It is the job of the leadership to get the strategy right and design
the right structure. Then successful teams can tie the strategy with
structure with very well defined systems and deliver performance with
profit
Report for the year 2007-08
It gives me great pleasure to present the highlights of Teledata
Informatics Ltd for the year 2007-08. This is the first year, when the
activities of Teledata Informatics Ltd, as a stand alone company are
reviewed. After implementation of the Demerger process, two companies,
namely Teledata Marine Systems Ltd (TMSL) and Teledata Technology
solutions Ltd (TTSL) have been formed as separate entities. Therefore
Teledata Informatics Ltd, now has a new focus, efficient operational
structure and well defined markets within and outside India.
The process of organizational change in the Teledata Group is both
challenging and invigorating. During the current Financial year, the
management invested its time and energy to monitor the process of
reorganization, reorientation and re-engineering, to set new standards
of performance and to develop successful teams in Teledata Informatics
Ltd .The challenge every company faces on Demerger are
a) The prospects of special core strengths in each of the demerged
companies becoming islands of excellence and silos of expertise at the
cost of cooperation and synergy
b) The possibility of reinventing the wheel in each company, with the
focus turned inwards
c) The slide, by way of inertia and lack of creative effort, towards
duplicating layers of bureaucracy in each company, increasing the cost
and reducing the productivity.
Our talented senior Management teams have been trained to take
advantage of the new opportunities for each of the three companies and
leverage, cross-sell and synergise intelligently and suitably, the
special core strengths of the three companies in Teledata Group.
During the year under review Teledata Informatics Ltd (with the
verticals of Software Development & Services, Education, Utility,
Networking & Communication ,TBO etc), functioned as a relisted company
with a consolidated net worth of Rs. 414.29 Crores (about 83 million
USD) and equity capital of Rs. 39.33 Cr (about 8 million USD), with
19.66 Crores equity shares of Rs.2 each, with promoters share holding
of 25.23%.
Sales and Profit
The annual Sales for the year ending Mar.2008 work out to Rs.1036.44
Crores and the Profit after Tax is Rs.250.51 Crores.Though top line has
increased by about 14%, the current years figures of sales and profit
can not be realistically compared with the previous years figures due
to changed entities J would like to thank every one in the Teledata
family, for their collective performance to contain the cost, very
effectively during the year, when Demerger puts lot of pressure on cost
increase.
