Corporate Information1
Chairman’s MessageDear Shareowners,It gives me great pleasure to address you in this landmark year for your Company. Your continued support and faith in your Company has helped it reach this far. With a vision to emerge as a leading player in the global chemical segment, your Company started off its operations in September 1984 as a small venture promoted by a group of technocrats and is in its Silver Jubilee year. On the eve of the completion of 25 years, I wish to present you a brief snapshot of our operations and achievements over the time.
Starting its manufacturing activity from a small unit at Sarigam, Gujarat, your Company in its journey of past 25 years had setup various global size manufacturing units with state-of-the-art technologies. These manufacturing units are situated at Vapi, Sarigam & Jhagadia in the state of Gujarat, at Tarapur &
Dombivali in the state of Maharashtra and at Silvassa. These units manufacture various Basic Chemicals, Speciality Chemicals,
FMCG, Pigments & Paints, Polymers, Dyes, Rubber Chemicals, etc. In all the company manufactures over 150 products on a regular basis, positioning itself as a unique entity capable of supplying basket of products to various Domestic as well as Global Customers & MNCs. As at 31st March 2009, the Company had invested over Rs 622 Crores in its various Global Scale manufacturing
needs of its loyal and diverse customer bases consisting of over 600 domestic and over 300 export customers. As a matter of fact, your Company has also been selected and approved as a “Preferred Supplier” by various Global Customers and MNCs. Exports accounts around 40% of its total revenue. The combined efforts of Production Team & R&D initiatives coupled with customized delivery solutions have enabled the Company to be amongst the leading manufacturers in its range of
a market leader in India and also globally ranks at 1st – 5th position for more than 75% of its top 50 products. While the top 50 products of the Company contribute around 80% of Company’s revenues, the contribution from the top-
different end-user industry provides for an ideal insulation for any downturn in a particular market segment.Your Company had commissioned in the year 2003-04 a 6 MW Steam based Captive Power Plant at its Sulphuric Acid Division to meet part of the Company’s power requirements. The Company had been pioneer in India to commercialise the Greener Hydrogenation process based on Swiss Technology. The manufacturing units of the Company are of Global Scale & Size
Pharmaceuticals sector and Contract Research & Manufacturing activities during last couple of years. The Company had setup units dedicated to the efforts at CRAMs catering to the high value specialized contract research activities in the Global Markets.The Company had also set-up a State-of-Art Facility at Tarapur to cater to the needs of the regulated markets. The unit had been approved by the USFDA Authorities during the last year. The products cater to the high value life style drugs markets and are poised for rapid growth in coming years. By merger of erstwhile Surfactant Specialities Ltd into Aarti Industries Ltd in the year 2008-09, your Company had added a set of Personal Care and Oral Care based products to its existing product portfolio.Research and Development:Your Company has its own in-house Research and Development (R & D) Centre, which is recognized by the Department
The R&D Centre is well supported & well equipped with various advanced analytical instruments and also has a Pilot Plant capable of handling various reactions at Pilot Scale. Over the years, our in-house R&D team had developed & successfully commercialized various new products, a variety of chemical reactions, engineered lots of manufacturing and process improvements to enhance the yield and optimize on the energy & utilities consumption by use of indigenous technologies & resources. Our capabilities of innovating, developing and improving the chemical technologies has been well appreciated by our global clients,
Human ResourcesIn the Silver Jubilee year, your Company’s human assets count stands at over 1250. Your Company is proud of its dedicated and loyal employees who have been a catalyst in its growth. We inspire & continuously support growth of people by providing opportunities & level playing ground. While a lot of companies across the globe resorted to trimming of their workforces in the current economic meltdown, your Company had remained focused on its growth strategy and had increased its workforce and, as always, has continued to have cordial relations with its workforce. While appreciating the efforts of the personnel at each level of operations, your Company in its Silver Jubilee year had held small celebration events at various locations and had felicitated the employees working therein.
Chairman’s Message2
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): In keeping with the philosophy of “Rebuilding Lives”, your Company has served many social causes in the society that it belongs to. The allocation of time, efforts and resources towards meeting the social causes has kept pace with the growth that your Company has achieved over the period of its existence. Besides making contributions to various organisations & trusts and to institutions providing housing, medical, education, rural development, social upliftment, etc, Your Company has been involved in various projects to contribute towards the society.Some of the CSR initiatives that your Company has embarked upon are:
earthquake on Kutch, Gujarat in January 2001.
Earthquake, Cyclone-hit Orissa, Indonesia Earthquake, Tsunami Victims, Bihar Flooding, etc.
Associations with Institute of Chemical Technology (ICT)Your Company’s success is incomplete without acknowledging the contributions from ICT (erstwhile known as University Department of Chemical Technology), which is a premier institute in India imparting education on Chemical technology. The Company’s three Promoter-Directors viz, the Chairman Mr. Chandrakant Gogri, our Vice Chairman & Managing Director Mr. Rajendra Gogri and our Director Mr. Parimal Desai had graduated from ICT. We have been collaborating with ICT and its faculty from time to time for our various projects. We have contributed in various on going activities and for the improvement/up-gradation of the infrastructure at ICT.Performance Highlights & Outlook:
the highlights that stand testimony to your Company’s performance are as follows:
registering an annual turnover of Rs. 1535.75 Crores for the year posting a quantum jump of over 60% as compared to last year. Exports, while registering a growth of around 56%, crossed Rs. 500 Crores and ended the year at Rs.
