INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The services sector, the largest contributor to India’s GDP, contracted for the sixth consecutive month in December, as orders dipped. However, hiring has risen.  Direct tax collections rose 12.3 % during the April – December period of the current financial year.  The government has decided to retain 100 per cent foreign direct investment in both greenfield (new) and brown field (existing) pharmaceutical companies, despite concerns over genetic drugs going out of production, if multi-national companies take over domestic ones. In M&A deals, a non compete clause would not be allowed, except in special circumstances. The Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion plans to release the next edition of its consolidated foreign direct investment policy document on March 31, incorporating changes made in the past year. DIPP compiles all policies related to India’s FDI regime into a single document to make it easy for investors to understand. 185 million estimated number of mobile internet users in India by June 2014, according to a report by the Internet & Mobile Association of India and IMRB International.  India had 110 million mobile internet users with 25 million in rural areas. $3.77 tn estimated global IT spending in 2014, according to research firm Gartner Inc. The growth forecast for this year is cut to 3.1 %from the earlier estimate of 3.5 %. The spending growth forecast for telecom services – a segment that accounts for more than 40 % at total IT spending – from 1.9 per cent to 1.2 per cent is the main reason for this overall IT cut. A Reserve Bank of India committee has recommended setting up a special category of lenders who would cater to small businesses and households, to expand the number of customers with access to banking services. These banks would focus on providing payment services and deposit products.  Indian banks want the free use of automated teller machines to be capped at five transactions in a month including that of the bank in which the account is active. This follows state government order to banks to install security guards at ATM booths after a woman banker was assaulted in Bangalore. The government is likely to present a vote on Account in mid-February. The annual Economic Survey will be tabled later in Parliament along with the full Budget. A full Budget for 2014/15 is likely to be present in July by the new government formed after the General Election. The government will soon launch an internet spy system, called Netra, to detect malafide messages. Security agency will deploy the system to capture dubious voice traffic on applications such as Skype and Google Talk, as well as tweeters.

CORPORATE INFORMATION:

 

Subject is a Public Limited Company incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act ,1956 on 14th May, 2010. The Company is engaged in the Manufacturing of Billet, Steel bars and rods and right bars of various categories of special and alloys steels.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT:

 

A) BUSINESS REVIEW:

 

Global Steel Outlook

 

Globally, the steel industry this year remained plagued by over capacities and increased imports. The economic slowdown in 2012 unfavourably impacted infrastructure and construction spending. Steel prices improved in first half of 2012, but declined in the second half due to a glut in imports, weak demand in Europe and tempering growth in Asia.

 

Global Steel demand is anticipated to improve gradually in 2013 as compared to 2012 levels owing to renewed focus on infrastructure spending by Asian countries which will potentially stabilize steel prices. Improvement in steel consumption is envisaged in automotive industry as it is most likely to become localized more and more in countries like India, Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam accelerating the demand of steel in these countries. Lot of imports for automotive steel parts is expected to happen in countries like Germany, Spain and Turkey.

 

 

INDIAN PERSPECTIVE

 

In 2012-13, India produced around 25 million vehicles against 24.75 million vehicles in 2011-12. Though demand for utility vehicles in the passenger car segment grew marginally, the demand for heavy commercial vehicle was badly hit in 2012-13.

 

The demand for steel in India is expected to remain muted in the next financial year as compared to 2012-13. The

automotive industry too is not expected to grow much affecting the fortunes of the industry. Stability in commodity

prices coupled with expected drop in crude oil prices will be other contributing factors.

 

Overall, the future outlook for the steel sector could be positive from third quarter onwards. The steel prices will be competitive as the demand is likely to pick up depending upon the revival in economic growth and the government

measures to ease infrastructure investment rules. The demand for value added products like bright bar, spherodised annealing steel, normalized steel etc. will boost the demand in engineering and auto sector.

 

 

COMPANY'S BUSINESS STRATEGY AND FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

The year 2012-13 was a very difficult year with increased capacities among steel mills and slow down in the auto sector. This affected the sales of the Company and as a result they faced a drop in sales and a much bigger squeeze in margins. This situation is likely to continue atleast for the first half of the year.

 

The Company, however, believes in the future of high quality niche products and plans to continue to expand in this segment. The Rolling Mill upgradation Project which was undertaken last year is expected to start trial production in June, 2013. There has been an increase in the scope of the project and therefore, the cost has gone up to Rs. 160 crore. With starting of commercial production from the new Rolling Mill, the capacities will increase along with improvements in quality and reduction in cost. There will be reduction in rolls changeover time which shall increase the share of value added products and improve customer satisfaction. They expect the new Rolling Mill to stabilize by July, 2013 and start operating normally thereafter. They are currently focusing on getting volumes and hope to be running at full capacity from October onwards.

 

Now, the Company is facing shortage in certain value added segments and they are making a plan to invest in some capacity enhancement in this area. In addition, they have applied to the Ministry of Environment for permission to increase the capacity of the furnace to 2 lac tonnes per year from the current 1.25 lac tonnes. Hopefully, they should get this by March, 2014. Once that is available, they will need some more investment to make that possible.

 

During the year 2012-13, the Company exported around 4,207 MT of alloy steel. In the coming year, the Company is targeting newer export destinations in current market in addition to consolidating and increasing sales in present countries. Further, new approvals are in sight from other global companies which shall add to export volumes for the Company.
