Case Study
India
Indian beer market is valued at INR 41 billion for the year ending 31 st march 2010 and it is expected to grow at 17.2% for the next year. Indian growth rates compare favorably with the global beer industry. Foreign brewers are eyeing the Indian beer market which is largely untapped and has growth potential. Apart from providing strong growth, India also provides attractive profit margins due to the consolidated nature of the industry. The effect of this consolidation can be seen in the fact that beer prices in India rarely go down with the competitive pressures of new product or brand launches. In the past, whenever beer prices have gone down, it has been due to either the lowering of duties by the

government or the deregulation of distribution (leading to lower margins for the distribution channel partners). The Indian beer market has been growing rapidly over the last 10 years, due to the positive impact of demographic trends and expected changes, like: Rising income levels Changing age profile Changing lifestyles

Introduction -Globally, over 133 billion litres of beer is sold each year. In comparison, the Indian beer Industry contributes a meagre 1.28% of the global sales. The industry has been witnessing on an average, a steady growth of about 10% per year over the last ten years with volumes crossing 172 million cases in 2008-2009 from 70 million cases in 2002. With a relatively younger population and

Case Study
India
income levels on the rise, India is seeing an increase in the popularity of beer. Consumption of beer in India is also constrained by lack of adequate market infrastructure. In China for instance, there is one outlet for every 300 persons. In contrast, India has one outlet for every 21,000 persons hampering free availability of beer. Total consumption of beer in China grew by 33.56% between the years 2000 and 2006 to reach a total market volume of 30.47 billion litres. With a per capita consumption of 25 litres, China is one of the largest beer consuming nations in the world. Though beer is a milder form of alcohol, it is taxed by most states on the same basis as Spirits. The charge is on absolute alcohol basis.
Page | 11
Case Study
India
Globally on per unit of alcohol basis, beer bears approximately 50% of levies imposed on Spirits whereas in India taxation is regressive on beer. India is predominantly a hard liquor market and beer has a minority preference amongst those who consume alcohol. Typically the size of beer volumes in most countries is 7 to 10 times larger than spirits, whereas in India, spirits is larger. The alcoholic beverage industry in India operates under a very complex regulatory environment which is the biggest challenge. In addition to restrictions on advertising, distribution infrastructure and retailing, varied tax

which the operation is carried out and the whole process is monitored through SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) by the brewer. Section II-Nature of Problem In this case study an effort has been made to find out the practices and process adopted by SAB Miller India for working capital management. The inventory, cash and debtor management along with creditors management has been analyzed and compared to evaluates the and compare the liquidity and

efficiency of the company with its rivals Initially the entire brewing process and the financial position of the company were observed. After that the various problems faced by the units are discussed in this case , Further it is a descriptive and analytical case in nature. More business fails for lack of cash than for want of profit. Efficient management of working capital is one of the most important conditions for the success of an enterprise. Better management of working capital means management of working capital in such a way that an adequate amount of working capital is maintained for the smooth functioning of a firm and for the fulfillment of the two
Page | 30
Case Study
India
most important objectives of any firm and these are profitability and liquidity. While inadequate amount of working capital impairs the firms liquidity and holding of excess working capital results in the reduction of the profitability. But the proper estimation of working capital actually required, is a difficult task for the management because the amount of working capital varies across firms over the periods depending upon the nature of the business, production cycle, credit policy, availability of raw material etc. Section III-Objectives of the study
Page | 31
Case Study
India
Objectives -The objectives of the project are To study the financial position of SABMiller India and compare it with market leader (UBL)
To comparative analysis between SAB Miller and UBL
To calculate the gross and Net working capital requirement of both the companies
Page | 32
Case Study
India
To study the trend of current assets and current liabilities over the last three years and do a comparative analysis Section IV -Area of consideration Need for working capital- The basic objective of financial management is to maximize shareholders wealth. For this it is necessary to generate sufficient profits. The extent to it, which the profit can be earned, largely depends on the magnitude of sales. However sales do not convert into cash. There is
Page | 33
Case Study
India
invariable the time gap between the sales of goods and receipts of cash. There is, therefore, a need for working capital in the form of current assets to deal with the problem arising. Out of the lack of immediate realization of cash again goods sold. Therefore sufficient working capital is necessary to sustain sales activity. Working capital is needed for the following purpose: For the purchase of raw material, components and spares To incur day to day expenses and overhead costs such as fuel, power and office expenses, etc.
Page | 34

