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.

GLOBAL ECONOMIC REVIEW

 

                      The global economy is estimated to have posted 3.2% growth in 2012, marginally lower than 3.9% in 2011. The US, the world’s largest economy, is expected to have posted better numbers (2.3% in 2012 against 1.8% in 2011) while the Eurozone is expected to have reported a negative growth of 0.4%. Much of this growth decline is estimated to have extended to fast-growing emerging markets: China’s growth slowed from 9.3% to 7.8% in 2012. Going ahead, growth in emerging and developing economies is expected to rise to 5.5% in 2013

 

INDIAN ECONOMY

 

           The slowdown of the Indian economy worsened as the country posted a growth of 5% in 2012- 13 against 6.2% in 2011-12. An erratic monsoon and drought-like situation in many parts affected the growth of the country’s agriculture sector. The decelerated growth was primarily attributable to the weakness in the industrial sector (mining and quarrying, manufacturing, electricity, gas and water supply, and construction) at 3.1% while the Manufacturing sector grew by 1.9%.The growth of the services sector was lower at 6.6% in 2012-13 against 8.2% in 2011-12.

 

 

 

OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE:

 

                       During the year, rainfall in India was erratic. There was delay in the arrival of the monsoon, adversely affecting the kharif crops. Although in the later part, the monsoon picked up which turned out to be favorable for the rabbi crops. However, in most parts of the country, there was drought-like situation. Due to water shortage, cotton and rice acreage in the country decreased. Herbicide application in rice and soya bean came down. During the year, it was heartening to note that apart from the Northern states of the country, the Eastern states are also being classified as food baskets for the country with improved production of many food and vegetable crops.

                     This is a good sign for the country which can take credit for being one of the leading producers of the world for soya bean, cotton, sugarcane, rice and certain cereals.

                     On the global front, Latin American countries like Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, among others, witnessed higher demand for Company’s agrochemicals. In the US, initial planting of corn started on a good note. However, due to droughts in later part of the season, farmers shifted the production to other crops. This had an adverse impact on sales.

                    The prices of most of the inputs were stable during the year. The commodity prices, except cotton, sustained or rose slightly.

                   During the year, the US dollar became stronger against most major currencies. In India, a very tight monetary policy with high interest rates was followed to bring down inflation but this impacted the overall economic growth very badly. However, of late, there have been signs of inflation easing out which gives hopes for reduction in rates of interest in the near future.

                    The economic scenario is changing. The world seems to be coming out of recession witnessed in last five years. The US economy is showing definite signs of revival. In Europe, some of the countries are still suffering and it will take more time for these countries to revive their economies.

                    It is heartening to note that Company’s sales are going up in all parts of the world, be it the US, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. Latin American markets, especially Brazil, have emerged as very prospective markets and in the years to come, there is a very high potential to improve the sales in these markets.

                   During the year, despite sluggish conditions in most of the markets, the Company has performed very well. Some of the highlights of global performances are as under:

(a) Revenue from operations has increased by 20% to Rs.92940 Millions .

(b) EBIDTA has gone up by 19%.

(c) Profit before taxes have gone up by 30% to Rs.9450 Millions .

(d) Profit for the year has gone up by 39% to Rs.7750 Millions .

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK:

 

                  For the coming year, with a normal monsoon predicted for India the Company’s performance in India is likely to improve. On the global front, the potential of Latin American market looks robust, especially Brazil. With commodity prices expected to be stable or slightly rising, offtake of agrochemicals will improve. The Company has taken many initiatives in terms of supply chain management which will reduce the overall cost of production for the Company. The Company is also entering new potential markets, such as South Africa, Philippines, among others. Over the next five years, the Company is poised to register high growth.
