Note:

The registered address of the company has been shifted from 7th Floor, Indian Globe Chambers, 142, Walchand Hirachand Marg, CST, Mumbai – 400001, Maharashtra, India to the present address w.e.f. 26.09.2011.

 

 

PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY

 

There has been a substantial fall in the turnover of about 40% and subsequently in the profits of the Company for the year ending 31/03/2014 as compared to year ending 31/03/2013. However, the bottom line without profit after tax, the fall is about 35%. The main reason is that the Directors thought it prudent to be conservative rather than focusing on the volumes.

 

The Company focused on commission generated business rather than turnover. Hence, your Company got a good share in imports of raw cotton into India, as a commission agent. However, some of the commissions are reflected in the current financial year, since, as you are aware, the accounting year consists of two cotton season.

 

The picture for the coming years looks rosy since India would be number one producer of cotton in the world.
