4. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY OUTLOOK:

Construction Industry Overview

The demand has fallen significantly as the sudden collapse of oil prices in 2015 led virtually every energy company to slow down, postpone, or outright cancel major projects all over the world. Commodity prices have also tumbled, and the mining industry has reduced its capital spending considerably.

The deterioration of energy and commodities markets is in large part a consequence of the skidding economy in China, which had been a major driver of global economic activity and infrastructure projects over the past decade. Anemic and inconsistent growth in developed markets has been unable to make up for the Chinese shortfall and similar weaknesses in other emerging countries. Continuing global economic instability will almost certainly drive E&C sector revenues down in 2016 compared to the year before, stalling the recovery that had followed the previous collapse in spending in the sector during the 2008-09 financial crisis.

That’s not to say that there are no bright spots for E&C companies. In the U.S., construction starts were up about 15 percent in 2015 and are forecast to advance another 6 percent this year. Also, infrastructure spending has been neglected since the 2008 recession and some analysts believe that worldwide annual infrastructure spending will grow to more than US$9 trillion per year by 2025, from a little over $4 trillion now—that is, if the political will can be mustered to support much-needed improvements.

In addition to the fundamental economic stresses on the E&C sector, established companies face intensifying competition from firms in low-cost nations, which weighs on E&C profit margins and has driven many in the industry to commoditize their services. To make up for it, some E&C companies have turned to a mergers and acquisition strategy centered on acquiring companies offering promising new sources of value in new geographies, newlines of business, or both.

Indian Construction Industry Outlook

Bright prospects for construction industry in India

Increasing investments in residential construction and transport infrastructure will drive growth in India’s construction industry over the forecast period (2016-2020), according to a study by Timetric’s Construction Intelligence Centre (CIC). Consequently, the average annual growth in real terms is expected to improve from of2.95% in 2011-2015 to 5.65% during the coming five years.

Timetric’s CIC forecasts the industry to rise from a value of US$428.1 billion in 2015 to US$563.4 billion in 2020, measured at constant 2010 US dollar exchange rates. Due to industrialization, urbanization, a rise in disposable income and population growth the demand for construction services is set to rise. And also with the smart city projects are put in place with full swing by the Government of India in collaboration with the State Governments the prospects look brighter for the Infrastructure projects in the coming years. Government efforts to improve India’s residential and transport infrastructure will also play a vital role in supporting the growth.

Infrastructure construction to pick up

Infrastructure construction accounted for 23.0% of the total industry’s value in 2015. According to Timetric’s CIC, it will continue to expand over the forecast period, driven by public and private sector investments in public transport infrastructure. Consequently, infrastructure construction is anticipated to be the industry’s fastest-growing market over the forecast period, with aCAGRof9.94%in nominal terms, to value INR9.5 trillion (US$140.1 billion) in 2020.

“The country’s expanding population and urbanization will continue to generate a need for infrastructure development. To improve trade competitiveness and cope with the population growth, the government is focusing more on infrastructure development, which is expected to result in regular investments in the maintenance and expansion of road infrastructure in the near future,”

Residential construction to dominate the industry

Residential construction was the largest market in the Indian construction industry during 2011-2015, and is anticipated to remain relatively sizeable over the next five years, with a 30.6% share of the industry’s total value in 2020. Construction activity in the residential market will be supported by rapid urbanization, population growth, and positive developments in regional economic conditions. Government efforts to clear slum areas by 2022 and reduce the country’s housing deficit will also help the market grow.

Provisions for Infrastructure sector in Budget 2016-17

Road Transport and Highways: Development of infrastructure particularly the road infrastructure is crucial for accelerating the process of economical development of the country. Keeping this in view, the budgetary support has been stepped to ? 55,000 cr. This includes allocation for Special Accelerated Road Development Programme (includes allocation of Kaladan multi-modal transport project) - ?5000 cr. The Central Road Fund (CRF) allocation includes allocation for NHAI - investment is ? 12,153 cr., National Highways(original works) ? 15,500 cr.

