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.

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.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDIAN ECONOMY

 

India’s economic growth decelerated for the second year in succession in 2012-13 from 6.2 percent in 2011- 12 to 5 percent in 2012-13 (advance estimates), its slowest economic growth in a decade. Economic moderation was due to a decline in the growth of all GDP constituents – agriculture, Industry and Services. Besides, deceleration in credit flows, policy uncertainty, infrastructural bottlenecks, high input costs, slowdown in consumer expenditure and subdued business confidence contributed to the overall slowdown.

 

To counter a challenging environment, the Central Government has sought to implement several important policies:

 

·         Reducing interest rates to create a stronger investment climate;

 

·         Reviving stressed infrastructure; fasttracking large infrastructure projects;

 

·         Using the buffer stock to moderate food inflation;

 

·         Introducing FDI in multi-brand retail and aviation (already implemented);

 

·         Partial deregulation of the oil and gas sector (diesel pricing) to reduce fuel subsidy and hence cut the current account deficit (CAD).

 

An economic survey indicates that the Indian economy could grow between 6.1–6.7 percent in 2013-14 while CRISIL estimates that the Indian economy could grow at 6.7 percent in 2013-14 due to a consumption revival catalyzed by acceleration in the agricultural sector, lower interest rates and higher governmental spending.

 

GLOBAL INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

 

Usage

 

Global demand for refined Lead metal is forecast to rise by 3.4 percent to 10.80 mn tonnes in 2012, to 11.15 mn tonnes in 2013;

 

In China, Lead-acid battery production and exports have recovered strongly after the wide-ranging environmentally-motivated cutbacks in 2011 and Lead metal usage is expected to grow by 4.7 percent in 2013;

 

Despite a small reduction in shipments of replacement automotive Lead-acid batteries, it is widely anticipated that demand for Lead in the US will increase by 0.6 percent in 2013 principally driven by growth in the original equipment and industrial battery sectors;

 

European demand is expected to be adversely affected by declining automotive sales and is expected to remain flat in 2013.

 

Supply

 

World Lead mine production has risen to 5.21 mn tonnes in 2012 and is expected to grow by 2.8 percent to 5.36 mn tonnes in 2013;

 

These increases are almost entirely due to the further expansion of production levels in China with the outputs around the world forecast to be relatively stable as rises in Mexico, Peru and the Russian Federation are largely offset by a reduction in Canada;

 

Expected rise in refined Lead metal output by 3.8 percent to 11.32 mn tonnes in 2013 has been influenced both by the establishment of new capacities and by the reopening of existing ones placed on maintenance over the recent past.

 

Domestic battery overview

 

The Indian automobile battery industry is pegged at about Rs. 200000.000 Millions (organised sector: Rs.120000.000 Millions) and the market is divided into OEMs and replacements.

 

The steady growth in automotive batteries aftermarket in India is attributed to burgeoning sales across all vehicle segments. As batteries are nondiscretionary replacement products, the demand for them is expected to continue to rise. High replacement rates are also acting as a catalyst. Lead constitutes almost 70 percent of the cost of inputs of a battery
