 Performance
 
 Your Company incurred heavy losses in this year too due to
 un-remunerative selling price of finished products and high cost of
 iron ore and coal prevailing throughout the year leading to a situation
 where higher production meant higher loss. As a result, production was
 at the lowest in the history of the Company and was limited to 42,872
 MT in the sponge iron unit (17.15 % capacity utilization) and was 6,778
 MT in the billet unit (6.78 % capacity utilization). Revenue from power
 sales dropped substantially from Rs. 1,259.54 lacs in 2010-11 to Rs. 365.49
 lacs in 2011-12 due to lower capacity utilization in the sponge iron
 unit. Production will not be remunerative until the cost of iron ore
 and coal reduce and selling price of finished product improves.
 
 Your Company had approached its lenders for a corporate debt
 restructuring to address the irregularity in the borrowings in view of
 difficult market situations which is under consideration.
 
 Your Company is confident to receive forest clearance and permission to
 mine from the iron ore mines allotted to the Company shortly.
 Availability of iron ore from captive mines will vastly improve both
 production and profitability. Availability of coal from captive mine
 will still take a few years and will result in even higher
 profitability.
 
 Open offer formalities are over, which will help consolidate Company''s
 planning and operations.

 Bamra Iron & Steel Company (India) Ltd. is a wholly owned subsidiary of
 the Company. As the Company has not started operations and project is
