CHAIRMAN`S LETTER

Dear Shareholders,
I take pleasure in presenting the 24th Annual Report of the Company.

inflation had an adverse impact on profits, but I am glad to report that your Company has

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT:
Housing is one of the basic requirements for human survival. For a shelter less person,
possession of a house brings about a profound social change in his existence, endowing him
with an identity, thus integrating him with his immediate social milieu.
The typical demographic setting of India particularly gets highlighted when we look
into the trend over the years. A steep rise in population is a major reason for the
increase in demand of residential units, affordable homes and basic infrastructural
facilities. India is the second most populous country in the world and at this point the
foremost interest is developing the infrastructural facilities of lodging the primary need
of housing for the population. Most of the economist across the world opines that a sharp
increase in the real estate and property prices in India in the coming years. Our
consistent efforts therefore have been to make first hand insight into the pressing
problems of housing development.
The company has taken up project for "Affordable Housing under PPP model" with
Govt. of Rajasthan at Jhunjhunu (Rajasthan) for construction of 1500 Flats on 52% Land for
EWS/LIG/ MIG beneficiaries to be allotted by Govt. directly. The company will construct
same no. of Flats on balance land 48% to be marketed by company. The total built up area
will be are 14 lac Sq. Ft to be completed in 3 years. The Govt. of Rajasthan has already
invited application from 2500 beneficiary in September 2011. The project was delayed by
Govt. due to some problems by Govt.
Now application for land use convection is in process & likely to completed by Mid
October 2012 & construction will commence by mid January 2013.
Installation of Slab/Block Manufacturing
