MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS REPORT

Pursuant to Regulation 34 and Schedule V of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, the Management Discussion and Analysis Report is as follows:

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT

Statements made herein describing the Company’s expectations or predictions are “forward looking statements”. The actual results may differ from those expected or predicted. Prime factors that may make a difference to the Company’s performance include market conditions, input costs, govt. regulations, economic development within/outside country etc.

The following discussions on our financial condition and result of operations should be read together with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to these statements included in the annual report. Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, all references herein to “we”, “us”, “our”, “the Company”, “FDS” are to Fourth Dimension Solutions Ltd. and its subsidiaries and associates.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

The aggregate demand in Economy is expected to improve in 2018-19, supported, inter alia, by the improving GST implementation, the recapitalisation of public sector banks and the resolution of distressed assets under the IBC. Rural and infrastructure sectors are identified as thrust areas in the Union Budget, which could energise aggregate demand. With the acceleration in global trade, the Indian economy could benefit from buoyant external demand. In addition to the usual monsoon related uncertainty, inflation faces upside risks from a variety of other sources, especially due to the oil prices, the fiscal slippage, and (the statistical effect from) the expected increases in HRAs by the state governments, The purely direct statistical impact of the HRA adjustment on CPI will be looked through while formulating monetary policy. Uncertainty over the pace and timing of monetary policy normalisation by the systemic central banks in advanced economies, protectionist tendencies and fears of a trade war pose significant risks to the baseline inflation and growth paths.

Over the years, a large number of initiatives have been undertaken by various State Governments and Central Ministries to usher in an era of e-Government. Sustained efforts have been made at multiple levels to improve the delivery of public services and simplify the process of accessing them.

e-Governance in India has steadily evolved from computerization of Government Departments to initiatives that encapsulate the finer points of Governance, such as citizen centricity, service orientation and transparency. Lessons from previous e-Governance initiatives have played an important role in shaping the progressive e-Governance strategy of the country. Due cognizance has been taken of the notion that to speed up e-Governance implementation across the various arms of Government at National, State, and Local levels, a programme approach needs to be adopted, guided by common vision and strategy. This approach has the potential of enabling huge savings in costs through sharing of core and support infrastructure, enabling interoperability through standards, and of presenting a seamless view of Government to citizens.

The Budget document also referred to existing projects such as the Central Public Procurement Portal which already has around 3.5 lakh contractors and vendors registered. In November, 2017 alone, electronic bids for over one lakh tenders valued at around two lakh forty thousand crore were invited through this portal. Similarly, the third version of the Government E-Marketplace (GeM) has been launched last week. The platform has 7,800 buyers, 5600 sellers, 375000 products and twelve services so far.

While projects such as E-Courts will bring about universal computerization of all Districts and Subordinate Courts, a National Judicial Data Grid will provide an online platform for information relating to judicial proceedings and decisions from over sixteen thousand computerized Courts and Subordinate Courts in the country. Union Budget 2018 continues to be carrying forward the government’s Digital India agenda and there is a vision to be ready for the future using digital technologies. While not specifically outlined in the current budget, the government needs to increase focus on security and privacy of personal data.

RISKS AND CONCERNS

This section lists 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.

Economic Risk

A part of business is substantially dependent on the prevailing domestic economic conditions. Factors that may adversely affect India’s economic growth that could affect the demand for IT products & services from the public sector include slowdown in the rate of implementation of digitization programs, inflation, changes in tax, trade, fiscal and monetary policies, scarcity of credit etc. Our revenues are highly dependent on Government E-governance projects, as well as on clients concentrated in certain industries. An economic slowdown or other factors that affect the economic health of the nation or those industries, or any other impact on the growth of such industries, may affect our business.

