the ICV space with the launch of the BOSS vehicle which should win us market share. This will be followed by the introduction of the Neptune engine on select Multi-Axle vehicle models and the N-Truck with a revolutionary, new, world-class cab. The JnNURM 2 should prove to be an ideal launch pad for the Janbus. To support all this, we will continue to be aggressive in our network expansion and all these are going to help us to be future-ready,” he concluded.

 

 

ASHOK LEYLAND SELLS SHARES WORTH RS 750.000 MILLIONS IN INDUSIND BANK

Chennai, December 18, 2013 

 

Hinduja Group flagship company Ashok Leyland on Tuesday sold 18,00,000 equity shares in IndusInd Bank worth around Rs 750.000 Million.

 

The shares were acquired by CPCI Mauritius for the same amount, according to block deal data of Bombay Stock Exchange.

 

According to the details, Ashok Leyland sold 18,00,000 equity shares for Rs 417 per share. As per the shareholding pattern as on September 30, 2013, Ashok Leyland had 1,30,13,923 equity shares in IndusInd Bank, which is around 2.48% of the total share of the Bank.

 

In March this year, Ashok Leyland had offloaded 50 lakh shares of IndusInd Bank in a transaction worth more than Rs 2160.000 Millions. This was part of the company's announced plans to partially or wholly divest its stakes in various institutions, including IndusInd Bank, which would help the company reduce its debt and focus on the core business.

 

The shares at that time were bought by Afrin Dia, a foreign institutional investor, again based in Mauritius, who had 79 lakh shares or 1.51% stake in the bank, as on December 31, 2012.

 

Ashok Leyland had also revealed plans earlier to dilute shares in other companies, including Hinduja Leyland Finance (HFL), Defiance Technologies and Defiance Testing. Of this, it has sold Defiance Testing to testing, calibration and advisory service provider Exova, which has operations in US, Europe and other parts.

 

Earlier, Ashok Leyland diluted its stake in IBL and in ICICI and booked a profit of around Rs 75.000-76.000 Millions during the current fiscal.