To cater to the growing demand of Basic Chemicals, the Company had developed Nitro Toluenes & its derivatives which shall be commercialized shortly. The Company is also expanding & upgrading its Hydrogenation technology which shall facilitate the increase in volumes and also for introduction of new Speciality Chemicals. Thus with the steps of capacity expansion, introduction of new products combined with the growth in the Pharmaceutical activities and FMCG products, we target the Company to maintain the growth momentum in coming years.Value Creation to Shareholders:
Company has consistently rewarded shareholders with dividends and has generally maintained a dividend payout ratio of around
For a Shareholder having invested for 100 shares @ Rs. 46/- per share in our Public Issue in 1991-92 and if he would have stayed invested till date, then by now his 100 shares had become 1200 shares (by virtue of couple of Bonus and Split declared earlier). Further he would have also received around Rs. 18190/- as dividends, i.e. approx 4 times his initial investment amount. Considering the average market price of Rs. 42.5 for the month of August 2009, the 1200 shares are now worth around Rs. 51000/- i.e. a growth of 11 times over the initial investment. Thus the shareholder having invested Rs. 4600/- in 1991-92 has got a cumulative return of around 15 times in last 17 years.
heights in the years to come.AcknowledgementI would also like to take a moment and thank all our Shareholders, Employees, Auditors, Government Authorities, Financial Institutions, Banks, Suppliers, Customer and other business associates for their regular support to the Company, without which it would not have been possible for us to reach these landmarks. We value your commitment and strive to give you our best.
With best wishes,Sincerely yours,
Sd/-C. V. GogriChairman

CHEMICAL INDUSTRY - STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTAcross the world, organic Chemicals Industry is following the model of globalization, consolidation, innovation and cost reduction. With the shifting of Chemical Business from Developed Countries to Asia (especially India & China) has boosted the growth of Asian Chemical Industries. Taking the cue from the global markets, the Indian Manufacturers had been expanding in the streams of Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals, placing Indian made chemicals in a strategic position in the Global Markets. This had surged the growth of Indian made Chemicals steeply in the recent past.There was a substantial contraction in International Demand especially for the products going into housing/ real-estate, automobile and electronics from the Third and Fourth quarter of the year 2008-09, due to credit freezing, Inventory Correction and demand contraction. But the demand started picking up from the First quarter of the year 2009-10 for most of the product on the signs of recovery/stability of global economy.OPPORTUNITIES, THREAT AND OUTLOOK The Chinese currency has strengthened against the US Dollar by approximately 2.57% visa-vis Indian currency weakened approximately 27% against US Dollar. This has increased the competitiveness of Indian Chemicals Industry, at international level. Further during the time of World Olympics in China, the production of all chemicals in China was discontinued temporarily, which had boosted the volumes growth of the Indian Chemicals in the Global Markets. Lots of the temporary volumes had eventually been converted into long term orders for the Indian made products.There is an increase in demand for Basic Chemical due to shifting of chemical manufacturing industry to India and also due to continuous growth of Indian economy. To meet the same your Company is expanding the Basic Chemical range by introducing Nitro Toluenes and its Derivatives.Your Company is planning to expand its Hydrogenation Capacity by upgrading technology and increase in volume and introduction of new Speciality Chemicals.The Company continuously strives, through research in its recognized R&D Centre, to device various measures for cost reduction & yield improvements in its existing range of products. The Company has also introduced new products through
The Company had obtained the approval from the US Foods & Drug Administration (generally known as USFDA) for its manufacturing unit at Tarapur which in turn shall increase the Company’s sales volume from the US markets. Further, the Pharmaceutical businesses in other markets are also poised for strong growth in coming years.

prevailing liquidity/credit crisis. With macro-economies now stabilizing the Company expects the interest rate to soften up and thus expects a lower interest costs going forward.
Pigments, FMCG, Agrochemicals, Pharmaceuticals, Polymers, etc. While some of the sectors were impacted due to the recession, the other sectors such as parts of FMCG, Agrochemicals, Pharmaceuticals had performed better and thus the diversity in the product base has helped the Company in the current Global Slowdown. With the Amalgamation of erstwhile Surfactant Specialities Ltd., your Company shall be able to add-up new products and newer applications to its existing product–mix. Surfactant Specialities had envisaged to emerge as a one step solution provider for surfactants and speciality. It has a fully automated state of art manufacturing facilities capable of manufacturing various Surfactants and Speciality chemicals with application to Personal Care and Oral Care sectors and presently supplies its range to the major FMCG companies in India. Hence the Amalgamation would add the value to AIL by increasing the product mix and also to do value addition on high-end Specialties Chemicals sector.
Product Portfolio, the Company expects to continue its growth momentum going forward
