1. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY'S WORKING DURING THE YEAR
Everything is in limbo on account of the continuing IBC proceedings
under CIRP and our appeal disputing the Corporate Guarantee in the NCLAT. As a holding on
measure the plant is being run on rental under leave and license arrangement with Green
Line Electronics. The rental, though abysmally inadequate, does partly meet the skeletal
overhead of Security, Company Secretary, the sole staff, RTA and other Regulatory
Overheads. It does fall short of meeting the hefty BSE ALF which is liquidated over a
prolonged period of 6 to 8 months in instalments. Fettered by the IBC provisions our
accomplishments fall far short of our intent. But like everything even this should pass.
SUBSIDIARIES, JOINT VENTURES AND ASSOCIATE COMPANIES
The Company does not have any Subsidiary, Joint venture or Associate
Company.
2. DIVIDEND & RESERVES
In view of losses during the year under review, no dividend pay-out is
being recommended and accordingly no question of appropriation of reserves arise.

Developer M/S Clarion Townships Pvt. Ltd.) or investments made by the Company under

provision is not applicable.
