MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS
ECONOMY AND MARKETS
While the global economies continued to witness slow growth during the current year as well the Indian economy on a macro basis stayed fairly robust. The below par performance of global economy was reflected in a continued slowdown in growth in most emerging and developing economies driven by weaker capital inflows and a subdued global trade. India however was one of the faster growing large economies in the world with a currency that performed better than most other emerging market currencies.
There was a significant upturn in commodity prices after a year of deflation. Consumer spending remained subdued during the early part of the year impacted by two years of drought. The gradual recovery of the market was temporarily impacted by adverse liquidity conditions post demonetisation and especially in the December quarter. Overall this was a year of moderate growth rates across FMCG categories.
Given the backdrop of slow market growth volatile input cost environment and heightened competitive intensity the operating environment for the Company during the year continued to be challenging.
The Company’s performance for the year 2016-17 has to be viewed in the context of aforesaid economic and market environment.
PERFORMANCE OF
BUSINESSES AND CATEGORIES
The Company delivered yet another year of resilient performance aided by healthy marketing and trade investments exciting innovations and stepped up market development and sharper in-market execution. The Company continued to leverage and benefit from the inputs received from Unilever across various aspects of the business including technology innovation services and marketing mix that enabled the Company to launch several new offerings to serve the needs of consumers.
The year began with a sharp upturn in the commodity cycle with crude and vegetable oil prices rising significantly whilst the market continued to remain volatile. The Company had proactively passed on the benefits of lower commodity costs to the consumers when the commodity prices were deflationary last year. During the year the Company had to take calibrated price increases as commodity prices increased sharply.
To fuel growth the Company continued to deploy effective cost savings programmes. These savings not only aid in deploying investments to build brands and capabilities but also help the Company in delivering its profit objective. During the year an extensive review of the business under the ‘Zero Based Budgeting’ project was conducted and the Company has crafted some well-considered plans to further drive operating efficiencies
in the coming years.
The Company strives to be the supplier of choice across the distribution channels it operates in. During the year the Company continued to focus on quality of distribution in General Trade improving in-store presence in Modern Trade and building capabilities in e-commerce. The Company continued to build upon the ‘Winning in Many India’s’ agenda to benefit from geographical focus while leveraging scale. The Company also continued to focus on magnifying innovations in the marketplace through brilliant execution and on building markets of the future or what they call as ‘market development’. During the year the Company re-organised its business under four major categories i.e. Home Care Personal Care Foods and Refreshments.
The change in the reporting structure is in compliance with the new Indian Accounting Standards (converged IFRS Reporting). Home Care category comprises Fabric Wash Household Care and Water businesses. Personal Care category includes Personal Wash Skin Care Hair Care Oral Care Colour Cosmetics and Deodorants. Foods category includes Packaged Foods and Popular Foods. Refreshments category comprises Tea Coffee Ice cream and Frozen Desserts. The residual segment of Others includes Exports Infant and Feminine care.
HOME CARE
The year witnessed volatile crude oil prices coupled with significant competitive intensity. The Company optimised media and trade spends maintained competitive prices and invested in developing new segments to ensure sustainable growth.
The Fabric Wash business delivered strong topline growth through premiumisation led by Surf. In the emerging segments of Machine Wash Surf excel Matic and Comfort Fabric Conditioner continued to perform well. The Company successfully launched Surf excel Matic liquids during the year. Sunlight soap which has been protecting the colours of the consumers’ clothes for 75 years launched a unique mentorship programme -‘Sunlight Banglar Guner Rang’ to preserve the true colours of Bengal which is its rich culture.
In Household Care Vim continued to develop and premiumise the category through the liquids portfolio. The proposition of ‘power of 100 lemons’ combined with a superior product and great activation helped the product become more appealing and desirable amongst consumers. Domex brought its social mission alive by actively driving awareness about the issue of open defecation in India through the ‘See-Through Toilet Installation’ in Mumbai during the Global Citizen event. The activation provided consumers with first-hand exposure to the difficulties and hardship associated with the practice of open defecation thereby driving the need for improved access to toilets.
Pureit the world’s largest selling water purifier continued to strengthen its position as a responsible and purpose-driven brand. Pureit’s mission is to provide safe drinking water to 100 million people by 2020. By 2016 Pureit provided over 74 billion litres of safe drinking water. Pureit continued to target potential consumers from the bottom of the pyramid and partnered with Micro Finance Institutions (MFIs) to provide them access to safe drinking water through affordable instalments. Pureit expanded its play in the growing branded Reverse Osmosis (RO) segment with a successful launch of Classic RO range of water purifiers. This has democratised the segment by providing consumers a quality range of RO water purifiers at an affordable price.
PERSONAL CARE
The strategic thrusts of Personal Care business include strengthening the core accelerating premiumisation investing in developing segments of the future and building capabilities such as digital and e-commerce for the future. This was achieved through innovations cut-through advertising brand engagement platforms and touching millions of consumers through market development efforts. The Company believes that there is substantial potential that exists in all segments within its Personal Care business. The mission of this business is to inspire a billion Indians to attend better to their personal care.
