Outlook

 

The infrastructure industry is expecting a marginal improvement in this year, after suffering a major setback. The Government of India has taken measures to stabilize the economy and revive the sentiments which are expected to have positive effects for the economy in medium to long term. The slow growth in the infrastructure sector was primarily driven by a range of sector-specific issues, such as land acquisition, environmental clearances, high interest rate regime and macro-economic factors. The Company is prepared to capture the growth in the high end, focused to meet the challenges and is committed to deliver the best in adding value to the company.

 

Financial Performance

 

During the year, The financial highlights are:

 

• The income from operations was Rs. 7615.400 Millions in FY 2012-2013

 

• The EBDIT was Rs. 406.600 Millions in FY 2012-13

 

• The Company incurred a Net Loss of Rs. 360.300 Millions in FY 2012-13

 

While the assets created by MARG are poised for growth and value creation in the long run, due to the present economic situation and allied reasons, there is a temporary cash-flow mismatch. This has put some pressure on the current liquidity situation in MARG and its ability to service debts. Managing this temporary cash-flow mismatch will go a long way in ensuring that the value creation envisaged by all the projects in the mid and longer term are intact.

 

As part of the initiatives to achieve this, the Company has discussed with all the bankers and bilaterally renegotiated most of the loans with principal / interest moratorium and extended repayment period, matching the cash flow generation capabilities of the Company. Further, Management has also tightened up more the cost monitoring initiatives by ensuring that optimum levels of resources are deployed, leveraging maximum efficiency. These measures have improved the cash flow position and has also allowed the Management to concentrate on the business development and execution.
