PERFORMANCE REVIEW:

The Company is engaged in the business of manufacture, sale and installation of solar photovoltaic power plants, solar lamps, solar power conditioning units and other solar products like charge controller, solar pump controller, solar adaptors, solar generators, junction boxes etc.

The turnover of the Company for the year under review was Rs. 2201.93 Lakh compared to Rs. 1539.67 Lakh in the previous year. During the year under report the Turnover has increased nearly by 43%, however, net profit has decreased by approx. 544% majorly due to IPO expenditure and compared to the previous year..

Company’s core strength lies in acquiring and delivering technology in the niche business segments, gained though intensive interaction with clients and R&D on new technologies. Emphasis are being given on understanding customers’ pain points and offering innovative solutions. This would entail long term business relationship with the customers at all levels, specially Government Contracts. The company thrives on providing development support on leading edge technologies for solar power / green power industry. The technologies that are being used are indigenously developed and rigorously tested to be proven as useful before being offered to the customers so as to ensure highest degree of customer satisfaction. A low-cost high quality delivery center helps the company to retain the competitive advantage and that has been the main strategy of the company while serving clients across the country.

STATE OF COMPANY’S AFFAIRS:

Our Company is primarily an EPC company with a dedicated bunch of highly skilled and experienced engineers and technicians having deep commitment to maintain high quality of work and maintenance. We have a strong Design Engineering Team which is geared up for taking up all sorts of challenging designs for solar and hybrid power plants. Also the Company has a dedicated R&D facility to research and develop new indigenous products. This enables the Company to customize its products as per customer requirements. The R&D facility anticipates shifts in consumer preferences and uses emerging technologies to improve existing products. This has reduced dependency on technology outsourcing and ensures product innovation in product quality and features in environment friendly processes.

Solar Electricity generated from solar PV power plant is now more economic than coal or gas based thermal power electricity and is also pollution free. From the considerations of climate change Govt. of India and many State Govts are promoting Solar Electricity by making provisions of Net Metering from 500kWp to 1 MWp solar plants on rooftop. This has opened up a huge potential of solar industries in India. Many Municipalities and Corporations are making it mandatory for installation of Solar Power plants on its building rooftops for reducing electricity consumption from fossil fuel sources and thereby reducing carbon footprint.

Many State Governments are also giving increased importance to generate more energy from renewable energy sources to bridge the gap between energy demand and supply and also to supplement grid power. These include programmes for Solar Street Lights for Rural, Urban and Remote Areas, Solar PV Systems for Schools and Community Establishments, Solar PV Power Plants for Village Electrification, Construction of High MW Capacity Grid Connected SPV Power Plant, and Solar PV in off-grid application.

The Company is involved in design, supply, installation and commissioning of all these types of few kW to few MW level solar power plants in different parts of India. Most of them are under Govt tendering procedure but recently a number of solar power plants from private sectors and semi-Govt organizations have been successfully completed by the Company.

The present scenario of solar PV market is seeing a huge change due to aggressive policy changes of the Govt. and many companies with sound financial changes are entering into the market to tap the MW range power plants on establishing the power plants of large scale (5-500MW range) and selling the energy to the National Grid through competitive bidding process. To tap this market, the Company must have solid financial strength and it is not possible for us to arrange such funding. Moreover, many establishments are now interested to install the power plant at their own premises and want to buy power for the entire life of the plant (around 25 years) from the installer who will arrange financing of their own and will recover the finance through monthly bill payment (RESCO Model). Therefore, in both the above scenario the institutional financing is required which the company is trying to explore to tap this market.

In addition, the company is planning to strengthen its R&D activity for developing capability for designing and manufacturing Solar Hybrid Inverters up to 100 kW or more and also set a facility for assembling batter stacks of LiFePO4 battery for solar and EV applications. Company is also planning to reinforce its capability for designing and manufacturing of charge controllers for applications in Solar -EV applications.
