Changes in regulatory norms like RERA and GST and tightening of liquidity in the market were two major challenges we faced. We had a proactive approach in our ERP upgradation project with the latest technology, which enabled us to face dynamic changes in real time. We worked closely with clients and vendors by aligning ourselves to these changes. Financial discipline and cost-optimisation efforts across all levels helped us maintain profitability and sustained growth during the year.

In FY18-19, we were able to win more orders in the water sector. Our repeat orders from existing clients, coupled with execution excellence and digital initiatives, provided us the required growth in both the topline and bottomline.

Given the tight liquidity in the prevailing market, we have taken a conscious call to lay emphasis upon financial due diligence and closure before we decide to participate in a bid for any project. Our philosophy has always been on scalability and business sustainability by engaging various stakeholders, performing to the best of our ability and creating value.

During the past two to three years, JMC has grown at a healthy pace of 20+ percent. Considering the Government’s push on infrastructure, we are looking at a sizeable pie of projects in roads, flyovers, expressways, railways, urban infra and water this year. Given our successful project implementation in the global arena, we are also targeting to increase the share of our international business in new emerging markets.
