It gives me immense pleasure to welcome you to Indofil Industries Ltd.
We at Indofil believe in the philosophy of a robust profitable growth resting on the solid foundation laid out on the principles of Transparency, Togetherness and Trust.
Transparency builds confidence which is critical for long term success. Togetherness ensures team work and lesser chances of committing errors and Trust ensures that everyone is committed towards a common goal.
These principles have helped us in bringing forth harmony amongst the employees which has helped in developing a culture that prioritizes people above everything else. There is no better testimony to this fact than the recent accolade in the Great Places to Work survey where we were amongst the 100 best companies to work for in INDIA & were recognized as the Industry’s best, ranking 5th in the manufacturing & production sector. This is a crowning glory for our efforts and we are now fully motivated to achieve our goal of becoming a billion dollar company by 2020.
It gives me great pleasure to announce that we have achieved 23% increase in Gross sales as compared to Last Year in first seven months of the financial year. Adding to this, our stellar performance in last 2 years has helped improve our rating to “CRISIL A”
This year, deficient monsoon and a long dry spell in INDIA, have resulted in low crop acreage and low yields. Further low product price (for Paddy) coupled with low yields and the resulting low farmer income has put enormous pressure on the industry. Uneven rains have also affected herbicide and insecticide usage in some states.
Despite this adverse market situation, Agro Domestic Business with its structured developmental strategies and planned positioning continues to outnumber the industry performance, as well its business plan.
For our Agro International Business, first half of the year has been extremely favourable. Volumes are up by 25% over plan.
A positive trend in global fungicide market has enabled us to capitalize and gain additional volumes. Latin America, Africa & Corporate Business have contributed the most to the increase in volume for Mancozeb Tech & 80WP. Australia, USA, Paraguay have contributed to increased volume of Mancozeb WG.
Our SPCD Business has also shown good profitability with cumulative gross profit in H1 exceeding Business Plan. SPCD division continues to report higher GP margin as compared to Business plan. To take our Specialty & Performance Chemicals Business to new heights, a well reputed Consultancy firm Bain & Company was engaged to prepare a full potential roadmap. Six building blocks have been identified namely KAM, Application Labs, Sales and Distribution, Product Portfolio, Export Strategy and Pricing. Joint Practice Sessions and Steering Committees have been set up for effective execution of the project.
On the manufacturing front, focus has been on maintaining highest EHS standard and improving process efficiencies. Now all our effluent parameters such as BOD,COD, pH, TSS are monitored online. We have also implemented online EHS Management system for incident reporting and investigation, ensuring legal compliances and health monitoring of employees