India
To meet selling costs as packing, advertisement etc To provide credit facilities to the customers. To maintain the inventories of raw material, work in progress, stores and spares and finished goods. To pay wages and salaries

SABMiller crossed Rs. 1000 crores (1036) leading to a 20% growth over the previous year. At this point SABMillers Market share was 34.5% declining from 36.7%. UBLs Net Sales increased from Rs. 998 to Rs. 1369 crores leading to 37% growth of Sales over previous year making a total of 45% of their share in the market. Clearly UBLs growth during the year was better then the industry growth hence their market share improved and on the other hand SABMillers growth was less than the industry growth. Hence their market share declined. For Year Ending 2009 - Total market size increased to Rs. 3500 crores from Rs. 3000 crores which made an approximately 17% increase over the

India
previous year. SABMillers Net Sales increased to Rs.1316 crores from Rs. 1036 crores leading to a 27% growth over the previous year. Hence SABMillers market share improved to 37.5% from 34.5%.Similarly UBLs Net Sales Increased to Rs. 1698 crores from 1369 crores leading to a 24% growth. UBLs market share rose to 48.5% from 45%.Clearly both companies Share increased more than the industry growth therefore market share also improved.

The above graph explains the Net profit pattern for both the companies for the years ending 2007, 2008, 2009. This is a widely used measure of performance and comparable across companies in similar industries. For the year 2006-07 SABMiller made a Net profit of 40.18 crores which was around 4.65% of Net sales and UBLS Net profit was 65.09 crores which made around 6.52% of Net sales. For the year 2007-08 SABMiller made a Net Profit 34.47 crores which was around 3.32% of Net sales and UBLs Net profit was 62.47 crores which made around 4.56% of Net sales. For the year 2008-09 SABMillers Net Loss was 64.87 crores which made around 4.92% of Net sales and UBLs
Page | 62
Case Study
India
Net profit was 62.49 crores which made around 3.68% of Net sales. Clearly For both the companies the percentage of Net profit is decreasing however UBL has been outperforming and making a good amount of Net profit. UBL has managed to squeeze in profits in the tough time which holds the key for them and Similarly SABMillers Net profit also declined however for 2008-09 it was worst where the company made a Net loss of 64 crores.

The above graph shows the pattern of Current assets or gross working capital for SABMiller and UBL for the year ending 2007, 2008, and 2009. For the year ending 2007 Current assets were 709 crores for SABMiller as compared to 552 crores for UBL. The reason for such high Currents assets for SABMiller is the huge amount of cash and bank balances maintained by the company. Then next year for SABMiller it came down to 474 crores and 526 crores for UBL. During this year companies made huge investments in existing plant and machinery upgrading their capacity due to this the cash reserves came down completely However again the investments in current assets came up for the year 2008-09
Page | 65

for both the companies it was because of increase in the debtors which were consistently increasing for UBL. Sufficient working capital helps the company to avoid stoppage of work and effects on profitability.

The above graph explains the current liabilities pattern for SABMiller and UBL for the year ending 2007, 2008, and 2009. The current liabilities pattern shows that for SABMiller there has been a continuous increase in the three years from 344 crores in 2007 it went to 486 crores in the year 2009.The reason for such an increase is because of the continuous increase in the sundry creditors of the company. This shows that purchases are done heavily on credit basis. On the other hand Current liabilities pattern of UBL has been same in those three years which means that their short term liabilities are less as compared to SABMiller.

The above graph explains the Net working capital pattern for SABMiller and UBL for the years 2007, 2008, and 2009. It is clear that the pattern of Net working capital is fluctuating from high to low and then again high. The trend has been same for both the companies and it is an uneven trend. The year 2007- 08 has the lowest Net working for the both the companies compared to all the three years. The Net working capital measures the liquidity of the firm. The greater the margins better the liquidity of the firm. For the year 2008-09 UBLS Net working capital was 564 crores which were the highest.

The above Line graph shows the Total & Net Operating Cycle period for SABMiller & UBL for the year 2009. Working capital majorly depends on the length of operating cycle and shorter the cycle net operating cycle period, better it is for the company. For the year 2009 the Raw material conversion period was 27 days for SABMiller and 24 days for UBL. Work in progress conversion period (13 Days) and finished goods conversion period (36 Days) was same for both the companies. Receivables conversion period for SABMiller was 81 days and for UBL it was 84 days.

