II. Industry Structure and Development:

Global Economic Scenario: The latest World Economic Outlook reports a
slowdown in global growth as downside risks intensify. While policy shifts unfold
and uncertainties reach new highs, policies need to be calibrated to rebalance
growth-inflation trade-offs, rebuild buffers, and reinvigorate medium-term
growth, thereby reducing both internal and external imbalances. Globally,
year 2024 has been an eventful year. The year witnessed unprecedented
electoral activity on the political front, with more than half of the global
population voting in major elections across countries. Meanwhile, adverse
developments like the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the Israel-Hamas conflict
increased regional instability. These events impacted energy and food security,
leading to higher prices and rising inflation. Cyberattacks also became more
frequent and severe, with growing human and financial consequences due to
the increasing digitization of critical infrastructure. Geopolitical tensions have
reshaped global trade. Geopolitical risks and policy uncertainty, especially
around trade policies, have also contributed to increased volatility in global
financial markets.

Global Air Compressors market size was valued at USD 25.46 billion in year 2023
and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%
from year 2024 to 2030. Stringent environmental regulations and a growing
emphasis on sustainability have led industries to adopt more environmentally
friendly air compressors. Various industries in the Asia Pacific countries, such
as manufacturing, oil & gas, food & beverage, energy & medical, and home
appliances have been enjoying significant growth through rising investments
from public and private entities. China and India remain the most promising
countries for upcoming sales and demand of air compressors owing to the
presence of manufacturing hubs. (source: Fortune Business Insights)

India Economic Scenario: As per the first advance estimates released by the
National Statistical Office, Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation
(MoSPI), the real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth for financial year
2024-25 is estimated to be 6.4 per cent. From the angle of aggregate demand
in the economy, private final consumption expenditure at constant prices is
estimated to grow by 7.3 per cent, driven by a rebound in rural demand.

India's capital goods sector is expected to post modest profit growth during
the fourth quarter of financial year 2024-25, supported by a rebound in order
inflows from the defence and transmission segments. This comes even as a
broader revival in public and private sector ordering remains elusive.

The industrial sector grew by 6 per cent in first half of financial year 2024¬
25. Q1 2024-25 saw a strong growth of 8.3 per cent, but growth moderated
in Q2 2024-25 due to three key factors first, manufacturing exports slowed
significantly due to weak demand from destination countries, and aggressive
trade and industrial policies in major trading nations; second, the above average
monsoon had mixed effects - while it replenished reservoirs and supported
agriculture, it also disrupted sectors like mining, construction, and, to some
extent, manufacturing; third, the variation in the timing of festivities between
September and October in the previous and current years led to a modest
growth slowdown in Q2 2024-25.

The GDP growth accelerated to 7.4% in Q4 2024-25, and full year growth at
6.4% resulting in Indian economy retaining its "fastest growing" economy tag.

The foreign direct investment (FDI) in India reached USD 1.03 trillion from April
2000 to September 2024, with over 69% of inflows occurring since year 2014.
This was complemented by exports totalling USD 778 billion, bolstering India's
global trade presence.

The financial year 2024-25 saw major policy reforms, including the liberalization
of FDI limits across certain sectors, tax incentives, and improvements in the
ease of doing business. These factors have contributed to sustained investor
confidence, keeping India as an attractive destination for global capital.

India is keen to expand its manufacturing sector, with a focus on diversifying
into newer lines of production, advancing the industrial capacity of traditional
sectors like automobiles, and establishing a globally competitive domestic
supply chain ecosystem

Your Company's products are primarily sold to industries in the automotive,
metals, pharmaceutical and textile sectors and these sectors have registered
strong growth in the financial year under review.

III. Segment-wise operational performance: Air Solutions is the only segment in
your Company's operations. The gross revenue from operations of Air Solutions
business for the year under review was Rs. 133,629 lakhs as against Rs. 119,814
lakhs in the previous financial year, a growth of over 11.5 %. Your Company
continues to focus on local innovation and creating markets "In India; For India;
By India".

The profit before tax is Rs. 36,034 lakhs in the year under review as against
Rs. 29,804 lakhs in the previous financial year, a significant jump of over 20.90%.

IV. Outlook: India is poised to lead the global economy once again, with the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) projecting it to remain the fastest growing
major economy over the next two years. According to the April 2025 edition
of the IMF's World Economic Outlook, India's economy is expected to grow by
6.2% in calendar year 2025 and 6.3% in calendar year 2026, maintaining a solid
lead over global and regional peers. Several factors contribute to this optimistic
outlook, including strong demand, government efforts to boost consumer
spending, and robust investment growth.

