Case Study Good Morning, Ladies and gentlemen. It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 62nd Annual General meeting of your company. The 1996 97 Annual Accounts ar e with you but before we get down to discussing it and responding to your questi ons and observations, may I take this opportunity to say a few words. Indian Economic Scenario When we met twelve months ago, I had hoped that I would have a more cheerful pic ture to paint for the country this year. The General Elections were over and alt hough no political party had secured a majority, the mere cobbling together of a United Front Government with the support of the Congress party had given a flic ker of hope that political wisdom and the fear of facing the electorate soon aga in would allow a longer and more stable tenure to the United Front Government an d keep the wheels of government moving. Unfortunately, this was not to be. Polit ical gamesmanship took precedence over other national priorities and we are back again to another round of elections, their results of which only astrologers an d political pundits dare predict. As a consequence, we have lost two valuable ye ars to consolidate and carry forward the Reforms. And given the political uncert ainty, even the Finance Minister s Dream Budget along with the easing of credit and interest rates failed to kick-start the industrial revival. To add to the turmoi l, the Asian currency crisis and the stock market crash in the latter half of 19 97 has given further ammunition to carry on the debate to those not comfortable with the reforms and movement towards a free market economy. In the meantime, with the central government budget largely absorbed by doles an d subsidies and oversized bureaucracy, there is precious little left to invest i n infrastructure and social development. With power shortages, choked ports, pat hetic state of roadways and railways looming on the horizon and crying out for i mmediate investments and proper management, the country and its people are havin g to pay a heavy price for this inaction and prevarication. It is time that we l earnt to segregate politics from economic necessities. Even one billion strong n ation cannot reach the moon by holding hands. It will need the thrust to break t hrough the Earth s gravitational pull. One must stop managing the issues of the tw enty first century with the mindset of the 19th century. In the interest of the country and India incorporated, let by gones by bygones and let us concentrate o n the present and improving the future rater that harping on the past. The only way to provide a better future for the have-nots is by the creation of National wealth. What therefore really matters is what investment does to create more inc ome and more employment, rather that who provides it or where it comes from. Performance Review With your Company s business closely linked with and largely dependent on industri al activity in the country, it performance of necessity reflects the state of in dustrial slowdown, particularly in the Steel & Fabrication sectors, resulting in reduced off take of all our major products. The margins too came under pressure with increased competitive activity in a stagnant market. Besides, both gases a nd healthcare business are adversely affected by the closure of your company s Del hi Unit at Kirtinagar from end November 1996, following the Hon ble Supreme Court s order of 8th July 1996. It is estimated that this alone resulted in a loss of Rs . 88 million in turnover and Rs.24 million I operating profit. In addition, volu ntary separation payments were higher than the previous year by Rs. 46 million, of which Mrs. Million were as a result of voluntary separation payments to Delhi employees alone. Consequently, whilst turnover at Rs. 2339 million increased by 4% over the previ ous year, the operating profit (before depreciation, interest, taxation and extr

aordinary income) at Rs. 319 million and net profit after taxation at a little o ver Rs. 84 million, declined by 17.6% and 37.8% respectively. Future Prospects Having regard to the present economic scenario in Asia and the political uncerta inty and industrial slow done in the country, the prospects in the current year (1997/98) appear to be no better and are expected to show an upturn in the follo wing year. However, there is a silver lining. The speed of progress on all the n 3ew pr4oj3e4cts won by your company in the past few years in a cause for satisfa ction and gives praise off a steady income steam, which the commissioning of the projects will ensure. Your company s results will also benefit in the future with the commissioning of the Jamshedpur plant build for Tate Steel. This plant, apa rt from supplying the bulk of its production to Tata Steel, will release for sal e in the merchant market a large quantity of low cost products. Despite the somewhat subdued performance of this year, your company is well pose d for growth. The turnaround / consolidation phase successfully completed the pr iority is now to grow through protection and expansion of your company s market sh are in its entire product range by being close to its marketplace. Amount the in itiatives already taken in this context are the commissioning of two Liquid Comp ressing Stations in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal, both markets of promise. More su ch facilities will be opened in the current financial year. Right Issue I am pleased to advise that the rights Issue vide letter of offer dated 11 July 1997 was satisfactorily completed and 21,814,107 new ordinary shares were allott ed on 22 September 1997 to the members on Right Basis in terms of the resolution passed by the members at the General Meeting held on 25th April 1997. The funds so raised are being utilized for the purposes mentioned in the letter of offer. As a result of this rights issue, the issued and subscribed capital of your com pany now stands at Rs. 490,842,230 and the reserves and surplus at Rs. 2,076,618 ,000. Dividend Considering the profits for the year, the expanded capital base and future econo mic scenario, your directors have recommended a dividend of Rs. 2 per share (20% ) and pro rata on the Rights shares allotted on 22 September 1997. As the compan y is now required to bear the tax on this divided, the shareholders will be plea sed to not that this divided will be net of tax in their hands. Healthcare Business You are aware of the BOC Group s decision to seek a purchaser5 for its global omed a business, as it believes that the Health care business would develop better as a part of a larger Healthcare business. In the absence of likely future support from the Group, your company, too, proposes to seek satisfactory divestment of this business and your Directors will approach you, once a suitable purchaser ha s been identified. The decision of the BOC group plc to divest its ohmeda Health care business provides an opportunity for your company to concentrate all its en ergies, resources and skills on its core business of Industrial and Medical gase s and cryogenic engineering. Board Changes Let me now advise you of some changes in your Board of Directors. You will recal l that Mr. Shashi S Prasad was elevated to the position of Vice Chairman & Manag ing Director w.e.f.31 Jan. 1997, in recognition of his leadership of your compan

y since he took over as Managing Director in1989. As a part of planned successio n, he will step down as Managing Director at the conclusion of this meeting, but will continue on the Board as Vice Chairman in an executive capacity, thereby m aking available his vast knowledge and experience of the Gases Industry to ensur e a smoother transition. Please join me in thanking Mr. Prasad for his valuable contribution to your company it its turnaround and consolidation phase. I take this opportunity to welcome Mr. Raman Pandya who joined in your Board on 01 Jan. 1998 as Managing Director. Mr. Pandya brings to your company a wealth of knowledge and experience. Having worked in leading companies in senior position s. I am sure that all of you will extend your fullest support to Mr. Pandya as h e leads BOC India further along the path of growth, expansion and prosperity I also welcome on your Mr. Gregory Leo Sedgwick who has considerable internation al experience of the gases business. I am ensure we will benefit immensely from his experience of Australian and Asia-pacific operations. Conclusion In conclusion, I would like to than each of you for your support and understandi ng. I would also like to thank employees at all levels for their sustained effor ts and support. The BOC group has continued to support us proactively through technology transfe rs, know how and international management practices. This support will become in creasingly important as your company takes on more investments and expansion pro grammes and I extend my grateful thanks to them for all its help.
