Mr. G. S. Agrawal
Vice President (Legal & Taxation) and Company Secretary
Dear Members,
I welcome you all to this 105th Annual General Meeting and present the Annual Report of your Company.
The year under consideration has been a challenging one for the economy in general and the Capital goods
sector in particular. Domestic supply bottlenecks and policy obstacles have led to deceleration in growth, slump
in industrial output and holding up of new investments.
Your Company has ended the year with challenges on the order booking and project execution fronts which
have led to shrinking of both revenues and profitability. The order book stands at INR 1671 Crore at the end
of September 2013 which compares favourably to that of last financial year. Company has been selective in
booking of orders and has not compromised on quality despite subdued market conditions.
Going forward your Company has drawn up comprehensive plans to grow its business both in its traditional
businesses like Sugar, Co-generation and Cement machinery as well as high potential and niche domains
like Defence and Aerospace. There would be a sustained focus on Exports markets as well particularly Africa,
South East Asia and Latin America.
We are sure that macro-economic stability coupled with emphasis on execution and organizational alignment
would enable your Company to deliver much improved and sustained results in the years going ahead.
I take this opportunity to place on record my sincere thanks for your continued support and look forward to
similar confidence from the shareholding fraternity in the years to come.
Thank You,
Chakor L. Doshi
Chairman
