REVIEW OF OPERATIONS:
The industry of hire purchase and lease finance is in a very bad shape
with increased competition and lack of support. Even the segment of
mortgage and real estate loans has become non-profitable with difficulty
in the collection of the installments. With great difficulty the company
could collect the installments which are utilised for reduction of
secured liabilities. Concentration has been made in collection of Hire
purchase and Loan Installments which are classified as NPA's and there
has been satisfactory result on the same. Hence, there has been a very
marginal profit during the year under consideration.

Non-Convertible Debentures during the year. The Company has neither
