OVERVIEW
INSIGHT
During the year under review, revenue from operations of the Company decreased to Rs. 4844.29 Lacs as compared to Rs. 5127.00 Lacs in the previous year. This was mainly due to the last minute Nation wide lockdown declared in the last week of March, 2020, as per the directives of the Central / respective State Government(s) to arrest the spread of the COVID 19 pandemic, leaving the Company with ready material which couldn’t be dispatched. However, in spite of this decrease in the Turnover, the Company was able to close the year with a profit of INR 107.97 Lacs (before provision of tax) as against a previous year’s profit of INR 634.11 Lacs. This amount of sales and profit was achieved by continuously improving the production and productivity by removing bottlenecks in operations and by adding new Plant and Machinery.
During the year, The Company incurred a forex gain of Rs. 0.61 Lacs only as compared to a forex loss of Rs. 0.25 Lacs in the previous year, basically as a result of better management of the forex transactions, as relative instability in the forex market continued in this financial year.
During the year, The Company achieved an export sales of Rs. 73.88 Lacs as against Rs. 27.67 Lacs in the previous year. However, the management has taken strong initiative and is confident that it will pick-up in the coming years.
During the year, The Company has further worked actively towards rationalizing its business and product portfolio, whilst adding new product lines, to better utilise the available talent and resources and stay abreast of the market dynamics in new products. Exercise commenced three years back for cost cutting, savings in power and fuel as well as improving efficiency and productivity continued relentlessly and is helping the Company reap rich dividends. Balancing of Plant and Machineries, refurbishing old equipment and addition of new equipments and machineries with a view to optimizing production through modernization, was undertaken on top priority as was production planning and optimization of raw materials procurement and stocks, which continued this year too.
In context of the impact of COVID-19, the international Monetary Fund (IMF) has cut its 2020-21 growth projection for India to 1.9% from 5.8% projected in January 2020. Major international ratings agencies like S&P, Fitch and Moody’s had also cut India’s growth forecast to 0% from 3%. India and China are the only two economies in the world that are not projected to shrink in 2020 even though their growth rates have slowed down considerably. However, the actual impact of pandemic on the economy will depend upon severity and course of COVID-19, and it’s probably too early to make any justifiable comments.
In response to the decelerating economic growth, government has undertaken many supportive measures and made significant policy changes during the year including fiscal measures like corporate tax rate cuts, bank recapitalization, sectoral reforms to boost core sectors etc. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has also announced prudent monetary policies, reduced the policy rates for the sixth consecutive time and maintained its accommodative monetary policy stance. These measures supported the economy and businesses during 2019 despite the challenging macroeconomic indicators.
The Company has taken various
initiatives towards financial, medical and community support in the fight
against Covid-19 pandemic. In view of the outbreak of the pandemic, the Company
undertook timely and essential measures to ensure the safety and well-being of
all its employees at all its plant locations, various branch offices and the
head office. The Company observed all the government advisories and guidelines
thoroughly and in good faith. Despite the negative outlook for the global and
domestic economy, the responsive action by the Indian government with supportive
monetary policy are expected to improve the business environment in India and
should help build a beʃer foundation for an economic resurgence post COVID-19.
