4. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS:

In order to avoid duplication between the Directors'' Report and the Management Discussion and Analysis, we present below a composite summary of performance of the business and functions of the company.

The discussion here in below is divided in two portions - Pharmaceutical & Intermediate Business and Digital & eCommerce Business for the sack of clarity and keeping in mind the future business strategy of the company.

PHARMACEUTICALS & INTERMEDIATES

The company had set up a mid size Pharmaceutical and Intermediate manufacturing unit in Gujarat in the year 1994- 95. It was doing well till the year 2000-01. Later, due to closure notice issued by the local pollution board, the unit was shut down for a long period of time. After getting necessary clearances, the company re-started its operations at the unit but in view of its financial condition, it decided to carry out only job work. The company entered into Job work arrangement with few companies. In the year 2012-13, it decided to diversify into Digital and eCommerce business as its Pharmaceutical and Intermediate business was not growing and the industry was under various regulatory compliances which the job worker company was unable to comply with. The job worker company even failed to maintain the unit in a good condition. Consequently, the company terminated its arrangement of job work with effect from 1st August, 2013 though small work continued till November 2013 at the plant with the same company. Consequent upon the termination of the arrangement, the company forfeited the security deposit of Rs. 10 lacs paid by the job worker company. The job worker company also had an option to buy the manufacturing assets of the company but they failed to complete the transaction on or before the appointed date. The company terminated the transaction. The job worker company has preferred to refer both the matters for Arbitration.

In May, 2014, the job worker approached the company and showed its willingness to buy its manufacturing assets. And towards that, it has paid all its pending dues to various government authorities, paid dues to GIDC on behalf of the company and paid token money as commitment charges to the company. As on signing this report, the process of disposal of such assets is in progress and it is expected to get complete in next couple of weeks. The job worker has agreed to pay Rs. 355 lacs for the manufacturing assets of the company on as is where is basis. A slump sale agreement is being executed between the company and the job worker.

You had already authorized the Board of Directors in its Extra Ordinary General Meeting held on 25th March, 2013 to dispose off all such assets which are related to the pharmaceutical and manufacturing activities, either on as is basis or dismantled condition on top priority to unlock the company resources for its new business activities.

During the year company''s total revenue from this business segment was Rs. 13.89 lacs as against previous year Rs. 20.56 lacs.

DIGITAL & E-COMMERCE

As per the BSE Ltd. classification, the company operates in the ''Internet & Catalogue Retail'' segment.

General - Internet and eCommerce Business:

"The e-Commerce market in India grew to USD 9.5 billion in 2012 and is expected to reach USD 12.6 billion - a 34% y-o-y growth since 2009. This is still the tip of the iceberg since we believe this market to grow multifold over the next 5 years. This growth would be driven by key factors providing wider economic opportunities such as innovative business models, introduction of new product / service categories and penetration into non-metros and rural areas." (Source - IAMAI KPMG Report 2013).

According to the report, few of the Key Insights are as under:

* e-Commerce industry is estimated to contribute to 4 percent of GDP by 2020. It is a significant growth from existing contribution of 0.46 percent

* Growth in e-Commerce transactions will boost government''s revenue share through increased tax collection

* Revenues for logistics companies from e-tailing alone are estimated to grow 70 times to ~ USD 2.6 Billion (INR 14,300 crores) by 2020

* 1 million direct and 0.5 million indirect jobs would be created by 2021 by e-tailing alone.

Business

The company now mainly operates in the ''Internet & Catalogue Retail'' segment. It is setting up India''s first chain of Internet Retail Stores - ''iStreet Bazaar'' to take benefit of eCommerce to smaller towns and villages to the common man. In its first phase, the company plans to set up 200 such network stores. The company has launched the project in March this year and has set up over 100 stores till May 2013 in Gujarat.

iStreet Bazaar aims to penetrate the remote areas of India by providing reliability, affordability, dependability and, above all, ease. It would give the common man the benefits, comfort and joy of shopping thru the Internet. iStreet Bazaar through it''s world class platform and network stores will offer thousands of products and hundreds of brands at extremely competitive prices so that customers in smaller towns and villages can easily buy products which otherwise won''t be available in their area.

iStreet Bazaar Process

The process is depicted here below which simplifies eCommerce for common people of India. These iStreet Bazaar stores will eliminate payment related issues that arise when transacting online. iStreet Bazaar stores also put a face to the online transaction since the customers will be transacting at a store with a person behind the counter. This increases the level of trust that is necessary during any online purchase. In the Indian scenario this definitely becomes a big advantage for the stores since trust is one of the key factors in the adoption of eCommerce. Anyone, literally anyone, can buy at an iStreet Bazaar Store.

