OPERATIONS
During the year under review, the Company could not operate its
business satisfactorily due to non- availability of any business
opportunity. Further, the continued scarcity of good quality raw
material, steep rise in the overall cost of inputs, absence of working
capital finances have made the operations of the Company economically
unviable. The accumulated losses till end of the financial year have
amounted to Rs. 2595.79 Lacs. However, the Management explored various
feasible alternatives, but was forced to close down its manufacturing
unit in previous year.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
The management of the Company expects to commence operations at any
other alternate place and therefore any turning around of the Company
in the near future is very likely. Now, the Company has recommenced
trading activity for old stocks and various other business activities.
The Company expects to enhance its business activities in the days to
come.
