OPERATION REVIEW
The global economy in the Financial Year (FY) 2012-13 improved slowly,
but was short on expectation Several
European economies experienced recession due to high unemployment,
banking fragility, fiscal tightening and sluggish growth. Deceleration
in industrial output and exports weakened India''s economic growth
significantly.
FY 2012-13 proved to be a challenging year amidst global economic
uncertainties and disturbances in many parts of the world. Despite of
these constraints and challenging environment, the company performed
reasonably well and the h highlights of the performance are as under:
a) The total income of Rs. 2100,41 lacs during the year against Rs.
2050.03 lacs during the previous year
b) The Operational Profit before interest and depreciation and interest
for the year under review if Rs. 326.21 lacs as against Rs. 352.44
lacs during the previous year.
Further during the year, SICOM Investment and Finance Limited has
subscribed for Preference shares up to . 500 lacs and Equity shares
up to Rs. 300 Lacs and appropriated subscription amount towards its
Secured Debts.
:Fate Miandis continues to face challenges on the road to sustained
recover The economic. crisis, and its ramification have accelerated the
shift of economic power. Despite of prevailing economic uncertainties,
in long- term, India continues to offer considerable opportunities
aided by its favorable demographic profile
With the dilution of Jute order by 10%, which is further expected to be
diluted by 30%r the demand for packing food grains in PP woven sacks is
going to increase substantially. During the year under review, the
Company received its first Order of Rs. 100 lacs from Director General
of Supplies and Disposals (DCS&D) in March and executed the same.
With increasing global integration, the large consumer market has
attracted global companies for their manufacturing hub f tie-up in
India. Your Company has also been associated with GRIEF, US based Bulk
Sag Manufacturer, for supply of FIBCs on job work basis to cater to
their growing demand domestically and globally. The Company is in
discussion with them on Long term investment for FIBC business.
Year ahead looks promising with subscription towards Preference and
Equity Shares from Secom Investment & Finance Limited (SIFL). Further
with the Net worth of the Company becoming positive in the current
year, the Company will be able to raise the funds for its operations at
normal banking rate of interest from nationalized bank & thereby there
wi11 be saving in the cost of finance.
With new petrochemical complexes being set us such as Hindustan Energy
Metal Limited (HEML) and expansion of existing manufacturer like
IOCI., Reliance Industries Limited, the Demand for Kraft Lined Bags is
also going to increase.
