DIRECTORS’ REPORTTo the Members of Timex Group India LimitedYour Directors are pleased to present the Twenty-fourth Annual Report and Audited Statement of Accounts for the yearended 31 March 2012.FINANCIAL RESULTSRs. in Lakhs2011-12 2010- 11Income 18,391 17,391Expenditure 17,786 15,633EBIDTA 911 1,927Interest 109 0.47Depreciation 197 169Profit before tax (PBT) 605 1,758Provision for Taxes 152 357Profit after Tax 453 1,401The year under review had been a tough year due to slowdown of the economic growth. The GDP growth projection of 9%fell short of expectations and the year closed with GDP growth of under 7%. This coupled with high inflation and borrowingcosts adversely impacted the consumer demand in most categories and your Company was no exception.In addition, the economy witnessed a sharp depreciation of Indian Rupee during the year, which in turn had significantlyimpacted the operating margins for the business. Your Company had taken aggressive price increases across brands tominimize the impact of adverse exchange rate; however the full benefit of these price changes will only be seen in the nextyear. The rupee continues to be weak and necessary steps are being taken to mitigate the future risk in this regard.Regardless of these challenges, the focus of the Company had been to deliver results and continue to invest in the long termgrowth drivers for the business. The year 2011-12 saw the Company growing marginally over the last year on overall businessbut our trade channel, which is a better barometer for business equity witnessed approx 20% growth over the last year.The year 2012-2013 shall continue to be a challenging year. However, we have no doubt that the fundamentals of the Indianeconomy shall continue to be strong over the longer term. Going forward the Company has set itself clear goals andobjectives to ensure the sales and profit evolution is in line with the Company’s strategic plan.In the last year, your Company had initiated synchronized action on multiple fronts – people leadership, brand presence andinnovations in terms of products. Some of the key initiatives taken were as under:• Improved Brand salience by building a stronger consumer connects through a multimedia Communication program.• Key positions in the Company were filled in to help address some of the competency gaps.• Revamped the product portfolio and introduced new styles with improved aesthetics and at the same time generated ahigher gross unit margin for the business. This will serve us well in future• Launched iconic Timex products such as Intelligent Quartz – the world’s smartest analog watch & Heart Rate Monitor.• Partnered with 3 Gold Label Marathons (SCMM-Mumbai, ADHM-Delhi & TCS Bangalore 10K) as “Official Timekeeper”.• Visual Merchandising development: Introduced new VM concepts and techniques to amplify brand visibility across verticals.• Expanded retail chain and launched 100 th “Time Factory” store.• Started E-Commerce and Face book fan page for our youth brand – HELIXMANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSISTHE INDIAN WATCH MARKETThe present size of the Indian time industry is currently estimated at INR 4,600 crore. The industry has witnessed a growthof 8-10 percent in the past few years. The watch industry has a promising future as it is expected to grow at 12-15 percent inthe next few years. A large part of this growth is expected from youth, women and luxury segment of the consumers. Whilethe unit growth is driven by low price unbranded products, the growth at the mid and higher price points is driven bycreating higher value through improved styling and technology. The growth in the market has been led by marketing8

