Performance of the Company:

The turnover during the year reduced to to Rs.15738.57 lacs as compared to Rs.19514.44 lacs for the year ended 31st March 2012.

The infrastructure sector in India presents a pitiable picture. Every infra company is finding the going tough in India. Getting sanctions and clearances from statutory authorities is cumbersome. Receiving payments against bills is delayed. High interest coupled with higher overheads has eaten away into the profits. Your company is no exception to this scenario. There was operational loss as the management decided to write off the stock in Chennai as the works have been foreclosed. Apart from this, there was an exceptional loss by way of fraudulent invocation of bank guarantee of one project in Chennai. The company has filed both civil and criminal case against this party and the matter is subjudice. However, since the money was already paid by the bank, the management decided to write it off on principles of conservatism. Such write off will be reversed and income booked if the court award is favourable.

Future prospects

The management is of the opinion that unless the interest burden is reduced, the company will find it difficult to make profits. Hence some of the properties owned by the company is proposed to be sold and the bank liability paid off. Based on the orders in hand, your directors are optimistic about the performance in the coming year.

Capital and Finance:

Due to severe liquidity problems, the company was not able to pay the monthly interest charged to by Vijaya Bank. Our account with Vijaya Bank was classified as Non Performing Asset by the bank. The company has surplus non opearating assets which can be disposed off subject to obtaining legal clearances and pay off the debt of Vjaya Bank completely. The company has filed an appeal with Debt Recovery Tribunal to give us reasonable time to dispose the assets. This transaction will not affect the current operations of the company. Apart from Vijaya Bank, facilities have been availed from Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited and equipment finance loan from Srei Equipment Finance Ltd. Both these accounts are standard and no dues are pending as on date.

The company''s shares are being traded in the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. (NSE) of India Ltd.

Dividend:

As you are aware, during the year 2012-13, the performance did not match expectation. Cash flow has not substantially improved as the company did not receive disbursements from customers on timely basis. To regularise the funds flow, your directors decided to retain the resources and hence do not recommend any dividend for this year too.

Directors:

Mr Chandrakant S Sanghavi was appointed as casual director on 07.11.2012 in place of Mr. A B Karweer who expired on 1.12.2011. He retires at the ensuing Annual General Meeting and is eligible for reappointment. In terms of the provisions of section 255 and 256 of the Companies Act, 1956, and Articles of Association of the company, Mrs. Saramma Varghese, retires at the ensuing Annual General Meeting and being eligible, has offered herself for reappointment.

This comes within the purview of deposit under section 58A of the Companies Act, 1956, read with Companies (Acceptance of Deposit) Rules, 1975. The procedures for compliance of the rules is being acted upon.

Particulars of Employees:

There are no employees in the company who are drawing prescribed salary under section 217 (2A) of the Companies Act, 1956 read with Companies (Particulars of Employees) Rules, 1975 as amended.

performance of the Company:

The turnover of your Company reduced to Rs.12582.45lacs as compared to Rs.15852.05 lacs for the year ended 31st March 2009. This was partly a management strategy coupled with some unforeseen hiccups.

Considering long term strategy and prospects, the management had refrained from taking up any major new projects unless the existing non remunerative contracts were completed. The objective was to complete the existing projects, some of which were started when the petroleum and steel prices were low and had no built in escalation clause. The management has made it a policy to include the escalation clause in all new projects being taken up. Accordingly no new major contracts were started during the year 2009-10.

Major works like recarpeting of runway at Cochin International Airport Ltd., Bus Rapid Transit system of Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, Airport work at MIDC Nanded, Concretisation of roads at New Mangalore Port Trust were completed in the third and fourth quarters of the year. After this there was natural delay in demobilisation and transportation of machinery and equipments to new sites.

There was some delay by the Govt of Tamilnadu for making available the land for widening of roads of TNRDC projects.

There were unseasonal rains in Chennai where the majority of new works were being executed. Usually in Chennai the heavy rainfall occurs in October- November whereas in 2009, the rains continued to play havoc from July to December 2009

The profit went down to Rs. 367.12lacs from Rs.389.13lacs for the year ended 31st March 2009. This was mainly because of the lower turnover and fixed overheads.

Future prospects

Your directors see a very bright future for the Company. The Company has been quoting aggressively for new projects during the last few months. We have already bagged orders worth Rs.200 Cr. in the first two months. This new transformation will bear fruits from the second half of the financial year.

Capital and finance:

After the successful completion of the IPO, the Company did not raise any further funds from the capital market. The Company retained the same borrowing facilities with our bankers, i.e. Vijaya Bank. Apart from this we have taken temporary working capital demand loan from Yes Bank.

The Company’s shares are being traded in the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange of India Ltd.(NSE) of India Ltd.
