24th Annual Report 2010-11

Chairman’s Message

Dear Shareholders,

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the 24th Annual General Meeting of your Company and share with you the

progress your Company has made, despite the global economy has posed several challenges.

While the economic climate throughout the industry has remained challenging during the year gone by, however, the Fiscal

Year 2011 was a year of steady revival and consolidation for us. During the year we saw strong revival of business demand

across the markets, however, in the backdrop of economic recovery, investments were closely evaluated and business

models were realigned by most of our clients.

While, some of the Verticals/Lines of Business and Subsidiary Companies have fared well and high achievers this fiscal,

however, the major setback was on the e-Governance business segment front. As informed in our last Annual Report, due

to the Mandi Board resorting to unilateral and un-lawful termination of the Service Contract and withholding dues to the

Company from April’ 08 onwards aggregating to Rs. 28.77 Crores (out of which Rs. 20.22 Crores pertains to billing raised

on behalf of outsourcing partner), the Company had suffered severely from financially and otherwise. The dispute was

referred to Arbitration and pending for disposal. Further, the other e-governance project viz., Sampark Project in the Union

Territory of Chandigarh has come to a logical conclusion as of Dec 31, 2010.

The Company’s Singapore subsidiary is growing steadily, where revenues grew annually at 39%. The Company had

forayed into Training & Education Services in Singapore, by launching Android Training in partnership with Singapore IT

Federation (SiTF). The Training Program is being endorsed and funded from Infocomm Development Authority (IDA),

Singapore as enhanced Critical Infocomm Technology Resource Program (e-Citrep). So far, the Company had billed

training revenues in excess of SGD $ 450000. Now, the Company is poised to launch Trainings on other Technologies/

Platforms. Using the Android training experience and leveraging the past credentials in Embedded Wireless and Software,

the Company has also bagged few prestigious projects on the Embedded & Android platform.

Looking Ahead

As we step into new fiscal, the crisis of confidence, which we thought was over, has been rekindled with the economic crisis

that the USA and Europe are now facing, which will cast shadow on the strong business demand. While “caution” is on

everyone’s mind, with Companies carrying over the lessons of the past years into the fiscal 2011-12, the expectation is that

it will be more mature Indian IT Industry that will emerge from the existing scenario. Therefore, we see that IT spending on

a rebound and the outlook for the future is robust. We believe that with our diverse portfolio of services, domain expertise

and the increasing value-add to customers, we are best suited to be a strategic partner to our customers. Our offerings are

highly differentiated and leverage deeply, as these capabilities are built over decades.

24th Annual Report 2010-11

8

With the powerful differentiation indicated above and a diverse customer base across geographies, coupled with the

learning’s during the last couple of years, I am sure that your Company will continue to consolidate and grow in the years

to come. This is very evident from orders bagged from various high value customers and new accounts being opened with

various Industry majors during the current fiscal 2011-12. The Company is re-starting several initiatives to embrace growth

by aggressive business strategies and new business models.

Growth Strategy and Way Forward

1. To leverage on the Company’s over 23 years of enviable reputation as a high-end quality IT Educator

2. To increase product offerings across all business segments

3. To pursue various e-Government opportunities, as Central and State Governments putting more emphasis on e-

Governance initiatives.

4. To effectively integrate on-site and off-shore capabilities to deliver seamless, scalable, and cost-effective solutions to

our Customers

5. Pursue alliances with various Companies and Technology Providers, that complement our core competencies

Concluding Note

I am confident that SQL Star, with its excellent customers, committed associates and strong and stable management team

will continue to deliver significant value to all its stakeholders in the years to come and will achieve every milestone in the

journey to success.

I would like to thank all our shareholders, investors, employees, customers, principals and all other stakeholders, who have

always stood by us. With our focussed business strategy, dynamic management team and a pool of professional talent, we

are poised for growth.

I look forward to your continued support in the coming years to take this Company to the next level of growth.

Yours Sincerely,

Sunil Gupta

Co-Chairman & Managing Director

On a Standalone basis, the Company reported total income of Rs 1,778.16 lacs in the FY 2010-11, as compared to

Rs. 2545.59 lacs reported in the previous financial year, registering a decline of 30%. The loss after tax was Rs. 528.27 lacs

in the FY 2010-11, as against Rs. 1828.22 lacs reported in the previous year.

