Recent arrest of the Chennai head of the Registrar of Companies, the ministry of corporate affairs arm that ensures that companies file all the information required by the Companies Act is the latest manifestation of a messy fight between a father and his adopted son for the control of Rs 40000 mn business empire. The Central Bureau of Investigation arrested Manumeethi Cholan after he accepted Rs 10 lakhs as bribe from M A M Ramaswamy, a CBI official said.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT:

 

Sah Petroleums Limited (SPL) is one of the leading manufacturer of industrial lubricants in India and manufacturing wide range of industrial and automotive lubricants, specialties and process oils etc. under the brand name of “IPOL®TM” at Vasai and Daman plants. This industry has much growth potential and is growing globally.

 

 

OVERVIEW:

 

The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 1956/2013 and made on a prudent and reasonable basis in order that the financial statements reflects a true and fair manner the form and substance of transactions and reasonably present their state of affairs and profit for the year.

 

The Company’s Net Sales/Income from operations for the year ended 31st March, 2014 amounted to Rs.4035.869 Millions as compared to Rs.4173.695 Millions in the previous year. The profit for the year stood at Rs.10.425 Millions against the loss of Rs.12.635 Millions in the previous year.

 

Considering the performance of the company, the Board of Directors recommended dividend Re.0.01 per share (0.2%) on the equity shares of Rs.5/- each for the financial year 2013-14.



INDUSTRY OUTLOOK:

 

The public sector undertakings have dominated the Indian lubes market upto 1993 and they had a collective market share of approximately 89%, but after 1993, the Government has liberalized and decentralised the norms of import of key raw material, determination of pricing regulations and reduction in the custom duties on import of base oil. Due to liberalization policy, the fair competition took place between the private players and public sector undertakings. In today’s position, around more than 20 companies are operating in the Indian lubricants market. Until the 1980, lubricants produced in the country were basically simple blends based on low and medium level technologies. More sophisticated lubricants were imported and these amounted for a very small market. The entry of multinationals has led to complex and premium brands being introduced into the Indian market. The Indian lubricants market is the fourth largest in the world.

 

Market Segments: There are two major segments of the lubricants industry. The automotive lubricants segment which has an approximate market share of 65% and the industrial lubricants segment accounting for the rest.

 

Import Threat: Lubricants are usually made according to the nature of use, climatic conditions, type of road, nature of automobiles and so on. Therefore, it would not be logical to import the same in the country. But at the same time, there is not much difference and the same can be imported if one prefers to do so. In fact, premium products, even as on today, are imported. However, in the general outlook of things, import of lubricants in India would not be competitive due to the prevailing import duty structure as well as high freight costs.

 

In consideration of above, it could be safely noted that the key factors to success for any company in the Lubricant industry would be:

 

v  Good brand image.

v  An extensive marketing network.

v  Strong financial resources.

v  Technological innovations and R and D backup.

v  Strategically located manufacturing facilities.

 

 

MARKETING STRATEGY:

 

Company has been in the market for more than three decades under the brand name IPOL. The strategy is to cater to the specific need of the company by way of customising their products, offering the right price at right time. The Company has a marketing network setup all over India. IPOL brand is registered in the name of the Company. The company presently markets its products through its sales offices / depots located at Pune, Delhi, Faridabad, Chandigarh, Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Baroda, Kolkata, Jamshedpur, Jaipur, Indore, Mehsana, Jabalpur, Patiala, Ghaziabad and many Clearing and Forwarding Agents at different locations in India.

 

In addition to the direct marketing efforts, the company also appoints distributors/agents for both domestic and overseas markets.

 

 

BUSINESS STRATEGY:

 

The Company would continue to focus on the current segments of business considering the market potential, its own inherent strength in terms of its quality, price and timely delivery. The Company has requisite infrastructure and manufacturing facilities due to its constant upgradation/modernization and phased expansion programme.

 

The Company is constantly introducing new products on account of its strong in-house R and D and will continue to do the same in the near future and will also direct efforts for increasing its presence in the export markets.
