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.

CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

Subject is a public company domiciled in India and incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. Its shares are listed on three stock exchanges in India. The company is engaged in the manufacturing and selling of Textile Spinning Machinery, CNC Machine Tools, Heavy Castings and parts and components for Aerospace industry. The company caters to both domestic and international markets.

 

 

OPERATIONS

 

During the year, the Company has recorded a turnover of Rs.18643.275 Millions (2011-12: Rs.20724.919 Millions) resulting in a Net Profit of Rs.1706.897 Millions before tax (2011-12: Rs.2233.940 Millions).

 

During the year the turnover has decreased by 10.04% over the previous year and consequently the profit has decreased by 23.59%. Increase in commodity prices, power and fuel expenses and under absorption of fixed costs has affected the profitability.

 

 

TEXTILE MACHINERY DIVISION

 

The Textile Machinery Division of the Company, during the year, has recorded a turnover of Rs.16287.957 Millions as against Rs.17532.951 Millions achieved during previous year. This represents a decrease of 7.10% over the previous year.

 

The Indian Textile Industry has experienced difficult conditions during 2012-13. Traditional markets for Indian textiles namely, USA and Europe are yet to recover from the effects of global financial crisis. More worrying is the fact that these important markets show no signs of any improvement in their economic status despite economic stimulus measures. Within India, all round industrial slow down and a growing inflation has affected growth in domestic demand. Acute power shortage, non availability of trained manpower and lack of clarity in Government policies and support has added to further woes.

 

In view of the prevailing uncertainty, Textile mills in India and abroad preferred to defer their capacity addition/modernization plans resulting in lower growth. High cost of self generated power, increase in commodity prices and under utilisation of capacity has contributed to the down trend.

 

However, the second half of the year witnessed an increased demand for yarn from China due to a change in the Yarn Import Policy of that country. As China meets with nearly 40% of the global garment requirements, exports of yarn from India are likely to increase in the near future. During the year despite the odds, stable cotton prices and increased yarn exports to china has improved the profitability of many textile mills in India.

 

The Union Budget for 2013-14 has given an impetus to the Indian Textile Industry in the form of continuation of the Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme during the 12th Five Year Plan period, removal of excise duty for readymade garments, sanction of additional funds for textile parks, extension of interest subvention schemes, inclusion of textiles under the Focus Product Scheme etc. These measures are expected to aid the recovery and growth of the Indian Textile Industry. Also it is encouraging to note that various State Governments in India have announced attractive schemes for establishment of Textile Spinning units as green field projects.

 

 

MACHINE TOOL DIVISION

 

During the year, this division has achieved a turnover of Rs.1444.264 Millions as against the turnover of Rs.2274.917 Millions recorded during the previous year showing a decrease of 36.51 % over last year.

 

Decline in turnover is due to the slowdown of industrial activity in the country particularly in the automotive, infrastructure, heavy engineering and construction industries. Competition from low cost unorganised Machine Tool manufacturers, import of second hand machinery and stiff competition from high tech overseas Machine Tool manufacturers have also led to a fall in volume.

 

During the year, this division has introduced 10new machines/variants of the existing product range. New products were displayed at exhibitions like IMTEX-2013, Bangalore, AMTEX -13 New Delhi and ACMEE-13 at Chennai and were well received. It is expected that when economic activity picks up in India, demand for these new products alongwith existing products is set to increase.

 

 

FOUNDRY DIVISION

 

Foundry Division has achieved a turnover of Rs.905.332 Millions as against Rs.917.007 Millions recorded during the previous year showing a marginal decrease of 1.27% over the previous year. This Division has exported castings worth Rs.652.262 Millions as against Rs.524.770 Millions made during the previous year. The export turnover constitutes 72.05% of the division’s turnover. The growth in exports is mainly on account of growing demand for locomotive castings due to the growth of railway locomotive business in North America and Europe.

 

Commencement of infrastructure projects like metro rail in major cities of the country, constant growth of renewal

energy segment, setting up of factories and/or International Procurement Offices (IPO) in India by MNCs manufacturing OE equipments, will give fillip to Foundry industry in India.

 

 

WIND ENERGY DIVISION

 

As a responsible corporate citizen, the Company continues to tap the non conventional and renewable resources of energy namely Wind Power. In an era of acute power shortage, wind energy occupies the centre stage in the energy policy of the Company. So far the Company has installed 28 wind mills with a total installed capacity of 36.80 MW. During the year this division has generated 945 lakh units as against 647 lakh units during the previous year.

 

 

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY CENTRE

 

The Company has established the Advanced Technology Centre to manufacture and supply high precision parts and components required for the Aerospace Industry. For this purpose, the Company has created infrastructure and capabilities that are accredited with the AS 9100 Rev B certification and the NADCAP approvals.

 

During the year this division has commenced commercial production and has achieved a maiden turnover of Rs.57.21 Millions. Product supply agreements have been concluded with leading original equipment manufacturers / sourcing intermediaries. A number of products are currently under customer validation process. These products are expected to bring more volume of business for this division in the years to come.

