Comments :

Subject was incorporated in 1981 as a 35.5% each JV between Bharat Forge Limited and Meritor Inc, USA. It is presently the largest independent manufacturer of Rear Drive Axle Assemblies for CVs in India.

 

The company product portfolio includes a wide range of rear drive axles catering to haulage trucks, tippers and tractor trailers. It is also engaged in brake assembly for CVs.

 

It’s customers include all the major players in the CV industry-Ashok Leyland Limited, Tata Motors Limited, Vehicle Factory (Jabalpur), Mahindra and Mahindra Limited, Asia Motors Works Limited and Force Motors Limited (Force) in India and Meritor USA, Europe and China.

 

As per financials of March 2017, the company has registered a growth of 5.60% in its revenue as compared to its previous year’s revenue and has reported fair profit margin of 4.24%.

 

Rating takes into consideration the company’s long established track record of business operations marked by healthy net worth base along with debt free balance sheet and good liquidity position.

 

Rating also takes into account the strong market position in the axle manufacturing industry and well established customer base with healthy share of business with several major commercial vehicle (CV) manufacturers.

 

Share are quoted very high on Stock Exchanges. (Shares are traded at a price of INR 1580.40 against its face value of INR 10.)

 

However, rating strength is partially offset by highly competitive intensity in the industry with presence of international players in the domestic market and exposed to cyclicality in the M&HCV industry.

 

As per unaudited quarterly financials of December 2017, the company has achieved a revenue of INR 4079.267 million and has reported good profit margin of 5.47%.

 

Payments seems to be regular as per commitments.

 

In view of aforesaid, the company can be considered good for business dealings at normal trade terms and conditions.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDIAN ECONOMY

 

India recorded an economic growth rate of 7.1% during 2016-17 driven by strong consumption and fiscal reforms. A stable government, increased purchasing power, large domestic market, and an ever-increasing development in infrastructure have made India a favourable destination for investment.

 

INFLATION: The retail inflation stayed above the comfort zone of 5% till August 2016. However, it started moderating thereafter due to a normal monsoon, dropping to a two-year low of 3.4%. The average inflation for FY 2016-17 stood at 4.5% (4.9% in FY 2015-16)

 

FISCAL deficit: The fiscal deficit as a percentage of GDP stood at 3.5% for 2016-17. This has been revised to 3.2% for 2017-18.

 

CURRENT ACCOUNT DEFICIT: The current account deficit as a percentage of GDP stood at 0.9% lowest in the last five years.

 

CURRENCY: The Rupee saw a marginal depreciation as it stood at INR 65.90 during 2016-17 (INR 66 in 2015-16).

 

FY 2016-17 witnessed some of India’s boldest economic reforms: Demonetisation and GST. The demonetisation

of high value currency notes was targeted towards preventing corruption, counterfeiting, terrorist activities and accumulation of black money. Further, this move strengthened cash flow into the banking system, which was afflicted with bad loans. Besides, demonetisation is expected to lead India on a path of higher GDP growth, better tax compliances and larger tax revenues by reducing corruption. Additionally, it is likely to have significant positive influence on India’s banking habits.

 

The government envisioned a transparent and formal economy for India, based on digital platforms and demonetisation served as a seminal reform in this vision. Together with the upcoming Goods and Service Tax (GST) bill, it is set to change how the Indian economy functions. GST is to introduce a simplified indirect tax system that will unite the fragmented Indian market under uniform taxation. The new tax structure will not just widen the tax cover but promote transparency and competition in the market. Moreover, it is expected to contribute significantly to the country’s GDP in future.

 

Overall, India is set for a long-term growth trajectory, driven by greater access to banking, technology adoption, urbanisation and other structural reforms.

 

 

INDIAN AUTOMOBILES INDUSTRY

 

India is the third largest automobile industry in the world, and the sector accounts for 7.1% of the country’s GDP.

India’s automobile sector is growing backed by rising disposable incomes and multiplying middle-class and youth populations. Moreover, rapid urbanisation and want for better transport infrastructure along with easily available finance is expanding demand in this sector. Besides, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are penetrating rural markets and targeting women across the country, which further augments demand in the automobile sector.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The Indian auto component industry is expected to grow by 8-10% in FY 2017-18. This growth will be based on higher localisation in procurements by OEMs, higher component content per vehicle, and rising exports from India (Source: ICRA Limited).

 

The aftermarket is expected to grow at 10.5% to touch US$ 13 billion by 2019-20, as compared to US$ 8.4 billion in 2016-17 (Source: IBEF).

 

Rising vendor consolidation, faster aftermarket growth, and increasing localisation of procuring components are likely to bolster the sector, going forward. Moreover, export-oriented growth and expanding number of electronic components per vehicle will induce the Indian auto component segment to consistently develop.