Segment wise Revenues:-

Consolidated Basis Stand-alone Company

2.1. Performance of SQL Star, India – Standalone Company

The main reason for the fall in the revenue of the stand-alone company was due to decline in revenues from the e-

Governance vertical. As informed in our previous Annual Report, during the last fiscal, the Mandi Board had resorted

to unilateral and un-lawful termination of the Service Contract for executing the Mandi Project and further, withheld

dues to the Company from April’ 08 onwards aggregating to Rs. 28.77 Cr (out of which Rs. 20.22 Cr pertains to billing

raised on behalf of outsourcing partner). The Mandi Project was one of the major contributors to the revenues of the

Company and the unilateral and un-lawful termination has severely impacted the Company financially and otherwise.

The matter was referred for Arbitration proceedings. When the arbitration proceedings were in progress, the Mandi

Board withdrew the arbitrator and the new arbitrator is yet to be appointed by the Mandi Board. In the meanwhile, the

company has filed a petition before the Honourable High Court of Madhya Pradesh, Jabalpur Bench seeking to

appoint an arbitrator to complete the proceedings.

Further, the other e-Governance project viz., Sampark Project in the Union Territory of Chandigarh came to a logical

conclusion as of Dec 31, 2010. When the Department of Information Technology, Chandigarh initiated the re-

tendering process, the Company has submitted its bids and stood as sole bidder in the technical review, however,

owing to the CVC guidelines, the Department of Information Technology (“DIT”), Chandigarh has entrusted the

responsibility of running the operations to another Department Agency viz., Society of Promotion of Information

Technology in Chandigarh (“SPIC”) which is part of DIT, Chandigarh, w.e.f Jan 01, 2011. As a result of this change, the

Company had lost the project revenues from 4th quarter of financial year 2010- 11 onwards.

2.2. Performance of Wholly Owned Subsidiaries

During the year under review, the Singapore Company reported an increase of around 39% in its revenues, whereas

the revenues of the USA subsidiary was down by around 65%, mainly due to macroeconomic conditions prevailing

11

24th Annual Report 2010-11

in the USA and also on account of no revenues from the Embedded Wireless and Software business unit, as it has

been shelved by the Company. Due to certain business challenges, there were no major revenues from the Australian

Company.

(a) SQL Star International Inc., USA

During the year under review, SQL Star International Inc., USA, has generated Rs. 607.55 Lakhs in revenue and

reported Loss before Interest, Depreciation and Tax of Rs (127.36) Lakhs, with loss after Tax of Rs. 126.33

Lakhs.

(b) International SQL Star Pte. Ltd., Singapore

During the year under review, International SQL Star Pte Ltd., Singapore, has generated Rs. 1518.63 Lakhs in

revenue and reported Profit before Interest, Depreciation and Tax of Rs. 29.85 Lakhs, with Profit after Tax of

Rs. 6.49 Lakhs.

(c) SQL Star International Pty Ltd., Australia

During the year under review, SQL Star International Pty Ltd., Australia, has generated Rs. 41.27 Lakhs in

revenue and reported Loss before Interest, Depreciation and Tax of Rs. (3.55) Lakhs, with loss after Tax of Rs.

5.49 Lakhs.

3. DIVIDEND

Due to the loss incurred during the year, the Board of Directors of your Company does not recommend any dividend

5. EXPLANATIONS TO QUALIFICATIONS IN AUDITOR’S REPORT

Qualification in

Clause No. of the

Auditors’ ReportDirectors Reply

The Company has borrowed unsecured loans from Promoter Group Companies. Due to cash

liquidity issues, the Company has not paid the interest from March 2008 onwards. The outstanding

interest will be cleared once the cash flow pressure is eased out.

Due to overall fall in revenues and margins, and with the Mandi Board withholding our payments

from April’ 08 onwards, there has been tremendous pressure on the cash flows of the Company. As

a result, there have been delays in the payment of the statutory dues. In order to clear certain amount

of the Statutory dues, the Company borrowed Rs. 1Cr from Mr. Sunil Gupta, the Co-Chairman &

Managing Director of the Company. The Company had cleared the said loan in multiple trenches

and the final trench of the Loan along with interest has been cleared before May’ 11.

As informed earlier, due to the Mandi Board resorting to unilateral and un-lawful termination of the

Service Contract and withholding dues to the Company from April’ 08 onwards aggregating to Rs.

28.77 Crores (out of which Rs. 20.22 Crores pertains to billing raised on behalf of outsourcing

partner), there was tremendous pressure on the working capital of the Company. Further, due to

external market conditions, the revenues from all business units have suffered, which has further

put the pressures on the working capital.Due to these reasons, there were incessant delays in

making the payments of undisputed statutory dues including Provident Fund, Income Tax deducted

from various Services/Payments and Service Tax However, the Company is taking necessary steps

to regularize the remittances of various statutory dues with appropriate authorities.