 

 

REAL ESTATE ACTIVITY

 

Directorate of Town and Country Planning has already approved the Real Estate project of the Company. Now, few more approvals are awaited and on receipt of the same the real estate project will be launched at an appropriate time.

 

 

AWARDS

 

During the year 2012-13 the Company has bagged the following Awards:

 

1) Star Performer Award for 2011-12 from Engineering Export Promotion Council of India.

2) Apex Export Award from the Textile Machinery Manufacturers Association of India.

3) Award for Research and Development from Textile Machinery Manufacturers Association of India.

 

 

MERGER OF LMW MACHINERY LIMITED

 

With the acquisition of the 50% stake held by Rieter Machine Works Limited in the erstwhile joint venture company Rieter- LMW Machinery Limited (RLM), RLM became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company effective from 16th August, 2011. The name of the said company has been changed to “LMW Machinery Limited” (LMWML) with effect from 2nd September, 2011 and was functioning as a separate company. LMWML has surrendered its 100% EOU license and has filed an IEM to manufacture and sell textile machinery in India and abroad.

 

As LMW and LMWML were pursuing the same line of business Management felt that it was appropriate to merge LMWML with LMW to achieve synergy in operations and to reduce overhead expenses. A petition to this effect, was filed before the Hon’ble High Court of Judicature at Madras praying for the merger of LMWML with LMW. The Hon’ble High Court of Judicature at Madras by an order dated 26th April, 2013 under CP No:33/2013 has approved the merger of LMWML with LMW effective from 1st April, 2012.

 

The standalone financial statements of the Company for the year 2012-13 include the performance of the erstwhile LMWML also.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW:

 

The Indian economy has logged a GDP growth rate of 5.0% during 2012-13 as against the growth rate of 6.50% recorded during 2011-12.

 

Both external and domestic factors have contributed to this trend. Large global economies continue to languish in recession leading to a slowdown in exports going out of India. Meanwhile, within India a lot has happened during 2012-13. Damage control measures were undertaken earlier by the Government to mitigate the effects of a global financial crisis leading to a stronger economic growth during 2009- 10 and 2010-11. Though consumption expanded, unexpectedly inflationary pressures also climbed. Threatened with an adverse public reaction to the increasing cost of living, the Reserve Bank of India had started to tighten its monetary policy. This in turn directly stunted the economy’s ability to grow during 2012-13. It is notable that this downturn has been felt uniformly across all industrial and service-based segments. During the same period India’s current account deficit has also widened due to higher oil prices and also due to increased import of gold.

 

In response to these conditions, the Government has tried to spur domestic growth momentum by increasing liquidity availability through measures such as catalysing investment and by curtailing subsidy outgo. Recently, the government has initiated numerous measures like allowing foreign direct investment in multi brand retail, aviation and broadcasting. It has opened up the pension sector for foreign investment and has raised the FDI cap in the insurance sector. It has also hiked the diesel prices and has reduced subsidy for petroleum products.

 

RBI is widely expected to start easing policy rates considering the moderation in inflation and also due to greater than anticipated slowdown in the growth rate. Consequentially, the presence of a huge domestic consumption market and easy liquidity conditions, private investment sentiment and corporate activity is expected to pick up shortly. This will boost efforts at infrastructure building and capacity creation within the country.

INDUSTRIAL OVERVIEW

 

The Indian textile industry is one among the leading textile industries of the world. In equal measure, it has an overwhelming presence in the economic life of the country. The textile industry not only provides with one of the basic necessities of life but also plays a vital economic role by contributing towards industrial output, employment

generation and forex generation through exports.

 

This sector contributes to about 14% of industrial production and 17% to India’s export earnings. This industry provides direct employment to about 35 million people. The textile sector is the second largest employer within India after agriculture. Growth and development of this industry has a direct bearing on the well-being of the Indian economy. Though the Indian textile industry has had a long tradition and heritage it was largely unorganized till a few decades back. Economic reforms of 1991 and the removal of the quota system in 2005 has changed this scenario completely. It is encouraging to note that the Indian textile industry today is characterised by the presence of both the volume and niche players.

 

Recently, yarn exports from India have improved due to a change in yarn import policy in China. Traditional markets like the US, the EU and Japan despite being constrained by economic recession continue to be important destinations for Indian textiles. The Indian textile industry is also blessed with a huge domestic market. However fundamental issues like inadequate power, shortage of manpower, reluctance to upgrade to contemporary technology, lack of clarity in governmental policy continue to plague the industry

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

Moderation in inflation rates, the expectation of a normal monsoon, removal of excise duty on the spun yarn and readymade garments would stimulate domestic demand. Growth in traditional markets and China is expected to boost external demand for the Indian textile industry augurs well for the Company.

 

 

MACHINE TOOL DIVISION

 

INDUSTRIAL OVERVIEW

 

India is the 18th largest manufacturer of machine tools in the world. The Indian machine tool industry consists of about 450 manufacturing units of which 150 are in the organised sector. Domestic manufacturers account for about 45% of consumption within the Indian machine tools market.