investments made by several Indian and global brands (including the launch of several new brands) which are increasingtheir focus on the Indian market. It is estimated that the watch penetration in India is 27 per cent only with just 3.5 per cent ofthe Indian population owning multiple watches.The economy and mass segments form close to 80 per cent of the market by volume and contribute only 40 per cent of themarket by value. Whereas affordable luxury and luxury segments are estimated to contribute around 20 per cent of the marketby value and have a small volume of around one lakh pieces. Around 60 per cent of the market by value is controlled byorganized players. The gender segmentation shows a bent towards men with 60 per cent of the market catering to them.The growth factors are changing consumer dynamics, increase in disposable income, growth of organized retail and entry ofinternational brands. The emerging trends show youth and women consumers as the primary growth segments in the watchindustry. Additionally on account of increasing maturity of the Indian consumer and on account of the concerted effort of theorganized sector branded Time wear has been growing rapidly at the expense of the unorganized sector.Currently, the major challenges faced by the industry are stringent government regulations, slower than anticipated changein the consumer behavior in terms of channels where they shop being quite undercapitalized, and a large unorganized market.OUTLOOK/ OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGESThe economic growth of India and the changing life style of the Indian consumers who are aspiring to a more internationalway of life on account of the growing awareness of the global fashion trends bode well for the growth of the watch industry.Your company is well positioned to take advantage of this.The factors like growing economy in the long term, increasing consumerism, favorable demographics, 300 million strongmiddle class and more than a million high net worth individuals, hold a lot of promise for the Time wear industry in near future.The new rule which allows 100% foreign direct investment in single brand retail trading will further open up the Indian marketfor foreign investments and accelerate retail market growth.The new age watch buyer is a young, aspiring individual with a high disposable income. The consumer does not see thewatch merely as an instrument for keeping time; a watch is now considered a fashion accessory and the brand name a fashion& style statement, and a reflection of his or her personality. This has created a trend of multiple watch ownership “A differentwatch for different occasions.” This encouraging development for the industry could propel industry growth significantly infuture years and Timex Group India Limited (TGIL) with its wide array of brands and styles, ranging from Fashion to Classicsand Sports to Jewellery can take full advantage of this.The Company has a unique advantage of having several international brands and domestic manufacturing capabilities. Thisallows international products to be sold in India at prices which offer tremendous “Value for Money” to the consumer. Thecompany also boasts of a portfolio of seven brands and the presence of its own franchised retail chain, “The Time Factory”,comprising of 100 stores. This allows TGIL to participate at all ends of the value chain which in turn enhances margins. Bydoing so, the company is also better positioned to control its own destiny more effectively and this provides a sustainablegrowth platform for the business in the years ahead.In addition, your Company continues to leverage the skills reposed at the Timex Group Global Design Centre located in Milanand also Global Supply Chain organization to support the business in India which has resulted in improved technology andstyling of the products.TGIL has been recognized by the industry for its commitment to the Indian Time wear Industry. It has been selected twice ina row in the last 2 years in the Brand Equity’s most trusted brands list in the consumer durables segment.RISKS/ THREATSThe slowing down of the economy, high inflation, high borrowing costs and depreciation of Indian rupee and their resultantimpact on the consumer sentiments are major risk for the future consumer demand for the products across all categories.Indian Time wear industry is not devoid of bottlenecks and there are key challenges owing to the government policies andregulations. Economic growth slowdown coupled with rising inflation continues to be great challenge. High duties andcomplex & varied taxation structure are proving to be key impediments to its growth. The latest revision of Excise Duty from10% to 12% is a new challenge. Taxes such as VAT, Octroi fall under the jurisdiction of the state government and many of thesestates have imposed a different rate of tax. The current import duty structure is also impacting the operations and profitabilityof both Indian and international watch companies, posing as hindrances to the growth of the Indian Time wear industry.The increase in the commodities prices, increased cost of sourcing from China and limited vendor capacity for the criticalwatch parts in India are resulting in the increase in the sourcing costs of key components. The rising input costs shall havean adverse impact on the operating margins, unless mitigated through various measures to cut costs (without compromisingquality). Several initiatives are being developed to address this risk.9

