COMPANY BACKGROUND

 

Asian Paints Limited (The ‘Company’) Is A Public Limited Company Incorporated Under The Indian Companies Act, 1913. The Company Is Engaged In The Business Of Manufacturing, Selling And Distribution Of Paints, Coatings, and Products Related To Home Décor, Bath Fittings And Providing Related Services.

 

 

 

 

OVERVIEW OF THE ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

 

2014-15 has been a year marked by excitement and its share of challenges. The decisive political mandate accorded in the general elections set the stage for surging hopes for a rapid economic turnaround of the Indian economy. While many macro-economic indicators have improved during the course of the year, the journey to realize the growth potential of the economy is slow and challenging.

 

On the macro front, the biggest comfort came from the sharp drop in crude prices. For a large net importer like India, the decline in crude prices has helped in controlling the trade deficit and easing inflation. Headline inflation as measured by CPI has eased by almost 360 bps to 5.9% in 2014-15. Even the trade deficit is largely unchanged from 2013-14 despite weak export growth, helped by the soft commodity prices, especially crude and

Contained gold demand. Improving numbers related to the housing and real estate sector do not indicate a very positive trend either.

 

 

Macro indicators and sentiment driven pick-up in reform momentum have resulted in renewed portfolio investment

Interest in the economy. The consistent portfolio inflows coupled with prudent management by the Central Bank has resulted in a relatively stable exchange rate environment. The improving numbers related to the housing and

Real estate sector do not indicate a very positive trend either.

 

Macro factors have resulted in improvement in the overall growth with GDP growth in 2014-15 estimated at 7.4% against 6.9% in 2013-14.

 

While the headline indicators point towards steady improvement, the recovery on the ground has been rather slow. Lower inflation has not resulted in significant improvement in demand conditions. The demand conditions have been quite challenging across sectors as borne out by the slow improvement in industrial production. Some of the other key underlying drivers like credit growth and fixed capital formation also highlight a very sluggish environment. Similarly prices. The Company has undertaken a price reduction in the last quarter of 2014-15 to pass on this benefit to the consumers.

 

OUTLOOK AND RISKS

 

The recent trend in macro indicators clearly point towards improving fundamentals of the domestic economy. The Central Government has also shown its intent in furthering the reform momentum to revive investments And improve governance. The global commodity cycle is expected to be benign with consumption demand From the Chinese economy slowing down. Taking cues from the inflationary trend, the Reserve Bank of India has Already eased the monetary cycle and is expected to bring out more interest rate cuts going forward. All this Favorable factors coupled with some of the important developmental reforms that are being pursued by the Central Government like the tax, reform and push for infrastructure spending will set the stage for further pick-up in economic activity in 2015-16. This should augur well for your Company’s business across decorative paints, industrial coatings and home improvement. The extended Diwali festival season and expected benign raw material prices should also support growth. A cause of concern is the forecast for below average monsoon released by the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) which could impact the inflation expectations and hurt the economic recovery. This could have a potential adverse impact on the demand conditions for your Company’s

Products. Another potential risk factor to the optimistic outlook could be any significant flare-up in crude prices which have bounced back strongly over the last month. Recent weeks have also highlighted the interlinkage of the global financial markets with data releases from US and Europe leading to increased volatility in the domestic exchange rate. Such volatile environment could have an adverse impact on the optimistic outlook.

 

On the International front, the Eurozone continues to face challenges, specifically on the debt front in Greece.

There are also increasing expectations put further pressure on the global commodities. Some of the markets,

Where the Company operates, are under economic slowdown and growth is not expected to pick up in a marked

Manner across your Company’s international operations in the near future. A lot would also depend on the political environment in some of the key markets like Egypt, Nepal and Bangladesh.

 

The foray in the home improvement business is in its initial stages and the Company is constantly learning and

Navigating its path as it takes steps to scale up the business. And like any new course, it will have its share of hits and misses. The Company would continue to leverage on its distribution strengths to make this business a meaningful contributor over the coming years.

 

Over the long term, India continues to offer lot of opportunities that would continue to fuel the growth in the domestic paint industry for both, decorative as well as industrial products. The current lower per capita consumption of paints in the  that the US Fed would start raising rates during the course of the year. Both these factors can dictate capital flow across markets, including India and could have significant impact on the global currency markets. China, the largest global growth engine, is also slowing down and this could country coupled with rising aspirations of the large, younger generation offer tremendous growth opportunities for the decorative products. These rising aspirations of the well-informed younger generation would also spur the Home Improvement category. At the same time, with continued focus on infrastructure development and with the Government’s push for the “Make-in- India” play, even the industrial products could see a sustained growth phase

In future. A large and growing market like India is bound to draw competition interest and your Company believes in its ability to address these opportunities and challenges to deliver strong and consistent performance in the coming years.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage to net revenue from operations decreased to 55.3% as against 57.0% in the previous year. The decrease is on account of reduction in key raw material prices, specifically in the second half of the year, on the back of significant drop in crude prices.

 

 

Employee cost as a percentage to net revenue from operations increased to 5.2% (Rs. 6069.400 million) as against 4.6% (Rs.4824.300 million) in the previous year. The increase is mainly on account of falling bond yields during the year which adversely impacted the provision for retirement benefits.

 

Other expenses as a percentage to net revenue from operations increased to 22.2% (Rs.25915.200 million) as against 21.3% (Rs.22191.300 million) in the previous year.
