where your Company has excellent solutions. On the domestic marketing front, your
Company continues to enjoy a significant share in all the three segments where it operates

which include pruning down operational costs, employee training, manufacturing process
improvement, optimization of supply chain etc.
Thus, I am happy to reiterate that in spite of a bit of aberration attributable to certain macro
economic factors, with early signs of recovery now becoming visible by the time the Annual
Report is in your hand, the Management of your Company reaffirms its faith in the
robustness of the business model.
I gratefully acknowledge the unstinted support of all the Board Members and Senior

19th ANNUAL REPORT 2008-09
AIA ENGINEERING LIMITED
Within India, the Cement Industry has shown continued rise in production, thanks to growth in
infrastructure segment. Similarly, Utility Industry (Thermal Power Plants) is also growing owing to
deficit in the Power Generation. Mining is essential for extraction of core minerals, which are the
Raw Material for various ferrous and non-ferrous Industries. The Mining activity continues to sustain
production levels within India. This trend is reflected in several other developing economies.
Nonetheless, the global recession has had adverse impact on cement and mining sectors particularly
in developed countries. This trend continues in global markets which may in very near future affect
requirement of company’s products particularly for exports till de-stocking of inventories takes place
and subsequent improvement in markets.
The Company has succeeded in building a business model which is hedged to a large extent against
external conditions because of the following:
1. There are only a few recognized suppliers, who are manufacturing the products manufactured
by the Company.
2. Majority of the Company’s business comes from the ‘replacement’ demand which is not linked
to the economic capital spending cycles and new projects
3. The Company supplies to three different industries across geographies – in Cement, Mining and
Utility industries and a down turn in some part of the world will always be negated by the boom
in another.
4. The top customers does not account for more than 10% of Sales.
5. Diversification into quarry industries has shown positive results thanks to superiority of
company’s products viz-a-viz conventional alloys.
10. FUTURE EXPANSION:
The Greenfield project at Moraiya has now been commissioned. Your company is targeting to increase
the production capacity upto around 2,00,000 tons so as to become effective and available in the fiscal
year 2010-11. This would be done through a cap-ex of around Rs.40 crores which will be funded
through internal cash generation.

AIA ENGINEERING LIMITED
A. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
Infrastructure is the pivot on which economic development of any country rests. Cement, mining and utilities
are the basic drivers of infrastructure development. Mill Internals manufactured by the Company find
application in the above mentioned industries.
The Company basically employs alloy-casting process for manufacture of the products, which require
designing of alloys in relation to end application. The casting process is followed by precision heat treatment
to develop required end properties. Therefore, Company can generally be classified as a foundry. The industry
produces a specific range of high chrome mill internals which are used as wear parts in the crushing /
grinding operations in the mills/plants of Cement, Mining and Utility industries, therefore the market
prospects are linked with the requirement of these industries.
The demand of our products is driven by maintenance requirement market and project requirement market.
Outlook in both areas of demand is healthy.
Presently, the Company is mainly focusing on the Cement and Mining segment outside India, however, in
India, it is servicing all the three segments.
B. SWOT ANALYSIS
The Company is uniquely positioned as a supplier of High Chrome Mill Internals on a global scale, on
account of the following competitive strengths:
Ø Focus on the combination of Metallurgy, Design and Applications.
Ø Comprehensive solutions based approach, as distinct from supply of commodity products.
Ø Focus on technology research and development.
Ø Worldwide presence in more than 60 countries, being directly in front of the customers through a net
work of overseas marketing subsidiaries in the Middle East, Europe and USA and warehouse facilities.
Ø Low cost of production.
Ø Strategic commercial partnerships with leading OEMs and customers.
Ø A management team comprising of Technocrats, Professionals and Consultants having rich experience
in High Chrome Mill Internals industry.
WEAKNESS/THREATS
Ø Inability to scale up the capacities rapidly owing to extremely high importance of absolutely zero failure
rate of the products expected by the customers, requiring close monitoring of the quality.
Ø Issues related to logistics, particularly with the increasing volumes of the products.
Ø Current global slow down owing to massive de-stocking witnessed in the cement and mining industries
which may impact the short term performance of the company.
OPPORTUNITIES AND STRATEGIES
Ø To tap the opportunities available in the global Mining segment and the Cement, Mining & Utility
segment in India.
Ø To expand the Cement market by adding new geographies and also by focusing on widening of
product-portfolio in the cement business.
Ø To widen the basket of minerals by focusing on solutions for Copper, Gold and Platinum in addition to
Iron Ore Mining in the global markets.
Ø To maintain and further strengthen our capabilities of Research & Development activity.
Ø To focus more on strategic relationship/ commercial partnerships with international groups.

