 value terms the sale of rectified spirit was Rs 882.13 lacs (previous
 year Rs 270.70 lacs) and sales of ethanol was NIL (previous year Rs

 4.  FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
 
 From financial perspective, the year 2009-10 was a lacklustre year. The
 year started of impressively with sugar prices touching a high of Rs
 4,200 per quintal in January, 2010. However, Government intervention
 and a series of measures initiated by the Government dampened the
 market sentiments and the price reversal thereafter were rapid and
 fast. the initial estimates of lower cane availability triggered a
 price war for procurement of sugarcane.  While sugar prices plummeted,
 increase in sugarcane prices beyond SAP was irreversible.
 
 Higher than estimated sugarcane availability coupled with unabated
 imports resulted in abundant availability of sugar. Government measures
 aimed at reining in sugar prices resulted in reduced demand for sugar.
 Institutional sugar consumers, Whole-sellers and retailers who
 constitute a vital cog in the supply chain operated with bare minimum
 stocks. Institutional sugar consumers were encouraged to import their
 sugar requirement directly.  the aforesaid factors dealt lethal blow to
 the market sentiments and sentiments have yet not shown signs of
 perking up. While the first quarter results were heart cockling, the
 results in the subsequent quarters doused all the enthusiasm.
 
 The saving grace was that in spite of numerous odds faced by the
 industry, your Company managed to earn cash profits.
 
 Financial highlights are enumerated herein Under:
 
 
                                                          lac/Rs
 
 particulars                     2009-10          2008-09
 
 Net Sales                        55,507           46,188
 
 EBIDTA                            6,500           12,598
 
 EBDTA                             1,870            6,433
 
 EBT                              (1,336)           3,138
 
 
 1.  Almost 65% increase in landed cost of sugarcane whereas only 39%
 increase in average realization of non- levy sugar was mainly
 responsible for shrinking EBIDTA margins.
 
 2.  Though levy sugar price increased by 36% but increase in levy
 obligation from 10% to 20% had overall adverse impact. Increase in raw
 material procurement cost was more than commensurate with increase in
 levy sale price. There was significant drop in the prices of
 by-products also.
 
 3.  EBIDTA margins, though declined during the year, compare favorably
 with EBIDTA margins of companies in the peer group. Comparatively,
 better EBIDTA margins bears testimony of overall effciencies and lower
 cost of production.
 
 4.  Since the company is highly leveraged the bottom-line continues to
 be under stress, though efforts of the Company to rationalize interest
 costs has paid dividends as the interest cost during the year declined
 to Rs 47 crores as compared to Rs 62 crores in the previous year.
 
 5.  CANE & SUGAR POLICY:
 
 The main policies of the government in relation to the sugar industry
 during the year were
 
 1.  the ratio of levy and free sale sugar was 20:80 for the crushing
 season 2009-10. However, the same now stands restored to 10:90 for the
 year 2010-11
 
 2.  The price of levy sugar for Central U.P. for the year was raised to
 Rs 1,808.47 per quintal for the production & supply of levy sugar from
 1st October, 2009 as against Rs 1,330.77 per quintal till the last
 season.
 
 3.  The Fair & Remunerative price (FRP) for the crushing season 2009-10
 was Rs 129.84 per quintal linked to recovery of 9.50%. the same has been
 increased to Rs 139.12 per quintal for the season 2010-11.
 
 4.  Chronology of SMP announced by the Central Government on the basis
 of recovery is given herein under:
 
 Season                         SMP Rs / Quintal.

 5.  For the crushing season 2010-11 the state Government of Uttar
 Pradesh announced state Administered price (SAP) of Rs. 205 per quintal
 of sugarcane of the general variety to be delivered at the factory
 gate. this is as against state Administered price (SAP) of Rs. 165 per
 quintal of sugarcane of the general variety to be delivered at the
 factory gate for the crushing season 2009-10. the increase in SAP of Rs
 40 is unprecedented and does not augur well for the industry.
