Skyline Millars Ltd Share Price Management Discussions

The operations at Skyline Millars Ltd (SML) continue to be severely impacted as the organisation has not yet received clearances for the stalled project at Ghatkopar. The matter is in the Honble Supreme Court and its order is awaited.

Our project at Ghatkopar is key to the future of SML. We continue to remain hopeful that a favourable decision shall come in the near future.

As COVID restrictions eased, the realty market has shown improvement across all the segments. SML is carefully evaluating its impact. We have filed for clearances for Phase 2 construction of our project at Karjat. Final order for approval from

RERA is expected soon.

SML has decided to divest its land at Wada. We shall finalise once we receive favourable response from prospective buyers.

Operations at Skyline Millars

The revenue from sales and other income for the year under question was Rs. 58.28 lacs against Rs. 207.09 lacs in the previous year. The loss from ongoing operations was Rs. (160.93) lacs as against a Profit of Rs. 82.60 lacs in the last year.

Skyline Millars has sold approximately 3606.14 sqm of office space at Ghatkopar out of a total of 6839.98 sqm.

In the last financial year the Company has disposed off the Umreth Division and the focus would be on selling remaining flats at Karjat. Also, all efforts would be made to sell the land at Wada and seek regulatory approvals for the pending project at Ghatkopar.

Outlook opportunity and threats

With the revival of the realty market, the future prospects for real estate industry remain positive. There is growing buyer interest across all segments of the market. SML is awaiting approvals for the Ghatkopar project which shall bring significantly enhanced revenue and profits.

However, buyer sentiment has been impacted due to higher interest rates. Another area of concern is the speed of approvals by the regulatory authorities. As we have mentioned before that the real estate industry remains the highest employment generator in the country. Self owned house property is the biggest dream of a family and all actions must be geared to facilitate the developers to meet this aspiration. The same is also for commercial properties. We expect that in the coming years there will be greater focus on speedy clearances of proposals.

Risks and concerns

The Company has built in procedures and practices to effectively handle and mitigate the adverse effect of business risks. A risk management policy is in place and procedures are laid down to handle risks while carrying out the business and operations of the Company to the best advantage of all stakeholders, so as to ensure continuity of business and improve shareholder value. However, it is practically not possible to thwart all the risks and the Company has to absorb the impact of some of the risks in either the form of additional cost or losses for the same.

Internal Control Systems and their Adequacy

SML has in place proper and adequate system of internal controls. All assets of the Company are adequately safe guarded and protected against loss or unauthorized use or disposal. It is ensured that all commercial transactions are duly authorized, recorded and reported correctly. The internal control systems are robust and are supplemented by extensive internal audits and periodic review by the management. The system is designed to adequately ensure that financial and other records are reliable for presenting financial informationand other data including maintenance of fixed assets. The audit committee reviews observations and recommendations contained in the Internal Audit Reports during its periodic meetings wherein the internal auditors also participate during the discussion.

Discussion on Financial Performance including segment-wise business performance

The financial performance including segment-wise business performance of the Company has been detailed in the

Directors Report and the Financial statement for the year ended 31st March, 2023.

Material Development in Human Resources /Industrial relations

The organizational structure at SML is continuously evolving so as to effectively meet the business challenges. There is ever a constant effort to follow good human resource practices. The Company strives to create a working environment which is motivating and challenging to all employees so that they can realize their full potential.
