EDITORIAL

FOR corporate India, financial year 2008-09 was like a trial by fire. The global credit freeze in September 2008 and the negative GDP growth across the

developed world proved a great challenge. All past assumptions in the market placeturned on their head. Indian companies, by and large, met the challenge of globalheadwinds with a resoluteness not seen before. At the end of it all, India Inc seemedto have passed the test by not only staying afloat but also by growing their top linesimpressively. The leading FE 500 companies’ list, ranked mainly by sales growth,shows that the toplines grew at a relatively high pace of 19.35% even thoughprofitability declined across the board. However, bigger companies used their sheerscale to some advantage and managed to preserve bottomline growth too. We now feeldoubly vindicated that our methodology in ranking the top 500 companies waschanged some years ago, giving maximum weight to topline growth andsubstantially reducing the weightage accorded to market capitalisation. This mayhave stood us in good stead because in 2008-09 the stocks of most FE 500 rankers hadcrashed dramatically only to quickly recover within months after March 2009. Somarket cap becomes a somewhat fickle indicator, especially when global financeitself is going through a prolonged phase of volatility.

We are convinced that topline growth will truly reflect the aspirations andperformance of Indian entrepreneurs who are currently in the process of growingtheir companies to global scale. Indeed, it is corporate India’s topline growth over theyears that would truly measure the gradual shift of economic power towards India inparticular and Asia in general. In this context, it is interesting to note that the top 15among the FE 500 companies profiled this year will have two new entrants — TCS andTata Motors — both of which are poised to build global scale in the next 5-10 years.Among the top 15 rankers by sales, profitability, asset size and market cap are IOC,RIL, ONGC, SAIL, Bharti Airtel, Tata Steel and RCOM. This year we also decided toplot the ten-year topline growth trend for the leading 100 among the FE 500 to give anidea of how these companies have fared over the past decade. The result was quiteinteresting: the top 100 companies have shown nearly 18% compounded annualgrowth in sales over the last decade. This means these companies have more thandoubled in size every five years. If the trend continues for another two decades,India may well dominate the list of global MNCs.

AFTER a dull performance in2007-08, the Indian corporatesector showed some bright mo-

ment in their top line performance dur-ing 2008-09.

Sales of FE 500 were pitched high.Speeding ahead at a rate of 19.35%, theFE 500’s net sales reached the high of Rs23.14 lakh crore. Though, in compari-son with 2007-08, the sales growth wasslightly high. The FE 500’s sales growthwas 17.69% in the year 2007-08.

The increase in the cost of raw mate-rials and energy, however, presentedsome hurdles in their profit growth.

The top ten, in terms of compositeranks, seemed slightly slower than theFE 500 as a whole. Their sales growth,at 14.63%, was actually slightly lowerthan the FE 500, which recorded a col-lective growth of 19.35%. In absoluteterms also, the top ten ended 2008-09with a lower record: their aggregatesales as a percentage of the total FE 500actually saw a marginal decreasefrom 30.93% in the year before to29.71% in 2008-09.

Barring BPCL, all the other ninewho graced the super league in 2007-08,also showed up in the same starryleague the next year. BPCL, the toptenner of 2007-08, was edged out bythe Larsen & Toubro in 2008-09.

In 2008-09, at the top spot wasReliance Industries. In the slot justbehind it was stable mate ONGC;thethird runner-up was NTPC. And thefourth runner-up was Indian OilCorp. The other six top tenners, indescending order of their compos-ite ranks were SAIL, Bharti Airtel,Tata Steel, Bhel, Larsen & Toubroand Reliance Communications.Within the top ten group, some shifting of positions had takenplace. Thus, SAIL, sixth in 2007-08,moved up to the fifth position and

Bharti Airtel lost the position from fifthto the sixth. Tata Steel, Bhel and Larsen& Toubro moved up from 8th to 7th, 9thto 8th and 11th to 9th respectively.Reliance Communications lost groundand declined, from the 7th to the 10th.

The FE 500 have been clubbed intofive groups-the first 100, the second 100,the third 100, fourth 100 and the restwere neck to neck. So, the comparisons,if any, have to be made within the FE-500. As against an overall sales growthrate of 19.35% for the 500 as a group, thesub-groups of 100 each recordedgrowth rates of 19.18, 22.88, 17.88, 17.30and 15.93% respectively during 2008-09.

The top 100 group (according to com-posite rankings) saw five new compa-nies making an entry in 2008-09. Thehighest rate of rise in net sales in thefirst set was recorded by Lanco Infra-tech (190.68%), Coromandel Interna-tional (149.32%), Tata Chemicals(107.18%), Ambuja Cements (65.65%),United Phosphorus (62.53%) and RCF(62.20%). The laggards in the top 100

were DLF (-48.89%), Unitech (-34.67%),Hindustan Zinc (-27.95%), Housing De-velopment & Infrastructure (-27.76%),Ashok Leyland (-22.80%),Indian Hotels(-13.06%) and Tata Motors (-10.77%).

Some eight companies in the firstgroup of 100 recorded more than 50%increase in net sales in 2008-09. The sec-ond set of 100 companies grew at 22.88%,higher than the FE 500’s average. Theircombined net sales increased from Rs2.32 lakh crore (on an annualised basis)in 2007-08 to Rs 2.85 lakh crore in 2008-09.The second set saw many changes, butthe more noteworthy among them werethe 16 new entrants from the lower ranksin 2008-09. The highest rate of rise in netsales was recorded by Shree RenukaSugars (148.30%), followed by ZuariIndustries (132.65%) and EngineersIndia (112.09%).

Among the poor performers in thisgroup was Parsvnath Developers (-57.5%). Compared to the first two, thethird group of 100 companies did notperform well in terms of net sales

growth. Aggregate net sales of theset increased by 17.88% from Rs 1.20lakh crore in 2007-08 to Rs 1.41 lakhcrore in 2008-09. In terms of individ-ual performance, 14 companiesrecorded declines in the third set. Ofthem, Omaxe recorded the highest (-60.90%), followed by Lakshmi Ma-chine Works (-39.28%), Amtek India(-26.20%) and Ansal Properties &Infrastructure (-22.0%). KingfisherAirlines (174.17%), Fertilisers &Chemicals Travancore (143.56%),Rain Commodities (80.39%), Icsa(64.07%), Peninsula Land (56.88%),AIA Engineering (55.51%) andBinani Cement (55.40%) wereamong those registering significantsales growth.

There were 23 new members inthe set in 2008-09. Not all the newmembers, however have cause forjubilation. As many as 11 of them

are rejects from the second set, includ-ing such big names like Ballarpur In-dustries, Castrol India, Omaxe, VarunShipping Company and ITI.

Twelve others, which were in fourthset in 2007-08, entered the third set of companies in 2008-09. Mention maybe made of Bharati Shipyard, Jai NecoIndustries,Rain Commodities,AIA En-gineering, Madhucon Projects, BajajElectricals, Balkrishna Industries, andAmara Raja Batteries.

The fourth set of 100 companiesregistered the lowest growth insales compared to the first, secondand third set, indicating that at thebottom of the corporate heap thereis a lack of enterprise. The fourthgroup of companies grew at 17.30%,and their combined net salesincreased from Rs 87,518 crore (onan annualised basis) in 2007-08 to Rs1.02 lakh crore in 2008-09. The high-est rate of rise in net sales wasrecorded by Sujana Metal Products(101.58%), followed by Jindal Dril-ling & Industries (88.45%), UshdevInternational (83.62%), Dish TV In-dia (78.48%), McNally Bharat Engg(77.47%), Aarti Industries (60.02%)and Visa Steel (54.53%). The mostinteresting part of FE 500 is the salesgrowth of fifth set of 100 companies.The fifth group of companies grewat 15.93%, which is lower than first,

second, third and fourth hundredgroups and their combined net salesincreased from Rs 62,428 crore in 2007-08 to Rs 72,373 crore in 2008-09.

Looking at the FE 500 on a whole, itis obvious that individual performancewas substantially determined by thefortunes of the industry in which theyoperated. The fastest growing indus-tries in 2008-09 were fertilizers, chlor-alkali/soda ash, cement products, shipbreaking and repairing, computer

software-converts, transport-airlines/travel agencies, construction, sugar,pesticides/agrichemical-Indian andsteel-sponge iron. The slowest growingindustries were pharmaceuticals-multinational, mining/minerals/met-als, steel-pig iron, domestic appliances,auto ancillaries, electrodes-graphites,automobiles-motor cycles/ mopeds,electronics- components, bearings andcastings and forgings.

