INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

N E W S

 

The economy grew 4.7 %in 2013/14, marking a second straight year of sub-5 % growth – the worst slowdown in more than a quarter of a century. 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.

He is the third CEO-hopeful to quit after Chairman N R Narayana Murthy’s return to the company – Ashok Vemuri and V Balakrishnan being the other two.While Vemuri went on to lead IGate, Balakrishnan joined politics.

 

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.

This is the second time that he has been taken into custody. A year, ago the Kerala Police had arrested Pinckney and two company directors on charges of financial irregularities.

 

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.

 

India has emerged as a country with some of the highest unregistered businesses in the world. Indonesia has the maximum number of shadow businesses, says a study of 68 countries by Imperial College Business School in London.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 2012-2013

 

OVERVIEW – YEAR 2012-13

 

STATE OF ECONOMY, INDUSTRY AND THEIR BUSINESS

 

The globalization of India has given rise to new opportunities but it has also brought with it new challenges. It means that the global economy can no longer be viewed from a spectator's standpoint. What happens globally has larger implications for India. The global economic situation remains far from stable and this is reflected in the prospects for India's growth. Most of the macro-economic data for India released recently indicates signs of moderation. The IIP growth has been languishing and growth rate of exports has been in the negative terrain for many months. Nonetheless, some key policy announcements undertaken last year did uplift the confidence levels and created optimism with regard to the future. However, the pickup in investment activity especially from foreign investors remains subdued.

 

As per the latest Advanced Estimates (AE) of the Central Statistics Office (CSO), growth in GDP at factor cost at constant prices was estimated at 5 per cent in 2012-13 as compared to the revised growth of 6.2 per cent in 2011-12. Index of Industrial Production ("IIP"), which is considered to be the barometer of Indian industrial growth, is expected to have grown by 0.9% during April - February 2012-13 vs. 3.5% growth during the same period last year. The average Wholesale Price Index (WPI) inflation rate for the last 12 months (April 12 to March 13) was 7.3% as compared to 8.9% during the corresponding period in 2011-12. (Source: Monthly Economic Report, March 2013 as published by the Ministry of Finance, Government of India).

 

The Indian health and wellness industry is set to double by 2015 if current trends continue, a joint report by industry body FICCI and advisory firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) said. At present, the sector is estimated at Rs. 590 billion and is growing at a CAGR of 18-20 per cent. Though traditional products continue to dominate the market at 60 per cent, consumer awareness of new forms of wellness products and services such as fortified foods, dietary supplements, cosmetic treatments and rejuvenation therapies is growing. The report also highlights that tier 2 and tier 3 cities offer headroom for growth but add that these markets require investments and long-term focus. "Many wellness segments extend beyond traditional gender boundaries traditional products and services continue to appeal to the Indian consumer, but these now need to meet modern sensibilities" according to the report.

 

The report further mentions that brands are becoming increasingly relevant for Indian consumers and that companies need to invest in communicating with consumers to remain salient. "Consumers are increasingly placing a high premium on their time, so wellness players have started bundling convenience along with health and beauty benefits" it says. It predicts that mainstream and generic wellness concepts in India will continue to dominate, while emerging niche categories are likely to result in new opportunities. Online channels too are expected to grow in relevance as a medium for interaction with consumers.

 

Increasing health awareness among Indian consumers due to rising media penetration is also helping the sector to grow. "Given high disposable incomes, consumers are taking into account health considerations as part of their purchasing decisions, with preventive care gaining more prominence over a curative approach to disease management", said Sandeep Ahuja, Chairman, FICCI National Wellness Committee. The FICCI-PwC report further adds that the per capita spend on wellness has jumped from Rs 300 in 2008 to over Rs 480, last year.

 

Company has been a niche and significant player in this growing market with its portfolio of health care brands viz. Sugar Free, Everyuth, Nutralite and Actilife. These brands have been driving, contributing and participating in growing the health and wellness market in this country.

