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.

OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

 

During the  year  the  operations of  the Company were affected due  to general economic  slow-down aggravated by  cut-throat  competition  from  overseas  polyol  suppliers.  On account of these, there was some setback in the operations vis a  vis  the  performance  in  the  last  couple  of  years,  resulting  in lower  production,  sales  and  profits. The net profit for the year was lower by about 37% at Rs.273.100 Millions against Rs.436.800 Millions in the previous year.

 

Availability of bio mass fuel for the Captive Power Plant (CPP) has become dearer due to spurt in demand for casuarina wood from paper mills and also similar power plants. Even at increased costs supplies are not forthcoming, forcing the Company to operate the CPP at lower loads. The Company is developing alternate fuels for the CPP to ensure operations at optimum load. Also, plans are afoot to purchase power through energy exchanges to meet the short-fall.

 

Creation of bulk storage facility for Propylene Oxide at Ennore Port is in progress and is expected to be operational during the 2nd quarter of FY 2013-14.

 

 

FINANCIAL REVIEW

 

The year 2012-13 witnessed moderate changes in interest rates. The  repo  rate  increases  during  the year  2011-12  resulted  in steep  increase  in  lending  rates  of  banks  and  other  operators. However, during the year, these were retained at the previous year’s level in the first half and slightly brought down during the second half, to induce economic growth. On the forex front, there was a sharp decline in rupee value by about 6.7%. These resulted in marginal increase in the cost of funds. Also the  investible  surplus was  significantly  lower  due  to  decline  in operations witnessed during the year and higher capital spending for creation of storage facilities.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS

 

The Company operates in the Polyurethanes (PUs) Market, comprising two sectors: Methylene diisocyanate (MDI) and Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI). The PUs market in India has displayed a robust growth rate over the past 5 years and is highly potential. MDI-based PUs are growing at a faster rate, as these are easier to handle and have a wider application base compared to TDI- based PUs.

 

Indian Polyurethane industry’s performance during 2007-2012 had been impressive with double-digit growth, but the market has become stagnant in 2013 due to various factors like overall economic slow-down, impact of global economic crisis on Indian manufacturers, inflationary pressures, monsoon failure, etc.

 

The company also manufactures Propylene Glycol (PG) for pharma, fragrance and industrial applications and continues to perform well in the Pharma and fragrance sectors. The off-take of PG for industrial applications is lower due to availability of alternate cheaper materials.

 

 

MARKET SCENARIO

 

During the year, the Company achieved a turnover of Rs. 5798.700 Millions against Rs.6295.200 Millions in FY 2011-12, lower by about 8% on account of the reasons stated above. It may be recalled that during the previous year (FY 2011-12), the company achieved  all time high sales and profits, notwithstanding the overall economic growth being lower as the Indian Polyurethane market performed better. The growth in automotive and appliances segments during the last few years intensified demand for PUs in India. However, during the year, the slow-down stretched to all the segments and hence the Company too suffered on account of sluggish market coupled with dumping of overseas materials by MNCs enjoying zero duty on polyols imported into India. With the global economy witnessing further deterioration, the situation worsened in the 2nd half of the year and in order to retain its market share, the Company had to sell products at very low prices, eroding the margins substantially.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

The World Trade Organization has scaled down the global trade growth forecast for the year 2013 at 3.30% from the earlier 4.5%; it may be pertinent to note that the global trade growth had fallen to 2% in 2012 from 5.11% in 2011. This trend is expected to persist in the short-term and revival could happen in the medium term.

 

In order to overcome the setback, the company has taken steps to develop new applications for its products in brake fluid, drilling applications, water  proofing,  etc., while  also  taking  care  of  its commitment to environment. The Company is also exploring the possibilities to develop product applications in medical devices.

 

The Company has also  created additional  storage  facilities  for the finished goods at its plants, in addition to the arrangements for bulk  storage  facilities  for  imported  raw materials  in Ennore Port which are expected to provide flexibility in plant operations depending on market conditions.

 

The company is confident of overcoming the difficulties through modified product mix and foraying into newer markets.
