The Company has been compelled to initiate separate legal proceedings
with respect to re-possession of the statutory records including the
Books of Accounts and the Company''s premises at 7, Nagin Mahal,
Churchgate, Mumbai, from the erstwhile promoters of the company, who
have maliciously failed to handover possession thereof to the new
promoters and management of the company.
These apart, it has come to the knowledge of the management that there
are Advance Licenses which the Erstwhile Management (EWM) had got
issued from the DGFT, which are still remaining open and have
deliberately not been closed/forfeited with ulterior and malignant
purposes. The outcome of the licenses is unascertainable due to absence
of the underlying records and liability therein, as and when it arises,
shall be recovered from the EWM. The management estimates the value of
the pending advance license liability at Rs. 9,66,78,150/- which
apparently is un-surrendered. The total advance licenses issued are

AUDITED ACCOUNTS
The erstwhile management finalized and signed the Accounts for the year
ended 31st March, 2007 on 11th September, 2007 and the Statutory
Auditors viz. M/s. Contractor, Nayak & Kishnadwala, Mumbai, signed
their Report on 11th September, 2007. The new management was furnished
with a zerox copy of the said documents in October, 2007, by the
Operating Agency. The new management noticed that the said BIFR Order
dated 17th August 2007 was not given effect to and the audited Accounts
furnished to the new management by the Operating Agency did not
therefore give a true and fair view as per the provisions of the
Companies Act, 1956 and SICA. The new Chairmans discussion with the
Statutory Auditors and lengthy correspondence did not yield any new
direction on the statutory compliances by the said Auditors; the said
Auditors, in a rare indication of questionable intent and with scant
regard of the statutory and legal provisions including the Accounting
Standards issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India,
resigned as the Statutory Auditors on 2M June, 2008. Your Directors are
therefore of the Opinion that the said audited Accounts for the year
ended 31st March, 2007, in their present form, cannot be considered to
give a true and fair view of the affairs of the Company as at 31"
March, 2007. The audited Accounts of this year also would be subject to
the correctness of the Accounts of 2006-2007 and 2007 - 2008. The new
management has also been handicapped by the erstwhile promoters and
Directors not handing over the Books and the Statutory Records of the
Company. The Company has initiated the due legal process in this
regard.
OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY
The Production is on and there are 36 employees in the Company. The
management is trying its best despite all grievous impediments to run
the Company.