Organized retail in India is still in the nascent stage and watches need a very high service led customer interface to close thetransaction with the customer. High rentals and unavailability of skilled sales staff is a big challenge that the industry isfacing. Unorganized sector also poses a big challenge to the organized watch retailers. Counterfeiting is a major issue thatbrands in the mass market and economy watch segment face in the country. Watches as an instrument for time keeping deviceis facing threat from increasing penetration and use of mobile phones.INDIA AS A MANUFACTURING HUB: STRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIESIndia is one of the few countries that have watch manufacturing capabilities. Competitive Prices and Quality of products, increasedentry of new brands and rising cost of sourcing from China, accounts for increased opportunities for making India the manufacturingbase of time-keeping devices. Allotting SEZ’s, promoting skill development amongst labor and infrastructural development couldbe a boon as it would also mean availability of raw materials such as stainless steel, metals at a relatively lower prices.External FactorsAlthough labor wage in China is increasing, the component of wage in total cost of a watch being less, shifting of manufacturingfrom China to India will take time. India imports most of the raw material used in watch component manufacturing such asstainless steel, leather and synthetics.Internal FactorsThe capacity of the existing manufacturers is not enough even to cater to the requirement of existing watch companies. It willrequire huge investments to ramp up capacities to cater to global demand. Achieving the required quality standards with thecurrent set up is a great challenge for the current manufacturersAt Timex, a concentrated global sourcing initiative is in place with the world looking to develop a sustainable vendor base inIndia. Higher lead time is required to cater to global needs from a single location. There is a need to diversify production riskamongst different locations.GOVERNMENT POLICYYour Company has been actively involved with the “All India Federation of Horological Industries” (AIFHI), an apex bodyof Horological Industry in India. Your Company together with AIFHI has been taking up issues concerning the WatchIndustry and your Company in particular, with the various government agencies.

Use of estimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates andassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilitieson the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reportingperiod. Examples of such estimates include estimated provision for doubtful debts, warranties, future obligationsunder employee retirement benefit plans and estimated useful life of fixed assets, classification of assets/liabilitiesas current or non current in certain circumstances etc. Differences between actual results and estimates arerecognised in the year in which the actual results are known or materialised. Any revision to accounting estimatesis recognised in accordance with the requirements of the respective accounting standard.b. Fixed assets and depreciationFixed assets are carried at cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation. Cost is inclusive of freight, duties,taxes and any other directly attributable costs to bring the assets to their working condition for intended use.Depreciation on tangible assets other than leasehold land and leasehold improvements is provided under thestraight line method over the useful life as estimated by the management or the derived useful life as per ScheduleXIV of the Companies Act, 1956, whichever is lower. Depreciation on the following categories of fixed assets isprovided at rates that are higher than the corresponding rates prescribed in Schedule XIV:· Plant and machinery (including office equipment) at rates ranging from 4.75% per annum to 100% per annumbased on technical evaluation.· Furniture and fixtures at the rate of 20% per annum.· Tools and moulds are fully depreciated in the year of manufacture / purchase.Depreciation on additions is provided on a pro-rata basis from the date of acquisition/installation.Depreciation on sale/deduction from fixed assets is provided for upto the date of sale/adjustment, as the casemay be.Leasehold land is amortised over the period of lease.Leasehold improvements are depreciated under the straight line method over the lowest of the following:· period of the lease· useful life as estimated by management· derived useful life as per Schedule XIV.Assets costing upto Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase.33

Gain or loss arising from derecognition of fixed assets are measured as the difference between the net disposalproceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when assetsare derecognised.Fixed assets under construction are disclosed as capital work in progress.c. Intangible assets and amortisationIntangible assets comprising software are carried at cost of acquisition less accumulated amortisation. Cost isinclusive of freight, duties, taxes and any other directly attributable costs to bring the assets to their workingcondition for intended use.Software is amortised over their estimated useful life of 5 years.Assets costing upto Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase.Gain or loss arising from derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between the net disposalproceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when assetsare derecognised.d. ImpairmentThe carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date in accordance with Accounting Standard– 28 on ‘Impairment of Assets’ to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indicationexists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carryingamount of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in theStatement of Profit and Loss. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used todetermine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carryingamount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or amortisation,if no impairment loss had been recognised.e. InventoriesInventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of inventories includes all costs incurredin bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.In determining the cost, the weighted average cost method is used. Fixed production overheads are allocated onthe basis of normal capacity of production facilities. Finished goods and work-in-progress include appropriateshare of allocable overheads.Finished goods held for the purpose of demonstration are amortised over a period of three years after deductingestimated residual value.f. Employee benefitsThe Company’s obligations towards various employee benefits have been recognised as follows:Short term benefitsAll employee benefits payable/available within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-termemployee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages and bonus etc., are recognised in the Statement of Profit andLoss in the period in which the employee renders the related service.Post employment benefitsIn respect of the defined contribution plan in the form of Superannuation, the Trustees of the Scheme haveentrusted the administration of the Scheme to the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). Annual contribution tothe LIC is recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.Charge for the year in respect of unfunded defined benefit plan in the form of gratuity has been ascertained basedon actuarial valuation carried out by an independent actuary as at the year end using the Projected Unit CreditMethod, which recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlementand measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation. The obligation is measured at the present valueof the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate used for determining the present value of the obligation underdefined benefit plans, is based on the market yields on Government securities as at the valuation date havingmaturity periods approximating to the terms of related obligations. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised34

immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.Provident Fund (PF): The Company deposits certain portion of the Provident Fund contribution with the RegionalProvident Fund Commissioner and will have no obligation to pay further amounts. Accordingly, this plan isconsidered as a defined contribution plan.For the remaining portion of Provident Fund, the Company contributes to the PF Trust which is administered bytrustees of an independently constituted Trust recognised by the Income-tax Act, 1961. Contributions, includingshortfall, if any, to the Trust are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on an accrual basis. As the providentfund scheme has a guaranteed return linked with that under EPF Scheme, 1952, the same has been considered as adefined benefit plan. The present value of obligation has been determined based on actuarial valuation done byindependent actuary using the Projected Accrued Benefit Method. Under this method, the Defined Benefit Obligationis calculated based on deterministic approach in respect of all accrued and accumulated provident fund contributionsas at the valuation date. The cost of interest rate guarantee, if any, in respect of future provident fund contributionsis not taken into consideration. This approach determines the present value of the interest rate guarantee underthree interest rate scenarios: base case scenario, rising interest rate scenario and falling interest rate scenario. TheDefined Benefit Obligation of the interest rate guarantee is set equal to the average of the present values determinedunder these scenarios in respect of accumulated provident fund contributions as at the valuation date.Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognised when the curtailment orsettlement occurs.Other long term benefitsCompensated absences are in the nature of other long term employee benefits. Cost of long term benefit by way ofaccumulating compensated absences that are expected to be availed after a period of 12 months from the year endare recognised when the employees render the service that increases their entitlement to future compensatedabsences. The liability in respect of compensated absences is provided on the basis of an actuarial valuation doneby an independent actuary at the year end. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in the Statementof Profit and Loss.g. Revenue recognitionRevenue from sale of goods is recognised on delivery of goods to the buyer which coincides with transfer of allsignificant risks and rewards of ownership. The amount recognised as sale is inclusive of excise duty and excludessales tax and trade and quantity discounts.Revenue from services is recognised on rendering of services to customers on accrual basis.Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis considering the rate of interest and amount invested.h.

TaxationIncome tax expense comprises current tax (i.e amount of tax for the year determined in accordance with the IncometaxAct, 1961) and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax effects of timing difference between accountingincome and taxable income for the period). The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred taxliability or deferred tax asset is recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted as atthe balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty ofrealisation. Such assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to reassess realisation. However, where there are35

carried forward losses or unabsorbed depreciation under taxation laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only ifthere is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets.The credits arising from Minimum Alternate Tax paid are recognised as receivable only if there is reasonablecertainty that the Company will have sufficient taxable income in future years in order to utilize such credits.k. LeasesLease rentals in respect of assets taken on operating lease are charged on a straight-line basis to the Statement ofProfit and Loss.Lease income from operating leases is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis overthe lease term.l.

Contingentliabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations that have risen from past events and the existence ofwhich will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events notwholly within the control of the enterprise.
