20. Management Discussion and Analysis:

In terms of the provisions of Regulation 34 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosures Requirements) Regulation 2015, the Management Discussion and Analysis has been given hereunder.

a. Industry Scenario/India key market trends :

Despite the challenges thrown up by continued geopolitical conflicts between Russia-Ukraine War, Israel and Palestine war, Iran & Israel attack and modest global growth, growing domestic demand, which has aided its strong growth.

India's economy is a complex mix of agriculture, manufacturing and a rapidly growing service sector. Despite the significant role of Agriculture, the sector faces challenges like low productivity and inadequate infrastructure and is vulnerable to climatic conditions. Manufacturing varies from village industries to modern industries like pharma, automobiles and textiles. The service sector, including IT and financial services, has seen rapid expansion, becoming a major contributor to GDP.

Macro-economic risks

Indian economy has become the fifth largest economy in the world. The major election uncertainties are out of the way and likely announcement of rate cuts by central banks in west. But India will likely see improved capital flows boosting private investments and a rebound in export.

c. Outlook :

Even outlook looks positive in FY 2024-25, the recent rapid rate hike may have impact on credit. It has been forcasted that the agriculture sector may have negligible impact due to El-Nino factor and monsoon will remain normal.

The consensus among our analysts is for India to remain among Asia's top performers in the coming years boosted by domestic political stability, a business-friendly reform agenda, strong population growth and increased interest of foreign firms looking to diversify supply chains away from China .

d. Risks and concerns:

i. Risk related of Raw Materials: Risks associated with key procurement relationships include: a. the availability of raw materials, more particularly Iron & Steel ;

b. the price of raw materials may be subject to material changes in world-wide pricing levels;

c. Very high input costs such as freight and electricity and frequent fluctuation in raw material prices in the market ; and

d. key supplier relationships may be lost or impaired, contracts renewed on less favorable terms or exit of key suppliers from the market.

The Company plans well in advance to procure the raw materials from the domestic reputed supplier located in different parts of the country to mitigate risk relating to availability of raw materials.

e. Internal Control System and their Adequacy:

The Company's internal audit system has been continuously monitored and updated to ensure that assets are safeguarded, established regulations are complied with and pending issues are addressed promptly.
