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.
General Motors will start exporting vehicles
from its Talegaon plant near Pune in the second half of 2014. GM was one of the
few global carmakers that was using its India plant only for the domestic
market.
Google has overtaken Apple as the world’s top
brand in terms of value, according to global market research agency Millward
Brown. Google’s brand value shot up 40 % in a year to $ 158.84 billion. The top
10 of the 100 slots were dominated by US companies.
Infosys lost another heavy weight when B G
Srinivas, a board member put in his papers. 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.
William S Pinckney – Chairman and CEO of
Amway India was arrested by the Andhra Pradesh Police in connection with a
complaint against the direct selling firm. 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.
Pfizer has abandoned its attempt to buy
AstraZeneca for nearly $ 118 billion after the latter refused an offer of 55
pounds a share.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The global water market
The world’s supply of
available freshwater is finite and never before in the recorded history of
mankind has this finiteness become more evident. Consider these realities:
·
Some 783m people the world over lack access to
clean drinking water with 2.6bn having no access to proper sanitation. The one
reason why these numbers are causing alarm is because of a worsening supply
side (insufficient freshwater, uneven distribution, poor quality, non-revenue
water, climate change) and demand side (rapidly growing use by agriculture,
industry, and municipal/residential sectors).
·
There has been an unprecedented growth in global population
in the last 40 years – to nearly seven billion today. There is manifold surge
in freshwater demand across agriculture, energy, industry and domestic
applications. Scientists have estimated that they withdraw about 50% of
globally accessible and renewable water on an annual basis and this is set to
increase as the world’s population touches 9.4 billion by 2050.
·
Demand for water is expected to overshoot supply by
40% in the next 20 years with half the world’s population living under ‘water
stress’ conditions by 2030. What the oil shock causedin the early Seventies is
now likely to happen in the area of water, translating into probable social and
political unrest.
·
Declining freshwater sources: Freshwater accounts
for 2.5-3% of the total water on the planet, most of which is locked in two polar ice
caps. Ground water (critical source of potable water for the world’s major
cities) makes up about only 30% of freshwater resources whereas lakes, rivers,
wetlands and different soil types account for 1.2% of freshwater. Freshwater
ecosystems are estimated to have declined 37% since the 1970s with certain
segments with tropical freshwater having declined 70%. As a result, an
estimated 2.7 bn people are now living in water catchment areas (e.g., river
basins) with water scarcity for at least a month in a year.
·
Skewed distribution: In theory, there is enough
water to satisfy all human needs on a sustainable basis but in reality, nine
countries (Brazil, Russia, United States, Canada, China, Colombia, Indonesia
and Peru) possess close to 60% of the world’s freshwater resources while nearly
46 countries suffer conditions that can be described as ‘water stress’ to
‘water scarcity’.
·
Varying quality: There is a rising instance of
urban fresh water pollution arising from inappropriate land use and poor water treatment.
Chemical fertiliser run-offs are creating excessive nutrient concentrations in
sea and oceans (+ 10% to 20% in the next 30 years). Irrigation is reducing the
capacity of rivers to transport sediments.
·
Others: There are other concerns like changes in
the hydrological cycle, and rainfall patterns, rising sea levels and saltwater
mixing with freshwater.
The first signs of this
grimness translating into market reality are evident. The global slowdown
notwithstanding, the global water market represents US$500bn sector growing at
a CAGR of 6-7%, well above the global growth rates across various sectors. This
higher-than-average growth is being catalysed by water scarcity, population
growth, urbanisation, industrial growth, infrastructure development, pricing,
rising private sector investment, food and energy security, stakeholder
pressure and tightening regulation.
By 2020, the water industry
could be worth US$1tn, marked by robust growth coming out of the water
treatment, water management, water infrastructure and supply segments.
HIGHLIGHTS, 2012-13
·
Implemented a project management module making it
possible for the engineer to check project development without visiting the
sites
·
Completed the design for a desalination project for
the Tata Group
·
Completed the designing for an ultra-pure water
plant in solar cell manufacturing facility
·
Standardised a de-mineralisation plant to reduce
the bill of quantity and shrink the project life cycle

a) The Company had been claiming
deduction under section 80-IA of the Income Tax Act, 1961 from the financial
year ended 31 March 2002 as a developer of infrastructure projects in India.
