We are already in talks with the state government's education department for a live demo of the said software. We expect to deploy these software with most of the education institutions by the end of July 2020.

We have already signed a deal for takeover of a small manufacturing plant, which deals in API manufacturing till date and is equipped with modern machinery and running successfully. We shall start the production from this unit, under the Aaryans Flagship group by July 2020 and shall also look forward to expanding this facility for manufacturing other raw materials which are critical and curtailed for the pharma industry.

RECITAL

As a true Indian, I would like to mention here that, with the present economic slowdown, across the world and lay-offs that are happening in the world, we are with the people of India and would like to generate employment for India to the maximum of our capabilities and also contribute to the economic growth of India, as per the opportunities available.

Needless to say that, these projects are being done with the help of the Indian government, who has rolled out easy and swift norms of FDI and also softened the norms for remittance of funds into India, as FDI’s. The MAKE IN INDIA initiative of the central government of India is also working as a catalyst for motivating and incentivizing foreign companies to invest in India and set up their manufacturing / assembly units in India.

Lastly, I would like to also urge the youth of India, skilled or unskilled, not be disheartened with the fact that some countries of the world are laying off good talents of India or are not allowing visas to Indian talents. The reason for my saying this is because these opportunities are coming up in our mother land itself, but maybe, we need to keep some patience as these opportunities are developing and coming up slowly

"I invite all the youth and talents of India to feel free to write to us on the mail info@aaryansgroup.org and we shall be happy to have you onboard depending up on your abilities and interviews."

Economic challenges due to corona virus pandemic

The world today has been witnessing a severe pandemic, namely, COVID-19, which has got in its stride, all the countries / economies, weather big or small, and has brought the whole economy of all the countries to a standstill. As we all know that the fight with corona virus is a mass issue and by the characteristics of the virus, the only alternative left behind with any administrative authority, is to implement social distancing on a stricter level of compliance and adherence.

This lockdown has made all the industries, big or small, to suffer losses due to the fact that the production activities, for most of the industries, are off and due to this the revenue generation is almost ZERO for all the industries, that’s LARGE SCALE INDUSTRIES, like steel manufacturing, cement, heavy machinery, etc OR MEDIUM AND SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES, which also includes private sector undertakings.

On the basic level the industry or business man faces cash flow constraints due to the fact that the revenue generation is zero but at the same time the administrative expenses are piling up. Those business houses, private or public, who do not have a positive general reserve and surplus in their balance sheet , may or may not be able to sustain this cash flow crunch and may have to opt for external borrowings or bank loans, at a cost of interest, there up on.

On the other side, small business houses or private enterprises may generally not have so much of financial back up which can help them sustain for 12 to 15 months, without revenue generation. The same is the scenario for the daily wage workers, who are hand-to-mouth, in day to day life.

On the other hand, when the production goes down and after the lockdown is lifted or called off, there will be a scarcity of non-essential items and even some food items, which may raise the prices of the products and in turn will increase the cost of living for a middle class person and the poor segment of the society.

Speaking on MACRO economic level, it is said the nationwide lockdown announced to contain the coronavirus outbreak has impacted industries, irrespective of their business being depended on national market or international market. .

"The Indian economy is likely to witness a sharp contraction of 4.5 per cent (de-growth) during Q4 FY20 and is expected to recover gradually, to post a GDP growth of just 2 per cent in FY21,", as per the economic analysis of expert agencies.

It also said the concerns on account of Covid-19 have morphed from the impact of imports from China on domestic supply chains, into a domestic and external demand shock, with social distancing and lockdowns leading to production shutdowns and job losses in some sectors.

The rating agency's further added "Amid uncertainty as to when the situation will normalize, we expect a sharp downturn in various indicators of the manufacturing and services sectors from March 2020 onwards."

This primarily includes the discretionary activities like travel, tourism and hospitality; labour intensive sectors like construction, transport and manufacturing of non-essential items; exports; and supporting sectors like electricity, he said.

Domestically, the impact of the coronavirus pandemic could lead to slowdown in domestic demand, erosion of purchasing power due to job losses or pay cuts and trickle-down effect of demand deferral will have a longer-lasting impact on some other sectors, especially where demand is discretionary in nature.

Global economic slowdown and lockouts is likely to impact sectors with high dependence on global demand especially that of key impacted markets like Europe, North America and South-East Asia. It is said that, lower global demand and price realization will have an impact on commodities like oil and gas, metals and as on date we are already witnessing a lowest rate of crude oil, which is a never before scenario, in last over 4 decades.

"Foreign exchange rate fluctuations will have bearing on import-heavy sectors with forex-denominated cost structure". Moreover, there can be a scenario where in the FDI’s which have come in to India, since last few years, may pull back their investment from India, to cover up or manage their cash flow constraints, in their own mother land. If such a scenario is witnessed then there will be a heavy pressure on the forex reserve of our country and exchange rates of rupees against a dollar.

