III.OTHER INFORMATION:

1. Reasons of Loss or Inadequate Profits:

While the domestic capital goods sector is showing signs of revival, growth is expected to be gradual, given the slow revival of investments. Even though, growth in the overseas markets seems more sustainable, competition from global manufacturers continues requiring a balanced approach to pricing and market share for success in these markets. In addition, as an Indian manufacturer, it continues to face significant competition from global peers in the overseas markets which brings certain level of pricing competitiveness. Further, to sustain & derisk business, the company continues to focus on overseas markets, offer machines for new applications, invest in automation and enhancement of facilities to meet international

quality standards. These initiative as also global market development efforts involve significant costs which are to be incurred on an ongoing basis. Though some of the above initiatives will contribute to the sustain ability and growth of the business in the future, some of the above factors may have a bearing on the company in cost, realizations and profits.

2. Steps taken or proposed to be taken for improvement:

Renewed focus to improve overseas markets which is the mainstay of company's turnover while there is a marked improvement in the domestic market. Opportunities are gradually opening up in certain sectors the in domestic market. Certain overseas wholly owned subsidiaries are expected to perform well in the market which will enable the Company to be in a position to gain a good market share in overseas operations. Measures have been initiated towards cost rationalization & control. Steps are ongoing to make generators for newer applications and markets thus expanding Revenue and margins.

3. Expected increase in productivity and profits in measurable terms:

The steps initiated as above are expected to increase sales, improve capacity utilization, realizations and profitability year on year. It is also expected that new markets/applications/ sectors will provide better opportunities for better margins.

  • In order to increase the efficiency of the voting process, pursuant to a public consultation, it has been decided to enable e-voting to all the demat account holders, by way of a single login credential, through their demat accounts / websites of Depositories / Depository Participants. Demat account holders would be able to cast their vote without having to register again with the ESPs, thereby, not only facilitating seamless authentication but also enhancing ease and convenience of participating in e-voting process.

  • (iv) (a) In terms of SEBI circular no. SEBI/ HO/CFD/ CMD/CIR/P/2020/ 242 dated December 9, 2020 on e-Voting facility provided by Listed Companies, Individual shareholders holding securities in demat mode are allowed to vote through their demat account maintained with Depositories and Depository Participants.
