One major challenge faced in FY2018-19: The company clocked 36-per-cent YoY growth in our total income and 30 per cent in PAT, despite a challenging year for the construction industry. To ensure timely completion of projects, JKIL owns a large fleet of plants and equipment required for construction. We have been able to maintain margins better than the industry average mainly owing to our large equipment bank, minimal subcontracting, backward integration and cluster approach for maximising equipment utilisation. Over the year, we have made a steady investment in people, equipment, technology and systems, and in strengthening business sustainability.
One decision you consider the biggest contributor to the company’s growth in FY2018-19: The company recorded its highest ever turnover in FY2018-19. Our approach towards timely completion of ongoing projects and building a robust and healthy order book helped us achieve this. We have successfully completed complex structures with innovative techniques.
We kept our focus on acquiring challenging projects that would test our capabilities and competence.
Plans for FY2019-20: A healthy order book in excess of Rs.100 billion gives the company visibility for the next couple of years. We have expanded our operations in major states like Maharashtra, Delhi, Gujarat, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. We endeavour to broaden our base and resence in a phased manner to the entire nation.