Investments & Government Initiatives: International payment International investment

Construction Development: Township, Housing, Built-up Infrastructure

Each phase of the construction development project would be considered as a separate project for the purpose of FDI Policy. Construction - Development projects (which include development of townships, construction of residential/commercial premises, road or bridges, hotels, resorts, hospitals, educational institutes, recreational facilities, city and regional level infrastructure, townships) -100% FDI through automatic route is permitted. The conditions under this sector are:

(A) (i) The investor will be permitted to exit on completion of the project or after development of trunk infrastructure i.e. roads, water supply, street lighting, drainage and sewerage.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained at (A) (i) above, a foreign investor will be permitted to exit and repatriate foreign investment before the completion of project under automatic route, provided that a lock-in-period of three years, calculated with reference to each tranche of foreign investment has been completed. Further, transfer of stake from one non-resident to another non-resident, without repatriation of investment will neither be subject to any lock-in period nor to any government approval.

(B) The project shall conform to the norms and standards, including land use requirements and provision of community amenities and common facilities, as laid down in the applicable building control regulations, bye-laws, rules, and other regulations of the State Government/Municipal/Local Body concerned.

(C) The Indian investee company will be permitted to sell only developed plots. For the purposes of this policy “developed plots” will mean plots where trunk infrastructure i.e. roads, water supply, street lighting, drainage and sewerage, have been made available.

(D) The Indian investee company shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary approvals, including those of the building/layout plans, developing internal and peripheral areas and other infrastructure facilities, payment of development, external development and other charges and complying with all other requirements as prescribed under applicable rules/bye-laws/regulations of the State Government/Municipal/Local Body concerned.

(E) The State Government/Municipal/Local Body concerned, which approves the building/development plans, will monitor compliance of the above conditions by the developer.

(F) No minimum land area requirement in case of development of serviced plots.

(G) In case of construction-development projects, minimum floor area of 20,000 sq. mts.

(H) It is clarified that 100% FDI under automatic route is permitted in completed projects for operations and management of townships, malls/shopping complexes and business constructions.

Government Initiatives

The Government of India has recently relaxed FDI policy in 15 sectors, such as raising the foreign investment limit for some sectors, easing the conditions for others and putting many on the automatic route for approval. The sectors that benefited from the relaxation include defense, real estate, private banking, civil aviation, single brand retail and news broadcasting. The new rules provide for easier exit from investment in the construction sector while foreign investment limit in defense and airlines was allowed up to 49 per cent through the automatic route. Banks were allowed fungible FDI investment up to 74 per cent, which means that Fll investment in private banks can rise to this limit.

The Government of India plans to further simplify rules for Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) such as increasing FDI investment limits in sectors and include more sectors in the automatic approval route, to attract more investments in the country.

Challenges:

Risks/Current challenges in infrastructure development in India

But the progress of infrastructure development has not been smooth in the recent years, with significant shortfalls in planned investments. This problem is compounded by the fact that many of the announced projects are yet to be completed, with large time and cost overruns. Figures sourced from Government reports reveal that nearly 276 projects out of 566 projects tracked by Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation have been delayed. Some estimates of Ministry of Finance peg the worth of delayed projects, due to pending approvals, at ~ I NR 1 lakh Crore.

Future growth areas for the sector

The proposed investment over the next five years are ~ INR 56,00,000 Cr, with nearly half expected to come from private players. While sectors like road and power are expected to attract a large share of the proposed investments, newer opportunities are likely to appear over the next few years. One of the examples of a large planned infrastructure development is the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, envisaged to accommodate large industrial zones, development of smart cities and creation of logistics network. Opportunities are also expected to arise in the area of urban infrastructure development, such as large urban transport and water supply projects in urban cities, driven by the rapid pace of urbanization.

Future Outlook of the Industry

Especially on Road Sector

LOOKING BACK

A new contract method holds the key to renewed attempts by the government in drawing private players back to the highways sector. After finding it difficult to award highway sections to private developers, the government shifted from the BOT (build, operate, transfer) model to the government-funded EPC (engineering procurement construction) and introduced the new method — the hybrid annuity model — for projects granted from October 1. Under the new model, the National Highways Authority of India will provide an initial grant up to 40 per cent of the cost and the developer has to chip in with the rest and complete the project.

In August, the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs cleared a proposal to allow infrastructure companies to divest 100 per cent of their equity after two years of completion of construction for all projects given under the BOT model, irrespective of when year the contract was handed out.