The year witnessed a significant inflation in key raw material prices for the Personal Wash Category. The Company took calibrated pricing actions to offset the cost increases. The price increases in this category impacted the volumes. The business witnessed muted growth in this category for most part of the year. With steps taken to address some issues around Lux Hamam and Lifebuoy soap brands the growth trend was reversed in the last quarter with the category registering reasonable growth. Lux was supported by a big intervention the ’Lux Golden Rose Awards’ a buzz-creating brand engagement platform. The Company continued to invest behind market development of handwash and bodywash.
Skin Care category grew well on the back of both core as well as premium offerings. Fair & Lovely drove consumption through a focused campaign based on local insights and premium offerings like BB cream. Pond’s sustained its momentum by strengthening its proposition of ‘Spotless Radiance’ while Lakmé continued to lead with innovations like the ‘colour-transform’ cream. The Company continued to lead market development of body lotions with Vaseline through the ‘healing power’ activation of the brand. The Company refreshed the portfolio play in Facial Cleansing across Fair & Lovely Pond’s and Lakmé. Towards the end of the year the Company made a foray into the Baby Care segment with the launch of a range of products under the brand ‘Baby Dove’.
Hair Care sustained its strong performance with all brands growing ahead of the market. Innovations and well-crafted activations have led to a preference for Hair Care brands with Dove Clinic Plus Sunsilk and TRESemmé all doing well.
Oral Care had a subdued performance. Closeup was relaunched with an improved product towards the latter part of the year and the brand continued to build the youth-oriented campaign on making the ‘First Move’. Pepsodent has also been strengthened with an improved flavour and an activation built on the insight of children craving for sweets during festive occasions. The Oral Care category is undergoing a shift in its construct with ‘naturals’ ‘freshness’ and ‘care & problem solution’ segments moving towards equal proportions in the market. This reshaping of the category has created new growth opportunities for the Company especially in the ‘naturals’ segment.
Lakmé Colors continues to drive premiumisation by upgrading users through the long lasting ‘9 to 5’ platform and taking the latest trends from the runway to the consumers under the ‘Absolute’ platform. The brand has continued to pioneer the launch of the best makeup innovations with the launch of Argan Oil variant as well as Enrich Matte Lipsticks which have been well received.
In Deodorants through Axe the Company has further strengthened its position at the premium-end with the launch of fine fragrances under the Signature range while building its current assortment with new variants in the perfume sprays segment.
During the year the Company made its foray into the fast-evolving ‘naturals segment’ by reviving the brand LEVER Ayush and through the acquisition of Indulekha. LEVER Ayush was first launched in the year 2002 both in product and services space. LEVER Ayush has been re-launched with new mixes in select geographies as a master brand across major categories like Skin Cleansing Skin Care Hair Care and Oral Care and promises the 5000 year old wisdom of ayurveda for modern day beauty problems. Indulekha has started off well post acquisition gaining distribution and through improved marketing under the Company. The Company will continue to expand the footprint of this brand. The Company also introduced ‘naturals’ variants in core brands such as Fair & Lovely Ayurveda Clinic Plus Ayurveda and TRESemmé Botanique to ensure the Company builds a comprehensive portfolio at scale in this fast growing segment.
FOODS
The Foods business of the Company comprises culinary products such as jams ketchups and squashes under Kissan; soups soupy noodles meal makers and seasonings under Knorr and staple foods comprising atta and salt under Annapurna. While the Company continued to grow ahead of the markets in most categories the overall growth of the categories and consequently their business slowed down as compared to the previous years.
Kissan maintained its leadership across categories while increasing penetration and reaching more households than ever before. Both ketchup and jam showed strong distribution increase and strengthening of consumer preference. The launch of three exciting new variants of premium jams helped the brand reach new households while contributing to the growth of the jams category.
Knorr brand had a healthy performance with the convenient instant soups ‘single serve’ format performing particularly well. The Company expanded its ‘cook up’ soup offerings with the launch of international flavours in a ‘4 serve’ format. This supported by widespread sampling ensured that the soup category has grown in relevance as a healthy in-between meal option. The Knorr Meal Maker portfolio continued to be led by in-store sampling and activations.
The Company continued its focus on improving the profitability of the Annapurna business by driving efficiencies across the value chain.
The Company also scaled up its experiential marketing initiatives. Given the relevance of market development it is critical that consumers sample the Company’s products and discover the great taste and convenience that the products offer. As an important player in the industry the Company continues to partner with the Regulator towards a more balanced approach to foods regulations which takes care of the consumer’s interest while fostering innovation
REFRESHMENTS
The Refreshments business delivered a good year with both Beverages and the Ice cream & Frozen Desserts portfolio registering healthy growth. Most of the brands continued to grow well and improved their brand equity scores. There were new products and variants launched across categories which were received well by consumers.
The Beverages segment delivered broad based growth across both Tea and Coffee. The growth across key brands was driven by leveraging the ‘Winning in Many India’s’ approach.
Brooke
Bond Red Label walked the talk on its purpose of ‘making the world a more
welcoming place’ by sponsoring India’s first transgender music band – Brooke
Bond Red Label 6-Pack Band. This initiative was lauded as a path-breaking one
and was conferred with several prestigious national and international awards
including a Grand Prix at the Cannes Lions Festival.
