BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND FUTURE


OUTLOOK:

 

Their Company focuses on two businesses viz. Real Estate and Construction. Both the businesses have grown in the last several years together and have a very bright future. The EPC business has spread all over the country and include constructing factories, hospitals, hotels, offices, residential complexes, shopping malls etc. The Company intends to capitalize on the opportunity presented by the infrastructure sector also.

 

While the Company had a faster growth in the last five years it has faced a challenging situation in the last year.

However, it has consolidated the position in the last two quarters, and is focusing on more remunerative projects.

 

In the Real Estate space, the Company is engaged in development of residential and office complexes, shopping malls, multiplexes, hotels, IT Parks, and other buildings. It concentrates on JDA model of business. However, in the areas where it has had successful launches in the past, it had acquired land parcels also. The Company has created iconic projects in Pune in the past and the buildings have won many awards for their construction. While the Company has potential salable area of over 60 million sq. ft., it has recently started its magnum opus project at Pune with the name, Windermere. All the real estate projects of the Company are selling well and are expected to pick up momentum in the next few years.

 

As a part of backward integration the Company has purchased GMPTechnical Solutions Private Limited in August, 2010. The company is working in two business areas. One is clean room partitions and the other one is HVAC design and integrated building management system. The business is growing more than 20% CAGR and it has forayed into several overseas market.

 

Apart from this the Company has made strategic investments in hospitality business. It intends to exit the units at right prices. In the current year it has sold the hotel in Pune at a profit.

 

The Economic Scenario

 

India's GDP growth rate slipped to 6.5 per cent in 2011 -12, the worst in nine years, on account of decline in almost all segments including agriculture and manufacturing. This indicates a slowdown compared not just to the previous two years, when the economy grew by 8.4%, but also from 2003 to 2011.

Government is taking various measures to combat this situation with various revival packages and easing of interest rate from the Reserve bank of India. India's GDP growth for 2012-13 is expected to recover to 7.6 per cent from 6.5 per cent in 2011 -12. Easing supply constraints, coupled with a fall in inflation and a gradual easing in interest rates, will aid growth in real output. Growth in the industrial output is expected to accelerate to 6.8% after slowingto4.1% in2011-12.

 

Liquidity conditions eased in April 2012 compared to the stressed conditions witnessed in March. Average borrowings dropped to Rs.1 lakh crore from Rs.1.5 lakh crore in March on higher government spending. As a result, short term yields eased across all tenures in April 2012.

 

Industrial production is expected to accelerate to 6.9 per cent in 2012-13 from 3.9% estimated for 2011-12. The growth is expected to be driven by easing of supply constraints, particularly in the mining sector and a further acceleration in generation of electricity.

 

The growth the manufacturing sector too is expected to improve to 5.9 %, owing to a rise in purchasing power of both urban and rural consumers, improvement in availability of raw materials and huge capacity additions. Industrial and infrastructural projects worth Rs.4.2 lakh crore are estimated to have got commissioned in 2011 -12. Project commissioning is expected to go up further to Rs.5.8 lakh Millions in 2012-13.

 

INDUSTRY SCENARIO

 

EPCand Infrastructure Sector

The sector has been hit by several problems including a slowdown in new orders, delay in regulatory clearances and land acquisition. This coupled with high interest rates has significantly reduced the profitability of companies operating in the sector.

Last year also saw a considerable slowdown in the investment momentum, which was the fallout of deferred government decisions and projects that were scheduled to be commissioned were getting delayed.

After suffering a major setback last year due to policy delays, the infrastructure industry is expecting improvement in the situation this year.

 

Government is taking various measures to review the sector, Financial institutions have been allowed to raise about Rs 60,0000.000 Millions from tax-free bonds in 2012-13, Contracts to build 8,800 km of roads in 2012-13 has been awarded.

They believe that all these measure and other sincere efforts from the Government will definitely help in revival of the sector in coming years.

 

Real estate

 

Global economic uncertainties have affected India's economy, including the real estate market. There were several headwinds that prevented the sector from delivering to its full potential.

 

The Indian real estate sector is among the fastest growing sectors in the Indian economy with a potential to sustain this momentum as the economy continues to grow at a healthy pace and income levels continue to rise in the coming years. The contribution of the housing and real estate sector to the GDP in India has been crucial.

Indian real estate developers have adapted to the changing dynamics of the real estate market, post the global financial crisis, with the rapid rate of urbanisation playing a significant role in their strategic plans. Moderation in demand during current times is expected to regain its pre-crisis growth momentum in the near future with growing demand in all three areas viz residential, commercial and retail space. In the long-run, growth in the Indian real estate industry is expected to be driven by the rise in infrastructure spending by government, which in turn, will provide a thrust to real estate development.

 

Company Performance EPC Business

 

During last year, EPC business have witnessed a slow down and thus contributed Rs. 4300.000 Millions against Rs. 7060.000 Millions a year earlier to the total revenue.

HDILand TNLA, which came to a halt for almost 1 year, resulting in loss of revenue of about Rs. 2000.000 Millions, coupled with slowdown in other projects due to general macro economic conditions affecting the sector.

 

The Company is taking various steps and making all efforts to settle the challenges faced in respect of order execution. The Company is confident that these efforts will result in getting the run rate back on track in the near future.
