INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

US investment bank Goldman Sachs  has upgraded its outlook on Indian markets as it expects positive impact of the election cycle.

 

India’s economy may grow 4.7 % in the current financial year, lower than the official estimate of 4.9 %, Fitch Rating said. The global rating agency expects the economy to pick up in the next two financial years.

 

Global ratings agency Standard & Poor said increasing focus by India Inc on lowering debt is likely to improve their credit profiles.

 

Singapore (1.1 million Indian tourists in 2012), Thailand (one million), the United Arab Emirates ().98 million) and Malaysia ().82 million) emerged as the preferred holidays hotspots for Indians. The total figure is expected to increase to 1.93 million by 2017, according to the latest Eurmonitor international report.

 

There is a $29.34 bn outward foreign direct investment by domestic companies between April and January of 2013/14 which has seen some signs of recovery according to a Care Ratings report.

 

There are 264 number of new companies being set up every day on average during 2014. Most of them are registered in Mumbai. India had 1.38 million registered companies at the end of January, 2014.

 

Twitter like messaging service Weibo Corporation has filed to raise $ 500 million via a US initial public offering. Alibaba, which owns a stake in Weibo is expected to raise about $ 15 billion New York this year in the highest profile Internet IPO since Facebook’s in 2012.

 

Bharti Airtel has raised Rs.2,453.2 crore (350 million Swiss Francs) by selling six-year bonds at a coupon rate of three per cent and maturing in 2020. This is the largest ever bond offering by an Indian company in Swiss Francs. Bharat Petroleum Corporation raised 175 million Swiss Francs by selling five year bonds at 2.98 % coupon rate in February.

 

Indian Oil Corporation plans to invest Rs 7650 crore in setting up a petrochemical complex at its almost complete Paradip refinery in Odhisha in three to four years. The company board is set to consider the setting up of a 700000 tonne per annum polypropylene plant at an estimated cost at Rs.3150 crore.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

GLOBAL ECONOMIC SCENARIO:

 

The world economy continued to face challenges and uncertainties throughout the year 2012-13. However, some respite was seen from the effect of the double dip recession in few of the major world economies, particularly in the countries where Government and Central Banks both made concentrated and concerted efforts to boost the growth. This was also supported by aggressiveness and ease with which the favourable monetary policies were implemented. It was evident mainly in developed European Countries like Germany and France, and U.S.A. Such countries also facilitated flow of capital in emerging market.

 

Despite existing shortcomings in global market, the general economic scenario has somewhat stabilized with short term outlook, in light of the recent corrective steps taken by U.S.A. and Euro-zone countries. The second half of the year 2012-13 in particular improved the global economic scenario by averting the danger of the Euro-zone split and the drastic reversal steps by U.S.A. to avoid sudden spurt in economy as a result of the fiscal overdose.

 

As against this, some of the countries in the emerging market economies like India, China, Brazil and Far-East Nations, which were still on fast track and had shown continuous improvement in the year 2011-12, started feeling tired and had a noticeable slowdown. The economic scenario of the Middle-East and African countries was a blend of both, improvement and slowdown. Economy of some countries in these regions was affected by political uncertainties. Overall growth was driven by recovery in demand and prices of both oil and gas. To an extent, economy of some Gulf countries like U.A.E., Oman, Qatar, Saudi, etc. showed growth on account of non-oil factors like heavy spending on large infrastructure, social and public utility projects, etc., which heavily stimulated demand in the region, thereby stimulating growth.

 

With slow but steady spurt in economic activities in developed economies like Europe and U.S.A., the recovery and growth process is expected to continue slowly and gain momentum in the medium to long run. US economy by its size and impacting effect over the global economy is playing a lead role. However, there still persists the medium and long term risk of some Euro-zone countries failing, or economies of US or Japan facing fiscal difficulties like higher unemployment or slowing down of output. Jitters are also felt by China’s economy sending out signals of slowing down. As a direct fall-out of this, emerging market economies may no more be able to maintain its control and influence over revival of the world economy, as they were able to do in last two fiscal years.

 

Increased economic inequality and widening gap between rich and poor has been the main cause of discontent amongst the sufferers and the left-outs, leading to growth of terrorism and socio-politico revolution in some parts of the world. This and the rise of nuclear family system on account of increasing urbanization and development have raised the crime rates. All these have boosted for increased feeling of insecurity. Besides growing terrorism, new legislations and technological advances are driving world Electronic Security Market.

 

INDIAN ECONOMIC SCENARIO:

 

Indian economy, which to some extent was insulated from global turmoil in 2011-12, also felt the heat in the financial year 2012-13, the clear indication for the same being reporting of GDP growth of about 5%, the lowest in the decade. Although, the downfall in economic growth had started a year back, it was accelerated in 2012-13. Further, it extended from industrial sector to service sector, thereby adversely affecting the main source of India’s economic growth.

 

Year 2012-13 witnessed economic weakness in the structural as well as cyclical form. The debacle of investment and industrial growth output was to some extent on account of policy uncertainties, higher input cost and supply bottlenecks. Unfavourable nature, particularly weaker monsoon, adversely affected the agro sector, which is still the backbone of Indian economy. Implementations of existing projects, particularly in heavy industries, power and in large sector, were also adversely affected on above counts. Throughout 2012-13, the Government persistently tried to fight and curb the inflation, but hardly achieved success. All these, coupled with tight monitoring policy of the Reserve Bank of India, persistent weakening of Indian Rupee against US Dollar and other major currencies of the world, worsening current account deficit, further added to the woe.

 

Impact of slow down was evident across all economic sectors, i.e. agriculture, industrial (mainly manufacturing, power, mining and capital goods) and service. With Government spending coming down heavily, consumption was also adversely affected along with slow down in investments.

 

Business and investment scenario was marred by delayed and adverse policy decisions, higher interest rate, liquidity crunch, and persistent slow down in industrial, agro and service sectors. As an effect, ongoing projects were either dropped or postponed. Corporates, PSUs and Government, all started differing their new capital expenditure and projects. All the above adversities have affected the Company also. Not only it faced challenges in getting new business, but its margin also remained under pressure. Margins were under pressure due to two reasons; escalation in cost of inputs on one side and inability to pass on the burden of increased cost elements to consumers on account of competition on the other side. Despite all the above challenges, the Company could turn up remarkable results on both standalone as well as consolidated basis.

With the last quarter of the year expected to show still better performance, the current year will end up with commendable performance.

 

Riding on the wave of economic recovery in the Gulf Region, Unisafe Dubai and Phoenix Qatar, both, have reported remarkable performance. The fire safety business in Middle-East has been a major contributor to the topline and bottomline of the Company.

The Indian business has also shown encouraging result, however, the exchange rate fluctuation kept margin under pressure. Zicom on standalone has shown an increase of 19% and 30% in the topline and bottomline respectively. Besides, performance of Zicom SaaS has also been encouraging.