Given the perky overall growth rateof 19.35% for the FE 500, assetgrowth was significantly higherthan the sales growth. The com-bined total assets of the FE 500(according to sales) rose by 24.28%from Rs 22.09 lakh crore in 2007-08 toRs 27.46 lakh crore in 2008-09.

While building assets, the FE 500took a beating on the profitabilityfront. Gross profits decreased mar-ginally during the study period. Thetotal gross profits of the FE 500decreased from Rs 3.41 lakh crore(on an annualised basis) in 2007-08 toRs 3.17 lakh crore in 2008-09, a 7.11%decline. The top 10 of the FE 500accounted for a major share of thebooty (Rs 1.27 lakh crore), leaving Rs1.90 lakh crore to be divided upamong the remaining 490.

ONGC, the number one profit-maker of the year, notched up grossprofits of Rs 36,419 crore, a 2.93%

The other nine companiesin the top 10 list in terms of gross prof-its were Reliance Industries (Rs 23,571crore), NTPC (Rs 13,548 crore), BhartiAirtel (Rs 11,471 crore), SAIL (Rs 10,692crore), Tata Steel (Rs 8,273 crore),Infosys Technologies (Rs 7,408 crore),Indian Oil (Rs 7,166 crore), RelianceCommunications (Rs 6,736 crore) andTCS (Rs 5,957 crore).

Reliance Industries topped in termsof net worth during 2008-09. The net-worth grew to Rs 1.26 lakh crore, a58.34% rise from Rs 79,766 crore inthe previous year. The other compa-nies in the Top 10 list in terms of networth were ONGC (Rs 78,735 crore),NTPC (Rs 57,370 crore), RelianceCommunications (Rs 51,690 crore),Indian Oil (Rs 43,976 crore), TataSteel (Rs 29,704 crore), SAIL (Rs27,984 crore), Bharti Airtel (Rs27,643 crore), Hindalco (Rs 23,758crore) and Infosys Technologies (Rs17,809 crore).

The aggregate net worth of theFE 500 increased by 20.46% from Rs10.21 lakh crore in 2007-08 to Rs 12.30lakh crore in 2008-09. Eight compa-nies, namely Kingfisher Airlines,Tata Teleservices (Maha), ITI, SpiceCommunications, Dish TV, LloydSteel Indus- tries, Spice Jet andBalaji Distilleries had a negative net

worth in absolute terms.As for market capitalisation, per-

formance was good, the aggregate market capitalisation of the FE 500 corporates increased by 103.9% from Rs 21.92 lakh crore as on January 29,2009 to Rs 44.71 lakh crore as on January29,2010. The highest increase in marketcapitalisation among the FE 500 com-panies was witnessed in the case ofPiramal Glass (756.70%), McNallyBharat Engg Co (648.74%), Sterlite Tec-

hnologies (584.68%), Hindustan Cop-per (571.12%), Tata Motors (514.69%),Micro Inks (491.73%), MadhuconProjects (474.51%), Unity Infra Projects(470.98%), Alok Industries (436.34%)and Century Enka (426.72%).

AMONGST the various achieve-ments of the Indian corporate jug-gernaut, execution clearly stands

off as the best.Within years,the companyhas built the largest refining capacity atany single location. It is also the largestproducer of Polyester Fibre and Yarn andhas ranks amongst the top in the world inmany other operational aspects.

In the year 2008-09 saw the commer-cialisation of two initiatives. The newpetroleum refinery at Jamnagar and thedeep-sea oil and gas production system inthe Bay of Bengal, were the two.

According to Mukesh Ambani, chair-man Reliance Industries (RIL), “A globaltransformation initiative to leverageReliance’s financial and technical skills,open new vistas for our enterprise and forour energetic talent to create new valueglobally, as the world resets to a new fun-damental economic reality.”

However, financial year 2008-09 wasalso a tough one for the company as oilprices slumped and so did gross refiningmargins.And while net revenues grew by6.2%, over the previous year, to touch Rs 146,328 crore operating profitremained stagnant at Rs 25,374 crore andthe net profit declined by 21% to touch Rs 15,309 crore. And since ReliancePetroleum was amalgamated with RIL,these numbers might not be exactly com-parable. However, despite this the com-pany had a highest ever dividend outflowof Rs 1,897 crore and maintained a returnon capital employed of over 20%.

Speaking about the turmoil, Ambanisaid, “Export markets for petroleumproducts, petrochemicals and polyesterwere impacted.In such a milieu,Relianceproactively addressed these challengesand took several decisive actions to keepahead of the curve.”

These actions include conserving andre-deploying capital to petroleum refin-ing and oil and gas projects for early com-pletion of projects. Prioritising expen-diture to operationally critical areas andcontrolling working capital, particularlyon inventories and receivables.

And above all, concentrating on flaw-less execution and commissioning of theoil and gas and petroleum refining pro-jects. “Execution, as they say, is the test of intent.Reliance learnt this dictumfrom its very inception. Not only hasReliance become world-class over theyears in project execution, but it has alsobeen constantly raising the bar for itself,”says Ambani.

“We invested for growth when mostmajor global companies were reducingcapital expenditure,” he adds. In a diffi-cult times, Reliance spent close to Rs 24,713 crore on capital expenditure.With a current cash balance of nearly Rs 19,421 crore, Reliance is among thefinancially strongest companies inemerging markets. Net debt is now at lessthan 21 months of cash flow.

In the quarter ended December 2009,the company has reported revenuesworth Rs 58,848, up 92.7% over the sameperiod of the previous year . For the sameperiod, operating profit grew by 38.5% totouch Rs 8,351 crore and net profit by15.8% at Rs 4,008 crore.

Reliance is the largest polyester pro-ducer in the world, with a manufacturingcapacity of 2.5 million tonnes per annum.This has been strengthened with the com-missioning of the 900,000 tonnes per yearpolypropylene plant at Jamnagar makesit the fourth largest polypropylene pro-ducer in the world. The gas productionlevels have crossed six billion cubicmetres and the field is slated for plateauproduction by the second half of the year2010. 200 days of gas production has beencompleted with 100% uptime. Oil produc-tion from the D26 field has 2.8 million bar-rels with daily peak production expectedby the end of the year.

Today, the Reliance Retail initiativeserves over five million loyal customersin 86 cities and 14 states. This is donethrough nearly 1,000 stores. And despitescaling down of plans the management isconfident to deliver on the promise ofdeveloping an ecosystem capable ofenhancing shareholder wealth and alsoprosperity for marginal farmers, smalltransporters and vendors.

INDIA’S largest upstream hydro-carbon player ONGC is diversifyinginto downstream business like refin-

ing and petrochemicals as also intopower generation to become a fully inte-grated energy company.

ONGC produced 52.45 million tonnesof oil and oil equivalent (mtoe) in the pastfinancial year. The company is expectedto benefit from rising internationalcrude oil prices.However, it is required toshare public sector oil marketing compa-nies (OMCs) under-recoveries from thebelow cost sale of petrol and diesel,whichposes a downside risk to the company’sprofitability.

According to chairman RS Sharma,“Sustaining supplies remains the firstpriority for the industry; not only fromthe present assets, but even from all theplays which attracted attention in high-price regime like, deepwater, ultra-deep-water and oil sands.”

“Commitment, investment and tech-nology will play a major role in tappingthis large pool of located and yet-to-be-discovered resources or from new andalternate sources of energy.Industry willhave to eschew volatility which requiresparadigm shift in policy framework; notonly from producers and consumers buteven at the commodity exchanges,”Sharma added. In the financial year 2008-09, ONGC’s in-place hydrocarbonvolume was estimated at 284.81 mtoewhile its ultimate reserves stood at 68.90mtoe. The company’s total reserves were1,593.53 mtoe as April 1, 2009.

Sharma mentions, “The second stra-tegic pursuit for ONGC has been ‘improv-ing recovery factor’. It has systematicallybeen implementing Improved Oil Re-covery (IOR) and Enhanced Oil Recovery(EOR) projects in 15 major fields since2001.” The IOR/EOR schemes helped inimproving recovery factor of fifteenmajor fields from 27.5% in 2000-01 to 33.1%in 2008-09.At the same time,these schemesalong with other measures helped inarresting natural decline in these maturefields (of 25-30 years vintage) and in main-

taining production levels.The company reported a 23.4% rise in

its net profit for the third quarter of thecurrent financial year because offavourable factors like higher price reali-sation from its crude sale and a lower sub-sidy burden.But ONGC might have to forkout a higher amount a higher amount inthe last quarter to cover the shortfall ofthe third quarter. The company’s netprofit in the latest quarter is Rs 3,054 crorecompared with Rs 2,475 crore in the corre-sponding period of the previous fiscal.The company reported a turnover of Rs15,337 crore compared with Rs 10,865crore for the same period last year.

