Managing Director of the Company, Mr Anil Jain said ..

"We have achieved significant positive turnaround in MIS business from last year’s high degrowth. We expect to maintain similar performance in rest of the year on the back of new business model and good monsoon rains. Our other major revenue earner, pipe business has also soared with very high level of growth and with good orders in hand, it shall sustain momentum. We recently finished mango processing season and almost all the quantity produced has been booked by customers in India and overseas. Thus, we are very bullish on our revenue prospects despite gloomy and volatile external economic environment and negative business sentiments in the country.

We have aggressively reduced overall receivables and we shall continue to do so over next few quarters despite high revenue growth. Increased inventory at peak level right now is function of seasonality in food business and preparation of strong Q2 for pipe business. Inventory shall come down considerably over next 3 quarters through increased revenue.

Elevated debt compared to March-13 is due to forex mark to market and growth in inventory. We remain committed to reduction of debt by 500 crores by Financial year 2014. We have been hit notionally due to mark to market forex temporarily. However, our efforts to boost exports are paying handsome dividends and we shall maintain higher growth rate in remainder of the year.

Environment is negative and news flow is challenging but our business shall prosper well in secular manner as we progress through the year."
