Comments :

Subject was incorporated on 29th March 2000 and was initially in the business of manufacturing of fixed wireless terminals and phones.

 

In 2009, the company began the business of trading in third party manufactured mobile phones under its brand namely ‘Micromax’. The company has operations spread across India and also has a global presence in Russia and SAARC markets (Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal).

 

As per the Registrar of Companies date of balance sheet (i.e. financial filed) is shown as 31.03.2017 but documents related to the financial for the year 31.03.2017 are not available from any sources.

 

The product portfolio consists of feature-phones, dual-SIM phones, Android smart-phones, data cards, tablets, and LED televisions. The Company also provides the services of providing space for pre-embedding of VAS applications on the handsets traded by it.

 

For the financial year ended 2016, the company has reported a decline of 5.98% in its revenue as compared to the previous year but has managed to maintain an average net profit margin of 1.36%.

 

Rating continues to derive strength from the experienced promoters, established brand, nationwide distributor-dealer network and comfortable financial risk profile.

 

Further, the company has provided guarantee of INR 4007.67 million and INR 700 million to Micromax Informatics FZE and Bhagwati Products Limited respectively which belong to its associates company. It has also provided loans of INR 1.12 million, INR 797.19 million and INR 919.17 million to Mobi Serve Private Limited, Micromax Informatics FZE and YU Televentures Private Limited respectively.

 

However, these rating strengths are partially offset by its dependence on third-party suppliers for products/ services, exposure to foreign exchange risks and stiff competition in the mobile handset industry.

 

As per the current press release, State owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) network has tied up with Micromax Informatics and Lava International to build low-cost devices which will be paired with voice and data pack bundle to provide more value to counter Reliance Jio.

 

Micromax is banking on bringing possibly the lowest priced 4G smartphone in India, which may be priced at less than INR 1,000, to take back its place amongst the top five players in the segment by the end of the year.

 

Micromax plans to launch Bharat 2 Ultra which from next month, with calling and data plan from Vodafone. The effective price of the device will be INR 999 as consumers buying the phone will get cash back over three years, bringing down their buying price from INR 2,899.

 

Business is active. Payment seems to be regular.

 

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

BACKGROUND

 

The Company is a public Company domiciled in India and was incorporated on 29 March 2000. The Company is a leading consumer electronics player in India. The Company is engaged in the business of trading of mobile phones under its brands namely “Micromax” and “YU” (through its subsidiary YU Televentures Private Limited), tablets, LED televisions, monitors and data-cards. The Company has its operations across Russia and SAARC markets through its subsidiary “Micromax Informatics FZE, Dubai”. The Company also provides the services of providing space for pre-embedding and activation of value added services applications on the handsets traded by it. The Company has started taking research and development services from its newly established subsidiary “Micromax Informatics Technology (Beijing) Co. Ltd. w.e.f. 20 April 2015.

PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY

 

On a standalone basis the Company achieved revenue of INR 98254.620 million in the financial year 2015-16 as compared to INR 104504.770 million in financial year 2014-15 thereby reduction of 5.98% and the profit for the financial year 2015-16 is INR 1339.560 million in comparison to INR 3638.700 million in financial year 2014-15 reduction of 63.19%.

 

 

STATE OF COMPANY’S AFFAIRS

 

The year gone by was a challenging year for the industry as a whole. The overall growth was much slower than expected. Despite many a new entrant in the domestic market, Micromax Informatics Ltd. continued to be the number 1 Indian mobile brand and held its position at number 2 in the overall market scenario, continuing to challenge the leader at closer range. The growth in Smart phones category in FY2016 was marked by the significant growth of the e-commerce platforms. Canvas Spark became one of the largest selling phones in India last year and drove Micromax to a leadership position on that platform. Micromax continued to drive innovation in the category including the launch of the world’s thinnest phone – the Canvas Sliver; reinforcing their leadership position in the ‘language phone’ segment with Unite 3 and marking their entry into the 4G segment with a slew of new products. The premium Brand Yu also performed well in its first full year of operations clocking a growth of

300%.

 

As part of its diversified growth strategy, Micromax continued to focus into new products and services opportunities with commendable growth. LED segment grew by 47%, thus emerging as one of the leading players in TV market focusing on providing latest technology and affordability. Tablet business recorded a growth of 136%. Their focus on providing customers with more value for money on their smartphone through innovative Value added services continued reaping rich dividends clocking growth of 80% in VAS Revenues. VAS segment has clearly emerged as a key differentiator in the market thus propelling their customer offerings leading from the front. Micromax will continue to invest into product and service initiatives to keep delighting the customers with bouquet of new offerings on a continuous basis.

