LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

PERFORMANCE FOR THE YEAR :

During the year the Company achieved a turnover of Rs. 1380.000 Millions, as against Rs 2240.000 Millions during the year 2004-05. The low turnover was due to lower volume of sales on account of unfavorable market

conditions.

 

There is a Net Loss of Rs. 61.700 Millions for the year as compared to a Profit of Rs.16.200 Milliosn in the previous year.

 

The observations made by the auditors regarding recovery of overdue debts of Rs. 9,340,257 and an item of

work-in-progress of Rs 14,077,977 have been clarified by the management at Notes 19(a) and (b) of Notes

to Accounts under Schedule "L".

 

COMPANYS1 FACTORY AT REAY ROAD

As per intimation already sent to Stock Exchanges in May, 2006 , the Company has made an application under Section 25 "0" of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 for obtaining permission to close down the manufacturing operations at its factory at S.N.Redij Marg, Ghorupdeo, Mumbai 400 033. Keeping in view the bleak prospects of revival of this industry, your Directors considered it advisable to discontinue the operations which are commercially non viable. This factory mainly manufactured Vanaspati and Refined Oil. As and when Company's application is approved , workers will be paid their legal compensation as per relevant provisions of law.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The total revenue of the Company for the year under review is Rs.1380.000Millions as compared to Rs.2160.000 Millions in the previous year. The Company has incurred loss of Rs.61.700 Millions as compared to the profit

of Rs.16.200 Millions in the last year. The loss is mainly due to trying and difficult conditions, in the Edible Oil

/ Vanaspati division. This has been the sole reason for depressed and unfavourable bottom line.The Edible Oil / Vanaspati division has always constituted a major contributor to the turnover of the Company. Due to prevailing government policies, the basic raw material to manufacture Edible Oil / Vanaspati is subject to an import duty of around 90% of the GIF value of the goods. However, Vanaspati imported from Sri Lanka or Nepal is duty free. This has crippled the Vanaspati industry. Because of this reason coupled with high labour and other elements of costs, theTnanufacture of Refined Oil / Vanaspati is no longer viable proposition at Reay Road unit. The edible oil unit at Reay Road could process only 5043 M.T. of Edible Oil during the year under review.

 

The Foundry Chemical division which is the other important business segment of the Company, has shown some improvement in the turnover and it is expected that in the coming years this sector would show improved turnover and profitability as the industries to which it caters have shown healthy growth figures.

 

The management is fully aware of the present situation and is taking effective steps and striving to reorganize and restructure the business of the Company, so as to ensure a better tomorrow.

 

The Company has an effective internal audit system which covers all areas of the Company's operations and plays an important role in ensuring a sound internal control system. The management is aware of the importance of internal controls and steps are continuously taken up to upgrade the control systems.

 

The present Government policy is not conducive / suitable for manufacture and marketing of vanaspati. Frequent changes of policies by the government has currently made manufacturing un-remunerative.The management is taking the steps to reduce the effect of uneconomical operations of the Edible Oil division. This is expected to augur well for the Company in future.

 

The Company is currently concentrating on the Foundry Chemical and Ceramic divisions which offer a better opportunity in terms of higher sales and profitability. Oil trading business is now a losing proposition and the Company has been compelled to abandon this area of activity.

 

However, the performance of Foundry Chemical and Ceramic manufacturing divisions also face the threat of local and international competition and fluctuations in prices of petroleum based raw materials which could affect its performance.

 

The Company's exposure to Foreign Exchange is now limited to the import of certain raw materials. However, adequate cover is taken to provide against exchange rate fluctuations.
