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.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS:

 

The Registered office of the company has been shifted from 10/76 Apte Properties Opposite Dr. E Moses Road, Worli, Mumbai - 400018, Maharashtra, India to the present address w.e.f.18.06.2012.

 

 

BUSINESS

 

Turnover and Profits: During the financial year ended 31st March 2013, the operational revenue of the company on a standalone basis was flat at Rs. 3158.400 Millions vs. Rs. 3159.500 Millions in the previous year. The Profit before Tax was Rs.159.800 Millions vs Rs. 140.400 Millions in the previous year, while the net Profit after Tax for the financial year ended 31st March 2013 was Rs. 110.600 Millions vs. Rs. 109.800 Millions in the previous year (the tax provision being higher due to deferred tax).

 

 

GROSS OPERATIONAL INCOME - STANDALONE

 

The volatility faced during the year in consumer demand (impacting the branded business) and exchange rate fluctuations (impacting both the branded business and design-driven international business), have been unprecedented.

 

The branded business showed an overall marginal increase. The growth of the company's own retail business was in double digits with like-to-like store growth of just under 10%. Given the market scenario, and the fact that the company does not discount or offer soft terms on the Zodiac, Z3 and ZOD! brands, this is no mean achievement. This has covered ground lost due to weakness in business in the independent retailers' channel, as well as in the national chains. The share of pie of own retail has increased approximately 10% in the current year.

 

The design-driven international business has been extremely challenging due to the economic situation in the company's markets in the EU, the UK and the US. This has been further destabilised by the sharp exchange rate fluctuation and the increase in prices of cotton fabric in the second half of the year. The company has met with some success in increasing its business in its hitherto smaller markets, as well as entering some new markets, which show early promise.

 

The industry has been excluded from the purview of Excise from March 2013, as a result of which the export segment is greatly benefited, because they have been spared the cost and onerous job of coping (without the simplified procedure) with the compliance of Excise formalities needlessly.

 

The design-driven international business, notwithstanding lower volumes, increase in fabric prices during the second half of the year, higher depreciation and the benefit of the Rupee depreciation being eroded by stubborn inflation and customers insisting on lower USD prices, has remained profitable.

 

The Forex Policy has also contributed somewhat to the substantial reduction in exchange loss during the current year, despite extreme volatility of the exchange rates.

 

The Standalone PBT increased by 14%, through cost reduction/control, despite the increase in rentals (in pursuance of the focus on own retail), and the proviso for discarded assets (the non-viable stores closed during the year), which is heartening, given the market situation.

 

As of 31st March 2013, the company had 105 stores. 11 new stores were opened and 10 were closed during the year, a net increase of 1 store.

 

(All stores are company-owned, not franchised). The company’s strategy of investing in growth of its own retail business is being pursued steadfastly.

 

The outlook for the Branded business, including the Company's own retail stores, continues to look most promising in the medium to long term.

 

 

BRANDING

 

Zodiac, Z3 and ZOD! brands were neither discounted nor offered on soft terms, underscoring the increasing strength of the brands by virtue of the brands' continuing focus on value added innovation and consistent pursuit of higher quality. This has resulted in the company's product extensions continuing to gain ground.

 

The industry has been excluded from the purview of Excise from March 2013. The benefit for the Branded segment will become evident in terms of volume growth over a period of time. The export segment is greatly benefited, because they have been spared the cost and onerous job of coping (without the simplified procedure) with the compliance of Excise formalities needlessly.
