Siemens Ltd
Chairman Speech
Dear Shareholders,
The financial year 2021-22 was a volatile period for the global
economy. While it started with optimism, with the economy opening up, consumption rising
and production back to normal levels, developments on the geo-political and macro-economic
fronts led to uncertainty. Speculation of a looming recession and slowing growth emerged
as a result of inflation, material shortages, supply chain issues and most central banks
around the world raising interest rates.
In such a scenario, the Indian economy remained resilient and continued
growing. Business sentiment too was strong, as seen in increased domestic demand and
consumption, aided by both public and private capital expenditure. The Central Government
has been consistent in its policies and measures to maintain higher capital expenditure
while also supporting the State Governments to follow suit. It is imperative that the core
sectors and the small and medium enterprises (SMEs) continue to get capital investments to
drive steady, all-round economic growth.
The resilience of all the businesses, which did remarkably well, is
evidence of the Company's strong performance in Revenues, New Orders as well as Net
Profits. With its wide-ranging portfolio, market-oriented organization structure,
technology leadership and strong local competence, the Company is in a good position to
partner with the country in its sustainable growth.
Financial Performance - Highlights
For the financial year 2022, the Company received New Orders valued at
Rs 194,221 million, a 43.1 percent increase over Rs 135,709 million in the financial year
2021. The Order Backlog as of 30th September 2022 stood at Rs 171,830 million.
Sales (excluding other operating revenues) were up by 18.3 percent to Rs 145,881 million,
compared to Rs 123,280 million in the previous financial year.
Profits from Operations stood at Rs 13,974 million compared to Rs
12,061 million in the previous financial year. The Company's Profit before Tax stood at Rs
16,802 million compared to Rs 14,055 million in the previous financial year, an increase
of 19.5 percent. The Profit after Tax for the financial year was Rs 12,497 million, an
increase by 19.7 percent compared to Rs 10,440 million in the previous financial year. The
Board of Directors of the Company has recommended a dividend of Rs 10/- per equity share
of the face value of Rs 2/- each for the financial year ended 30th September
2022. The above financial performance is for continuing operations.
Business Performance - Highlights
Among the key highlights during the financial year 2022, the Company
(as part of a consortium) booked a large order to the extent of approximately Rs 9 billion
to develop the Metro Corridor for Pune Metro under the public-private partnership route.
It won another order from Rail Vikas Nigam Limited, a listed Mini Ratna of Ministry of
Railways, for signaling and telecommunication of two corridors of the Kolkata Metro Line 3
and 6.
The Company is contributing to the decarbonization initiatives at one
of the largest aluminium companies in India - an overhaul of its ageing turbines promises
CO2 reduction of around 100,000 tonnes per year. It received orders for electrification of
a data center, cloud-based meter data management system for a state electricity
distribution company and a turnkey 33kV switchyard at a deep all-weather port. It also
implemented a digital twin solution for streamlining paint processes at an automotive
original equipment manufacturer. The Company was also involved in automating the first
indigenous greenfield COVID-19 vaccine production as well as providing automation for
cranes at a steel plant.
Digital transformation
One of the highlights of the financial year 2022 was the launch in
India of Siemens Xcelerator, an open and evolving digital business ecosystem. It comprises
a comprehensive, curated portfolio that includes digital and Internet of Things
(IoT)-enabled offerings (software, hardware and digital services) from Siemens and
certified third parties.
The launch has happened at an opportune moment as the Company has
experienced heightened interest in digital solutions from a wide range of customers. Many
customers have expressed the need for solutions that address challenges specific to their
verticals, and I am confident that many would see immense value in a platform that is sure
to make their digital transformation easier, faster and at scale. This platform is
especially beneficial to the thousands of SMEs, in which the Company has a strong
footprint, as it can help them scale up, upgrade and adopt new designs and components much
faster to stay competitive. The digital platform offers value creation for customers of
all sizes in industry, buildings, grids and mobility. The curated portfolio of software,
IoT-enabled hardware and digital services follows key design principles of
interoperability, flexibility, openness and as-a-service.
The penetration of digital technologies across various verticals has
increased considerably. Many of the Company's large customers have already implemented or
shown high levels of interest in technologies such as Industry 4.0, digital twin,
cybersecurity and artificial intelligence to achieve efficiency, productivity,
flexibility, transparency, availability, scalability, speed, resilience and a host of
other benefits.
Sustainability
Sustainability is firmly embedded in the Company's business strategy
and is defined under the DEGREE framework (Decarbonization, Ethics, Governance, Resource
Efficiency, Equity, Employability). Together with implementing sustainability measures
within the organization, the Company has been supporting its customers to meet their own
sustainability goals.
