The Profit before depreciation and tax has increased by 3.06% while the Net Profit has increased by 6.52%. The Indian cables market is highly competitive and fragmented with a large number of cable manufacturers in both organized and unorganized sectors.

Although, the Company has adopted adequate cost control measures throughout the year, but due to increase in competition, net Profit did not increase as compared to increase in turnover. The Company was aggressive in its quest for new contracts, executed on its full services strategy and maintained pricing disciplines. This helped to deliver a decent revenue growth along the year with improvement in margins. Your Company continues to focus on production of quality cables to broaden its customer base and to set a benchmark in the competitive market.
