INDIAN ECONOMY OVERVIEW:
Global economies which were impacted by uncertainties and volatility on account of
Covid-19 fallout prolonged
geopolitical conflicts and monetary tightening by central banks amidst inflationary trends
are witnessing gradual
resurgence, marked by waning fears of recession and rebounding growth in major economies.
However, there are some
regional incongruences, with some regions experiencing subdued economic activity on
account of geopolitical tensions.
Globally, inflation management continues to remain a key priority. Despite these
challenges, leading indicators suggest
an overall expansion in economic activity driven by both manufacturing and service
sectors.
India remains a bright spot in the revival of the global economy. The Indian economy
continued to exhibit robust
economic performance with broad-based growth across sectors. RBI also, in its recent MPC
meeting, noted the strong
growth momentum in the economy and projected real GDP growth for 2024-25 at 7 percent,
driven by a pickup in rural
demand and sustained momentum in the manufacturing sector. In its April 2024 WEO, IMF
revised upwards its estimate
of Indias GDP growth for FY 2023-24 to 7.8 percent and of estimated a growth rate 6.8
percent in 2024-25 based on its
assessment of strength In domestic demand and demographic advantage. In March 2024, India
witnessed a surge across
multiple economic indicators, reflecting robust and resilient business activity. The month
marked significant milestones,
from record-breaking performances in the stock market to remarkable advancements in tax
revenue collection. The
buoyancy extended to the manufacturing and services sectors, as evidenced by the soaring
HSBC India Manufacturing
PMI and Services PMI. The gross GST collections for the month of April 2024 hit a record
high of 2.10 lakh crore which is
a growth of 12.4 per cent year-on-year. In March 2024, the HSBC India Manufacturing PMI
surged to an impressive 59.2,
a notable increase from the final figure of 56.9 recorded in the previous month. This
marks the fastest growth in factory
activity since February 2008.
In March, Indias services sector hit a peak, with exports surging to a fiscal year
high. The HSBC India Services PMI soared
to 61.2, marking one of the sectors most significant expansions in sales and business
activity in nearly 14 years.
The Index of Industrial Production (IIP) for February 2024 brought forth encouraging
insights into Indias industrial
landscape.
High inflation though, was a key challenge for the Government and this has resulted in
RBI holding on to high policy rates
and rise in lending rates.
Overall, India continues to be the fastest-growing major economy with positive
assessments of the growth outlook for
the current financial year, for India by international organizations and RBI.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW: Xofratecb Limited
Indian Agricultural Sector Overview
Agriculture and allied sectors continue to remain one of the most important sectors of
the Indian economy and is the
main source of livelihood for 55% of Indias population.
India has the worlds largest cattle herd, the largest area planted for wheat, rice,
and cotton, and is the largest producer
of milk, pulses, and spices in the world. It is the second largest producer of fruit,
vegetables, tea, farmed fish, cotton,
sugarcane, wheat, rice, cotton, and sugar. The agriculture sector in India holds the
record for second-largest agricultural
land in the world generating employment for about half of the countrys population. Thus,
farmers become an integral
part of the sector to provide us with a means of sustenance.
The agriculture and allied sectors have remained resilient throughout the pandemic and
geopolitical conflicts and is
estimated to have grown by 0.7% in Financial Year 2024-25, as per Second Advance Estimates
by Central Statistical Office
(CSO).
Foodgrains production declined in kharif season due to deficient and unevenly
distributed rainfall (both spatially and
temporally) along with depleting reservoir levels. As of March 28, 2024 reservoir levels
were at 35 per cent of the full
capacity, below the last years level of 43 percent.
Foodgrains production for 2023-24 is estimated at 3,093.5 lakh tonnes, 1.3 per cent
lower than the final estimates of last
year (as per Second Advance Estimates). Among major crops, the output of rice declined
while that of wheat rose. Pulses
production dropped with a sharp decline recorded during the kharif season.
Among commercial crops, the output of oilseeds, cotton and sugarcane registered a sharp
decline vis-i-vis last year. As
per the First Advance Estimates (FAE), the production of horticultural crops during
2023-24 was laced at 355.3 million
tonnes, marginally lower than the final estimates of 2022-23 and 1.2 per cent higher than
the FAE of 2022-23.
The high frequency indicators exhibit a mixed picture of rural activity as two-wheeler
sales, agriculture credit and
MNREGA demand indicate buoyancy while tractor sales and fertiliser sales suggest some
softness in activity during H2.
Prospects of rural activity, however, appear bright due to better prospects of
agricultural output amidst the IMDs
forecast of an above normal south-west monsoon in 2024 and accelerated pick up in informal
sector activity.
The interim budget for FY24-25 has promised stepping up of value addition in
agricultural sector and boosting farmers
income and has made substantial budgetary allocations as below:
Interim Budget Financial Year 24-2S - Highlights for the agriculture sector
The allocation for the Agriculture ministry has been set at 1.27 lakh
crore exhibiting an Increase from revised
estimates of L16 lakh crore in FY 23-24.
Outlay for agriculture and allied activities enhanced to "1.47 trillion

