LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

 

OPERATIONS : 


 
 The wool business under the review witnessed extremely difficult period andunprecedented crisis as demand slumped following rise in wool prices owingto steep decline in production and severe drought in Australia. The globalcapacities were far in excess of demand as a result of which wool/Polywoolproduction has to be reduced. The severe competition resulted in reducedmargins. The European market continued to witness depressed marketconditions and not showing sign of recovery. The All wool and Poly woolyarn capacities were replaced with lower value product like Acrylic & otherblended products which ultimately effected the bottom line. The foreigncurrency exchange losses significantly effected the operating results dueto substantial strengthening of AUD currency. 


 
 Your Directors are of the opinion that there will be improved operatingresults in coming year due to overall improvement in global economy andgradual correction in wool prices. 
 
 During the year under review, ICICI Bank had assigned and transferredentire credit facilities to Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited(ARCIL) on 29th March 2003. However, the Company has filed a Writ Petitionin Kolkata High Court for specific performance of the Agreement for Sale ofthe Assets as a going concern for the agreed price of Rs.1410.000 millions  as perbid submitted by the Company against tender floated by ICICI Bank. 
 
 In view of the operating losses and carry forward of accumulated losses,your Directors regret their inability to recommend payment of any dividendfor the financial year ended 31st March, 2004. 
 
 FUTURE PROSPECTS :
 


 
 In spite of tough global competition and increased raw material prices,your company geared up to accept challenges and will have edge over thecompetitors in global and domestic markets with respect to quality, rangeof products and service. The ongoing continuous efforts to increase theproductivity, improve the yield and cost reduction measures will furtheryield competitive advantages to the company. 


 
 In view of the above, your Directors are of the opinion that outlook of thefuture performance of the company appears to be very encouraging andbright.
