INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

N E W S

 

As per the latest IMF study, the total weigh of emerging markets in the GDP of the world on a purchasing power parity basis has seen a sizeable shift. It highlights how as against 51 % in 2005, the emerging economies now account for close to 56 % of the global purchasing power GDP as per the latest survey. And with the emerging economies growing at a faster rate than their developed counterparts, there are every possibility that the their share goes up further in the coming years.  China may surpass the US over the next few years.

 

Politics and economics are very intricately connected. They tend to influence each other in ways that could be very complex and far-reaching. The prospects of the India’s economy have been seriously compromised due to political corruption. High inflation, poor standard of living are to a great extent a result of rampant corruption in the country. China on the other hand, seems to be facing diametrically opposite challenge. American hedge fund manager Jim Chanos has been keenly following the political and economic development in the dragon economy and has figured out something that is quite worrying. He is of the view that the Chinese economy could be heading toward trouble on account of new Chinese President Xi Jingping’s very aggressive anti-corruption drive. Chanos believes tat many things such as apartment sales, luxury products, etc. were largely bought with dirty money. And it is now beginning to impact consumption. This may indeed be bad news for an economy that is struggling to transition from an investment-driven export-oriented economy to a domestic consumption-driven economy.

 

A study published by Firstpost has revealed that asset classes like real estate and equities were the biggest beneficiaries of the liberalization policies.  A firm called Ciane Analytics studied returns from assets including equities, gold, fixed deposits, G-Secs and real estate since 1991. Real estate outperformed every other asset classes during the 23-year period with an annualized return of 20 % ! Equities came in second with annualized return of 15.5 % ! However, while these returns may seem mouthwatering, the fact is that the return from equities adjusted for inflation came down to just 7.1 %.

BACKGROUND

 

Economic growth over the past couple of years has been muted - much will depend on the new government in terms of raising optimism with their approach to various policy issues. Growth estimates have been pruned from the earlier levels of 9% to between 5-6%. Investments which drove growth until 2008/9 have slowed down sharply. Domestic savings have declined while government deficits have ballooned. Inflation has been ruling high for well over two years now leading to a period of relatively high interest rates and its negative impact on the economy; the reigning in of the current account deficit has been one of the few positives for the year. The depreciation in currency has resulted in an improvement in their competitiveness and should help improve exports in the coming months while at the same time compel industry to look for greater indigenization and import substitution. It is expected that inflation would moderate over the remaining part of 2014 and would pave way for some monetary easing. Recent clearance by the government of several projects that were held up for various reasons over the past couple of years also holds out hope for an improvement in business sentiments that could result in a turnaround to the investment cycles. However, there is a general expectation that the ongoing general elections will bring about a stable government and along with that there are renewed hopes of a strong and improved economic situation

 

OPERATIONS

 

In terms of revenue, the year saw only a marginal growth over the previous year. Overall sales grew by 4% in value terms when compared to 2012-13. In volume terms the growth was higher. Higher volumes were achieved in Communication Cable and Copper segments as well as in the Lighting Business. Star performances came in from product offerings to the following customer sectors – agriculture in the Electrical Cables segment and Coaxial and Optic Fibre Cables in the Communication Cable segment. During the year both the Auto and Infrastructure (Power) sectors were under strain. In terms of outlook for the upcoming year, sales of Optical Fiber Cables looks promising with the government firmly committed to achieving the targets set under the National Optic Fiber Network program as also the Defence Network. Similarly with the government clearing several major infrastructure projects recently, and more states opting for the Financial Restructuring Program, it is expected that the Power Sector would attract investments in cabling in the not too distant future. Income for the year was higher at Rs.24073.900 Millions (previous year Rs.22948.500 Millions) representing a growth of 5% over the previous year. The Company has recorded a Net Profit after Tax of Rs 2076.800 Millions as against a Net Profit of Rs.1452.700 Millions in the previous year. The improved profitability comes from a better product mix, growth in sales volumes across the product lines mentioned above and tight monitoring of working capital requirement.