The average price for crude oil sold bythe company during October-December2009 stood at Rs $76.66 a barrel as against$58.87 a barrel in the correspondingperiod of the previous fiscal. The com-pany paid price discount of $18.97 a bar-rel, compared with $ 25.03 a barrel in thesame quarter of the previous year. Thecompany paid out Rs 3,497 crore in pricediscount on crude sale to the public sectoroil marketing companies toward sharingtheir under-recoveries on sale of petroland diesel for the third quarter.

ONGC made seven new discoveriesduring the latest quarter and two more inJanuary 2010. ONGC Videsh (OVL),ONGC’s subsidiary for acquiring oil andgas assets abroad, has participatinginterests in 39 blocks spread across 15countries.

Of these, 23 are under exploration, 6under development and the rest are inproduction. OVL, in association withHinduja Group and Petronet LNG,recently entered into two broad enablingagreements with Iranian authorities onfor participation in development of gasfields and liquification facilities in Iran,in return for assured minimum 6 milliontonne LNG per annum (mmtpa) on longterm basis.

Managalore Refinery and Petroche-micals Ltd (MRPL), ONGC’s subsidiaryfor refining business, achieved 130%throughput in the past fiscal.ONGC is set-ting a petrochemical complex in Dahej,Gujarat under the joint venture route.

WITH the Union power ministryenvisaging an ambitious capac-ity addition programme under

the 11th and 12th Plan to overcome thecountry’s growing power shortage,India’s largest generator NTPC is set togain in a big way. The company isexpected to increase its market sharefrom 19% to 21% by 2014. The company’srecent further public offer (FPO) wasoversubscribed by 1.2 times. The govern-ment has further diluted its stake inNTPC by 5% to 84.5% through the FPO.

NTPC will be required to compete for power projects under tariff biddingroute post Jan 2011. The company is utilising the interim to secure invest-ment approvals for as many projects as possible.

NTPC plans to foray into nuclearpower generation business in partner-ship with Nuclear Power Corporation(NPCIL). The two companies have signeda memorandum of understanding(MoU). The planned joint venture isexpected to take off by March.

According to RS Sharma, chairman & managing director NTPC, “Ultimately,all our efforts are geared towards maximising shareholders’ wealth in line with the best corporate governancepractices, including sensitivity to theenvironment and the society. Opti-misation of cost should be integral to our working.”

The company is expected to gain fromits backward integration moves to securefuel supplies for its power plants. Thecompany is mining coal and exploring oiland gas blocks. Apart from tappingopportunities in India, NTPC is alsohunting for acquisition of oil and gasassets abroad.

Meanwhile, the thermal power gener-ator is also trying to reduce its depen-dence on fossil fuels by diversifying intonon-conventional energy areas likehydro, nuclear and generation fromrenewable sources such as wind, solar,geo-thermal and biomass. That will alsohelp the company to reduce its fast-

expanding carbon footprint.As of now, NTPC has an installed

power generation capacity of 30,644 mw,about 82% of which is fired by coal andthe rest by gas. The company has nohydropower generation capacity. But ithas taken up three hydropower projectsof about 2,000-mw capacity for imple-mentation under the Eleventh plan, evenas it is adding about 2,500-mw capacitybased on natural gas.

The utility expects to reduce the shareof coal-fired power generation in itscapacity mix to 80% from the existing82%. By 2017, the company expects tobring down the share of coal-fired gener-ation capacity to 70%. It has targeted toraise the hydropower share to 12% byadding 9,000-mw capacity during thesame period. Besides, it has also envis-aged adding 2,000 mw in nuclear powergeneration and 1,000-mw capacity fromrenewable sources like wind, solar andgeothermal.

The company’s current debt to equityratio is 0.60. “The low gearing ratioensures favoured borrower status forNTPC among the lenders. The robustdebt service coverage ratio of 3.67 andinterest service coverage ratio of 10.19also helps it in resource mobilization,”says Sharma.

NTPC is not only adding capacity butalso running its existing power plantsefficiently. The plant load factor (PLF) ofNTPC’s power plants worked out to 91.1%in 2008-09, compared with the Indianaverage of 77.2%. What is more, the com-pany achieved this without compromis-ing on the scheduled maintenance of itspower plants.

India’s electricity demand has out-paced supply in recent years. Seriousconstraints in getting timely delivery of equipment from suppliers often lead to delays in the commissioningschedule of power projects. That, in turn,adversely affects profitability of the projects. To overcome equipment short-age for its power plants, NTPC hasdecided to develop manufacturing facility for power equipment in collabo-ration with Bhel.

INDIA’S largest public sector petro-leum refiner Indian Oil Corporation(IOC) is diversifying fast to become an

integrated energy company. IOC hasentered the upstream oil and gas explo-ration business even as it is trading innatural gas. IOC is also raising its pres-ence in the petrochemicals business.Meanwhile, the company also plans toforay into nuclear power generation busi-ness in partnership with Nuclear PowerCorporation (NCPIL).

The two sides have already signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) in this regard. IOC plans to investRs 14,000 crore every year to grow. Thecompany celebrated its Golden Jubileeyear in 2009.

“During these five decades, IOC hasgrown to emerge as the country’s largestcommercial enterprise and India’s high-est ranked company in the prestigiousFortune Global 500’ listing, at 105th position,” mentioned Sarthak Behuria,chairman, IOC.

The company has kept ready warchest of $ 1 billion to finance acquisitionof oil and gas assets abroad. Acquiringoil equity abroad makes sense for IOC asit would help the company to hedge itscrude oil purchase cost in the face ofvolatility in the world oil market. Thecompany imports more than 50 milliontonnes of crude oil a year for its refineries.

During the year, IOC maintained itsdominance in the market place andclocked the highest ever sales of over 66million tonnes of petroleum products,registering a growth of 5.67% over theprevious year, added Behuria.

IOC is very bullish on petrochemicalsbusiness.The company has been success-fully marketing Linear Alkyl Benzene(LAB) manufactured in its Gujarat refinery, in the domestic as well as over-seas market. Now it plans to raise its profile in the sector.

The company plans to use surplusnaphtha from its refineries as feedstockfor the petrochemicals business. With

power and fertilizer sectors graduallyshifting to natural gas, IOC will havemore and more surplus naphtha from itsrefineries in coming years. Meanwhile,itis a setting up a 15 million tonnes perannum (mmtpa) petrochemical complexat Paradeep, Orissa.

IOC would benefit if the governmentimplements the recommendations of theKirit Parikh committee on petroleumpricing. The committee has suggestedmaintaining the current methodology ofcalculating OMCs’ under-recoveries onretail sale of household LPG and PDSkerosene on the import parity basis. Thatmeans the OMCs will continue to enjoythe possibility of reaping windfall gainsin international as prices of these prod-ucts rise proportionately more thancrude oil prices.

The committee has also recom-mended that the government shouldreimburse the OMCs’ under-recoveriesin cash and not through issuance of oilbonds. The government has decided tocompensate the OMCs’ under-recoveriesfrom the current fiscal in cash

Behuria mentioned in his speech,“For downstream oil companies like IOC,managing the day-to-day operations in anenvironment of high volatility in crudeoil prices was a daunting task. During2008-09 in particular, the peaking ofcrude oil prices and the sudden switch toa low-price regime dramatically affectedthe economics of the industry across thevalue chain.”

Company’s net profit for the period ofnine months ended December 2009 wasRs 4,664 crore as against loss of Rs 3,673crore for the same period last year. Thegross turnover was lower by 12.13 % to Rs 1,99,207 crore during the periodApril–December 2009 from Rs 2,26,717crore for the corresponding period of theprevious year. The company sold 52.19million tonnes of products, includingexports, during the nine-month periodending December 2009. The throughputof its refineries and pipelines networkwas 37.412 million tonnes and 47.516 mil-lion tonnes respectively for the nine-month period.

STEELAuthority of India Ltd (SAIL)is the largest steel producing com-pany in the country and the 17th

largest in the world with a turnover ofover Rs 32,000 crore. At present, the com-pany’s market share in the domestic mar-ket is about 30% and it plans to grow by70-75% by the end of this year by mainlyimproving its capacity utilisation.

Modernisation and expansion plansat its five integrated plants at Burnpur,Bokaro, Bhilai, Durgapur and Rourkelahave been approved by the board involv-ing a capital expenditure of about Rs40,000 crore spread till 2010. By then, itsoutput would increase from 14.5 milliontonnes at present to 25 million tonnes.

