1. PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY:

Your Company has been since many years implementing various IT based projects for many Startups, Government agencies and established companies. The Company studies the customers IT requirements, identify pain points and accordingly design and plan their IT Hardware and Software infrastructure which includes security, networking, servers, storage, endpoints, operating systems, application software and ensure successful implementation for optimal performance.

Many small and medium size enterprises lack proper IT infrastructure and rely more on AMC providers for their IT requirements which get fulfilled on a short term basis mainly because the AMC companies lack the technical skills as well as the vision to design IT infrastructure based on growth plans. In addition, many more companies are looking to completely outsource their IT resources for day to day operations and maintenance. Cerebra can successfully help bridge this gap with its technical competencies and strategic tie-ups with leading MNC technology vendors such as IBM, Dell EMC, HP, Cisco, Fujitsu, Intel, Brocade, Fortinet, Checkpoint, Extreme Networks, Lenovo, Canon, TVSE, Brother, Samsung, Lexmark, Xerox, Radware, Array Networks, VMware, RHEL, Microsoft etc to name a few. Cerebra can design, supply, implement and maintain IT infrastructure for SMEs as well as large enterprises successfully.

Your Company''s continued focus to on research labs, airports, defense, PSUs, PSBs, etc has been fruitful and lead the Company successfully executing large orders from Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, Bharat Electronics Limited, Satish Dhawan Space Centre, ISTRAC, Centre for Airborne Systems, Defense Avionics Research Establishment, Transport Department - Government of Karnataka, Karnataka Power Corporation, Directorate of Electronic Delivery of Citizen Services (EDCS) - Bangalore One and Karnataka One Centres, Electrical Inspectorate, Karnataka State Remote Sensing Application Centre, Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board, etc., to name a few. The Company has also been successful in the higher education segment both in government as well as private institutions.

In addition, Cerebra has been adding new corporate customers in the retail, manufacturing and healthcare segments. Your Company also has been considered as a preferred vendor by many of these organizations. Cerebra has also strengthened its relationships with leading MNC OEM Brands and established itself as a key player especially in education, healthcare, defense, space and research lab segments while we stay focused on making a mark in other state and central government departments/bodies/PSUs and private enterprise companies.

Cerebra has recently completed execution of the prestigious project of augmentation of Bangalore One Centres, Karnataka One Centres and Electrical Inspectorate Offices across the state. Another prestigious project is the data centre set up at the Karnataka State Remote Sensing Application Centre. In addition, the ongoing project of Automated Driving Test System to fully automate the process of testing and issuance of driving license by the Department of Transport and Road Safety, Government of Karnataka has been implemented across 6 RTOs.

Enterprise Solutions Division (ESD)

Cerebra has been since many years implementing various IT based projects for many startups and established companies. The Company studies customers' IT requirements, identify pain points and accordingly design and plan their IT H/W & S/ W infrastructure which includes networking, servers, storage, endpoints, operating systems, application software and ensure successful implementation.

Many small and medium size enterprises lack proper IT infrastructure and rely more on AMC providers for their IT requirements which get fulfilled on a short term basis mainly because the AMC companies lack the technical skills as well as the vision to design IT infrastructure based on growth plans. In addition, many more companies are looking to completely outsource their IT resources for day to day operations and maintenance. Cerebra can successfully help bridge this gap with its technical competencies and strategic tie-ups with leading MNC technology vendors. Cerebra can design, implement and maintain IT infrastructure for SMEs as well as large enterprises successfully.

During the financial year 2014-2015, the continued focus on research labs, airports, defense, PSUs, PSBs, etc have been fruitful with Cerebra successfully executing large orders from. PSU's, Judiciary Department, Education, Medical etc.. . The Company has also been successful in closing deals in the Transport, higher education segment both in government as well as private institutions. In addition Cerebra has added new corporate customers in the retail, manufacturing & healthcare segments during the period. Cerebra is considered as a preferred vendor by many of these organizations. Cerebra has also strengthened its relationships with leading MNC OEM Brands and established itself as a key player especially in education, healthcare, defense, space & research lab segments while we stay focused on making a mark in other state & central government departments/bodies/PSUs.