Competition Risk

This risk arises from more players wanting a share in the same pie. Like in most other industries, opportunity brings with itself competition. We face different levels of competition in each sector, from domestic as well as multinational companies. Intense competition in the market for technology services could affect our pricing, which could reduce our share of business from clients and decrease our revenues. However, FDS has established strong brand goodwill in the market and a strong foothold in a wide spectrum IT & ITes projects and services. We have built a strong relationship with key industry participants and as a result are able to obtain competitive commercial terms and operational advantages. We also counter this risk with the quality of our products, our customer-centric approach and our ability to innovate customer specific solutions, focusing on pricing and aggressive marketing strategy, disciplined and time bound order executions, coupled with prudent financial and human resources management and better control over costs. Thus, we do not expect to be significantly affected by this risk.

Trade Risk

Our engagements with customers are typically singular in nature and do not necessarily provide for subsequent engagements. Our business will suffer if we fail to anticipate and develop new services and enhance existing services in order to keep pace with rapid changes in technology and in the industries on which we focus. Disruptions in telecommunications, system failures, or virus attacks could negatively impact our operations and ability to provide our services and solutions, which could result in client dissatisfaction and a reduction in our revenues. A large part of our revenues is dependent on our top clients and the loss of any one of our major clients could significantly impact our business.

Given the projected growth in the Indian economy it is estimated that demand for our services will continue to rise steadily. The Company is further reducing its dependence on local by diversifying the sectors we cater to. Thus, we believe we have adequate mitigation in place for trade risk.

Regulatory Risk

If we are unable to obtain required approvals and licenses in a timely manner, our business and operations may be adversely affected. We require certain approvals, licenses, registrations and permissions for execution of projects as per contract stipulations. We may encounter delays in obtaining these requisite approvals, or may not be able to obtain such approvals at all, which may have an adverse effect on our revenues. However, the Government has come up with a number of initiatives to boost the sector. As all industry predictions suggest that this will be the trend in the future as well and given our own experience in obtaining such permissions, we do not expect this risk to affect us materially in the coming years.

Liability Risk

This risk refers to our liability arising from any damage to products, equipment, plant & machinery, life and third parties which may adversely affect our business. We may be liable to our clients for damages caused by the disclosure of confidential information, system failures, errors or unsatisfactory performance of services. We may be the subject of litigation which, if adversely determined, could harm our business. The Company attempts to mitigate this risk through contractual obligations and insurance policies.

Execution Risk

The Company has undertaken number of projects in the last year and several more are in the pipeline. Contracts are often conditioned upon our performance, which, if unsatisfactory, could result in lower revenues than previously anticipated. Some of our long-term client contracts contain benchmarking provisions which, if triggered, could result in lower future revenues and profitability under the contract. Our increasing work with governmental agencies may expose us to additional risks. Any delay in project implementation can impact revenue and profit for that period. Our implementation schedules are in line with the plans. Emergency and contingency plans are in place to prevent or minimize business interruptions. Therefore, we do not expect this risk to affect us materially in the future. Concerns such as an unfavourable tax structure, infrastructure bottle-necks, retaining talent and unprecedented natural and man-made disasters and political/social turmoil which may affect our business, remain. However, these are threats faced by the entire industry. With superior methodologies and improved processes and systems, the Company is well positioned to lead a high growth path.

OPPORTUNITIES & THREATS

The Government has announced major initiatives to promote IT and ITes sector in India.

1. "The Government is transforming method of disposal of its business by introduction of e-office and other e-governance initiatives in central Ministries and Departments.

2. The initiatives include a web-based Government Integrated Financial Management Information System (GIFMIS), administered by Controller General of Accounts, for budgeting, accounting, expenditure and cash management for more effective fiscal management of Government.

7. While projects such as E-Courts will bring about universal computerization of all Districts and Subordinate Courts, a National Judicial Data Grid will provide an online platform for information relating to judicial proceedings and decisions from over sixteen thousand computerized Courts and Subordinate Courts in the country

However, there are concerns such as a downturn in economic activity, change in the government’s technology and digital policy, cancellation and delay in contracts, non- adherence to contract clauses by counter parties which may have a negative impact on our line of business which is beyond our immediate control.