For the first nine months (April-December) of the financial year 2009-10the company’s net profit stood at Rs4,669.5 crore – almost at par, 0.4% lowerthan the corresponding period of lastyear. Profit before tax for the period stoodat Rs 7,065.2 crore, lower by 0.7% than thecorresponding period of last year. Inspite of sales growth by 14% in volumeterms during April-December 2009, netturnover at Rs 28,596 crore was lower byabout 9% as compared to the same periodlast year, primarily on account of lowerrealisations.

SAIL chairman S K Roongta said,“We remained focused on our fundamen-tals during the recent downturn andthrough relentless pursuit by the SAILcollective, significant successes cameour way. SAIL is gearing itself up to facethe impending challenges relating toinputs and other cost increases, intensi-fying competition and those relating toraw material security, while making best efforts to seize the immediate opportunities, with increased demandfor steel in the country”.

For the quarter ended December 2009SAIL posted a net profit of Rs 1,675.55crore, an improvement of 99% over thecorresponding period last year. The com-pany also paid an interim dividend at16% of its paid-up capital, amounting toRs 660 crore as against 13% interim

dividend paid last year.Under the company’s modernisation

and expansion schemes, capital expendi-ture at Rs 2,793 crore in the December 2009quarter was nearly 114% higher than Rs1,306 crore in the same period last year.During April-December of 2009-10, ittouched Rs 7,713 crore —over 138% that ofcorresponding period last year (Rs 3,231crore). Modernisation and expansionprojects at Salem Steel Plant whichinvolve installation of new steel makingfacilities and a new cold rolling mill arenearing completion.

The company’s net turnover duringthe quarter ended December 2009 at Rs9,697 crore as compared to Rs 8724 crore(year-on-year) has been 11% higher. Involume terms, sales at 2.9 million tonneduring the quarter were 24.5% higherthan same period of the previous year.The lower growth in turnover as com-pared to volume growth was primarilydue to 12% lower sales realisation duringthe same period of the previous year.

Apart from lower cost of importedcoal and growth in sales, increase in pro-duction of value-added steel by 25%,improved techno-economic parametersand several cost efficiency measures,helped doubling of profits.

Bharat Refractories Limited wasmerged with SAIL in July 2009 andrenamed as SAIL Refractory Unit (SRU).Better management of facilities of theunit led to substantial increase of 21% inproduction during the quarter.

Towards raw material security withrespect to iron ore, significant progresshas been made during December 2009quarter. For Rowghat mine at Chhattis-garh, after the statutory clearances, alease deed agreement was signed onOctober 21, 2009, an issue which had beenpending for more than two decades. Thiswill provide iron ore security to BhilaiSteel Plant for around the next 30 years.Regarding Chiria/Gua mines, during the December 2009 quarter, Jharkhandgovernment recommended the forestclearance proposal of Budhaburu lease,which has a reserve of about 810 milliontonne of iron ore.

“Tata Steel has takenaggressive steps tomeet the challenges of these difficult timesthrough cost reduction,process improvementand production rationalisation.” RATAN TATAChairman, Tata Group

Tata Steel� COMPOSITE RANK 7

� STEEL-LARGE RANK 2FE Bureau

IN the steel industry, when the pricingcycle turns, operators have to go in foraggressive cost cutting and rationali-

sation of processes to overcome the prof-itability issue. Tata Steel, with its strongexpertise of over 100 years was able toovercome the strife and come outunscathed.

The effects of the world economicdownturn seriously impacted the com-pany’s global operations in the secondhalf of the year under review. Thedemand for steel declined by 26% in theUK and Europe in the third quarter com-pared to a year earlier and after a furthercontraction in the fourth quarter,demand had fallen by 57% in the UK and44% in Europe compared with a year ago.

Its standalone revenues however grewmarginally by 2% in the financial year2008-09,over the previous year,to touch Rs20,024 crore from Rs 19,480 crore. Its netearnings also managed to show a positivetrend of 3.5% year on year growth to touchRs 7,315.61 crore in 2008-09. However, mar-gins declined from 41.93% to 38.83% in2008-09, while the return on equity was at18.33% as against 20.53% in the previousyear. Things could have been worse butsteps to ensure that they were not.According to Ratan Tata, chairman TataSteel, “Tata Steel has taken aggressivesteps to meet the challenges of these diffi-cult times through major initiatives incost reduction, process improvement andproduction rationalisation.”

“The highest priority is being given toexpanding steel producing capacity inJamshedpur, and ensuring raw materialsecurity for the European operationswhich do not have captive iron-ore andcoal resources”, he added. Productionrationalisation is also being undertakenin Europe and the UK to right-size manu-facturing facilities to be in sync with thelower off-take by the market. The sameapproach is also being taken in the com-pany’s Asian subsidiaries.

Inventories were liquidated to releasecash. Steel stock was brought down to 28days by the end of March 2009 as against

71 days at the end of December 2008.Thecompany bettered the specific energyconsumption record set last year byachieving a new record of 6.594 GCal pertonne of crude steel in 2008-2009. Anacross-the-board cost-cutting initiativetargeted and achieved 15% reduction ingeneral administrative expenses.

In the 2008-09, the company commis-sioned the 1.8 million tonnes of crudesteel making capacity at Jamshedpurwhich will be further augmented by 3 mil-lion tonnes through ongoing brownfieldexpansion by 2011. This will increase theJamshedpur plant’s crude steel makingcapacity from 6.8 mtpa to 9.7 mtpa, at anestimated cost of Rs 13,900 crore.

This will also enable Tata Steel tostrengthen its market share in the flat pro-ducts segment and simultaneously re-duce operating costs over a large volumeof production. Raw material self-suffi-ciency for the consolidated entity is at 25%post the Corus acquisition. The manage-ment intends to increase self-sufficiencyof raw materials to 50% in the medium tolong term and has been actively looking atacquiring mines overseas. It has alreadyacquired mines in Indonesia.

And, with the revival in the steel cycleas the global demand uptick, revenues inthe quarter ended December 2009 havegrown at a rapid clip with steel salesgrowing at 48.9%, over the same period of the previous year, to touch 1.59 milliontonnes and net sales grew at 39% to touch Rs 6,307 crore. Buoyed by the otherincome factor net earnings more thandoubled, and stood at Rs1,742 crore, forthe quarter ended December 2009.

Amongst the new initiatives, the com-pany would be looking at rationalisingthe Corus operations and also creatingmarketing alliances. The Tata SteelBoard has approved a framework for ajoint venture between the company andand Nippon Steel Corporation (NSC) forthe production and sales of automotivecold-rolled flat products at Jamshedpur.

Clearly, the management seems to beworking on getting its near term focus onthe implementation of the “Fit forFuture” initiative.

PUBLIC sector power equipmentsupplier Bhel continues to domi-nate the Indian market even as it is

expanding its operations abroad. Thecompany is set to augment its manufac-turing capacity from the existing 10,000mw level to 15,000 mw by the end of thecurrent fiscal.

The company hopes to benefit fromtender issued by NTPC and DamodarValley Corporation (DVC) for bulk pro-curement fo supercritical units for theirenvisaged Twelfth plan projects. “Bhelhas a natural advantage over the com-petitors, being in existance for last 40-45years that is one point. The next point isthat Bhel’s product profile if you look at,the entire chain of equipments, ourpower plants are made in Bhel in variousunits and number of technologies havebeen implemented by this company” saidB Prasada Rao, chairman and managingdirector of Bhel.

Meanwhile, the company had bookedorders worth Rs 36,000 crore upto thethird quarter against its Rs 55,000 croretarget for the current financial year. Ofthis, orders worth Rs 16,000 crore came inthe third quarter. The company’s totalorder books stood at Rs 1,34,000 crore atthe end of the third quarter.The companyhopes the pace of order inflows to furtheraccelerate in the last quarter.

The company bagged orders for sup-ply of equipment to 12,479 mw capacity in the current financial year upto thethird quarter from the power sector.Meanwhile, the company booked ordersfor equipment supply to captive powerprojects worth 1,965 mw. Bhel alsoreceived orders worth Rs 967 crore forexport of power equipment. The Unionpower ministry has envisaged 100 gwpower generation capacity under thecoming Twelfth plan. Orders for 33,000mw have been placed by developers. 55%of the orders have gone to Bhel.

Bhel’s net profit rose 35% to Rs 1,072crore in the third quarter from the sameperiod of the previous fiscal. The com-pany announced an interim dividend of

Rs 11 per share after its board meeting.The company’s profit before interest

and tax in the quarter works out to Rs1,713 crore. Of this, Rs 1,308 crore camefrom the power sector and the rest fromthe industry. Meanwhile, the company’stotal income increased to Rs 7,422 crorefrom Rs 6,328 crore in the correspondingperiod of the past year, an increase of17%. Of the company’s total income inthe quarter, Rs 5,708 crore came from the power sector. The rest was from the industry. The company’s operatingprofit margins rose 319 basis points in thethird quarter over the same period of thepreceding fiscal. Bhel’s earning pershare (EPS) in the latest quarter rose by35.6% to Rs 21.91 from the same period ofthe past fiscal.

