5 Industry Opportunity & Potential - An Overview

6 Global Agrochemical Industry The global market for chemical pesticides/agrochemicals was estimated at around $53 billion in 2013, which represented an increase from $47 billion in In the period since 2001, the world market has increased from $25.8 billion, at an average rate of 5.5% Including non-crop agrochemicals market. The trends driving the crop protection market in recent years include higher volatility in agricultural production, water and soil stress, farm incomes in the major developed markets, impact of farm subsidy reform, economic development in emerging markets such as Latin America and Eastern Europe; and the uptake of biotechnology. Herbicides comprise 29-30% of the world market, followed by fungicides (26%), insecticides (26%), and non-selective herbicides (15%). Herbicides are the most widely used type of pesticide since weeds are the major constraint that limit yield in many crops.

7 Indian Agrochemical Industry The Indian agrochemical industry, which has thrived by manufacturing generic products, has grown at a CAGR of 10.1% between FY08-FY15E on the back of rise in MSP, decline in farm labour availability, increasing farmer awareness and the need to feed the ever increasing population. Insecticides accounts for 65% of the domestic agrochemical industry as farmers are mostly dependent on cotton, rice, etc which have higher incidence of insect attacks. Herbicides are the fastest growing segment and currently accounts for 16% of the market. Shortage in farm labour availability and rising labour costs have led to superior growth in Herbicides segment. Application of fungicide is also increasing at a fast clip. The fungicides are used in fruits and vegetables. The key growth drivers for fungicides are shift in agriculture from cash crops to fruits & vegetables and government support for exports of fruits and vegetables.

8 Product Wise Break Up - Global Market The agrochemical market globally is dominated by generic products which account for ~50-60% of the market. Rest of the market is divided between Proprietary and Proprietary Off-Patent molecules in the ratio of 55:45. In terms of value, generic companies make ~32% of total sales whereas patented and proprietary offpatent products make up 23% and 45% of total industry sales respectively. Herbicides are the most widely used agrochemical products globally, followed by insecticides and fungicides. Fungicides are the highest growing segments as apart from increasing yields, it also improves quality and helps in seed treatment. Insecticides are more prevalent in Asian countries due to higher growth of cotton, cereal, fruits and vegetables in these regions which have higher incidence of insect attacks.

9 Product Wise Break Up - Indian Market The Indian agrochemicals market consists mainly of insecticides, herbicides, fungicides and biopesticides. The market is dominated by insecticides, which constitute almost 60% of the domestic agrochemicals market. Fungicides and herbicides are the largest growing segments accounting for 18% and 16% respectively of the total agrochemicals market. The sale of herbicides is seasonal. Increasing labor costs and labor shortage are key growth drivers for herbicides. Fungicides are predominantly used on fruits, vegetables and rice. The key growth drivers for fungicides are the shift in agriculture from cash crops to fruits and vegetables and government support for the export of fruits and vegetables.

10 Indian Crop Protection Industry Overview

11 Industry Value Chain

12 Agrochemicals - State Wise Consumption The erstwhile Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and Punjab are the top three states contributing to 45% of agrochemical consumption in India. Erstwhile Andhra Pradesh is the leading consumer with a 21% market share and the top seven states together account for more than 70% of agrochemical usage in India.

13 Distribution & Sales Channel Agrochemicals are predominantly sold in rural areas. Therefore, large manufacturers with all-india presence use a three-tier sales and distribution network comprising distributors, wholesalers and retailers for wider market reach. On the whole, agrochemical companies with pan-india presence have from 400 to 1,000 distributors supplying to 25,000 to 30,000 retailers. Several multi-national companies have tied up synergistically with local companies for co-distribution or comarketing while mid-size and small scale companies operate through direct marketing of their products.

14 Global Off-Patent Opportunity The global Agrochemicals worth $ 9.3 bn are expected to go off-patent by 2020 which provides immense opportunities for generic players. Globally, percentage share of generic products have increased from 33% in 2000 to 52% in The patented products share has reduced from 30% to 22% in the same period while the rest (26%) is constituted by proprietary off-patent products. The decrease in the share of patented products significant opportunity to Indian companies as manufacturing is likely to move to emerging markets like India and Indian companies can roll out off patent products both in the domestic and export markets. Global MNCs are also looking to forge alliances with Indian companies as India provides adequate IP protection, huge untapped market and low cost manufacturing.

15 Export Opportunities The export of agrochemicals from India has seen a strong growth over the last few years with India being the thirteenth largest exporter of agrochemicals. The key growth drivers are India's capability in low cost manufacturing, availability of technically trained manpower, seasonal domestic demand, overcapacity, better price realization globally and strong presence in generic agrochemical manufacturing. Exports are expected to grow at approximately 10% in the medium term due to better intellectual property protection for products and improved cost structure. In order to build a strong export base, companies will be required to set up marketing offices in association with domestic players in export geographies.

25 Focus - Navratna & Super-11 ILL s Navratnas (the top 9 brands) and Super 11 (the next top 11 brands) contribute 53% and 15%, respectively, to revenues of the total branded formulation sales. To better focus on larger brands, ILL has been phasing out smaller brands and has reduced its portfolio by 21 over the last three years. ILL currently has a portfolio of 99 brands under branded formulations. With this, the revenue share of the top 20 brands (Navratna + Super 11) has improved from 50.8% to 68.6% over FY ILL s management plans to reduce the number of brands to 75 over the next 2 years, thus improving the revenue contribution from the top 20 brands to ~78.7%.

26 Increasing Capacity Utilizations ILL forayed into technicals business to reduce dependence on imported raw materials, capitalize on earning margins in technicals value chain as well, and for backward integration of its formulations business. IIL commissioned INR2.5b capex over FY11-15, adding 10,000 MTPA technical capacity and 14,500 MTPA formulations capacity at Dahej, adding 20,000 MTPA formulations capacity at Chopanki (Rajasthan) in FY15 and adding 2600 MTPA formulations unit at Udhampur (Jammu and Kashmir). ILL faced teething problems with the Dahej technical facility, which impacted margins in FY14. However, INST overcame those problems and ensured higher utilization of 51% in FY15 at the facility. ILL is currently utilizing capacities at 65%, which will suffice to cater growth till FY18/19 thus entailing minimal capex.

30 Concerns & Reasoning 1.) Monsoon Failure : Unfavorable monsoon is the biggest risk for the domestic agrochemical sector. Delayed or deficient rainfall results in sales return and, thus, negatively impacts growth. Similarly, unseasonal rainfall can damage standing crops, resulting in income loss for farmers. 2.) Lower prices of agricultural produce : With Decline in prices of agricultural commodities or lower minimum support price can reduce farm incomes and, consequently, demand for agri-inputs. Unlike fertilizers, prices of agrochemicals are not subsidized and farmers may choose to decrease their purchase of agrochemicals to lower their production cost. 3.) Delay in getting new product approvals: Registration of pesticides is a time-consuming process in India. It can take 2 4 years to launch a new molecule. Delay in getting approvals could lead to loss of potential profit opportunity in that product. 4.) Forex Risk : Imported raw materials constitute 30% of the total raw materials, thus exposing it to fluctuations in foreign exchange. The management plans to increase exports, which will act as a natural hedge.
