FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE WITH RESPECT TO OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

 

Manufacturing Division :

 

After the acquisition of plant & machinery for emulsions manufacturing from Mafatlal Dyes and Chemicals Ltd. in the previous year and relocating the same at company's existing facility at Dahanu, Maharashtra , further modifications at the plant were carried out raising the manufacturing capacity to 7500 MT/year of emulsions. The production for the financial year under reference has increased to 5251 MT as compared to 3824 MT in the previous year (inclusive of job work production) registering an increase of about 37%. The manufacturing sales has increased to Rs.157.0 millions in the year under review as compared

to Rs.86.1 millions for the previous year registering an increase of about 82%. The job work receipts are at Rs.5.380 millions similar to previous year of Rs.54.34 millions.

 

Trading Division :

In the trading segment, the sales have increased to Rs. 246.1 millions against previous year of

Rs.205.7 millions, an increase of about 20% mainly on account of steep increase in down stream

petrochemical products prices, in which the company is trading. The volume growth registered a nominal increase of about 3%. In the service segment, the gross revenue from the services rendered for storage of petrochemicals, commission charges, etc. have increased to Rs.9.338 millions from Rs.8.179 millions registering an increase of 14%.

 

OUTLOOK

 

After having acquired the brand and technology of manufacturing polymer emulsions products from Mafatlal Dyes & Chemicals (MDC), we have fully absorbed the technology of manufacturing and have undertaken improvement wherever required on an ongoing basis. The products are well approved and accepted by industry resulting into widening of the customer base. The products find applications in various industries like Textiles, Packaging, Paint, Furniture and other miscellaneous industries. Packaging products in turn find application in large number of sectors such as Textiles, Consumer Durables, FMGC, etc. Considering a healthy growth seen in some of the above industries, the company's future in industrial segment appears encouraging. With small beginning in retail space of wood adhesive and other products, we expect steady growth in this segment too.