1. INDUSTRY STRUCTURE, DEVELOPMENT AND OUTLOOK

1.1 Economy & IT Industry

The Global IT Services industry is operating in a rapidly changing economic and business environment. 2010

saw a shift from ‘anxiety’ to ‘cautious optimism’ across the world. The demand outlook for IT has also improved.

After negative growth in last year, the World-wide spending on technology and related products and services is

estimated to have crossed US$ 1.6 trillion in 2010, a growth of 4.0% over 2009, with growth driven by emerging

verticals and emerging geographies in addition to USA.

Trends in global sourcing remained positive and showed a growth rate of 10.4% in 2010 over 2009 and the

global sourcing market size was in the range of US$ 102 to 106 billion in 2010. IT sourcing grew at 10.3% to a

market size of US$ 62 to 64 billion and BPO sourcing grew at 10.6% to a market size of US$ 40 to 42 billion.

1.2 Indian IT Industry

India is widely recognized as the premier destination for offshore Technology Services. According to NASSCOM

strategic review 2011, IT exports from India are estimated to grow by 22.7% in fiscal 2011. There are several key

factors which are contributing to the growth of IT and IT services in India and by Indian companies. Some of

these factors are high quality of delivery, significant cost benefits and abundant skilled resources.

IT services spend is expected to increase from US$ 566 billion in 2009 to US$ 684 billion by 2014 at a CAGR2

of 3.9%. IT outsourcing component is expected to grow from US$ 225 billion in 2009 to US$ 239 billion in

billion in 2014 at a CAGR of 6.6%.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

24th Annual Report 2010-11

3. SEGMENT WISE OVERVIEW

3.1 KNOWLEDGE SERVICES

The Company offers IT Training / Education services to:-

� Students from IT or non-IT background, aspiring to make a career in IT

� Working professionals in IT and non-IT domains, aspiring to upgrade their skills;

� Training programs for Corporate Sector.

Offerings from the Knowledge Services Division can be broken down into the following basic segments i.e.

Individual Training Groups (ITG), Corporate Training Group (CTG).

Learning Services from Individual Training Group

The ITG business segment includes fresh graduates, graduates seeking employment, professionals seeking industry-

recognized certification and even students who are in still at university (who want to have an accelerated start to

their career). Knowledge Services provides the Retail learner a range of learning options to choose from:

� In class training for those who want to learn the basics of IT

� Certification Tracks for those learners who want to equip themselves with industry-recognized IT certification

� Self-paced Learning titles for those learners who would like to be in control of the pace, time and intensity

of their learning schedules. For example, full-time students and busy professionals.

Learning Services from Corporate Training Group:

SQL Star helps corporate justify their investments in Human Capital by means of training their resources. SQL Star

has been in the business of conducting highly customized, High End technology training for companies to meet

specific business requirements; whether to induct new hires in Fresher Induction Programs or to more experienced

project level technology up-skilling and also some advanced level training.

Future Outlook

While, the financial year 2010-11 saw a progression in economic trends from cautious optimism at the beginning

of the year leading into moderate recoveries and expected to achieve rapid growth in many emerging economies

by the year end, some of the positive trends of next fiscal are:-

� Year 2010-11 ended with strong hiring by employers across industries.

Consolidated Basis Standalone Basis

17

24th Annual Report 2010-11

� Strongest hiring intentions since 2005 with Net Employment Outlook at 51% (Source: Manpower

Employment Outlook Survey)

� Fresher IT recruitments expected to cross 200,000 next fiscal year

� Education and skill development remained a top agenda with the Government, with greater private sector

participation

� Corporate sector business confidence improved.

� US markets showed recovery in terms of training spends; Outsourcing activity grew faster in Europe

Spending on supplementary IT education has seen a moderate growth with increased hiring by the IT Companies

but the main driver for IT education will be to meet the skill shortage that the industry faces. While the industry

grows, the no. of employable graduates in technology has not kept pace with the development.

However, based on various industry reports, we strongly believe that the student’s sentiment is likely to improve

as major IT Companies are planning to step-up their hiring in FY’12. The Company is also seeing a growing

pipeline of deals for Training, particularly in the Government sector and would continue its thrust to provide

end-to-end solution set.

