LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

Results of Operations:

 

The top line of the company has registered a growth of 41% during FY 2009-10. This was possible largely due to the buoyancy in the automotive business and the sale of Rapid Load-out Systems.

 

The net profit, too, has registered a healthy 23% growth over last year. This was largely propelled by improvements in plant management. The company was able to largely offset steel price increases by adjusting selling prices and by making design improvements. The net profit growth, however, is not commensurate with the revenue growth since the execution of rapid load-out systems is incomplete. This division has incurred revenue expenditure and has not billed to consumers yet, keeping in line with their approved billing schedule of customers.

 

During the year, the company has sold all plant and machinery belonging to the powder coating division, thus absorbing a loss of Rs.1.790 Millions in the sale of these assets. The land and building have been leased out.

 

The company had invested in the JV Aditya-Essae Auto Parts Limited. Mass production has commenced in the JV plant from January 2010.

 

Change of Address:

 

The Registered Office of the Company has been shifted from A-1, Essa Industrial Estate, 62/3, Begur Hobli Road, Bommanahalli, Bangalore – 560 068, Karnataka, India to the present address w.e.f. 01.08.2007.
