OPERATIONS AND BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

 

The Company achieved a turnover of Rs. 143970.000 Million during the year 2014-15. The turnover was marginally lower than the previous year due to non-allocation of wheat from Central Pool stocks by the Govt. for exports that resulted into a decline of Rs.16840.000 Million in the turnover and changes in Govt. policies with regard to import of gold which led to a decline of Rs. 30620.000 Million in the turnover vis-à-vis the previous year. The loss of turnover was, to a large extent, made good by undertaking exports to Iran and higher import of fertilizers in addition to other new initiatives like import of cashew, domestic sale of fertilizers and cardamom auctions.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS REPORT

 

WORLD ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Legacies of both the global meltdown and the euro zone crisis being still visible, world economy continued to grow moderately at 3.4 per cent in 2014, same as in 2013. Advanced economies grew at 1.8 per cent in 2014 visà- vis 1.4 per cent in 2013. However, a slowdown was witnessed in emerging markets and developing economies where the growth slowed down from 5 per cent in 2013 to 4.6 per cent in 2014. Despite the slowdown, emerging markets and developing economies still accounted for three-fourths of global growth in 2014.

 

The recovery in the United States seems to be stabilizing with strong output and rising employment figures and economic growth touching 2.4 per cent in 2014. In Europe, the picture was mixed, with many countries recording stronger growth, while some others continued to suffer from weak growth driven by protracted internal demand, high unemployment, and financial fragmentation. With slight improvement in consumption supported by lower oil prices and higher net exports, Euro region grew at about 1 per cent vis-à-vis a negative growth rate last year. In

Japan, growth was close to zero in 2014, reflecting weak consumption and plummeting residential investment.

 

Large economies in the emerging markets and developing economies such as China and CIS experienced a slowdown in 2014. China’s growth fell from 7.8 per cent in 2013 to 7.4 per cent in 2014 mostly due to decline in investment growth and correction in real estate in the second half of 2014. The increase in geopolitical tensions, declining confidence, international sanctions and the repercussions of the oil price decline led to poor performance by Russian Economy which grew at only 0.6 per cent in 2014.

 

The year 2014 saw a substantial decline in the price of oil by almost 50 per cent during Jun.’14 to Dec.’14. The large fall in oil prices was driven by demand and supply factors. The year saw a steady rise in production in countries not belonging to OPEC, especially the United States and faster-than-expected recovery of production in some stressed OPEC producers like Iraq. The oil sector also witnessed some weakness in the demand for oil driven by improvements in energy efficiency.

 

The sharp fall in oil prices also led to a fall in commodity prices. Metal prices also fell due to slowing of demand growth in China and significant increases in the supply of most metals. Food prices declined mostly on account of favourable harvests. The overall commodity price index during 2014 declined by 6.1 per cent compared to 2013.

 

OVERVIEW OF INDIAN ECONOMY

 

India emerged as one of the fastest growing economies during 2014 recording a robust 7.2 per cent growth in GDP rate. The year saw marked decline in inflation, and comfortable external position, helped by positive policies and lower global oil prices. The year also witnessed a sea change in the macroeconomic parameters and major policy reforms in the economy such as de-regulation of diesel prices, taxing energy products, replacing cooking gas subsidy by direct transfer on national scale, introducing reforms in the coal sector by allocation of coal blocks through auctions, increasing FDI caps in defence, etc.

 

The improvement came on the back of better performance in the industrial sector, stable growth in the services sector and a surprisingly resilient agriculture sector. Policy decisions on the environmental clearances and mining licenses helped prop up sentiments, while a push to some stuck projects aided the growth prospects. The growth in 2014-15 was largely driven by domestic demand as there was hardly any external support to growth in 2014-15. This is evident from a projected negative growth of 1.54 per cent in exports and a negative growth of 0.59 per cent in imports. The deceleration in imports owe substantially to the sharp decline in international oil prices leading to compressed oil import bill.

 

Growth rate in Gross Value Added (GVA) at basic prices in agriculture declined from 3.7 per cent in 2013-14 to

1.1 per cent in 2014-15, largely due to erratic monsoon affecting the summer crop.

 

The manufacturing sector maintained the growth momentum in 2014-15 registering a growth in GVA at basic prices of 6.8 per cent vis-à-vis 5.3 per cent in 2013-14.

 

The services sector continued to flourish with a growth of 10.6 per cent, higher than 9.1 per cent recorded in 2013-14. The growth in the services sector was mainly due to better performance in financial, real estate and professional services besides public administration, defence and other services. There was also good growth in trade, hotels, transport, communication and related services.

 

Within the mining sector, multiple clearances on the policy front helped, particularly in the case of coal production.

Coal output rose despite the cancellation of 204 mining licenses, essentially showing the government‘s intent to bring down coal imports. Steel production suffered lower production volumes on account of a massive decline in global prices. Overall, core industries also performed better than the previous year with the industry sector growing by 5.9 per cent in 2014-15 as compared to 4.5 per cent in the previous year. Electricity production registered a growth of 9.6 per cent in 2014-15 as compared to 4.8 per cent in the previous year.

