The company expects its new Coimbatore factory to generate a turnover of Rs 150 crore per annum while the Kashipur plant is capable of raking in Rs 140 crore in value. However no significant revenue can be expected from these two plant in current fiscal (ending March 2009), considering only one and half month operation in Coimbatore, and also time required to stabilize operations.  The company that has clocked a sales growth of 23% in first half ended Sep 2008 but now expects a revenue growth of 20% for current fiscal.

 

The company’s cables division is carrying a high cost inventory to the tune of two and half month requirement and that is expected to be exhausted by Jan ’09 end allowing the margin to improve in the fourth quarter.   With full benefit of the expansions coming, the company expects a turnover of Rs 450 crore in FY 2010crackcrack
