These are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these statements as a result of certain factors. The Board is cautiously optimistic about the future outlook taking into overall view of the above.

SWOT ANALYSIS OF THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY:

Strengths: The industrial output can be positively compared with most of the developed countries. IT/ITeS and industries are still expected to grow, creating employment opportunities and job stability. Rising disposable incomes and a growing middle class will also ensure robust housing demand and overall growth for real estate in India.

Moreover, Foreign Direct Investments in various sectors will continue to fuel the economy and open more doors. The Land Bill as well as the Real Estate Regulatory Bill will bring about more transparency in the long term, hence making investments more attractive.

The above fundamentals automatically create demand for more housing and also tend to support infrastructure such as retail, office, hospitality, health care, entertainment and lifestyle business.

Weakness: The recent past has been a little gloomy with unstable government policies, indecisiveness and inconsistencies in issues related to tax and other involved arenas. Such situations tend to hamper the overall business landscape leading to sluggish growth, directly impacting the real estate sector.

Excessive red tape and long approval gestation periods increase delivery time and make the business riskier, hence increasing the overall cost of projects. Scarcity of capital available for real estate, with RBI curbs in this sector, results in increasing the cost of capital.

High inflation rate has been pushing construction costs up and this, combined with the high cost of capital will lead to steep pricing. Frivolous litigations and unclear land titles has plagued this industry. Lack of transparency has hampered further investments in this field with investors focusing on other secure markets.

SEGMENT-WISE OR PRODUCT-WISE PERFORMANCE:

The Company is engaged in the business of real estate construction and engineering focused solutions, accordingly this is the only single reportable segment.
