CURRENT TREND AND FUTURE PROSPECTS:

As per the Report on the World Economic outlook by the International Monetary Fund, the Global economic activity continues to firm up and the Global output is estimated for 2018 and 2019 at 3.9 percent. The revision reflects increased global growth momentum and the expected impact of the recently approved U.S. tax policy changes.

The U.S. tax policy changes are expected to stimulate activity, with the short-term impact in the United States mostly driven by the investment response to the corporate income tax cuts. The effect on U.S. growth is estimated to be positive through 2020. The effects of the package on output in the United States and its trading partners contribute about half of the cumulative revision to global growth over 2018-19.

Further Market research analysts predict that the flexible intermediate bulk container (FIBC) market will grow steadily during the next four years and the constantly increasing demand from diverse sectors including food and horticulture due to the increase in production and trade of horticulture products and in the chemical and fertilizer sectors.

Since the company's products i.e., FIBC bags are mostly exported to U.S and Europe markets, the indications in the global growth forecast will strengthen the company's growth as well. Sustained growth will certainly result in a better profitability in the near future.

There was a remarkable increase in the production of FIBC bags during the financial year ended 31.03.2018 from 72,39,476 Kgs to 90,68,342 Kgs and the sales had increased from 74,76,099 Kgs., to 91,32,972 Kgs an increase of 22.16%.

The prospects for the current year is promising and your directors are hopeful of achieving better results barring any unforeseen circumstances.
