Financial Performance

Highlights of performance during the financial year 2014-15 are:

total Revenue from operation of the Company is Rs.4.38 crores as against Rs. 10.30 crores in the previous year.

operating profit / (loss) is Rs (5.97) crores as against Rs (1.86 ) crores in the previous year.

profit / (loss) before taxation is Rs (179.91) crores as against Rs (489.00) crores in the previous year.

profit / (loss) after tax is Rs (179.91) crores as against Rs (489.00) crores in the previous year.

the company has incurred substantial losses due to non operation of all the manufacturing units and day to day administrative expenses. Interest for the year on funds borrowed has been debited till June, 2014 and subsequently the company has not debited interest on borrowed funds as accounts of the company had turned npA in the earlier years. this has led to lower losses to the extent of Rs. 395.84 crores.

Due to change in the method of depreciation as required by the Companies Act, 2013, the useful life of assets are recomputed on 01.04.2014 and the assets whose useful life has expired amounting of Rs. 3,11,76,027/- has been transferred to the opening balance of retained earnings. Also due to change in method of depreciation, the depreciation for the year is higher by Rs. 20,00,92,023/- in the Statement of profit & loss Account leading to higher losses to similar extent.

Further as suspension of manufacturing activities has taken place in all the manufacturing units, no production has taken place (except generation of power in Wind Mills) there are indications which suggest impairment in the value of plant and machineries and other fixed assets of the company, for which the management is in process of getting the study carried out.

Further one of the wind mill was under break down for most part of the year.

During the year ended 31.03.2012 the net worth of the company had eroded and the company had become Sick Industrial Company as per the provisions of Sick Industrial Companies (Special provision) Act 1985 (SICA) and the Company was required to make reference with the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR). necessary compliances had been made in accordance with the provision of SICA and reference of the company registered with Hon'ble BIFR as Case no. 67/2012 was intimated vide letter no. 3(R-4)/BC/2012 dated 21st November 2012 by the ld.

Subsequently the matter was in AAIFR appeal no. 78 / 2014 dtd. 11.04.2014 and AAIFR set aside the impugned order and remand the matter back to BIFR with direction to consider the submission of all the parties and pass order afresh after giving specific finding through a reasoned order.

2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Future of Indian steel industry looks encouraging due to reasonable GDp growth of India as we have a stable government at the Centre.

Major issues that have been affecting adversely the steel industry have been availability of Iron ore & Coal. Iron ore availability has improved due to opening up of iron ore mines and drop in international prices.

International prices of both Coking coal and Steam coal has come down substantially which will help the bottom line of the steel industry.
