Comments : |
Subject is India’s oldest and largest cement company having excellent
track. The company possesses a strong financial profile marked by healthy networth
base and capital structure with zero leverage in its books, leading to
favourable debt protection metrics and sound financial flexibility. Management has witnessed healthy revenue base as well as net
profitability during FY14, resulting in strong cash accruals. Moreover, the rating are further strengthen on account of a decent
liquidity profile as well, owing to huge liquid funds at the firms disposal. The ratings also take into consideration, the hike in the excise duty
and freight charges in the recent budget which would harm the input prices
inturn may affect the margins. Subsequently, the sector is under pressure with a sluggish economy,
though corporate confidence has improved it is yet to translate into activity
on the ground. Further, weak demand, below average monsoon, falling prices and over
capacity are some of the issues the sector has been grappling with. However, trade relations are fair. Business is active. Payment terms
are reported as regular and as per commitments. In view of experienced promoters large marketing infrastructure, pan
India presence along with established brand and market position, strengthened
by synergies generated from operational linkages with Ambuja, the company can
be considered good for business dealings at usual trade terms and conditions. |

COMPANY OVERVIEW
Subject is a public
limited company domiciled and headquartered in India and incorporated under the
provision of Companies Act, 1913. Its shares are listed on two stock exchanges
in India. The Company is engaged in the manufacturing and selling of Cement and
Ready mix concrete. The Company caters mainly to the domestic market.
ECONOMIC SCENARIO AND
OUTLOOK
Indian economic growth in 2014 rose to ~5.2% from 4.7% last year as a result of the improving macro-economic situation. The wholesale and consumer price inflation has fallen to ~4.2% and 7.4% from last year’s 6.3% and 10.1% on the back of a strong base effect. Falling oil prices, lower food and commodity prices and the proactive
measures taken by the Government helped in containing inflation in 2014. Contrary to expectations, agricultural growth was strong at ~4.5% in 2014. However, the slow pace of reforms, lack of impetus for infrastructure projects, high interest rates and tightening of fiscal policies adversely impacted the capital goods sector. Industrial production / output was also sluggish. The low economic growth appears to have bottomed out and a gradual increase in economic activity is expected in 2015. The medium term to long term growth prospects look positive in view of the Government’s determination to bring in reforms. For the year 2015, the economy is expected to grow at a higher rate than in 2014. The long term prospects for the economy is optimistic.
CEMENT INDUSTRY
OUTLOOK AND OPPORTUNITIES
The Indian Cement Industry has an installed capacity of ~360 million tonnes and the domestic consumption in the calendar year 2014 was 264 million tonnes. Cement consumption grew at the rate of ~6% in the calendar year 2014. The overall cement demand is estimated to grow at the rate of 6% in 2015. The consumption growth may go beyond 6% if investment is made in the infrastructure segment. With the gradual reduction in fiscal deficits and Consumer Price Index, it is expected that the interest rates would gradually come down which would stimulate demand in the housing sector. The Company’s continued focus on cost reduction, its thrust on increasing the sale of premium products and various other customer excellence initiatives should help in presenting an improved performance.
AWARDS
The Company received many awards and felicitations conferred by reputable organizations for achievements in different areas such as Safety, Manufacturing Excellence and Environment Management. ACC ranked as “India’s Most Admired Companies” in Cement Sector in a Fortune India - Hay Group Survey for the second consecutive year. The Company’s Annual Report for 2013 won the Gold Shield from the prestigious Institute of Chartered Accountants of India for “Excellence in Financial Reporting”.

Press Release
CCI gives green
signal for the Holcim-Lafarge merger deal
Fair trade watchdog CCI has given its green signal for the Holcim-Lafarge merger deal that would create the world's largest cement group, while directing Lafarge to sell its two plants in India to address anti-competition concerns.
The USD 40 billion-deal, which a few weeks ago was on the verge of even falling apart, was also the second instance where the CCI sought public comments to assess the anti-competition nature of the transaction.
After an intense scrutiny, CCI has ordered Lafarge to divest its plants in Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh in order to effectively eliminate "appreciable adverse effect on competition" due to the proposed deal.
Swiss major Holcim and French entity Lafarge have presence in the country through their indirect subsidiaries. The Competition Commission of India's (CCI) approval has come after the first notice was given by the two companies in July 2014.
The Jojobera plant has a cement grinding capacity of 4.6 MTPA (million tonnes per annum) while the unit at Sonadih in Chhattisgarh has a cement grinding capacity of 0.55 MTPA besides a clinker capacity of 3.10 MTPA.
In the process of deciding on the divestiture proposal, the Commission considered various combinations of plants located in Jharkhand, West Bengal and Chhattisgarh forming part of the relevant market.
To assess the deal, the Commission identified the relevant markets for grey cement and RMC (ready mix concrete). With regard to grey cement, CCI considered Eastern region -- comprising the states of Chhattisgarh, Odisha, West Bengal, Bihar and Jharkhand -- as the relevant geographic market.
The Commission found that "the proposed combination is likely to have an appreciable adverse effect on competition in India in the relevant market for grey cement in the Eastern region", the order dated March 30 and released on Wednesday said.
According to the Commission, the divesture of Jojobera and Sonadih plants would create a credible competitor who could pose a significant competitive constraint in the relevant market.
The Commission, did not find any evidence to suggest that the vertical relationships between the two companies with respect to RMC would result in unfair business practices.
Among others, the divestment of the plants would not be complete unless CCI approves the terms of the final and binding sale and purchase agreement, the purchaser and transitional agreements, if any.
Holcim, which is a producer of cement and other construction materials, has presence in India through its two indirect subsidiaries -- ACC and Ambuja Cements. Besides it is present in the RMC and aggregates segments.
Lafarge, which is
also into similar business, is present in the product segments of cement, RMC
and aggregates in India through its indirect subsidiaries -- Lafarge India
Private Limited and Lafarge Aggregates & Concrete India Private