After adding all the Total operating cycle period for SABMiller and UBL comes up to 157 days. Deferred payment period for SABMiller was 62 days and for UBL it was 50 days. Hence Net operating cycle period for SABMiller was 95 days and for UBL it was 107 days. The cycle period was less for SABMiller as compared to UBL. Section V -Some key leanings
Page | 105
Case Study
India
From the first analysis of Net Sales it is concluded that in order to compete with UBL and improve market share. SABMiller has to make sure that every year the growth in the Net Sales is more than the Industry growth otherwise there are greater chances that market share of SABMiller may decline in the coming years. This is because there is a huge potential for beer market in coming years. For example From the analysis and Interpretations it is found that In the year 2007-08 the Net Sales growth in Beer market was 36% and SABMillers growth was only 20% hence their share decreased to 34.5% from 36.7%. Keeping this in mind and looking at the estimated growth in beer market for 2010 and 2011
Page | 106
Case Study
India
which is 17%. It is very important for SABMiller to grow with minimum of 17%.The Net sales of SABMiller for the year ending 2008-09 were Rs. 1316 crores and their market share was 37.5%. For the company to maintain the same market share the Net sales for the year ending 2010 and 2011 should be1. 2.
For the year ending 2010 ( 1316+ 17% 0f 1316) =Rs 1539 crores For the year ending 2011- (1539 + 17% of 1539) = Rs 1800 crores
Page | 107
Case Study
India
This is the minimum amount of Net sales that the company should have in order to maintain the existing market share of 37.5%. However this is the minimum level of Net Sales and Beer market is set to flourish in the coming years where major foreign players are ready to enter this untapped Indian beer market and there are greater chances that market may grow more than 17%. It is recommended that company should look to improve beyond these figures and try best to improve the market share. It is also found that this can be possible as the company has a diversified portfolio. Hence SABMillers Net Sales should be more than Rs1539 crores for the year ending 2010 and Rs 1800 crores for the year

ending 2011. This will lead to companys consistent growth just like UBL and help them to compete in the market. The analysis of net profit concludes that the performance of SABMiller was poor in the year 2008-09 and that is why the company went into losses and on the other hand UBL was consistent with the profit even though there were so many fluctuations in the Market. The reasons for Net Loss in the year 2008-09- The company justified two reasons for losses in the year 2008 -09 and these are-

1.
One time Charge of Rs 34 crores during the year due to change in the accounting policy
to align accounting as per income tax for treatment of containers.

2. 3.
The temporary suspension of Charminar Brewery for 38 days in peak season.
Cost analysis The cost analysis explains the reason why company went into losses. It is found
that for the year 2008-09 cost for various segments were more for SABMiller than UBL. COST DISTRIBUTION

