shalimar agencies ltd Management discussions


This Management Discussion and Analysis Report addresses the expectations and Projections of the company for its future, about its Market Position, Market Development and Penetration, Expenditure, Financial Results, Risks and Concerns etc. However, the expectations shared herein are not limited to the Companys Growth. The Companys actual results, performance or achievements could differ from those shared herein.

Along with this noticeable acceleration in the growth rate of the Indian economy, Indias per capita income has increased at a rapid pace, levitating India into the middle-income category thus strengthening the economy even further from its roots. Simultaneously, the rising consumer demand has provided a further growth avenue for Indian firms making the domestic economy more robust.

However, while the long-term story remains positive, there are challenges in the short-term that will need to be addressed. These include high inflation, rising commodity prices, all time high oil prices, increasing fiscal deficits, global uncertainties and a variable domestic political scenario. However, given the structural shifts that have already taken place across the economy, we believe that we today stand on a strong foundation that will support sustained growth despite the short-term challenges that may emerge time and again.

On the other hand, our Management declares that, the financial statements have been prepared incompliance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 2013 guidelines issued by the Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in India.

Capital Market

The Indian financial sector is demonstrating sustained momentum. In recent years, reforms in the equity capital markets including continuous strengthening of the regulatory environment by SEBI, market-determined prices and allocation of resources, screen-based nation-wide trading, T+2 settlement, scripless settlement and electronic transfer of securities, rolling settlement and derivatives trading have greatly improved the efficiency of trading and settlement. The industry is also becoming more vibrant, with new categories of products and services being offered to meet the needs of an emerging economy.

In addition, the growth of the economy and Indian corporations has coincided with a sharp increase in foreign direct investment, including significant participation from private equity firms, a marked increase in investment in the real estate sector, increasing M&A activity, strong equity IPO market and a growing demand for credit from both corporations and consumers. With it, there has been a proliferation in the presence of intermediaries such as investment banks and securities firms that closely monitor the performance of the markets and provide extensive fundamental and technical research on the economy, sectors and companies. All of this has contributed significantly to the growth of the Indian capital markets.

Equity Market

The equity market comprising Private Equity, Primary Offerings and Secondary Offerings has emerged as one of the most preferred mode of fund mobilization for India Inc. Real estate, infrastructure, banking and financial services were the dominant sectors attracting about 55% of the total private equity investments.

The Indian equity markets have witnessed a strong rally since 2014 with the benchmark BSE Sensex crossing the 65,000 mark setting a historical high. Though the markets have seen some correction since then, the underlying drivers for the market, viz. strong domestic economic growth and growing corporate profitability remain intact, leading to committed international and domestic investor interest.

However, in the short-term from time-to-time there will be challenges that will temper the outlook in the interim term.
