379
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:03,039
continue to achieve greater and greater

380
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:06,080
success in coming year. Thank you. I am

381
00:20:03,039 --> 00:20:09,280
only one question. What is aim and

382
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:12,640
object of future development by applying

383
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:15,200
AI technology? Nothing more. Chairman

384
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:17,200
sir, please consider the valicitation

385
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,760
for rewards.

386
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:23,039
It's very important for encouragement

387
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:27,760
and appreciation. Chairman sir, please

388
00:20:23,039 --> 00:20:30,159
listen to me. Long time we are deprived.

389
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:32,240
Please consider the rewards for

390
00:20:30,159 --> 00:20:35,600
felicitation. Thank you sir. Thank you

391
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:39,520
so much. members ask a question

392
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:43,200
depending on the availability of time

393
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:49,039
may may I request uh

394
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:49,039
Mr. Khani uh to answer the questions Mr.

395
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:04,159
request

396
00:21:00,559 --> 00:21:07,039
here to answer the question.

397
00:21:04,159 --> 00:21:09,600
Hello. Now I've been unmuted.

398
00:21:07,039 --> 00:21:10,159
Yes, it is.

399
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,000
Yes, ma'am.

400
00:21:10,159 --> 00:21:14,720
Basically, the question question is

401
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:17,440
about uh the business of the company.

402
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:22,000
The order book of the company as of now

403
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:25,360
is uh 1,500 cr which is very well spread

404
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:28,799
out uh into several sectors. Roads

405
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:34,799
contribute 20 uh roads contribute uh 25%

406
00:21:28,799 --> 00:21:40,159
building 24% power 21% piling 16% and

407
00:21:34,799 --> 00:21:44,080
urban inra 14%. And uh the sources are

408
00:21:40,159 --> 00:21:47,600
53% from uh government and 47% from

409
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:51,360
private sector. Then uh domestic is

410
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:54,720
about 85% and 15% is overseas. And

411
00:21:51,360 --> 00:21:58,720
looking at the bids already tendered

412
00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:02,000
which are about 1,900 cr uh that gives a

413
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:06,159
glimpse of the order book uh which may

414
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:09,840
happen in future. roads 12% building 8%

415
00:22:06,159 --> 00:22:12,720
power 45% piling 5% and industrial

416
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:15,760
structure 30%. So that is where our

417
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:18,480
strength always lie and we have PQ in

418
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:21,360
all the sectors and uh the order book

419
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:24,000
will be basically uh for about 18

420
00:22:21,360 --> 00:22:26,640
months. So we are concentrating on short

421
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:28,559
duration medium duration projects piling

422
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:32,240
are very short duration and others will

423
00:22:28,559 --> 00:22:34,640
be 18 months. So visibility is good and

424
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:36,640
uh we will be able to uh achieve the

425
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:39,679
target for this year which is a modest

426
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:41,600
target of about 1,000 cr and that we

427
00:22:39,679 --> 00:22:43,360
will be able to achieve because the the

428
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:47,440
working capital infusion has already

429
00:22:43,360 --> 00:22:49,840
taken place. So that was the only

430
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:53,919
deficiency which we had that has plugged

431
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:55,440
with the equity issue. So far as uh new

432
00:22:53,919 --> 00:22:56,720
technology is concerned, we are always

433
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,679
up to date with the technology of

434
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:02,720
construction for minimizing wastages and

435
00:22:59,679 --> 00:23:05,520
uh renewal energy etc because the

436
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,360
projects are spread out throughout the

437
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:10,640
country in country location outside

438
00:23:07,360 --> 00:23:13,600
location. So whatever power is available

439
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:17,120
or we have to use sets

440
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:19,039
then carbon black carbon credit etc

441
00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:21,679
question has not been attended to yet.

442
00:23:19,039 --> 00:23:24,320
we have to first uh put our uh business

443
00:23:21,679 --> 00:23:28,400
onto a uh higher growth and profitable

444
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:31,520
trajectory. The GST reforms uh will

445
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:33,200
basically reduce the working capital uh

446
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,520
blockage

447
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:38,159
otherwise uh it is only pass through

448
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:41,600
mechanism. We will not be benefited or

449
00:23:38,159 --> 00:23:43,520
will not be adversely affected.

450
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:45,440
Of course the dividend etc will be

451
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:48,720
possible only when the company performs

452
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:50,640
and the loans etc are reasonably repaid.

453
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:53,039
So that restrictions are no longer in

454
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:56,240
place. We are looking forward to and

455
00:23:53,039 --> 00:23:58,080
working towards higher growth with

456
00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:01,679
higher profitability

457
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:04,960
so that company comes to its original

458
00:24:01,679 --> 00:24:07,520
glory as in the past. Thank you.

459
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:10,159
Thank you Mr. Mr. You want to add

460
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,760
anything to what Mr. Kakani has said?

461
00:24:10,159 --> 00:24:14,720
Almost all the questions have been

462
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:17,600
answered by Mr. Kakani.

463
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:20,960
uh only one question left which was not

464
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:23,679
attended by Mr. coming that is uh San

465
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:25,200
Shto G asked one question woman

466
00:24:23,679 --> 00:24:28,960
empowerment

467
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:31,440
already we have number of women staff

468
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:33,840
who are in senior positions and

469
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:37,679
contributing to the company and we are

470
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:42,000
gradually trying to engage more

471
00:24:37,679 --> 00:24:45,279
competent women for our growth in future

472
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:49,120
test which is in our mind and plan

473
00:24:45,279 --> 00:24:52,880
management is also balancing both woman

474
00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:56,480
and men in the staff

475
00:24:52,880 --> 00:25:00,240
uh employment in future also. This is

476
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:03,520
only one question left out almost all

477
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:07,600
questions and markets are enjoying in

478
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:10,720
operation that is joy.

479
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:14,240
Now our turnover is not much than what

480
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:18,240
we perform in earlier years and it is

481
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:21,440
not much in comparison to the total

482
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:25,919
construction or infrastructure industry.

483
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:30,240
It was not exactly calculated the share

484
00:25:25,919 --> 00:25:34,880
but in future years as per our plan we

485
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:38,880
will regain our participation or market

486
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:42,960
share in the future years to come.

487
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:45,600
This is all from my side.

488
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:48,960
Thank you Mr. Kakani and thank you Mr.

489
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:51,840

490
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:54,799

491
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:57,520
questions have been responded to and if

492
00:25:54,799 --> 00:25:59,440