 

EXPANSION, CONSOLIDATION & NEW PRODUCTS

 

Consolidation of the Pune manufacturing operations at Urse has been largely completed with only skeletal activity remaining at Pimpri. This has helped further improve the cost competitiveness in the Low Duty Electrical Cables offered by The Company. The planned 5MW solar power plant at Urse is now operational – the plant went live in March 2014 and the power generated will be entirely consumed within the Urse site leading to cost efficiencies.

The Roorkee facility expansion is now complete and the enhanced capacity will be available for market requirements effective 2014-15. This should greatly enhance product availability as well as ensure better reach to the markets in Northern and Eastern India. Expansion of the Optic Fiber Cable manufacturing capacity at the Goa unit was completed during the year. An additional line is currently under commissioning at the Urse unit as well. These additions would serve the Company well in being able to meet its obligations under the NOFN order as well as any additional demand from the market. As announced last year, the Company intends to enter the switchgear market. Product launch is expected during the 3rd quarter of 2014-15 – these products will be manufactured at the Roorkee site and equipment necessary has been ordered and is expected towards

End May/early June. The Company launched a series of LED based lamps during the year. Market acceptance has been very encouraging and more varieties are being considered for a launch in the upcoming year. Together with the CFL based lamps, it is envisaged that lighting products would bring substantial value to the Company.

 

FINANCE

 

The Company’s short term debt programs continue to enjoy the highest ratings from CRISIL. Since the last few years these have been accorded the A1+ rating. The Company regained the AA+/stable rating for its Rs.500.000 Millions long term non-convertible debentures program as well as on the long term loans currently outstanding. This up gradation by CRISIL reflects the strong financial risk management policies followed by the Company. Despite the increase in value of operations, financial costs have been contained to the minimum required levels. The Company continues to meet all its financial commitments in a timely manner.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY:

 

The Company operates in two main segments - Electrical Cables and Communication Cables. To support its requirement of Copper Rods for both type of cables, the Company manufactures Continuous Cast Copper Rods (CCC rods), at its Rod Plant at Goa. A small part of this production of CCC rods is, however, sold to third party customers. The result from this operation is declared under the Copper Segment. The Company’s foray into the Lamps and Electrical Switches businesses is still in its early years and account for less than 5% of the Company’s turnover and are hence reported as “Others” in the Segment Results.

 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS:

 

Production:

 

·         Electrical Cables at 54,423 MT as compared to 50,445 MT in the previous year.

·         Metal based communication Cables at 5,576 MT as compared to 4,678 MT in the previous year.

·         Optical Fibre Cables at 31,023 KM as compared to 49,080 KM in the previous year.

 

Sales:

·         Electrical Cables (including Excise Duty) at Rs.21132.000 Millions as compared to Rs. 20858.00 Millions in the previous year.

·         Communication cables (including Excise Duty) at Rs.2264.000 Millions as compared to Rs.1991.000 Millions in the previous year.

·         Copper Rods (net of interdivisional transfers and including Excise Duty) at Rs. 1178.000 Millions as compared to Rs.836.000 Millions in the previous year.

·         Exports were marginally higher at Rs. 501.000 Millions as against Rs. 496.000 Millions of the earlier year.

·         During the year, several new products were introduced, chief among them being Electrical Cables for the Elevator Industry,

·         Special purpose cables for CCTV applications, and innovations within the Optic Fiber Cable business. New product designs

·         For innovative applications will continue to remain a focus area for the Company.

·         The income from operations (including excise duty) was Rs.25099.000 Millions for the year as compared to Rs.24235.000 Millions for the earlier year.

