MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS REPORT

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

The Indian economy has faced a number of challenges during the last year which resulted in growth slow down, inflationarypressures and weakening of the rupee. This has been in the background of unsupportive external environment, domesticstructural constraints and political uncertainties. The outlook for the current year is projected to be better, but a major uncertainfactor is the outcome of the general elections.

The overall economic slowdown has impacted the industrial sector with lower investments, inordinate delay in projects alongwithother domestic and global factors has resulted in lower industrial growth including in the capital goods industry. During the lastyear, very few projects in the steel sector have been finalized. However, the Union Budget 2013-2014 has put emphasis oncontainment of inflationary pressures, mitigation of structural bottlenecks and raising investments.

After witnessing the lowest growth in GDP during the last decade, the Indian economy in 2013 has seen economic expansiondrop to levels even below the crisis year of 2008-2009. Domestic supply bottlenecks and policy obstacles have seen growthdecelerate and industrial output slump. The existing projects have been delayed due to financial constraints and implementationgaps. The high inflation and the tight monetary policy also continued to challenge the economic revival. The Government andRBI have taken measures to reduce fiscal deficit to provide stability and protect the credit standing. New investments areexpected in almost all the major industrial sectors. These changes are expected to yield positive results in the coming years andyour company will surely have its share of benefits in the India growth story.

FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

During the year ended 31st December, 2013, sales and other income was Rs. 1,233.23 lacs as against Rs. 1,113.30 lacs for theyear ended 31st December, 2012. There was a loss before taxation of Rs. 500.92 lacs for the current year ended 31st December,2013, as compared to loss before taxation of Rs. 436.34 lacs for the year ended 31st December, 2012.

SEGMENTAL INFORMATION

The Company has only one reportable business segment viz. engineering goods & services, which is being considered as theprimary segment. Disclosures as to the secondary segment, i.e. ‘Geographical Segments' are given below:

Notes:

1) Secondary segments are identified by the management as per the requirements of Accounting Standard (AS) - 17 'SegmentReporting" taking into account the organisation structure as well as the differing risks and returns.

2) The segment revenue and assets include revenue and assets, which are identifiable with each segment and amountallocated to the segments on a reasonable basis.

3) Figures in brackets are corresponding figures for the previous year.

OPPORTUNITIES & THREATS

The Company has access to the latest technology and systems as well as markets in China, Europe, South America, Africa andother parts of the world, where the Promoters, Terruzzi Fercalx SpA have a presence and has sub-contracted part of the ordersreceived by them in Zambia & Mongolia to the Company.

The aggressive competition by international and local companies in the area of Lime Kilns and Furnaces in the Indian marketcontinues to be a major problem, especially while bidding for large public sector projects which has significantly reduced theorder load. The Company has been exploring all avenues to reduce overheads, develop new markets and introduce newproducts and services. Concerted marketing efforts are also being made and which has started to show results and to improvethe order position.

Due to various reasons, inspite of all efforts made by the Company, the erection and commissioning of two large public sectorprojects under execution have still not been completed which has affected the Company's cash flow and profitability. Thepaucity of new orders is a matter of grave concern.

However, sourcing from India by Terruzzi Fercalx Group is expected to grow in the future. The Company with the help of TerruzziFercalx Group has expanded its geographical footprint into the international & domestic market and has taken a number ofinitiatives which are expected to yield good results in the forthcoming year.

Apart from downturn in the Indian economy, which is the reason for major projects not being finalized, India is a very pricesensitive market, which was also a cause for paucity of orders.

and on the accounting principle of going concern basis.

The Company follows mercantile system of accounting and recognizes income and expenditure on accrual basis

except those with significant uncertainties.

b) Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires

management to make estimates and assumptions that affects the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the

disclosures of contingent liabilities on the date of financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses

for that year. Although these estimates are based upon management's best knowledge of current events and actions,

actual results could differ from these estimates.

c) Fixed assets:

Fixed assets are stated at cost of acquisition (which includes freight, duties, taxes and incidental expenses) or at

revalued amount (wherever the assets are revalued) less accumulated depreciation.

Computer software, where it is expected to provide future enduring economic benefits is capitalised. The capitalised

cost includes license fees and cost of implementation / system integration services.

d) Depreciation and amortization:

50TH ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER, 2013

g) Foreign currency transactions:

Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of such transactions. Monetary

assets and liabilities as at the Balance Sheet date are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the date of the

Balance Sheet. Gains and losses arising on account of differences in foreign exchange rates on settlement/ translation

of monetary assets and liabilities are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. Non-monetary foreign currency

items are carried at cost.

i) Lease:

operating leases. Lease rentals in respect of properties acquired under operating leases are charged off to the

statement of profit and loss as incurred.

j) Accounting for taxes on income:

Tax expenses comprises of current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax represents tax on profits for the current year as determined as per the provisions of the Income Tax Act,

1961.

The deferred tax for timing differences between the book and tax profits for the year are accounted based on tax rates

in force and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted as of the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets

arising from timing differences, are recognised to the extent there is reasonable / virtual certainty that these would be

realized in future and are reviewed for the appropriateness of their respective carrying values at each balance sheet

date.

k) Accounting for provisions and contingent liabilities:

A provision is made when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow of

resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted to its

present value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date.

A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but

probably will not, require an outflow of resources. Where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in

respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

l) Impairment of assets:

The Company assesses, at each balance sheet date, whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired.

If any such indication exists, the management estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. If such recoverable

amount of the asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The

reduction is treated as an impairment loss and recognised in the statement of profit and loss. If, at the balance sheet

date, there is an indication that a previously assessed impairment loss no longer exists, the recoverable amount is

reassessed and the asset is reflected at the recoverable amount, subject to a maximum of depreciated historical cost.

m) Earnings per share

The basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing the net profit or loss after tax for the year available for the

equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. For the purpose of

calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit or loss after tax for the year available for equity shareholders and the

weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential

equity shares.
