Supreme Infrastructure has bagged two orders worth Rs 405 crore.

Vikas B Sharma, Whole Time Director of spoke about the nature of the order.

Here is a verbatim transcript of an exclusive interview with Vikas B Sharma on CNBC-TV18.

Q: Take us through these orders, how long do they last? What kind of margins will they bring?

A: These are two orders which would be awarded to the company. One is in the road segment and other is in the power distribution part of it. The road contract is going to be awarded by Punjab Government for the bypass for the entire Ludhiana town. The entire stretch is to be constructed in the two year period. This is a contract worth Rs 330 crore and the major part of it is the structural part which gives us the alignment of the Sizwan Canal, which is a very important canal in Punjab.

The strategic part is that we have to construct structures worth Rs 150 crore in the entire project. So the entire project is going to give us an EBITDA of somewhere around 16-17% on a minimum basis. The turnover and the revenue from this contract starting from April to next financial year would be about 60% of the contract size. Hence, we would be talking to somewhat Rs 100-110 crore by next financial year and the other project is into power distribution. We have quoted this contract at 18% above the estimated cost that is the estimated cost of the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution, we have to erect the transformers and do the cabling and b erections in these contracts and we have to transform the power generation from the generation point to the grid part of it and upon the commissioning we will be raising bill to the department and thereby we would be releasing payments for the work done.

Q: What is your total order book in all these three segments, the road, power and railways? You had said earlier that your railways project would commence by March 2010, is that timeline still intact?

A: Yes that is still intact. We had some rail projects in process which were in cost about Rs 30 crore that entire phase would be done by the end of this financial year, March 2010. The overall order book accounting into these contracts awarded today comes to Rs 1470 crore. Out of the existing order book, 58% is been dominated by the roads, bridges and power project comes to somewhere around 10% of the overall order book because apart from these there are three more packages where in we are awaiting for the work orders.

Q: How much will it take your order book to?

A: The order book would touch about Rs 2,000crore.

Q: What kind of revenue uptick do you expect in next couple of quarters? You did about Rs 125 crore in third quarter. When would all of this start to trickle in?

A: We have recently got the orders. So, we would be mobilizing and our self would be starting of next financial year that is mid-April. We expect 50% of sales to be booked form both these contracts by the next financial years, but for the first quarter we are expected to be somewhere around 10-15%.

Q: What do you expect this order book to last you? How long will you take to execute Rs 1500 crore order book?

A: That is to be executed over a period of two years. There are certain contracts which are worth around Rs 600 crore. This is the spill over order book and the ongoing projects. So that order book should be completed by us in the second quarter of the next financial year that is September 2009. We are targeting somewhere around Rs 800 crore for the next financial year. This is on the minimum side of it with the orders that we have in hand.
