Presently the Company operates from leased facilities in Chennai and Mumbai with approximately 475 workstations. As part of the expansion plans, the Company intends to set up new facilities to support the increase in business from existing and new clients. It proposes to buy an office space of approximately 15,000 sq. ft. at Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Chennai. The Company gets its business mainly from the United Kingdom and United States of America through tenders floated by the various government authorities, educational institutes, etc. Presently it does not have any presence in the UK and USA which many a times acts as hindrance for getting the work allotted. It feels that its offshore presence in the form of a subsidiary company would enable Vishal’s participation in the bidding process more active and fruitful. The various other marketing activities for Vishal would also be carried out from these subsidiaries.
