FUTURE PROSPECTS:
In a highly competitive market scenario in the consumer market and the economic down trend, the consumer goods industry in particular will resort to heavy media spending and additional expenditure on promotions to maintain the growth momentum. The recent devaluation of the rupee will raise the cost of inputs and in the current economic situation, make it difficult to adjust selling prices thus shrinking margins, making it more challenging than ever to balance the investments in advertising and promotions for existing as well as new products. Our existing products continue to grow, fuelled by timely re-launches. New products that have been launched, such as Colgate Gel & Palmolive Natural Soap, will be instrumental in helping us gain an edge over competition in terms of having a diverse portfolio and having more to offer to the consumer. In addition, the company has drawn up plans for the launch of new products to achieve accelerated growth of business volumes and profits. Import duties for a number of raw materials used for the local manufacture of detergents are still at 35% whereas duties on finished detergents is also 35% and duties on detergents imported in bulk is 25%. Additionally, Central Excise Duty on imported finished goods such as detergents is levied on landed cost, whereas Central Excise Duty on locally manufactured detergents is levied on retail prices. These anomalies are unfortunately promoting the import of finished products at the expense of local manufacture. We are approaching the Tariff Commission once again to rectify these anomalies and sincerely hope that the correction will come about soon.