Rao adds, “Bhel has got and estab-lished over a period, all over the countrywe can reach any customer within notime. Recent example is Srisailamhydropower station which was underwater since October 2.We started attaind-ing to that unit from 6th of October and allthe units have been commissioned in thelast 6 weeks. This was a record. So, this isa kind of service capability which Bhelhas established.”

The company has seen declining mar-ket share in recent years because of com-petition from cheaper Chinese imports.Ithas been making representation to thegovernment for a level playing againstChinese suppliers. It seems that the gov-ernment has taken seriously the threat toBhel from imports.

To keep the Chinese threat at bay, thegovernment has already put up condi-tions for having a manufacturing facilityin India and participating in bidding forbulk supply of supercritical equipmentto projects envisaged by NTPC andDamodar Valley Corporation.Bhel hopesto benefit from that.

Meanwhile, the government alsoplans to bar developers of ultra megapower projects from importing equip-ment by putting in conditions of having amanufacturing facility in India. Thisshould also help Bhel regain its marketshare in the medium term.

WITH capacity expansion planson hold and government spend-ing taking a backseat due to

election code of conduct, Larsen &Toubro (L&T) started to feel the heat onthe execution side.

However, this can be seen a minor blipfor the company that actually saw its hig-hest revenue, operating profits and evennet profit being recorded. Net sales forfinancial year 2008-09 stood at Rs 33,647crore, on a standalone basis. And operat-ing profit at Rs 4425 crore and the netprofit was at Rs 3,482. Key ratios howeverdipped, with the operating margin dip-ping from 13% level 2007-08 to 12.8% in2008-09, similarly the return on equityalso slipped from 20.58% to 17.55%.

According to chairman A M Naik,“The company performed well despitethe adverse scenario in 2008-09. Orderinflows grew by 23% over 2007-08, and inline with our efforts to diversify the geo-graphical spread of our businesses,international orders constituted 15% ofthe total order inflows. The Middle Eastcontinues to be a focus area for us and wehave enhanced our footprint in the GCCRegion. The order book position stood atRs 70,300 crore at the end of financial year 2008-09, giving us some revenue visi-bility going forward.”

Moreover, this was a year when L&T, aprofessionally managed company, saw aninternal reorganisation where comple-mentary business units have been organ-ised under vertically integrated busines-ses termed ‘Operating Companies’ (OCs).These OCs have their own internal boardsand embedded shared service functionssuch as HR, resource support and finance& accounts to enable self-sufficiency.Naikstrongly believes, “The new structureopens up opportunities for leadershipdevelopment,provides a platform for nur-turing internal resources and is expectedto provide focus to businesses within eachOC. The structure aims to enhance share-holder value creation.”

Moreover, adverse economic condi-tions seem to have worked to the com-

pany’s advantage in enabling it to posi-tion itself as a stable career destination.

Going ahead, the company would belooking at several initiatives. The man-agement sees the hydrocarbon businessas a strong opportunity—both in theupstream oil and gas exploration/ex-traction and in midstream refineries.Increased capacity in the Middle East islikely to yield some growth in this sectorin years to come, adds Naik.

Road projects have started receivingfocused government attention and arelikely to witness increased awards onbuild operate and transfer (BOT) basis.Naik reckons, “This is an area where wecan leverage past record, scale, designstrength and execution capability as andwhen tenders are floated as a first steptowards final award of these projects.”

The company would also be looking atleveraging its strong track record in thearea of evacuation, storage, treatmentand transmission of bulk water to exploitemerging opportunities in states that arewater-deficit. “Our power equipmentmanufacturing venture is an integralpart of our efforts to grow this businessin years to come and we have startedreceiving large orders in this space,”saysNaik. He also points out towards nuclearpower generation,which is slated to growby an order of magnitude over the nextdecade and more, can spell major growthopportunities for L&T in the long term.And then there is the Indian Railwaysand the defense sector, when privatised,offers large business potential and this isan area where L&T is well positioned.

In the December 2009 quarter,the com-pany managed to grow its order inflow by22%, over the corresponding period ofthe previous year, gross revenues duringthe period dipped to Rs8139 crore lower by6%. However better execution saw itsoperating pofit margins grow from 11.2%to 12.5%. And, the company’s order bookas on 31st December, 2009 has attained asignificant size of Rs91104 crore.

So as the economic activity picks up and execution of projects gets betterL&T would be in a position to take maximum advantage.

RELIANCE Communications(RCOM) the flagship company ofReliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani

Group, has been at the forefront of thetransformation of the Indian telecomspace and continues to do so.

And despite the slowdown in theIndian economy in financial year 2009where corporate buying remained sub-dued, the company managed to grow itstotal income by 20.34%, over the previousyear taking the amount to Rs 22,948 crore. For the same period, its net earn-ings touched Rs 6,045 crore against Rs5,401 crore the previous financial year.The company has managed to maintain a29% compounded growth rate in its rev-enues over the past four financial yearsand a compounded growth rate of 55% inits operating profits and a strong 139% innet earnings.

Anil D Ambani, chairman of RCOMwhile speaking about the performance intesting time said, “It is therefore com-mendable that the year saw us makingimportant strides forward in our missionto become one of the world’s leading inte-grated service providers across theentire value chain of telecom busi-nesses.” And while it has managed to cap-ture almost all elements of thetelecommunication sector value chain,the company would also be restructuringits businesses. “We are alive to the needsof changing industry trends and eco-nomic environment,” says Ambani . Thevertical businesses are being restruc-tured and realigned to make them meetthe requirements of enterprise and indi-vidual customers.

The demerger of the Optic FiberNetwork to Reliance Infratel, the telecominfrastructure subsidiary of RCOM, willenhance the company’s value proposi-tion in the telecom infrastructure seg-ment and, at the same time, create asimple and transparent structure.

Ambani believes, “Each of the busi-nesses operated by the Company, eitherby itself or through subsidiaries,affiliatecompanies or strategic investments in

other companies, is poised at the cusp ofsignificant opportunities for growth,”

In line with the company’s objective ofprofitable growth, margins in the wire-less business remained amongst thehighest in the industry at 37% in finan-cial year 2009. This was despite the sig-nificant capital expenditure committedto the business over the last two years.

“With the unique advantages avail-able to our business, we are now at theforefront of the next wave of growth inthe Indian infrastructure,” mentionsAmbani.

The year has marked the launch of itsGSM business and the company deliv-ered the highest wireless subscriberacquisition in the world at 5 million in thefirst month of the GSM launch.Following the launch of the nationwideGSM network, the company capturedmore than 25% share of net additions in amarket that already has seven to eighttelecom operators on a network thatextends seamless coverage to over 1 bil-lion Indians across 24,000 towns and600,000 villages.

And the growth numbers continue asthe company acquired nearly 34 millionsubscribers between January andDecember 2009. That makes RCOM thefourth largest, single country wirelesstelecom operator globally with nearly 94million subscribers.

The company has been receiving flakfor starting off a tariff war in the telecomsector. And this is not the first occasionwhere the company was accused ofchanging industry dynamics.

However, some impact of this was felton the financials in the December 2009quarter as consolidated revenues weredown 6.9% to Rs 5,309.8 crore, from Rs5,702.6 crore of the previous quarter ofthe same year. For the same period, theoperating profit shrunk by 9.3% to touchRs 4,476.1 crore. The management how-ever remains confident that the tariffwar in the sector would consolidate in thedays to come.

GIVE me a lever and I can move theworld,” said Archimedes, theGreek genius.In the context of the

Indian corporate world Infosys Techno-logies seems to have several levers thatkeep its profitability moving.

So even when times were tough, espe-cially in financial year 2008-09, the com-pany managed to move its revenues by30%,over the previous year to take it to Rs21,693 crore. And, during the sameperiod, the net earnings were up by 28.8%to Rs 5,988 crore. Interestingly operatingprofit margins grew to 34% levels fromthe 32% levels recorded in the previousyear, and the return on capital remainedstrong at 42% levels.

“Our goal is to have the best marginsin the industry and we have demon-strated time and again that we have probably the best set of levers or the bestway of controlling our margins,” said S Gopalakrishnan, CEO and MD in ananalyst call recently. In a letter to share-holders, Gopalakrishnan and SDShibulal, CFO and director, mention thatthey continued to grow their businessdespite lower velocity. They attribute tothe growth in business to their modelwhich is built on enduring relationshipsand this has enabled their clients toremain with them despite the upheavals.They have built relationships and arenow leveraging them to generate revenuegrowth. But this too comes through someinnovative thinking and commitmenttowards clients.

