20. Management Discussion and Analysis

In terms of the provisions of Regulation 34 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosures Requirements) Regulation 2015, tie Management Discussion and Analysis has been given hereunder:

GLOBAL ECONOMIC REVIEW

The CY 2024 witnessed the restrictions worldwide, leading to a notable rise in household consumption across major economies. The third quarter was a bright spot with robust economic activity driven by stronger-than-expected private consumption, investment amid tight labor markets, and fiscal support exceeding all expectations. Demand in most sectors, particularly in the services sector including tourism, witnessed growth. The year also saw geopolitical tensions starting in the first half, which caused inflation to rise, prompting central banks across countries to resort to somewhat synchronized monetary tightening.

As per the World Economic Outlook (WEO), April 2024 published by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), global real GDP growth is expected to moderate further from 2.8% in CY 2023 to 2.5% in CY 2024. Emerging markets and developing economies are likely to remain robust and grow at 3.5% in CY 2024, which is a slight decrease from 3.9% in CY 2023.

INDIAN ECONOMIC REVIEW:

As per the IMF, for FY 2024, India continued to be one of the fastest-growing economies with real GDP growing at 6.1% year-on-year. During the year, growth was fueled by private consumption, growing manufacturing activity, and the revival of the service sector. The Government of India''s sustained focus on infrastructure investment drove economic growth, leading to employment generation. The service sector was observed to have fully recovered from the weakness suffered during the pandemic. Like many other central banks across developed economies, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) increased the repo rate on multiple occasions since May 2022, amounting to a cumulative increase of 300 bps by FY 2024. These efforts managed to bring retail inflation below the upper tolerance target set by the RBI in November-December 2023 before breaching the threshold of 6% in January-February 2024. In the most recent review, the Monetary Policy Committee maintained a cautious stance to ensure inflation remains in check while supporting growth.

Industry overview

Global aviation industry

Global aviation is on a path of recovery from the pandemic years. The swift reopening of air transport markets over the course of CY 2024 was matched by the appetite for travel among consumers across most parts of the globe.

In CY 2023, the recovery of demand from the pandemic years was driven primarily by large domestic markets. During CY 2024, the global aviation industry inched up further on its road to recovery despite operating in a challenging macroeconomic environment on the back of inflationary pressures, rising interest rates and rising fuel prices. The continued recovery was observed in intra- Europe, Americas and Transatlantic traffic, which was significant (nearing CY 2019 levels) despite the Omicron wave at the start of the year.

As per International Air Transport Association, recovery in global air transport demand for the CY 2024, as measured by Revenue Passenger Kilometres (RPK), stood at 68.5% compared to the CY 2023. This was primarily due to removal of travel restrictions and vaccine rollouts in densely populated nations. Air cargo capacity measured by Available Cargo Tonne Kilometres (ACTK) bounced back remarkably well, though it remained below the pre-pandemic level.

While certain regions may witness a slowdown, the pent-up demand and greater demand for travel imply that CY 2023 will continue to see a robust worldwide recovery, with Asia, in particular, driving significant growth and opportunities in the global aviation industry. The desire and need to travel by air remain strong therefore robust demand will be a common occurrence wherever travel restrictions are taken down, and routes are re-opened. According to IATA, global passenger demand is predicted to reach 85.5% of CY 2024 levels in CY 2024, up from 68.5% in CY 2023.

Strength:

The Indian economy is expected to grow strongly in the coming years and aviation will play a pivotal role in this growth. Having been through a period of robust growth since its inception, the future of the company is full of attractive opportunities.

After two years of muted operations, the Indian aviation is showing recovery as air traffic climbed by 69% year-over-year to 161 million passengers in FY 2024. Further, domestic traffic reached levels in February 2024, demonstrating strong turnaround from the dampened travel sentiment witnessed due to the pandemic.

India is now the world''s third-largest domestic aviation market, trailing only the United States and China. Indian aviation is expected to undergo massive expansion and transformation in the years to come on the back of strong economic growth, favourable demographics, and infrastructure investments.

Opportunities and Threats:

With the Government opening up and providing opportunities to the private sector, global and domestic players are collaborating and establishing joint ventures for manufacturing of aerospace components and MRO facilities for civil and military aviation sectors. In addition, the ongoing Government initiative in the outer space missions has opened up new opportunities. Given the emergence of larger players in the sector, it became incumbent for the Company to re-position itself as a company that has state of the art technology pursuits. The manufacturing legacy of the Company was coming in the way

of this transformation. Hence it became incumbent to hive off the existing manufacturing facilities before taking a plunge into something more contemporary and technologically sophisticated in the same domain. The Company is on constant lookout for getting contracts from various Sectors establishments for modification and refurbishment work.

The delay in decision making and finalisation of contracts by the various sector for their modification / refurbishment projects is a challenge for the industry.

Risk Management:

In an interdependent, fast-moving world, organizations are increasingly confronted by risks that are complex in nature and global in consequence. Such risks can be difficult to anticipate and respond to, even for the most seasoned business leaders.

The internal control systems provide for all documented policies, guidelines, authorization and approval procedures. The statutory auditors while conducting the statutory audit, review and evaluate the internal controls and their observations are discussed with the Audit committee of the Board. The Company''s internal control systems are supplemented by periodic reviews by the Management. The Audit Committee reviews its findings and recommendations at periodic intervals. Company''s internal control system is adequate considering the nature, size and complexity of its business.

Human Resources/Industrial Relations:

The HR mission is to empower employees to make continuous improvements and enhance their professional skills. The company believes in respecting the individual rights and dignity of the people.
