OPERATIONS
During the period under review, your company has achieved a turnover of
Rs. 783.58 lacs as compared to the Rs. 1560.96 lacs made during the 15
months period ending 30.06.01, thus recording a fall of 16.35% over its
past performance. There was stiff competition in the industry from the
unorganized sector and the company faced some problems in competing
with them during the period under review and hence the fall in the
sales.
The Company has reduced its operational costs substantially during the
last 2 months of the period under review to enable itself to compete on
the price front and this will show result in the next financial year.
The Company, In order to compete in the international market, got
itself accredited with ISO 9002 certification during the period under
review,
The Company was unable to service the Term loan Funded by the
Industrial Bank of india (IDBI) due to non- availability of profits.
IDBI has been levying further interest and liquidated damages on the
overdue amounts. These amounts, which were not accounted for in the
earlier years, were now accounted for as 'Prior Period Expenditure'.
Also a portion of the Book debts and stocks sent to C & As outstanding
as on 31,03.01, which were considered as irrecoverable, amounting to Rs
99.67 lacs were written off during the period under review
The Company has embarked upon a Brand building exercise during the
financial years 1997-98, 1998-99 and 1999-00 and has incurred an amount
of Rs. 82,384,825/-. The nature of this expenditure is purely revenue
and is on account of Advertisement, Salaries to marketing staff and
other promotional expenditure. The Company expected some benefits and
price advantages over its competitors with this Brand building
exercise. However, the Company could not build up its brand name and it
further experienced that, no such benefit is accruing to the Company in
terms of price or otherwise due to the market conditions and cutthroat
competition on price front from unorganized sector.
The Directors now, feel that no benefit is also likely to accrue in the
future years and hence decided to write off the Product development
expenditure to the Profit & Loss account in 3 years instead of 5 years
as decided earlier. Accordingly previous years' adjustment is also
accounted for in this year.
PROJECTIONS Vs PERFORMANCE
As required by the Clause 43 of the listing agreement, no comparison of
the actual financial results for 2000 - 2001 can be made as there were

MARKET AND FUTURE OUTLOOK
Our Company has continued to put in all the efforts to build up its
share for a strong market presence. The demand for the health care
products is on the rise, due to the increased awareness of the threat
posed by deadly diseases like AIDS, Hepatitis-B etc.., in the general
public. There is no dearth for the market of the Company's products.
The Company has established itself as one of the leading 5 players in
the country in this field. As the company has to sell its products at a
much lower prices, because of the cut stiff competition from the
unorganised sector, there was a loss in this period under review.
The Company, however, has cut down its operating costs substantially,
during the last 2 months and this will show result in the coming
financial year.
The Company could not meet the Export target because of the new EXIM
policy, wherein the DEPB benefit was reduced to 8% from 20%. The
Directors are also happy to inform that, the Export order from Jeddah,
Saudi Arabia was renewed and the Company expects to export 1 million IV
sets during the next fiscal year. Also the Company's deal with the
German multinational, B-Braun was finalised for supply of around 1/2 a
million IV sets and the first consignment is expected to be dispatched
by the end of August '2001
There was a decrease in the threat posed by the unorganised sector, due
to the growing awareness in the public, of the health hazards in using
a sub-standard/non-branded product. Also with a substantial reduction
in its operating costs, the Company foresees a bright future in the
years to come.
SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Our Company has accorded highest priority to the safety of its
employees as well as the environment and continued to do so with
periodic audits and reviews to ensure total protection.
FIXED DEPOSITS
The Company has neither invited for nor accepted any Fixed Deposits
from the public under the provisions of Section 58A of The Companies

turnover of Rs.1560.96 lacs as compared to Rs.995.37 lacs made in
1998-99 and recorded a growth rate of 56.82% over its past performance.
Due to cutthroat competition in the industry the margins were very less
and resulted in loss of Rs.188.72 lacs as compared to a loss of
Rs.88.56 in the previous year.

The adverse variation in profitability is due to cut throat competition
and general recession in the economy.
MARKET AND FUTURE OUTLOOK
Your Company continued its sincere efforts in brand building through
its strong market force. During the period the raw material prices
have gone up substantially. However we could not increase our selling
price correspondingly due to the cut throat competition in the industry
thereby resulting in loss. During the year export turnover was not
achieved as targeted due to reduction in DEPB benefit from 20% to 8% of
FOB value of exports by DGFT. However we got our brand registered with
DGFT thereby getting 20% DEPB benefit. We are very happy to inform you
that we have already received an export order from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
for 2 million IV Sets to be supplied before January, 2001. Inquiries
from foreign customers are pouring in for our products. Your Company
has also stuck a deal with B-BRAUN, a German Company, to supply 6
million IV Sets per annum. With our quality and standards we are
hopeful of getting more such orders.

MARKET AND FUTURE OUTLOOK
The Company's sustained efforts and marketing strategies have helped the Company face the competition from the unorganised sector and establish a brand image for itself. The brand building exercise taken up through advertisement campaigns, educating the end user about the importance of hygenic products has now started showing results. However, in order to capture the market from the unorganised sector, the company was forced to keep its prices on the lower side, thereby cutting into its profit margins. To improve the bottom line, it has been decided to increase the product range by adding more products on trading basis, which are in absolute synergy with the existing products and give value addition to the operations of the unit. The directors have identified few products for the current financial year to be marketed in the brand name "SAFTI". In the next two years, it is proposed to market the entire range of medical disposable devices under this brand.

The Company has already implemented the necessary measures to ensure
smooth functioning of all the operations, both technical and commercial

that direction. Now having established a base, the Company is confident that the benefits will accrue in the years to come.
MARKET AND FUTURE OUTLOOK
The company is in the process of establishing its product in the market, as briefed to you in the previous report. The unhealthy competition from the unorganised sector has slowed down the pace. The Company has taken up the challenge through ethical sales and mass advertisement campaign of educating the end users, about the benefits of & importance of using hygenically produced products vis-a-vis the conventionally available products. This approach has slowly started giving good results. By now the Company has established its presence all over the country and is establishing its Brand image. The Directors are confident that in the years to come the Company will perform better.

During the year under reference, the Company has set up state of art
production facilities to manufacture medical disposables like I.V. sets
and Needles with Korean collaboration. The project has been
implemented and commenced commercial production in the month of May
1996. The quality of the products is well received in the market.
However, there is a lot of competition from the unorganised sector, who
do not meet the basic quality standards and sell at a very low price.
This has effected our turnover. To face this challenge the company
has concentrated in educating the end users about safety and importance
of sterilisation and quality. We have been successful in doing so and
hope to improve the turnover in the current Financial Year.