The high impact sectors in terms of risk on account of COVID-19 are aviation, hotels, restaurants, jewelry, retail, shipping, ports and port services.

The medium impact sectors are automobiles, building materials, residential real estates while the low impact sectors includes education, dairy products, fertilizers, FMCG and healthcare among others.

According to the rating agency, in the current scenario, extended demand disruptions are likely to lead to elongated payment cycles.

"Since an entity's liquidity position is of paramount importance to support its credit profile, it is expected that several entities would endeavor to conserve cash, either by invoking force majeure clauses to revoke payments; or by deferring payments to the extent possible,", as said.

A ROAD MAP AHEAD FOR AARYAN GROUP OF COMPANIES

As declared by us earlier, Aaryans group is venturing in to various fields of business and would like to share with all the road map that has been pen down by me for the different industries, which is as follows

INFRASTRUCTURE

This industry is expected to have a south ward flow as far as business is concerned as due to covid-19, there is a possibility that the surplus income in the hand of the home buyers would be drastically decrease, plus there are signs of lay off also in few industries, which may have a steep drop in the demand for real estate as the need for survival would be rated high then that of buying a house.

At the same time, we should not discard or rule out a possibility that the corporates or people who already have reserved funds, would opt to buy at this point of time in the real estate industry and we are Aaryans group shall be exploiting all such avenues , which come our way .

We are already in advance talks for land and project development, with few prominent names in the industry and shall act further on the same with prudence once the lockdown is over and taking a deep analysis of the real estate market scenario.

ENTERTAINMENT AND MEDIA

As on date, there lies a great responsibility on the shoulders of media, as people look up to new and media for getting reliable information on the pandemic and the economic scenario that are taking place in the country.

On the entertainment front, we all know as on date that all the entertainment sources like, cinema halls, malls, hotels, resorts, etc have been made to stay CLOSED and due to this, the clouds look gloomy to me. Due to the fact that, there is no vaccination that has been produced by medical science till date and experiments are going on and experiments are going on for the same and the pandemic has a feature to get contracted to someone through touch or through air travel, it is very likely that the public places like malls, cinema halls, etc may have to be kept closed by the administrative authorities.

Hence we are Aaryans group shall be going a bit slow on the same but at the same time we shall be keeping a sharp eye on land deals as this is the time that we will be getting a land parcel at a very reasonable or cheaper.

STEEL PLANT AND POWER PLANT

This being a heavy industry, the challenges here as on date are with regards to very high administrative cost / running costs and at the same time as on date the production units are closed , which poses an acute stress on the company’s cash flow. In such a scenario the company may have to resort to utilizing of general reserves or go for borrowing from open market at a cost.

At this stage, we will be focused on setting up the factory by expediting the process of land acquisition and also procure the machinery and other equipment’s, as in today’s scenario the rates will be very low and also the labor will be available at a lower wages.

PHARMACEUTICALS

In the prevailing situation, pharma industry has been getting the highest boost and it is expected that this industry will have a very bright and progressive future, for next few years to come.

In fact, Aaryans group, had already initiated a process of taking up an existing pharma company in Maharashtra and we expect the paper work to get through immediately, once the lockdown is over. This will be a very big boost to the portfolio of Aaryan Group’s.

REFINERY

This industry is already having a honeymoon phase since last 2 months from the time Russia and Arab countries are fighting on the crude oil prices. It’s very good news for all the countries across the globe, who are big consumers of oil and other oil products.

Aaryans is looking up to have a refinery set up done which can handle refining of crude oil and also precious metals, from the same unit or set up.

This will help us in controlling the administrative over heads, as we will be having few common set up for refining both the products and also precious metal market is booming up as people across the world are showing their trust and confidence in precious metal, as a sound investment and saving.

In general, I and my team have pen down some basic points, which we need to keep in mind and that will be a thumb rule to follow by the core team of Aaryans Team, in general. Those points are as follows

1. Economizing on the use of resources, like manpower. Capital, etc.
2. Concentrating on the cost of production of the goods / services produced so that it can be sold at a competitive rate.
3. Avail the benefits of price reduction in the international market for imports of plant and machinery, where ever possible or needed.
4. Optimize the benefit of presence of the group in the overseas land for imports and other allied services that needs to be imported in to India.
5. Aaryans group shall do everything possible to generate employment of the skilled and semi-skilled workers and earn foreign exchange for the country.
6. As a responsible citizen of India we shall make sure that we do philanthropic activities to the best of our ability and capabilities. Such activities are the best was of showing our gratitude to the society, for what ever the society has given to us.
7. We shall be more then happy to assist and help those who have innovative and unique ideas with them but are unable to execute the same due to scarcity of resources. We urge all those to feel free and write back to us on info@aaryansgroup.org or contact@aaryansgroup.org and we shall be happy to be of help to you on all aspects.

As per a McKinsey survey of entrepreneurs released few days ago, 53% of Indian entrepreneurs are optimistic, while only 25% of Japanese entrepreneurs are optimistic.

