IIPM Press Release :- A ‘bitter’ tale of two companies….

IIPM PUBLICATION
And today, when Britannia has got back the Tiger brand (which contributed 30% of its annual revenues of Rs.17.65 billion in 2005-06), does the situation get any better? The company is barely recovering from the impact of aggressive competition, especially ITC with its Sunfeast range. Sumeet Budhraja, FMCG Analyst, Edelweiss Securities Pvt. Ltd. told B&E, “...of course the way ITC is catching up the market, it can be a problem for Britannia in future.” Britannia’s recent financials do indicate bottomline pressures, which in turn can be attributed to rising commodity prices and the battle for defending market share. Profits for Britannia have dropped by 1.6% during 2006 to touch Rs.1.46 billion and by a spine-chilling 51.5% for the quarter-ended September 30, 2006, to Rs.212 million as compared to 2005. And problems with Danone don’t seem to cease! Danone’s recent plans to buy off a 5% stake in bionutrients company Avesthagen on November 24, 2006, have been blocked by the Wadias, who cite it as a breach of contract. Speculations are already rife that the relationship is now on the rocks.

For some, the miseries don't end with death...

IIPM BEST MBA INSTITUTE
One death begets another and it's one death too many for yet another death. It's just another sordid saga, a forgotten sub plot in the tragicomic unfinished epic called India. In a strange cycle of death, dead cattle carrying traces of a hitherto popular veterinary drug become lethal agents of death for scavengers like the White-backed Vultures, which with its worse than a dodo fall in numbers can't do enough to help the Parsis in their final hour.

Zoroastrians, for spiritual purposes, aren’t allowed to bury or burn their dead. The bodies of those who have passed on are considered nasu (unclean) and are thus exposed to the raging sun along with swarming vultures that circle overhead in the Towers of Silence (or dokhma). A mute witness to this age-old tradition, the spires are raising some stink with not only those outside the fold of Zoroastrians, but also within. This “final act of charity” finds itself in grave danger with growing threat to the vulture population, courtesy spiraling pollution, urban development and the use of Diclofenac.

Not to forget the Godrej group…

IIPM PUBLICATION
Not to forget the Godrej group which has planned to spin-off its non-core areas, Dabur India group which is increasing its focus on core areas of food products and FMCG and the Wadia group which recently forayed ino the aviation industry which further strengthens the group. Many family-run Indian businesses have also undergone financial restructuring – by lowering of debt-to-equity ratio to levels below 10% – thus reducing their risks and shielding itself against the threat of hostile takeovers by stronger multinationals. The Chennaibased Murugappa group is also an example of change. Being counted among the largest business groups in India, postliberalization, it realigned its policy and professionalised its organization. A unique case in point is the Bajaj group which showed to the nation how planned succession should be like.

...and we’ll tell you how they’ve failed in that; Dalmias flounder regrettably

IIPM BEST MBA INSTITUTE
Being the pioneer or a trend-setter is not always a matter of pride. Take a look at Dalmia Group and you’d vouch for the truth. Incorporating the group in 1932, founder Ram Krishna Dalmia sparked-off the trend of family feuds in Independent India by first splitting-off with the Jains in 1952. Then followed the all-critical split within the family where the kingdom was divided amongst Ram Krishna’s seven sons in 1983. Today, the only entity that has gained substantial proportion is the legacy that was passed on to his son Vishnu Hari Dalmia, which was further passed on to his sons Sanjay Dalmia and Anurag Dalmia. The group’s flagship businesses are GHCL Ltd. (which has textiles, retail and soda-ash production) and GTC Industries (which manufactures cigarettes).

IIPM : Anything but ‘just out of the Blue’!

IIPM PUBLICATION
In the zeal to progress and evolve, which has won Pinxit Blue an amazing list of clients and a whopping growth of 90% in a span of two years ranging from 2004 to 2006 – more than the average industry growth rate during this period. What sets this one apart is its way of functioning. Pinxit Blue believes in collaborating with clients to help them fully understand the impact of emerging products, markets and technologies. “As the saying goes, ‘50% of my advertising is wasted, the trouble is, I don’t know which half’. So we help our client skip that 50% and give him optimum results from the remaining 50%,” says Nishigandh. And he quickly adds, “After all, a client’s growth is our growth.”

We want to reach all the segments of textile and various demographic of customers...

IIPM BEST MBA INSTITUTE
For example, we have Amitabh Bachchan for Reid & Taylor and Sushmita Sen for Carmichael House. Till now, we have been able to associate the brand with customers well. In future also, we plan to rope in more such celebrities whom we think fit our brands. And at the same time, we would like to associate with such events that match with our brand.” So it is ‘no surprise’ that last year Reid & Taylor sponsored InstaSnooker Tournament 2005, in Mumbai. Apart from banking on the celebrity sheen and events, the company is now going great guns in opening retail outlets. Carmichael House has recently opened up exorbitant twenty-four new stores and has set a stupendous turnover target of Rs.1 billion by the end of this fiscal year. It also plans exports to the US and UK which are the major markets.
