1.05 (1.88%) | Chairman's Speech (Triveni Turbine) | Year : Mar '12 |
Dear Shareholders, This is the first full year of reporting of the performance of your Company post demerger of the turbines business from Triveni Engineering & Industries Limited. In October 2011, our shares were listed and the trading started in both the Bombay Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange. In spite of the volatile economic environment, in both the domestic and global markets, I am pleased to say that by staying focused on our strategies, we have successfully navigated these challenging times and recorded an encouraging result in the fiscal year 2012. With revenues of Rs 6.32 billion and an outstanding order book of around Rs 5 billion, we have expanded our market and improved the product mix through the introduction of new competitive products. During the year, the domestic market shrunk by over 40%, and even under such a situation, Triveni Turbine Limited (TTL) retained its dominant market share with similar margins. The Company''s aggressive focus on the international market has started yielding good results with export order booking going up by 39% year on year. We have expanded our geographic reach from South East Asia to the developed markets in Europe and are concentrating on the biomass and waste to energy segments which are less prone to economic cycles. The Company''s focus on the high margin aftermarket business continued during the year with a growth of 8% over the previous year even though most customers were postponing ordering insurance spares. The CAGR growth for this segment has been 22% during the past five years. We received many breakthrough orders for the refurbishment of larger turbines. This will give us the necessary prequalification for this segment and augurs well for business growth in the coming years. We continue our thrust on Research & Development, which shall be the pivot for sustaining future growth in revenue and profitability. During the year under review, many new models were developed and introduced into the market to meet the changing requirements of our customers. The Company is expanding the protection of its intellectual property, under all the categories such as Design, Patents, Copyrights and Trademarks. Our new higher MW, high-temperature and high-pressure turbines are helping the Company to expand the market globally. Performance of our subsidiary, GE Triveni Limited (GETL), has been encouraging. We are executing the first order and remain encouraged with a promising pipeline of enquiries. GETL is receiving strong sales support from the GE team in its key markets of South East Asia, Europe and America. While the Company is only completing its second year as an independent entity, our steam turbine business has had a strong market leadership for over 30 years. The key to our success remains in the unique combination of innovation and cost competitiveness which distinguishes us from our competitors. We will continue to leverage our strengths and competitive advantages in Research & Development, supply chain and value engineering, manufacturing excellence and a customer centric approach. We believe this gives us an excellent position for sustained performance in today''s demanding and dynamic market environment. I thank you all for your support and wish to express my gratitude to all our customers, business partners and stakeholders for the confidence they have shown in the Company. With Best Regards, Dhruv M. Sawhney Chairman and Managing Director |
