6. MATERIAL ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGES

Though the Telecom sector is rapidly growing and achieving new heights in Indian economy but the business of Samsung has seen a major decline during the first half year of 2014.The Market of Samsung mobile was earlier dominated by organized trade which had an overall share of nearly 25% of total business volume. Later on, when the Online Channels showed their presence, they started offering predatory pricing of Samsung mobile. This resulted in stupendous growth in the business volume in Online Channel compared to the organized trade and the organized trade lost its market share by nearly 50%. Since Optiemus deals only with OT channel, the impact has been most pronounced on us as well.

There was a continuous decline in the business volume of Samsung Mobiles from the last one year. This situation arose due to intense competition by the other brands who started offering the phone of almost similar configuration at a very competitive price which drove out the customer away from Samsung Mobiles. Therefore, the sales volume of Samsung Mobiles faced huge drop in comparison to First Half of previous year 2013 over the first half of current year 2014, which is approximately 25-30%. This fact is well known worldwide.

In response to this downfall Optiemus has made serious efforts to shift its focus from topline business activities to bottom line activities thereby focusing on its own brand 'Molife' which is potentially capable to achieve growth in many folds and also to cover up the loss of revenue occurred in the immediate near future. Keeping its pace with the market trend, the Company is inclining towards online trade of its products for wider reach all across the country. Whilst this, Despite of loss of revenue and decline in sales for the current year 2014-15, Company has shown positive approach in maintaining its financial affairs and has maintained increased EBITA level of Rs. 11781 Lacs over the last year EBITA level, which clearly depicts the measures being put by your Company towards giving a new strategic Direction to the business, keeping aligned with the market momentum.
