Global Economy Overview:
According to the World Economic Situation and Prospects as of mid-2024, the world economy is now projected to grow by 2.7 per cent in 2024 (+0.3 percentage points from the January forecast) and 2.8 per cent in 2025 (+0.1 percentage points from the January forecast). On balance, the near-term economic outlook is only cautiously optimistic as economic vulnerabilities remain, amid persistently high interest rates, continuing geopolitical tensions, and increasing climate risks. Unmet revenue expectations have ushered in a new wave of pragmatism where maintaining a healthy profit margin has become pivotal for corporations due to the uncertain macro outlook. In extreme cases, organizations resorted to cost-cutting measures, such as reducing headcount and cutting discretionary spending. The global real estate sectors outlook for the financial year 2024-25 reflects a mix of opportunities and challenges influenced by economic, demographic, and technological trends. Continued urbanization, especially in emerging markets, drives demand for residential and commercial properties. Post-pandemic economic recovery boosts investor confidence and increases real estate transactions.
Indian Economy Overview:
Indias economy continues to grow at a steady and confident pace, standing out as the fastest growing major economy in the world. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a measure of size and health of the economy. It is the total value of all the goods and services produced within a country. In 2024-25, real GDP growth was estimated at 6.5 per cent. The Reserve Bank of India expects the same rate to continue in 2025-26. This performance comes at a time when the global economy faces uncertainty, making Indias steady momentum all the more significant.
Supported by strong domestic demand, easing inflation, robust capital markets and rising exports, the broader economic picture is one of resilience and balance. Key indicators such as record foreign exchange reserves, a manageable current account deficit, and increasing foreign investment reflect growing global trust in Indias long-term prospects. Together, these trends show an economy that is not only expanding but doing so with strength across sectors.

Outlook
The Directors are under the process of exploring other avenues of diversifying into new areas of business.
Risk and concerns
Key factor in determining a companys performance is the companys ability to manage the risks in its business/environment effectively. Many risks exist in a companys operating environment, and they emerge on a regular basis, Viz Currency Risk, Commodity price Risk, Human Resource Risk. Risk management is embedded in the operating framework of your Company. Your Company believes that managing risks helps in maximizing returns. The risk management framework is reviewed periodically by the Board and the Audit Committee. Like any other industry, the retail industry is also exposed to the risk of competition, government policies, fluctuation of commodity prices, natural factors like change in climate etc.
The Company is concerned about prevailing exposure norms, financial position, entry of new players in the market, rising competition from banks & multilateral agencies, uncertain business environment, fluctuation in rupee, likely increase in cost of capital due to volatile market conditions. Further, the state of business and policy environment in the country also has a cascading effect on the interest-rate regime, cost and availability of raw materials and gestation period & capital outlays required for raw material.
Opportunities and Threats:
Opportunities:
1. Market Diversification & Risk Spreading
Operating in multiple sectors helps reduce dependence on a single market.
Can shift focus depending on which sector is booming (e.g., gold in uncertain times, agri during stable growth].
2. Emerging Markets Growth
Strong demand in developing economies for construction materials, agri-products, and pharmaceuticals.
Expanding middle classes increase consumption of fabrics and medicines.
3. E-Commerce & Digital Trading Platforms
Online platforms enable global reach and direct-to-customer opportunities, especially for pharma, fabrics, and shares.
Blockchain technology can enhance transparency in diamond & gold trades.
4. Global Supply Chain Restructuring
Companies seeking new trade partners post-COVID, creating entry opportunities for agile traders.
Nearshoring and reshoring efforts open new sourcing and supply deals.
5. Sustainable & Ethical Products Demand
Rising demand for ethically sourced diamonds and gold.
Organic and sustainable agricultural products have growing international demand.
6. Government Trade Incentives
Many countries offer export-import benefits, tax reliefs, and subsidies in sectors like agri, pharma, and construction.
7. Strategic Partnerships
Opportunity to form alliances with manufacturers, producers, and miners to control supply chains and increase profit margins.
8. Stock Market Volatility
Active shares trading can capitalize on market fluctuations with proper risk management. Threats:
1. Regulatory Challenges
High compliance burden across multiple sectors (e.g., pharma approvals, mining licenses, agri-export restrictions].
Sudden regulatory changes can disrupt operations (e.g., gold import duties, seed export bans].
2. Geopolitical Instability
Trade wars, sanctions, and regional conflicts can interrupt global supply chains.
Diamond and gold markets are especially sensitive to political risks.
3. Currency Volatility
Operating across borders exposes the company to FX risks, especially in commodity trading.
4. Commodities Price Volatility
Prices of rough diamonds, gold, agricultural goods, and construction materials are highly volatile.
Sharp drops can affect margins; price spikes can affect purchasing ability.
5. Supply Chain Disruptions
Any issue in logistics (e.g., port closures, shipping delays] can impact deliveries and customer satisfaction.
6. Counterfeit or Substandard Goods
High risk in pharma, fabrics, and even gold (e.g., fake bullion] which can damage brand and invite legal action.
7. Environmental and Ethical Scrutiny
Diamonds and gold industries face reputational risk related to "conflict minerals."
Agri-products face scrutiny over pesticide use and sustainability.
8. Market Saturation or Over-Competition
Shares trading, pharma distribution, and even agri-commodities are highly competitive with thin margins.
Bigger players can undercut smaller trading companies.
9. Technological Disruption
Automation and blockchain could bypass traditional traders.
Direct-to-consumer platforms and smart contracts reduce intermediary roles.