efficient supply chains, primary and secondary processing, as well as marketing and
branding. In view of the above
mentioned, agriculture output is expected to remain robust and the sector is likely
to continue on a growth path.

initiating policies that would ensure the countrys time-bound creation of world-class
infrastructure.

Key factors affecting the Results of Operations:
Our Companys future results of operations could be affected potentially by the following factors:
Political condition: In case of political instability, government could change
the spending pattern on
infrastructure. This change in policy framework can affect our business.
Stringent condition of our contract: Most of our contracts are time bound as
well as put a condition of meeting
the minimum standard requirement of such construction. Contract may stipulate penalty
condition for non-

with changing inflation rates, we rework our margins so as to absorb the inflationary
impact.
OPPORTUNITIES, STRENGTHS, CONCERNS Infratech Limited
Opportunities and Strengths
Increase market share In existing business verticals : Several
sectors in which your Company operates are largely
unorganized, therefore, cost leadership is a key enabler for your Company to increase the
market share of its products in
those segments. The Companys ability to increase sales will be strengthened by continued
focus on offering a wide range
of innovative products across all business verticals which will help in gaining market
share. Additionally, in the medium-
term, due to supply chain disruption and lack of liquidity leading to the closure of
smaller business units, larger players
with strong balance sheets will gain market share.
Pan-India presence with extensive supply and distribution network to benefit the
Company in the long-run r Your
Company has a pan-India presence and operations spanning across 5 (five) business
verticals. The Company has set up
processing facilities and supporting infrastructure as well as R&D to develop a modern
operating platform across key
agriculture verticals. As a result of its widespread network and significant operational
experience, the Company is well
placed to identify key market trends and introduce a range of innovative and value-added
products in the market to cater
to the evolving needs of the customers. The nationwide footprint also allows the Company
to leverage the competitive
advantages of each location to enhance competitiveness and reduce geographic and political
risks in businesses.
Diversified businesses with synergies in operations :
Segmental and geographical diversification across business
verticals provide a hedge against the risks associated with any particular industry
segment or geography while benefiting
from the synergies of operating in diverse but related businesses. Synergies across
diverse businesses provide the ability
to drive growth, optimize capital efficiency and maintain competitive advantage. The
Company also derives operational
efficiencies by centralizing and sharing certain key functions across businesses such as
finance, legal, information
technology, strategy, procurement and human resources.
Strong Research & Development (R&D) Capabilities : The
Companys emphasis on R&D has been critical to its success
and a differentiating factor from competitors. Dedicated R&D is undertaken in existing
products primarily with a focus to
Improve yields and process efficiencies. Investment is also being made in developing
innovative technologies to further
grow our product portfolio across businesses.
Focus on inorganically growing business offerings : Your Company will
evaluate inorganic growth opportunities, in
keeping with the strategy to grow and develop market share or to add new product
categories. Your Company may
consider opportunities for inorganic growth, such as through mergers and acquisitions, if,
amongst other things, they
consolidate market position in existing business verticals or achieve operating leverage
in key markets by unlocking
potential efficiency and synergy benefits. Your Company can also look at opportunities
that will strengthen and expand
its product portfolio and increase its sales and distribution network.
Threats, Risk & Concerns
Unfavourable local and global weather patterns can have an adverse effect on the
business: As an agri-based
Company, the businesses are sensitive to weather conditions, including extremes such as