The Company has contributed to the setting up of e-charging
infrastructure in Bengaluru and Chandigarh, and helped large cement and aluminium
producers reduce their carbon footprint. The Company has regular awareness sessions (such
as Integrity Dialogue and Collective Action) for employees, business partners and
customers on Business Conduct Guidelines. It has a Supplier Code of Conduct as well as
environmental and social due diligence (Governance). It has set up distributed energy
systems in the Kalwa and Aurangabad factory premises and also at Indian Institute of
Technology, Kanpur. While offsite solar energy powers the factories, IIT Kanpur benefits
from integrating microgrid, solar, biomass, e-charging and smart metering technologies.
During the financial year 2022, the Company has laid emphasis on
strengthening diversity and inclusivity through various Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
initiatives. Lastly, the Company has contributed to improving employability having
implemented the Dual Vocational Education Training (Dual VET) approach in around 300
Industrial Training Institutes (ITI) across 14 States (benefitting over 45,000 students
annually).
The Company's intelligent and sustainable solutions support customer
initiatives to increase competitiveness and address climate change challenges. A few of
these technologies are eco-design transformers, grid control centers, high-efficiency
motors and drives, electric locomotives and hotel load converters, power plant
modernization solutions, building management systems, energy management and automation.
Business Responsibility
The Company considers it as its economic, environmental and social
responsibility to foster sustainable local development and add value to the local economy
in which it operates. The Company's CSR projects are long-term in nature designed to
create sustainable value to society.
During the financial year 2022, Siemens Scholarship Program completed
10 years since it was launched. This is one of the Company's flagship projects that
enables access to quality education to economically disadvantaged communities. So far, it
has enabled 1,135 bright students from government engineering colleges from all over India
and many of these scholars are now role models for more students to emulate.
Through the Company's CSR initiatives, over 23,000 students have been
exposed to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) and over 32,145 ITI
trainees have received training under Dual VET; seven self-sustaining livelihood centers
running on solar energy have been set up; water storage facilities with a capacity of 292
million liters have been created; over 11,000 saplings have been planted; over 145 acres
of land have been made arable; and humanitarian assistance provided to over 6,600 people
affected by floods in Assam.
These are a few highlights - you will find more details in the CSR
Report later in the Annual Report. The Company has also published a detailed Business
Responsibility and Sustainability Report for the first time this financial year.
People Excellence
During the financial year 2022, the Company scaled up efforts to
empower its people, develop a growth mindset and encourage continuous learning to help
address the fast-paced market changes. The Company is known as a leading
technology-focused company and its people have the opportunity to create a better tomorrow
for society through technology solutions.
Along with retention of talent, the Company's focus has also been in
upskilling employees, particularly in building competence in local engineering and niche
skills, in high-growth vertical segments.
The Company continued to focus on employee wellbeing through
initiatives such as 24/7 healthcare consultation services and diagnostic tests at
discounted rates to employees and their family members. The wellbeing program has been
tailored to meet the requirements of employees. Awareness sessions are conducted regularly
to make employees aware of health aspects such as managing hypertension, nutrition,
lifestyle ailments, amongst others.
Outlook
The global macroenvironment is expected to continue to remain
challenging in the next financial year, with growth likely to further lose momentum.
Central banks in various countries are facing the dilemma of prioritizing price stability
over economic growth.
However, India is in a bright spot with an expected GDP growth rate of
nearly 7 percent, and while the growth rate may be lower next year, it will still be among
the fastest growing economies in the world. India has maintained good diplomatic relations
with most countries and our heft is growing in the international arena. Political
stability, diplomacy, favourable demographics, digital infrastructure and a distinct
pathway to energy transition are factors that will transform India in the next decade.
Our long-term growth prospects depend on attracting consistent
investments. While private investments are strong, continued public capital expenditure
will be crucial. Capital expenditure channeled through the production-linked incentive
scheme is on the rise, though large-scale investments are restricted to select sectors.
The latest capacity utilization level of 72 percent should improve next year.
Our country's growth story remains intact - revenue collections are
robust, though rising commodity prices coupled with interest rates have impacted
profitability. The Government's commitment to maintain growth by empowering the States to
accelerate capital expenditure along with programs such as 'Atmanirbhar Bharat', Power for
All, Digital India, National Logistics Policy, National Rail Plan and Green Hydrogen
Policy, to name a few, are encouraging for the nation's economy. India is rightly
positioning itself to be a high-end manufacturing hub, and incremental capital expenditure
is expected to be concentrated on areas where India needs to reduce external dependency on
global supply chains.
India's GDP is expected to continue on its growth path. The pace of
tendering for capital expenditure by both public and private sectors will continue, with
increasing interest in digital and sustainability solutions. As public sector capital
expenditure picks up pace, private sector capital expenditure would follow. The
investments would be in key areas such as sustainable infrastructure, decarbonization,
electrification, automation and digitalization. The Company is well positioned with its
technology solutions, especially in digitalization and sustainability. The Company's
profitable growth would continue to be driven by market momentum combined with strong
execution, along with selective participation in large projects.
In conclusion, I would like to wish good health and safety and
sincerely thank our customers, the board, the management, unions and most importantly, the
dedicated employees for their consistent support and commitment to Siemens Limited during
another challenging year.
