LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

During the year, the company achieved a profit before tax of Rs.74.700 Millions and a profit after tax of Rs.60.100 Millions. During the financial year the quantum of production and sales increased by 2% and 4%. However, the increase in turnover was only Rs. 50.000 Millions due to steep fall in selling prices of the product. Selling prices are a function of the customs duty and the dollar to rupee parity, which determine the landed cost of competing imported products. The customs duty was reduced during March 2007 by 5% and the rupee also appreciated sharply by 11 % around the beginning of the financial year and thus these factors had a significant effect on the selling prices of the product, which reduced the turnover, even though the quantum of production and sales have gone up. Similarly, the significant increase in cost of petroleum inputs without any corresponding increase in the selling prices of their end products, resulted in a decreased profit.

 

OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

Production and sales further improved during the year with more than 100% capacity utilization as per the trend set over the last five years. Higher production levels helped the company to offset the adverse impact of lower selling prices of finished products and increase in raw material and fuel oil prices. Due to improved market conditions, the company improved the sales matching with the improved production. Due to the improved production and various energy and cost saving measures implemented over the years, the specific consumption of power, fuel oil and fresh water have been brought down considerably. But for this effort, cost of production would have been far higher. Continuous efforts are being done to improve further.
