FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Draft Red Herring Prospectus contains certain forward looking statements. All statements regarding our expected
financial condition and results of operations, business, plans and prospects are forward-looking statements. These forward-
looking statements include statements with respect to our business strategy, our revenue and profitability, our projects and
other matters discussed in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus regarding matters that are not historical facts. These forward
looking statements can generally be identified by words or phrases such as will, aim, will likely result, believe,
expect, will continue, anticipate, estimate, intend, plan, contemplate, seek to, future, objective,
goal, project, should, will pursue and similar expressions or variations of such expressions. Similarly, statements
that describe our objectives, strategies, plans or goals are also forward looking statements. All forward looking statements
are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that could cause our actual results to differ materially from
those contemplated by the relevant forward looking statement. Similarly, statements that describe our strategies, objectives,
plans or goals are also forward-looking statements.
Further, the actual results may differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements due to risks or
uncertainties associated with our expectations with respect to, but not limited to, regulatory changes pertaining to the
industries in India in which we have our businesses and our ability to respond to them, our ability to successfully implement
our strategy, our growth and expansion, technological changes, our exposure to market risks, general economic and political
conditions in India and international markets which have an impact on our business activities or investments, the monetary
and fiscal policies of India, inflation, deflation, unanticipated turbulence in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity
prices or other rates or prices, the performance of the financial markets in India and globally, changes in domestic laws,
regulations and taxes, changes in competition in our industry, and incidence of any natural calamities and/or acts of
violence. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, among others:
dependence on the MoR, for a significant portion of our business;
competitive pressures from the existing competitors and new entrants in both public and private sector;
varying project related costs and revenue estimates due to long execution period of certain contracts;
influence of GoI on our actions;
quality of work performed by our agencies, suppliers, contractors and sub contractors;
dependence on the expertise of our Key Managerial Personnel, Senior Management and our skilled workforce;
the refusal of suppliers, contractors and sub-contractors to maintain favourable payment conditions and / or performance defaults by suppliers, contractors, sub-contractors or consortium partners;
any delay in the initiation of the projects and / or postponement/putting on hold of previously awarded contracts; and
unanticipated technical problems with equipment or incompatibility of such equipment with existing infrastructure.
For a further discussion of factors that could cause our actual results to differ, refer to the chapters titled Risk Factors,
Our Business and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation on pages

INTERNAL RISK FACTORS
Risk relating to Our Business and Our Industry
1. We depend on the Ministry of Railways, GoI (MoR), central/state governments and central/state PSUs for a significant portion of contracts on our order book which are awarded on a nomination basis. There is no assurance
that future contracts will be awarded to us on nomination basis by these clients. This may result in an adverse
effect on our business growth, financial condition and results of operations.
As of November 30, 2017, our order book from MoR, central/state governments and central/state PSUs was
36,587.73 million or 76.09% of our total order book. Some of these contracts are awarded to us on nomination basis.
There is no assurance that we will be selected by these clients for future contracts on nomination basis. In other
sectors, our major clients for highways, airports, urban infrastructure, ports, institutional buildings etc. are
central/state governments and their PSUs. In recent times we have also ventured into turnkey construction projects
mainly from MoR.
The MoR has distributed the jurisdiction of work between our Company and IRCON International Limited (a peer
group PSU under the MoR) (IRCON) in accordance with our respective core competencies. In the long term
interest of both the PSUs, IRCON is not permitted to make any bid for export of rolling stock and components
manufactured by the Indian Railways to countries other than Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. We are permitted to
participate in EPC or Built Operate and Transfer contracts, other than railway contracts, where there is no conflict of
interest with any other PSU under the MoR and to carry out all consultancy, operations and management, conduct
survey, installation and commissioning of all types of rolling stock, feasibility studies, DPR, design, detailed
engineering, tender evaluation, inspection and training. Furthermore, we are permitted to bid for railway rehabilitation
projects in Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand subject to a monetary limit set by the Indian Railways. There can be no
assurance that such division of territory by the MoR will not be withdrawn or altered. As per the Presidential directive
dated May 26, 2008 wherein such division of jurisdiction was laid down by the MoR also states that, if for any reason,
our Company or IRCON is not interested in participating in a particular bid/tender (wherein conflict of interest is
-
19
involved), which falls in its domain, then the other PSU may participate in that bid /tender subject to the condition
that the right of first refusal for each case will be with the PSU in whose domain that particular work falls.
