Everest Industries expects business of its pre-engineered buildings (PEBs) to grow 60 per cent during FY11 on the back of an order book worth Rs 100 crore for first half of this year. The two-year-old business is the fastest growing vertical for the company. Everest expects sales to reach Rs 200 crore in the fiscal, up from Rs 125 crore in 2009-10.
Around 80 per cent of its revenues are generated from the primary cement roofing and cement boards businesses which the company expects to grow by 33 per cent this year. The company is aiming at a turnover of Rs 1,000 crore for the fiscal from Rs 654 crore registered during FY10.
PEBs take just three months to erect, versus an average of nine months that conventional building take to build. The new orders for warehouses, airports and new factories are worth 15,000 tonnes and equal six months of production. Customers for these new orders include Ericsson, which is setting up a new plant, Shree Shubham logistics and Jain Irrigation.
The company is planning to make investments in this business by setting up two plants in the next few years at Rs 60 crore each. Currently, it has only one plant for PEBs at Bhagwanpur, Uttarakhand.crackcrackCompany Name | CMP |
