CURRENT YEAR PERFORMANCE

The turnover of the Company has increased from Rs. 784.07 Lakhs to Rs. 885.99 Lakhs in current financial year but the other income has decreased to Rs. 5.86 Lakhs from Rs. 7.98 Lakhs in current year.

The Company failed to achieve targeted results as the product is an Agriculture product and mainly depended on Government policies and its demand is seasonal. Earlier many subsidies were provided by State Government but now the schemes of subsidies are modified by the Government and also the percentage of the Subsidies has decreased considerably. The cost of Raw material and Transportation Cost has increased and at the same time the price of product was decreased so Company could not reach at desired results. Also the tenders floated by Government were very less and Company could not encash the floated tenders.
