MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS REPORT

The information, as required under clause 49 of the Listing Agreement, is as under :-

a) INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS

As developed economies especially the U.S. made a gradual recovery, the global economy also registered a moderate growth. Overall global growth is expected to witness slow but steady revival over the next few years. Also the growth in the global economy remains irregular with the euro region still vulnerable and the slowdown in China due to lower investment by the government on fixed capital formation.

Indian economy has also led to steady revival, backed by a very determined government focused on clearing fundamental hurdles and increasing the ease of doing business. Further, Indian Economy is poised to return to its high growth path, thanks to lower fiscal and current account deficits, falling inflation, falling cost of capital and structural reforms to boost investments.

Further, almost stable currency market as compared to the brvious year , contributed to stability in International Trade. "Make in India" initiative of the Indian Government is also expected to boost not only the growth of domestic industry but of the International Trade as well. Looking ahead, there is ample optimism about the International Trade to grow to high trajectory.

b) OPPORTUNITIES & THREATS

With the reform oriented and business friendly government at the center and India developing at a growth rate which is ahead of all other developing economies of the world, the opportunities for the company appears to be endless. However the trading industry may face the risk of imposition of a ban on import/export of a commodity by the government of any country, decrease in consumer demand, price war among key competitors.

c) FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

We have during the financial year registered growth in our sales in the International Trade division alongwith a growth in profitability as well.

The Profit before debrciation & tax during the year has also increased to Rs. 7503 Lacs as against Rs. 6485 Lacs in the brvious year. The Profit after Tax has also increased to Rs. 4931 Lacs as against Rs. 4229 Lacs of the brvious year due to negative forex variations. However, profitability of the Company has decreased in Real Estate segment from Rs.1247 Lacs to Rs.791 Lacs whereas in Trading items segment the profit has increased to Rs. 8007 Lacs from Rs. 7045 Lacs in the brvious year.

d) OUTLOOK

With the global economy appearing to be on the path of revival and with the high income economies showing signs of firm recovery after years of low growth and/or recession, the outlook for the International Trading Industry in particular and Trading Industry in general appears to be bright. With the formation of the new stable Government at the Center and its focus on the development of the infrastructure of the country and with the rising demand for the houses the outlook for the real estate industry appears to be bright.