 

Micromax continued its International Initiatives on a strong footing, with commendable business growth, both in Volumes and Values across the geographies of Russia, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Nepal. In FY15-16, international operations achieved volume growth of 92% (up from 2.8 Million units to 5.4 Million Units) and value growth of 78% (up from 70 Million USD to 125 Million USD).

 

Because of sluggish growth in mobile segment in domestic market, especially in smartphones, Micromaxdomestic business growth was impacted resulting in lower Revenues by 6%, but overall Consolidated Revenues grew by 3%.

 

Micromax continued to leverage its massive distribution network across the Geography and strong Brand presence coupled with best-in-class customer service to delight the customers and managed to leverage the market growth and sustain market position. Micromax continued to be at the forefront of building a strong consumer connect. We continued to drive strong top of mind recall by associating with sponsorship opportunities including the Micromax Asia Cup (Bangladesh), Micromax Indian Aces (IPTL Season 2), Micromax South India International Movie Awards while also sponsoring sports, movies and music properties in leading channels. 2016FY was marked by their early entry into video streaming online channels like Hotstar that gave us very high & targeted reach at a very low cost. They also reallocated significant investments into driving retail visibility in key markets.

 

 

CHANGE IN THE NATURE OF BUSINESS, IF ANY

PRESS RELEASES 

 

MICROMAX PARTNERS WITH VODAFONE LAUNCHES BHARAT 2 ULTRA 4G PHONE AT AN EFFECTIVE PRICE OF INR 999

 

OCT 25, 2017

 

Home grown phone manufacturer -- Micromax joined hands with Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) to launch Bharat 1 earlier this month. The company now brings the cheapest 4G smartphone in India, as claimed by the company itself -- called the -- Bharat 2 Ultra at an effective price of Rs 999. The 4G smartphone will be available in India starting Nov first week. 

 

With the Bharat 2 Ultra, Micromax is possibly aiming at gaining back its long lost position and become one of the top five smartphone manufacturing companies in this segment. Commenting on the initiative, Rahul Sharma, co-founder of Micromax Informatics said, "We should be back in top five in smartphones within this quarter and we will take back our position." Rahul further added that Micromax has managed to sell over 2 million Bharat 2 units in India from its launch.

 

Micromax launches the Bharat 2 Ultra at an effective price of INR 999 in a partnership with Vodafone India. With Bharat 2 Ultra, Micromax and Vodafone has applied almost the same strategy as Airtel and Karbonn did with the newly launch Karbonn A40 Indian 4G phone.

 

Initially, the consumers will need to buy the Bharat 2 Ultra at INR 2,899. But then, there are a lot of conditions, much like the Karbonn A40 Indian and also JioPhone. The company will later refund a sum of INR 1,999 over a period of 3 years. This is how it will work. After buying the phone with INR 2,899, the consumers will have to recharge their numbers (Vodafone) with INR 150 every month, under which the users will get voice calling and data services. Doing this for 18 months continuously, Micromax will offer a cashback of INR 900. After the next 18 months --- during this time consumers will have to continue with the INR 150/month plan - Micromax will offer another INR 1,000 cashback to the consumer.

Avneesh Khosla, Vodafone India Associate Director of Consumer Business says that the customers can do as many recharges as they want in a months, just that the cumulative recharge value should total to INR 150 or more.

Overall, the company will refund INR 1,900, which means, for Bharat 2 Ultra, the consumers will have to pay INR 999. Bharat2 Ultra buyers will get the INR 1,999 refund in their Vodafone M-Pesa wallets. Commenting on the partnership, Khosla says, "We are delighted to partner with Micromax to democratize the 4G smart phones at a never before price of under INR 999." He believes that this will "help fulfill the aspirations of several million phone users across the country that desire a smart phone but couldn't afford one. It will also encourage current non users of 4G to upgrade and enjoy a richer user experience with Vodafone SuperNet 4G."

 

Going by the specs, Bharat 2 Ultra comes with an 4-inch WVGA display and runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow software. This 4G smartphone is powered by quad-core Spreadtrum SC9832 processor clocked at 1.3GHz. The device further comes with 512MB RAM and 4GB of internal storage. In the camera department, the Bharat 2 Ultra comes with a 2-megapixel sensor at the rear panel, while fits an 0.3-megapixel sensor on the front. The phone is backed by a 1300mAh battery set up. 