AARYANS GROUP STRONGLY BELIEVES THAT SINCE INDIA IS A COUNTRY OF GOD LOVING PEOPLE, WE WILL SURELY COME OUT OF THIS PANDEMIC AND SHALL SET A PRECEDENT IN FRONT OF THE WORLD, AS TO WHAT PRAYERS CAN DO. WE ACCEPT TO PLAY A PROMINENT ROLE IN THE SUCCESS STORY OF INDIA, WHICH IS AN EMERGING ECONOMY IN THE WORLD, AS ON DATE.

I hope and believe that this message finds you all in the best of health and you all are safe and healthy. As you all are aware that the lockdown norms are being relaxed and the implementation of UNLOCK PHASE is at its peak around India, many services and businesses are now being allowed to operate under the guidelines of social distancing and sanitization. Only a selected few business establishments like malls, multiplexes, etc are abstained to open up until further notice but am sure in the future they will be granted permission to operate.

Additionally, the central government and state government have already implemented and rolled out various schemes and incentives to facilitate the process of EASE OF DOING BUSINESS and this I believe is a strong move by the administrative authority towards bringing the economy back in action and moving on the path of economic development.

Moving forward for Aaryans Group, as I had commented in the concluding statements of my last message and in continuation of the same, I would like to update you further as follows:-

Recent Associations / Collaborations

I am happy and proud to announce the association of Aaryans Group with the prestigious business house, Mittal group of United Kingdom and this joint venture entity will be identifying opportunities in Montenegro (Europe), the British Virgin Island and Ireland, in the first phase of its association and shall keep spreading its wings in other parts of the world, as and when the opportunities come our way.

Media and Entertainment sector

On the Media and entertainment business, we are happy to launch our OVER THE TOP (OTT) platform by the name of SALTPIX, on this auspicious occasion of Republic Day, 2021. This platform is aimed to keep you entertained with web series and other programs pertaining to all the sections of the society and shall cover all the segments, that is, economic, political, criminal, etc. We shall send the links of the same to all to enable everyone to have quick and easy access to the said platform.

We are also launching our monthly periodical/magazine in the 1st week of November 2020 and this will convey news at its face value from the land of India and shall cater to all segments and sectors of the society.

We are also moving forward on launching our satellite channel and the required paperwork and other matters are already on its way for us and in process. We aim and believe that the channel would be aired by January next year in all possibilities. This will have an initial investment of Rs. 100 crores.

Pharmaceuticals

The second development for us is in the Pharmaceutical sector where we have already signed up a takeover deal with an existing pharmaceutical manufacturing company and the transfer documentation is under process. We would also set up a new, state of the art, manufacturing unit for producing API’s with international standards and quality control measures. This would call for a capital expenditure of around Rs. 200 crores in the initial stage.

Refinery Sector

We have also signed MOU with our venture partner for establishing the Metal Refinery unit and the process of licensing and other paperwork has already started. We are also in the process of identifying land for establishing the same in Maharashtra, preferably close to the metal markets of Maharashtra. This sector shall have a phase 1 investment of approx Rs. 150 crores.

Information Technology

Virtual classrooms = We have already developed software that enables the schools/tutorials to conduct their lectures on virtual platforms and the same has been already marketed across many educational institutions and coaching classes and we are happy with the response that is being generated by the same. We have also done a successful trial of the same with an institution with motivating results.

Education Sector

We have also entered into an agreement of sale with an existing school which is having decent student strength and the MOU for the same is already signed and sealed by us. This school will be renovated to match the latest norms and standards of education, which are required to be offered to the pupils, which in turn will also motivate the parents to get their ward to our institution. The teaching and nonteaching staff also will be retained from the existing faculty and for new courses; we have already identified the best talents to impart their knowledge to the prospective students. The motto and aim of the Aaryans group is not only to impart knowledge to the pupils but also to make them a humble and good human being. This would call for a capital expenditure of around Rs. 50 crores.

Venture Capital

On the behest of the relaxed lockdown norms and the heading towards the final phase of unlocking all over the country, I am sure, there are many opportunities that are awaiting the right person to grab them and we would like to be the winner in the race. We also know there are many STARTUPS which are on hold due to delay in financial tie-ups/arrangements, in the midst of a lockdown scenario which was prevailing from March 2020 to a couple of months ago.

Moreover, we would also be open and looking forward to joining hands for joint venture arrangements for a particular project which is a capital incentive and can definitely evaluate the possibility of being a financial / investment partner in the subject venture. We are also open to investing in overseas markets or foreign land depending on the industry and on our project analysis.

As a concluding note, I further urge all to please feel free to write us at contact@aaryansgroup.org or call us at +91 7744038427 from Monday to Saturday between 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM with any ideas or concept that you may wish to share with us and we would be happy to get associated with you on the said venture after evaluating the opportunities associated with your proposal.
