Company growth & profitability picking up in last 4-6 quarters and management commentary has been bullish.

IT division is quite small and company doesn’t expect to grow much in this space for time being. They are only servicing their current customers.

Most of their work is for US based clients and of late they have been winning work from US tier 1 companies. They had acquired 2 US steel detailing firms RMM Global & Crossroads detailing in past. They provide consultancy and help in acquiring new projects. Most of the work happens in Indian offices interms of designs, detailing.
Company has started executing projects (sub contracts) in big ticket projects recently like Denver Airport extension work, Amadzon CVG Hub at Kentucky, 75 storied Oceanwide center. Management expect steady growth in this vertical.
As per Annual report 2018/19 - “The Workflow in Structural Steel Division is moderate in the
first few months of the next FY 2019-20. However the Company is adding more new clients to increase the overall sales.”

Revenue by Operations (from annual report):
Given the growth, performance & management quality, its rather surprising that this stock doesn’t have any institutional investors.
Opinion - If it continues to maintain this ROE & ROCE, its just a matter of time.
Risks
- Revenue from geography is not diversified. Domestic revenue are negligible to overseas generated revenue. If there is economy downturn in US or economy issues for OEMs in EU and new projects stalled or delayed may affect them.
- Since most revenue comes from international customers mostly US,the bottom line earnings is greatly influenced by currency fluctuations which could go either way.
