Performance and Operation review:

 

The year 2010-11 saw a growth of 24.20% in value over 2009-10. The sales growth is mainly due to refocusing of the market as well as the product group. There has been a net profit growth of 122.79% over the previous year which is partly on account of reduction of losses on foreign exchange, besides sales growth and operational efficiency.

 

Future Prospects:

 

While SBU 1 has shown strong growth, the margins are under pressure, However, the Company has been able to expand business to new overseas customers in Asia compensating loss of business in Europe as well as new product lines have shown higher growth in India, Refocusing has been done on some key products for Europe now, which is likely to increase business in Europe. The focus in Domestic market has been to get large packaging converters to manufacture inks using chips which giving us better dividends.

 

As regards SBU-2, the focus has been Digital Inks besides Acrylic Polyol on which R and D has been working hard for cheaper product range to expand market share. The performance from IV partner for China business as well as other business has been below projected level like past years. However, PPG and few key US playersentry in Indian market in a big way may see a rise in domestic business for new technology.

 

Contingent Liabilities:

Bills Receivable and discounting with bank of Rs.10.171 Millions
