DIRECTORS' REPORT

TO

THE SHAREHOLDERS

Your Directors have the pleasure of presenting their Seventy-first Annual Report, together with the Audited Financial Statements of your Company for the year ended 31st March, 2016.

GENERAL & CORPORATE MATTERS

Your Company has achieved the gross revenue of Rs. 841.06 Crores in the current fiscal as compared to Rs. 764.91 Crores for the previous fiscal. Your Company has made a substantial swing in its overall financial performance from its previous year's loss of Rs. 34.71 Crores to a profit of Rs. 19.55 Crores. Detailed operational working of your Company is provided in the Management Discussion and Analysis forming part of the Annual Report.

The change of fortune in your Company has been primarily due to the strategic positioning of your Company in the high-end market segment. Envisioning the imminent change in the market structure where higher voltage cable demand would grow at a significant pace, your Company had upgraded the manufacturing infrastructure to take advantage of this opportune moment and is optimistic to continue its growth in a sustainable and profitable manner.

Your Company had made heavy investments in the past for up-grading and modernizing its technology and plant & machinery. As the market had continued to remain depressed, your Company fell under financial duress leading to heavy interest burden which eroded its profitability and created a constraint on its working capital. As a measure of improving liquidity and reduce finance costs, your Company raised funds through Rights Issue by offering 1,15,65,127 equity shares of face value of Rs. 10/- each for cash at a price of Rs. 51/- per equity share aggregating Rs. 5,898.21 lacs and re-paid/prepaid in part certain unsecured inter-corporate loans and utilised the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes as specified in the Letter of Offer. Your Company had received full subscription and the issue was closed on 14th October, 2015. Your Company has chalked-out a road-map on its strategic business plan considering the achievable goals rather than the aspirational ones. The strategic fundamentals have been on expanding the business in the extra-high-voltage underground power transmission cables. Presently, the market growth has been robust in this segment and your Company has been able to take good mileage out of this opportunity. Your Company foresees a sustainable growth in this segment. Your Company is largely dependent on the demand from the power & infrastructural sectors. The power sector is heavily reliant on the conventional energy which contributes 72% of the power generation. As a consequence, the constraints on fuel linkages has undermined the power sector. With the coal production improving significantly, the industry can expect better response in terms of larger demand from the power generation sector. The balance 28% of the power generation is through renewable sources. The Government has given immense thrust on solar and wind energy where the resources are in abundance in the country. Your Company plays a dominant role in the wind energy sector. It is reported that the power generation capacity has to multiply five times by 2032 to maintain a GDP growth rate of 8-9%. From this, it is evident that there has to be a consistent year-on-year growth with a capacity addition of 20 GW to meet this target. Your Company keeps a track on the gradual changes in the energy-mix of the power sector where the renewable energy is gaining prominence, thus influencing the demand and product-mix for power cables. This could entail a change in the business strategy. The power transmission sector poses a colossal challenge as it is reported that projects worth Rs. 33,900 Crores planned for implementation are in a static mode, thereby creating bulk power evacuation a serious concern. To resolve this issue, huge investments are imperative for constructing multiple power corridors. Your Company is already experiencing the growth wave from the sub-transmission sector. Your Company is the forefront player in the EHV cable market, hence with its strong manufacturing infrastructure, it is geared to reap the harvest from this market potential.

The power distribution companies (Discoms), the last mile of the power chain are in financial duress. Overcoming the financial woes of Discoms is critical for the Government to achieve its target of 100% village electrification, 24x7 power supply and renewable energy capacity addition, as well as for implementing the smart cities and national flagship initiatives e.g., "Make in India" and "Digital India". As the Government is taking serious revival strategy, this segment would give a boost to the demand of cables which is a major component of the power distribution system.

The infrastructural sector is undergoing encouraging changes with the national policy for development & modernization. The capital outlay for the infrastructural sector consisting of metro railways, roads, ports, airports, etc., as announced in the Union Budget would be around Rs. 2,20,000 Crores. This investment would induce growth in demand for the overall engineering sector where power cable is no exception.

Presently, the Indian Electrical Equipment manufacturers have less than 1% share in the global market, hence, a significant export growth potential for the industry is imminent. Your Company is steadily increasing its overseas customer base. Considering, the growing business potential around the Indian Ocean rim, your Company has embarked on a strategic mission to expand its overseas business in a sustainable manner.

In general, the OEM industries e.g., heavy engineering equipment manufacturers are not in a vibrant state due to lack of funds resulting to deferment of various projects. Your Company feels that this is a temporary status and expects revival of such OEMs in the forthcoming years with the proposed investments.

The statistical report on the loss of market share suffered by the Indian Electrical Industry as a consequence of imports has been 43%. Nevertheless, the cable industry in particular has not conceded its share to the overseas players to this extent. Your Company expects to maintain its growth of business in the overseas market.

The brand of your Company maintains its pre-eminent position as the most trusted name in the market. In order to retain its brand image and market position, your Company is enhancing the manufacturing capacity of various production lines by implementing CAPEX plan in a phase wise manner.

Your Company has always maintained its policy to retain talent and also to hone the skills of its employees for deliverance of their capabilities and creativity to contribute to their work place and your Company at large.

DIVIDEND

Your Company has issued and allotted 1,15,65,127 equity shares of face value of Rs. 10/- each for cash at a price of Rs. 51/- per equity share (including a premium of Rs.41/- per equity share) aggregating to Rs. 5898.21 lacs, pursuant to Letter of Offer dated 14th September, 2015. However, dispatch of share certificate(s) in physical form and credit in the respective demat account(s) in respect of 27,05,553 additional equity shares, in aggregate, allotted to certain allotters under category "C" of the basis of allotment as per Letter of Offer have not yet been completed in view of the status-quo order passed by the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi on 18th November, 2015. Accordingly, out of total equity shares issued and allotted 88,59,574 equity shares have been admitted for trading on BSE Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited with effect from 2nd December, 2015.
