SECURED LOAN:

A) Term Loans from Financial Institutions are secured by first mortgage ranking pari-passu of all the immovable properties both present and future and a first charge by way of hypothecation of all the movables (save and except book debts) including movable machinery, spares, tools and accessories, present and future subject to prior charge to be created in favour of the company's bankers on the stock of raw materials, semi-finished and finished goods, consumable stock and such movables as may be agreed by the lead institution for securing the working capital requirements.

B) Lenders have at their option a right to convert the 20% of outstanding amount into fully paid equity shares, in the event of default by the Company in payment of principal and / or interest.

C) The Company, in 1990 availed Term Loans of Rs. 92.567 Millions from a consortium of three financial institutions namely ICICI, IDBI and IFCI, with ICICI as the lead institution. Due to recession in the market and accumulated losses which were partly occasioned by high interest rates and partly by time over-run and cost over-run, and despite best efforts of the promoters and the management, the Company turned into a sick company and was referred to Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) vide Reference Case No. 197/97.

A Rehabilitation Scheme/Package formulated and agreed upon by all the FIs was approved by the BIFR on 27.12.1999 where under the dues were freshly determined and fixed as Rs.117.800 Millions.

The net worth of the Company turned positive and after considering the Balance Sheet for the year ended on 31st March, 2000, the BIFR closed the reference case on 4.10.2001.

As per the package, one of the sources of finance to repay the FIs was working capital facilities. Since the Company was under RBI's defaulters list, no banks were willing to extend the required working capital limits. This was duly brought to the notice of the BIFR. However, despite the best efforts, the Company could not arrange the working capital limits thereby leading to delayed repayments to the Financial Institutions.

In all, however, over the years, the Company made a total repayment of Rs. 128.413 Millions out which Rs.110.189 Millions was made under/after the BIFR Scheme to the consortium members. The major portion of this was paid to the lead institution, ICICI. As the Company did not have the details of amounts adjusted by and amongst members of the Consortium out of the various repayments made by it and since, ICICI had filed a winding-up petition in the High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh on 8.10.2004 for recovery of Rs.32.993 Millions. the Company, after October 2005, preferred not to make any further payments to the FIs since the matter was sub-judice

D) In 2005, the RBI released a Scheme / Guidelines for One-Time Settlement of loan accounts of Small and Medium Companies. Since our Company fulfilled the criteria for availing the benefits under the said ,Scheme, which is binding upon the banks and FIs, our Company re-calculated the payments made under the said Scheme, and after adjusting the amounts already paid to the consortium members, the dues towards the consortium came out to be Rs.0.262 Millions only.

The Company accordingly made an application under the OTS Scheme to the FIs before the deadline of end March 2006 and offered to pay the said amount of Rs.0.262 Millions.

However, the Financial Institutions did not settle the Company's matter under RBI's OTS Guidelines and demanded unreasonably high amounts

In the meanwhile ICICI assigned its debts to Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd (KMBL) on 25.04.2005. The Company was constrained to file Civil Suit No. 1569/2006 in Delhi High Court in August 2006 against ICICI, IDBI, IFCI and KMBL for declaring that RBI circulars in question are applicable to the Settlement of NPA dues of the Company and that in consequence thereto, the Company is liable to pay only Rs.0.262 Millions to the consortium and to restrain each of the FIs from taking any coercive steps for recovery against the Company till the judicial determination of alleged dues by the Hon'ble Court. The said suit was disposed with the liberty to the Company to take all possible defences if and when any legal proceedings are resorted by the FIs. The Company then filed Inter-Pleader suit offering to deposit the said amount in the court, which Was disposed off on 10.05.2007, in view of the filing of the application by KMBL on 23.01.2007 in the Debts Recovery Tribunal-ll (DRT-II), New Delhi for recovery of Rs. 47.207 Millions. The said case is being contested by the Company and the adjudication of dues is sub-judice.

E) In 2008, IFCI and IDBI are stated to have assigned their loan accounts to Dhir and Dhir Asset Reconstruction and Securitization Company Limited (D and DARSCL) for Rs.3,04,00,000 and Rs. 4,11,50,000 respectively

D and DARSCL filed an application in DRT-I, Delhi for recovery of Rs. 1337.025 Millions for the dues calculated, on the IFCI debts. The same is being contested by the Company.

D and DARSCL also issued notice under Section 13(2) of SARFAESI Act demanding an amount of Rs. 1444.660 Millions against dues calculated on both IFCI and IDBI debts. The same was duly replied to by the Company, raising vital questions of fact and law.

The winding-Up petition which was filed by ICICI on 08.10.2004 in the High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandgarh, was admitted on 26.05.2005 and the Company judge in his order dated 29.05.2009 directed for advertisement to be issued as factum of admission which was published on 22.07.2009.

On 29.07.2009 D and DARSCL filed an application u/s 14 of SARFAESI Act with Dy. Commissioner, Rewari in attempt to take possession of the Company's assets.

However, the High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh vide its Order dated 21.8.2009 directed that, as an interim measure, the present management of the Company shall not be dispossessed. The said order was challenged by D and DARSCL (its name was subsequently changed to Alchemist Asset Reconstruction Company Limited) in the Division Bench, but its appeal was dismissed on 18.02.2010.

Meanwhite the DRT-II imposed a cost of Rs. 0.002 Millions on Kotak Bank on 11.12.2009 for not filling their response to our reply and further imposed a cost of Rs. 0.025 Millions on 01.02.2010 on ICICI Bank for not furnishing the details of the payments received by them from our Company.

