INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

N E W S

The data was below an official estimate of 4.9 % annual growth and compared with 4.5 % in the last fiscal year. However, the current account deficit narrowed sharply to $ 32.4 billion at 1.7 % of gross domestic product, in 2013/14 from a record high of $ 98.8 billion or 4.7 %, the year before.A sharp fall in gold imports due to restrictions on overseas purchases and muted import of capital goods helped shrink the current account deficit.

 

Online retailer Flipkart has acquired fashion portal Myntra as it prepares to battle with the rapidly expanding India arm of the global e-commerce giant Amazon. The company raised $ 210 million from Russian Investment firm DST Global which has also invested in companies like Facebook, Twitter and Alibaba Group.

Naresh Goyal – promoted Jet Airways posted biggest quarterly loss – Rs 2153.37 crore – in the three months ended March 31, mainly because it has been offering discounts to passengers to fill planes.

China has told its state-owned enterprises to sever links with American consulting firms after the United States charged five Chinese military officers wih hacking US companies. China’s action which targets consultancies like McKinsey & Co. and the Boston Consulting Group, sterns from fears that the first are providing trade secrets to the US governments.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The global economy is witnessing gradual and sustained revival. Aided by strengthened global activity and world trade in the second half of the year, global GDP recorded a 3% growth in 2013. With sustained strengthening in the US and core Euro region, global economy is expected to sustain momentum and record a stronger GDP growth of 3.6% in 2014. Emerging and developing economies are expected to benefit from developed economies in form of increased export opportunities.

 

Indian economy passed through one of its toughest phases in the financial year 2013-14 (FY 14). High inflation, weak demand, depreciating currency, rising cost of industrial input, tight liquidity with high cost of borrowing – all this took the consumer and investment sentiments to a new low.  At 4.7%, the country recorded its second successive year of sub 5% GDP growth.

 

In light of weak growth numbers, the government and regulators pushed ahead with few reform measures and clearances of projects in the second half of FY14. With the hope of a stable government post ensuing general election in May 2014 coupled with a stronger global economy, Indian economy is likely to post better growth numbers in FY15.

 

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

HOUSING SEGMENT

 

Planning Commission’s Working Group on Rural Housing for XIIth Plan estimated the number of rural houses to grow at a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2.09% while rural households were projected to grow at 2.1%. It further estimated the rural housing shortage to be at 43.67 million units for the plan period 2012-2017. Reflecting the economic well being of rural population, Pucca houses are estimated to grow at a much faster rate of 4% CAGR over 2.9% CAGR for the semi Pucca houses.

 

Rural infrastructure, including dwelling units, is a key social priority of the government. This will help in sizeable asset creation in terms of rural housing. With the benefit of economic growth now getting visible in the rural areas, disposable income and aspiration quotient of rural India is on the rise. The huge housing deficit in rural India, with a majority of Kaccha houses, offers tremendous opportunity of sustained growth of new age construction practices as well as building products. Looking ahead, with the ambitious 12th Five-year plan in place along with a stable government of the country, the income of the under-privileged section is expected to go up. This should translate into an increased demand for roofing products such as Fibre cement roofing sheets.

 

National Housing Bank estimates the urban housing shortage to be at 18.78 million. Rapid urbanization coupled with steady migration of people from rural to urban areas will continue to expand growth of urban housing and the demand for rapid construction methods to meet the demand.

 

 

INDUSTRIAL SEGMENT

 

Growing at a CAGR of 10% over the past five years, the per capita consumption of structural steel and PEB in India has reached about 6.2 Kgs now. Driven by large investments in industry and infrastructure, Steel Structures segment has witnessed a higher growth as compared to the Indian steel industry as well as the Indian construction industry. Demand for structural steel from building segments in India is less than 5% as compared to 65-70% in USA and 35-40% in UK.

 

Penetration of PEB in large traditional segments like power, chemicals, cement etc. is increasing. Also Small-scale industries, are recognizing the advantages of using PEB over conventional concrete buildings to control cost and time overruns.

 

The Rs.560 billion Indian warehousing industry is growing at over 10% annually. Modern ware housing accounts for only 15% of the market. With the arrival of organized players, modern warehousing is estimated to grow at a faster rate of 20-25% over the next 5 years.

 

 

ROOFING

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

Between the last two census surveys, the total rural housing stock has increased from 177.500 Millions units in 2001 to 220.600 Millions units in 2011. The total share of pucca roofing and RCC has increased from 45.5% in 2001 to 61.2% in 2011 With improvement in rural income (from farm and non-farm avenues), government thrust on rural housing and improving disposable income; customers are migrating from kutcha roofs to more durable and convenient pucca roofing solutions. Over the years, the use of clay tiles has been declining due to the non-availability of raw material and a rising preference of superior roofing material. Moreover, the pucca fibre cement roofing is very economical and costs just one-third of the cost of an RCC ceiling slab.

 

The fibre cement roofing industry in India has a capacity of 58 lac MT per annum and comprises of 6 national brands and 14 regional brands.

 

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

BOARDS AND PANELS

 

The Indian boards industry comprises of traditional products like plywood, laminates, and particle boards and new age modern building products like fibre cement boards and gypsym. The traditional market size is estimated at Rs.200000.000 Millions and the new age modern building products market size is estimated to be Rs.18000.000 Millions. The boards industry is highly fragmented and is currently dominated by plywood, laminate and particle boards. The inability of wood based products to meet diverse needs of customers such as resistance from fire, moisture, dampness and termites has increased the demand for modern building materials like Fibre Cement Boards and Gypsum Boards which address specific needs in construction.

 

 

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

 

·         The building products division’s revenue declined by 1.3% to Rs.7589.000 Millions in 2013-14 despite a realization growth of 3.2%. This was on account of sluggish demand due to high inflation and cost of construction throughout the country.

·         The operating profit of the division decreased by 59.0% from Rs.876.000 Millions in previous year to Rs.359.000 Millions during the year owing to increase in raw material costs, particularly imported fibre, employee cost and freight cost.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

With expected revival in economic activity, housing construction activities should also gain momentum. On the back of increasing rural income, rural housing growth is expected to accelerate over coming quarters.

 

With the right building solutions and products, deeper market penetration and strong customer equity, Everest Industries is positioned to benefit from the growing demand.

 

 

STEEL BUILDING SEGMENT

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

Steel buildings are fast emerging as an effective alternate to traditional brick and mortar ones in India. Offering advantages like speed and cost of construction, robustness and energy efficiency, it is the preferred method for industrial construction. Popular as Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEBs), it has widespread presence across North America and European countries. Compared to conventional construction, PEBs save construction time by 30-50%, are 100% customizable, highly flexible, durable and weather proof.

 

The Indian PEB market size is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 26.6%, from Rs.52970.000 Millions in 2012 to Rs.136120.000 Millions by 2016 The PEB industry, in early years of its introduction in India, recorded rapid growth. However, recent economic slowdown has impacted its growth momentum momentarily.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

Central government’s fast tracking of approvals on infrastructure and industrial projects during the second half of FY 14 are likely to boost the PEB industry. Construction activity, including those of industrial and commercial buildings, is likely to gain momentum over coming quarters. With a clear shift towards PEBs from conventional structures, the PEB segment would grow faster. With newly added capacities at a strategic location and increasing buyer interest in this building technique, the division is poised for rapid growth.