The management has rolled out sev-eral engagement models that bundle upthe services and products from their sta-ble to serve clients. The new engagementmodels offer the client greater pricingflexibility and also more operational con-trol. And then there is the tested globaldelivery model that has been tested in themarket place. This enabled the companyto grow its million dollar clients to 327 in2008-09 from 310 in the previous year.And,after the December 2009 quarter there arenow 336 million dollar plus clients.

Moreover, even the manner in which

“If we look at on the drivers for mar-gins—onsite-offshore ratio, utilisation,the business mix we have, some servicelines have a better margin than someother service lines, some geographies,some customers. So it is a portfolioapproach and that is why we have beenable to manage this better than anybodyelse,” said Gopalakrishnan in a call.

Moreover, the company has beenexperimenting on different pricing mod-els. As Gopalakrishnan pointed out, “Weare experimenting with ticket-basedpricing in maintenance where we have ahistory from the client, we know the dataon how many tickers are expected etc. Indevelopment projects, of course fixedprice is the way t o go. We are also experi-menting with outcome-based pricingwhich means that the (in consulting weare doing this) we will give them a fixedprice and an upside, a bonus if the out-come was achieved”

A mix of all this and an improvementin the business outlook saw the December2009 quarter report strong numbers.Totalincome at Rs 5,741 crore was 2.8% higherthan the September 2009 quarter. Andoperating profit was at Rs 2,038 crore, up6%, sequentially and for the same periodthe net profit was at Rs 1,582 crore, up2.7%. Around 32 clients were added dur-ing the December 2009 quarter and therewere 4,429 net additions to the team dur-ing the quarter. There are now around1,09,582 employees with the company andits plans more additions.

“Global economic recovery seems tobe led b the US and the financial ser-vices,” said Gopalakrishnan, while an-nouncing the December 2009 results. Healso mentions, “Even though IT budgetsare expected to be fat in 2010,offshore out-sourcing is expected to benefit from thisrecovery.” At the moment, with the rupeeremaining volatile, Infosys marginscould be under pressure. However, it stillhas a lever that could support marginsteadiness. The employee utilisation inthe December quarter was at 68.8%(including trainees) and this could easilybe increased and safeguard the margins,as the management aims.

TOUGH times call for tough deci-sions, but looking ahead and creat-ing advantages is more proactive.

And this has been the theme at Wipro,which has been continuously looking at creating new advantages for itselfand its customers over the six decades of its existence. It was thought that theend of Y2K would see technology compa-nies, especially those in India wind up.However financial services customershad begun to see tremendous value thattechnology could provide and expandedtheir footprint. And then the slowdown ofthe early 2000s saw companies look at out-sourcing in a major manner. Wipro, inmany ways, has been providing thoughtleadership in this space.

Speaking about the crisis, AzimPremji, chairman Wipro mentioned,“The world, at lightning speed, contin-ues to globalise and become interdepen-dent. For those among us who had notquite appreciated the depth of thischange, the 2008 global economic crisisdrove home this message forcefully.”

Despite this unprecedented and chal-lenging environment, Wipro for the year2008-09, saw a 28% growth in revenues,over the previous year, at Rs 25,500 crore.and a 25% growth in profit before interestand taxes at Rs 4,400 crore.

“We have performed better than ourguidance in every quarter, which furtherreinforces the strength and diversity ofour business model and our ability tograsp customer needs,” says Premji.

The management has been building abusiness portfolio that is expected todeliver in both good and bad times andnot just in one environment. Apart fromthe technology business which con-tributes to more than 75% of the revenuesand 90% of the PBIT, other businesses,like consumer care and infrastructureengineering are also being developed andthe management claims that they havebeen leading growth and gaining marketshare across various segments.

“Our ability to grow aggressivelyduring these years, has demonstrated

our ability to re-invent ourselves andinvest for the future, while continuingto serve the immediate concerns of ourcustomers. In a similar way, the currentphase, too, requires us to reinvent andaddress the new and immediate chal-lenges that these tough times pose to ourcustomers, as we judiciously invest forbetter times ahead,” says Premji.

For the quarter ended December20099, the IT services business reportedrevenues of Rs 5,164 crore a growth of 2%over the same quarter of the previousyear and a PBIT of Rs 1,227 crore, agrowth of 17%. Operating income to rev-enue for the quarter was 23.8%.

The IT Services business added 31 newclients during the quarter. The companyhad 102,746 employees as of December 31,2009, an increase of 4,855 people.

Premji and team have now articulateda three pronged strategy to take onadverse conditions and grow. The strat-egy encapsulates, enhancing customervalue, enhancing operational efficien-cies and three—embracing green.

In the first area, the intention wouldbe to offer a strong value proposition tocustomers rather than cutting cornersand compromising on the solution. “It is in this context, that we have made thechoice to provide customers with ‘morefor more’. We will provide them withmore value and in return,place favorablyfor a bigger share of their wallet,” saysPremji.Today,as global service providersadopt ‘offshore led outsourcing’; the lead-ers would need to constantly innovate. Inthe areas of creating operational effi-ciencies, the management claims thattheir innovations in flex-delivery andshared services delivery models for soft-ware maintenance and support, puts itahead in this effort.

Premji mentions, “For us, green ITand IT for green are not mere servicelines providing financial returns, it isalso our contribution to the survival of our planet.” The company would be looking at solutions that would enablecompanies use their resources better and thereby reduce the burden on theenvironment.

THE famous corporate guru Peter F Drucker once famously men-tioned, “Management is about

doing the right things, but leadership is about doing things right.” So whenmost of the companies, especially tech-nology companies, were facing the wrath slowing down of economies in the west Tata Consultancy Services(TCS), expanded its leadership positionin India.

So during the financial year 2008-09,TCS’s consolidated revenues cross thecoveted $6 billion mark. Consolidatedrevenues grew by 23% in 2008-09, over theprevious year, to touch Rs27,813 crore,and consolidated operating profits grewby 26% to Rs 7,170 crore. And at a timewhen profitability was under doubt, itsoperating margins improved by 109 basispoints to 23.73%. The net profit was Rs 5,256 crore, a growth of 5% over 2007-08,due to external factors like extremecurrency volatility.

“The company is positioned to work incollaborative mode, learning constantly,critically evaluating all that it does anddemonstrate the leadership it is knownfor,” said S Ramadorai, former chiefexecutive officer and managing director.On October 6, 2009 Ramadorai smoothlyhanded over the mantle to NatarajanChandrasekaran.

The management over the years hasbeen looking towards expanding its geo-graphical reach so as to reduce its depen-dence on the US markets. Ramadoraipoints out, “The company has been con-tinuously making investments to open upnew markets and services. The invest-ments the company made in new growthmarkets like Asia-Pacific, Latin Americaand now in Middle East and Africa areattaining scale, size and a meaningfulpresence. In 2008-09, the new growth mar-kets grew at a rate of 16%.”

And while newer markets grew, eventhe traditional US market businessremained robust. TCS’ biggest marketNorth America crossed the $3 billion revenue milestone and grew by 26% in

2008-09 despite the recession in theregion, while Europe grew by 38.5% during the year.

With the $ 505 million acquisition ofCitigroup’s captive BPO in India, whichhas since been renamed TCS e-Serve, hasenabled the company to add a vital newaspect to its banking and financial ser-vices business. The acquisition camewith 12,500 talented professionals and acontract from Citigroup worth $2.5 bil-lion over nine years. While operationshave been expanding, the smooth transi-tion of leadership has been noteworthyand a demonstration of strong manage-ment practices at TCS. And as the globaleconomic scenario has improved thecompany has been in a position to derivemaximum benefit.

And this was reflected in the resultsfor the quarter ended December 2009 asrevenues at Rs 7,649 crore saw a 2.9%growth over the previous quarter of thesame year and 5.1% over the previousyear. Similarly, operating profit marginsjumped up by 126 basis points, sequen-tially. And the net profit grew by 11.1%over the September 2009 quarter to touchRs 1,824 crore.

Speaking about this, N Chandra-sekaran the new CEO& MD said,“TCS yetagain posts high growth and delivers onmargin improvements for the third suc-cessive quarter in this difficult year. Ourinvestments ahead-of-time in emergingmarkets, multiple industries and clientrelationships is reflected in our exem-plary performance.”

However, it was the US market thatcontinued to lead demand recovery. UK &European firms are increasingly begin-ning to invest for the upturn, said themanagement. APAC and India are seeingstrong demand driven by growth in sec-tors like Energy, Utilities, and BFSI.

