Apprehensions
allayed
Risk management
During a corporate’s journey from a fledgling
to an industry leader, its risk profile changes –
from one of surviving the day-to-day travails to
one of sustaining its position. The same holds
true at Kajaria Ceramics, India’s leading tile
manufacturer.
Risk management at Kajaria is an integral part
of the business model, focusing to mitigate
the adverse impact of risks on objectives. The
Company leveraged its three-decade rich
experience to allay shareholder apprehension
about prospects.
Relevance:
The Indian tile
industry has grown at a
strong 12-13% over the last
decade, but its growth was
subdued in the last couple of
years.
Optimism:
Demand for
tiles is expected to improve
over the medium-term. This
optimism is based on the
Central Government’s thrust
on housing and creation of
new infrastructure.
