1997. |
|
| The
Management re-started the plant by the grace of Almighty Allah, by the end of

| million
as compared with the previous year, affected company's operating results.

|
| continued
efforts to improve the results of the Company brought about reduction in
costs |

against |
|

of Rs. 146,846/= in previous year. |

against Rs. 40.97 million in previous year. |

charging all administrative and selling expenses including depreciation of
Rs.15,261,451/= |
|

after providing Rs.16,500,000/= for taxation your Company has earned a net
profit |
|
