STARLITE COMPONENTS LTD (517548) - STOCK OF THE WEEK

Dear Investor friends Today I am expressing my view on one Electric component/LED/CFL industry stock.

STARLITE COMPONENTS LTD (517548)

Starlite Components incorporated in 1991, now it is one of the largest manufacturers of CFLs in India. During this period the industry, technology and market has evolved and Starlite has been evolving with it. The last 3 years have laid a strong foundation and now the company is looking at expanding its product range, increasing penetration in the market and strengthening the bottom line of the company. It has a production capacity of about 40 millions lamps per annum. These includes state of the art, fully automatic lines for the production of T3 and T4 lamps from FALMA and GE Hungary.



The lighting industry has shown a very quick shift from fluorescent lighting to LED (Solid State) lighting. As Starlite was waiting for this opportunity, it plans to make the most of it and capture a significant share of the market. The Indian lighting industry continues to show strong signs of growth. It has been growing at a CAGR of 59%, growing from Rs. 8,500 Cr in 2010 to Rs. 13,500 Cr in 2013.lt is expected to cross Rs. 21,600 Cr. in the year 2020.


PRODUCTS
Following are the few products of the company.


The government initiatives are increasing and the opportunities are opening for the industry faster than most projections had anticipated. However, the percentage usage of lighting continues to be a high 18% of the total power consumption in our country (much higher than the developed countries, which account for 12-15%) so with the current Government the demand for LED products is expected to continue and Starlite is gearing up to make the most of this opportunity.

CUSTOMERS
