CHAIRMAN'S REVIEW
In 1936 a group of local businessmen based in Newnaham Road, Bombay Bazaar, got together to
form Hindustan Safe Deposit Company Limited. They purchased a plot on Mcleod Road
(which now houses Habib Credit & Exchange Bank) and constructed a building for housing safe
deposit vaults. The first investments of the Company were in Tata Iron and Steel and India Iron
and Steel arbitrage. In 1950, the name of the Company was changed from "Hindustan Safe
Deposit Co. Ltd." to "Security Safe Deposit Co. Ltd.".
In 1964 Mr. Rafique Saigol, Mr. Shafique Saigol and Mr. Agha Hasan Abedi were inducted on
the Board of Directors and thus the management of the Company changed hands. In 1974 net
profit of the Company dwindled due to a slump in the Stock Exchange, since the majority of
lockerholders were stockbrokers. In 1980 a resolution was approved to sell the property of the
Company on I.I.Chundrigar Road for Rs 2.5m to BCCI. At the time the building was sold 1,238
out of 4,336 lockers, were still occupied.
Mr. Nazir Ahmad Jajvi, a nominee of SLIC in an AGM held on 30th August, 1981, enquired
about the justification of investment of Rs 1,962,984 in the shares of Mohib Textile Mills
Limited. Mr. Rafique Saigol explained that "although Mohib Textiles had accumulated loss of Rs
20.8m upto 30th Sept., 1979, it had a lot of profit potential". Some minority shareholders present
in the meeting however expressed their views that the transaction regarding the purchase of these
shares should be reversed. In July 1985 at the 50th AGM the Chairman regretted that the
dividend could not be declared due to losses and that the Directors had not identified any new
business for the Company.
On 6th June, 1995 the Management of the Company was passed on to AKD group. At the time of
the take-over the Company had a negative networth of Rs 510,189. I am pleased to report to the
shareholders that by the grace of Almighty Allah today your company's networth is Rs
1,592,776, net asset value per share of Rs 10.72 rising from a negative net worth of Rs 3.43, an
increase of Rs 14.15.
It was decided by your Board of Directors to establish the Company's presence in the Lockers
and the Custody business. To achieve this goal a modest investment was made in Lockers, while
the Company is being built up business arrangements have also been made with commercial
banks in the vicinity to avail their locker facilities for our Custody department. During the year
Mr. Shakil Ahmad Khan joined us as Head of Custody Operations. Mr. Khan brings with him
rich and extensive experience in the Custody and related areas. Prior to joining us he was Head
of Global Custody at Citibank. I am happy to report that the Custody business has started
yielding results.
Your directors had applied to CLA for amendment in objects of the Memorandum of the
Company. The permission for change in the Objects clause was received on 5th June 1996. The
name of the Company was changed on 13th August 1996 from Security Safe Deposit Co. Ltd., to
AKD Securities and Safe Deposit Co. Ltd. Under the new objects the Company can enter the
share brokerage business. The Board had announced a 46:1 rights issue last year pending
approval from the CLA. However, as the permission from CLA for change in the Objects was
only received towards the end of the financial year and at a time when the Stock Exchange was
in a deep recession, it was decided to delay the book closure.
Our focus for the next year is very much on value-facturing through introduction of new
products. We hope to achieve even better results in the future. I thank the Company's
Management, Executives, and Staff for their efforts and valuable contributions to the affairs of
the Company.
