The Bajaj supernova!

IIPM PUBLICATION

Will Bajaj emerge as a winner from demerger?

It has become almost a ‘business objective’ among two wheeler manufacturers to focus on specific segments. Hero Honda did it with the entry segment and now Bajaj is demonstrating this by focusing on the premium segment.

Bajaj as a company is India’s second largest two-wheeler manufacturer and maintains a market share of 34% (+3 points). Apart from the pulsating performance in the domestic market, the company is also going great guns in the international markets like South East Asia. For 2006-07, Bajaj Auto had revenues of $2.38 billion and profits worth $309 million.

It seems that Bajaj is well ensconced in its chosen track and the recent demerger, forming Bajaj Holdings and Investment Limited (BHIL) and Bajaj Finserv Limited (BFL), is just a pointer towards bigger plans for the future. The de-merger might unlock value and leave more room for appreciation for investors.

FMCG companies have lined up truckloads of money for branded groceries & for enhancing their rural presence; that’s the way the market is headed!

IIPM BEST MBA INSTITUTE

If Caesar believed in ‘Veni, Vidi, Vici’, then FMCG corporate czars have resorted to variation (of products), ventures (into newer arenas) and victuals (or branded groceries) to grab the Indian market space. Yes, for the FY07, Indian FMCG companies have charted their own growth path through product proliferation and are now venturing into newer businesses like retail. According to estimates of SSKI Research, the FMCG industry grew by 17% in FY06, owing to back-end investments, and consecutively, the sector has sustained this growth through even front-end investments into retailing and new product introduction.

From global giants like Unilever to indigenous players like Godrej Agrovet, all players within the industry have started regularly unveiling newer products. And all these newer products happen to be in the two most lucrative segments of the industry – foodand personal care.

How the Kosovo situation is handled will determine EU’s credibility

36TH Full Time Programme In Planning & Entrepreneu...

Confronting the disintegration of Yugoslavia in 1991, former EU Council President Jacques Poos made his famous but now derided statement: “This is the hour of Europe… not the hour of the Americans.” What the EU learned from the subsequent four years of Balkan disasters under its management is now being tested by another major turning point and potential crisis – when and how Kosovo is to become independent. Once again, Europe’s role may well prove decisive.

The decision on Kosovo may not imply the prospect of renewed large-scale conflict, but it does raise serious questions for Europe’s relations with Russia and the United States, as well as for stability throughout the Balkans. While the US has a major stake in the outcome, EU countries obviously have the most significant interests in the region, and perhaps this time they will assume a corresponding leadership role.
