Discussion as per Company:
During the year 2014-2015 the Company has achieved a Net Revenue of βΉ1,115.90 Crores for the year ended 31st March, 2015
as compared to βΉ4,126.26 Crores in the previous year recording a major dip of 26.97%.
This drop in turnover has been mainly due to the restrictions imposed by Reserve Bank of India on bullion since May 2013. These
restrictions imposed by RBI on bullion trading, to control the countryβs Current Account Deficit (CAD) has virtually made the
companyβs status as Nominated Agency as ornamental, and consequently the company could not do any Bullion turnover as
Nominated Agency.
Revenues from wind power generation during the year amounted to βΉ4.87 Crores as against βΉ6.61 Crores for the previous year.
The fall in wind energy division has been mainly due to shutting down of grid for abnormal period during the peak season.
During the year 2013-2014 the Companyβs total turnover during the year ended 31st March, 2014, was at βΉ4,126.95 Crores as
against βΉ8,471.24 Crores for the previous year, recording a major dip of around 51%. The Company could achieve Sales of only
βΉ16.74 crores under Nominated Agency as against βΉ543.75 crores in the previous year.
Similarly, the non-availability of material on SBLC basis also restricted the Companyβs ability to do exports. In fact, the company
during the year had made exports of βΉ53.79 crores only against βΉ1,550.55 crores in the previous year. Another reason leading to
this fall in exports is the overall recessionary trend in international markets. Revenues from wind energy during the year
amounted to βΉ6.61 crores as against βΉ11.95 crores. The Companyβs Loss after Tax was at βΉ360.33 Crores in the current year as
against a profit of βΉ53.16 Crores for the Previous Year.
During the year 2012-2013 the Companyβs total turnover ended 31st March, 2013, in spite of adverse circumstances, was at
βΉ8,471.24 crores as against βΉ8,666.02 crores for the previous year, recording a marginal dip of just 2%.
The Company achieved a commendable performance of βΉ543.75 crores of Bullion sales under Nominated Agency as against
βΉ471.22 crores in the previous year. The Export turnover of the Company decreased by 23% to βΉ1,550.55 crores in 2012-2013 as
against βΉ1,910.73 crores in the previous year. The decrease in export turnover has been due to the overall recessionary trend in
international markets. Similarly, domestic sales during the year decreased by 5% to βΉ6,365.00 crores as against βΉ6,755.29 crores
in the previous year. Revenues from wind energy during the year amounted to βΉ11.95 crores as against βΉ5.68 crores. The
Companyβs Profit after Tax was at βΉ53.16 Crores in the current year as against βΉ67.70 Crores for the Previous Year.
The Company even in these testing times could maintain its overall performance due to the better management of the
resources available, control on overheads and deeper understanding of the market behaviour. During the year, Gold Prices
witnessed a steady uptrend.

The Auditors have not made any qualification in last three years. However, they have emphasised on the following matter in
the Annual Report for FY 2015.
Emphasis of Matter: 2015
βThe entire net worth of the Holding Company has eroded due to Loss. The Holding Company has incurred both Non Cash Loss

financial loss of the company has been converted into long term loans as per the CDR package approved by the banks. Hence
the company is confident of reviving its business.β
Management Response: 2015
βOn 25th November, 2015 CDR packaging of the Company has been approved, consequent to which the moratorium extended
by banks will help the Company to drastically cut down the cash outflows on account of financial expenses. Further with the
relaxation in the Gold Import made by RBI, the Company expects to become viable in short period of time.β