Data from India Ratings and Research—a unit of Fitch Ratings — shows that 21 highway projects worth Rs 26,000 crore failed to attract bids over the last two fiscals. As a result, NHAI had to fall back on EPC contracts to plug the gap.

Disputes too are hampering completion of projects. Data from the road ministry shows 112 cases involving Rs 25,000 crore were pending under arbitration between the NHAI and developers till end-April 2015. Added to this is the fact that an underdeveloped bond market has forced PPP road projects to mainly depend on debt from commercial banks — Rs 1.67 lakh crore till February 2015, up 384% from FY08.

LOOKING FORWARD

A challenging target for project awards through the public-private-partnership route is likely to be set for the coming fiscal — at close to 5,000 km of highway sections worth over Rs 45,000 crore. These include bids for the proposed Bharat Mala project that entails road development along the international borders and the country’s coastline and the Char Dham connectivity project that envisages linking up the religious tourism circuit.

A bigger challenge is the task of managing project risk in older projects. An estimated 7,500 km of highway projects have being deemed to be at high risk of not being completed, including 5,100 km under construction and 2,400 km operational sections that were awarded mostly between fiscals 2010 and 2012 on the BOT format.

- India has an estimated urban housing shortage of 18.8 Million dwelling units. The housing shortage in rural India is estimated at 47.4 Million units, in 2012.

- Present levels of urban infrastructure are inadequate to meet the demands of the existing urban population. There is need for re-generation of urban areas in existing cities and the creation of new, inclusive smart cities to meet the demands of increasing population and migration from rural to urban areas. Future cities of India will require smart real estate and urban infrastructure.

- The Government of India is in the process of launching a new urban development mission. This will help develop 500 cities, which include cities with a population of more than 100,000 and some cities of religious and tourist importance. These cities will be supported and encouraged to harness private capital and expertise through Public Private Partnerships (PPPs), to holster their infrastructure and services in the next 10 years.

- To provide quality urban services on a sustainable basis in Indian cities, the need of the hour is that urban local bodies (ULBs) enter into partnership agreements with foreign players, either through joint ventures, private sector partners or through other models.

CCCL COMPANY SCENARIO Performance Highlights

In an adverse environment the company has bagged new orders to the tune of Rs. 65096/- Lakhs and has successfully executed the projects.

Company began the current financial year with an order book which stood at Rs .72016/- Lakhs. The size and structure of the organization was geared for catering to take up larger projects but with economic slowdown and lower order booking coupled with slower project execution the asset base and the fixed cost structure which was built up affected the company’s profitability.

The lower turnover and operating margins in an environment of high interest costs severely affected the Company’s profitability. In addition, further litigation and non payments of claims adversely affected the Company’s liquidity. Company’s revenue growth and profitability was muted in the last few quarters due to order execution-related issues. CCCL’s revenue declined in FY 20152016 due to slowdown in order execution. Delay due to exogenous factors such as delay in procuring environmental approvals, land acquisition and government decision making have adversely affected performance. Delayed project execution has in turn affected payment from clients and the Company’s cash flows. The year under review has seen enhanced working capital requirements. This has been due to clients delaying payments. Amounts due from clients have shot up to Rs. 1001.55/-crores ( including retention of Rs.135.83/- Crores.) as the recovery has been slow. In certain cases we have initiated legal action for recovering these dues. Dues from clients for completed major projects to the tune of Rs.72.71/- crores has added to liquidity crunch.

The Infrastructure sector is facing strong headwinds, including slowdown in order booking caused by shortfall in investments in the infrastructure sector, increased commodity prices and high interest rate scenario. As a consequence of certain unexpected developments which were beyond the control of management, mainly delays in decision making by the Company’s major clients and delays in settlement of claims, the expected cash flows have not materialized for the Company. These factors coupled with slowdown in Infrastructure industry has resulted in lower turnover, lower operating margins and high interest costs for the Company which has consequently led the Company to incur net loss for the fifth time since its inception.

