OUTLOOK
The outlook for the world economy is not encouraging. Most forecasts
predict the growth for the world economy for 2013 to be at about 3.2%.
As far as India is concerned, the GDP growth in 2012-2013 is likely to
fall below the Reserve Bank''s baseline projection of 5.8%. Advance
estimates of National Income, 2012-2013, estimates the GDP growth for
2012-2013 at 5%.
Your Company continues to pursue opportunities in marine, foundation
and specialist engineering and mass rapid transport system (MRTS)
projects, where it has built strong capability over the years. Your
Company is also looking to enhance its presence in civil works for
industrial projects, where hitherto it was mainly involved in piling
and foundation work. Delays in f nalization of orders on account of
non-receipt of environment clearances and /or f nancial closure on some
major prospects and lack of orders in certain areas are some matters of
concern. This situation is likely to continue for some more time which,
in turn, may impact your Company''s performance in the current year.
Although RBI expects inf ation to moderate below its baseline
projection of 7.5%, suppressed inf ation continues to pose a threat
and, consequently, RBI maintains a cautious approach to interest rate
reduction. But recent actions by RBI to reduce CRR and repo rates have
raised expectations on lower interest rates by the middle of the year.
Despite short term challenges faced by the infrastructure sector as a
whole, your Company is cautiously optimistic about the future prospects
for the sector.
