MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:

The year under review was not only a difficult year for the Company, it was a challenging year for the Indian economy as well. The Indian economy substantially slowed down during 2011-12, as compared to the previous year. Overall GDP growth rate dropped from 8.4% in 2010-11 to 6.5% for the year 2011-12. The growth rate which had dropped down to 6.7% in 2008-09 was expected to rebound and be around 9% or more during 2011-12. However, contrary to expectation, with every passing month in 2011, it became more and more evident that the rate of growth was on the decline. Index of Industrial Production (IIP) growth declined from 8.2% in 2010-11 to 2.8% in 2011-12. Growth rate of eight core industries declined from 6.6% during 2010-11 to 4.4% in 2011-12. Diverse factors lead to this unforeseen down turn. The global factors like the Euro zone crisis, recession in Europe, sluggish growth rate in industrialized nations like USA, stagnation in Japan, political crisis in the Middle East also contributed to the slowdown. Such drastic reversal from the upward swing to global melt down and consequent weakening of India economy led to a general negative outlook and depressed market sentiments.

During 2011-12 the Rupee depreciated by over 14% against the US$, 13% against the Sterling Pound, 8% against the Euro and 15% against the Japanese Yen. The cascading effect of Rupee depreciation was sorely felt on the already high imported commodity prices. The Indian markets also saw a large decline in the in-flow of funds from the Foreign Institutional Investors partly due to the concerns over the

longer term impact of higher current account deficits and partly due to risk aversion to invest in volatile markets. The flight of capital by foreign investors was also influenced by the melt down in Europe. Sovereign debt problem of euro area weighs heavily on global recovery. Concern about sustainable solution to the sovereign debt problem and vulnerability of the banking sector still persist. Heightened risk aversion and the resultant slowing of capital flows will have a significant adverse impact on emerging and developing economies including India.

Spiraling oil prices, high inflation, rising interest rates severely dampened business sentiments thereby contributed to the slowdown. The year 2011-12 started with 9.7% inflation which touched double digits in September 2011 and thereafter declined to 7.7% in March 2012. The major factors contributing to such inflation were high prices of vegetables, eggs, meat and fish due to change in dietary pattern of rural households, increasing global commodity prices leading to higher cost of production and continuous high prices of crude oil.

OPERATIONS:

The factors which led to general negative outlook and depressed market sentiments affected the Company adversely. The margins of the Company remained under severe pressure during the year due to rising input costs, adverse foreign exchange scenario and weakening rupee, disturbances and labour unrest with major customers, fluctuating economic growth and fierce competition causing a loss of Rs. 722 million after tax.

The margins and profits are under pressure not only in the Company but the situation is more or less same with competitors and other Auto components supplier as well. Same is the scene with car manufacturers. The end customers are continuously demanding better features, higher specifications at lower cost in the new cars and in new models of the present cars. The margins are therefore under pressure with car manufacturers also. The car manufacturers in turn pass on this pressure to the components suppliers.

The problem was worst confounded due to labour unrest at Manesar plat of Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), which is our biggest customer. This severely disturbed production schedule of the Company putting inventory and imports out of sync with production. The Company faced challenges of erratic demand due to fluctuating economic scenario affecting growth in automobile sector during the year. It was therefore necessary to import more material & components and carry higher inventory to ensure 100% committed supply to the customers. This was necessary to retain market share. Even though these put pressure on profit margins and enhance working capital exposure, nevertheless are imperative to retain market share and customer confidence.

The auto components industry is facing the pressure of erratic economic growth. With the increase in competition, this pressure is likely to increase further in the coming years. The Company is therefore aiming to bring in more efficient, cost effective and newer technology products where price realization could be better.

This trend augur well for Haridwar factory of your Company.

NEW FACTORY AT BANGALORE

Your Company will set up a new factory at Bangalore during 2012-13. This proposed factory at Bangalore will cater to the requirements of two wheelers manufacturers in southern India and mainly supply to Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India Pvt. Ltd. (HMSI) which is one of the main customers for two wheelers products of the Company. HMSI plans to put two plants in South. To secure HMSI growing business in South, in the presence of strong competition, the company has decided to establish this new factory. The Company is in process of taking suitable premises on lease at Bangalore to set up the Factory.

SMALL MOTOR BUSINESS

Pursuant to the Special Resolution passed by the Shareholders of the Company in terms of the provisions of Section 293(1) (a), of the Companies Act, 1956, under postal ballot system, the Company has sold Small Motor Business i.e Front/ Rear Wiper, Power Window Motors, Blower Motors, Electric Fan Motors and Engine Cooling Modules to DENSO Haryana Private Limited, a DENSO group company, on a going concern basis, by way of slump sale. The consideration for the sale on a slump sale basis is Rs. 1,477 million, out of which 90% amount i.e. Rs. 1,329 million has been received on signing the agreement and balance 10% will be received on closing date, along with the adjustments on account of changes in working capital position and additional capital investment, relatable to Small Motor Business up to the closing date, which is scheduled to be in October 2012.

