Riddhi Siddhi Gluco Biols Ltd (Rs139)
(BSE Code - 524480)
(P/E - 9, FY’09 Sales - Rs534 cr, Mkt Cap - Rs157 cr)
Riddhi Siddhi Gluco Biols Ltd (RSGB) is the largest manufacturer of various types of starch, liquid glucose, dextrose monohydrate and other derivatives, high maltose corn syrup and byproducts like corn gluten meal and enriched fibre, which are used in various applications such as chocolates, processed foods, glass and medicines, paper, glucose and textiles. RSGB controls about 17% of the total starch market. About 60-65% of its turnover comes from industry majors such as Nestle, Hindustan Unilever, Ranbaxy, Ballarpur, ITC, Grasim, Indian Rayon and Godrej. Catering to a sizeable market in India, RSGB has continuously tried to increase capacities and feed the growing industry demand, which is about 12-15% at present. Per capita consumption of corn starch in India is estimated to be about 1 kg as compared with 64 kg in US and the world average of 6 kg, which leaves room for a sustainable growth in the years to come. In 2006, RSGB, the largest corn wet milling company in the Indian subcontinent having the highest crushing capacity, had joined hands with France’s Roquette Freres, a leading player in this industry with a consolidated turnover exceeding $4.5 billion, to improve the yield parameters and develop new products.
RSGB’s new capacities are already in place and for technical expertise; it has found a partner in Roquette Freres, France, which is the world’s fifth largest starch company. Roquette also has a 14.93% stake in RSGB. Roquette, which sells about 1,000 products, will help RSGB increase its current product offering of 40 to add more value added products in its portfolio by way of providing technology and know-how. These new value added products will be for nutrition, biotech and health and dextrose for sugar free goods. These value added products will also help RSGB in acquiring a larger pie of the existing market and enter new industries. Considering these developments, RSGB is targeting a market share of 25% in two years as compared with 17% now. RSGB currently generates about 65 per cent of its revenues from value added products. It is planning to increase this to 80% over the next two years. RSGB is also working closely with brand-enhancing food companies like Nestle, Heinz, Cadbury, Hindustan Unilever and Britannia and pharmaceutical companies like Ranbaxy, Wockhardt, Sun Pharma and Nicholas Piramal with repeat business and sustainable revenues.
