MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT:
The management discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of the company for the period under review as required under clause 49 of the listing agreement of the stock exchange, is given as a separate statement forming part of this Annual report.
BUSINESS INNOVATION, EXPANSION AND DIVERSIFICATION
The Companys operations were affected and become nil as the Companys bankers issued notice under SARFEASI act and taken possessions of the properties of the Company.
PNB since 2015 continuously resorted to a series of e auction of Companys properties in violation of many provisions of SARFEASI act, initially in collusion with the sole single bidder (the neighboring company to our biotech unit) sold at a throw away price of Rs. 17.25 crores, (initially valued at a distress reserve price of Rs. 50.00 crores) whose sale was set aside two times by Honorable High Court and third time with vengeance sold at Rs. 22.5 crores , despite strong objections and representation of the Company to give a fair opportunity to resolve the issue. The authorized officer and his superiors at Circle office and Zonal Office resorted to all possible violations of the provisions of the SARFEASI ACT in their vengeful anxiety to auction the Companys Assets.
Despite the struck down (second time) by Honorable High Court of July 2017 auction PNB, even before the receipt of the copy of the Judgement again issued auction notice of our Biotech unit at Hyderabad fixing the reserve price at Rs. 21.00 crores and auctioned at R. 22.5 crores, this time with 5 bidders. All along the whole 2017 during which two auctions were held at reserve price of Rs. 17.25 crores to sole single bidder with an argument that there are no bidders. This itself shows the mollified intentions and misdeeds of certain PNB officials. During 2017 to 2018 PNB has cooked up several valuation reports to suit them.
The Company has no option but to approach Honorable High Court for the third time and the matter is presently under sub judice.
