COMPANY PERFORMANCE
Due to declining Global market, excess capacity and ever increasing prices of raw
materials, the sales & profits of the Company plummeted on a regular basis and at the
end of financial year 2011-12, the entire net worth stand eroded.
i) The market and demand for color picture tubes in India remained subdued throughout
the year. The efforts of the Management to revive the manufacturing activities did not
yield any result, thus all the production lines of the Company remain closed during the
financial year under review.
ii) The net loss during the year under review was Rs. 3336.67 lacs as compared to Rs.
7153.91 lacs of the previous financial year.
iii) Due to continuous decline in Global market of CRT based Picture tubes has resulted
into fall in its sale price. This has lead to losses incurred by company on year to year
basis, by the end of Financial year ending 31st March, 2012, entire net worth
of the company was eroded.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
Even though, the world major economy(ies) are in recession trend however, the Indian
Economy is consistently registering growth of more than 5% over the last couple of years.
It is expected that the steady economic growth will continue to provide consumers with
higher disposable income, which would result in surge in the demand for consumer
appliances. The ever growing Indian Middle Class is a major contributor to the growth of
Indian economy. They are instrumental in driving the demand for various consumer
electronic devices including televisions.
In addition to the Indian Middle Class, a majority of Indian population lives in
villages and small towns, where the standard of living and disposable income is lower than
that of the population living in Metros and Tier I & H Cities. The level of
penetration of electronic industries in villages and small towns are quite low (well below
world average) due to various factors including level of disposalable income and
availability of electricity. Over a period of time with the efforts of the Government the
issue of availability of electricity and other infrastructure have greatly improved along
side the quantum of income. This will provide opportunities for companies to expand their
reach.
The volume in Indian consumer durable segment includes large chunk of color televisions
(traditional CRT based Televisions) and panel based televisions.
The Indian television market is highly under penetrated compared to other Counties and
world average. As per the data of Economic Intelligence Unit, 2013 the penetration of
color television is only in 179 per 1000 population.
Demand for CRT based televisions is still there amongst populations living in villages
and small towns and the same will continue to be there for some more years. However, due
to unfriendly business scenario all the manufacturers in the organized sector into
manufacturing color picture tube based televisions have either discontinued or scaled down
the manufacturing over the last 2/3 years. This has resulted in shutting off of
manufacturing process of color picture tubes as well, a vital component in the
manufacturing of CRTs.
Most of the color televisions being manufactured in India at current juncture are
primarily by unorganized sector and they depend heavily on imported equipments and parts
coming from China, Thailand etc or equipments & parts retrieved from old televisions
sets.
The market for CRT Color TV in India was in the range of 13/15 million units till 3/4
years back. At present, only in India, the population of total CRT TV sets would be in the
range of 100 millions in numbers.
Typically, the life of a CRT Color TV is approximately 8000 hours, which can safely be
translated in to a life of 7/8 years.
The market scenario drastically changed with the advent of new technologies and LCD TVs
made a inroad into the households in India, However, despite growing demand of LCD based
televisions, CRT based televisions are still being in demand in India and they are
continued to be bought & sold. With the absence of organized players, the
manufacturing, refurbishing of CRT based Color TV has become a cottage industry, with
unorganized players in the market with very small exposures and limited resources.
Primarily, these players are dealing with old TV sets, wherein the old TV sets are being
purchased, the picture tubes get reconditioned/refurbished and few parts being replaced.
This process makes the old TV set as good as new with a life of approximately 7/8 years
again. At present, the TV market for refurbishing of old TVs appears to be about 2.5
million (in numbers) per annum, primarily of 14" picture tubes. In the absence of
organized player, the market is yet to be fully explored/ exploited.
The Company intends to enter into this market and fill up the vacuum created due to the
absence of organized player(s) subject approval of Statutory Authorities and all
Stakeholders.
STATUS OF SICKNESS UNDER BIFR
As reported in earlier year, on account of continuous losses, the net-worth of the
company was fully eroded at the end of the financial year 31st March, 2012.
Accordingly, Company made a reference to the Board for Industrial and Financial
Reconstruction (BIFR) as required under the provisions of section 15(1) of Sick Industrial
