Performance & Future outlook

Our economy has been going through a difficult phase. The volatile market situation has affected the overall growth of the industry. The depreciation of the rupee resulted in the increase in the price of raw materials without a corresponding increase in the selling price of the finished products. The auto sector recorded one of its worst periods in 2013. As our industry depends heavily on the auto sector, this has resulted in a 15% drop in sales.

However, the management is hopeful of a recovery of the economy and has invested in a new twin screw extruder which has increased the capacity of the unit to 2800MT per annum. This was done without taking any loans but through internal accruals. Thus the unit has been operated as debt free which has enabled it to survive the economic upheavals.

The company continues in its endeavors to widen the customer base as well as add new products to its portfolio. We are very hopeful that increased business will come during the current financial year.
