Rolta

The leader in the CAD/CAM and GIS conversion services markets, which entered

the ISP business last year, stands at #15 this year, against #22 previously. The

Mumbai-based company reported revenues of Rs 253.16 crore and a net profit of Rs

90.86 crore in the year ended December 2000. While profits grew by 43%, net

profit was up by 51%. The company’s gross block grew by 75% to Rs 225.46 crore.

Rolta was placed at #16 in sales and #9 in both profit growth and gross block

growth. It was placed at #11 in ROCE, which improved from 25% to 33%. Rolta has

been consistently increasing its conversion capacity, which has led to sustained

growth in the past few years. However, its ISP business continues to remain a

drag, despite the company having been rated as one of the best ISPs in Mumbai

city.
