Rationale for the decrease in revenue generated from Corporate Interiors segment and BOT segment in FY2025
CORPORATE INTERIORS - FY 2024-25
The revenue from the corporate Interiors segment declined in FY 2024-24, primarily due to reduction in tenders awarded to the company. This led to reduction of 10.86% revenue from corporate interiors.
BOT SEGMENT - FY 2024-25
The company did not bid for any new BOT projects during the year, as they were assessed to be financially unviable. For existing projects, a customer sale agreement was executed; however, revenue was not recognized due to pending fulfillment of criteria under the companys revenue recognition policy. The details of the same are mentioned Annexure 34 of "Financial Information" on page 256 of Red Herring Prospectus.
Rationale for the decrease in revenue generated from Corporate Interiors segment in FY2023 and the BOT segment in FY2024:
CORPORATE INTERIORS - FY 2022-23
The revenue from the Corporate Interiors segment declined significantly in FY 2022-23, primarily due to a reduction in the overall order inflow and the Companys total turnover during the year. The Companys revenue
Low Opening Order Book: As on March 31, 2022, the order book for the interiors segment stood at only Rs. 10.22 crore, which limited the revenue potential for the ensuing financial year.
Limited Tender Awards: Although the Company participated in 62 interior tenders worth approximately Rs. 176.85 crore during FY 2022-23, it secured only 9 tenders, collectively valued at Rs. 20.05 crore. This low conversion rate significantly impacted segmental revenue.
Political Instability: The State of Maharashtra experienced a period of political uncertainty, including the split of a major political party and a shift in the ruling coalition. This instability led to a noticeable decline in the issuance of high-value government tenders.
Intensified Market Competition: With fewer tenders available, the market became highly competitive. Many infrastructure players resorted to undercutting prices to win contracts, making it difficult for the Company to secure projects at sustainable margins.
BOT SEGMENT - FY 2023-24:
The Company had undertaken a single BOT project, for which the Occupancy Certificate (OC) was obtained in February 2023. As per the project completion method of accounting, the revenue from units sold prior to obtaining the OC was recognized in FY 2022-23. Units sold after the OC, during FY 2023-24, were accordingly recognized in that fiscal year. However, since a significant portion of the revenue was already recognized in the earlier year, therefore the contribution from the BOT segment was lower in FY 2023-24.
Additionally, no new BOT projects have been awarded or undertaken by the Company in the past three years. As a result, maximum revenue from the existing project has already been recorded in FY 2022-23, leading to a natural decline in revenue from this segment in FY 2023-24.
Geographical Revenue breakup of the Company are as follows:

PAT margins of the company were increased from 6.41% in FY 2022-23 to 11.41% in FY 2023-24. This was due to the following reasons as mentioned below:
1. Reduction in Finance Cost:
During FY24, the Company repaid major portions of its short-term borrowings, resulting in a considerable decline in interest expenses. Finance costs reduced both in absolute terms and as a percentage of revenuefrom 3.93% in FY23 to 1.19% in FY24. This reduction significantly boosted net profitability and contributed approximately 88.4% to the overall increase in PAT.
Adjusted PAT Margin after interest:
FY24: 12.64%
FY23: 10.53%
2. Non-recurrence of Exceptional Expenses:
In FY23, the Company incurred several one-time expenses, including:
GST demand of Rs.233.68 lakhs
Write-off of debtors/advances worth Rs.55.96 lakhs
The absence of such exceptional items in FY24 helped control other expenses and improve the overall profit margin.
3. Improved Project Mix and Margin:
The Company executed a more profitable set of projects during FY24 compared to the prior year. In FY23, a portion of revenue was derived from a BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer) project with only 2% margin, which accounted for approximately 9.82% of total revenue, thereby diluting overall margins. In contrast, FY24 projects had significantly better profitability profiles, boosting bottom-line performance.
4. Impact of Deferred Tax Adjustment:
Deferred tax accounting also played a role in PAT movement. In FY23, there was a deferred tax expense of Rs.26.08 lakhs, whereas in FY24, there was a deferred tax income of Rs.22.83 lakhs, further contributing positively to the net profit.
