dividend

Owing to the loss incurred dunrtgHhe year, your Company did not consider it prudent to recommend any dividend for the year under review. - ¦

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

The operating results of the current year were negatively impacted owing to the following reasons:-

I. The Company is not carrying out any tea manufacturing activity at its unit located in Ooty, Tamilnadu, since August,2008, due, to the fact that the Tea Board oi: k«Ka has revoked the factorys registration under the provisions of Tea (Marketing) Control Order, 2003 issued underlie provisions of thejea Act, 1953.

II. The Company, therefore, decided to change its business model from manufacturing to trading in tea. Moreover m order to generate Working Capital as well as reduce Borrowings, the Board decided to sell, lease or otherwse dispose of - a) the residual land of 6.95 acres including the tea factory at Ooty along with all fixed assets such as plant, machinery, estate and development, etc. which are directly or indirectly required to run the factory, and b) the Corporate Office Building of the Company at Kolkata. The proposal had been duly approved by Shareholders under Section 293(1 )(a) by means of Postal Ballot in December, 2008. The sale is yet to be finalized.

Loss of Turnover and under-recovery of expenses, including depreciation and interest, resulted in high operating losses.

ACTION PLAN

In 2010-11, action plan has been put in place to ensure that costs are reduced, turnover enhanced and over-all margin increased:-

- As had been mentioned in the previous year, out of the 46.95 acres of land owned and occupied by the tea division of the Company at its Ooty factory, such portion of the vacant land measuring approximately 40 acres, with a little more or less, which was unutilized and unproductive is in the process of being sold for which shareholders approval has been obtained by the Company. Your Company has till October 2009, received an advance of about Rs. 868.20 lacs. Owing to the downturn in the Real Estate market the buyer is unable to finalize the Sale but it is expected that the transaction will be completed at the earliest. At the same time, your Company is endeavouring to finalize the sale of the Companys Head Office Building in Kolkata as well as the Factory at Ooty. Once these transactions are completed the liquidity position of the Company will improve substantially and the business model of trading can start in full swing.

SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS

The shareholders might recall that during the previous year it was reported that the sale of approximately 40 acres of unutilized and unproductive land at Ooty factory, for which shareholders approval had already been obtained earlier, was expected to bs concluded within the year 2010-11. But due to the sudden economic downturn the sale could not be completed. Your directors are hopeful of completing the deal during the current year.

Besides the above, shareholders approval was also obtained through postal ballot means to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of a) the factory including land of approximately 6.95 acres at Ooty, and b) the Corporate Office at Kolkata. Your directors are hopeful of completing the deal during the current year.

Upon completion of the above transactions the liquidity position of the Company will improve substantially and the business model of trading can start in full swing.