 

The inflation was at its lowest level in seven years with average inflation in CPI for industrial workers declining to 6.3 per cent during 2014-15 from 9.7 per cent in the preceding year.

 

Cumulative value of exports during 2014-15 was US$ 309.6 billion as against US$ 314.4 billion whereas cumulative value of imports stood at US$ 447.5 billion as against US$ 450.2 billion. Thus, both exports and imports declined respectively by 1.54 per cent and 0.59 per cent in 2014-15 compared to last year.

 

The foreign exchange reserves of the country reached an all time high of US$ 341.4 billion as on March 27, 2015.

The rupee had hit its rock bottom on August 28, 2013 at 68.83 per dollar. Since then, it appreciated nine per cent.

The fortunes of the currency and reserves have changed, initially due to a few bold and innovative steps by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and subsequently due to improving investor sentiments.

 

 

STC’s PERFORMANCE

 

The Company achieved a turnover of Rs. 143970.000 Million during the year 2014-15. The turnover was marginally lower than the previous year due to non-allocation of wheat from Central Pool stocks by the Govt. for exports that resulted in a decline of Rs. 16840.000 Million in the turnover and changes in Govt. policies with regard to import of gold which led to a decline of Rs. 30620.000 Million in the turnover vis-à-vis the previous year. The loss of turnover was, to a large extent, made good by undertaking exports to Iran and higher import of fertilizers in addition to other new initiatives like import of cashew, domestic sale of fertilizers and cardamom auction.

 

 

SEGMENT-WISE PERFORMANCE & OUTLOOK

 

Exports

 

During the year, the Company achieved an export turnover of Rs. 18840.000 Million, which is the highest export turnover recorded in the last six years. The Company had entered into a long term contract with an Iranian Government company for export of 2.5 million MTs of steel plates/coils. During the year 2014-15, exports worth Rs. 16890.000 Million were made to Iran against this contract.

 

The Company expects to shortly commence exports against contracts entered into with Iranian Railways for exports of 2.5 lakh MTs of rails during 2015-16.

 

Besides above, the Company exported agro-chemicals amounting to Rs. 340.000 Million and steel products worth Rs. 490.000 Million to various other buyers in Iran.

 

The Company is in advanced stages of discussion with various parties in Iran for export of railway wagons.

Discussions are also underway for import of iron ore and export of iron ore pellets involving an Iranian Government company and another Indian public sector company. STC is also exploring opportunities of trade in the areas like exports of steel plates, seamless pipes, agro-commodities, gold jewellery, pharma products, engineering goods and import of urea, crude oil, LPG, natural gas, etc.

 

The Company exported wheat worth Rs. 900.000 Million during the 2014-15 against fulfilment of contracts of previous years. However, no fresh exports of wheat could be made due to GOI decision not to export any quantities of wheat out of Central Pool Stocks as against exports of Rs. 17740.000 Million worth of wheat during 2013-14. The Company also exported small quantities of maize and rice during the year 2014-15.

 

Imports

 

The import turnover of Rs. 120420.000 Million during 2014-15 was lower by 11 per cent vis-a-vis previous year mainly due to a substantial decline in imports of bullion. Major highlights of performance on import front are as under:

 

Bullion

 

In the recent years, Company’s imports of bullion have seen a decline due to frequent changes in Government policies relating to import of gold. Also, with a number of Trading Houses having been allowed imports w.e.f. May

2014 and scrapping of 20:80 scheme w.e.f. November 2014, the competition increased leading to thin margins and decline in bullion imports by the company. Though, bullion continued to be the single largest item of import, its turnover decreased from Rs. 116540.000 Million in 2013-14 to Rs. 85920.000 Million in 2014-15.

 

Urea

 

The Company’s turnover from import of urea increased to Rs. 29010.000 Million vis-à-vis Rs. 14950.000 Million in 2013-14 due to higher quantities of import made by the company on behalf of GOI.

 

Coal/Coke

 

The Company continued to successfully undertake import of coal/coke for private parties and supplied imported coal/coke worth Rs. 1110.000 Million.

 

Edible Oils

 

During the year, company imported edible oils for small processing/ packaging units and effected sales worth over Rs. 2090.000 Million as compared to Rs. 690.000 Million in 2013-14. This included import sale of coconut oil undertaken as a canalizing agency of GOI.

 

Cashew

 

The Company entered into an MOU with Kerala State Cashew Development Corporation Ltd. (KSCDC), an enterprise of Kerala Government for import of raw cashew nuts and imported raw cashews worth Rs. 1000.000 Million on their behalf.

 

Equipments/Instruments

 

The Company also imported various equipments/ instruments worth Rs. 330.000 Million on behalf of state governments/ departments as against Rs. 60.000 Million in previous year.
