OVERVIEW OF ECONOMY
India''s GDP gained momentum in the final quarter of FY 2015 and pushed
full-year growth to a five- year high. GDP grew 7.6% in FY 2015, which
was up from 7.2% in the previous fiscal year and primarily reflected
robust growth in private consumption, which accounts for nearly 60% of
the economy. Nonetheless, ever since the Mnistry of Statistics and
Programme Implementation (MOSPI) introduced a new methodology last year
to measure GDP, doubts continue to linger regarding the reliability of
the data. According to the Ministry of Finance, the government met its
budget deficit target for FY 2015, which was set at the equivalent to
3.9% of GDP. The budget deficit has been shrinking for several years
and is expected to narrow further in FY 2016. The government has set a
goal to reduce the shortfall to 3.5% of GDP in FY 2016.

OVERVIEW OF ECONOMY
Growth picked up in 2014, inflation markedly declined, and the external
position was comfortable, helped by positive policies and lower global
oil prices. The outlook for India is for economic strengthening through
higher infrastructure spending, increased fiscal devolution to states,
and continued reform to financial and monetary policy. The government
underscored its intention to move steadily to tackle politically
difficult structural issues that have stalled investment and limited
economic performance in recent years.
A more robust economic performance than was earlier indicated emerges
from revised data based on an updated base year, wider coverage of
goods and services, and the inclusion of tax data to estimate economic
activity. Real growth in India was previously estimated as a change in
volume, but the new series estimates value added at each stage.
The government's initial estimates for Fiscal Year 2014-15 show that
economic growth accelerated to 7.4%. Agriculture growth slipped to 1.1%
in FY2014 largely because the monsoon was erratic, particularly
affecting the summer crop. The production of food grains has been
contracted by 3.2% from FY2013.
After growing by 4.5% in FY2013, industry accelerated to 5.9% in
FY2014, helped by a 6.8% expansion in manufacturing. These estimates
may be a tad optimistic, however, as they assume manufacturing growth
to have exceeded 10% in the final quarter of FY2014. Monthly industrial
production estimates indicate a more modest upturn. The production of
capital goods expanded after 3 years in the red. However, consumer
durables continued to decline. Improved coal production helped double
the growth of electricity generation over the previous year's rate.
OVERALL PERFORMANCE & OUTLOOK
Total revenue for the year was Rs. 1065.18 Lac in comparison to last
years' revenue of Rs. 837.81 Lac. In term of Profit before taxation, the
Company has earned a profit of Rs. 179.43 Lac in comparison to last
years' profit of Rs. 100.49 Lac thus registering a growth of about
78.55% for the year. Profit after Tax remains at Rs. 116.13 Lac in
comparison to last financial year in which the Company has earned a Net
Profit of Rs. 69.78 Lac. Amount of Profit for the year includes onetime
commission income of Rs. 35.00 Lac.
Your Company is one of the RBI registered NBFC and is engaged in the
business of finance and investments. The Company is doing trading /
investment activities in both Securities & Commodity market.
