optimization of product/customer mix and the combined effects of lower increase in input costs compared to increase in sales realization.

Though the prices of main raw materials - Fluorspar & Sulphur had increased steeply during the year, the Company managed to significantly improve the profitability through optimization of product mix and judicious choice of customers, new market penetration and continuous improvements in reducing the fuel and energy consumptions.

OPERATIONS AND OVERALL PERFORMANCE:

The Company''s sales performance had increased by 1 9% due to increase in sales volume and also increase in prices of main products viz., HF, Sulphuric Acid & Aluminum Fluoride. Higher sales realization in HF acid was possible due to continuous focus and penetration in PV/Specialty grade HF markets and partial pass through of increase in spar price. However, profitability has increased significantly during the year due to

These along with the ongoing initiatives and steps taken by the company during the last three years as discussed under Management Discussion and Analysis have helped in significant improvement in the operational performance of the company. Profit before depreciation, finance cost and taxation (EBIDTA) was significantly higher at Rs,20.72 Crores during the year, an increase of 42% compared to Rs,14.61 Crores in the previous year. Company continues to face stiff competition from China which affects the sales realization and margin in HF from both domestic and overseas markets. However, these were offset by the steps taken by the company as explained above.

Tight control on Working Capital, availing cheaper financing avenues and increased cash flow from operations due to improved operational performance helped in reducing the debt and overall finance cost to Rs,6.03 crores during the current financial year as compared to Rs,7.13 crores during the previous financial year. With significant reduction in debt, the Company expects further reduction in the Finance Cost during next financial year.

Total Comprehensive Income (TCI): Total Comprehensive Income for the year was significantly higher at Rs,9.38 crores during the year compared to Rs,3.24 crores during the previous year, registering an increase of 194%.

DIVIDEND:

Though the financial performance of the company had improved significantly during the year, your Directors have not recommended any dividend on equity shares for the year 2017-18 on account of inadequacy of reserves as at the end of the year due to past losses and also arrears of Dividend on 11% Redeemable Cumulative Non-Convertible Preference Shares.

TRANSFER OF UNCLAIMED DIVIDEND TO INVESTOR EDUCTION AND PROTECTION FUND

In terms of Section 125 of the Companies Act, 201 3, unclaimed or unpaid Dividend pertaining

to financial year 2010-11 is due for remittance to the Investor Education and Protection Fund established by the Central Government during the financial year 2018-19.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND FUTURE PROSPECTS:

As briefed under Management Discussion and Analysis section, the ongoing initiatives and steps taken by the company during the past few years to turn around the operations have started yielding results during last financial year and helped the company to post significant improvement in the operational performance during the current financial year also.

Your company has made further penetration in the market for its new products which had resulted in significant contribution to the revenue and bottom line of the current financial year. The company aims to further increase the market penetration of these products during the next financial year.

With the help of the ongoing and fresh initiatives proposed by the company, your Board of Directors is optimistic about further improvements in the operational performance of the company in the coming years.

The Company''s sales performance had increased by 9% at Rs. 129.01 Crores against Rs. 117.91 Crores in the previous year, due to increase in volume of its main products viz., Hydrofluoric Acid, Aluminium Fluroide and Sulphuric Acid. This was despite lower sales realization on account of stiff competition and pass through due to reduction in main raw materials.

Other operating income during the year had doubled at Rs. 4.31 Crores against Rs. 2.01 Crores during the previous year due to increase in conversion charges of IBAP on job work basis and also toll manufacturing of Poly Aluminium Chloride (PAC). PAC plant had started operation from April 2015.

Profit before depreciation, interest and taxation (EBIDTA) was higher at Rs.8.55 Crores during the year, compared to Rs.7.83 crores in the previous year despite adverse factors like higher interest rate due to poor credit rating, drop in sales realization in HF from both domestic and overseas customers due to stiff competition from China. These were offset by gains from reduction in input cost of main raw materials, fuel oil and also tight control on working capital. Infusion of Rs.5 crores in the form of Redeemable Cumulative Non-Convertible Preference Shares at the fag end of the previous financial year and proceeds from sale of vacant freehold land around Rs.4 crores had also helped in reducing the overall debt and the interest burden.

DIVIDEND:

Your Directors have not recommended any dividend for the year 2015-16 on account of accumulated losses and inadequacy of profits during the current year.

