4. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Introduction

The infrastructure sector plays a pivotal role in driving India’s economic growth and overall development. As the country continues on its path towards becoming a global economic powerhouse, the need for robust infrastructure becomes increasingly apparent. The macroeconomic outlook for infrastructure is favourable in 2025. Interest rates have begun to moderate which should relieve some of the pressure that assets faced over 2024, while economic growth and inflation are expected to remain supportive to earnings growth. However, risks are weighted to the downside from the uncertainty around a potentially more challenging and inflationary trade environment.

I nfrastructure continued to deliver positive returns in 2024 for investors, although we expect performance to improve in 2025. In particular, assets with greenfield development pipelines have faced increased scrutiny under the higher rate environment, boosting investor confidence that valuations are solidifying.

The relationship between transactions activity and fund raising volumes was made stark over 2024, but as confidence in the M&A market returns, liquidity should increase and infrastructure’s fund raising will likely recover

2025 is set to be a more positive year for the unlisted infrastructure market in our opinion, although 2024 laid much of the groundwork for a recovery to fully take hold. Valuations have remained robust for the market as a whole, and those sectors which have experienced repricing - namely those with high capital expenditure profiles - have now settled and are beginning to attract investor attention. As confidence (and the need to divest) builds, transactions activity likely will tick upwards, releasing liquidity into the fund raising market, satisfying a continued demand from investors to allocate higher levels of capital to the strong performing infrastructure asset class.

Major plans of Indian Infrastructure:

The Indian Government in its budget FY25-26 announced that the outlay for infrastructure development will be increased to Rs.11.21 lakhcrore. When compared to last year, the outlay has seen an 11.1% increase. More cities will get Namo Bharat and Metro Rail infrastructure projects. Infrastructure spending not only acts as a catalyst for economic growth, but is also likely to provide enormous employment opportunities for the unskilled and semi-skilled labour force. Over the years, the Indian Government has implemented several measures and made sizeable investments in transportation infrastructure, especially roads and railway to improve logistics costs, reduce transit time and improve connectivity. The two ministries, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) and the Ministry of Railways, account for the lion’s share of the overall capital outlay.

Urban infrastructure was another key focus area for the Government in the budget, driven by the country’s increasing urbanisation. As per a World Bank study, about one-third of India’s population lives in urban areas, with this share expected to

exceed 40 percent by 2036. Consequently, to address the needs of the changing urban landscape, significant investments are required in housing, sanitation and public transportation (metro connectivity). The capital outlay for the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs has been hiked by a healthy 18.8 per cent year on year to Rs 376 billion in the FY 2026 BE. With an aim to modernize cities, the government will set up the Urban Challenge Fund of Rs 1 trillion to implement proposals for “Cities as Growth Hubs", “Creative Redevelopment of Cities” and “Waterand Sanitation", as announced in the July 2024 budget. This fund will finance up to 25 per cent of the cost of bankable projects, with a stipulation that at least 50 per cent of the cost is funded by bonds, bank loans and PPPs. An allocation of Rs 100 billion is proposed for FY 2026. This will encourage private participation while providing long-term fundsfor the sustainable development of cities.

Nonetheless, the healthy capital expenditure, focus on transportation and urban development, and enhanced regional connectivity under the UDAN scheme are expected to support the country’s economic growth and development. The key factors to watch will be the successful implementation of these projects in terms of achieving the desired outcomes and ensuring sustainable economic growth in the coming years.

Financial Performance:

The financial performance of the Company for the year 2024-25 is described in the Directors' Report under the head Financial Result.

Outlook:

After coming out of the CIRP Process during FY 23-24, it is working to build its organisation as well as re-establishing its relationship with clients. The past track record and its current capabalities, is expected to help the Company to build its business and achieve appreciable financial outcome in the medium term.

Company is receiving lot of enquiries for executing complicated projects and we are in the process of evaluating the same. After successful completion of evaluation and if found viable these projects will be taken up during the year. Anticipating these growth opportunities in diverse fields in various geographical locations a separate ERP system is initiated and the same is in advanced stage of closure and is likely to be functional during second quarter of FY 25-26. Regarding non fund-based facility, management is negotiating with few banksand are in advanced stage of closure.

6. OPPORTUNITIES

India’s high growth imperative in 2023 and beyond will significantly be driven by major strides in key sectors with infrastructure development beinga criticalforceaiding the progress.

Infrastructure is a key enabler in helping India become a US$26 trillion economy. Investments in building and upgrading physical infrastructure, especially in synergy with the ease of doing business initiatives, remain pivotal to increase efficiency and costs. Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi also recently reiterated that infrastructure is a crucial pillar to ensure good governance across sectors.

