Pursuant to the said tender, various bids were received and negotiations took place with respective bidder, but none of the bidders’ price was considered reasonable.

s The management is of the opinion that if the Company is to be revived then it is imperative to make the Company clean and debt free. Once the Company becomes debt free then it opens the door of raising long term funds from prospective investors. At present, the Company is overburdened in the piles of debt and no one is coming forward to start business with the Company and the future of the Company remains blink. As such, the management is striving hard to wipe out the past debt from the books of the Company