·         Two major orders worth Rs.500.000 Millions were executed by the JV (Finolex J-Power Systems Ltd.) during the year. As members would be aware, the Power Sector in their country has been going through uncertain times as evidenced by difficulties in fuel sourcing as well as the tight financial position of most power utilities. Given this scenario, capital investment in the sector has been minimal during the year. Moreover the stringent pre-qualification conditions imposed by utilities have also been a dampening factor in order acquisition by the JV. It is estimated that the JV will become profitable only around 2016 and will need financial support in the form of equity infusion until then. While the long term outlook of the JV is positive, in the short term there is an erosion of net worth in the JV.

·         The Joint Venture with Corning SAS, Corning Finolex Optical Fibre Private limited which commenced operations during the last quarter of 2012-13, has clocked sales of over Rs. 1000.000 Millions in the year 2013-14. The operations are expected to be profitable going forwards.

·         For more details on the operations, a reference may please be made to the financial statements.

 

 

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT:

 

The segment-wise discussion on the markets which are served by the Company is as follows:

Electrical Cables:

Electrical cables can be further categorized into light duty electrical cables, power and control cables.

(i) Light duty electrical cables include electrical wires used extensively for electrification of industrial establishments, Electrical panel wiring in industrial establishments and major Equipments, consumer durable goods, automobiles, Agricultural pump sets, small generator applications besides general lighting purposes.

(ii) In power cable category, the Company has the ability to manufacture such cables within the range 1.1 kV to 66 kV. These cables are high voltage cables designed in various constructions depending upon their applications; however, always meant for underground usage. Power and control cables up to 3.3 kV rating are used for connecting user point to the main supply of power. Power cables above 3.3 kV rating are meant for use in underground application for intra-city electricity distribution network. The Company manufactures insulated power cables only. These cables meet the requirements of international standards.

 

Performance:

For the year, this segment cables registered sales (including excise duty) of Rs.21132.000 Millions against Rs.20858.000 Millions of the previous year. It accounted for 85% of total sales for the year. Growth during the year was driven mainly by agricultural applications. Both infrastructure and automobile sectors remained very subdued (with the poor financial position of the various power utilities as well as constraints faced by them in terms of fuel availability), while in the construction sector growth was marginal. Margins, however, were strong with EBITA at 12.7% for the year as against 12.2% in the earlier year.

 

Outlook:

 

Electrical cables are the main focus area of business for the Company. In the long term the outlook is positive – construction sector appears positive with development seeming more broad based and consumption being reported from interior areas of the country rather than being limited to the larger cities; agricultural applications also appear positive and poised to continue on the growth shown in the previous years; automobile and infrastructure (power), however seem to be going through a slower growth path at this moment. In the long term, however, the outlook for the entire segment is positive, given the fact that sustained economic growth of the country depends on a robust and stable infrastructure. The Company faces two principal risks in this business – firstly competition from a large unorganized sector which produces products of inferior quality but at cheap prices and secondly a highly volatile commodity market where price movements can be very sharp. The Company has been handling the risk of the competitive forces through its organized business approach by the strength of its reach, superior quality products, and safe products and maintaining high standards of service levels with its customers. The Company enjoys the advantages of economies of scale and backward integration. As and when GST is rolled out in the country, the Company believes the threat of a competitive force that relies on cheap quality and unfair trade practices will reduce further. As regards the risk of sharp raw material price movements, though the Company endeavors to pass on the price effect to the customers, there has always been a time lag between the price movement and the passing thereof. The Company negotiates price variation contracts with bulk buyers. The Company has been fair in dealing with its customers and accordingly enjoys customer confidence in pricing decisions.

 

Communication Cables:

 

The communication cables comprise of state of art, new generation communication cables and traditional telephone cables.

(i) The state of art communication cables are either copper based or glass based. The copper based cables include LAN cables, coaxial cables, PE insulated switchboard cables and V-SAT cables. These cables are used for last mile connectivity. LAN cables are used in high speed networks, Coaxial cables are used to provide content input to TV receiving sets and in microwave communications and mobile towers, PE insulated switchboard cables are used to connect telephone instruments to an EPABX system and V-SAT cables find their application in V-SAT towers to connect the dish to the base station.

