| CHAIRMAN'S

|
|
| It
gives us pleasure to present to you the Tenth Annual Report of your Company. |
|
|
| As
stated in the Foreword to the audited accounts for the six months ended 30
June 1995, the current |
|
| accounting

|
| year,
which henceforth will be July-June. |
|
|
| OPERATING

|
| Pre-tax

| AUDITORS'
REPORT |
|
| The
qualification in the auditors' report is of a consequential nature. Their
report on the accounts for the |
|
| year
ended 31st December, 1994 was qualified for the inclusion of exchange loss
amounting to Rs. 26.90 |
|
| million
in the cost of stock in trade. While giving our opinion in the Chairman's and
Directors' Report |
|
| last
year, we stated that cost of the inventory imported under usance letters of
credit should comprise of |
|
| the
actual amount paid to suppliers and other costs incurred on these stocks. |
|
| During
the period under review, the stocks carried over from last year including the
above referred loss of |
|
| Rs.
26.90 million in their value, were sold at prices higher than cost. |
|
|
| APPOINTMENT
OF AUDITORS |
|
| The
retiring auditors, M/s. Taseer Hadi Khalid & Company Chartered
Accountants, being eligible, have |
|
| offered
themselves for reappointment. |
|
|
| PATTERN
OF SHARE HOLDINGS |
|
| The
pattern of Share holdings of the Company as at 30th June, 1996 is given on
page No. 24. |
|
|
| CHANGE
IN MANAGEMENT |
|
| Subsequent
to the period under review Mr. Akram M. Ghauri resigned from the Board. Mr.
K. Nakamura, |
|
| nominee
of Nissan Diesel Motor Co., Ltd., Japan also resigned. |
|
|
| ASSISTANCE
BY OUR PRINCIPALS. |
|
| Your
Directors would like to express their sincere gratitude to our Principals,
M/s. Nissan Diesel Motor |
|
| Company
Limited, Japan, and M/s Tomen Corporation, Japan for their wholehearted
support, cooperation |
|
| and
help when it was most needed. We look forward to the same in future. |
|
|
| LABOUR
- MANAGEMENT RELATIONS |
|
| The
labour - management relations remained very satisfactory throughout the
period. |
|
|
| MANAGEMENT
/ STAFF / WORKERS / DEALERS / VENDORS |
|
| Your
Directors would like to record their appreciation for the sincere efforts and
continued cooperation of |
|
| the
staff, workmen, CBA, dealers and vendor.,;, whose combined efforts have put
your company back on |
|
| the
road to progress. |
|
|
| FUTURE
PROSPECTS |
|
| As
a result of upward trend so far depicted in the demand for vehicles, the
outlook for the year 1996-97 is |
|
| reasonably
optimistic. However strenuous efforts will have to be made to minimize the
effect of rampant |
|
| inflation,
frequent devaluation of Pak. Rupee, increase in POL prices and imposition of
additional levies |
|
| in
the mini-budget. These measures are otherwise bound to affect the economy as
a whole. Moreover, |
|
| political
conditions prevailing in the country will weigh heavily in shaping the state
of the economy in |
|
| days
to come. |

|
|
| AUDITORS'
REPORT TO THE MEMBERS |
|
| We
have audited the annexed Balance Sheet of Ghandhara Nissan Diesel Limited as
at 30 June 1996 |
|
| and
the related Profit and Loss Account and Statement of Changes in Financial
Position, together with |
|
| the
notes forming part thereof, for the eighteen months period then ended and we
state that we have |
|
| obtained
all the information and explanations which to the best of our knowledge and
belief were |
|
| necessary
for the purposes of our audit and after due verification thereof, we report
that: |
|
|
| (a)
in our opinion, proper books of account have been kept by the Company as
required by the |
|
| Companies
Ordinance, 1984; |
|
|
|
| (b)
in our opinion: |
|
|
| i)
the balance sheet and profit and loss account together with the notes thereon
have been |
|
| drawn
up in conformity with the Companies Ordinance, 1984 and are in agreement |
|
| with
the books of account and are further in accordance with accounting policies |
|
| consistently
applied; |
|
|
|
| ii)
the expenditure incurred during the period was for the purpose of the
Company's |
|
| business:
and |
|
|
|
| iii)
the business conducted, investments made and the expenditure incurred during
the |
|
| period
were in accordance with the objects of the Company; |
|
|
| (c)
as more fully explained in note 5, exchange loss of Rs. 26.9 million included
in the cost of |
|
| stock
in trade at 31 December 1994 has been charged to profit and loss account
during the |
|
| period.
Had the exchange difference been charged to profit and loss account in the
period it |
|
| was
incurred, profit for the current period and loss for the previous year would
have been |
|
| higher
by Rs. 26.9 million. |
|
|
|
| (d)
in our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us, |
|
| the
balance sheet, profit and loss account and the statement of changes in
financial position, |
|
| together
with the notes forming part thereof, give the information required by the
Companies |
|
| Ordinance,
1984 in the manner so required and give a true and fair view of the state of
the |
|
| company's
affairs as at 30 June 1996 and except for the effect of exchange loss
referred to in |
|
| para
(c) above charged during the period, of the profit and the changes in
financial position for |
|
| the
period then ended; and |
|
|
|
| (e)
in our opinion, no zakat was deductible at source under the Zakat and Ushr
Ordinance, 1980. |
