Mr. Gundavaram Venkata Bhaskar Rao, a graduate in agricultural 
 science, is one of the founder Promoters of our Company. He started 
 the business of seed production of Public bred varieties of corn,
 bajra,
 sunflower on his own lands in the village of Gatla Narsingapur,
 Karimgar
 District, Andhra Pradesh.
 
 Subsequently, on August 27, 1986, our Company, promoted by
 Mr. Gundavaram Venkata Bhaskar Rao, Mrs. Gundavaram Vanaja Devi &
 Mr. Rangineni Venu Manohar Rao, was incorporated as Kaveri Seed 
 Company Private Limited under theCompanies Act, having Registration 
 No. 6728 of 1986-87. We continued to carry on the business of seed
 production,
 processing, packing and marketing and simultaneously set up a 
 processing plant in Bellary in Karnataka. In 1987, our Company set
 up
 its marketing office at Davangere in Karnataka. In 1996, we set up
 an R & D facility at Bollaram to carry on esearch and to breed new
 hybrids.
 
 
 In 1997, our Company set up a Seed Processing Plant at Biramulguda 
 near Hyderabad. In the same year our Companyintroduced sunflower 
 hybrid seeds. In 1999, we increased our seed conditioning capacity to
 meet the
 growing demands by setting up a large scale processing plant at
 Kandlakoi 
 near Hyderabad. In the year 2002, our Promoters entered into
 acomplementary
 business of Bio-Products and Micro-Nutrients for which they set up a
 partnership 
 firm under the name and style of M/s. Kaveri Agriteck for
 manufacturing and 
 marketing bio-products and micro-nutrients under the brand
 'Microteck'. We have
 entered into a sub-licensing agreement with Mahyco Monsanto Biotech

 2004.
 
 A new seed conditioning plant with Cob Dryers was set up at Gundla
 Pochampally
 near Hyderabad in 2005 and in Eluru in Andhra Pradesh in 2006. These
 cob drying 
 facilities help in processing corn cobs collected from production
 fields with high moisture 
 levels. These facilities gave us the advantage of obtaining seeds
 with optimum
 moisture level with prolongedshelf life and increased vigor. By the
 end of the FY 2006,
 our Company achieved a turn over of more than Rs. 4,800 lakhs.
 InSeptember 2006,
 the business, assets and liabilities of M/s. Kaveri Agriteck were
 acquired by our 
 company, giving us the ability of meeting farmers' needs of seeds as
 well as plant 
 nutrients (i.e. bio-products and micro-nutrients) under one
 roof.Currently we are into 
 production and marketing of agri-inputs (seeds of wide range of crops
 such as corn,
 sunflower, cotton,pearl millet, grain sorghum, paddy and hybrid
 vegetables, and also
