MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

Industry structure and developments

 

The Company is engaged in the production of Portable Gensets, Multi Purpose Engines, Pump sets, Sprayers, Inverters, Power Tillers and Wind Energy. While the diesel Gen sets are popular among rural/industrial consumers, urban consumers prefer petrol/kerosene based Portable Gensets and Inverters. In the recent years Inverter because of its advantages of easy, automatic, noise less operation and relatively low running cost is cutting sales of petrol/kerosene based portable Gen sets. Portable Gen sets industry is also facing stiff competition from cheaper Chinese products. Multi Purpose Engines manufactured by the Company are useful particularly to small / medium scale farmers having small land holdings. The products are extremely compact, light weight, portable and efficient and are becoming popular in the farming community because of their reliability, low maintenance and low running costs. There are number of branded/unbranded players of Electrical appliances having cut throat competition among themselves. Despite cheaper cost of production, Wind Energy is not very much popular in the Country and the industry is passing through initial years of its evolution.