Optic Fibre cables are glass based cables and they have the maximum bandwidth and speed. Certain cable designs are used as trunk cables in long distance networks while other designs are used in distribution, whether by telecom companies, multi-service organizations or other service providers. Communication cables which carry voice, data or images is the backbone of an economic activity. The speed and bandwidth determine the capabilities of a communication network.

(ii) Traditional telephone cables include JFTCs which are laid underground and are used for connecting land line telephones to exchanges. These are copper based cables. With introduction of mobile telephones in India and due to substitution by optic fibre cables, JFTC business has lost its value. Nevertheless, JFTC continues to remain a preferred option for last mile connectivity in fixed line telephones. The demand for JFTCs will continue to remain modest. The Company would continue to manufacture JFTCs especially with broadband features for public sector and private sector telecom

 

Performance:

 

The communication cables segment (including optic fibre) recorded sales of Rs.2264.000 Millions for the year against Rs.1991.000 Millions for the earlier year. As mentioned in the previous year’s report, there has been appetite from private service providers within the telecom sector to invest in cables consequent to their commencement of 4G rollouts. EBITA levels have improved to 13.7% in this segment as compared to 13.3% in the previous year.

 

Outlook:

 

With the impetus from the Government in providing better and faster internet access to rural India, the Company believes that demand for communication products will be robust for the foreseeable future. The economic development requires inter-alia, a strong, dependable and sustainable communication network. Besides the programs being implemented by the Government, roll out of 4G services by private service providers will entail additional capital expenditure in the form of an optic fibre network. The Company’s communication cables meet with the requirement of local as well as international standards and therefore, find ready acceptance with domestic customers as well as in the exports market. The outlook here is positive, both in the near as well as long term. The risks of competition and copper price movements similar to the electrical cables business are also applicable to the business of communication cables. The varying global demand-supply equation of optic fibre and resultant price movement thereof; availability of preforms and price thereof and delay/slow-down in investment into networks by telecom companies/ service provider and other relevant entities due to global slow-down pose risk to the business of communication cables. The Company’s association with Corning Inc of USA, inventor of glass fibre, one of the world’s leading glass and fibre manufacturer and having the largest market share in the world, would be beneficial in meeting technological and market based challenges

 

Copper Rods:

 

Copper rod is the feed stock for copper based electrical and communications cables. The Company manufactures its own copper rods. The base material for producing copper rods is copper cathodes, the bulk of which are procured from local manufacturers under long term supply agreements. A smaller portion of the requirement of copper cathodes is imported as and when needed. After meeting the in-house requirement of copper rods, the balance capacity to produce copper rods is allocated for third party sale.

 

Performance:

 

The sales were Rs.7005.000 Millions (previous year Rs.7085.000 Millions) of which Rs.1178.000 Millions were sales to third parties (previous year Rs.836.000 Millions) and balance was inter-divisional transfers. The trend of high premiums on cathodes Vs comparably lower premiums on copper rods continues and negatively impacts the sales of copper rods for the Company. This put severe pressure on margins related to sale of copper rods to third party – consequently The Company restricted its sale of copper rods to already committed contracts or contracts where the margin levels were acceptable.

 

Outlook:

 

The copper rod production is mainly for in-house consumption. The Company’s steps to set up new plants for cables as well as to expand the cable capacity at the existing plants will boost up the captive consumption of copper rods. Further, since the joint venture with J-Power Systems Corp. of Japan has commenced its operations, the venture’s copper requirements would be met by The Company’s copper rod plant. Accordingly the utilization of capacity at copper rod plant is expected to improve.

 

Electrical Switches and CFLs:

 

The manufacture and sale of these electrical products act as a logical extension of the cables business of the Company.