The Finance Act 2009 amended the provisions of Section 80-IA retrospectively
with effect from 01 April 2000 to make it inapplicable for persons having a
mere works contract with the government or statutory authority. The Company
believes that this amendment is in line with the objective of the government of
incentivising only a developer of infrastructure facility and not a mere works
contractor. The Company strongly opines that, being a developer of
infrastructure turnkey development contracts starting from the
conceptualisation to execution assuming significant financial commitment and
risks, the Company would be treated as a developer and the amendment would not
apply to it. Based on a legal opinion from a Senior Counsel, the Company has
filed a writ petition in the High Court of Madras challenging the
Constitutional validity of the retrospective amendment. Also, the Company has
subsequently received favourable Appellate Orders from CIT (Appeals) from
financial years 2001-02 to 2006-07 allowing the benefit under section 80-IA of
the Income Tax Act, while, the Income Tax department has raised a demand for
Rs.939 lakhs denying benefit under section 80-IA for the financial year
2008-09. Considering these facts and as a matter of prudence, the Company has
presented the total tax benefit so far claimed u/s 80-IA as contingent
liability in the financial statement for 31 March 2013. However, on a
conservative basis the liability on account of possible denial of deduction
prospectively from 01 April 2009 has been fully provided as current tax in the
respective years.
b) The Company, also based
on an opinion taken from a professional firm believes that the interest under
section 234B on account of 80-IA disallowance discussed in paragraph ‘a’ above
amounting to Rs.196.800 Millions as at 31 March 2013 would not be payable as
the Jurisdictional High Court rulings and various assessment orders commencing
from financial year 2001-02 are in favour of the Company on this aspect and on
this basis, the amount of interest has been disclosed as contingent liability.
c) The additional liability
assessed by sales tax authorities for various financial years from 2002-03 to
2008-09 amounts to Rs.39.500 Millions.

VA TECH WABAG TO GAIN FROM GOVERNMENT'S URBAN
INFRASTRUCTURE PUSH
30 January, 2014
VA Tech Wabag, which
focuses on technology, design and engineering services related to water
treatment, is looking to gain from the government's urban infrastructure push.
With urbanisation
on the rise and an improvement in the standard of living, demand for quality
water services is increasing, said Rajiv Mittal, managing director, VA Tech
Wabag, which is based in Chennai in India. "We are poised well to
participate in this growth story."
The company's
business can be divided into two major segments - engineering procurement and
construction (EPC), which accounts for 69 per cent of its revenue, and
operating and maintenance (O&M), which accounts for the rest. Around 73 per
cent of its business comes from projects awarded by municipal bodies, the rest
from companies. The margin in municipal work is 13-14 per cent and 8-10 per
cent in the second category, said S Varadarajan, chief financial officer.
The company
follows an asset light business model. The civil work related to a water
treatment project, which entails fixed costs, is outsourced while the design
and engineering is done by the company. It has an order book of Rs.66050.000
Millions, of which 57 per cent is EPC business. Decentralisation of operations
has helped the company reduce the cost of operations. Established in Austria in
1924, a high-cost economy, the company has diversified geographically to India,
Turkey, the Philippines and Algeria.
In the past five
fiscal years, 'other expenses' have plunged -- to Rs322.000 Millions in FY13
from Rs.2930.000 Millions in FY09. "For us, costs of operations in
emerging economies make sense," Mittal said. "Barring raw material,
which changes as and when geography changes, we have been able to reduce our
costs of operations by sheer focus on emerging economies."
This has enhanced
the company's financial performance in the past five years. Net sales have
grown at a compounded annual growth rate of 10 per cent to Rs.16030.000
Millions in FY13, while net profit has grown at a CAGR of 26.5 per cent to
Rs.890.000 Millions in the same period.
Having a
debt-equity ratio of less than 1, the company is well poised to participate in
the Indian desalination water market, which according to research firm Tech
Archival, will grow at a CAGR of 30 per cent from 2013 to 2018 and reach a capacity
of 5.35 million cubic metres per day.
