Review of Company''s Performance

The company continued with the horticulture operations during the year. Production of colour capsicum continued till May, 2013. Thereafter we started to produce only green capsicum. The life of the green houses are over and it got damaged due to storm and rain. The total production of colour capsicum and green capsicum during the year was 7.47 MT and 17.64 MT respectively. We have also cultivated vegetables and Golden Rod in the open space available at the factory premises. The rental income of godowns was Rs. 79.41 lacs during the year. The rental income will continue to be a recurring source of revenue in the coming years.

Management Discussion and Analysis

a) Industry structure and developments

The Company has existing infrastructure readily available for undertaking suitable manufacturing activity in future.

b) Opportunities & threats

The future of horticulture industries remains bright, but the extreme weather conditions and poor quality of water available in our factory premises continue to be a threat.

c) Segment-wise/Product-wise performance

During the year, the income from horticulture was Rs. 6.71 lacs. The total production of Capsicum was 25.11 MT. While turnover from horticulture division decreased from Rs.6.89 lacs to Rs.6.71 lacs, the overall profit also decreased from Rs. 71.59 lacs to Rs. 58.10 lacs. This was mainly due to the loss of Rs. 15,99,600/- on sale of entire share holding of wholly owned subsidiary - Madhusudan Fiscal Limited during the year. This loss is shown as exceptional item. Madhusudan Fiscal Limited has now ceased to be a subsidiary or a group company and hence no consolidated accounts are prepared as on 31st March, 2014.

d) Outlook

The Company has decided to continue growing Green Capsicum and vegetables in open areas.

e) Risks and concerns

It is a challenging task to market the horticulture products as the commodity is a perishable item and the market is volatile. We supply our produce directly to the main Vendor.

f) Internal control system and their adequacy

The Company has computerized its accounting system since many years. The system of internal control of the Company is commensurate with the size and complexity of the Company''s business. The operations are subject to periodic internal audit by independent Auditors.

g) Financial performance with respect to Operational Performance is discussed in the main part of the report.

h) Material development in Human Resources/Industrial Relations

The Company values and nurtures its human resources and Company would continue to adopt and implement the best HRD practices in future.
