MANAGEMENT COMMENTS:
Commenting on the developments, Mr Vinay Tripathi, CMD said "We are happy to share with you the strong financial performance delivered by our company for the FY 2018-19. We offer end-to-end Logistics services for export and import cargo utilizing multiple modes of transport such as sea, road, rail and air being A multimodal transport operator.
In FY19 our container volumes have shown strong growth, as we successfully added new commodities to our portfolio such as paper, fabrics, agricultural products, Heavy Machinery (Project / ODC Cargo), Yarn Industry etc. We aspire to continue this strong growth momentum and adding to our client base. Despite the decline in Ocean freights in FY19 on account of the US-China trade war, our In-house fleet and higher volumes have enabled us sustain growth while maintaining operating and profitability margins.
We now have 64 strategic partnerships across the world. We are also working to ensure we maintain our leadership position in the Granite & Marble segment, where we continue enjoy a market share of 45 % of the overall Indian trade in this segment.
We have received a number of awards during the year in appreciation of our performance. Accuracy Shipping Ltd (ASL) won two SKOCH Awards “Gold Award in Top 200 MSME’s in India and Bronze Award for MSME Excellence. We have also been certified as AEO Certified company as per Indian Customs in appreciation of our commitment to secure the international supply chain and in compliance with WCO’s SAFE Framework of standards. It is now recognized in AEO LO Category.
To improve transparency and as part of our restructuring effort to bring all similar line of business into the fold of ASL, in December, 2019 we have merged our Sister Concern ARS Transport, Balaji Freight Carrier and Ars Clearing & Forwarding LLP into the company. This has resulted in an increase in the total HCV fleet to 279 HCV’s.
Our commitment to minority shareholders is reflected in our actions. In addition to the Interim dividend of 10% declared on August 3, 2018 in the first year of listing. I thank the entire team for their constant efforts, sincerity and enthusiasm. Also, I would like to thank our valued Shareholders, who have reposed faith in our Company and supported us along with their critical inputs.”