An application for directing the lenders to calculate and settle our dues as per OTS guidelines of RBI as per the judgement of Supreme Court in Sardar Associates, case has been filled in DRT-I which is pending. The Company is hopeful that in view of Supreme Court's judgement, the liability would be settled as per the RBI guidelines, by which our liability would come to Rs. 0.262 Millions only.

Alchemist Assets Reconstruction Company Limited (formerly known as Dhir and Dhir Assets Reconstruction and Securitization Company Limited) has sent letters on 05.05.2010 to seven customers of the Company for stopping payments of purchase consideration of goods purchased from the Company in breach of the High Court order dated 21.08.2009. In reply to this the Company has filed a contempt of Court petition on 27.05.2010. The matter is still pending in the Court.

F) Loan from HDFC Bank Ltd., against hypothecation of motor cars.

G) Loan from Maruti Suzuki India Ltd. against hypothecation of motor cars.

Operations:

 

During the year ended 31st March 2010, the Gross Sales of the Company increased by marginally about 1% amounting to Rs. 329.907 Millions. Profit before Interest, Depreciation and Taxes was Rs. 11.171 Millions against a loss of Rs. 12.356 Millions and net Profit was at Rs 1.137 Millions compared with the loss of Rs. 14.108 Millions for the preceding year.

 

Due to uncertainty of the Court Cases against the Company, the performance for the first 7 to 8 months was very much below expectations and behind that of the previous year. However on 21st August 2009, The Punjab and Haryana High Court, Chandigarh delivered a stay against the Asset Recovery Company from taking possession of the Company. This resulted as a moral booster to all the employees of the Company, and from end November 2009, the performance of the Company improved drastically which enabled it to out-do the overall performance of preceding year.

 

 

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

The Company is a leading manufacturer of Auto Suspension Springs and is one of the leading market players in springs for other Industrial Applications. Business from the Auto Suspension Springs accounted for more than 90% of the total turnover. As India's growth momentum accelerated, the Automotive Industry witnessed a sharp trajectory growth of 29% despite the slowdown that this sector witnessed in 2008-09. The passenger vehicles grew by a huge 28.7% only when compared to just over 8.6% for the previous year. The Heavy and Medium commercial vehicles also grew by 23.1% as against the negative growth of approx -2% for the previous year. Amidst this situation, the Company's sales grew by only 6.5% due to capaity constraints as well as due to the pending litigation cases. However, this is an improvement over the negative growth of more than 12.7% in this sector for the previous year. .

 

Although the Company performed better than the previous year in terms of better production, the sales did not show much improvement due to pressures on the selling price and increase in the cost of raw materials over the past one year. Due to capacity constraints and pending litigation cases in the courts, the Company has not only been losing market shares but also been losing great opportunities.

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE & DEVELOPMENT

 

As India's growth momentum accelerates, the demand for automobiles is expected to increase as well- in fact, at an even faster pace. Since 2000, the Indian auto component industry has grown steadily; the past few months indicate that the growth trajectory is now moving much faster and sharper. From being a supplier to Indian auto manufacturers, the industry has been transforming itself into becoming a viable option for Global Sourcing for automobile majors across the world. Simultaneously, the automobile industry in India, fuelled by economic growth, more nuclear families, greater disposable income and easier consumer credit facilities, has been growing rapidly and is expected to continue on its growth path.

 

With India returning on a growth path, the automotive sector numbers have been trending rapidly upwards. According to the latest published figures, that of April - May, 2010, overall production growth has been 33.5% over the corresponding period last year. Sales of passenger vehicles have grown 34.5%; whereas commercial vehicles sales have grown by 61% during the same period.

 

COMPANY PERFORMANCE

a)      Existing Products:

 

The Company is having a strong presence in the Mini and Compact Passenger Cars segment as its main customer, Maruti Suzuki has 8 models in this segment in comparison to its competitors. There has been suprising growth in the newly launched MPV the New Eeco almost to the tune of 7000 vehicles being manufactured every month.

 

Due to manufacturing capacity constraints the company is unable to push its products with the other Auto mobiles players. Also it has lowered its supply for the Fails safe Brake Actuator Springs supplied to the Medium and Heavy Commerical Vehicles.

 

The Company has found a new market and has included supplies for cab suspension again for the Commercial Vehicles.

 

Due to Capacity issues the Company's Market share has fallen to 30% in the Passenger Vehicle Segment and 16% in the Commerical Vehicle Segment.

 

b)      New Product Development:

 

Witnessing the growth in the automobile market with new players coming in there were a few new developments the company made in the last fiscal. The company was able to design Progressive Design Springs for the successful running Maruti Eeco for both Petrol and CNG version. A new Design for the upcoming new Alto was a big success. Along with this the company designed High Stress Springs for the TATA Aria to be launched in September 2010. Other than Suspension Springs the Company has developed Springs for Electronic Power Steering for the New Swift and Springs for CNG Valves for all CNG variants to be launched by Maruti Suzuki towards a "Green Growth"

 

The Company is also looking at adapting newer technology to increase its foray in the Front Suspension, Spring Technology.

 

BUSINESS OUTLOOK AND OVERVIEW

 

Towards the start of the current year the Automotive Industry in India has suddenly picked up growth and it is felt that the growth for the current year would as high as 15-20%.

 

In this background, the Company wants to retain market share, it has to increase its production to more than 2 million numbers and also look at future expansion in capacity.

 

As such, the Company would have to re-strategize and improve its production systems
