Review of Financial Performance.

The operating loss before interest and depreciation for the year under review was Rs.15103.60 lacs. As reported in the Annual Report last year, the Sugar mill at Ambasamudram could not be operated due to non-availability of sugar cane. As a consequence the 50MW power plant had to run using coal as fuel instead of bagasse which was not available from the Sugar factory due to its shut down.

During the year under review the 50 MW power plant could generate 11,69,10,500 Units upto November 2014 and the same become non operational due to working capital crunch.

During the year under review Naidupet Sugar plant crushed 187588 MTs of cane and produced 16630.60 MTs of sugar and achieved a recovery rate of 8.86% as against 8.96% in the previous year.

The IAP plant has produced 56,19,693 litres of ENA during the year under review.

Feature Outlook

Naidupet Unit:

The Sugar Plant which normally crushes 3.00 lac MT to 4.00 lac MT of Sugar cane is dependent on availability of cane. The Sugar industry prospects and economic scenario are the deciding factors in future to enhance sugar production.

IAP : The production of ENA in future is lucrative given the blending options of ENA with petrol and other fuel elements, are being contemplated by the Government of India.

Ambasamudram Unit:

Due to non-availability of sugar cane in and around Ambasamudram, the chances to restart the crushing operations poses challenge.

Power: As working capital requirements are not available, the generation of electricity is affected.

However the Company is confident to resume electricity generation soon.

Dividend.

Being referred to BIFR and in view of losses in the successive years from FY 2012, the Company is unable to declare any dividend.

The paid up share capital of the Company is 41972900 equity shares of Rs.10 each. The share application money of Rs.140.36 crs remains unallotted in favour of the holding company namely Empee Distilleries Ltd due to non-obtainment of statutory approvals.
