Opportunities and Threats

As various factors are posing constant threats and high
volatility in the Capital Markets, it appears beneficial to
diversify the portfolio to reduce the risk and insulate from
the vagaries of stock-market. Mutual Funds help to reduce
risk through diversification and professional management.
Therefore, the Company invests its surplus funds in debt/
equity oriented Mutual Funds. One of the biggest
advantages of Mutual Fund investment is Liquidity. Open-
end funds provide option to redeem on demand, which is
beneficial during rising or falling markets. The management
is exploring other avenues of business.

Outlook

The Company intends to continue focusing on capital
market activities including trading in securities and
emerging products in derivatives.

Risk and Concern

The Company is exposed to specific risks that are particular
to its business and the environment within which it
operates, including interest rate volatility, economic cycle,
credit and market risks. The Company has quoted
investments which are exposed to fluctuations in stock
prices. These investments represent a material portion of
the Company's business and are vulnerable to fluctuations
in the stock markets. Any decline in prices of the
Company's quoted investments may affect its financial
position and the results of its operations. It continuously
monitors its market exposure and tries to manage these
risks by following prudent business and risk management
practices.

Adequacy of Internal Control

The Company has a proper and adequate system of

internal control in all spheres of its activities to ensure that
all its assets are safeguarded and protected against loss
from unauthorized use or disposition and that the
transactions are authorized, recorded and reported
diligently. The Internal control is supplemented by an
effective internal audit being carried out by an external
firm of Chartered Accountants.

The Company ensures adherence to all internal control
policies and procedures as well as compliances with all
regulatory guidelines.