Brooke Bond Red Label and 3 Roses Natural Care Tea with its differentiated immunity benefit of using the goodness of Ayurveda ingredients continued to delight consumers. The Company continued to grow the Green Tea category under the brand Lipton on the back of sustained market development.
The Coffee business under the brand BRU delivered strong growth led by the instant coffee franchise. The brand continued its pioneering task of consistently driving penetration of instant coffee through innovative sampling methods and a compelling proposition. The pure coffee franchise of BRU Gold continued to lead category premiumisation.
The Ice cream & Frozen Desserts business continued to deliver strong performance with double-digit growth and improved profitability. During the year there was increased focus on widening distribution and making brands more accessible for consumers. The impulse portfolio continued to grow faster with improved brand equity across Cornetto and Feast. New variants of Cornetto as well as Kulfi performed well in the market.
OUTLOOK
The global economy continues to remain under pressure from the ongoing political policy and economic uncertainties around the world. However it is expected that the global growth should stabilise in future.
The Indian GDP growth rate continues to be one of the fastest growing large economies of the world. Economic growth is expected to further improve on the strengthening consumer sentiment. The medium to long term secular
trends based on urbanisation rising aspirations low level of penetration for most of their categories and improving consumption levels are positive forthe FMCG sector. The Company with its brands talent and investment in capabilities is well placed to leverage this opportunity.
The enactment of the GST legislation has been a milestone reform that will create a win-win environment for all stakeholders and heralds an integrated and productive economy and is expected to further boost economic growth. However there could be temporary transition challenges during the cut-over.
SCHEME OF ARRANGEMENT
Subsequent to the approval of the shareholders at the Court Convened Meeting held on 30th June 2016 to the Scheme of Arrangement for transfer of the balance of ` 2187 crores standing to the credit of the General Reserves to the Profit and Loss Account the Company had filed the petition for sanction of the Scheme of Arrangement with the Hon’ble High Court of Mumbai. Upon the Scheme becoming effective the amount so transferred is proposed to be distributed to the shareholders from time to time by the Board of Directors at its sole discretion in such manner quantum and at such time as the Board of Directors may decide.
Consequent to the notification of certain pending sections of Companies Act 2013 including sections related to the Compromise and Arrangements and National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) the jurisdiction for sanctioning the Scheme of Arrangement has been transferred to the NCLT from High Court of Mumbai. The Scheme is currently pending with NCLT for sanction.

PRESS RELEASE
HUL SEEKS NCLT NOD TO
TRANSFER INR 2100.000 MILLION TO P&L ACCOUNT
Mar 16 2018
Mumbai Hindustan Unilever Ltd (HUL) has approached the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) to seek approval for a plan to transfer more than INR 21000.000 million from general reserve to profit and loss (P&L) account, said two people familiar with the development.
The maker of consumer staples such as Surf Excel detergent powder and Dove soap, decided to transfer Rs2,187.33 crore from its general reserve to its P&L account in January 2016. Shareholders approved the move in a court-convened meeting in June 2016.
However, the plan is stuck as the regional director of the ministry of corporate affairs, as well as the Registrar of Companies, whose permissions are required to transfer the funds into the P&L account, are yet to clear it. To enable the transfer, the company has approached the tribunal to seek its approval.
“Both RD and RoC have submitted their separate replies in the scheme matter filed by the Hindustan Unilever,” one of the people cited above said, requesting anonymity. “We are waiting for the hearing and it’s for the tribunal to decide whether to approve the company scheme or not.”
A spokesperson for Hindustan Unilever confirmed that it has approached the tribunal. “The scheme is currently pending for sanction by the NCLT. Since the matter is pending with the tribunal, we will be unable to comment on the merits of the matter,” the spokesperson added.
The company, in a written response to Mint’s queries, further said that after the implementation of the scheme, the money will be returned to shareholders. “The company has built up significant reserves over the years through the transfer of profits to the general reserves pursuant to the provisions of the erstwhile Companies Act, 1956,” the spokesperson said.
“Given HUL’s strong financial position and track record of cash generation, the funds represented by such accumulated general reserves is seen to be in excess of the company’s current and anticipated needs,” the spokesperson said.
“In view of this and to uphold good corporate governance, HUL had proposed a scheme between the company and its shareholders to give effect to the proposed transfer and its subsequent payout. The scheme, besides being shareholder friendly, will also drive the efficiency of the company’s balance sheet,” the spokesperson added.
Emailed queries to the ministry of corporate affairs, its regional director for the western region and the Registrar of Companies remained unanswered till press time.
Paras Savla, a partner at audit and consulting firm KPB and Associates, said that unlike under the old Companies Act, it is not mandatory for the company to transfer part of the profits to the general reserves prior to the declaration of dividend under the Companies Act of 2013. Hence it seems that there is no need to maintain the general reserve for the purpose of dividend distribution.
Hindustan Unilever reported a net profit of INR 44900.000 million on a revenue of INR 344870.000 million in the year ended 31 March 2017.