Looking ahead, India's economic prospects for financial year 2025-26 are
balanced. Headwinds to growth include elevated geopolitical and trade
uncertainties and possible commodity price shocks. Domestically, the
translation of order books of private capital goods sector into sustained
investment pick-up, improvements in consumer confidence, and corporate
wage pick-up will be key to promoting growth. Rural demand backed by a
rebound in agricultural production, an anticipated easing of food inflation
and a stable macro-economic environment provide an upside to near-term
growth. Overall, India will need to improve its global competitiveness through
grassroots-level structural reforms and deregulation to reinforce its medium-
term growth potential.

According to IMF estimates, India will overtake Japan by the end of financial
year 2025-26 to claim the tag of the 4th largest economy after the US, China
and Germany.

V. Risk and Concerns: The air compressor market is heavily reliant on sectors like
manufacturing, automotive, oil & gas, food & beverage, and construction. A
slowdown in these sectors due to economic cycles, policy changes, or global
disruptions can significantly impact demand. Also import dependence and
supply chain disruptions remain a concern since many critical components,
especially for high-end compressors, are still imported, making the industry
vulnerable to currency fluctuations, geopolitical tensions, shipping delays and
cost surges.

The market is witnessing increased competition from both domestic and
international players. Low-cost imports, especially from China and Southeast
Asia, are putting pressure on margins and affecting the competitiveness
of Indian manufacturers. Also, the availability of spurious or substandard
compressors and parts in the market undermines brand trust and poses safety
risks to end-users.

Prices of raw materials like steel, aluminum, and copper remain volatile,
impacting production costs and profitability. Many customers, especially
MSMEs, rely on credit purchases. Delayed payments or defaults strain the
working capital. The primary operating risks which could impact the Company
relates to slow-down in the automotive, metals, pharmaceutical and textile
sectors, exposure to seasonality for some of its businesses, competition
from Indian and global players, volatile exchange rates, credit risks, import
dependence, procurement concentration risks, volatile commodity prices
risks, changes in tax and other legislations as well as risks arising out of higher
input costs. The Company constantly monitors the challenges from amongst
the eco-system comprising competition, industry, product life cycle, raw
materials cost and takes steps to maintain and enhance existing competence.
The primary threat over and above competitors created by COVID 19 was the
demand supply gap, inflationary pressure and supply chain disruption which
seems to be easing off though geopolitical volatile conditions still pose a
threat. Availability of spurious parts and components at cheap prices continue
to disrupt fair competition. We see an increase in activity of using imports of
substandard complete packages which is an added threat. Fluctuating foreign
currency rates will have impact on imports.

VI. Opportunities and Threats: Expansion in sectors like manufacturing,
automotive, pharmaceuticals, food & beverage, and construction is driving
demand for compressed air systems. Government initiatives like "Make in India"
and PLI schemes are boosting industrial output and infrastructure development.

Rising energy costs and sustainability goals are pushing demand for energy-
efficient, oil-free, and variable speed drive (VSD) compressors. loT-enabled
smart compressors are gaining traction for their ability to enable predictive
maintenance and real-time monitoring. Stricter environmental norms are
encouraging industries to upgrade to low-emission and oil-free compressors,
especially in sensitive sectors like pharma and food processing. India is emerging
as a manufacturing hub for industrial equipment, including compressors, with
potential to export to Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. The growing
installed base of compressors is creating a large aftermarket opportunity in
maintenance, spare parts, and retrofitting.

However, the Influx of cheap, low-quality imports and spurious spare parts
from countries like China is undercutting domestic manufacturers and affecting
brand trust.

Skilled manpower shortage, lack of trained technicians for installation,
maintenance, and troubleshooting is a bottleneck, especially in Tier 2 and Tier
3 cities.

VII. Discussion on financial performance with respect to operational performance:
Analyzing operational and financial performance is essentially about converting
management data that the business teams has collected into useful information.
The same is then used to make management decisions and guide future
actions. As such it is important to regularly review the combined technical and
operational/financial performance.

The basic process for analyzing operational and financial performance is
more standardized than the process for analyzing technical performance and
involves some standardized aspects. It comprises an analysis of data resulting
from implementation of operational plan. Analysis of operational and financial
performance is a continuous process, and it is important to find ways to fit this
analysis into the overall organizational plan. The board is well aware and has a
clear idea about where budget variances are coming from at frequent intervals
of time. The board takes timeline corrective steps which may be tactical or
strategic ones to match the outcome of the operational performance with the
financial performance.

The technical and project managers are well informed about the finical impact
of their performance. This helps them to operate efficiently and effectively
and to understand the impact of their actions on the financial results of the
organization as a whole.