C. SEGMENTWISE PERFORMANCE
The Company primarily operates in only one segment i.e. manufacturing of High Chrome Mill Internals.
However, from the market stand point, to give a better understanding of our market positioning, it may be
mentioned that in F.Y. 2008-09, 43% of the total consolidated sales came from within India and balance
57% came from outside India.
D. OUTLOOK AND PROSPECTS
The Company is operating in a high technology oriented niche engineering segment, involving manufacturing
of impact, abrasion and wear resistant, high chrome mill internal products used by cement, mining and
utility industries. The Company services the ‘replacement’ demand of these industries and the OEM
requirement for new capacities added.
Ø The ‘replacement’ market is strong thanks to the strong demand of metals and cement.
Ø The OEM business is also poised for growth as new cement capacities are being added not only in India,
but in many other parts of the world.
The implementation of the ongoing Greenfield project at Moraiya is complete, and both the phases with an
aggregate capacity of 1,00,000 TPA have been commissioned. The first phase of 50,000 MT. was commissioned
in June 2007 and the second phase of 50,000 MT in May 2008.
Fiscal year 2008-09 –particularly the second half of fiscal year 2008-09 witnessed on set of deep recessionary
trends in the major global markets. The countries which were particularly worst hit include North America,
South America, European Subcontinent as well as CIS countries. Since your company is strongly present in
the cement segment in all these major markets, it has witnessed a temporary impact of this slow down in the
cement replacement demand from the above markets. This impact is likely to be felt till the first half of the
fiscal year 2009-10
Even on the mining front, since your company had focused strongly on Iron Ore for its worldwide foray into
mining business, significant slow down in the iron ore production world wide resulted into a sizeable
destocking activity by the major iron ore mines, which affected your company’s plan to ramp up its production
for servicing this segment in near term.
However, your company firmly believes that the long term prospects are extremely bullish. Further, there are
already earlier signs of some recovery starting to happen in the second half of fiscal year 2009-10.
Your company has taken several initiatives for sustaining the growth momentum. This include in the cement
segment widening of market horizon and focusing on multiple applications etc. On the mining front your
company has aggressively diversified into other minerals like Copper, Platinum and Gold and the initial
response is quite positive. The commercial dispatches in the Copper and Platinum segment have already
begun.
Similarly on the utility front, your company has also started initiatives for entering Chinese markets where
your company has excellent solutions.
On the domestic marketing front, your company continues to enjoy a lion share in all the three segments
where it operates.
Thus, the long term prospects continue to remain very much bullish and strong.
Your company is targeting to increase the production capacity upto around 2,00,000 tons so as to become
effective and available in the fiscal year 2010-11. This would be done through a cap-ex of around Rs.40
crores which will be funded through internal cash generation.

to Employees Provident Fund. The Company’s payments to the defined contribution plans are
reported as expenses during the period in which the employee perform the services that the
payment covers.

by independent actuaries in the manner that distributes expenses over the employees working
life. These commitments are valued at the present value of the expected future payments, with
consideration for calculated future salary increases, using a discounted rate corresponding to
the interest rate estimated by the actuary having regard to the interest rate on Government Bonds
with a remaining term i.e. almost equivalent to the average balance working period of employees.

as and when the settlement takes place with the terms of the respective contracts.
12) Borrowing Cost :
Borrowing costs are recognized in the period to which they relate, regardless of how the funds have
been utilized, except where it relates to the financing of construction or development of assets requiring
a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended future use. Interest on borrowings if any is
capitalized upto the date when the asset is ready for its intended use. The amount of interest
capitalized for the period is determined by applying the interest rate applicable to appropriate
borrowings.

Equity Shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Equity Shares outstanding
during the year. Diluted earning per Share is calculated by dividing net profit attributable to equity
Shareholders (after adjustment for diluted earnings) by average number of weighted equity shares
outstanding during the year.

TO
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF

1. We have audited the attached consolidated balance sheet of AIA Engineering Limited (“the Company”), and
its subsidiaries (collectively referred as ‘the AIA Group’) as at March 31, 2009 and also the consolidated
profit and loss account and the consolidated cash flow statement for the year ended on that date annexed
thereto. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Management of the Company. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
2. We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those
Standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
3. We did not audit the financial statements of subsidiaries, whose financial statements reflect total assets of
Rs.139.54 crores as at March 31, 2009 and total revenue of Rs.741.06 crores for the year then ended. These
financial statements and other financial information have been audited by other auditors whose reports
have been furnished to us, and our opinion is based solely on the report of other auditors.
4. We report that the consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company’s management in
accordance with the requirements of the Accounting Standard (AS) 21 - Consolidated Financial Statements
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
5. On the basis of information and explanations given to us and on the consideration of the separate Audit
Reports on individual Audited financial statements of AIA Engineering Limited and its subsidiaries, in our
opinion the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting
principles generally accepted in India:
(i) in the case of the consolidated balance sheet, of the state of affairs of the AIA Group as at March 31, 2009
(ii) in the case of consolidated profit and loss account, of the profit for the year ended on that date; and
(iii) In the case of consolidated cash flow statement, of the cash flows for the year ended on that date.
(iv) Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to :
Note 10(a) of Schedule 19 regarding derivatives contracts entered into by the Company to hedge Foreign
Currency Risk. The notional marked-to-market loss on these unexpired contracts as on 31-3-2009 amounting
to Rs.13664.94 Lacs has not been considered in the financial statements.
