Now a days there is trend of buying imported machinery, whereas buying make in India product is comparatively better and economic in pricing. Our advice to customers is to buy Indian products only.

What is your strategy to expand business for existing product range?
Looking at market business is not favorable but we are hopeful about coming days and expecting better business prospects. Keeping that in mind, we are focusing more on technology of existing and new products. we are making all our products automated which will give more value for money in production to customer and better services. Our next focus is on providing better quality products in economic pricing. We have launched new product batch plant in our product range. so far our products are semi-automated and now we are making them fully automatic.

Looking at the present scenario what would you advise for procurement of equipment? Buy it or rent it, why do you say so?
At this market condition, one should continue to what extent is possible instead of getting into addition financial burden. If it is required, then I would suggest to buy indigenous products i.e. make in India as that would not be having much financial impact on project cost. Now a day there is trend of buying imported machinery, whereas buying make in India product is comparatively better and economic in pricing. I always advice customers to buying Indian products only.

What kind of expectation you have from industry bodies and policy makers?
We are focusing on Customer servicing, technology of product, indigenous product, cost effective. Currently, whatever challenges an industrialist are facing the policies are favorable in long run. We are getting benefit but it also requires businessman’s participation and contribution to utilize these changes and policies well in their business.

What is the company outlook by 2022?
We are focusing to take company to corporate level. we will make sure that government policies and our efforts and contribution will help us to reach that level. Our focus will be on production (factory) expansion, timely customer servicing, Make in India product, automated technology. we would be focusing more on road construction machineries like asphalt plants, batch plants, machineries.