The Company’s Electrical Parts Business for four wheeler segment i.e Alternator and Starter and Electrical Parts Business for two wheeler segment i.e CDI and Magneto hold the key to growth and profitability in future. Alternator/ Starter (in case of four wheelers) and CDI/ Magneto (in case of two-wheelers) businesses constitute the core businesses of the Company since they contribute to vehicle engine performance by optimizing

fuel cost and reducing emissions. With increased fuel costs and regulatory drive towards reduction in emissions, and with the DENSO’s inherent strengths in technical innovation, these two businesses are expected to be the growth engine for Company’s success. Accordingly, the Company has decided to focus and concentrate on these two businesses (i.e. Alternator/ Starter and CDI/ Magneto businesses). From an operational perspective also, the transfer of Small Motor Business would improve capacities within the existing manufacturing facility, which would be used for expansion and growth of other two businesses.

OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS:

Though there are projections of good growth of the Indian car and two wheelers market in the medium to long term based on growth in household income of burgeoning middleclass in India, there are challenges also for the industry. The market will be subject to economic cycles and its sensitivity to fuel prices and interest rates, can cause huge fluctuations. These growth prospects will lure more local and international players, the competition will intensify and predictability of volumes and product mix will be increasingly challenged.

The vehicle manufacturers expect component industry to improve scalability and develop a reliable and robust manufacturing foundation for growth. To deliver global levels of technology and quality products, the vehicle manufacturers require their suppliers to be able to localize the systems or components supplied by them. The balance will have to be imported and to that extent vehicle manufacturers and component suppliers will be exposed to foreign exchange movements and higher costs. The ability to localize components and systems will open up vast opportunities for component suppliers and to the extent the component suppliers depend on imports, they will be exposed to ever increasing threat of exchange rate fluctuations. The Company is making constant endeavors for localization of various parts and components and identifying cost effective ways of manufacturing them in-house or through vendors.

The other threat or growth bottleneck to which component manufacturers are exposed is in the area of human resources. Good talent is critical for technology absorption, quality manufacturing and cost management. However growth and emerging opportunities in other sectors of Indian economy is making this vital resource scarcer day by day.

The prevalent governance slowdown caused by delayed response of the Government machinery to the vital issues requiring immediate attention and quick disposal remains an area of concern. Fiscal Deficit has continued to expand and is estimated to cross 5.9% of GDP by analysts, contrary to budget estimates of 4.6%. Continually high oil prices, the possibility of having to import coal at higher-than estimated rates to meet the rising power gap and the continuing subsidy burdens do not augur well for the economy.

SEGMENT WISE PERFORMANCE:

The Company’s operating business is organized and managed according to the nature of product, with single Primary Reportable Segment comprising of manufacturing and supply of electrical automotive components.

OUTLOOK:

Market Survey and current trends indicate strong possibilities of high growth rate in automotive market in coming years. However presently the automobile industry is faced with the challenging times with uncertainties on the demand side in coming months, which hopefully is only a short term phenomenon. The total automobile market is expected to grow by double digits annually for the next 5 years. India is emerging as a small car hub in the Asia Pacific region. This is evident from the fact that almost all the major international automobile manufacturers have registered their presence in India and have started manufacturing small cars in this country. These companies are either setting up or expanding their existing manufacturing base not only to enter the domestic market but also for exports. India is gradually becoming a major manufacturing base for export of passenger cars as well as other utility vehicles. Recession in the industrialized nations, stagnation in Japan and China and a relatively large domestic market is making India a much more attractive destination. It is forecast that by 2020 India would be one of the top five automobile manufacturing countries in the world. These positive developments in the automobile sector would augur well for the auto component industry and your company.

Customer trends indicate that the local design & development as well as expansion of production facilities is moving towards South & Mid West areas of India. It is expected that fuel price parity shall see higher growth rate in diesel based vehicles. The Competition will become intense and adopt strategy of price differentiation to gain market share. Awareness and regulation on fuel efficiency will become a big trend in India in the next few years as it helps both the economy and the environment. The Company is conscious of these developments and poised to take advantage of these trends. Setting up a factory in Bangalore and decision to focus on Alternator/ Starter (in case of four wheelers) and CDI/ Magneto (in case of two-wheelers) businesses, which contribute to vehicle engine performance by optimizing fuel cost and reducing emissions, are the steps in that direction. The Company has chalked out mid term plan up to year 2015 and has targeted CAGR of 21% in two businesses Alternator/ Starter as well as CDI/ Magneto.

