The G D Birla Phenomena
G D Birla has always been a proponent of free enterprise and capitalism, wherein the private Indian firms can achieve the highest growth possible.
Inception:
In 1912, he was thrown out of a meeting with the English businessmen.When he approached Andrew Yule to convince him to sell off his jute mill, he was mocked for dreaming so big.
GD, a leader in the making:
GD, as a youth leader, became the emissary of Gandhi and other left wing leaders, while also becoming solicitors of the right wing Hindu Swaraj Party, led by Madan Mohan Malviya, Vallabhai Patel and Lala Lajpat Rai.The Birlas were always involved with society and charity – they helped Jamanlal Bajaj set up a Marwari school in Bombay (1912), and set up the first high school in Pilani (1918).
Early Politics and the power of the press:
GD was a member of the legislative assembly as a representative of the Marwari commercial interests.The Birlas acquired Empire and Commerce (1920) and the Bengalee in 1922. From 1924-1927, GD helped run Hindustan Times and took over the finances as well.GD’s proclivity to become a constitutionalist showed in his opposition of the Non-Cooperation movement.He slowly moved towards the moderate party and concentrated more on business commitments.
The story of the Indian Capitalist1930s to 1940s: The realignment with Gandhi and separation from extremist politics:
During this period, GD began to slowly distance himself from Lala and Malviya and finally cut off the ties, although the Birlas continued to remain supporters of nationalism. He became the medium of communication between Gandhi and the British unto the Independence of India. During a period when most national leaders were jailed, he left for Britain and the USA to build ties for the future. He was instrumental in the formation of the FICCI, the body that safeguarded Indian business interests as against the European interests.
GD, a vanguard of capitalist economy:
When Nehru came to power, he began adopting a socialistic model of the Indian economy. As a result the capitalistic model of the economy as opined for by Birla and other business houses never really saw the light of day until 1978, when the Janata party came to power.
Relations with the Indian National Congress:
The relationship of GD with the INC was bitter sweet throughout. Once a staunch ally of Indira Gandhi, GD fell out of favours and became entangled in lawsuits when his advise to IG over devaluation of the Indian rupee resulting in massive public outcry, which resulted in Indira Gandhi’s criticism. During this time, the ties with the US also started growing and under his guidance, India managed to lobby successfully for funding from the World Bank. Lawsuits hit Birlas hard – attributed to stocks being deliberately undervalued, tax evasions and setting up of plants without licenses.

ALUMINIUM INDUSTRY ANALYSISSupply
Supply of aluminium is in excess and any deficit can be imported at low rates of duty. Currently, the demand is stable while supply is in excess.
DemandDemand for aluminium is estimated to grow at 6%-8% per annum in view of the low per capita consumption in India. Also, demand for the metal is expected to pick up as the scenario improves for user industries, like power, infrastructure and transportation.
Barriers to entry
Large economies of scale. Consequently, high capital costs.
Bargaining power of suppliers
Most domestic players operate integrated plants. Bargaining power is limited in case of power purchase, as Government is the only supplier. However, increasing usage of captive power plants (CPP) will help to rationalize power costs to a certain extent in the long-term.
Bargaining power of
customers
Being a commodity, customers enjoy relatively high bargaining power, as prices are determined on demand and supply.
CompetitionCompetition is primarily on quality and price, as being a commodity, differentiation is difficult. However, the recent spate of consolidation has reduced the competitive pressure in the industry. Further, increasing value addition to aluminium products has helped some companies protect themselves from the high volatilities witnessed in this industry.
PROSPECTSChina has been a marginally surplus producer of aluminium, while India turned aluminium deficit in 2011 after being a marginal surplus producer for many years. However, commissioning of new capacities will make India surplus in aluminium in the near future.
Long term outlook for aluminium continues to remain strong with Global aluminium demand expected to increase at a CAGR of 6%, with expected growth of 9% till 2020. This growth rate, though strong, pales in comparison with the stupendous rate at which Chinese aluminium consumption has grown over the last decade.
Refined Copper Production Capacity
India is net exporter of refined copper and importer of concentrate. All major deposits explored in sixties and seventies 100 million tonne ore required for meeting installed smelting/refining
capacity against annual production of 3 million tonne. Huge opportunity exists in green field exploration & development of new
mines.
