4. Brief description of the Companys working during the year/State of Companys affair
The Company made reference to the Honorable BIFR in August 2003 and had been declared
sick under the provisions of SICA, 1985 vide order dated 17th May 2006. The
company made efforts and settled the dues of all the Working Capital Banks and IDBI
Financial Institution in the year 2007 through One-time-settlement of their dues.
The remaining two secured creditors, Asset Reconstruction Company ARCIL and Edelweiss
Asset Reconstruction Company Limited (bought portfolio from the Financial Institution,
Exim Bank of India) had initiated recovery action under Securitization and Reconstruction
of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act (SARFAESI Act) 2002.
As the Secured Lenders ARCIL And Edelweiss have taken action under section 13(4) of
SARFAESI Act 2002, the Honble BIFR, pursuant to an application by the referred Secured
Creditors, has ordered on 26.11.2007 to abate the reference filed under SICA Act.
The Company had been issued notice under section 13(4) of the SARFAESI Act for
possession of Secured Assets, that include a part of land, building and complete
machineries (except the machines charged to IDBI earlier) ,charged to the said
Institutions. The Company had been appointed as Custodian of said Secured Assets with
effect from July 11, 2007. The Company was allowed to continue the routine business
operations on payment of Rs 25000 per month towards royalty charges. In April 2011 the
Financial Institutions withdrew the custodianship from the company and took the physical
possession of the factory.
ARCIL also filed a company petition under Section 433(1)(e) of the Company s Act 1956
for winding up of the company, before the Honble High Court of Madhya Pradesh at Indore
Bench. The Company has filed proper reply opposing the winding-up petition filed by ARCIL.
The petition is rejected by the Honble High Court of Madhya Pradesh, Indore Bench.
As the Secured Creditors terminated the custodianship of the company and took the
physical possession of factory in
April 2011, there were no manufacturing operations carried out in the factory. The
Secured Creditors have sealed the production facilities and have deployed their own
security personal. Consequently there was no production and sales in the company.
The company also could not perform any trading activity as the Commercial Tax
Department has cancelled the registration of the company due to the tax liability being
unpaid. The Commercial Tax Department has also raised its claim on the fixed assets of the
company to recover their dues. There is a dispute between Secured Creditors and the
Commercial Tax Department regarding priority of charge on the fixed assets of the company
and the matter is still unresolved.
However the company started some operations in the form of arranging sales to different
buyers on commission basis. This commission income helped the company to take care of all
the expenses in the year. The management is continuously trying to have a settlement with
the said two Secured Creditors so that the company can revive its operations in the
future. Once the settlement is done, the company is also hopeful of reinstating of its
commercial tax registration and start business operations.
Further as the company does not have any manufacturing activities, and also does not
have any sales income, it faced severe hardship in complying with several statutory
requirements like appointment of a Whole-time Company Secretary. The Company tried its
best but considering the companys financial position, none of the candidates agreed to
join the company. The company is still trying to comply with this requirement.
5. Change in the nature of business, if any:

Companys Act 1956 for winding up of the company, before the Honorable High Court of

petition filed by ARCIL. The petition is rejected by the Honble High Court of Madhya
