MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
INDUSTRY
STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS
Print
media is one of the oldest and basic forms of mass communication and the
contribution of print media in providing information and transfer of knowledge is
remarkable. Even after the advent of electronic media, the print media has not
lost its charm or relevance. Print media has the advantage of making a longer
impact on the minds of the reader, with more in-depth reporting and analysis.
According
to FICCI-KPMG Indian Media and Entertainment Industry Report 2015, the
structure of the Indian Print industry continues to be highly fragmented with
both national and regional players present in the market. As on March 31, 2014,
total registered publications stood more than 99000, out of which more than
13000 are dailies. In 2014, the Indian Print Industry experienced growth of
8.3% and this growth is largely coming from Tier II and Tier III cities with
regional language editions outperforming the national editions and English
dailies. This trend is expected to continue as most of the major publishers are
working towards strengthening their presence in existing markets. Newspapers
continue to be the biggest contributor of revenue to the print industry. In
2014, the contribution of newspapers to the total print revenue stood close to
95%. The Indian print industry is still growing at a high single digit rate and
is expected to grow at a CAGR to 8 per cent during 2014-15. Most of the growth
in the sector is expected to come from Tier II, Tier III cities and rural
markets.
The
Company belongs to the Regional Print Media Industry and is a publisher of
“SANDESH” a premier Gujarati daily newspaper in Gujarat Region, to carry on the
business of editing, printing and publishing newspapers and periodicals. The
Company started its first printing facilities at Ahmedabad.
Late
Shri Chimanbhai S. Patel acquired the entire business from the original
promoter in the year 1958, and had put his efforts to strengthen the activities
carried out by “SANDESH”. The editorial policy of the Company has always been
based on basic journalistic values of objectivity and has not been influenced
by any external forces. Presently, Shri Falgunbhai Patel, Chairman &
Managing Director is running the entire business affairs of the Company along
with Shri Parthiv Patel, Managing Director and a professional team of the
Executives of the Company.
The
Company has started its printing facilities at Baroda during 1985-86, at Surat
during 1989-90, at Rajkot during 1990-91, at Bhavnagar during 1998-99 and at
Bhuj during 2010-11 to cater to the semi urban and rural areas. The Company has
now total seven editions, six editions from Gujarat and one edition from
Mumbai, Maharashtra. The Company has a strong regional franchise, where it
enjoys strong readership loyalty.
Besides
the Company publishes “Stree”, a weekly magazine and also the periodical
“Sandesh Pratyaksha Panchang” which remained popular among the public. A weekly
newspaper ‘Agro Sandesh’, specific to the rural community of the State of
Gujarat covering the farming, dairy and co-operative sector was successfully
launched and which is contributing positively to the development of the farmers
of the State of Gujarat and allied agricultural industries.
The
Company’s News TV channel ‘Sandesh News’ is immensely popular amongst Gujarati
Viewers and it has also won several awards. Further, as a part of its
out-of-home advertising activity, the Company has advertisements sites at the
major commercial areas in Ahmedabad. The Company is also successfully operating
its real estate and finance businesses.
SEGMENT-WISE
OR PRODUCT-WISE PERFOMANCE
a) Media:
This
is the core business of the Company since its inception. The Company had been able
to maintain its business volumes despite stiff competition in the regional
media industry. The revenue from the media segment was Rs.3081.279 Million
during the Financial Year as against Rs.2732.955 Million in previous Financial
Year.
b) Finance Division:
The
Company has been in the Financing business and during the year, the segment
revenue from Finance Division was Rs.303.075 Million during the Financial Year
as against Rs.356.660 Million in the previous year.
c) Real Estate Division:
The
Company has been in the Real Estate business and during the year, the segment
revenue from Real Estate Division was Rs.29.589 Million during the Financial
Year as against Rs.26.557 Million in the previous year.
OUTLOOK,
RISKS AND CONCERNS
The
increase in population, literacy rate and reach has led to increased
circulation and readership of the newspapers in India. The Company is steadily
increasing its geographical presence, which helps improve its circulation and
readership of its publications. The business outlook for the Print Media
Industry and the Company looks good. Both readership and circulation of
newspapers, especially for vernacular newspapers, is growing in India. Print
Media is expected to remain a popular vehicle for advertisers to reach out to a
large consumer base in the country. The Media and Entertainment industry is
expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.9% by financial year 2019, which is a growth
rate almost double that of the global media and entertainment industry.
Newsprint
is the most important raw material constituting more than 50 per cent of the
cost base. According to FICCI-KPMG Indian Media and Entertainment Industry
Report 2015, the appreciation of rupee in the first half of FY 2014 and sharp
depreciation of rouble had led to a drop in the per-tonne cost of newsprint, as
Canada, United States and Russia are the top exporters of news print material
to India. The newsprint prices are expected to stabilize at the current level
or slightly lower to FY 15, thus providing some operating leverage to the print
business across the country. The Newsprint prices reduced and stabilized in
2014, contrary to the past few years where the average cost of newsprint
witnessed a growth of 12 to 15 per cent every year. The newsprint price is cyclical
and is dependent on various factors. Prices of Newsprint are linked to global
demand and they are volatile in nature due to fluctuation in USD. The Company
keeps close watch on the development on the Newsprint front. The Company uses
imported as well as domestic newsprint and by judicious mix of them, tries to
mitigate the high cost impact on the business operations.
The
print media business is largely dependent on advertising revenue. The Company
has increased cover price of newspaper and it is continuously taking
appropriate steps to ensure effective cost management.
For
the print media industry, reliable third party readership data is not available
and many companies hesitant to rely on IRS data for devising their strategies.
The circulation numbers of newspaper alone sometimes are insufficient for
advertisers to take an informed decision; still, the circulation numbers
certified by the Registrar of Newspapers of India are useful for the
advertisers and agencies and the Company enjoys the confidence of its
advertisers.
There
is intense competition between publication houses for circulation, readership
and advertising and this industry is very competitive. The Company is well
established and its has better financial resources and it always strives hard
to generate higher revenues every year and hence, the Company is able to
quickly respond to market changes and consumer sentiments. The Company has
competed successfully in the year and it believes to continuously compete
effectively. The Company is continuously strengthening its market positions,
reinforcing its relationships with Agents, Advertisers and providing high
quality contents to its readers. The Company’s website i.e. “www.sandesh.com”
is a very popular website for the Gujarati community.

i. Claims against the company not acknowledged as debt There are several defamation and other legal cases pending against the Company and its directors. These include criminal and civil cases. The company has also raised counter claims against some of the claimants. The estimated contingency in respect of these cases cannot be ascertained. Based on discussions with the lawyers / solicitors and also the past trend in respect of such cases, the Company believes that there is no present obligation in respect of the above and hence no provision is considered necessary against the same. |
