13P1F6-27

1.4 Competitive Analysis

• The Indian UPS market is a highly competitive, fragmented, and growing market with both multinational and Indian suppliers competing for space

• The competitiveness in the market is increasing with less barriers for the entry of new participants, especially in the low end power range (up to 20kVA)

• The market has seen the exit of both multinational (Mitsubishi, Siemens) and Indian suppliers (TVS Electronics Limited) in the last few years primarily due to intense price pressure and a need or desire or strategic decision to focus on its core areas

• Price, after-sales service, and delivery are becoming the key differentiating factors in addressing the demand of the market

• The higher power range segment, especially more than 60kVA onwards is dominated by the multinational companies with very few Indian suppliers operating in this space

• Some Indian suppliers who are operating in the low end power range segment (up to 20kVA ) are forming Joint Ventures (JV) or technical tie-ups or distribution tie-ups to cater to the mid-end and high-end power ranges (20 kVA onwards) with multinational companies, especially from Europe, which do not have direct presence in India. This is basically done by the Indian suppliers to widen their product range and also to increase their margins, which are higher when compared to those in the low-end power range (up to 20kVA ). Unitek Power Solutions India Ltd has recently formed a JV with Borri S. p. A., Italy

14P1F6-27

Competitive Analysis (Contd…)

• Offline, Line-Interactive and Online UPS, especially up to 10kVA, are sold primarily through resellers channel partners. From 10kVA to 60kVA, many Online UPS are sold through Value-Added Resellers (VAR), in addition to being sold by the direct sales team of suppliers. From 60kVA onwards, products are generally sold by direct sales team of suppliers

• To offset the increase in the cost of raw materials and other overheads, UPS suppliers are strengthening their raw material sourcing processes, making their supply chains more efficient and expanding their distribution networks in order to remain competitive in the market

15P1F6-27

1.5 Major Research Findings

Opportunities and Forecasts

• The Indian UPS market is projected to exhibit double-digit growth rates up to 2012 resulting from steady demand from sectors like Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI), telecom, retail, Information Technology and Information Technology enabled services(IT/ITES), manufacturing, infrastructure and others

• Post 2012, the market may not be able to sustain the double-digit growth as the growth of major end-user segments may slow down

• Robust growth of the UPS market offers opportunity to both multinational and Indian suppliers to introduce better products at competitive prices with excellent after-sales service support

Market Overview and Definitions (Contd…)

Definitions

A UPS is a device or a network of devices that serves as a form of backup power ensuring a continuous supply of electrical power to various electronic devices. The power supplied can last anywhere from a few minutes to several hours, depending on the setup of the system and the equipment.

By deploying these systems, users are expected to be able to conduct the following:

• Have sufficient power to keep the equipment running during the time taken to start a backup generator after a power failure

• Minimize the downtime of a power outage by allowing sufficient time to conduct a proper backup and shut down of networks and computer systems, so as to prevent losss of important information and data

• Adequate power to keep mission-critical applications running during power outages

21P1F6-27

Market Overview and Definitions (Contd…)

• Certain UPS systems also serve as power regulators, which prevent the undesirable effects of power anomalies and ensure that a constant amount of electrical power is supplied. Associated electronic devices are usually mission-critical in nature and cannot be shut down unexpectedly

• This study defines one unit as a single UPS, which consists of a battery, a battery charger orrectifier, and an inverter. The revenues presented in this study represent the supplier’s revenue (excluding distributors revenue). Revenue consists of unit sales and not of services or any other complementary products

• This study segments the research service by the following power ranges : Less than 1kVA 1-5 kVA 5.1-20 kVA20.1-60 kVA60.1-200 kVAMore than 200 kVA

Market Overview and Definitions (Contd…)

Standby or Offline UPS—Standby UPS systems are one of most commonly used UPS systems. They are usually used for running the less mission-critical applications. Electrical power flows from the power grid into the application, and at the same time, charges the battery. When not in use, the battery remains idle and does not interfere with the running of the application. When utility power fails, UPS system is kick-started and power flows from the battery into the application, keeping it running even though it does not receive power from the power grid. Applications include personal desktops, printers , small servers and others. The topology of the Standby (Offline) UPS system is available in the below 5 kVA range.

Line Interactive UPS—Most commonly found in small businesses and small server applications. Electrical power flows from the power grid through a transfer switch and into an inverter, which is connected to the output of the UPS system. When power from the power grid fails, the transfer switch is opened and power flows from the battery to the application. Line interactive UPS system also provides additional filtering and protection. This topology of UPS systems dominates the UPS types in the 0.5 to 5 kVA range, although it is also available in the below 20 kVA range.

24P1F6-27

Market Overview and Definitions (Contd…)

Online UPS—Online UPS systems are generally more expensive than the other two and are mainly sold in the 3 kVA and above power range. In an online UPS system, the primary power path is to the inverter instead of from the power grid. The battery, along with a rectifier plays the major role in powering the application, even under normal situations. Using a double conversion topology, the power from the grid is converted from AC to DC and then to AC again, thus effectively reducing all noises and harmonics that might be generated due to an unstable power supply. This provides a near ideal electrical performance.

Standby or Offline and Line-Interactive UPS together contribute approximately 14-16 percent andOnline UPS, the balance amount by revenue of the total Indian UPS market

Total UPS Market: Industry Challenges (India), 2008-2014

27P1F6-27

Uneven Tax Structure, Issue of Entry Forms and Octroi in Some States

Taxes are not uniform in all the states in India. A few states such as West Bengal insist on entry forms for any goods entering the state, while other states such as Maharashtra charge octroi on goods entering selected cities in them. This results in delay in delivery of goods and also increased product prices. Vendors supplying pan-India orders (for a single customer) suffer in terms of payment delays, Liquidated Damage (LD) and others

Cheap Imports from China and Taiwan

China and Taiwan are the major countries for sourcing low price UPS systems. The cost of importing UPS for most participants works out cheaper than manufacturing in India (mostly for lower rating UPS – less than 10 kVA). Line Interactive and online UPS, especially up to 10kVA are mostly imported from China and Taiwan. This has resulted in only a few suppliers (WePPeripherals, Su-Kam, Microtek, Luminous and others) manufacturing less than 10kVA UPS systems in India.

Industry Challenges (Contd…)

28P1F6-27

Increasing Raw Material Prices and Manpower Costs

Raw material prices have increased drastically in the last 2-3 years apart from the sharp increase in battery prices (due to increase in lead prices). This has resulted in UPS suppliers struggling to maintain their margins

Underrated Sales of UPS by Some Participants

Some suppliers sell underrated UPS in the market to gain higher margins. This affects other suppliers in the market selling UPS as per their correct rating. This trend is prominent in the less than 1kVA UPS and to some extent in the 1-5kVA UPS power range

2.7 Market and Technology Trends

Market Trends

• The Indian UPS market has witnessed double-digit growth in the last two years and is projected to exhibit double-digit growth rates up to 2012. Post 2012, the market may not be able to sustain the double-digit growth as the growth of major end-user segments may slow down

• End users are gradually shifting from less than 1kVA range to the next higher power range (1 -5) kVA

• SOHO/SMEs, major end users of less than 1 kVA range UPS are gradually shifting from standalone UPS to small centralized UPS, automatically moving to the 1-5 and 5.1-20 kVA range

• Less than 1 kVA segment was historically dependent on the home segment and it is likely tocontinue to remain so

• Increased usage of laptop sales at the cost of desktop sales has affected the less than 1 kVA segment. Suppliers are countering this trend by focusing more on the smaller cities (tier 2 and tier 3) where mostly the desktops are sold these days

• A major chunk of less than 1 kVA UPS is imported from China and Taiwan. This trend is also observed in the 1-10 kVA online range but to a lesser extent

40P1F6-27

Market and Technology Trends (Contd…)

• Modular UPS systems are gradually gaining acceptance in the market primarily because of hot swapping features and the flexibility they offer in terms of redundancy

• The demand for more than 200 kVA power range, especially from the manufacturing sector is driving the sales for rotary UPS in India, affecting the static UPS market in the more than 200kVA power range

• The contribution of 20.1-60kVA, 60.1-200 kVA, and above 200 kVA power range is likely to increase to 13 percent, 22 percent, and 14 percent respectively of the total UPS revenue by 2014, from 11 percent, 18.7 percent, and 9 percent respectively in 2007 as a result of steady increase in demand from BFSI, telecom, IT/ITES sector and others

• The contribution of less than 1kVA, 1-5 kVA, and 5.1-20 kVA is likely to decrease to 11.3 percent, 18.5 percent, and 21.2 percent respectively, of the total UPS revenue by 2014 from 14.5 percent, 21 percent, and 25.8 percent respectively, in 2007

• 5.1-20 kVA is a competitive power range with both Indian as well as MNCs operating in this space. The competition is tough with shrinking margins. Indian UPS suppliers not having a major focus on the 20 kVA power range are expected to migrate to the rapidly growing more than 20 kVA range, to avoid the cutthroat competition and shrinking margins

• Suppliers, in order to meet end-users’ preference on reducing downtime, increased energy savings, and system efficiency, are making efforts to incorporate the same in their product offerings

41P1F6-27

Market and Technology Trends (Contd…)

• Some UPS suppliers are planning to replace the lead acid batteries by Ni-Cad or Lithium-ion batteries in the long run, since the lead acid battery cost is prohibitively high at present. Ni-Cad batteries have been in use for a long time but are not preferred by the suppliers

• To counter the increasing battery costs, suppliers are planning to launch solar powered UPS

42P1F6-27

Market and Technology Trends (Contd…)

Technology Trends

• Modular UPS systems are gradually gaining prominence and are replacing conventional UPS systems, primarily due to hot swapping features and the flexibility they offer in terms of redundancy
