Your Company does not accept or hold any fixed deposits within the meaning of Section 73 of the Companies Act, 2013 and the rules made there under and as such, no amount on account of principal or interest on fixed deposits was outstanding as on date of the Balance Sheet.

Fixed Deposits with Euram Bank:

a. In 2010 the Company made a GDR Issue of an amount of USD 71.1 mn and deposited the proceeds in a Bank Account with European American Investment Bank AG, Vienna (EURAM Bank). Advisors to the Company who planned and coordinated various functions during to the GDR Issue obtained operational control of our Bank Accounts with EURAM Bank ostensibly to make payments to the intermediaries of the GDR Issue. We were eventually informed that control of the Bank Accounts passed on to one Vintage FZE (now known as Alta Vista International FZE). The Company later discovered that without its knowledge or approval, amounts aggregating USD 15.6 mn were transferred from the Company''s Vienna Bank Account to the Bank Account of Company''s wholly-owned subsidiary in the UAE (FZE). Further, the Company also discovered that a nearly identical amount was transferred from FZE''s Bank Account to entities with which neither the Company nor the FZE has any business relationship. When we made inquiries with Vintage FZE, the company promised to return the funds, but we have not received any funds so far. Pending recovery by FZE and their onward remittance back to the Company, these amounts have been shown by the FZE as "Amounts payable to Farmax India Limited" on the Liabilities side and the "amounts receivable from suppliers" on the assets side. Reflecting this treatment, the Company also showed this amount as receivable from FZE. Despite repeated efforts, FZE is unable to recover any of these monies so far and is planning to initiate legal action to recover the funds. However, in line with the prudential accounting principles, in the Statements of Accounts for the year March 31, 2013, these amounts have been written off by FZE without prejudice to the right to recover these amounts. Due to the above reason the money receivable from FZE has also become unrecoverable. Therefore, following prudential accounting principles, the Company has also written off the amount receivable from its wholly- owned UAE subsidiary. Notwithstanding this accounting treatment, based on legal opinion, the Company is confident of recovering the amounts. Company has also filed a criminal complaint against Mr. Arun Panchariya the then Managing Director of (now known as Alta Vista International FZE) at that time and other suspects in the matter in the Medchal Court of Rangareddy vide S.R No. 7751 of 2013 dated 18.10.2013 and an FIR was issued in the matter vide FIR No. 664/2013 dated 29.10.2013 in Dundigal Police Station

b. As for the remaining amount of USD 56.6 million (equivalent to Rs. 2515.62 million as per the exchange rates prevalent at the time) on deposit with EURAM Bank, the Company, in August 2012, received a letter from EURAM Bank claiming that the remaining amount had been seized to repay a third party loan to the same Vintage FZE (now known as Alta Vista International FZE) pursuant to a Pledge Agreement alleged to have been executed by the Company with EURAM Bank. The Company did not authorize or execute any such Pledge Agreement and was not aware of any loan from Euram Bank to Vintage FZE. Pending the recovery of the amounts and without prejudice to its rights, the Company has written off the amounts, in line with the prudential accounting principles.

The Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, based on the financial statements received from subsidiary of the Company, as approved by their respective Board of Directors have been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard (AS) 21 - Consolidated Financial Statements, Accounting Standard (AS) 23 - Accounting for Investments in Associates and Accounting Standard (AS) 27 - Financial Reporting of interest in Joint Ventures in consolidated financial statement notified under Section 211 (3C) of the Companies Act, 1956, read with the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (as amended). The said consolidated financial statements form part of this Annual Report and Accounts.

Standalone Financial Results:

On standalone basis, your Company has registered revenue of Rs. 1778.33 Lakhs as against Rs. 5229.67 Lakhs in the previous year. During the year under review the net loss of the Company stood at Rs. 884.30 Lakhs as against Rs. 12731.52 Lakhs in the previous financial year.

Dividend on Equity Shares:

Keeping in view the losses incurred by the Company, your Directors have decided not to recommend any dividend for the year under review.

Fixed Deposits:

Your Company does not accept or hold any fixed deposits within the meaning of Section 58A of the Companies Act, 1956 and the rules made there under and as such, no amount on account of principal or interest on fixed deposits was outstanding as on date of the Balance Sheet.

Fixed Deposits with Euram Bank:

a. In 2010 the Company made a GDR Issue of an amount of USD 71.1 mn and deposited the proceeds in a Bank Account with European American Investment Bank AG, Vienna (EURAM Bank). Advisors to the Company who planned and coordinated various functions during to the GDR Issue obtained operational control of our Bank Accounts with EURAM Bank ostensibly to make payments to the intermediaries of the GDR Issue. We were eventually informed that control of the Bank Accounts passed on to one Vintage FZE (now known as Alta Vista International FZE). The Company later discovered that without its knowledge or approval, amounts aggregating USD 15.6 mn were transferred from the Company''s Vienna Bank Account to the Bank Account of Company''s wholly- owned subsidiary in the UAE (FZE). Further, the Company also discovered that a nearly identical amount was transferred from FZE''s Bank Account to entities with which neither the Company nor the FZE has any business relationship. When we made inquiries with Vintage FZE, the company promised to return the funds, but we have not received any funds so far. Pending recovery by FZE and their onward remittance back to the Company, these amounts have been shown by the FZE as "Amounts payable to Farmax India Limited" on the Liabilities side and the "amounts receivable from suppliers" on the assets side. Reflecting this treatment, the Company also showed this amount as receivable from FZE. Despite repeated efforts, FZE is unable to recover any of these monies so far and is planning to initiate legal action to recover the funds. However, in line with the prudential accounting principles, in the Statements of Accounts for the year March 31,2013, these amounts have been written off by FZE without prejudice to the right to recover these amounts. Due to the above reason the money receivable from FZE has also become unrecoverable. Therefore, following prudential accounting principles, the Company has also written off the amount receivable from its wholly-owned UAE subsidiary. Notwithstanding this accounting treatment, based on legal opinion, the Company is confident of recovering the amounts. Company has also filed a criminal complaint against Mr. Arun Panchariya the then Managing Director of (now known as Alta Vista International FZE) at that time and other suspects in the matter in the Medchal Court of Rangareddy vide S.R No. 7751 of 2013 dated 18.10.2013 and an FIR was issued in the matter vide FIR No. 664/2013 dated 29.10.2013 in Dundigal Police Station

