OPERATIONS:

The turnover of HIRECT was Rs. 136 crores during Financial Year 2012-13, 16% higher than the turnover in Financial Year 2011-12. This increase was primarily driven, albeit delayed by finalization of some tenders and orders from Indian Railways and certainly higher output from Dehradun.

The Financial results could have been better but for non-finalization of pending tenders by Indian Railways, lack of enquiries for Power plants due to the imbroglio caused regarding coal even though there is an acute shortage of power in many states, which also affected the enquiries for Electrochemical applications. Further, due to the sluggish American and European markets, Customers could not finalize the export projects and definitely the reduction in the demand of the Customer''s products affected the finalization of new projects.

During Fiscal 2013, our profit margin decreased compared to the prior year due to considerable increase in the raw material cost, competitive pricing pressures and increased competition, which contributed to a decline in gross margin.

HIRECT faces a highly challenging next year. As we look ahead, we have to assume that the headwinds we''ve faced last year — will continue for the foreseeable future. There are no signs of improvement in the economy and there being no improvement in the flow of enquiries, no improvements in prospects of business and more competitors entering the field. Even the pace and sustainability of further improvements are questionable.

We are therefore assuming modest improvement in our plans. The environment will continue to change, and we will always be confronted with new issues and challenges. The company is focusing on improving productivity, reducing cost of manufacturing by re-designing, re-engineering, and introducing new vendors with technical support. The Company expects with the implementation of above measures, modest results in the fiscal year 2014.

The prototype of new products namely 3x130 KVA Converter for WAP5, WAP7 & WAG9 and 3 Phase Transformer for WAP5, WAP7 & WAG9 for Indian Railways and Universal Controller for High Current Rectifiers for the non railway segments are undergoing extensive field trials. The Company expects to receive more orders for these products for execution for the next financial year.

DIVIDEND:

The Directors are pleased to recommend for consideration of the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting payment of dividend @ 80% (Rs. 1.60 per share) amounting to Rs. 240.93 Lacs for the year ended 31st March, 2013 (previous year Rs. 240.93 Lacs).
