The last few years have seen Nakoda reinforce the foundation of its business. It has established strong operational capabilities. It gives me great pleasure to share with you through this Annual Report, the results and progress of the company during the past year. The company performance has been encouraging in the Financial Year 2010 despite the challenges arising out of the global economic meltdown. We have achieved a robust growth in financial results for the year ending December 31, 2010. The sales for the year were Rs.1339 cr. and profit after tax stood at over Rs. 33 cr. India is at an inflection point of sustained growth, and so is Nakoda. With well differentiated products, and a healthy balance sheet, Nakoda has embarked on a journey of accelerated growth. With the intention of doubling its business over the next 3-4 years, it has charted a 3-pronged business strategy. - Grow the core business - Extend the core business - Extend beyond the core Nakoda occupies a strong position in manufacturing POY/FDY and its endeavor is to continue to further consolidate its strength. As a part of its strategy to grow the core business, it has enhanced its spinning capacity from 50,000 MTPA to 1,00,000 MTPA, and Texturising capacity from 1070 MTPA to 30,000 MTPA. Nakoda has extended its core business by implementing a Continuous Polymerisation (CP) Plant as backward integration with capacity of 1,40,000 MTPA. As a major step towards extending beyond the core, Nakoda identified Renewable Energy as an exciting sector and invested in wind power projects at Tamilnadu & M.P. It entered with a 6.75 MW wind mill project at Tamil Nadu and enthused by considerable success, it has expanded its wind mill capacity to 12 MW by putting up another wind mill project of 5.25 MW in Madhya Pradesh. Nakoda also successfully extended beyond the boundaries, and its South Korean subsidiary Indo Korean Petrochem Limited commenced production during September 2010 The Korean CP Plant has a capacity of 1,00,000 MTPA. Mr. P. P. Vora and Mr. P. J. Shah have joined Nakoda Board as Non executive Independent Directors. Nakoda will benefit immensely from their expert knowledge& vast experience. Nakoda issued 2,000,000 GDRs at a price of USD 12.125 per GDR representing 60,000,000 Underlying equity shares of Rs.5/- each at a price of Rs.18/- per share including share premium of Rs.13/- per share. GDRs are listed on Luxembourg Stock Exchange and Underlying equity shares are listed on BSE. The company is positioned to stay on the growth track backed by its financial strengths. Our performance in the year 2010 enhances our confidence that we are well prepared for an increasingly competitive environment and reinforces our ability to deliver value products efficiently. In the coming year we will strive to maintain our growth momentum by focusing on qualitative growth. Let me conclude by thanking all our people, sub contractors, banks and other stake holders for their support during the year, and also thank you for your support as a shareholder. I look forward to further develop our business and reach new heights. Sincerely B. G. Jain CMD |