 

Since 2002, the Indian engineering sector especially the auto and auto ancillary sector has witnessed increased investments as global engineering giants have started outsourcing from India and have started to establish their manufacturing facilities based in India. This led to a spurt in demand for machine tools in India. Now the Indian machine tool industry is in a position to export the general purpose and standard machine tools to even industrially advanced countries.

 

The recessionary pressure of 2012-13 have severely impacted the industrial activity within India and as a result the growth of the Indian machine tools industry was hampered. However the recent revival in the index of industrial production can be construed as a harbinger of growth for the Indian machine tools industry.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

Globally India is recognised as a cost-effective manufacturing hub for engineering goods. The government is also implementing measures to increase the share of manufacturing in GDP to boost employment. The Company’s policy of continuous research and development gives it the ability to respond to market requirements.

 

 

FOUNDRY DIVISION

 

 

INDUSTRIAL OVERVIEW

 

The Indian foundry industry consists of 4,600 units capable of manufacturing nine million tonnes of castings per year. Recently, the foundry industry has been facing hurdles like inadequate power supply, non-availability of skilled manpower, lack of government support towards pollution control measures among others. The general economic slowdown has also impacted the Foundry Industry.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

Government’s commitment to improve infrastructural facilities to attract more foreign direct investment, undertaking of metro rail projects in all major cities, compulsion to install new power projects would all boost the demand for heavy castings.

 

Adoption of world-class manufacturing technology, introduction of a LEAN manufacturing programme, internal augmentation plan in the heavy moulding area, focused approach on customers in both the domestic and export markets will enable this division to perform well during FY 2013-14.

PRESS RELEASE

 

LAKSHMI MACHINE WORKS TO EXPAND CAPACITY

 

Chennai/ Bangalore January 27, 2011

Lakshmi Machine Works Limited (LMW), the Coimbatore-based a textile machines and machine tools manufacturer, is on an expansion mode. The company is set to expand its machine tool manufacturing capacity by 25-30 per cent to 150 machines per month from March this year to meet the growing demand.

 

“The demand for machine tools is increasingly from automobile and general engineering sectors to aerospace, defence and railways this year. Recently, we invested Rs 220.000 Millions to double our capacity to 120 machines per month. But this is not enough as we have got huge orders for the next one-year. So, we are planning to increase the capacity further,” I N Bhattacharya, deputy general manager - marketing and sales, LMW LIMITED, said.

 

LMW manufactures CNC lathes and machining centers for automobile companies, auto component manufacturers as well as Tier 1 and Tier 2 manufacturers of component conversion industry. The company, recently added mother machines in its portfolio and revamped its foundries to churn out castings faster, he said.

 

LMW is focusing on aerospace, defence and railways in a big way. Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) is one of the big customers from the aerospace sector for LMW. Its customers from the automobile sector includes Maruti Suzuki, Ashok Leyland, TVS Motors, Sundaram Fastners, Amalgamation Group, Tata Motors, Bosch and other Tier1 and Tier 2 suppliers.

 

Bhattacharya said the company’s order book position for CNC lathes is very strong currently and it has over Rs 1200.000 Millions worth of orders in hand, for which it would take seven months to deliver. The company is likely to close the current fiscal with a total turnover of Rs 1850.000 Millions, a growth of 91 per cent over the last year. During the next fiscal it is aiming at a growth of close to 50 per cent. “We witnessed the worst period during the year 2008-09, when our turnover was in the range of Rs 650.000 Millions. Last year was a good year, but this year, we are getting huge orders for CNC lathes from the automobile sector,” he said.

 

He said LMW has launched seven new machines including horizontal machining center and high speed turning center to cater to the huge demand from the automotive industry. It is also coming out with large machines with common applications for sectors like railway, defence and automobile for launch during the next fiscal.

 

The company would also provide end-to-end solutions in association with its sister concern, Quatro, he added.

 

 

CCI DROPS CASE AGAINST LAKSHMI MACHINE WORKS

 

New Delhi, February 20:  

Fair trade regulator CCI has closed the case against textile machine maker Lakshmi Machine for alleged abuse of dominant position in the market for “sale of spinning machinery for textiles”.

 

“ ... despite the fact that the opposite party (Lakshmi Machine Works) was a dominant player in the relevant market, mere increase in prices by the opposite party for valid economic reasons for all of its customers cannot amount to imposing of unfair or discriminatory conditions in purchase or sale of goods or services,” the Competition Commission of India (CCI) said in its order dated February 15.

 

In a complaint filed by Shahi Exports, it was alleged that Lakshmi Machine Works had increased the price of textile machineries it had ordered.

 

According to the order, during the arbitration proceedings with the complainant, Lakshmi Machine Works had submitted that the increase in price was due to increase in cost of inputs such as raw materials and labour, among others.

 

CCI noted that Lakshmi Machine Works had been “increasing the price of its products at regular intervals and it was not discriminating with any of its customers but had increased the prices for all of its customers alike”.