Education represents one of the most powerful factors in providing individuals with the ability to improve their

quality of life, increase earning power, and provide the basic foundation for future economic growth.

Our training programs are constantly engineered with inputs from the industry to keep them in sync with the

skills demand, characterized by both ‘relevance’ and ‘completeness’.

Opportunity

The Company sees the tremendous growth opportunity in the IT Education & Training services, based on the

following trends:-

� Indications of large hiring plans across sectors

� Increased government spending

� Slowdown in the number of fresh graduates hired each year has urged large IT companies to look for role/

technology specific training. Focus is on productivity of existing manpower rather than to hire large

numbers and then train them to be deployed.

� Increased Govt. spending on skill up-gradation in PSU’s and in conventional education systems provides

increased opportunities for creating online, e-learning content and providing requisite infrastructure

platforms to support online education

� India’s large pool of educated entry-level job-seekers and the low levels of employability have been

principal factors in driving the growth in the Indian career training market.

� The need for existing skills to improve exponentially will mean the opportunity to increase offerings in

each vertical.

3.2 E-GOVERNANCE SERVICES

E-Governance is a relatively new area in India and India has been home to pioneering innovations in this area.

The innovations have come from applying technology to rising customer expectations in terms of citizen services,

a growing awareness and acceptance, among citizens, bureaucrats and their political masters, of the potential of

technology to allow ‘any time, any where’ access to information, use of local languages, the extending reach of

24th Annual Report 2010-11

18

public networks and new business models of public-private partnerships. Unlike, commercial IT applications,

which are often evaluated in terms of Returns on Investments and Total Cost of Ownership, e-Governance

applications have benefits which are difficult to quantify, at least in short term. These benefits are in terms of

customer service, greater convenience, saving of hours of time in millions of customer transactions, empowerment

of ordinary citizens, enabling Right to Information, reducing corruption, improving profitability of public services,

improving transparency in decision-making, intra-government communication, and so on.

This Business Unit at SQL Star creates customized solutions that address the entire spectrum of the information

technology needs of state governments, central government, and local government bodies facilitating effective

Government-to-Government (G2G), Government to Employee (G2E), and Government to Citizen (G2C)

interaction.

The Mandi Project which was one of the major contributors to the Revenues and Margins of the Company was

unilaterally and un-lawfully terminated by the Mandi Board. This has severely impacted the Company financially

and otherwise. The Company had invoked the Arbitration, which is pending for disposal. The other e-Governance

project viz., Sampark Project in the Union Territory of Chandigarh has come to a logical conclusion as of

December 31, 2010.

Opportunity

SQL Star specializes in operationalization of automation of market yards and management of G2C & B2C utility

bill payment services. The huge thrust and spending on nationwide (Common Services Centers) CSC’s under

National e-Governance Plan (NeGP) that integrates back to back with State Service Delivery Gateway (SSDG),

National Service Delivery Gateway (NSDG) and State Portal requires a lot of innovation & in depth domain

understanding for making it a viable business model under Public Private Partnership (PPP). A lot if thrust is also

going on in automation of various state agricultural marketing boards. SQL Star being an early entrant holds a lot

of edge in terms of domain understanding and successfully executing some award winning projects.

3.3 SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT & SERVICES

3.3.1 Strategic Resourcing Group (“SRG”)

The strategic resourcing group of SQL Star provides consulting services to large scale system integrators,

various government departments and IT/ITeS companies. The group is extremely agile and responds to the

ongoing business requirements by suitably up-scaling and down-scaling the consultant base. This is a time

tested strategy and has been delivering the results for the organisation. In an endeavor towards utilizing

the strength of the organization, the group has discussed and formalized the following Train-Hire-Deploy

approach and methodology for strategically scaling up the business;

The Train-Hire-Deploy methodology has three distinct phases.

� Planning

� Implementation

� Transition

During the planning stage the major activities are training identification & scheduling and marketing of the

program to the right audience. The implementation stage consists of the screening, background verification

and conduction of the training. SQL Star will hire the successful candidates from training batches across

the country and deploy them with various client projects.

19

24th Annual Report 2010-11

The critical success factors identified for the methodology are as follows:

� Marketing the product to right set of available talent

� Quality screening mechanism during talent hunt

� Mature competency building framework

� Mature staff augmentation framework

� Proper alert and monitoring mechanism for updating stakeholders on various monitoring parameters

� Association with the client at suitable intervals during selection, training, hiring and deployment of

consultant

� Continuous review and appraisal of the program

� Retention of consultants through

� Loyalty bonus at the end of a defined employment period

� Employment agreement

� Refresher training

Opportunity

A lot of product development and services MNCs are hunting for ready made talents, who can perform in

their projects. These MNCs doesn’t have the necessary mandate for building training facilities like the local

SI’s. Hence, SQL Star with its Knowledge Services Framework integrated with its Staff Augmentation

Framework can play a major role in partnering with these organizations to scale their competencies.

