OPERATIONS:
* Standalone financial performance
The Company has successfully achieved several milestones in the past
and has continued its journey in this year too in spite of the
difficult phase through which most of the Indian infrastructure
industry is passing through. During the Period under review the total
revenue has increased from Rs. 475.45 Lacs to Rs. 1405.34 Lacs. The
year under review has been another very tough year for the
Infrastructure Industries which is passing through recessionary phase
in last three years.
Modest growth, coupled with delays in settlement of claims/ litigations
with the clients, slower industrial growth, high interest rate, delays
in projects, delay in payments from clients etc. has continuously put
the company into stress. Though, the Company is taking all the setbacks
positively and believes to sustain corporate stability with low cost
and high quality work. We strongly believe that infrastructure sector
is bound to grow at a very good pace in the coming financial year.
In spite of the above, your company has achieved decent Turnover of Rs.
1405.34 Lacs, during the year 2014-15. This indicates itself that the

added new customers, in tough times of industry. The company has
incurred net Profit of Rs. 10.75 lacs for the financial year 2014-15.