b. As for the remaining amount of USD 56.6 million (equivalent to Rs. 2515.62 million as per the exchange rates prevalent at the time) on deposit with EURAM Bank, the Company, in August 2012, received a letter from EURAM Bank claiming that the remaining amount had been seized to repay a third party loan to the same Vintage FZE (now known as Alta Vista International FZE) pursuant to a Pledge Agreement alleged to have been executed by the Company with EURAM Bank. The Company did not authorize or execute any such Pledge Agreement and was not aware of any loan from Euram Bank to Vintage FZE. The Company has retained legal counsel in Austria to initiate legal action to recover the amount EURAM Bank seized to satisfy the third party loan. Pending the recovery of the amounts and without prejudice to its rights, the Company has written off the amounts, in line with the prudential accounting principles. Accordingly, in the previous year, the balance of USD 56.6 million (equivalent to Rs. 2515.62 million as per the exchange rates prevalent at the time) on deposit with EURAM Bank was written off with a corresponding decrease in the securities premium account. Notwithstanding this accounting treatment, based on legal opinion, the Company is confident of recovering the amounts.

DISTRIBUTION/DEALER NET-WORK, COST ADVANTAGE AND MARKET PENETRATION:

Main idea of your Company is to provide the FMCG products at affordable rates to the lower middle class and low income groups which consists more than 60% country population. At the same time the Company is not compromising at Quality of the product with any other leading branded product. Farmax is able to provide its products at much lower price than leading branded products with the same Quality by saving huge advertisement and other marketing overheads which generally the Multi National FMCG Companies incur. Another main cost saving factor is the dealer net-work of the Company which has been a flat form for the Company to launch its products without any major advertisement and other costs. Farmax has been launching various FMCG products from time to time into the market. One important point to note that all the products of the Company are successful at the first point itself.

Farmax has successfully penetrated into rural markets particularly in the southern states ofAndhra Pradesh and Tamilnadu and has a total dealer net-work ofmore than 650 across the country. Presently the Company has spread its distributory net-work across the countryin13 States.

Farmax is primarily aiming at creating distribution network which is a basic need to any FMCG company for successfully launching its products. Farmaxs dealer net-work is very strong enough to launch any products of the Company into the market with in a short span without incurring any major advertisement campaign.

ISSUE OF SHARES:

As you are aware that during the year under review your Company has issued and allotted 53,43,000 equity shares out of which 40,00,000 equity shares were allotted to the shareholders of Farmax Health & Food Products Private Limited in pursuance of scheme of Amalgamation as sanctioned by the Honble High Court of Andhra Pradesh and 13,43,000 shares were allotted at a price of Rs.50/- per share (including premium of Rs.40/- per share) on preferential basis out of which 6,43,000 shares were allotted for cash consideration and remaining were allotted for a consideration for acquisition of assetsofM/s. Obex Hygienic Products.

FUTURE PLANS:

Your Company having very strong dealer net-work all over Andhra Pradesh and is in the process of expanding and strengthening its net-work to other states as well as in the existing states. Already started appointing dealers in various places with an aim to cover 70% to 80% area of southern India in the next 2 to 3 years. By doing this the Company is aiming to increase its sales by 15 to 20 folds from present level. This is also very cost effective and creates a rapport between the marketer and manufacturer to know the taste of consumer and make the changes in the products. The Company is also planning to create one plat-form to maintain distribution chain with major dealers to spread the productsof the Company to other areas.

As stated elsewhere the Company is in the process of launching various new products (about 10 products) in the market in the current and next financial years. Altogether the Companys product range takes to 22 to 25. To launch these products the Company got the market surveyed and test market of the product in various places to know the opinion and tastes of consumer. Basing on the reports the Company made some changes in the specifications of the product and made them to launch inthe market shortly.

Your Company is also planning to establish retail net-work in a big way by setting-up exclusive shops for the products of the Company through the dealers mainly in semi- urban and rural areas aiming the lower middle class and low income groups who can not afford Multi-National Companies branded products. For this the Company made a plan to open 50 to 100 retail outlets to market exclusively the Companys products in collaboration with local dealers/ shop owners with an understanding exclusively to market the Companys products in the segments where the products of the Company are available.

Your Company is planning to deploy about Rs.50 to Rs.70 Crores in the next 2 to 3 years to establish 50 to 100 retail shops and expand the existing production capacities to market exclusively the Companys product range.

Besides, Farmax is also looking at contract manufacturing as there is huge demand from the MNCs and big retailers due to cost advantages. Big retail shopping malls are giving good scope to the small players to launch their products in the market with minimal cost. Keeping in view this as and when the new plants are setup, the Company has been setting-up with maximum capacities as the differential cost is very minimum for the low capacity and high capacity machine.