 

Airtel and Karbonn launches a new 4G smartphone called the Karbonn A40 Indian recently, which also somewhat comes with the similar strategy, apart from the fact that it comes with an effective price of INR 1,399. This was launched to counter Jio's JioPhone which comes in at an effective price tag of INR 'zero'. Customers will actually have to pay INR 2,899, while buying the phone, but Karbonn will refund back INR 1,500. The customer - who buys the A40 Indian will be eligible for the refund only if they make 36 continuous monthly recharges of INR 169 every month. Doing so, the customer will get a cash refund of INR 500 after 18 months and another INR 1,000 in the next 18 months (i.e after 36 months from the purchase date).

 

 

MICROMAX TO FORAY INTO NEW HOME APPLIANCE SEGMENTS

 

16 OCTOBER 2017

 

Micromax will foray into segments such as washing machine, refrigerator and microwave, as it
plans to be a complete consumer electronics maker, a top company official said. The homegrown company is planning to invest up to INR 300 million on manufacturing.

It is also aiming to have 7 to 8 percent market share in the TV panel market this fiscal by selling around eight lakh units. The Gurugram-based firm, which had forayed into the Air conditioning segment last fiscal, will add more models in next season.

 

"In next one year, we will have 70-80 percent of product line up in the CE category. AC, air coolers, Washing machines in next one year," Micromax Informatics Co-Founder Rajesh Agarwal told PTI. "The rest of the products like microwave, refrigerators will need more planning and we plan to introduce those in next two years," he further said.

 

The company is expecting that contribution from consumer electronics segment would go up to 40 per cent in next three years from the present 20-25 percent. "Our estimate is that in the next three years CE (consumer electronics) will contribute about 40 percent to the overall Micromax Revenue," he said, adding "We have already started back-end work on this".

 

The company has presently plants at - Bhiwadi (Rajasthan), Rudrapur (Uttarakhand) and Telangana and have invested about 200-250 crore.

 

"In the next two-three years we will be investing another 200-300 crore for scaling up," he added. "Micromax has the philosophy to grow into a complete CE brand. We have gained a respectable market share with 2 categories - AC and LED TV and in the next one year, our focus will be to strengthen existing categories with more products and market share and further introducing newer categories as well," said Agarwal.

 

Micromax is also encouraged by the sales figure of its TV panels as last month it had sold around one lakh units. "In 2017-18, we plan to sell around 8,00,000 lakh units and we have a market share of 7-8 per cent. Last year we sold about 6.5 lakhs televisions," said Agarwal.

 

According to the Consumer Electronics and Appliances Manufacturers Association, the Indian TV panel market is currently estimated to be around 11 million units per annum.

 

"We believe that Micromax has a huge potential and opportunity. While we have already started backward integration, and our manufacturing has helped, our aim is to also start PCB manufacturing in India for LED TVs," he said.

BSNL WORKING WITH MICROMAX, LAVA TO LAUNCH LOW-COST PHONES, DATA PACKS

 

OCTOBER 6, 2017 

 

State owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) network in a bid to counter Reliance Jio has paired with Indian smartphone manufacturers to build low-cost devices which will be paired with voice and data pack bundle to provide more value. According to PTI report this tie-up, BSNL has tied-up with Micromax Informatics and Lava International to build these handsets.

 

"BSNL has tied up with Micromax and Lava to provide instruments to BSNL customers at low cost. We are coming out with bundled offers on the handsets manufactured by Micromax and Lava with BSNL SIMs...the cost details are being worked out," BSNL's Hyderabad Telecom District (HTD) Principal General Manager K Ramchand told PTI reporters in Hyderabad.

 

According to him, six rural exchanges are commissioned with Wi-Fi in Hyderabad Telecom District and another 112 rural exchanges will be covered by December end this year.

 

The launch of the INR 429 plan led the path to more subscribers in Andhra and Telangana regions. According this new plan from BSNL, the user gets 1GB of data per day for a period of 90 days.

 

A smaller recharge worth INR 249 also offers 1GB per day but at a validity of 28 days. As a part of the offer, the company is also offering unlimited BSNL to BSNL calls.

 

Though BSNL is still operating on 2G and 3G spectrums, the state-owned company is planning to soon launch its 4G services with VoLTE. Also, BSNL is working on 5G speeds to prepare for future competition in the growing segment.

 

Most telecom companies are shifting to a new strategy to acquire more users. After Reliance Jio launched the JioPhone in July this year, other telecom brands are also preparing their arsenal with ultra-cheap smartphones or feature phones that can operate on 4G networks. 

 

Airtel and Idea-Vodafone are also planning to launch their versions of cheap smartphones, which might also run Android applications, unlike Reliance JioPhone.
