DIRECTORS REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS
The Directors welcome the Members at the 38th Annual General Meeting of the Company and
have pleasure in presenting annual report alongwith Audited Accounts and Auditor's Report thereon,
for the year ended June 30th, 2000. The Company during the year under review sustained a loss of
Rs. 46.453 million before tax as against loss of Rs. 103.771 million during the year 1998-99. The
reasons for decrease of loss of Rs. 57.318 million was on account of higher production and sales of
cement by 49,737 tonnes and 37,669 tonnes respectively during the year as compared to last year
and reduction in cost of sales by adopting stringent measures. The performance of the Company in
terms of production and sales in the year under review is as follows:-
PRODUCTION:
It is to inform the members that the Company produced 187,487 tonnes of clinker and 348,483
tonnes of cement in the year under review. The production of the year under review is compared with
that of last year hereunder. Clinker production had been low due to kiln remained stopped for major
maintenance. However the clinker was purchased from sister concern to meet the short fall.

========== ========== ==========
Due to low demand, production was partly suspended during the year as also in last year which
resulted in under utilization of capacity. During the year, the company has continued to close a part of
the cement plant (2 Kilns of semi dry process) which represents about 50 percent of the production
capacity of clinker.
MARKETING:
During the year, less demand and more supply of cement persisted in the Country. Construction
Industry remained in poor shape. The Company continued to face difficulty in selling its products in
bulk as compared to private manufacturers due to the fierce competition from them. The Company
due to its strenuous efforts succeeded to increase the sale by 37,669 tonnes as compared to last year,
its comparative position is hereunder:-

possible to undertake BMR, however financial restructuring proposal for issuance of Shares against
loan, is under consideration at SCCP & M.O.I.P.
PROVISIONS FOR DOUBTFUL DEBTS:
The Directors consider the provision for doubtful debts as sufficient. However, the receivables
are under close scrutiny for appropriate subsequent adjustment, as a substantial amount is under
litigation for recovery and remaining amount is adjustable.
MISSIN6 ASSETS ITEMS:
Physical verification of fixed assets has been done by a Chartered Accountants firm. Few items
have been identified as missing having written down value of Rs. 57,919 which shall be written off to
rectify the situation.
PAYMENT OF DEBTS:

could be made. The Company succeeded in getting the loans rescheduled from the holding
Corporation and loan restructuring proposal is under consideration.
