(6/18)
Oligopoly industry:
The domestic tinplate market remains oligopolistic with few participants, leading to a strong bargaining power enjoyed by the company with its customers, as reflected in its ability to swiftly pass on the impact of increase in raw material prices.
(7/18)
• The share of TCIL’s premium product portfolio, which includes value added/downstream products, has been increasing during the last few years, driven by increased focus on innovation & customer-centric approach. This led to better pricing flexibility & margin expansion.

• Challenges:
Exposed to Cyclicality of steel sector:
While demand for tinplate is not directly correlated with steel cycles, the company remains exposed to earnings volatility due to volatility in scrap prices, which move in tandem with steel cycles.
(9/18)
• The tinplate manufacturing process generates significant scrap and as a result, scrap sales as a proportion of OPBDITA have historically remained high and stood at around 82% in FY2021.
(10/18)
• Competition:
The demand for tinplate remains vulnerable to competition from cheaper packaging materials such as plastic, paper & glass.
The low duty structure on imports of tinplate exposes TCIL to competition as imports account for ~40% of the domestic demand.
(11/18)
• Threat of Surplus:
The domestic tinplate capacity is expected to increase by around 35% of the current domestic market size. Thus, the tinplate market could see a surplus situation going forward, unless domestic demand increases gradually and absorbs new capacities.

Import situation
Imports in FY22 reduced by 33% YOY owing to Steel & Steel Products' Quality Control Order
(SSPQCO) which has supported domestic suppliers

(15/18)
The company’s share price has a strong direct correlation wrt Tin prices. The recent meltdown in Tin futures has thus had an impact on the share price of TCIL.
(16/18)
Bigger Picture:
The per capita consumption of tinplate in India is extremely low (0.49 kg) as compared to many developed countries (8 ‐12 kg per capita).
Factors such as FDI in retail & GOIs thrust in food processing & e-commerce will help to close that gap in future.
