MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

ECONOMIC SCENARIO

 

Global Economy

The global GDP was in line with expectations at around 3.1 percent. Economic activity in advanced economies and emerging economies is projected to accelerate leading to a global GDP estimate of 3.4 percent in 2017. [Source: IMF]

 

Among advanced economies, activity rebounded strongly in the USA during the second half of 2016 and witnessed an increase in employment numbers. The economic output remained below potential in a number of other advanced economies including the European Union. In 2016, Japan witnessed a higher than expected growth rate.

 

Long-term interest rates increased in advanced economies in the second half of 2016 as central banks started focusing on inflation. Crude oil and commodity prices recovered in 2016 after touching a low, on the back of strong infrastructure investment in China and on expectations of fiscal easing in the USA.

 

Indian Economy

GDP growth is projected to be around 7 percent for 2016-17 as compared to 7.9 percent in 2015-16. It was an eventful year and some of the key events were passage of important legislations including GST, demonetization, ban by Supreme Court on sale of BS III vehicles, etc.

 

Political stability provided a sound background for the Indian economy and interest rates gradually fell through the ear as growth was supported by Government’s capex spending and efficiency improvements. But weakness in the banking sector, signaled by the continuing trend of bad loans affected credit offtake. Uneven distribution of rainfall and a slight deficit could not boost agricultural output as expected.

 

Foreign investment in India continued to remain buoyant and capital flows ensured that the currency was stable. This was also aided by a moderate growth in exports. The effects of demonetization and the subsequent remonetization are still not clear though the economy seems to have moved beyond this uncertainty. On the monetary policy front though there were signs of growth slowing down, the central bank moved away from an accommodative stance to a neutral stance because of its commitment to an inflation-targeting framework. The broad indicators for the Indian economy like fiscal deficit, current account deficit and inflation looks to be under control. However, the pickup in growth momentum is yet to be witnessed on ground.

 

Industry Structure and Development

Automotive:

In 2016-17, Passenger Vehicle production grew by 11 percent driven by improved market sentiments, favorable fuel prices, easy availability of finance, continued economic revival, increased disposable income and new launches. Heavy Commercial Vehicles (HCVs) production posted subdued growth of 2 percent impacted by lower fleet expansion, demonetization and emissionchangeover.

 

The Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) market grew by 6 percent mainly driven by infrastructure and e-Commerce growth along with increased rural demand.

 

The Tractor market grew by 21 percent favored by a good monsoon and positive farmer sentiments. Three-wheelers production declined by 16 percent due to muted domestic demand and weakening export demand.

 

Non-Automotive:

 

Considering the new positive thrust to the Indian infrastructure and manufacturing sectors, and a slew of government initiatives like ‘Make in India’ and ‘Skill India’, the power tool market witnessed a considerable growth. However, the do-it-yourself (DIY) segment in power tool is yet to be developed. Unlike the developed nations, the DIY segment is still at a nascent stage in the emerging markets including India.

 

While pockets of opportunities for growth in security technology industry exist, the space is getting competitive and price sensitive. With the advent of embedded applications in security products, surveillance is now emerging as a tool for gathering business intelligence. The addition of video analytics software to the surveillance solutions is enabling businesses to garner deeper insights into their existing operations.

 

As value for money continues to characterize the packaging market, packaging solutions have to be innovative and cost efficient. The packaging equipment industry continues to ride on the growth of consumer demand, aided by increasing disposable income with low inflation. Despite a growing market for packaged items, the packaging equipment industry is highly unorganized, comprising several small players, each accounting for a two to five per cent market share. With China and India together projected to account for 21 percent of the global packaging machinery demand by 2020, localization is slated to become a major driver to capture the Indian Packaging market.

 

The renewable energy sector in India is growing rapidly indicating strong financial prospect . Investments in solar sector are expected to surpass coal by 2019-20, with USD 35 billion committed by global players. At the end of the year , India crossed 12.2 GW of cumulative solar installations and still has a way to go to achieve the ambitious target of 100 GW by 2022. Further, India has plans to add 5 GW of rooftop solar and 10 GW from large-scale solar power projects in the current fiscal year. India has a bright opportunity to reshape its energy mix. Social and economic growth are at the top of the Government’s agenda, and new energy sources to serve this demand are increasingly coming from renewable energy.

 

Business and segment wise performance

The overall performance of the Company witnessed a growth of 7.6 percent. Mobility business (Automotive) posted a growth of 5.9 percent, while the Business beyond mobility (Non-Automotive) grew by 16.8 percent. Domestic mobility business witnessed an increase of 7.4 percent, largely because of rise in sale of diesel and gasoline products, marginally higher than the automotive market growth of 7.0 percent.

 

The Company predominantly operates in manufacturing and trading of mobility solutions, which constituted 85.5 percent of total sales for the Financial Year 2016-17. The Business beyond mobility, comprising of Industrial Technology, Consumer Goods and Energy and Building Technology, had a share of 14.5 percent. Hence, the operating segment consists of “Mobility Solutions” (Automotive Products) and “Business beyond mobility” (Others).

