Review of Operations

During the year under review, your Company has achieved a gross turnover of Rs. 7295.39 Lakhs as compared to Rs. 7035.09 Lakhs during the previous financial year. Inspite of slight increase in the turnover, the Net Profit has come down to Rs. 323.47 lakhs from Rs. 673.23 lakhs. This was mainly due to the reduction in selling prices of the products, increased competition and higher interest costs.

To achieve forward integration and to reduce the dependency on outside suppliers for End Fittings, which is crucial for manufacture of Insulators, the Company has set up a foundry in its manufacturing unit no. 2 at Plot No. 8, IDA, Gaddapotharam Village, Jinnaram Mandal, Medak District. The Management is working to bring this foundry into operation by April, 2012. When the foundry becomes fully operational, the company would be having all the facilities (end to end) under one roof and any excess production from this foundry could also be sold, which will give a contribution to the bottom line.

Surge Arrestors

As informed to the Members in the previous annual report, the Company sold a small quantity of this product during the year under review. The Company is expecting to increase the volume of this product during the years to come.

Solid Core Insulators

Substation Equipments like Solid Core and Hollow Core insulators are presently being manufactured by the other players in the market with Porcelain material which has certain disadvantages like causing heavy losses to the transmission sector, low level of resistance to bad weather conditions, frequent maintenance, etc.

With a view to expand the operations in this area and to offer high quality product, the Management is proposing to manufacture Solid Core Insulators. The company has already completed feasibility study and the in-house R&D is working on this Project with an aim to commence the commercial production of Solid core Insulators during the current financial year. Keeping in view the existing market for this product and the advantages that the product is having, the Management is confident that once the commercial production commences, it will further improve the financial performance of the Company in the years to come. After successful commencement of commercial production of this product, the Company is planning to go for the production of hollow core insulators, which may take one more year.

High Voltage Insulators

Your Management is happy to inform that with the objective to manufacture high voltage insulators (which are more profitable), the Company had entered into a Technical Collaboration Agreement with a reputed foreign company (Technology Provider). This collaboration consists of transfer of technological details for the manufacture of Silicon Rubber Polymer Insulators from and above 400KV to 1100 KV of AC and DC of all combinations of mechanical-strengths as may be required by your Company. The Technology Provider will offer activation or installation support, including assisting with the implementation of any Licensor software, diagrams or technological upgradation, wherever applicable. Once the remaining formalities are over, your Management is of the opinion that the Company would be in a position to commence commercial production of high voltage insulators and thereby increase the profitability of the company.

Dividend

Keeping in view the funds requirement for reduction of interest costs, expansion and diversifications plans of the Company, your Directors have recommended a dividend of Rs. 0.20 (i.e. 5%) per equity share of Rs. 4/- each for the year ended 31st March 2011. The payment of dividend, if approved by the Shareholders at the ensuing Annual General Meeting, will entail an outflow of Rs. 83,86,786 inclusive of Corporate Dividend Tax.