The government’s focus on building infrastructure of the future has been evident given the slew of initiatives launched recently. The US$ 1.3 trillion national master plan for infrastructure, Gati Shakti, has been a forerunner to bring about systemic and effective reforms in the sector, and hasalready shown a significant headway.

Infrastructure support to the nation’s manufacturers also remains one of the top agendas as it will significantly transform goods and exports movement makingfreight delivery effective and economical.

The "Smart Cities Mission" and "Housing forAH" programmes have benefited from these initiatives. Saudi Arabia seeks to spend up to US$ 100 billion in India in energy, petrochemicals, refinery, infrastructure, agriculture, minerals, and mining.

The infrastructure sector is a key driver of the Indian economy. The sector is highly responsible for propelling India’s overall development and enjoys intense focus from the Government for initiating policies that would ensure the time-bound creation of world-class infrastructure in the country. The infrastructure sector includes power, bridges, dams, roads, and urban infrastructure development. In other words, the infrastructure sector acts as a catalyst for India’s economic growth as it drives the growth of the allied sectors like townships, housing, built-up infrastructure, and construction development projects.

To meet India’s aim of reaching a US$ 5 trillion economy by 2025, infrastructure development is the need of the hour. The Government has launched the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) combined with other initiatives such as‘Make in India’and the Production-Linked Incentives (PLI) scheme to augment the growth of the infrastructure sector. Historically, more than 80% of the country's infrastructure spending has gone toward funding for transportation, electricity, and water, and irrigation.

While these sectors still remain the key focus, the Government has also started to focus on other sectors as India's environment and demographics are evolving. There is a compelling need for enhanced and improved delivery across the whole infrastructure spectrum, from housing provision to water and sanitation services to digital and transportation demands, which will assure economicgrowth, increase quality of life, and boost sectoral competitiveness.

In December 2022, AAI and other Airport Developers have targeted capital outlay of approximately Rs. 98,000 crore (US$ 11.8 billion) in airport sector in the next five years for expansion and modification of existing terminals, new terminals and strengthening of runways, among other activities. India currently has the fifth-largest metro network in the world and will soon overtake advanced economies such as Japan and South Korea to become the third-largest network. Metro rail network reached 810 kms and is operational in 20 cities.

In the last 10 years, 697 km have been added to Metro Rail Network across the country. In 2024, about 945 km of metro rail lines are operational in 21 cities and 919 km is under construction in 26 different cities.

At almost 20 kms, Mumbai monorail is the third largest route in the world after China with 98 kms and Japan with 28 kms.

FDI in construction development (townships, housing, built-up infrastructure and construction development projects) and construction (infrastructure) activity sectors stood at US$ 26.64 billion and US$ 34.58 billion, respectively, between April 2000-June 2024.

Indian logistics market is estimated to touch US$ 320 billion by 2025. The overall infrastructure capex is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 11.4% over 2021-26 driven by spending on water supply, transport, and urban infrastructure. Investment in infrastructure contributed around 5% of the GDP in the tenth five-year plan as against 9% in the eleventh five-year plan. Further, US$ 1 trillion investment in infrastructure was proposed by the India’s planning commission during the 12th five-year plan, with 40%of the funds coming from the private sector.

7. THREAT PERCEPTION Challenges:

• Despite the prospects, the sector continues to face challenges from land acquisition issues, adverse political and structural changes, shortage of talent, design and constructability issues, and rising material and labour costs. However, the land acquisition and environment related issues are being addressed on warfooting basis to ease the constraints.

• Policy bottlenecks, slow clearance of projects and rising inflation have dampened private sector sentiments and have stifled investments in Capital expenditure. A high level committee has been constituted for speedy clearance of stalled projectsand monitoring the implementation.

• Working capital cycle has been elongated mainly due to stretched receivables, which has affected the cash flow position of the companies in the sector. Many of the companies have been forced to draw their full limits with the Banking system or restructure the facilities.

• Lengthy dispute resolution mechanism in the sector is yet another major factor affecting the cash flows of the construction companies

• This coupled with rising interest rates have led to a drop in the PAT margin and deterioration of debt coverage ratios of construction companies.

• Shortage of labour also has become a threat as the industry depends majorly on labourfor its sustainability.

8. RISK PERCEPTION

Needless to mention, with huge money, there comes the involvement of big risks. Construction is a high-risk business. Mitigation of risks is the all en-compassing requirement. Broadly speaking, construction projects face the following type of risks:-

• Business Risk • Market Risk

• Financial Risk • Legal Risk

• Commodity Risk • Political Risk

• Exchange Rate Risk.
