    Your company's total revenue for the period came at Rs. 21.63 lakhs. Over 90% of the revenue came from Equity segment. After
    a muted performance in the previous year, Indian capital markets surged on the backdrop of recovering the economy and strong
    macroeconomic data which benefited the company's financial performance as well. Slightly higher than market forecast the company
    achieve in total revenue of Rs. 36.39 lakhs against 126.27 lakhs in previous year, the same effect on company's EBITDA of Rs. (0.30)
    lakhs against Rs. 7.38 Lakhs in previous year.

    RISK

    The weak global sentiments and fearsome approach of investors has affected your company too in the last fiscal. Strong decline in
    oil prices, slowdown in the Chinese economy and muted global growth prospects weighed on overall investment environment. Indian
    markets also remained volatile during the year despite policy makers continued to remain accommodative with FII favored policies.
    However, looking ahead, we hope investor sentiments to be boosted by on-going reforms leading to steady economic growth, greater
    retail participation coupled with improving global markets outlook.

    Capital market ups and downs have direct impact on the revenues of your company and to minimize these risks your company has
    made considerable investments out of profits earned and these investments are profitable. Further, we refrained ourselves from
    creating physical assets and it was prudently decided by the management to invest in technology, investment opportunities instead
    of creating physical assets at this juncture. This has helped your company to sail through difficult market conditions as our costs
    remained always under check. We have been striking balance between executing both expansion and ambitious innovation agendas
    as well as managing rising costs, which is a key subject of interest for investors.

    TRANSFER TO INVESTOR EDUCATION AND PROTECTION FUND (IEPF)
