Review of Operations

Even as the market sentiments seemed surcharged with the installation of the new government, no tangible change was witnessed in the business environment during Fiscal 2015. The much expected kick start of investments and consequent industrial growth resulting in an improvement in order book was belied. The capital goods industry was subdued belying expectations of a recovery. The core sector of power, cement, steel, oil & gas was sluggish resulting in virtually no expansion in these sectors affecting order flows to the capital goods sector. The world economy continued to be slow and did not instill confidence.

In these challenging circumstances, your Company increased its revenue from operations by Rs. 3,756 lakhs in Fiscal 2015- a rise of about 9.77% on the back of a moderate growth of 18% in orders. Net sales from manufacturing business at Rs. 35,609.12 Lakhs, increased by Rs. 4,773.06 Lakhs, a growth of 15.48% in Fiscal 2015, contributing 84.39% of our Total Income in Fiscal 2015, as compared to 80.22% in Fiscal 2014. Net sales from our Project Business at Rs. 4,867.40 Lakhs increased by Rs. 284.55 Lakhs, a subdued growth of 6.21% in Fiscal 2015 contributing 11.54% of our Total Income as compared to 11.92% in Fiscal 2014.

Exports and deemed exports contributed 66% of Revenue as compared to about 49% in the previous year which reflects our continuing focus on growing our overseas markets. Steam generators contributed 46% of the turnover followed by Hydro generators at 27%. Considering the dismal state of the domestic market, overseas markets have assumed great significance in growing the Companies business year on year and the initiatives undertaken by the Company in the last 3-4 years in seeding these markets are yielding good results encouraging us to enlarge our presence in select markets overseas.

Earnings Before interest, tax, depreciation & amortization (EBITDA) lower by 14.10% at Rs. 5,472.94 Lakhs as compared to Rs. 6,370.93 Lakhs in the previous year due to lower realizations on account on Euro & JPY devaluation. The Profit after tax decreased by Rs. 1,702 lakhs to Rs. 1,696.29 Lakhs as compared to Rs. 3,398.85 Lakhs, a decrease of 50% over previous year mainly due to a higher depreciation and amortization charge of Rs. 2,800.60 lakhs an increase of Rs. 1,340.66 Lakhs or 91.83% over previous year due to increased capitalization of fixed assets, change in the useful life of the asset as prescribed under the Companies Act, 2013 ("Act") and amortization of technical know as per accounting policy of the Company.

The pending orders as of March 31, 2015 are Rs. 40,651.20 lakhs comprising of both manufacturing (Rs. 33,937.50 lakhs) and project business (Rs. 6,713.70 lakhs).

The net worth of the Company stands at Rs. 49,128.13 lakhs with the accretion of Rs. 484.89 lakhs to total reserves during the year.

A review of the operations of the subsidiaries as follows

Indian Subsidiary

During the year ended March 31, 2015, the weakness in order inflow both BTG / EPC projects continued to impact the performance of the Wholly Owned Subsidiary (WOS) DF Power Systems Private Limited. The orders for Thermal Power Market -15MW-150MW, the Company's mainstay was dismal in the year. Thermal Power Private EPC Companies reflected stress in domestic market and certain large players accepted orders merely in the hope of an improved market in future. Though there seemed some market traction starting in Small Power Plants (< 10MW) pricing was an issue. The Cement waste Heat recovery based Power plants, which was seen as an innovative option was cooling off due to lower fuel costs and longer payback periods. Thus, the overall scenario for power projects was rather dismal, the orders in the market were limited and at suboptimal prices prompting the Company to stay away from active bidding for projects.

The difficult market conditions continued to affect revenues and profitability of the Company. Though revenue of Rs. 16,479.99 lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2015 was higher as compared to Rs. 1,3034.71 lakhs for year ended March 31, 2014,this company incurred a net loss of Rs. 1,773.43 lakhs for the year as compared to a loss of Rs. 668.16 lakhs in the previous year.