Opportunity & Our Focus

eCommerce is transforming business world over. However, in India the story is a bit different. India is the second most populous country in the world and still e-commerce has touched only 2 percent (or even less) of the population. The reasons for such low penetration are - poor infrastructure, accessibility, lack of knowledge, mode of payment, lack of trust etc. If some assistance is provided, eCommerce has the potential of reaching millions of more people in India. Hence it is a great opportunity.

iStreet Bazaar simply means an internet ka bazaar for the common man of Bharat. It aims to penetrate the remote areas of India by providing reliability, affordability, dependability and, above all, ease.

Major focus of the company during FY 2014-15 is to build the capacity of its network of its Internet Stores and product catalogue. It expects to create around 1100 stores during FY 2014-15.

Development of Network Partners

Through its world class platform and network stores, iStreet Bazaar shall offer thousands of products of hundreds of brands at extremely competitive prices and ease. A security guard would now be able to buy a cell phone on Internet with ease. A vegetable vendor would now be able to buy a value for money camera for his family. The objective of iStreet Bazaar is to enable every common person to buy what he / she wants with ease and at great online prices. iStreet Bazaar is an eCommerce store for Sab ke Liye.

The company has opened over 100 such stores so far. The company has drawn the plan to set up 1,100 stores during FY 2014-15 and take these numbers to 2,800 by end of FY 2015-16.

Customer Development

To enhance the footfalls into the stores of iStreet Bazaar, the company has already tied up with few of media companies and in the process for few more. The idea of creating ''neighborhood store'' is pretty strong at the core of the company''s strategy. With the continuous training program, network partners of the company shall be equipped to handle and build strong customer base in their areas.

Supply Chain

How many categories and how many products do the company''s platform offers is the key for success. iStreet Bazaar platform is already offering over 25,000 products with a good pipeline. With continuous efforts of its team, the company shall be able to expand its category and product base very fast.

Logistic / Fulfillment

Efficient fulfillment system is critical for success of any eCommerce venture. The company has tied up with large number of courier and logistic companies to ensure that fulfillment of orders are done in the shortest possible time.

Human Resources

The Company had outsourced its major activities so the human resources, expert in their respective fields, in the initial stage of its project and therefore it did not employ much people. Now the company has started building its own core team and has already hired few key people.

Finance & Accounts - Risk and Internal Adequacy

During the year company''s total revenue has grown from Rs. 5 1.70 lacs to Rs. 71.13 lacs registering a growth of 38% whereas Digital and eCommerce segment has grown over 90%.

The company has parked extra surplus funds with couple of companies as Inter corporate Deposit bearing interest on call basis. The company further raising resources by disposing off its underperforming / non-productive manufacturing assets.

In addition, to expand and its activities, the Board of Directors of the company has decided to raise further Rs. 100 crores in by various ways including debt, equity thru preferential route etc. or any other method as may be suggested by the Financial Advisors of the company, subject to the necessary approvals by the regulators and shareholders.

The Company has a proper and adequate system of internal control to ensure that all activities are monitored and controlled against any unauthorized use or disposition of assets and that the transactions are authorized, recorded and reported correctly.

Legal Compliances & Branding

The company is legally compliant and taken all the necessary steps to protect its brand image at all levels.

Challenges, Risk & Concern

Risks related to this business are:

* Competition from online and off line market

* Non performance of the Network partner

* High Media Cost

* Raising financial resources for the project

The company however, shall be taking due steps in order to expand and protect its business through the legal framework available in the country and evolving, designing and executing more robust strategies.
