Industry Picks
Rural economy, monsoons to boost FMCG companies in 2018 According to a consumer sector report by a leading brokerage house, consumer goods
companies expects to see a revival, both in volume and margin terms in the next 12 months,
with an anticipated revival in the rural sector. With the current populist budget, the rural
sector is anticipated to be prime beneficiary. This, coupled with improving macros and good
monsoon after two consecutive droughts, also augur well.
After four quarters of muted growth, the consumer goods sector is likely to clock high single
to low double-digit volume growth in the October-December quarter of 2017. The sector
revenue growth will revive from the second half of the current financial year. With GST pangs
largely behind, volumes of most companies to clock high single to low double-digit growth.
Prices of raw materials like copra, monomers and menthol, among others, have remained
elevated. Prices of other raw materials like sugar, wheat flour and milk have remained flat to
slightly declining. To offset rising raw material cost, companies have not been able to take
required price hikes, resulting in some gross margin compression. With cost rationalisation,
calibrated EBITDA margin expansion can be expected going forward.
Nearly 52 new beer brands and their variants were introduced in 2017 A new beer brand had hit the India market every week in 2017, despite various challenges in
the previous year such as sales bans, shrinking store networks, and stagnant demand. The
Indian beer market, which is currently pegged INR 460 bn, is expected to reach INR 610 bn by
2020. The largest category is strong beer with current market size c.a. INR 380 bn, followed by
Mild (INR 70 bn) & Craft Beer (INR 10 bn) – these categories are expected to reach INR 480 bn,
INR 90 bn & INR 40 bn for strong, mild and craft respectively.
The top 3 beverages categories in India are soft drinks (INR 540 bn) followed by beer (INR 460
bn) & dairy (INR 300 bn). Promising demographics and increasing affluence have been one of
the key drivers for the growth of beer brands in the country.
As many as 52 new beer brands and their variants were introduced last calendar year, more
than double in 2016 (25 brands introduced), according to data available with The Beer Café.
While the top brewers — Heineken-controlled United Breweries and Carlsberg — introduced
half a dozen new brands, several domestic and imported draft beer brands were introduced,
mostly at pubs and restaurants, to ride on the surge of micro-breweries that rose to more than
80 compared to half a dozen 5 years ago. There are about 142 beer brands in India (2017) –
imported bottled cagtegory has 77 brands, followed by domestic bottled (27 brands), draught
domestic (20 brands) & draught imported (18 brands).
There is a major shift in affection from established products to craft which are more inventive
in nature. Consumers worldwide have taken keen interest in exploring bolder flavours of beer.
Indian diamond manufacturers look to set up cutting, polishing units in Russia India's diamond manufacturers are looking at setting up cutting and polishing units in Russia
for easy access of rough diamonds from Alrosa mines as the central government has yet to
come up with a tax structure to enable the country's diamond trade to directly purchase rough
diamonds from the special notified zone (SNZ) at Mumbai's Bharat Diamond Bourse. KGK
Diamonds has announced setting up of cutting and polishing unit in Vladivostok in Russia –
they will be investing 2.8 bn Russian rubles in the Vladivostok unit. The annual installed
manufacturing capacity of the unit is 150,000 carats of diamonds. Two more other leading
diamond companies including M Suresh & Co are looking at opening units in Russia.
At present, diamond manufacturers can view the diamonds from miners such as Rio Tinto, De
Beers, Alrosa and others at the SNZ and bid but they cannot procure it locally. They have to
buy diamonds from Belgium, Dubai, Singapore and Russia despite successful bidding at the
SNZ. Buying rough diamonds on the spot would bring down the transaction cost.
Russian president Vladimir Putin is inviting diamond trade across the globe to set up units in
his country. India, being the leader in cutting and polishing of diamonds, will find it easier to
procure raw material and cut down transaction cost if it starts operating in Russia.
