PERFORMANCE AND REVIEW

As the un-stability of global market has badly hit the oil industry across the nation and your company is also one of the victims of said un-stabi!ity. Due to adverse local market conditions and volatility in global market, the year under review was of poor performance for the Company as the turnover of company declined to Rs.99.12 Crores as compared to Rs 131 30 Crores in the last year and the losses mount up to Rs 14.92 crores during the year as compared to Rs.4 .19 crores during the last year.

FUTURE PROSPECTS

Your Directors are exploring avenues to over come the present situation and are instrumental in arranging some sort of amalgamation, joint venture or collaboration to bring the company on track. One of the biggest problems for the oil refinery unit like us is lesser ability to compete with the units operating at the port areas where due to no or lesser transportation cost, the total cost of refining is the lower and these units enjoy an edge in refining at low gost and selling the material at more competitive rates. However, after some arrangement and with the operational of plant at full capacity, your company would certainly be able to get rid of this situation.

The company had recently added the capacities of refining and now it is having total capacities Of 750 MT per day, but it is short of funds and working capital. Once these capacities will be fully utilized the economies of scale will happen which will put the company at par with other competing units Besides, if your company is able to bring the material through Railway in one go then it wouldbe having an edge over the port based units.

DIVIDEND

Keeping in view the present constraints, Your Directors express their inability to recommend any dividend for the year under review.
