Mar 31, 2018

The Directors present before you the 32nd Annual Report of your Company on business & operations together with Audited Financial Statements and the Auditor’s Report for the year ending 31st March 2018.

Operation and Future Prospects

India has maintained a growth rate of above 6.5% (RBI estimates 6.6%). India is one of the fastest growing among major economies of the world. The Government under Prime Ministership of Mr. Narendra Modi is moving forward with “Sab ka Sath Sab kaVikas” as its main agenda. Demonetization of currency and introduction of GST had its operational problems and has affected the economy in shortterm. It is expected to give positive results in a long term. The organized sector is performing betteron the implementation of G S T. However the unorganized sector has been very badly hit by its implementation. Inflation and interest rates are also marginally higher. This will continue, mainly because of global rise in petrol prices and other national and international economic factors. Petrol and diesel prices are at near all time high. A Major benefit of demonetization is seen in the huge increase in average monthly investments in the mutual funds which stood Rs. 5,600 crores per month in 2017-18. As such we have witnessed a big and continued investments by the Mutual Funds in the Capital Markets. Upcoming State and National elections, national and international factors, geo political situations have resulted in prolit booking/ disinvestments by international investors. RBI has expected a growth rate of 7.4% in the economy in the current year. Positive actions by the Govt., good monsoon may result in good sentiments and the foreign investors may start investing in Indian stocks again. The “Nifty & Sensex” are at near all time high levels. We expect the markets to move positively but shall remain volatile and consolidate in times to come. Financial Results

Dear Members,

Operation and Future Prospects

Prolonged economic crisis, particularly in the Euro zone, crude price hike, high import of crude & Gold, weakening of Rupee, high current account deficit lead to very slow growth of GDPGDP grew @4.70% PA in F.Y.2013-14.This has kept the market quite dull in most part of the last financial year. Only at the end of last quarter some positive movement has taken place because of the expectation of change in the Government with the general elections. However Loksabha election in April -May 2014 has given a decisive mandate in favor of BJP lead NDA. The New Government under Priministership of Mr. Narendra Modi has assumed office and are moving forward with Growth and Governance as its main agenda. It is presumed that the projects which was held up for a long period of time shall be resumed. Expectation of Growth led good governance, policy actions, have resulted in good sentiments and the foreign investors have stated investments in Indian stocks in a big way. This has lead to a sense in "Nifty & Sensex" to all time high levels. We expect the markets to move positively after some consolidation in times to come.

TO THE MEMBERS

The Directors present before you the 27th Annual Report together with Audited Accounts for the year ending 31 st March, 2013.

Operation and Future Prospects

Prolonged economic crisis, particularly in the Euro zone, crude price hike, high import of crude & Gold, weakening of Rupee, high current account deficit had lead to a further fall in the GDP growth rate of the countries from 6.2% to 5% in 2013. This along with high inflation, high interest rate has resulted in the slowdown of the economy. This has resulted in the averseness to Industrial growth. Further the inability of the Govt, to pursue reforms and implement its policies because of its political compulsions, scams and issues of corruptions, inactiveness of Govt, machineries have brought the business confidence levels to its lowest. We have biggest ever current account deficit. With the indications of good monsoon and the cooling down of the crude and commodity prices, lowering of inflation & interest rates, if coupled with a strong Govt action on policy implementation may take few of quarters to again start moving on the growth trajectory. Both the capital markets and the interest rate markets are expected to remain volatile in near future.

The Directors present before you the 26th Annual Report together with Audited Accounts for the year ending 31 st March 2012.

Operation and Future Prospects

The Global melt down, Euro zone crises and recession backed by the continuing crude price hike gave a significant hit to the Indian economy last year. The GDP growth rate has fallen down to 6.5% in 2012. The Country had started facing, food and non food inflation. The RBI had to intervene and is still trying to fight it. It had to increase interest rate 13 times in rapid succession to check inflation. The effect of this had resulted in a slowdown in the economy. This has started affecting all interest rate sensitive and infra projects. Quite a number of projects have been put on hold or delayed. The rising oil prices and the fall in the value of Rupee, mounting pressure on the subsidy bill, negative balance of payment are posing a continuous threat to the economy. Indian economy is facing a typical problem of having to manage between high inflation and fast economic growth. Further the inability of the Govt. to pursue reforms and implement its policies because of its political compulsions, scams and issues of corruptions, in activeness of Govt. machineries has brought the business confidence levels to its lowest. This has resulted in a substantial decrease in the capital inflow. We are hoping on good monsoon and the cooling down of the crude price. This if coupled with a strong Govt action on policy implementation may take couple of quarters to again start moving on the growth trajectory. The Govt. expects to maintain the growth rate of the economy at about 7% for the current year. Both the capital markets and the interest rate markets are expected to remain volatile in near future.

The Directors present before you the 24th Annual Report together with Audited Accounts For the year ending 31st March 2010. Operation and Future Prospects

This years overview has to be studied with caution. The Global melt down and rescission has given a significant hit to the Indian economy last year. The GDP growth rate has fallen down to 7.40% in 2010.The Indian economy is no longer insulated from the major economies of the world. Because of economic meltdown, The Government had to announce multiple stimulus packages for different industries which has given positive results. RBI had also played a very proactive roll in inflation and liquidity management. This has resulted in increase in fiscal deficit but it has helped trouble some industries like automobile, cement, steel etc. to wither out global impact. The economy is looking up towards growth and is expected to recover by the end of this financial year. Improvement in advance tax numbers is an indicative factor for the recovery. The monsoon is expected to be normal and in time which will also help in maintaining growth in agriculture sector. In spite of adverse situation in most European economies and other leading world economy, India is the fastest growing economy after China and will outperform the rest of the world. It is expected that the GDP shall grow® 8% to 8.5% this year.

In spite of the fact that the Govt, has taken adequate measures to support the inclusive growth of the economy, inflation management, specially food inflation still remains a major issue for the Govt. How ever the Government is confident that it shall succeed in controlling food inflation by the end of the financial year 2010-2011. This along with other positive economic indicators the investment sentiments remains positive and we are seeing inflow of investments in the Capital Market. The market is expected to perform relatively better incoming times .Howeuer the Global economic situation will keep the capital markets turbulent and volatile.