drought and natural disasters.
The availability of raw materials required for operations and the demand for products may
be adversely affected by
longer than usual periods of heavy rainfall In certain regions or a drought in India. The
occurrence of any unfavourable
weather patterns may adversely affect business, results of operations and financial
condition.
? Availability of raw materials and arrangements with suppliers for raw
materials: Each of the businesses depends on
the availability of reasonably priced, high-quality raw materials in the quantities
required by operations. The price and
availability of such raw materials depend on several factors beyond the Companys control,
including overall economic
conditions, production levels, market demand and competition for such materials,
production and transportation cost,
duties and taxes and trade restrictions. The Company typically sources raw materials from
third-party suppliers or the
open market which exposes the Company to volatility in the prices of raw materials and
dependence on third-party for
delivery of raw material. Also, any inability to procure raw materials from alternate
suppliers in a timely fashion, or on
commercially acceptable terms, may adversely affect operations.
Improper handling, processing or storage of raw materials or products: The
products that your Company
manufactures or processes are subject to risks such as contamination, adulteration and
product tampering during their
manufacturing, transport or storage. Inherent business risks exist in form of product
liability or recall claims if products
fail to meet the required quality standards or are alleged to result In harm to customers.
Such risks may be controlled,
but not eliminated, by adherence to good manufacturing practices and finished product
testing. Although the Company
has product liability insurance cover for domestic and international markets for
businesses, it cannot assure that this
insurance coverage is adequate or that any losses will be adequately compensated by the
insurers in the event of a
product liability claim.
Seasonal variations in the businesses: Your Companys businesses are subject to
seasonal variations that could result in
fluctuations in performance. For example, in the animal feed business, the Company sells
lower volumes of cattle feed
during the monsoons due to the availability of green fodder. In the poultry and processed
foods business, the demand for
poultry products is higher in the second half of the Financial Year since the consumption
of poultry meat and eggs is
higher during winter months, while the sale of such products is lower during certain
religious festivals. As a result of such
seasonal fluctuations, sales and results of operations may vary by fiscal quarter. The
sales and results of operations of any
given fiscal quarter may not be relied upon as indicators of the sales or results of
operations of other fiscal quarters or
future performance. In addition, financial performance is also impacted by other risks
such as inability to manage
diversified operations, dependency of revenue from animal feed business and dependency of
the utilization of services of
third parties for our operations.
INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM AND ADEQUACY :
Internal Control Systems has been designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets
are safeguarded, transactions
are executed in accordances with managements authorization and properly recorded and
accounting records are
adequate for preparation of financial statements and other financial information. Internal
check is conducted on a
periodical basis to ascertain the adequacy and effectiveness of internal control systems.

OPPOBTUNmES AND THREATS: lofnrtecfa Limited
The performance of capital market in India has a direct correlation with the prospect
of economic growth and political
stability. Though the growth projections for FY. 2024-25 appear reasonable, there are
certain downside risks such as pace
and shape of global recovery, effect of withdrawal of fiscal stimulus and hardening of
commodity prices. Our business
performance may also be impacted by increased competition from local and global players
operating in India, regulatory
changes and attrition of employees. With growing presence of players offering advisory
service coupled with provision of
funds for the clients needs, we would face competition of unequal proportion.