The Company has two manufacturing plants with three warehousing locations and a central spares parts division (CSPD). The Company is also engaged in small motors business in India which the Company is in process of discontinuing (Refer Note 40). The Company is a public limited company and is listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), Delhi Stock Exchange Association Ltd. and the Madras Stock Exchange (MSE).

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

1) BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in India under the historical cost convention on accrual basis. These financial statements have been prepared to comply in all material aspects with the accounting standards notified under Section 211(3C) [Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, as amended] and the other relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956.

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company’s normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule VI to the Companies Act, 1956. Based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current – non-current classification of assets and liabilities.

2) TANGIBLE ASSETS:

Fixed assets are stated at cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation. Acquisition cost includes taxes, duties, freight, insurance and other incidental expenses related to acquisition and installation and are net of CENVAT credits, where applicable. Revenue expenses incidental and related to projects are capitalised along with the related fixed assets, where appropriate.

3) DEPRECIATION:

Depreciation on fixed assets is provided using the straight-line method based on useful lives of assets as estimated by the management. Depreciation is charged on a pro-rata basis for assets purchased / sold during the year. The management’s estimate of useful lives for the various fixed assets is given below, which is higher than the rates prescribed under Schedule XIV of Companies Act, 1956:

Buildings 20 years

Plant and Machinery

- Jigs and Tools 5 years

- Others 7 years

Computers 3 years

Furniture and Fixtures 5 years

Vehicles 5 years

Leasehold land is amortised over the period of lease.

Individual assets costing less than ` 5,000 are depreciated in full in the year of purchase.

4) REVENUE RECOGNITION:

Revenue from the sale of products is recognised upon transfer of substantial risk and rewards of ownership to the customers, and is net of sales tax, where applicable, but inclusive of excise duty. Interest income on fixed deposits is recognized on a time proportion basis.

5) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS:

Transactions in foreign currency are accounted for at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of transactions.

Exchange differences arising on foreign currency transactions settled during the year are recognised in the statement of profit and loss for the year. All monetary items denominated in foreign currency are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. The resultant exchange differences are recognised in the statement of profit and loss for the year.

The premium or discount arising at the inception of forward exchange contracts, entered into to hedge the foreign currency risk of existing assets and liabilities, is amortized as expense or income over the life of the contract. Exchange differences on such contracts are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which the exchange rates change. Any profit or loss arising on cancellation or renewal of forward exchange contract is recognized as income or as expense for the year.

10) TAX EXPENSE:

Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. The provision for income tax is determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

The Company provides for deferred tax based on the tax effect of timing differences resulting from the recognition of items in the financial statements and in estimating its current income tax provision. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognised in the statement of profit and loss using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets on unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward losses, if any, are recognised only if there is virtual certainty that such deferred tax assets can be realized against future taxable profits. In all other cases, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is a reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax asset can be realised.

32

Minimum alternative tax (MAT) credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay income tax higher than that computed under MAT, during the period that MAT is permitted to be set off under the Income Tax Act, 1961 (specified period). In the year, in which the MAT credit becomes eligible to be recognised as an asset in accordance with the recommendations contained in the Guidance Note issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), the said asset is created by way of a credit to the statement of profit and loss and shown as MAT credit entitlement. The Company reviews the same at each balance sheet date and writes down the carrying amount of MAT credit entitlement to the extent there is no longer convincing evidence to the effect that the Company will pay income tax higher than MAT during the specified period.

11) BORROWING COSTS:

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

12) EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS):

In determining earnings per share, the Company considers the net profit after tax and includes the post tax effect of extra ordinary/exceptional item, if any. Basic earning per share is computed by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year and dilutive equity equivalent shares outstanding at the year end, except where the results would be anti dilutive.

13) INTANGIBLE ASSETS:

Intangible assets are recognised if it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and cost of the asset can be measured reliably in accordance with Accounting Standard – 26, on ‘Intangible Assets’.

Intangible assets, if any, are amortised on straight-line basis over their useful lives determined on the basis of expected future economic benefits. The amortization period and method is reviewed at the end of each financial year.

14) IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS:

At each balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the statement of profit and loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

15) LEASES:

For operating leases, rental income and expense is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern of the Company’s benefit.

16) PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Provisions required to settle are reviewed regularly and are adjusted where necessary to reflect the current best estimates of the obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that probably will not require an outflow of resources or where a reliable estimate of obligation cannot be made.

17) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS:

The Company use derivative financial instruments such as forward exchange contracts and swap arrangements to hedge its risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations. The foreign exchange contracts, if any, other than those covered under AS 11, entered for non speculative purposes, including the underlying hedged items, are valued on the basis of a fair value on marked to market basis and any loss on valuation is recognized in the statement of profit and loss, on a portfolio basis. Any gain arising on this valuation is not recognized by the Company in line with the principle of prudence.

18) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:

In the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, demand deposits with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
