DIRECTORS' REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS
    The directors are pleased to welcome the Members at the 34th Annual General Meeting
of the Company wherein the Audited Accounts of the Company together with the Auditors Report
thereon are to be adopted. The performance of the Company durin9 the period 1995-96 was
not very satisfactory due to certain very cogent reasons.
    The most pertinent cause for lower production of Clinker was the occurrence of a sudden
blast in December 1995 at Works which collapsed the entire mechanical structure and damaged
the allied equipment of Air Separator of Raw Mill-Ill, which resulted in shut down of Kiln-Ill for
more than 90 days. Consequently the Consumption norms remained beyond control which adversely
affected the overall performance and profitability of the Company.
    The other important reasons which contributed towards lower production of cement and sales
were as under :-
a) Law and Order situation coupled with repeated strikes in the city disturbed our production
and sales schedules. Total strike days during this period were 26.
b) The overall Economic depression coupled with Law and Order situation in the city slowed
  down the construction activities, both in private and public sectors, resultin9 in low
  off-take of Cement.
c) Excess availability of cement in South has also led to cut throat competition between
various Cement Manufacturers in Private Sectors.
PRODUCTION:
    The Company produced 368,428 tonnes of Cement and 387,287 tonnes of Clinker during
the year under review. The table given below shows the comparative fi9ures of clinker and
cement production for the two years:
