GLOBAL AND INDIAN ECONOMIC SCENARIO

Uncertainty continues to cloud the shape and pace of global

economic recovery. Just as the US seemed to be emerging from its worst recession since the Great Depression, Europe finds itself in the midst of a major crisis. Private spending in advanced economies continues to be constrained and inflation remains generally subdued, making it likely that fiscal and monetary stimuli in these economies will continue for an extended period. Emerging market economies, on the other hand, seem to be significantly ahead on the recovery path, but some of them are also facing inflationary pressures. This has promoted central banks in some of these countries to begin phasing out their accommodative monetary policies.

In India, the economic recovery, which began around the second quarter of 2009-10, has since shown sustained improvement. Industrial recovery has become more broad-based and is expected to continue in the wake of rising domestic and external demand. Reversing a nearly year long decline, exports and imports have both grown since November 2009. Flow of credit from both bank and non-bank sources has picked up and overall business sentiment has turned distinctively positive. Indias GDP Growth in 2009-10 has been estimated at 7.4%, driven by growth in the industrial and services sectors. The abundance of liquidity in the system ensured that interest rates remained reasonable for most part. The fiscal deficit for 2009-10 stood at 6.6% of GDP, slightly below the full years estimated of 6.7%. In the Budget for 2010-11, the fiscal deficit for FY 2011 has been estimated at 5.5% of GDP, a reduction of 1.2% from last years estimate. However, the windfall mobilization through the recent 3G Licences in Telecom Sector further reduce the deficit. The developments on the inflation front are, however, far from encouraging. The wholesale price index (WPI) inflation climbed steeply from 1.5% in October 2009 to 10.2% by May 2010.

PERFORMANCE

The company has achieved a record sales turnover of Rs 325.36 Crore registering a growth of 17.7% per cent. Profit before tax of stood at Rs.22.52 crore and profit after tax at Rs. 15.75 crore during the year as against Rs.15.96 crore and 11.08 crore respectively in the previous year.

Automobile sector in India was one of the major beneficiaries of the fiscal stimulus package unleashed by the Indian Government in the aftermath of a Global Financial Crisis. Demand for the Automobiles - particularly the two-wheeler segment ‘remained’ pretty buoyant throughout the year. Your companys principal customer Hero Honda continues to straddle two-wheeler industry in India and sets new benchmark of excellence in production, quality, customer satisfaction year-after-year.
