COMPANY PERFORMANCE:

 

 

Recovery in the Indian economy, enabling the Medium & Heavy Commercial Vehicle (M&HCV) industry to signal an uptrend after two years of down cycle. Whilst overall commercial vehicle volumes declined by 2.8% over the previous year, the M&HCV segment volumes increased by 16%. The Company improved its market share from 26.1% to 28.6% in the M&HCV segment, facilitated by appropriate product mix in the growth segments, a sustained focus on meeting customer requirements and initiatives in network expansion. M&HCV export volumes grew by 31.7% to 11,218 units from 8,511 units last year, enabled by growth in target export markets.

 

In the Light Commercial Vehicle segment, the industry volumes contracted by 13.4%. However, The Company has been able to sustain the market share in the small Commercial Vehicle (2-3.5T) segment supported by sustained product improvements and variants on DOST, which is the 2nd largest player in the segment. The new PARTNER range of products has also achieved significant market share in the 6-7.5T segment, its first full year after launch.

 

Power Solutions Business continued to have subdued demand due to improved power availability and slowdown in Industrial / Agricultural segments. The Spare Parts volumes have bounced back due to higher demand and focused actions at improving parts availability and competitiveness.

 

 

 MARKET TRENDS

 

Economy – India

 

Report 2015). Growth was driven by developing economies, sustained growth in the United States (US) and a moderate revival in European Union. The Indian economy posted 7.4% growth in the financial year 2014-15 (Central Statistics Office 2011-12 base years, Advance Estimates) as against 6.9% in the financial year 2013-14. Industrial sector gained momentum with Manufacturing, Construction and Electricity & Utilities growing by 6.8%, 4.5% and 9.6% respectively as against 5.3%, 2.5% and 4.8% in the previous year. However mining slowed down to 2.3% from 5.4% and the Agricultural sector slowed down to 1.1% from 3.7% in the previous year. Overall, improved business sentiment, lower oil prices and policy measures helped the economy to build momentum. According to International Monetary Fund, the global economy is expected to grow at 3.5% in 2015 and 3.8% in 2016. However,

Global recovery will continue to be moderate and uneven. While developed economies are expected to strengthen, aided by lower oil prices and low interest rates, most emerging economies are expected to slow down moderately, due to country specific reasons-with India being an exception. The Indian economy is expected to grow by 7.5% in 2015-16. Most economists believe that the Indian economy is at an inflexion point and is set for sustained growth in coming years. Lower oil prices, contained inflation, stable financial sector and expected policy actions will support growth this year. Year 2015-16 is also expected to see growth picking up in the mining sector, particularly Iron Ore and Coal. Downside risks include poor monsoon, increase in interest rates in US leading to capital outflow, infrastructure bottlenecks and pending structural reforms.