STEPS TAKEN OR PROPOSED TO BE TAKEN FOR IMPROVEMENT:

Company has taken view of all these factors seriously and to overcome the above challenges, has proactively undertaken the following steps directed at improving its operational efficiencies:

Claims Realization: Persistent efforts are being made by Company to collect dues and claims. The Company has set up a strategic senior management team to recover dues and claims outstanding from Clients. Total outstanding as of 31st March 2016 is Rs.100155.42/- lakhs (including retention of Rs.13583/- lakhs). Overdue outstanding more than 180 days is Rs.16974.64/- Lakhs.

Cost optimization: Over the past 12 months, Company has implemented cost optimization measures such as cutting overheads and rationalization of human resources. Reduction in Working Capital: Insistence on higher advances from customers and better credit terms with suppliers is being negotiated.

Monetization of assets: Company is proactively exploring monetization of assets either at the parent level or in its subsidiaries/ step down subsidiaries.

Bidding for Jobs: The Company has been careful in bidding for new jobs and is taking jobs only on a selective basis.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

It is explicitly states that some of the statements in the Management Discussion and Analysis report are likely to be forward looking and it may so happen that the actual events or results may differ from what the Board of Directors/ Management perceive in terms of the future performance and outlook due to factors having a bearing on them and which are beyond precise perception. Company''s operations may be affected with supply and demand situations, input prices and their availability, changes in government regulations and policies, tax laws and other factors such as Industrial relations, fund constraints and macro economic development.

CCCL has made total investments of Rs.22.91 in its subsidiaries viz. CCCL Infra (Rs. 22.91 Crores). These investments are yet to yield returns. While the investment decision is sound, the execution of these businesses have faced various bottlenecks in the form of non- availability of working capital, un-favourable market conditions, other macroeconomic issues.

These have stressed the cash flows of the parent company, CCCL presently, we are in advanced discussions with various investors. Going forward, it is proposed to unlock their value by divesting majority equity stake in these companies.

(b) Noble Consolidated Glazings Ltd. (NCGL)

The glazing market being a sub set of the construction industry, the various factors discussed above drastically affected the operations of NCGL.

6. OPPORTUNITIES

Construction opportunities have almost doubled for this period from the infrastructure projects lined up across various sub segments of Power, Roads, Railways, Irrigation & water supply, Ports and Airports. There is a long-term demand for quality infrastructure construction, mainly emanating from housing, transportation and urban development segments that far exceed the supply, even though there has been a substantial increase in the number of contractors and builders, especially in housing and road construction segment.

7. THREAT PERCEPTION Challenges:

- Despite the prospects, the sector continues to face challenges from land acquisition issues, adverse political and structural changes, shortage of talent, design and constructability issues, and rising material and labor costs. However, the land acquisition and environment related issues are being addressed on war footing basis to ease the constraints.

- Policy bottlenecks, slow clearance of projects and rising inflation have dampened private sector sentiments and have stifled investments in Capital expenditure. A high level committee has been constituted for speedy clearance of stalled projects and monitoring the implementation.

- Working capital cycle has been elongated mainly due to stretched receivables, which has affected the cash flow position of the companies in the sector. Many of the companies have been forced to draw their full limits with the Banking system or restructure the facilities.

- Lengthy dispute resolution mechanism in the sector is yet another major factor affecting the cash flows of the construction companies.

- This coupled with rising interest rates have led to a drop in the PAT margin and deterioration of debt coverage ratios of construction companies.

8. RISK PERCEPTION

The Directors are constantly assessing the business risks pertaining to the performance of the Company. The following are the important risks perceptions:

- Quality Maintenance of the work.

- Adequate availability of Raw Materials

4. OPERATIONS

The Construction industry has been facing many constraints in recent times due to lack of efficient and stable regime and policy, which has led to project delays and less offtake leading to costly and time consuming disputes between the project- promoters and contractors.

The construction industry in general and the company in specific have been affected by the macro and micro economic scenario. The macro reasons such as the drag in credit offtake have resulted in the deferment of capital expenditure in the economy, affecting the project completion thus leading to locking up of funds. Delay in project completion and project stage certification affects the payment release-the commonly used deferment strategy by the clients. This delay in payment by clients results in liquidity crisis for the industry / company which has percolated into delayed payments or defaults with suppliers / subcontractors/ banks /statutory authorities / employees.

