INTRODUCTION

Management Discussion and Analysis mainly comprises of the statements which, inter-alia, involve predictions based on perceptions and may, therefore, be prone to uncertainties. It is the sum total of the Companys expectations, beliefs, estimates and projections which are forward looking within the meaning of applicable laws and regulations. The actual results could differ materially from those expressed herein specifically or impliedly.

Global Economic Overview :

The global economy in the year 2022 has been very ambiguous. The war in Ukraine has triggered a costly humanitarian crisis that demands a peaceful resolution. At the same time, economic damage from the conflict will contribute to a significant slowdown in global growth in 2023 and add to inflation. Fuel and food prices have increased rapidly, hitting vulnerable populations in low-income countries hardest. According to the IMF (International Monetary Fund), global growth is projected to slow from an estimated forecast to fall from 3.4% in 2022 to 2.8% in 2023, before settling at 3.0% in 2024. Advanced economies are expected to see an especially pronounced growth slowdown, from 2.7 % in 2022 to 1.3 % in 2023. The baseline forecast is for growth to fall from 3.4 % in 2022 to 2.8 % in 2023, before settling at 3.0 % in 2024. Advanced economies are expected to see an especially pronounced growth slowdown, from 2.7 % in 2022 to 1.3 % in 2023.

 

Indian Economy Overview :

Indias growth continues to be resilient despite some signs of moderation in growth, says the World Bank in its latest India Development Update, the World Bank Indias biannual flagship publication. The Update notes that although significant challenges remain in the global environment, India was one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Indias GDP is estimated to have grown by 6.9 % in F.Y. 2022 after growth slid to 4.6 % in January-March quarter (Q4 F.Y. 2023), data released on 31st May by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation showed. Growth likely slowed down in the first quarter of the calendar year 2022 because of the Russia-Ukraine war. The high growth figure is largely due to a favourable base effect, with the economy having contracted by 6.6 % in F.Y. 2022 because of the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war which restricted economic activity.

The overall growth remains robust and is estimated to be 6.9 % for the full year with real GDP growing 7.7 % year-on-year during the first three quarters of fiscal year 2022-23. There were some signs of moderation in the second half of FY 2022-23

 

Industry Structure and Development - Overview :

Investment business is the professional business of various securities (shares, bonds, etc.) and other assets (e.g., real estate), to meet specified investment goals for the benefit of investors. Investors may be institutions (insurance companies, pension funds, corporations etc.) or private investors (both directly via investment contracts and more commonly via collective investment schemes e.g., mutual funds).

 

Opportunities And Threats Opportunities:

Investing in a securities market, also called investing in stocks and bonds, is one of the primary ways to build wealth through capital appreciation - an increase in the securities value over time.

Investing is challenging, can be exciting and is a learning experience. Selecting stocks to invest in doesnt require an advanced degree in finance, but it does require careful research and keeping up with current economic trends.

Its a great thrill to participate in a bull market - one in which stocks go up in price - and watch the value of your investments climb week by week. Your Directors believe that there are tremendous long-term growth opportunities in emerging markets.

 

Threats:

Finally, we need to consider threats to the company. Again, threats can be internal as well as external. In fact, the internal threats usually come first, which opens the door to external threats. Therefore, its important to do a good threat analysis. Any internal problem is a threat to the companys well-being and should be evaluated alongside the external threats.

Some possible threats are :

• Internal obstacles the company is facing.

• Cash flow problems.

• The relative position of the companys largest competitors.

• Technological advances in the industry (if the company isnt keeping pace).

 

Future Outlook :

Your Company intends to invest in businesses related to infrastructure, telecommunication, soft ware etc. and wide variety of products and services in the coming years since it sees good prospect in these areas.It would definitely try to establish itself and remain as a strong player in the finance industry. With the Capital market expected to be in a better mode than the previous few years and with our efforts we can look forward to a prosperous year for the company.

 

Internal Control Systems and their adequacy :

The Company has in place adequate internal control systems and procedures commensurate with the size and nature of its business. These procedures are designed to ensure :

• That all assets and resources are used efficiently and are adequately protected;

• That all internal policies and statutory guidelines are compiled within letter & spirit;

• The accuracy and timing of financial reports and management information.

 

Material Development in Human Resources/industrial relations front number of people employed :

The Company believes that people are the key ingredient to the success of an organization. Looking after people makes good business sense because, if people are motivated, service excellence will follow. The relations remain cordial throughout the year between employees and the management. The Company recognizes the importance and contribution of its Human resources for its growth and development and is committed to the development of its people.