The growth momentum is alsoreflected across the portfolio of clientswith 32 new client additions, growth inthe number of active clients and addi-tions of seven clients in $5 million plusbracket. Clearly, there are a lot manyright things being done at TCS to main-tain its leadership position.

PUBLIC sector gas marketer GAILIndia is well positioned to takeadvantage of the country’s grow-

ing shift towards natural gas as a cleansource of energy. Meanwhile, there aresignificant upsides for the company’spolymer business in the medium- to long-term, given the low consumption of theproduct in India, compared to developedcountries.

“As I look back over the past 25 years,we derive considerable pride and satis-faction in the company’s achievementsand progress. It started as a one projectcompany and today it has 19 joint ven-tures, subsidiaries and associate compa-nies, of which six are outside India’sborders,” says BC Tripathi, chairmanand managing director GAIL.

The company plans to increase itspipeline network from 7,220 km to 13,825 km by the financial year 2012-13and has lined up investment of Rs 30,000crore.

GAIL’s net profit jumped 240% to Rs 860 crore in the third quarter of thecurrent financial year on the back ofstrong growth in revenues from gastransmission and LPG sales. In addition,a lower subsidy burden — that is, Rs 455crore compared with Rs 905 crore in thesame period of the previous fiscal — alsosupported the company’s profitability.The company registered 40% growth inits revenues from natural gas trans-mission business. GAIL earned revenuesof Rs 853 crore as against Rs 610 crore in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal.

In India, the pace of capacity additionin pipeline network has been rather slow until recently, because of theabsence of a regulatory authority and thelow availability of natural gas fromdomestic sources. But now that the gov-ernment has put in place a regulatorybody, the Petroleum & Natural GasRegulatory Board (PNGRB), pipelineprojects are likely to be rolled out at afaster pace.

“The next priority is to expand the

company’s retail presence through CNGand PNG supply in cities and along highways to rapidly expand its reach and presence across the country,” men-tions Tripathi.

GAIL’s strategy is to integrate verti-cally in the upstream hydrocarbon sectoras well as in downstream retail gas,petro-chemicals. The company has participat-ing interests in 27 oil & gas explorationblocks in India and abroad. Its Cambaybasin block has started production andother discovered blocks are also gettingready for production.

The company also expects to benefitfrom increased LNG availability in coming years. The total LNG availabilityin the country is expected to increase to 56million standard cubic metre per day(mmscmd) by 2011-12 from the current 30mmscmd.

GAIL is also increasing its presence inthe trading of imported natural gas. It isbuying LNG under long-term contract asalso from the spot market. Trading in nat-ural gas is a lucrative business and vol-umes are expected to grow fast. GAILalready has retail gas presence in 15 citiesand plans to expand its footprint to 50cities by 2012-13.

Tripathi mentions, “The companyhas also initiated steps to deploy tech-nology to facilitate its diversification inemerging business as well as bring grea-ter efficiency in existing operations.”

GAIL is expanding its presence in thepetrochemical business, which alreadycontributes about 30% of the company’stotal revenue. The company has aninstalled capacity to manufacture 410lakh of polymers at its Pata plant in UttarPradesh. It is already undertaking imple-mentation of a capacity expansion pro-ject to raise the manufacturing capacityto 5 lakh by the end of the current fiscal.The company has envisaged raisingcapacity of the Pata plant to 1 mmtpa inthe long term.

The company is setting up a 2,80,000tonnes-capacity petrochemical plant inAssam. GAIL also holds 19% equity inONGC’s upcoming Dahej petrochemicalproject in Gujarat.

“Spirit, commitment &dedication of the teamat all locations andacross all levels isphenomenal and is the company’s greatestasset.”RATAN TATAChairman, Tata Motors

FOR the auto-manufacturers, finan-cial year 2009 would be one to for-get. The credit crunch and the

subsequent slowing of the economy hada telling effect on the auto manufactur-ers. Almost all players reported poornumbers. However, in many ways thefinancial year was also a landmark, forthe company for its acquisitions and thelaunch of the famous small car Nano.

Ratan Tata, chairman of Tata Motorsreminisces about the financial year 2009,“The collapse of the global financial sec-tor, the consequent lack of access tocredit and working capital, along withthe meteoric rise in commodities and fos-sil fuel prices, have collectively had anunprecedented devastating effect on theglobal automotive sector.”

And while Tata Motors’ standaloneIndian operating profits declined by 51%,over the previous year, the company stillmanaged to post a net profit of Rs 1,001.26crore.This of course reflects a strong firsthalf year, and a lower second half yearwith a particularly difficult third quarter,when the full impact of the collapse of thecommercial vehicle sector was felt.

The global slowdown also had a signif-icant impact on the Jaguar Land Rovercompany which Tata Motors acquired inJune 2008. Sales of the Jaguar and LandRover brands declined by 20% and 51%respectively from October 2008 – March2009 as compared to the correspondingperiod in the previous year as the

The deferment of infrastructure pro-jects and the slowdown in the mining sec-tor have resulted in a tremendous drop indemand for medium and heavy vehiclesas the market for these vehicles declinedby 33%. However, the company’s newbelow 1 tonne commercial vehicle Acewas a runaway success. However, TataMotors, notwithstanding the downturn,increased its market share in trucks. Itcould also gain market share in the bussegment with newly developed vehiclesfrom its facilities in Goa and its joint ven-ture facility at Dharwad.

Noting this Tata says,“The spirit,com-

mitment and dedication of the whole TataMotors team at all its locations and acrossall levels is truly phenomenal and this con-tinues to be the company’s greatest asset.I feel confident that if we can sustain ouroperations through this difficult period,taking whatever steps we need to take tosee the year through, we could overcomeall the obstacles in our path.”

And indeed the company has bouncedback and with the liquidity scenarioimproving and the stimulus package sup-porting growth Tata Motors reported rev-enues of Rs 8979.90 crore on a stand-alonebasis for the quarter ended December 31,2009, a growth of 88.7% compared to Rs4758.62 crore in the corresponding quarterlast year.

Low commodity costs and higher vol-umes saw the company’s operating mar-gins come in at 12.8%, an improvement of1092 basis points compared with the cor-responding quarter of the previous year.Volume recovery and marginal priceincrease undertaken in October 2009aided the company to maintain doubledigit margins. And the company man-aged a stellar net profit of Rs 400.14 crorein the December 2009 quarter as against aloss of Rs263.26 crore in the same quarterof the previous year.

Clearly, the company has depicted thatit has the mettle to withstand economicstorms and other turbulence as well. Thecompany managed to shift its Nano oper-ations out of Singur, West Bengal and hasrelocated to Gujarat.And,it still managedto launch the car on March 23,2009,a land-mark event for the company and even theIndian corporate sector.

Steadily, operations at the JaguarLand Rover plants are improving and arecent dealer survey showed that theyhad optimism on the brands doing well.Also, the company is now looking at tak-ing the Nano global. It has already startedits study of the US four-wheeler marketthoroughly and expected to launch theNano there by 2012.Meeting the stringentsafety standards and emission normswould pose a challenge for the company.But then going by its record, the companydoes manage to beat expectations.

METHODOLOGY

Pradip Kumar Dey

THE FE 500 list has been compiledfrom largely published balancesheets of companies, which

closed their last financial year between April 1, 2008, and March 31,2009. And for some companies June2009 figures have been considered. Itincludes all private and public sectorcompanies (excluding non-bankingfinance companies and banks) that arelisted on the markets and whose bal-ance sheets were available by end-December 2009.

In the tables that follow, any refer-ence to 2009 (current) refers to thefinancial year 2008-09. And this is simi-lar for 2008 (previous). Where compa-nies had financial years that were lessthan 12 months or more than 12, theresults have been annualised to arriveat a comparable figure.

For the purposes of our study, theranking has been done on the basis ofNET SALES, which is sales or mainincome minus excise duty. Salesinclude service charges and leaseincome.

ASSETS relate to fixed assets (land,buildings, machinery, etc), plus capitalwork-in-progress, cash and bank bal-ances, loans and other debtor balances,investments and other intangibleassets, excluding accumulated lossesand advance tax provisions.

OPERATING PROFIT is arrived atgross profit plus interest.

GROSS PROFIT is arrived at profitbefore tax (PBT) plus depreciation.Deduct taxes (including deferred taxes)from PBT figure and you get profit aftertax (PAT). PAT minus dividends givesus RETAINED PROFIT.

MARKET CAPITALISATION isthe market value of a company’s

outstanding shares based on closingmarket prices as on January 29,2010.

