Investment Rationale V-Guard Industries makes consumer electrical and electronics products. The company's product range includes voltage stabilizers, inverter, electric & solar water heaters, fans, kitchen appliances, pumps, wires & cables, domestic switch gears, air coolers, etc.
During FY21, the company has launched several new products such as water purifiers, breakfast appliances, kitchen hobs and chimneys through online channels that saw an encouraging response from customers. The categories of hoods & hobs and breakfast appliances are completely outsourced at present; the Company will consider investing in manufacturing capabilities once revenues expand to more substantial levels.
The Company continued to expand distribution presence, while launching several new products and driving greater focus on online engagement with customers. The company's work force has shown a lot of deep resolve to keep the wheels turning throughout this period to deliver the best-possible outcomes.
The festive season tends to be big for the industry and V-Guard too is hopeful for a strong season. Even January to March is another big period the company is eying.
Focus on tight cost control throughout this period resulted in operating leverage despite rising raw material pressures. The learning from such costrelated implementations may be expected to drive longer-term benefits as the situation returns to normal over time.
According to the management, in the context of demand constraints, its Electricals and Durables segments have performed well. Commodity cost inflation has been significant in the recent months. While the company has been able to offset a major part of it, some more pricing actions are being planned. It expects the business to bounce back strongly in the coming quarters.
Risk 1. Competition
