We continued Cotton and Paddy seed production for few years. However last year that activity was also closed. Keeping in view the vast opportunities available in the Real Estate and Infrastructure field, it was then decided to venture into these areas. Accordingly the main objects of the Company were changed through Postal Ballot. We also applied to Registrar of Companies for change of name to suit the new business line of the Company.

MANAGEMENT REVIEW ANALYSIS

The company had made its name in the agriculture sector. With the change of business line the company is now in the process of venturing into real estate and infrastructure sector. Your company has a good exposure in the real estate market and has considerable landed assets in Aurangabad. The real estate market, although dull at this juncture has a tremendous scope of growth. We as a company plan to venture into this sector to reap operational benefits in future.

i. OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS The real estate market is open to strategic opportunities but then it is also prone to the ups and downs from time to time. We are entering in this area at a time when the market is undergoing a slow down. Our asset base would be well placed at this juncture to catch the upside in the coming few years. Also, as management the company is well placed with competent persons to encash the future opportunities while keeping the inherent risks under check.

ii. SEGMENTATION OR PRODUCT-WISE PERFORMANCE The Company would only be dealing in the real estate business from this year onwards and hence would be reported as one segment.

iii. OUTLOOK, RISK AND CONCERNS The main risk in the real estate and infrastructure industry is high cost of construction and variable demand from time to time. The Company feels that with the large asset base available at its disposal and also with competent management, the company would be able to face the situation better in future. There is an opportunity to accelerate growth in the real estate sector which has remained stagnant for over past few years.

iv. INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY There is adequate internal control system in the company through internal audit and regular operational reviews.

v. DEVELOPMENT IN HUMAN RESOURCES / INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS FRONT During the year a number of key HR initiatives were taken up to link business objectives with employee performance.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE AND OUTLOOK

The turnover of the Company during the financial year was Rs 2360.78 Lacs as against last year's 1591 Lacs. The Company is positive about its future growth.

MANAGEMENT REVIEW ANALYSIS

i. INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

Agriculture remains a pivotal part of the Indian Economy despite the emergence of other sectors and decreasing GDP Share. The Agri-inputs industry produces products that provide essential support to modern agriculture. The Seed is one of the most crucial inputs in agricultural production.

We continued to play a dominant role in the seed industry & the Company is now dealing in all types of Hybrid seeds. We have been in this business since inception and have made tremendous inroads in the seeds markets.

The main stay of the company is cotton seed, for which we have already developed a Bt Seed, suitable for Indian Markets.

ii. OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

The company had been majoring on cotton seed over the last few years. However, we have now begun to concentrate on other crops, especially Paddy and then subsequently wheat thereby changing the product mix of the company. We have also been concentrating on Research & Development, with a focus to release new hybrid seeds every 2-3 years. With the growing seed industry, the company is all poised to reap rich dividends.

The monsoon factor plays a very important role in the seed industry, basically because majority of the agrarian society of the nation is dependent on rains. This factor has played a significant role in the past and would continue to be a factor for future too.

iii. SEGMENTATION OR PRODUCT-WISE PERFORMANCE

Although the Company deals in research of various types of hybrid seeds, the seed as such is a single product, and hence is reported as one segment. However, we keep a track on the product performances and apart from Cotton; Paddy & Wheat have also been performing well.

iv. OUTLOOK, RISK AND CONCERNS

The main risk in the seed industry is erratic monsoon, which is beyond control. The Company feels that with the modernization in Irrigation systems, the seed industry would be able to face the situation better in future. There is an opportunity to accelerate growth in the farming sector which has remained stagnant for over past two decades.

However, several other factors like floods, drought and macro economic factors like demand and supply of end products will have an impact on this industry.

v. INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY

There is adequate internal control system in the company through internal audit and regular operational reviews.

vi. DEVELOPMENT IN HUMAN RESOURCES / INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS FRONT

During the year a number of key HR initiatives were taken up to link business objectives with employee performance. The human resources of the Company are adequately motivated to work towards optimal performance. The industrial relations are also cordial.

MANAGEMENT REVIEW ANALYSIS

i. INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT Agriculture remains a pivotal part of the Indian Economy despite the emergence of other sectors and decreasing GDP Share. The Agri-inputs industry produces products that provide essential support to modern agriculture. Seed is one of the most crucial input in agricultural production.

We continued to play a dominant role in the seed industry & the Company is now dealing in all types of Hybrid seeds. We have been in this business since inception and have made tremendous inroads in the seeds markets.

The main stay of the company is cotton seed, for which we have already developed a Bt Seed, suitable for Indian Markets.

ii. OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS The company had been majoring on cotton seed over the last few years. However, we have now begun to concentrate on other crops, especially Paddy and then subsequently wheat thereby changing the product mix of the company. We have also been concentrating on Research & Development, with a focus to release new hybrid seeds every 2-3 years. With the growing seed industry, the company is all poised to reap rich dividends.

The monsoon factor plays a very important role in the seed industry, basically because majority of the agrarian society of the nation is dependent on rains. This factor has played a significant role in the past and would continue to be a factor for future too.

iii. SEGMENTATION OR PRODUCT-WISE PERFORMANCE Although the Company deals in research of various types of hybrid seeds, the seed as such is a single product, and hence is reported as one segment. However, we keep a track on the product performances and apart from Cotton, Paddy and Wheat have also been performing well.

iv. OUTLOOK, RISK AND CONCERNS The main risk in the seed industry is erratic monsoon, which is beyond control. The Company feels that with the modernization in Irrigation systems, the seed industry would be able to face the situation better in future. There is an opportunity to accelerate growth in the farming sector which has remained stagnant for over past two decades.

However, several other factors like floods, drought and macro economic factors like demand and supply of end products will have an impact on this industry.

v. INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY There is adequate internal control system in the company through internal audit and regular operational reviews.

vi. DEVELOPMENT IN HUMAN RESOURCES / INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS FRONT During the year a number of key HR initiatives were taken up to link business objectives with employee performance. The human resources of the Company are adequately motivated to work towards optimal performance. The industrial relations are also cordial.
