CHENNAI: Auto component major Rane group has chalked out a capex of Rs 250 crore for this year, even as it is aiming for 15% exports for the fiscal ending March 2008. Exports contributed close to 12% of the Rs 1,365 crore group turnover in 2006-2007.
The Chennai-based group is also strengthening its growth prospects up North. It has obtained a five-acre land allotment at Bawal, near Haryana, to set up a new steering column unit with its Japanese partner NSK.
Stating that the company has got the land clearance only last week, group chairman L Ganesh told reporters here on Tuesday that the finer details of the joint venture are being worked out. It will start with assembly operations and later be integrated. The unit is essentially to service Maruti better. The group is also setting up two facilities at Trichy.
The engine valve unit envisages an investment of Rs 40 crore, while the Rane brake unit will involve an outlay of Rs 60 crore. Dwelling on exports, he said, “The rupee appreciation is affecting us. It is a cause for concern. We are still grappling with it and talking to experts on Fed rates and hedging risks.”
Though the rupee appreciation has affected the bottomline directly, the group is building its hedging capabilities. It has given a guideline to each of its companies to achieve an export target of 15% to 20% within three years.
The group has also built the Rane Institute for Employee Development on a 43,000-square-foot plot. It will be formally inaugurated by Tata Motors managing director Ravi Kant, Mr Ganesh said.
