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 %.

OPERATIONS

 

Business totalling Rs.561.000 Millions relating to sales of Instrument Clusters to Toyota Kirloskar Motors Limited and Maruti Suzuki India Limited (in the previous financial year) was hived off in April 2013 to Wholly Owned Subsidiary, Pricol Components Limited by way of slump sale. Later, Pricol Components Limited was converted as a Joint Venture with Denso Corporation, Japan. The net profit out of slump sale was Rs.516.000 Millions.

 

The domestic sales during 2013-14 increased by 7% to Rs.6900.000 Millions (on a comparable basis Rs.6435.000 Millions in 2012-13, excluding the above Rs.561.000 Millions sales) despite a negative growth in passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and marginal growth in 2 Wheeler Segment. Their export sales increased by 9% to Rs.1403.000 Millions from Rs.1286.000 Millions.

 

The overall sales on a comparable basis increased by 7.5% to Rs.8302.000 Millions from Rs.7722.000 Millions. The company was able to achieve profit before tax of Rs.208.000 Millions from operations (Rs.137.00 Millions in 2012-13), an increase of 52%. This was achieved by several cost reduction measures initiated by the company to offset the steep increase in material costs as well as reducing interest burden through repayment of all long term loans. For the ensuing year 2014-15, the Company's balance business is expected to grow by 10%, mainly due to new business generated. The company has embarked upon further improving operational efficiency, efforts to control cost and expects to improve profits for the year 2014-15.

 

AMALGAMATION

 

The Board at its meeting held on 24th January 2014 approved the draft scheme of amalgamation of Xenos Automotive Limited (a related party) with Pricol Limited effective 1st January 2014, subject to the required approvals in the manner as required under the Companies Act and Securities and Exchange of Board of India (SEBI).

 

Xenos is dealing in automotive accessories in the aftermarket and has established its brand name. In the recent past all automobile manufacturers have started fitting accessories as part of original equipment or selling them in their show rooms. Pricol with its market connection with all major OEMs will be able to tap this potential market. This will help Pricol in creation of new business vertical and help in grow the business. By this amalgamation Pricol would serve as "One Stop Solution Provider".

 

The scheme provides for transfer of assets and liabilities pertaining to Xenos on a going concern basis. The debit

balance in Profit and Loss Account appearing in the financial statement of Xenos shall be transferred and adjusted against the General Reserves of Pricol. Intercompany outstanding balances between Xenos and Pricol of Rs.361.464 Millions owed by Xenos towards the supplies made by Pricol, the obligations in respect thereof shall come to an end and there shall be no liability in that behalf and corresponding effect shall be given in the books of account and of Pricol.

 

There will not be any impact in the ongoing Statement of Profit and Loss of Pricol.

 

The Company had filed the Draft Scheme with BSE Limited (Designate Stock Exchange) and National Stock Exchange of India Limited as per SEBI circulars, for their 'No-objection' to the Draft Scheme. The Stock Exchanges have given their 'No-objection' to the draft scheme.

 

The Company is in process of filing necessary applications, petitions etc. with Honourable High Court of Madras for getting their approval.

 

OUTLOOK, OPPORTUNITIES, CHALLENGES, RISKS AND CONCERNS

 

The downtrend in the Indian Economy is expected to stabilise and revert to a modest growth of 5.5% to 6%, the growth mainly driven by the revival of the developed economies. Due to the expected political stability and revival of increased investments, the industrial segment is set to grow. There is a time lag of atleast a year for the automotive industry to follow suit. Consequently, for this year the Indian Automotive Industry is expected to have only a marginal improvement over last year's performance due to the continuing high interest rates and fuel prices, which is a grave concern.

 

Commercial vehicle segment which witnessed decline for the past 2 years is expected to recover and show a modest growth. The Tractor segment also is expected to do better.

 

Pricol Limited has a wide customer base in all segments of the vehicle industry. Their company is expected to achieve a higher growth than the industry average.