With continued focus from the account managers in the Education, Healthcare, Retail, Defense, Space, PSU, PSB, Research Labs, Airport, Large Corporates, SMBs, etc. and incremental focus on AMC, FMS, Implementation & other services, your Company intends to bring new business opportunities and a fairly large contribution to Cerebra's revenues in the new financial year 2015-2016.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS & GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES-MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER, 2013:

Perhaps the Shareholders have widely observed continued global economic impact and rising of the Euro debt crisis leading to recessionary trends in the Corporate Sector. Given the circumstances, your Company was still able to overcome some of these hurdles and has achieved better performance. Your Company continued to focus on the hardware business and this segment turned out to be a major revenue earner this year too.

Despite the continued recession, the Company achieved better results in the year under report as can be witnessed from the financials

Whilst the total income increased from Rs. 16359.02 lakhs in the previous year to Rs. 23205.11 lakhs in the year i.e. by Rs. 6846.09 lakhs with 42% growth, the Profit stood enhanced from Rs.298.06 lakhs in the previous year to Rs. 536.32 lakhs in the year with 80% growth.

Your Company has registered and taken possession of 12 acres of industrial land near Bangalore, allotted by the Government of Karnataka.

Meanwhile, an important development which gives this project tremendous fillip is that the E-Waste Disposal Rule has been passed by the Ministry of Environment and Forests making it mandatory from May 1, 2012, for all to dispose of their E-Waste through authorised E-waste recycler only.

The team from E-Waste Recycling Division is being expanded. Cerebra is the only Company in India to be given the license to set up an Integrated E-Waste Recycling Facility with a processing capacity of 96,000 MT per annum. This license has been obtained from the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB), Bangalore. The temporary E-Waste facility at Peenya is doing well and has successfully added many new customers and contracts and the preferred E-Waste Management partners for many MNC Companies and many others. Cerebra after calling off the SPA with Enviro Hub Holdings Limited in Signapore has entered in to a MOU with E-Waste Systems INC, UK.

The Directors report that the Company continues to be debt free except for subsidiary Company Geeta Monitors Private Limited.

Overall the subsidiary performed well by adding new clients.

Geeta Monitors Pvt. Ltd (GMPL), popularly known as Geeta Electronics has been going through change in structure to adapt to the market situations and its mission is to become a pure SI company in next 2 years. Some of the key initiatives which were put in place to adapt to the vision were to take up security products. While the run rate business of hardware continue through the committed resellers, the company also thought that solution and service based business should be taken up priority with the end enterprise customer is the way forward which otherwise was predominantly addressing the SME and SMB segment.

GMPL also put in place for the customers what we call as "FAAS- Finance as a Service" to take the route of OPEX model to support its esteemed customers. There were some customer additions through this models also in the last quarter.

With continued focus from the account managers in the Education, Defense, Space, PSU, Research Labs, Healthcare, etc. the Company intends to bring new business opportunities and a fairly large contribution to Cerebra''s revenues in the new financial year 2013-2014. The market in Bangalore/Karnataka alone has a potential opportunity of close to INR 100 crores during the new financial year with demands for server, storage, networking, security and managed services expected to see an improved growth during this period. Further the Company will also look for opportunities outside the state to help maximize the revenues. With the E-waste division making decisive inroads in their domain, it is hoped to maximize the opportunities by working in tandem.

Cerebra M E FZCO - Cerebra Middle East has seen a tremendous growth in FY 12-13 both in terms of a massive increase in revenue as well as an expansion of its channel partner base in the Middle East. CME closed the year with a revenue of USD 9.25 Million as against USD 3.65 Million last year with good profitability.
