 Dividend

 forward losses, your directors do not recommend any dividend for the
 current year.
 
 Rehabilitation Scheme
 
 The Company is a sick industrial company within the meaning of section
 3 (1) (o) of the Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act,
 1985.
 
 Hon''ble Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) had
 approved Rehabilitation Scheme vide their order dated 1st February,
 2008 effective from 08.01.2008.
 
 The Company has no outstanding term loans from banks/FIs. However, the
 reliefs and concession as envisaged under the scheme, inter alia, from
 State Government of U.P. and Uttaranchal are not being implemented in
 totality by the respective State Governments. The company hope that the
 same are allowed by the respective State Governments in terms of
 direction by Hon''ble BIFR.
 
 Finance
 
 The cash flow remained under pressure because of cash losses
 continuously incurred by the Company through out the year and
 inadequate working capital availability. Sugar sale realization also
 started declining from February 10 onwards and went down to even cost
 of production.
 
 Your directors are hope full that the Company will certainly come out
 of the present phase and shall be able to make positive net worth in
 the next coming years.
 
 The Company has not accepted any deposit from the public.  Industry
 Outlook
 
 Sugar Industry is highly regulated industry in India. Government of
 India initiated reform process to decontrol the industry. The Decontrol
 of Sugar Industry is serious discussion now.
 
 During the year, Imports of White/Raw sugar was allowed by the
 Government at zero import duty and without any export obligation.
 
 During the year sugar production has been estimated at 19.00 million
 tones against 14.5 million tones in 2008-09 by Indian Sugar Mills
 Association. Country is expect to have closing stock of 6 million tones
 against opening stock of 4.4 million tones.
 
 Sugar Price took a sharp correction after achieving peak in early part
 of year. The sugar prices went down to cost of production.
 
 During the year, pricing of sugar cane continues to be vexatious issue.
 Despite the moderate increase in the SAP for the year 2009-10, cane
 cost per MT of Sugar in the State is higher than the current
 realization in the domestic market.
 
 There has been a drastic increase in the state advised price of sugar
 cane during the year under report as compared to previous year. The
 State Government announced SAP at Rs 197.00 per quintal for early
 variety and Rs 192.00 for general verity as against Rs. 148.00 for
 early variety and Rs 143 for general verity of cane during the year
 2008-09.  Though the sugar selling process were also increased during
 early part of the year and there after the free sugar prices went down
 the cost of production of sugar, resulting in loss to the company.
 
 Future prospects of sugar industry looks reasonably good next year.
 ISMA has projected sugar production of 23 million tones. However, the
 raw material cost is expected to be low as compared to this year
 resulting in positive margin from sugar operations
 
 Internal Control System and their Adequacy
 
 The company has proper and effective internal control system
 commensurate with size and scale of business to ensure that all
 controls, procedures and policies of are adhered to.
 
 Risks and Concerns
 
 1.  The Sugar industry is cyclical industry and its'' performance is
 subject to climatic conditions like timely rainfall. The industry has
 been affected by drought and irregular rain on various occasions
 
 2.  The Central Government/State Government fixes the raw material cost
 of cane without referring it to prevailing sugar prices.
 
 3.  The sugar industry has to supply 10% of its production to Central
 Government as levy Quota at the predetermined prices.
 
 4.  Central Government may allow import of white/raw sugar of
 concessional rates of import duties, which will affect the sugar
 realization in domestic market.
