MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Embarking In the New Trajectory And Creating Value

During the year, the Company has embarked on various new assignments, which are stepping stone, for a big leap towards getting many more such critically important projects, which would go in the overall growth of the Company and its profile. The year in perspective is important for the reason that there has been significant shift in the overall project profiling so as to de-risk the over dependence on limited sector specific Industries. A point in comparison is 20% of the total order book is from the Central Government sector.

 

The success of the Company is directly attributable to its dedicated staff, who have accumulated the knowledge and experience necessary in the commercial construction marketplace, by combining the best technical resources with the most experienced personnel in the region, BLK has built a tradition of quality work delivered on time, within budget. The formula for the Company’s success is built upon an aggressive business strategy that focuses on the core competencies of fast track construction, high quality finishes. The project teams work with clients to identify critical issues and accordingly programme the execution needs and then seek to exceed the customers’ expectations. BLK constructs all types of buildings: Corporate Headquarters, Research And Development Complexes, Educational Campuses, Healthcare Facilities, Hotels / Conference Centers, Multi-family Residential Developments, Retail Malls And Lifestyle Centers, Government Buildings, Bridges, Airports etc.

 

The Company has completed more than 28 projects in last year with clients including M/s HPCL-Mittal Energy Limited, M/s Toyota Kirloskar Motor Private Limited, M/s Bennett Coleman and Co. Limited, M/s Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Limited, and M/s Indian Oil Corporation Limited

 

 

Global Economy

Global Economy in financial Year 2010-11 has witnessed recovery from the economic crisis that has engulfed some of there key markets. While growth in emerging market economies remain strong and some of them neared their pre-recession growth levels on the back of domestic demand and buoyant exports, the developed economies began to show pickup in demand where uncertainty continue to prevail over economic conditions.

 

Some of the countries like Greece, Portugal, Ireland and Spain are going through throes of economic turmoil. Sharp increase in oil prices and waves of public protests that has erupted throughout the Middle East and North Africa had further added fire to fuel. Some protests have become revolutions as governments such as those in Tunisia and Egypt have been overthrown. Others have not got that far but have sometimes been peaceful, other times met with very brutal repression, and all this has added uncertainty to the pace of global recovery.

 

Indian Economy

India has maintained its growth momentum on the foundation of relatively strong fundamentals of the economy. Strong domestic consumption, buoyant exports, above normal monsoon and robust service sector enabled GDP to grow by around 8.5% during 2010-11. The rupee also remained range bound against US dollar to the comfort of both the exporters and the importers. Inflation has been a cause of worry, particularly food inflation, which remained in double digit range during the year and to control the same, RBI has taken measures, inter-alia, by increasing the repo and reverse repo rates at regular intervals during the year. This has resulted in increase in the lending rates of commercial banks.

 


Industry Overview

The level of a Country’s development is reflected by its infrastructure and social upliftment of the people. The desperate need for infrastructure development has increased the demand of the construction industry. The construction industry has made a significant contribution to the national economy and provides employment to large number of people. The use of various new technologies and deployment of project management strategies has now made it possible to undertake projects of mega scale.

 

The Construction Industry Development Council (CIDC) predicts that investment in construction in this populous country will rise by ten percent over the current year of 2011/12. The Construction industry contributes more than 5 per cent to the nation’s GDP and 78 per cent to the gross capital formation. Total capital expenditure of State and Central Government will be touching Rs. 8020870.000 Millions in 2011-12 from Rs. 1435870.000 Millions (1999-2000).

 

The Country’s construction industry forecasts, average real growth of 7.9% per annum between the financial years 2010-11 and 2015-16. This relatively high growth figure indicates that there are a large number of projects available to infrastructure companies throughout the stated period and certain sectors, such as the power and airport sectors, presenting more opportunities than others. However, there are significant risks preventing the realisation of returns for these projects and these risks are inhibiting upside movement to the construction growth forecast.

 

The latest statistical data from India’s Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MOSPI) show that real growth for the Indian construction industry reached 9.6% year-on-year for H110/11 (1 April 2010 to 31 September 2010).

 

India’s business environment continues to be plagued by a convoluted and incoherent legal framework, rampant corruption, weak land clearance regulations and an environmental ministry that is over-zealous in prosecuting infringements, but slow in implementing policies. These issues have led to lengthy delays that cause massive cost overruns for many of India’s construction projects. The latest figures from ‘MOSPI’ show that 293 out of 559 construction projects in India were delayed as of October 2010. These delays allow wastage and corruption to fester, which leads to cost overruns. MOSPI calculates that the total budgeted cost of all 559 projects is forecast to exceed original cost estimates by approximately 21%.

 

Despite these problems, significant opportunities for greenfield projects remain, particularly in the infrastructure sector. The Indian government remains committed to developing sufficient infrastructure to meet the needs of the economy. According to BMI’s key projects database, there are more than US$270bn worth of projects - under construction or in the pipeline - in India’s infrastructure sector

 

Taking cue from the Government’s ambitious projects lined up for the Eleventh Plan period, the demand for construction is expected to grow by at least 8-9%, and 2.5 million employment opportunities per annum are expected to be generated.

 

The importance of construction activity in infrastructure, housing, and other asset-building activities can be seen from the fact that the component of construction comprises nearly 60%–80% of the project cost of certain infrastructure projects such as roads, housing, etc. In projects such as power plants, industrial plants, etc., though the share is lower but it still remains critical.

 

In terms of magnitude, construction activity is second only to agriculture. The construction industry also has major linkages with the building material manufacturing industry including cement and steel, bricks and tiles, sand and aggregates, fixtures and fittings, paints and chemicals, construction equipment, petrol and other petro-products, timber, mineral products, aluminum, glass, and plastics. Construction materials account for nearly two-third of the average construction costs. On the basis of an analysis of the forward and backward linkages of construction, the multiplier effect of construction on the economy is estimated to be significant.

 

Investments in Construction have a positive domino effect on supplier industries, thereby contributing immensely to economic development. The Construction sector has strong linkages with various industries such as cement, steel, chemicals, paints, tiles, fixtures and fittings. While in the short term it serves as a demand booster, in the long term it contributes towards boosting the infrastructure capacity

 

OUTLOOK

The continued growth of India’s middle class and the ongoing development of tier two and tier three cities as a result of urbanization suggest that higher demand for the Company’s construction services will remain strong in the coming periods.

 

Over the longer term, the Company believes that its growth will be driven by expanding its reach in tier-two and tier-three cities and increasing focus on specialist construction projects, which the Company believes will deliver higher profit margins.

 

As a part of this new strategic direction, the Company plans to upgrade its qualification and engineering standards to ensure that it can tap into this growing market potential.

 

The majority of the new opportunities will be in infrastructure, versus previously when real estate was the driving force in the construction market. This causes a tremendous need for skilled and unskilled labour to man these projects, still the demand for the residential units, driven by the high growth rate in the Indian economy and rapid urbanization, is expected to be strong in the medium term. However the absorption rate is likely to slowed down over the near term on account of the strong increase in residential unit prices and withdrawal of teaser interest rate by the banks and other lenders and increase in interest rates.

 

Though Margins have taken a cut over the last year, however, the impact has been lessened due to cost-cutting measures taken by the Companies. Due to inept contribution by the government in awarding new contracts compled with inflationary pressure, there would be continuing pressure on the margins, but the Company is taking adequate steps to combat the same.
