Reasons for the fall in  income:

Nupoor Capitals Ltd. was initially engaged in the business of share trading and investments in which it did the total business of Rs.101.64 lacs during the financial year 2000-2001. However though the turnover in the sale shares was to the tune of Rs. 101.64 lacs, the profit after tax was negligible since the purchase price of shares in most of the cases were also high thereby reducing the profit. From the financial year 2001-2002 onwards, it reduced its share trading business and started its core activity as an NBFC and thereby there has been a fall in income due to the new activities started by the company.

4.4    FUTURE PLANS/ STRATEGIES OF THE ACQUIRER WITH REGARD TO THE TARGET COMPANY.

 

The Acquirer is in the business of investment in shares and securities and loans and advances and the target company is also presently sourcing its income from interest on loans and advances.  Through the acquisition the acquirer expects to expand his scope of operations and also get the benefits of listing.

 

4.5.  OPTION IN TERMS OF REGULATION 21(3)

(IIT Group ) and Stock Traders Pvt. Ltd. (STPL) and thereby Industrial Investment Trust Ltd (present sellers) acquired the sole control in SML. However having regard to the fact that transactions involved only a re-alignment of the shareholding among the persons who acted in concert at the time of Takeover of the company in February 1995   without affecting the public shareholding and/or management, SEBI vide its letter dated May 8, 1996 granted exemption to the said acquisition under Regulation 4 of SEBI (SAST) Regulations.

17.  Reasons for Fall/rise in total income and PAT for the financial year 2002-2003 and 2003-2004.

 

2002-2003

The income for the financial year 2002-2003 was Rs.0.98 lacs as compared to Rs. 60.52 lacs for the financial year 2001-2002. The income for the financial 2001-2002 was higher due to the sale of the office premises and investments held in 2001-2002. The income for the financial year 2002-03 was only interest income in 2002-2003 hence on the lower side.

 

2003-2004

The income for the financial year 2003-2004 was Rs.0.15 lacs as compared to Rs. 0.98 lacs for the financial year 2002-2003. The income for the financial 2003-2004 reduced by Rs.0.83 lacs as compared to 2002-2003. This was because during the year 2003-2004, the loans given were repaid to the tune of Rs.1.25 lacs and hence the interest income was reduced to Rs. 15,107 as compared to Rs.98,030 in the previous year.
