FUTURE PROSPECTS
The management is in the process of negotiating with the customer, further increase
in the paper price for the year 1998-99. The Directors are hopeful for a reasonable
price increase.
Your Company is endeavouring to increase its plant capacity by about 200-250
tonnes per annum through BMRE, including addition of some locally manufactured
components. This is being pursued not only to save foreign exchange but also to
encourage locally available technical know how. This would require a sequential
fabrication of the plant components according to a well-conceived plan ensuring minimum
plan shut down period with optimum results. Some of the components are at advanced
stage of fabrication. Our desire is to improve the quality of paper as well. To achieve
this, a fresh financial plan is under consideration.
Your Directors are optimistic that these steps would bring in more prosperity to
your Company in the near future.
