OPERATIONS :

The Company has achieved turnover of Rs.60.34 crores during the current financial year as against Rs.72.06 crores during the previous year. The previous turnover is inclusive of excise duty whereas current year's turnover is net of GST after 30th June, 2017. The Company has achieved EBIDTA of Rs.4.25 crores during the year as against Rs.(0.28) crores during the previous year. Net loss during the year has decreased to Rs.1.88 crores from Rs.4.38 crores in the previous year.

The last four-five years were very challenging for the Company in view of the slowdown in Indian economy in general and negative growth in the capital goods industry in particular. During this period various powers and other green field projects were either on hold or stuck due to various factors i.e.; environmental clearance, financial closure etc. and consequently as Key Component/ Material Suppliers Original equipment manufacturers (OEM'S), like our company, are saddled with inventory and low business prospects.

The Company is hopeful that fresh capital investment in the power, refining and petro chemical sector will revive as the Government at Center is taking steps in that direction by more reforms including opening more sectors to FDI, raising FDI limit of various sectors and implementation of GST. Your Company is well positioned as efforts made into product development over the past few years have made your company one of the few manufacturers in the country that are capable of producing tubes for the power generation industry.
