MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

Forward-Looking Statements: 

This report contains forward-looking statements that covers expectations or projections about the future, including statements about the Company's strategy for growth, product development, market scenario, expenditures and financial results are forward-looking statements. 

Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and expectations of future events. The Company cannot guarantee that these assumptions and expectations are accurate or will be realized fully. The Company's actual results, performance or achievements, could thus differ materially from those projected in any such forward-looking statements.

 Overall review: 

The Company is manufacturing both power & telecom cables. The Company markets its cable under the brand name UNICAB which is a well-known brand in the industry from past so many years. During the year the power cable industry has shown signs of significant improvements both Domestically and Externally. The telecom cable industry has also shown some improvements.

With working capital in hand, Company is showing major turn around specially in Power and Telecom


 Outlook: 
 The demand for power cable is likely to be strong as the Electricity Act, 2003 will radically change the power sector landscape. It will liberalise the generation sector, introduce competition in transmission and distribution through open access, the mandatory unbundling of SEBs leading to privatisation, introduction of trading as a separate market function, preparation of national policies on tariff, rural electrification, renewable energy development, strengthening of the roles of regulatory commissions, constitution of appellate tribunal, and stringent anti-theft measures to curb the incidence of high commercial losses will improve the demand for cables as well as other ancillary power equipments. 


 The Central Govt. also plan to create additional power capacity by more than 100% giving major boost to power distribution sector. Similarly further investment by large industrial houses in industrial capex will also drive the demand of power cables significantly.

Financial Performance with respect to Operational Performance:

The Financial Statements have been prepared in compliance with the requirements of the Companies Act and the Accounting Standards issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

 Sales for the financial year 2006-07 for nine months ending March 31, 2007 stand at Rs.2,80.518 millions which. shows annualized increase of 34.38% as against Rs.3,47.915 millions in the previous year 2005-2006 (15 months period).