3.3.2 Technology & Managed Services

In implementing business and application software, enterprises are faced with new challenges - attracting

and retaining skilled work force to maintain and enhance systems in line with business requirements.

SQL Star’s Technology & Managed Services provide end-to-end solutions to address business requirements,

be it application, software infrastructure, or hardware infrastructure. SQL provides outsourced management

of IT services proactively through a combination of offshore and onsite delivery model.

SQL Star has established itself as one of the credible player in Business Intelligence, Microsoft, Share point,

.Net Technologies. SQL Star, Singapore has been recognized as Microsoft’s most preferred Vendor on

“Business Intelligence & Share Point platforms etc. we have gained good traction on the project side and

bagged a few orders; some of them are in the Government space.

Opportunity

As enterprises begin to focus on their core competencies and functions such as product development,

marketing, brand management and customer relationships and seek more cost effective solution to manage

their IT back bone and IT development the trend for out sourcing is fast catching up. This development

means a growing opportunity for technology and managed solutions. SQL Star with its multi dimensional

capabilities in IT sector is well poised to offer end-to-end solutions in this market segment.

4. RISKS AND CONCERNS

As a global enterprise, SQL Star is exposed to wide variety of risks across our entire range of business line/operations.

A comprehensive and integrated risk management framework forms the basis of all the de-risking efforts of the Company.

Formal reporting and control mechanisms ensure timely information availability and facilitate proactive risk management.

These mechanisms are designed to cascade down to the level of the line managers so that risks at the transactional

level are identified and steps are taken towards mitigation in a decentralized manner.

In broadest sense, the Company perceives risks as the danger of not achieving financial, operative and strategies goals

set to be achieved during the year. It has a comprehensive risk management structure in place, which is intended to

enable the Company to recognize and analyze risks early and put an appropriate mitigation plan in place. This system

is implemented as an integral part of SQL Star’s business processes across the Company. It constitutes of multiple

control mechanisms with major and important constituents of the decision making process. This mechanism includes

recording, monitoring and controlling internal enterprise processes and business risks with comprehensive risks

reporting system. Through the said mechanics, SQL Star is intended to maximize the stakeholder’s value by maintaining

a steady balance between risks and concerns.

Your Company too faces several business risks, of which some prominent ones are discussed hereunder alongside the

risk mitigation approach followed by the Company:

4.1 Concentration risks:

Excessive dependence on any single business segment increases risk. The Company continuously makes efforts

to broad base and diversify its revenue streams to prevent undesirable concentration in any one vertical technology

client or geographic area. However, considerable efforts are being made to generate business from new geographies

and clients.

4.2 Financial risks

SQL Star’s activities expose the Company to a variety of financial risks such as market risks, credit risks, change

in regulations of economy in which Company operates etc. All these risks arise in the normal course of business.

The Company is exposed to longer recovery cycles due to its involvement in long duration projects and

Government entities in its customer profile resulting in need to finance higher level of working capital. The

Company is confident to have adequate funding to finance its working capital requirements as well as future

growth needs. The volatility in foreign currency rates may impact the profitability of the Company to the extent

of its exposure to the International business and specific currencies.

4. 3 Legal risks

Litigation regarding intellectual property rights, patents and copyrights is significantly high in the software industry.

In addition, there are other general corporate legal risks. The management has clearly charted out a review and

documentation process for all contracts.

4.4 Exchange rate risks

The functional currencies for SQL Star and our subsidiaries’ operations are the respective currencies of the

countries in which they operate. A portion of our revenues is derived from foreign exchange; any fluctuation in

this could have an impact on the Company’s performance. We actively book foreign exchange forward covers/

derivative options to hedge against foreign currency fluctuations related to bills receivables and anticipated

realizations from projected revenues.