TRANSFER OF UNCLAIMED DIVIDEND TO INVESTOR EDUCTION AND PROTECTION FUND

In terms of Section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013, unclaimed or unpaid Dividend relating to the financial year 2008-2009 is due for remittance on or before 29.9.2016 to the Investor Education and Protection Fund established by the Central Government.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND FUTURE PROSPECTS:

The ongoing steps taken by the Company to turn around the operations have started yielding results. After incurring continuous losses during the second and third quarters of the financial year, the Company has registered positive Profit after Tax of Rs.0.99 crore during the last quarter of the financial year.

Further, the Company has taken several initiatives to improve its overall operational performance which includes-

- Increase in volume of HF exports to existing and new markets.

- Focus on PV grade DHF and Specialty fluorides

- Tight control on working capital to reduce overall debt.

- Increase the volume of new product developed during previous year.

- Negotiate with its key suppliers for overall reduction in the prices of key raw materials.

- Optimization of regular and contract Manpower.

HF ACID:

The higher gap between supply and demand continues on the entire value chain of HF Acid.

However, taking advantage of reduction in main raw materials and the oil prices, the company is continuously working on improving the operational efficiency to improve its competitiveness.

EXPORTS:

Export turnover was marginally higher by 3% at Rs.19.27 Crores, as compared to Rs.18.63 crores in the previous year, despite lower off take by overseas customers on account of market demand and stiff competition from China.

OPERATIONS AND OVERALL PERFORMANCE:

The Company's sales performance was maintained at the previous year's level, despite continued drop in demand for HF in domestic markets post-withdrawal of CDM benefits on R22, and stiff competition from China in the Aluminum Fluoride segment. To turn around

the operations, the Company has taken various steps to improve operational performance:

(a) Continuous focus on cost reduction

(b) Increasing vendor base and developing alternate sources for its main raw material, Fluorspar and Sulphur, to reduce input costs.

(c) Improving customer and product mix

(d) Continuously engaging with suppliers of other raw materials and packing materials for reduction in rates.

(e) Exploring market for HF in Asia Pacific and Europe.

(f) Effective utilization of working capital limits.

Profit before depreciation, interest and taxation (EBIDTA) was Rs, 7.83 crores during the year, compared to Rs, 11.12 crores in the previous year.

However, factors such as a significant depreciation of the Indian Rupee against the US Dollar, currency volatility, and higher interest outgo on working capital limits due to poor credit rating, impacted cash profits.

DIVIDEND:

As the Company has incurred loss in the current year, your Directors have not recommended any dividend for the year 2014 - 2015.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND FUTURE PROSPECTS:

The steps taken by the Company to turn around the operations as enumerated above under the heading Operations and Overall Performance, have started yielding results. After incurring continuous losses during the first three quarters of the financial year, the Company has registered improved performance during the fourth quarter and registered Profit After Tax (PAT) of Rs, 0.83 crore.

The Company is also taking steps to revive the IBAP plant and increase its viability by working on value-added products out of by-product generated during production of IBAP. Your company is also working on some other value-added products and will continue to focus on moving up the value chain in specialty products where it can have competitive advantage and grow sales volumes and margins.

Your Board of Directors is optimistic about the turnaround of the Company in the coming years.

ALUMINIUM FLUORIDE:

Your Company has strategically reduced the production of Aluminum Fluoride due to its lower contribution. However, your Company will continue to service its long-term strategic customers.

HF ACID:

The entire value chain of Fluorspar – Hydrofluoric Acid suffers due to a wide gap in supply and demand. China, which continues to enjoy the benefits of backward and forward integration in the value chain, is competing more aggressively. Capacity shifting is possible in proximity to Fluorspar sources. The withdrawal of the 10% export duty by China has added further pressure on the price of the product, both in the domestic and export markets. However, we are continuously working on improving the operational parameters in order to increase margins.

EXPORTS:

Export turnover was higher by 9% at Rs, 18.63 crores, as compared to Rs, 17.13 crores in the previous year, despite lower off take by overseas customers on account of market demand and stiff competition from China.

Your Company endeavors continuously to increase export revenues by expanding the customer base in new markets.

MATERIAL CHANGES AND COMMITMENT IF ANY:

ISSUE OF PREFERENCE SHARES::

During the year, the Company has issued and allotted 5,00,000 – 11% Redeemable Cumulative Non Convertible Preference Shares ('the Preference Shares") of face value of Rs, 100/- each for cash at par on private placement basis to M/s. Aditya Birla Chemicals (India) Limited ("ABCIL") for general corporate purposes, and also to meet the ongoing business requirements of the Company.