Further persistent delays and variations in public sector projects, have come on hand for them as an excuse for delaying or reducing the payments and claims and thus crippling the working capital cycle.

With respect to micro factors, the dip in sales was mainly due to delay in project schedule, cancellation of projects and drop in certification and claims. The material cost and sub- contractor cost have increased, on account of lower sales and delayed payments to vendors resulting in higher cost of inputs. The under recovery of fixed overheads due to idle resources and lower turnover further bloated the cost and affected the margins drastically. The delayed certification and release of payments had led to delay in execution, /unabsorbed overheads /cash crunch situation due to lower volumes and higher costs including finance costs.

There has been a constant stress in EBITDA margin from FY2011 onwards and this has taken a steeper dip in the current year due to project delays and incurrence of higher expenditure on account of project / payment rescheduling which unfortunately had not been honoured by the clients on account of liquidity issues ultimately affecting the project itself. These factors have also led to invocation of Bank Guarantees thus adversely affecting the credit standing and regular working of the company. This further resulted in augmentation of creditor / statutory / secured liabilities and added to these, delayed realization from sundry debtors led to complete exhaustion of working capital.

Under these conditions your company planned to get its debts restructured to avail appropriate concessions, breather and additional funding to tide over this cash strained scenario. During the year the debt restructuring proposal of the Company was referred to the Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) Cell by State Bank of India. The restructuring under CDR inter-alia provides for business restructuring envisaging sale of certain assets and investments and financial restructuring through reduction in interest rates and appropriately designed repayments.

The CDR cell approved the package vide its letters dated 28 March 2014 and 28 April 2014, giving certain terms and conditions for the business and financial restructuring including sharing of security among lenders.

Pending execution of necessary documents and compliance with certain conditions of the CDR which have been agreed to by the Company and the Promoters, the interest relief of Rs.1788.79 for the year ending 31 March 2014 has been considered in these accounts. The total new orders awarded to the company during the year is Rs.8,836.86 Million.

The total order backlog as on March 31, 2014 is Rs.180,677 Lacs.

2. DIVIDEND:

In view of the losses incurred by the Company, your Directors have not recommended any dividend for the financial year ended March 31,2013.

3. OPERATIONS

The year under review has been very difficult . The sluggishness in the industrial growth and the services sector and the inhibitions in building new capacities have affected the overall growth of the Construction sector. Further unbridled competition from small, marginal and regional players has resulted in cut throat competition. Working capital pressure and liquidity pressure have further aggravated the problems. It is in this backdrop the year under review is to be viewed.

The year saw a considerable shrinkage in operating margins because of the increase in the bulk material/diesel/labor costs which could not be passed on to the clients. Further due to liquidity pressure, the company could not avail a cost effective pricing from suppliers as a whole which also affected the operating margins.

The lower turnover and operating margins were accentuated in an environment of higher borrowing and consequent interest costs which adversely affected the Company''s profitability.

Non payments of dues and claims by clients, delays in project execution, contractual disputes and inadequate funding added to the liquidity problem and increased leveraged levels.

_ Current RBI policy on funding is not accommodating favourably the infrastructure industry''s borrowing needs. All the players in the infrastructure industry are more or less being affected with the same problem.

The Company has approached its Bankers with a proposal for a term loan to tide over the current situation . The proposal is still being processed by the banks. The Company is also looking for other avenues for infusing funds into the system. Raising Debt is increasingly becoming difficult due to high leverage and poor interest coverage ratio.

In the prevailing market conditions Raising of funds by means of Equity is also increasingly becoming difficult.

The Liquidity issue is a critical factor in maintaining the operations at an economically viable level.

In view of the current general scenario and economic situation, management feels the sluggishness prevailing especially for construction industry, will continue and may further affect the operations.

The total order backlog as on March 31, 2013 is Rs. 339420 lacs.

Till July 2013 , the Decisions awaited from various clients for tenders submitted by the Company is for 125 projects" amounting to about Rs. 6440.00 crores. Tenders . for various packages for 16 nos projects worth about Rs. 898.34 crores are expected to be submitted in the near future. The Company has also submitted prequalificationbids for 41 projects worth overRs. 3721 crores, which are currently under evaluation.