There is no assurance that we will continue to be the nominated agency of Indian Railways or the central/state
governments and their PSUs for execution of certain projects and that future contracts will be awarded to us on
nomination basis by these clients. This may result in an adverse effect on our business growth, financial condition
and results of operations.
2. We depend on the MoR for a significant portion of our business including equipment, technical staff etc. Any changes in the government policies or decisions by the MoR may result in an adverse effect on our business growth,
financial condition and results of operations.
We depend largely on the MoR for our transport infrastructure consultancy projects related to the railways sector.
Our reliance on the MoR also encompasses the hiring of skilled professionals who are appointed on deputation basis
from the MoR and some of whom are later absorbed into senior management positions. We also hire staff for aftersales
service and service staff on long and short term deputation from MoR. As on November 30, 2017, our Company had
161 employees on deputation from Indian Railways. We also depend on the MoR inter alia for supply of materials,
technical support staff and manufacturing facilities.
Our locomotives and rolling stock, and its components and sub-systems for both exports and domestic projects, are
not manufactured by us. The locomotives and rolling stock are manufactured by Indian Railways production facilities,
and a large number of components, sub systems are procured from their suppliers, contractors and sub-contractors.
We may therefore be unable to timely supply or service the procurement contracts awarded by our clients due to risks
associated with our reliance on Indian Railways for manufacturing facilities, technical and support staff, and
materials. This may result in an adverse effect on our business growth, financial condition and results of operations.
We have been approached by Indian Railway Stations Development Corporation Limited to contribute upto 2,500
million by buying out upto 25% of its equity share capital. This proposal however, is in its preliminary phase and yet
to be proposed for risk assessment and investment decision by the Company. In the event, the Company decides to
go ahead with the investments and these investments do not yield the expected returns, it may result in an adverse
effect on our business growth, financial condition and results of operations.
3. Our current order book may not necessarily translate into future income in its entirety or could be delayed. Some of our current orders may be modified, cancelled, delayed, put on hold or not fully paid for by our clients, which
could adversely affect our business reputation, which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.
As of November 30, 2017, our order book was 48,087.25 million. As majority of our projects are executed over a
period of up to three years, at any given time we have an order book, which we define as the total contract value (in
accordance with the terms of the contract) of all existing contracts as of such date, minus any revenue already
recognised by us in relation to such existing contracts up to and including such date. We use the completion of
contracted work to recognise revenue for long-term contracts, which constitute the substantial majority of our
contracts and therefore our order book is dependent on the progress of the project. The growth of our order book is a
cumulative indication of the revenues that we expect to recognise in future periods in relation to the contracts.
For some of the contracts in our order book, our clients are obliged to perform or take certain actions, such as securing
required consents from the GoI, providing land and/or fixed assets, securing authorisations or permits from the MoR,
making advance payments or opening of letters of credit or obtaining adequate financing on reasonable terms and
approving suppliers, contractors and sub-contractors etc. If a client does not perform these and other actions in a
timely manner or at all, our projects could be delayed, put on hold, modified or cancelled and as a result, the income
anticipated in our order book may not be realised and our results of operations could be adversely affected.
Furthermore, the profitability of a contract in our order book and our cash flow may be affected by the following
amongst others:
withholding of payments by clients or mismatch between our internal cost milestones and the payment milestones under our contracts;
the refusal of suppliers, contractors and sub-contractors to maintain favourable payment conditions and / or performance defaults by suppliers, contractors, sub-contractors or consortium partners;
-

any delay in the initiation of the projects and / or postponement/putting on hold of previously awarded contracts;
unanticipated technical problems with equipment or incompatibility of such equipment with existing infrastructure;
difficulties in obtaining required governmental permits;
unantic
