|
| Report

tonnes of Clinker and 473,508 tonnes of cement was produced against the |
|
| revised
target of 473,343 / 517,957 tonnes respectively during the year 1996-97. |
|
|
| MARKETING |
|
|
| The
Company sold 481,304 tonnes of cement during the year against revised |
|
| target
of 517,957 tonnes. |
|
|
| PRICING
POLICY |
|
|
| Mustehkam
Cement Limited being the only state owned company in the North has |
|
| to
align its sales policy with the cement industry in the neighbourhood. During
the year |
|
| under
report, cement industry in the area went into unhealthy price war.
Resultantly |
|
| booking
price of cement was frequently reduced. Against booking price of Rs. 3,900.00
per |
|
| tonne
as on 13-06-1996 our booking price as on 23-05-1997 was Rs. 3,360.00 per
tonne |
|
| which
remained uptill 30-06-1997. |
|
|
| FINANCIAL |
|
|
| Average
ex-factory price of cement was Rs. 3,621.65 per tonne and average |
|
| retention
price to the company after deduction of excise duty, sales tax and SCCP
cement |
|
| surcharge
was Rs.1,925.85 per tonne against the cost to make and sell of Rs. 2,288.39 |
|
| per
tonne during the year. Retention price during the last year was Rs.1,889.39
per tonne |
|
| against
the cost to make and sell of Rs.1,828.67 per tonne. Manufacturing cost has |
|
| increased
mainly due to increase in the price of furnace oil raising it from Rs.
4,914.71 per |
|
| tonne
as on 23-05-1996 to Rs. 6,735.64 per tonne as on 05-12-1996 and Rs. 6,366.48
per |
|
| tonne
as on 04-02-1997. Operational loss for the fiscal period was Rs. 174.494
million and |
|
| after
addition of revenue/other income of Rs. 6.970 million, the company sustained
a net |
|
| loss
for the year amounting to Rs.167.524 million. |