The pie chart shows the cost distribution for both the companies for the year ending 2008-09. This will explain the difference in the occurrence of cost in different departments. The comparison is done keeping Net Sales for the year as the base for both the companies.
1. Cost of material which include (Cost of traded goods sold, raw material and packing material,
Malt processing charges) were 51.8% of Net sales for SABMiller and for UBL they were 48.2%.
Page | 112
Case Study
India
2. Other Expenses
which include (Sales scheme expenses, Commission on sales, Freight
outward, Advertisement and publicity, Management fees, Travel and conveyance, Rent, Repairs, Telephone and other communication, Training and development, Printing and stationary etc) were approximately 37.3% of Net sales for SABMiller and for UBL they were just 29% approximately.
Page | 113
Case Study
India
3. Personnel expenses which include (Salaries, Bonus, Wages, Contributions to provident funds
and other funds, Staff welfare expenses etc.) were 7.5% of Net sales for SABMiller and for UBL they were 5.1%. 4. Borrowing cost which include (Interest, Bank charges, foreign exchange loss) were just 3.4% of Net Sales for SABMiller and for UBL they were 5.2% of Net Sales.
Page | 114
Case Study
India
5. Miscellaneous segment in UBLs Pie diagram include (deprecation, provision and also the Net profit) and on the other hand this segment doesnt exist for SABMiller because the first four costs account for 100% of Net sales The amount of current assets is also insignificant for SABMiller as compared to UBL clearly because of which the current ratio of the company is way below than the ideal ratio of 2:1. Another reason for that cause can be continuous increase in the current liabilities of the company for the last three years. For the year ending 2009 the current ratio of SABMiller was 1.26 which was way below the Ideal ratio
Page | 115
Case Study
India
of 2:1. Another finding is that the current ratio of UBL for the year ending 2009 was 3.73:1, which is way above the ideal ratio. It shows that there was more than required blockage in the current assets because of which the working capital required was more and henceforth the Borrowing cost of UBL was more than SABMiller. Hence it is important for the SABMiller to increase the current ratio and maintain a minimum of 2:1. So that it maintains a good liquidity in order to meet its short term liabilities. Current Ratio can be improved only if there is an increase in current assets of the company and decrease in the current liabilities. It is to be noted that the current liabilities of company are
Page | 116
Case Study
India
continuously increasing. Net working capital was very less for SABMiller as compared to UBL for the year ending 2009. A higher working capital always shows a better a liquidity position for the company. The reason for decline in the Net working capital is the reduction in the cash & bank balances and certainly because of which the liquidity ratio (.79:1) was also below the ideal 1:1. Hence there is a greater need for the company to maintain a bit higher cash balances so that the liquidity ratio reaches to 1:1 from 0.79:1. The Stock turnover ratio of SABMiller is also decreasing every year. In 2007 where it was 13.16 it came down to 9.28 in the year 2009. The conversion period of stock
Page | 117
Case Study
India
through sales is increasing year after year. From the working capital turnover ratio it can be concluded that there is a better utilization of working capital as compared to UBL. However it is also found that the average collection period for the companies is increasing over the years and for SABMiller from 62 days in 2007 it has gone to 81 in 2009. For 2009 the average collection period for UBL was 84 days which means SABMillers average collection from debtors was better than UBL. The average payment period has an uneven trend for SABMiller and for UBL it has a decreasing trend in the year 2009 where Average payment period was 62 days for SABMiller it was 50 days for UBL.
Page | 118
Case Study
India
. Section VI -Conclusion and Recommendation It can be concluded that UBL follows a liberal strategy towards its debtors and creditors in order to maintain better relationship. The above analysis shows that the trend followed by both the companies in past three years has been more or less the same and both have made efforts to increase plant size in
Page | 119
Case Study
India
order to produce more. However the following are the major areas that SABMiller should focus in the near future in order to improve its market share and earn a sustainable profit. Increase the amount of cash and bank reserve so that a better liquidity ratio is maintained. Company has to reduce its Raw material conversion period from 27 days as it is too high. Companys stock turnover ratio is quite poor it should focus on improving it.
Page | 120
Case Study
India
Current liabilities of SABMiller are increasing every year as compared to UBLs consistent current
liabilities. So SABMiller should focus on reducing the amount of current liabilities. Another major area of concern for the company is the amount of bottle loss that it is bearing. In bottling Industry the most critical factor is the acquisition and handling of bottles. Since Bottle market is always fluctuating so it is very difficult to control the cost however the factor that can be controlled is the bottle breakage loss.

Recommendations-The following are the ways in which the Sales of the company can be increased.
Tamil Nadu is one of the biggest beer markets in India and No brand of SABMiller is sold in
that region just because of the governments Policy. This market can certainly be targeted with contract brewing in Tamil Nadu. This way the policy of Tamil Nadu government will be followed and a major market can also be captured.
Page | 122
Case Study
India
Not only just Tamil Nadu rather company should target more on the following five major states
of Beer consumption in India to improve its sales figure As strong beer has 74% market share in India. Company should focus on developing new strong beer brands as Indian consumers drink beer as an alternative to spirits. This can enhance the sales.
Concept of Dumping can help SABMiller to Improve SalesPage | 123
Case Study
India
Other Recommendations
It is recommended that SABMiller should focus on giving more discounts for on spot payment. This way buyer would be attracted and hence cash balances would increase because it is important for company to increase its current cash balances.
Page | 124
Case Study
India
Company should also focus on increasing the Average collection period because currently the period is 81 days which is less than UBLs period. Hence by increasing the Average collection period the sales of the company will increase because more buyers would be attracted.
Discussion QuestionsQ. What selling techniques can be used by SABMiller to enhance there sales in order to increase their market share?
Page | 125

India
Q. What is the appropriate level of Working capital ratio that should be maintained by the brewing companies in order to have an optimum level liquidity? Q .How the current ratio of SABMiller is being affected by the continuous increase of current liabilities over the past three years? Q. What plan should be adopted by SABMiller in order to maximize their production so that wastage can be prevented and demands can be met during season time?
