MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

The Indian food processing sector has demonstrated exponential growth and continues to take advantage ofthe favourable current economic climate to further leverage growth opportunities. The Government has acted asan important catalyst in bringing greater investment to this sector and has granted fiscal relief and incentives toaugment production and exports. The Milk and Milk Product segment continues to grow as before as Indiamaintains its status of being the largest producer of milk in the world accounting for more than 15% of the totalmilk produced and processed in the international organised sector.

The Food Safety and Standards Bill 2005 was placed in the Parliament this year and referred to the ParliamentaryStanding Committee. It seeks to set up a single regulator that will oversee the establishment of food standardscommensurate with global norms and regulate manufacturing, import, processing, distribution and sale of foodproducts. The Bill further incorporates the salient provisions of the Prevention of Food Adulteration (PFA) Act andis aligned with international legislation, instrumentalities and the Codex Alimentarius Commission of WHO (relatedto food safety norms).

OPPORTUNITIES & THREATS

Innovation continues to be the focal point in your Company’s manufacturing, sales, marketing and variousbrand building efforts. Increased health consciousness within the stressful urban lifestyle offers encouragingopportunities for science based nutritional products. Leveraging the health platform, new products have beenintroduced this year e.g. Horlicks Lite, in Regular, Malt and Coffee flavours, a product for health consciousadults and also suitable for diabetics under appropriate medical supervision. Horlicks was restaged during theyear, following intense market research and product development activities, with an improved formulation whichis clinically tested to make children “Taller, Sharper & Stronger”. The introduction of new Boost Chocoblast, anew variant of Boost, in select markets helped to gain market share. In line with the increased buoyancy acrossthe FMCG segment, your Company continues to perform well with Sales growth of 10.9% over 2004.

It has been your Company’s continuous endeavour to explore possibilities to effectively manage the challengesof inflation on material inputs, media and people cost etc.

Your Company annually reviews “risk maps” to help identify potential business threats. The capability of theserisk mitigation plans, developed to redress identified threats, is honed to protect the interests of all stakeholdersincluding shareholders. Crisis management plans are well documented and simulation tests across criticalbusiness sites have already begun.

As with any agro based industry, input costs are influenced by the vagaries of nature and may vary from year-to-year. Your Company continues to recognize the importance of the price-value equation and the need to besensitive to retail price changes to counter the volatility of input costs.

FINANCIAL RISK
