- FLAT PRICE GROWTH displayed by past 5 years would be concern. This was mainly due to the Post IPO High Pricing & Revenue Catchup took time.
- MANPOWER RISK Poaching of Experienced Skilled Laborers is a Threat to the Current Infrastructure Players. Company is working with Contractual Laws & Laborer Suppliers to mitigate this risk
- COVID TROUBLES are not ending as we foreseen before. As per Bill Gates & Top Economic Forecasts the Economy would take Past 2022 to restore to the full peak levels of 2019. This would cause slowdown in Infrastructure Growth & Spending there by causing Sluggishness in Revenue & Profits.
- COMPETITOR PRESENCE we have other competitors like Likhitha Infrastrudcture, J Kumar Infraprojects in the same line of business with H.G Infrastructure. However we see this as a Gated Entry area where there is only few Top Level players.
- TECHNOLOGY RISK Capital Intensive Upgrade of Technology & Equipment periodically is carving lot of Profits for the Company while ensuring the Apt ROI through Financial Excellence.
- GOVERNMENT SPENDING DEPENDENCY is a major concern for the company. We hope the next 5 years would be good for Indian Infrastructure are with handful of players gaining the core infrastructure projects.
