INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The worst is over for India’s economy with gross domestic product likely to expand 5 %to 5.5 % this year and more than 6 % in 2015, according to Moody’s Analytics. Concerns over the rupee and current account deficit are under control, said the agency. Ratings firm Crisil has forecast 6 % growth for 2014/15 up from the estimated 4.8 % for 2013/14.  Total economic growth, infrastructure bottlenecks and lack of transparency and consistency in foreign direct investment policies seem to have taken a toll on India’s attractiveness as an investment destination, says an Ernst & Young survey.  Projects with FDI component fell 16.4 % across the globe in 2012 from the previous year.  The drop in India was steeper at 21 %. State run carrier Air India is doling out free tickets to its 24000 employees, even as it expects to incur a loss of Rs 39000 mn this financial year and has a debt of Rs 350000 mn. 550000 number of jobs generated across India in 2013, a fall of 0.4 % as compared to with a year earlier. The National  Capital Region has a one-fourth share in total jobs created, according to a study by industry lobby group Assochem, Banks, real estate, automobile and telecommunications sectors are showing a rise of job creation. $ 805 mn investments by venture capital firms in India during 2013, registering a drop of about 18 % over the previous year. The Information Technology and IT-Enabled  Services Industry retained its status as the favourable venture capital investors in 2013. Pakistan has temporarily banned gold imports for the second time in six months, as it tries to stem smuggling into India. India’s import duty on gold is 10 % and curbs on purchases have dried up legal imports into what used to be the world’s biggest bullion buyers. The World Gold Council puts the amount smuggled into India at upto 200 tonnes in 2013. The Reserve Bank of India has proposed that unclaimed bank deposits estimated to be about Rs 35000 mn be used for education and awareness among depositors.  According to the plan, deposits that have not been claimed for at least 10 years will be transferred to the scheme.

OPERATIONS:

 

Sales of the Company were lower by 11% in F13. The continued slowdown in Construction, Engineering, Infrastructure, Automobile, Electrical Switchgear industries impacted both the compound and component sales.  Company produces SMC/DMC compounds and sells them to Electrical Switchgear OEMs and their moulding vendors. The Company itself moulds a portion of these compounds to produce automotive components and own products like ‘Electra’ and ‘Sarovar’. Component business was down by 19% and the compound business by 6%. However Company could retain the overall market share in the business.

 

Though the component business was significantly lower than the previous year, Electra received better orders and as a result its sales grew by 16%. Last year’s investment to increase product range is giving results. However some of the orders received have been postponed to next year due to slow movement in infrastructural development in the country. Electra is being used in 8 states and is reaching the mark of 300,000 units sold.

 

Company has launched new product, SMC Panel Water Tank with brand name ‘Sarovar’ on Mahindra Group’s founder day 2nd October, 2012. During Q4, they bagged substantial orders which will fructify into sales next year.

 

Rising input cost and rupee depreciation continue to reduce margins. Although initiatives of using alternative materials and sources resulted in limiting this impact, reduced volumes in market did not allow passing on all the cost increase to customers. The precision dispensing system has been commissioned for reducing waste and increasing consistency of product performance.

 

The Company has emphasized sustainability and both the plants have been certified for ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. This is helping to control wastages.

 

SCHEME OF AMALGAMATION:

 

As a part of Mahindra Group Strategy to consolidate the auto components business and formation of global alliance with CIE Automotive, Spain, the Board of Directors of the Company at their meeting held on June 15, 2013, duly considering the recommendation of the Audit Committee and subject to regulatory approvals, have approved a Scheme of Amalgamation under Section 391 to 394 of the Companies Act, 1956, involving the Company, the Mahindra Forgings Limited ("Transferee Company"), with effect from 1st October, 2013.("The Scheme").

 

The Scheme is the second step in the formation of the global alliance and will be filed post the completions of the conditions precedents to the relevant agreements and the closing of the share transfer of three companies viz. Mahindra Forgings Limited, Mahindra Hinoday Industries Limited and Mahindra Composites Limited by Mahindra and Mahindra Limited to CIE Group. The Scheme once filed will be subject to the requisite approvals. M/s. N M Raiji and Company, Chartered Accountants and M/s. S R Batliboi and Company LLP have recommended a share exchange ratio of 90 Equity shares of Rs.10/- each in Mahindra Forgings Limited for every 100 Equity shares of Rs.10/- each held by the shareholders of Mahindra Composites Limited. SBI Capital Markets, Merchant Bankers have provided the fairness opinion on the share exchange ratio.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW

 

Subject is one of India's leading players in the field of composites supplying SMC/DMC compounds and components to the electrical switchgear, power distribution, automotive and medical equipment industry. MCL operates out of two plants, one at Mangaon, Dist. Raigad and the other in Pimpri, Pune. The plant at Mangaon has a capacity of 15000 MT of SMC/DMC compound manufacturing. The SMC/DMC component manufacturing plant at the same location has 6 compression moulding presses ranging from 100 MT to 500 MT capacities. There are also 3 RTM stations and hand-lay-up setup to manufacture components. The plant at Pimpri houses additional 6 compression moulding presses along with an innovation lab which focuses on product concept, design and engineering.

 

They sell SMC/DMC compounds to electrical switchgear OEMs like L and T, Schneider, Legrand, Siemens and ABB etc. who in turn sell switchgears largely to the construction industry. The electrical switchgear industry is the key end user of the company’s products and accounts for almost 70% of MCL’s revenue.

 

They sell moulded components to the power distribution industry, under the brand name ‘Electra’.

 

They sell moulded body parts with and without painting to Auto and Tractor OEMs. The component business for both the electrical and automotive market has been developed in the last few years.

 

INDUSTRY OUTLOOK

 

F13 saw a slow down as it was in F12 in the Electrical Switch Gear Industry influenced mainly by the slowdown in the Construction Industry and new industrial projects getting stalled or postponed. This phenomenon is expected to reduce growth of the domestic switchgear market in the coming years. The sales of leading electrical switchgear OEMs have also been impacted. There is also increasing competition in this market with the entry of new manufacturers of SMC/DMC compounds with the latest manufacturing know-how.

 

The power distribution market remained flat during the year. Consequently, the implementation of power infrastructure projects is slowing down.

 

The automotive market is accepting new applications of composites products but as an industry it also slowing down resulting in postponement of development and new launches by OEMs.

 

PERFORMANCE

 

Due to slowdown in our target industries (electrical switchgear, power distribution and automotive industries) our compound and component volumes were low as compared to F12. However, Company has retained overall market share in-spite of increased competition. They have launched new product panelled water tank named “Sarovar” in Indian market and bagged good orders for F14.

 

OUTLOOK F-14

 

The Company has taken up a modest target for growth.

 

Electrical Switch Gear OEMs have predicted almost flat sales as F13 and they will focus on optimising profitability in this segment. However there are new entrants in this market whom MCL had approached for product approvals and successfully obtained and it will ensure that there is growth in the medium term.

 

In F14 we will ensure that the “Electra” orders in hand are pushed to the market in the power distribution segment. The “Channel Partner” network to sale “Sarovar” will be increased to cover the sales in country and significant revenue will be added during F14.Given the current and expected slowdown in the approval of infrastructure projects, the GRP Pipe Project was put on hold and as a matter of abundant precaution the expected expenses as a result of holding of a project were already provided for in F12. Since there is no change in market situation, they will continue with our decision.