21

24th Annual Report 2010-11

4.5 Availability of skilled personnel & attrition:

Retaining the existing talent pool and attracting new talent is a major risk. SQL Star has taken initiatives such as

Faculty Development Programs, participating in seminars etc. Rising attrition is a major risk in the industry. The

Company is addressing this through higher investments in building the competencies of its employees. The

Company also addresses employee aspirations through well planned career management and job rotation and

by giving the employees exposure to multiple technologies, domains and geographies. The Company also

strives to create a conducive environment for work life balance. The Company has created employee friendly

policies which enhance retention of employees. Wage Inflation is the other factor which has an impact on the

industry. The Company has a very strong performance management system and a systematic process for annual

increments which rewards performance.

4.6 Regulatory & Compliance risk:

The Company has a global footprint and as it increases its global reach and operations, the risk of ensuring

compliance with the regulations and laws in the various jurisdictions, of any global organization also increases.

To mitigate this risk, the Company has put in place an institutionalized structure to ensure regulatory and legal

compliance across the globe. The use of local managers as well as consultants, auditors, lawyers, specialists and

experts in these countries where we have a presence is encouraged to ensure compliance.

4.7 Information Security related risks:

Information security and business continuity is an area of concern of most customers, particularly when key

business processes are outsourced. The Company has adopted information security management system complying

with ISO 9001:2008.

4.8 Competition-related risk:

Indian IT services market remains a very competitive space. The Company is facing competition from large

Indian IT vendors and global vendors who are increasing their India presence by setting up offshore delivery

centers.

4.9 New technologies and business models continue to emerge:

The Company operates in the Information Technology Services Industry where fast and dramatic changes in

technology, business models and intense competition are a fact of life. The Company continues to engage in

newer business models in order to address changing requirements. This results in alliances, strategic investments

and joint ventures. SQL Star focus on achieving improvements based on innovation has been influenced by the

need to harness the implicit knowledge of the people within the organization.

4.10 Industry Dissonance Risk:

The Company operates in the fast changing Information Technology space where changes in technology can

make today’s market leaders into market laggards and changes in customer and market needs can result in a

mismatch between customer/market requirements and the Company’s offerings.

The Company adopts the following approaches to address these risks:-

Growth engines: The Company systematically focuses on addressing emerging buyer trends and needs by

developing solutions such as in infrastructure services or engineering services. We constantly scan the environment

for emerging technology areas and develop offerings of value in the selected areas.

24th Annual Report 2010-11

22

Deep customer relationships: The Company has a deep understanding of its customers’ needs and enhances

this by engaging systematically with customers on periodic review of customer needs and fulfillment of the

same for prospective periods.

Geo-political risks: The ability of Indian IT/BPO services companies to secure offshore projects from client

organizations abroad is often subject to threat perceptions as regards the Indian subcontinent. Current civil

situations in neighbouring countries of India may have negative implications for the operations of the Company.

To mitigate these risks and to ensure continued delivery of services to clients irrespective of any geo-political

disturbances, the Company has been taking appropriate measures in respect of disaster recovery and business

continuity in different locations.

5. INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY

The Company has an adequate system of internal controls implemented by the management towards achieving

efficiency in operations, optimum utilization of resources and effective monitoring thereof and compliance with

applicable laws. These have been designed to provide reasonable assurance with regard to recording and providing

reliable information complying with applicable statues, safeguarding assets from unauthorized use or losses, executing

transactions with proper authorization and ensuring compliances with corporate policies. The system is continuously

reinforced with analysis of data to strengthen it to meet the changing requirements. The Company has well defined

delegation of power with authority limits for approving revenue as well as expenditure. Process of evaluating long

term and short term business plans have been laid down. It has continued its efforts to maintain all its processes in line

with the global best practices. The Internal Audit process is designed to check the adequacy of internal controls and

checks in the system and cover all significant areas of company’s operations including subsidiaries.

A qualified and independent Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews the internal audit reports and the

adequacy of internal controls and also reviews all quarterly and yearly financial results of the Company and conveys

to the Board its recommendation for consideration of such results and their approval.

6. HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT (HRM):

The main objective of the HR System is to attain the support of various Business Units of the Company and to

streamline the different functions related to HRM. SQL Star has always believed in creating an environment where

our employees feel safe, secure and inspired to achieve excellence in their respective area of functioning.

SQL Star continues to focus and invest in human resource development to provide an open work culture and rewarding

career opportunities to all its employees.SQL Star provides an environment that can help the employees maintain

work-life balance. Your Company has maintained a competitive, healthy and harmonious work environment at all

levels. We have taken new initiatives to strengthen the Company’s recruitment process, values and vision programmes,

leadership and Performance management. The Company’s HR policies and processes are aligned to effectively drive

its expanding business and emerging Opportunities. This has been achieved by continuously investing in learning