NET WORTH is the paid-up capital(equity and preference) plus totalreserves and surplus excluding accu-mulated losses.

EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)refer to PAT divided by the number ofoutstanding equity shares.

DEBT includes all long-term loans,including debentures, plus installmentcredit. Thus the DEBT- EQUITYRATIO refers to debt divided by networth. RETURN ON SALES is PAT aspercentage of net sales, while theRETURN ON ASSETS is gross profitas a percentage of assets.

The RETURN ON NET WORTH(RONW) represents PAT as a percent-age of net worth.

OPM represents operating profit asa percentage of net sales.

The IMC Ramkrishna Bajaj National Quality Award (IMC RBNQA) recognizes organizations that show an outstanding system for managing its products, services, human resources and customer relationships. The Award process started in 1997 with manufacturing organizations and now covers six categories – manufacturing, service, small business, overseas, education and health care. Moving onto Education and Health Care was a conscious decision on our part as these two categories are of great significance in bringing about inclusive growth. At the Indian Merchants’ Chamber (IMC) we see the Ramkrishna Bajaj National Quality program as a catalyst for nation-building. Since the institution of the Award approximately 400 companies have expressed their intention to apply and 270 of these companies have gone through the evaluation process. To match the stature of international awards, the IMC RBNQA criteria are similar to the Malcolm Baldrige criteria of USA and follows a similar process of training and rigorous evaluation. Organizations participating in the IMC RBNQA apply the concepts of total quality management with the objective of winning customers, to grow and to remain competitive in the global scenario.

The IMC Ramkrishna Bajaj National Quality Awards….. Mapping the Journey Towards Excellence for Indian organizations since 1997

Over these years RBNQA has rapidly become a symbol of excellence by creating general awareness that quality is the only feature, which helps beat competition, by creating a clear, tough universal standard for measuring quality by integrating all the quality concepts and at the same time emphasizing high integrity and quality leadership.

All applicant organizations irrespective of winning an Award or not – receive a detailed feedack report – beneficial to map the quality journey of the Organization.

We are proud of the fact that Indian organizations have made great strides

in the excellence journey. They understand that investing in quality principles and performance excellence pays off in increased productivity, satisfied employees and customers, and improved profitability – both for customers and investors.

The IMC RBNQ Award process has multiple benefits to Indian Industry. The sharing of best practices by winners, the examiners, who develop into a pool of quality experts and the participating organizations all benefit from this process. In fact, every applicant has expressed that the very process of writing the application has been a learning experience.

The IMC Ramkrishna Bajaj National Quality Awards has the unique distinction of having its winners go on further, to win the International Asia Pacific Quality Awards for eight years consecutively.

AMONG the industries (83) stud-ied, only six showed negativegrowth in their total income

during 2008-09. Mention may be made of aluminium and aluminium Pro-ducts (-1.63%),automobiles-four wheel-ers (-6.31%), hotels (-5.83%), real estate(-34.70%), textiles-large (-3.80%) andtextiles-processing (-1.33%). All theother 77 broad industry categoriesunder which the FE 500 had beenclubbed had positive growth to show.

As always, aggregates tend to con-ceal some real good or bad perfor-mances. Thus, even though cementproducts showed good income growthof 48.20%, Rain Commodities grew atthe higher rate of 75.47%. The groupaverage was also weighed up by the47.20% income increase reported byIndian Hume Pipe—one of the biggestcement products companies. The netprofit of the group also increased by23.70% during 2008-09.

Similarly, the engineering industrysaw a 30.94% income growth. But atleast three engineering companies,namely Engineers India, Sunil HitechEngineers and McNally Bharat Enggreported more than 75% increase. Thenet profit of the engineering group ofcompanies increased by 20.38% to Rs 3,712 crore during 2008-09.

Among the industries studied, thebest performers of the year were con-struction, telecommunications, com-puter-software mega, pharmaceutical-Indian bulk drugs and formulations,fertilisers and sugar.

The details of industry perfor-mance appear in the tables startingfrom page 70. Given below is a briefsynopsis of the major gainers andlosers of 2008-09.

Construction: The industryshowed excellent results with positivegrowth rates in all financial indicators.While total income increased by

around 41.42%, net profit went up by24.57%. And the retained profit of thegroup increased by 26.53% to Rs 2,848crore during 2008-09. And the debt-equity ratio increased from 1.01 during2007-08 to 1.30 during 2008-09. PunjLloyd, Lanco Infratech, Gammon Indiaand Era Infra Engineering were amongthe best performers.

According to industry sources, theIndian construction industry grew by7.2% in the year 2008-09 against 10.1%growth in 2007-08. This has primarilybeen on account of increased govern-ment spending on physical infrastruc-ture in the last few years,with program-mes such as National HighwayDevelopment Programme (NHDP) andPMGSY/Bharat Nirman Programmereceiving a major fillip of late.

On the basis of an analysis of theforward and backward linkages of con-struction, the multiplier effect for con-struction on the economy is estimatedto be significant. With more than 27,770enterprises involved directly in theactivity of construction,the industry isone of the largest employers in the

country and is characterized by a mix of both organised and unorganisedentities.

Recently, the financing of infra-structure development has largelyshifted to the private sector, primarilythrough the use of Public PrivatePartnership (PPP), which are based ona partnership between the public andthe private sectors for the purpose ofdelivering a project or service tradi-tionally provided by the public sector.

Fertilisers: This industry reporteda significant growth in almost all finan-cial indicators,with a net profit growthof 37.15% during the year 2008-09. Theretained profit of this group alsoincreased by 40.97% to Rs 1,659 croreduring 2008-09. The stars in the cate-gory were Fert & Chem Travancore(378.82%), Coromandel International(136.64%) and GSFC (109.42%). Thedebt-equity ratio of the groupdecreased from 0.38 during 2007-08 to0.17 during 2008-09.

The Indian fertiliser industry hasbeen rapidly growing during the lastseveral years.While urea is under priceand movement control, the phosphaticfertilisers continue to be under theindirect control of the government.The government made certain changesin the policies relating to the conces-sion scheme for phosphatic and potasic(P&K) fertilisers. The governmentchanged the payment of subsidy onurea from a despatch basis to receiptbasis and in case of ANP, payment ofconcession was changed from a salebasis to receipt basis. The governmentalso rationalised selling prices of allfertilisers based on their nutrient con-tents w.e.f. June 18, 2008.

FMCG: This industry reported pos-itive growth in all financial indicators,with net profit growth of 3.13% duringthe year 2008-09. The retained profit ofthis group also increased by 42.25% toRs 2,183 crore during 2008-09. NestleColgate Palmolive, Procter & Gamble

and Dabur did well during the year.The better performance of Nestle isreflected in the net profit growth of29.06% during 2008-09. The retainedprofit of the company also increased by 105.58% to Rs 196.62 crore during2008-09.

According to the directors’ report,the milk products and nutrition busi-ness continued to perform well as perexpectations. Staggered price in-creases and cost optimisation initia-tives contributed to offset a steepincrease in commodity prices like milk solids, green coffee, fuels and vegetable fat. In the year 2009-10, theeconomic environment is going to bemore challenging and will requireinnovative thinking, agility and speedin anticipating changes. Companiesshould continue to direct its efforts on product innovation and renovation,to control costs, improve penetration

and manage price-value relationshipfor its brands in increasingly difficultmarket conditions.

Cement: The cement industryshowed a somewhat better perfor-mance in terms of sales during 2008-09with total income of 17 major cementcompanies increasing by just 21.20%but net profit decreased by 9.61%.

The lower profitability of thecement companies during the year2008-09 has been due to the ban ofexports, spiraling input costs, espe-cially coal and freight and lowerdemand in the international markets.This is reflected in the performance ofACC, whose net profit decreased by15.70% during the year 2008-09. Theretained profit of the company alsodecreased by 21.26% to Rs 837.46 croreduring 2008-09.

India’s cement industry recorded agrowth of 7.8% in the year 2008 in the

Indian economy. The change of exciseduty structure imposed by the govern-ment affected sales realisation. Somecompanies in the cement industry hadvoluntarily decided to hold cementprices in response to the government’sconcerns over acceleration in inflationand therefore were unable to materi-ally pass on the increases in input costto customers.This was also responsiblefor lowering profitability of cementcompanies. A ban of cement exportswas also implemented, and these mea-sures had an immediate impact ondemand and reduced the growth.

Automobiles- four wheelers: Theindustry’s total income decreased by6.31% and net profit decreased by40.49% during the year 2008-09. AshokLeyland, Tata Motors, HindustanMotors and Saraj Mazda experienced asignificant decrease in total incomeduring the year 2008-09. Among these
