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.

Note:

The registered office of the company has been shifted from Royal Insurance Building, 14, J Tata Road, Mumbai – 400 020, Maharashtra, India to the present address w.e.f. 04.11.2009.

 

NATURE OF OPERATIONS:

 

The Company is engaged in business of agro chemicals and seeds processing. Company manufactures technical grade and formulating pesticides, herbicides and fungicides and processes field crop and vegetable seeds. The Company has presence in both the domestic and international markets

 

BUSINESS OPERATIONS:

 

The Company’s performance for the year 2012-13 showed improvement and growth in business operations. The overall sales by the Company for the current year were Rs.29617.000 millions as against Rs.25399.000 millions of previous year, representing a growth of 17% compared to the previous year. The profit after tax in 2012-13 stood at Rs.2468.300 millions as against Rs.1675.000 millions in the previous year.

 

Export sales have been a major contributor for growth in sales during the year, which grew by 41% over the previous year. The increase in export sales was mainly on account of exports to the group companies. The domestic business during the year was challenging on account of unfavourable climatic conditions. While the seeds business has shown a good growth over previous year, it was not the case for crop protection business. In aggregate, the sales turnover in case of crop protection business increased by 18% and for seeds business by 15% as compared to the previous year. The key drivers for sales growth in seeds is on account of expansion in rice and vegetables during the current year. While the current year was challenging, the Company has strengthened its product portfolios and focused on marketing strategies to achieve its growth in a highly competitive market.

 

Projects

 

·         ICS - Tegra: In continuation with the commitment made in previous year, the Company with the support of the Parent Company focused its efforts in the ICS space with TEGRA’ Rice integrated crop solutions now strategically positioned in the southern part of India. There has been a good progress in business and going forward new technologies will be rolled-out to further enhance process efficiency and customer experience.

 

·         Seeds storage facility at Ranebennur: The Ranebennur facility has seen a surge in processing volumes of Sunflower and Corn seed in this year. A project for processing Sweet Corn has been approved by the Board and will go on stream by end of this year. This facility will allow them to deliver significant improvements to their quality besides establishing additional capacity to meet future demands

 

·         Seeds conditioning facility at Nuthankal: Infrastructure developments have been fully completed and the site is operationally stabilized. The site has been successful to meet the increased processing demands for Corn. A pilot dryer, sheller and cleaner is being installed at the site to study processing parameters for different Corn varieties. This will help improve processing efficiencies and seed quality for existing and new hybrids.

 

Prospects and Profitability

 

While the prospects for Crop Protection and Seeds businesses continues to be bright, they are however subject to expectations of a normal monsoon and may be susceptible to continuing fluctuations in the global economy which may impact overall levels of demand, cost and price realization.