It was a ‘Terrible Thursday’ for the market which crashed over 2 percent on geopolitical tensions and March F&O expiry. The Sensex plunged 654.25 points to close at 27457.58 and the Nifty fell 188.65 points to 8342.15.
N Jayakumar, President, Prime Securities , feel the hope rally is long over and thinks the markets lack conviction due to some uncertainties. “Little things like the coal block allocation, which is fantastic, very openly done, transparently done, big revenue collection, but then you hear that 2 or 3 of them are sort of getting called back. I don’t know if at the end of the day there is a method in this entire thing, I am really hoping there is because with one level of transparency and governance what has added on the other side is huge cost to the Indian corporate space,” he said.
According to Jayakumar, March is a peculiar month for Indian markets. “Whether we like it or not, there is lot of private funding that goes on in the market place which gets pulled out,” he said. He expects to see some relief in April “but it will be result-focused”.
Jayakumar feels the markets are displaying some amount of maturity. “The markets have been scaling new highs -- the number of new lows on a daily basis has almost kept pace with the number of new highs. Markets are ruthlessly banishing stocks they don’t like,” he said.
Anil Singhvi, Chairman, Ican Investment Advisors, too feels that the momentum which started last May seemed to be now almost getting over. “The hangover is over and people are coming back to the reality,” he said.
“We were ahead of the times but hoping that things will correct, hoping that we started with discounting FY15 earnings, then started discounted FY16 earnings then we started discounting FY17 earnings but at the end of the day the fundamentals have not changed at all,” Singhvi said.
He feels the situation on the ground remains as bad or as good as it was 8-9 months back. Thus the stock markets are correcting themselves instead of talking about FY17 which is looking far too off now.
“It is time when you take stock of the situation. Global markets are not looking up so well -- look at the global growth, currency issues. So, when you are having all these issues which have really confronted us in the last three or four months, things are working out,” he said.
According to Ajay Srinivasan, CEO, Aditya Birla Corp, there is no real trigger for the market at this point, and thus it may drift till it gets a direction.
“People are not expecting great quarterly earnings for March. I don’t think internationally there are any great positive triggers that are coming. The FOMC is out of the way; whatever has to happen will happen. So, it is going to take a while for the market to kind of find feet and go forward,” he said.
Srinivasan expects the markets to find a new direction in the next six months. “I think you have got to start seeing signs from Budget. The government push has to start translating into stuff so you have got to start seeing the infrastructure spend on the ground, you have got to see tenders being set out – I think that sign will be good enough for the market,” he said.
P Phani Sekhar from Karvy Stock Broking is not concerned with the market fall as he feels it is predominantly coming out of FII selling. “We have seen so many times in the past when there are no structural concerns to the construct of the market and when it arises out of a technical issue of FII selling and that too because of a Yemenese problem which I am sure nobody till yesterday was talking about,” he said.
Sekhar expects the problem to resolve itself because fundamentally compared to where the markets were at say 30,000, things are now improving. “You had a couple of ordinances turn into legislations; you had a successful coal auction, you had a successful telecom auction so, I do not think one should be too much seriously concerned and from the top we have lost 8 percent. Of course some high EBITDA stocks have corrected by their very nature by 12-15 percent but that should be okay for a longer-term investor,” he added.
Sudarshan Sukhani of s2analytics.com thinks the Nifty has come to a very strong support zone. One has to take profits now and should short it. “Do not carry positions from today onwards. At least we will see then how the markets then will pan out. The downtrend is not over but at least a pause is quite possible,” he said. He advises three stocks to go ahead and trade for a BTST -- Oil and Natural Gas Corporation ( ONGC )