 

The year has witnessed a strong performance from the company. During 2012-13, the Company recorded gross sales of Rs.4100 Mio. up by 19% and a net profit of Rs.971 Mio., up by 43.5% on a consolidated basis. The company took several initiatives during the year to strengthen its brands and its leadership position. These are outlined below:

 

 

SUGAR FREE - INDIA'S LARGEST SELLING LOW CALORIE SWEETENER

 

Sugar Free has maintained its leading position in the low calorie sugar substitute category with a market share of more than 90% as of March 31, 2013. Both Sugar Free Gold, an aspartame based sweetener and Sugar Free Natura, which is sucralose based, have maintained their top slots. With this strong market share, Sugar Free continues to be the driving force for overall category growth.

 

The brand's comeback to high growth trajectory was driven by strong marketing support in the form of a new theme campaign with endorsement by a new celebrity and integrating all products on one platform. The brand's multi-product presence with Sugar Free Gold and Natura across different product formats like pellets, powders and drops gives the consumer a broad basket of choices. While there have been new entrants into the category, the strength of the brand's equity has allowed an enhanced market share and a prominent retail presence. Given the low household penetration levels of sugar substitutes, the Company's focus will be category development in the future as the route to generating strong growth.

 

 

EVERYUTH - CELEBRATING YOUTH!

 

The everyuth range of skin-care products maintained its leadership position in the scrubs and peel-off category while the face wash category continued to experience aggressive competition.

 

Reflecting the aspirations of the modern Indian consumer and with a view to being relevant and contemporary, the Company re-launched the brand with new exciting packaging, improved formulations for superior performance and aesthetics and a powerful new marketing programme. A new celebrity has been signed on as the brand ambassador who now features in all advertising, point of sale and outdoor communication. The company also launched new variants of face washes (Radiant Fairness, Pollution Defense, Aloe and Skin Balancing Grape), two new variants of Scrubs (Radiant Fairness Strawberry Scrub and Foot Scrub) and re-launched the everyuth Menz line with new modern packaging and a high technology whitening cream. As part of a broader distribution expansion drive, the Company has also entered the soap category and launched its first range of transparent soaps in Lemon, Fruit and Neem variants. Plans are in place to expand the product portfolio further and improve distribution reach backed by strong advertising and promotional support to keep everyuth on a high paced growth going forward.

 

 

NUTRALITE - 'HEALTH FIRST, TASTE ALWAYS'

 

The table spread category has recorded subdued growth rates throughout the year. There have also been multiple launches from low priced competitors with a focus on the price conscious institutional customers. Despite this, Nutralite has maintained its dominant position in margarine category through a commitment to quality and service. In retail, the Company has expanded its product portfolio with the launch of a premium variant, Nutralite with Omega 3. This launch has strengthened the health positioning of the brand and created a platform for future growth. The launch has been backed by strong advertising and trade activations resulting in a positive consumer response. It was voted 'Product of the Year 2013' based on an independent survey conducted amongst 18000 consumers in India undertaken by global research agency AC Nielsen. This prestigious award is reserved for products which have excelled in innovation and in delivering consumer satisfaction. An additional flavor variant with cheese has also been added to the portfolio. Both the products are free of trans fats and are fortified with Vitamins A, D and E.

 

In the year ahead, the Company expects to continue focusing on expanding the product portfolio and building an awareness of the health benefits of the brand with a view to grow the consumer base.

 

 

ACTILIFE - NUTRITION FOR ADULTS

 

Actilife was launched in 2011 as a nutritional milk additive for adults. To create this new concept the Company has been investing in education through advertising, sampling programs and in-store activations. As with any new idea, the lead time for its adoption is often fairly long and the Company is diligent in its approach while refining the marketing support programs to achieve business goals.

 

As a strategy, the Company is also looking at line extensions aggressively across the different categories where it competes. All brands in the portfolio have strong equity with consumers and ready acceptance in the trade. This allows the Company to bring innovative new products to the market and drive growth by leveraging its strong health care heritage.

 

With a continued focus on strengthening its existing portfolio, expanding distribution to reach a wider consumer base and launch of innovative products in the wellness domain, the Company is confident of achieving its long term goals and bringing wellness to the lives of every Indian.
