 The Company produced 26.60 million converted square metres (mcsqm) of
 float glass on an average converted 2 mm basis of various thicknesses
 and sizes during the year 2001-2002 as against 22.87 million converted
 square metres in the previous year.

 3.1 During the year under review, the Company sold a total of 26.15 msm
 of float glass on an average converted 2mm basis against 21.99 msm of
 glass in the previous year, which also included Bronze/Grey/Green
 Tinted glass.
 
 3.2. The Company's glass both of Clear and Tinted variety has been very
 well accepted in the market. Inspite of significant continuing
 oversupply situation on account of further addition to glass capacity
 and intense competition, the Company registered gross sales growth of
 25% over that of the previous year.
 
 3.3 Export sales during the year amounted to around Rs.3568.68 Lakhs as
 against Rs.2,133.19 Lakhs in the previous year reflecting an increase
 of 67%. The international prices of float glass remained stable during
 the year. M/s. ASAHI GLASS SINGAPORE PTE LTD, Singapore has assured us
 of their continued support in exporting of glass to the extent
 possible.
 
 4.0 Turnover and Profits:
 
 The income for the year 2001-2002 was higher at Rs. 24,617.95 Lakhs as
 against Rs. 20,059.72 Lakhs for the previous year on account of higher
 volume of export sales and better sales realisation in domestic market.
 The profit after depreciation and interest was Rs. 437.07 Lakhs as
 against loss of Rs.1323.72 Lakhs for the previous year, mainly on
 account of better realisation in domestic market, improved product-mix,
 reduction in interest/finance costs and aggressive cost cutting
 measures in all areas of operation.
 
 4.2 The accumulated losses of the Company as at March 31,2002, stood at
 Rs.13, 311.52 Lakhs. As such, in terms of Section 23 of the Sick
 Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act 1985 (SICA), the Company
 remains a 'Potentially Sick' Company as its accumulated losses continue
 to be more than 50% of its peak net worth during the immediately
 preceding five financial years. Notwithstanding the heavy accumulated
 losses, as also the erosion of more than 50% of its net worth, as a
 result of measures taken in hand, such as reduction in Preference Share
 Capital through financial restructuring by way of restructuring of
 foreign currency loans and cost reduction measures, substitution of
 high cost borrowings with low cost funds, better operational
 efficiency, etc. FGI has now emerged as a strong player in float glass
 industry.
 
 5.0 Share Capital
 
 With a view to improve the financial position of the company, the
 company in consultation with Asahi Glass Co. Ltd., (AGC), Japan has
 cancelled Rs.143.5 crores of Preference Share Capital held by Asahi
 Glass Co. Ltd., Japan out of the existing Preference Capital of
 Rs.149.50 crores thereby reducing the accumulated losses by a similar
 amount. The entire Preference Share Capital is held by AGC. AGC has
 agreed for cancellation of Preference Share Capital of Rs.143.50 crores
 and write off the entire amount of cumulative dividend since the issue
 of Preference Shares. AGC has further agreed to reduce rate of dividend
 to 0.01% on the balance 6,00,000 Preference Shares of Rs.1 00/- each,
 aggregating to Rs.6 crores on non-cumulative basis.
 
 5.1 The members in the Extraordinary General Meeting held on November
 5, 2001, approved the cancellation of Preference Share Capital of
 Rs.143.5 crores from Rs.149.5 crores. Subsequently, the company made a
 petition before the High Court, Mumbal and which was confirmed by the
 High Court on January 16,2002,confirming the reduction of above said
 Preference Share Capital. As a result of this, now the Preference Share
 Capital is reduced to Rs.6 crores from Rs.149.5 crores. The remaining
 Preference Shares of Rs.6 crores will carry a nominal dividend of 0.01%
 on a Non cumulative basis and will be redeemable on their respective
 dates of redemption in the year 2007 - 2008.
 
 6.0 Finance

 repayment of the existing high cost foreign currency loans. The Loan
 Agreement has been executed on November 12,2001. As per the terms of
 the said Loan Agreement, the said loan will be for a period of 10 years
 and will be interest free for the first eight years. This has resulted
 in substantial reduction in interest costs in the current year and
 helped in improving its financial position.
