Your Company is in the field of repair and maintenance of large Motors, Generators, and
Transformers. All industries need these three products. Heavy industries require the Larger
Electrical Machines. As these machines get older the scope for the repair and maintenance
increases in an exponential manner.
The routine work of regular overhaul and repair is getting very competitive. Your Company is
branching out into allied fields closely associated with our three heavy electrical products of large
Motors Generators and Transformers.
The Company had completed the site work of a large turbo generator. This order was received
in June 2024. We are also continue with the site work on a large DC motor armature. Your
Company is looking to work with our own resources as well as external marketing agencies that
can procure technically challenging high value orders and with limited competition.
In addition, we have put in place plans for new verticals and enhanced facilities. This will provide
a quantum leap in the level and diversity of the services we will offer in F.Y 2025-26.
Evans is a group which grows along with its people. We provide open and friendly culture
encouraging not only growth of an individual but also that of a team which eventually cascades
into the growth of the organization. Evans is a place where people have remained committed for
long periods not only for rewards and recognition but also because they feel part of the family- a
community, a place where teammates go the extra mile and work with each other. Employees
have easy accessibility to the senior management through open door policy and are given
adequate exposure to explore innovative ideas and pursue novel concepts.
Growth is performance driven and is dependent on the ability of the individual to take initiative
and assume higher responsibilities. Demonstrating outstanding work ethics in the course of
performing daily activities, contributing beyond identified team role and responsibilities help in
faster career progression. It is very important for us to ensure that employee morale is high and
they feel a sense of pride and belonging to the organization. Human resource team plays a crucial
role by motivating, retaining and charting out growth path for employees.
Building and consolidating our talent pool has always been one of the top priorities and we have
been successful in attracting varied talent that brings sound expertise, new perspectives and
infectious enthusiasm. Evans has a strong presence in the market and attracts the best talent in
the market. We believe that the ultimate identity and the success of our organization depend
largely on sourcing candidates who complement our culture and share our values.

in all spheres of our business. This will have a positive impact in the company progressing into
2025-26.
