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.

FINANCE

 

The Company continues to efficiently manage its resources to achieve cost effectiveness and maintains its financial risk profile over the medium term backed by the healthy cash generation. Nirma’s admirable credit profile is reflected in its relationship with all the lenders. To meet additional working capital requirements, the company has enhanced its credit limits from the existing Rs. 10000.000 Millions to Rs. 14000.000 Millions in May 2013. Additionally Rs. 3000.000 Millions were raised through issue of Rated, Secured, Unlisted, Redeemable, Non-Convertible, Non-Cumulative Taxable Debentures on private placement basis for general corporate purpose. As on March 31, 2013, Company’s total debt was at Rs. 18312.000 Millions while gross debt to equity ratio including short term and long term debt was 0.62.

The earning before finance cost, depreciation and amortization expense (EBITDA) was at Rs. 4600.000 Millions registering growth of nearly 43% over the previous period on annualized basis. The total operating expenses including finance cost was at Rs. 21430.000 Millions. As a percentage of gross sale, it was 87%. The Company registered net profit of Rs. 1740.000 Millions for the six months period. The networth of the Company stood at Rs. 29530.000 Millions as of March 31, 2013.