PRESS RELEASE/ NEWS

 

BOSCH IS PUTTING ELECTROMOBILITY ON INDIAN STREETS

 
READY TO OFFER PORTFOLIO OF ELECTRIFIED SOLUTIONS FOR THE LOCAL MARKET

 

2017-09-01 | India | Corporate News

·         Bosch plans to move into first series production in Indian market after 2018

·         Bosch India will provide the end-to-end electrified solutions adapted to the Indian market

·         Bosch offers wide range of comprehensive solutions for two-wheelers

·         Bosch Limited will increase the regional competence for electrified solutions

·         Bosch Asia Pacific board member: “India a great incubator for an electric future"

Bengaluru – Over 40 Indian cities are home to more than a million residents. With mobility requirements at its greatest in urban sprawls, Bosch foresees electrification as a future growth area in India. The company is ready to offer its portfolio of electrified solutions for the local market. “Small-vehicle segments will drive the transition to mass electrification, as urban dwellers seek a simple and affordable alternative to conventional standards,” stated Mr. Peter Tyroller, member of the board of management of the Bosch Group responsible for Asia Pacific. The company’s range of electrified solutions aims to address India’s individual mobility requirements. Despite the focus on electromobility as a long-term alternative, internal combustion engines will still play a major role in the near future – the powertrain of the future will be a mix of electromobility and combustion engines.

 

Electromobility offers competitive edge for Bosch in India

“Today, the Indian supplier base is fragmented for electromobility solutions. With the current powertrain offerings from Bosch India, the company is aiming to bridge this gap and have the first mover advantage,” remarked Mr. Tyroller. Bosch India will draw upon its global lineage to offer local customers the complete value chain of offerings with respect to electromobility. Currently, the company is in advanced stages of development and plans to move into series production after 2018.

 

The Central Government’s initiative with the target to have an all-electric fleet in India by 2030 as well as the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric Vehicles (FAME) program offer Bosch a competitive edge. The company provides customized solutions to be able to contribute in achieving this impending target, given the necessary infrastructure is being set in place. Bosch has developed an integrated electrification system including motor, control unit, battery, charger, display, and app that can power light two-, three- and four-wheel electric vehicles.

 

Setting the baseline for future technology in India

Following its localization strategy, Bosch aims to develop a comprehensive electrification system for India, which takes the country’s environmental conditions and powertrain requirements into account. In a pilot project, the powertrain system was integrated to define the adaptations required in order to create a powertrain platform specifically tailored to the India market.

 

“There are a lot of vehicles in the Indian automotive market right now that have the scope to be electrified. This makes India a great incubator for an electric future,” said, Mr. Tyroller. The electrification systems from Bosch can easily be integrated with any light vehicle. This helps the manufacturers with their go-to-market strategy. The solution has been made scalable across all performance classes between 0.25-20 kW. This electrified solution delivers high performance even under challenging circumstances. The team at Bosch India has been working on this solution since 2016, and worked on areas such as prototype development and system integration.

 

Electric two-wheelers can resolve last mile connectivity concerns

Two-wheelers have been the lifeline of India’s transportation network. According to a study around 1.2 million electric two-wheelers are set to hit the local market by 2020. The demand for electromobility has grown substantially over the past few years. Bosch offers the full-line of solutions required to meet the needs of the Indian two-wheeler market. Its technology is adaptable to meet the demands of the performance segment. “We see particular potential for electromobility in India first across the scooter segment,” mentioned Mr. Tyroller. Electromobility will play an important role in meeting the requirements of intra-city travel. “Even from the perspective of economics, an electric scooter will be more relevant for a person looking to run some household errands in and around his society,” he stated. Other added advantages include less maintenance requirement, and a noise-free vehicle.

Pre-requisite to electromobility is shared and connected mobility

The shared economy of today is especially relevant among its young urban audience who clearly prefer simple and stress-free mobility. Electromobility will therefore likely gain ground in the years to come via fleet operators. Considering the positive intent of all stakeholders towards electromobility, Bosch Limited will look to increase the extent of localization of its electrified portfolio in India.

BEHIND THE NOKIA–BOSCH DEAL

 

OCTOBER 24, 2017

 

Collaboration around industrial IoT

 

Finland-based Nokia (NOK) and Germany-based (EWJ) Bosch Connected Devices recently announced a strategic partnership connected to industrial IoT (Internet of Things) solutions.

 

Under the collaboration, Nokia would provide the IoT cloud platform and IoT connectivity services while Bosch provides smart sensors. The companies said that their collaboration would allow for easier and faster development of solutions for large logistics providers, operators, and other industrial players.

 

Commercial rollout likely in early 2018

 

The Nokia–Bosch partnership would initially work on solutions for asset tracking, predictive maintenance, and environmental monitoring. Trials of the solutions are underway in Europe (EFA), the Middle East, and Africa, with a commercial rollout of the solutions expected in early 2018.

 

The bigger picture of the Nokia–Bosch industrial IoT partnership is to enable enterprises and communications service providers to more easily implement industrial IoT solutions. Companies are drawn to industrial IoT by benefits such as the ability to improve productivity, enhance operational efficiency, and reduce process complexities. As a result, the industrial IoT market is growing rapidly.

 

Opportunity to grow and diversify revenue sources

According to Grand View Research, the global industrial IoT market was worth more than $100 billion in 2016. The market is expected to expand at an average annual rate 27.8% over the next decade to reach $933.6 billion by 2025.

 

A breakthrough in the multibillion-dollar industrial IoT market could provide a compelling opportunity for revenue growth and revenue diversification for Nokia. The company has traditionally looked to telecom equipment sales for the majority of its revenues.

 

As the 4G network rollout has reached peak levels in markets like the US (SPY) and with the commercial 5G network rollout still years out, Nokia has struggled with limited growth opportunity in its core market. Nokia hopes its partnership with Bosch would give it an edge against rival Ericsson (ERIC) as they pursue growth outside their traditional telecom equipment market.
