viz., reduction of 32.70% in the total revenue of the Company as

for the year ended 31st March, 2015. The total dividend pay-out
excluding dividend distribution tax shall be Rs. 30.29 Lacs.

6. DEPOSITS:
Your Company has not accepted any deposits within the meaning of
Section 73 of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Companies (Acceptance of

7. FUTURE OUTLOOK :
There is cut throat competition in the chemical industry and more
particularly in dyes and intermediates. To mitigate the same,
management had adopted defensive strategy in order to maintain the
market share of your Company. At Present many policies are being
formed/adopted by the present Government which may be beneficial to the
Company in future. As crude oil prices has come down which directly
have a positive effect on the economy and in same line we expect many
more positive things to happen in the global market which may have
positive impact on the Company.
The global economy in FY 2014-15 witnessed divergent trends among major
economies. The Indian economy and business environment remained largely
subdued during 2014-15. The global economic recovery is gaining
momentum coupled with some divergence. India's economy is poised to
return to its high-growth path, thanks to lower fiscal and current
account deficits, falling inflation, low crude oil price, moderate
commodity prices, and structural reforms to boost investments. Monetary
policy is also likely to be supportive with the Reserve Bank of India
(RBI) having moved to flexible inflation targeting. The manufacturing
sector is likely to benefit from lower interest rates. However,
productivity and capital efficiency improvement are likely to drive
near-term growth. Demand from export as well as domestic markets has
not increased substantially. Volatility of rupee may hamper growth of
economy.
The Company enjoys strong exposure to the Global market. The quality
products of the Company have received warm response in the overseas
market. The thrust on the competitive strength, newer product
development and consolidation of customer relationship has resulted
into a bright future for the Company. The company expects to retain the
performance in the current year.
8. UNCLAIMED DIVIDEND:
During the year, dividend amounting to Rs. 0.52 lacs that had not been
claimed by the shareholders for the year ended 31st March, 2007, was

Future outlook
The challenges that the global economy faced in 2012-13 spilled over to
2013-14 - low growth in developed markets and slowing down of emerging
markets. The Indian economy was no different. From a GDP growth of 9.3%
in 2010-11, the Indian economy slipped to 5% growth in 2012-13 and
further down to 4.4% in 2013-14.
The economy has signaled for an upward swing. Policy stability and
consistency appear to take place in view of government at centre with
clear mandate. Capital market has also improved substantially and
bullish trend is expected to continue for a long run. Demand from
export as well as domestic markets is increasing. But volatility of
rupee and crude price may hamper growth of, particularly export
oriented units like us.
The Company enjoys strong exposure to the Global market. The quality
