TRANSCRIPT

Dear Shareowners,

The year 2008-09 was the start of a global economic slowdown. The financial storm that swept across United States & Europe impacted business across the globe. We too have experienced the tremors of the pain, albeit moderately.

The pharma sector though a relative out-performer in comparison to the overall economy, experienced buoyant forecasts of global pharma sales being moderated.

In retrospection, I am often reminded of the Company's initial struggle to succeed, to refine and to elevate. Having set the pace for accelerated growth in the space of contract manufacturing in pharma, I seek inspiration from Sir Cecil Walter Hardy Beaton's following golden words :

We have leveraged our strengths having taken growth as a challenge and sustainable growth as an opportunity. With a stable government in place and of late the fear about the deficit of monsoon reduced, I believe that the worst is about to be over forIndia. GDP growth is expected to be approx. 6% in 2009-10.

Capex during the year was Rs. 9722.69 Lacs. On CAGR basis the growth in total income is 226.30% over the last five years. Dividend has been maintained since our focus is on the future growth and further expansion is in progress to cater to international markets.

Ankur today is in the forefront of Contract Manufacturing of pharmaceuticals formulations of various dosage forms to India's leading and multinational pharma companies. Not only that, the new pharmaceutical formulations in the form of Trans Dermal Patches and Rapid Films are at their final stage and likely to be in the market shortly. Five employees are deputed to Germany for training in dosage formulation of the new products. The research and development activities are equally going on in respect of further new products.

I, along with my other board members thank you for your continued support and confidence shown during all these years, which has indeed been a source of great inspiration to us.

Warm regards,

Purnandu JainChairman and Managing DirectorSeptember 01, 2009

India is relatively better placed compared to other highly affected global economies [which are expected to show very minimal or -ve GDP growth]. The health of the Indian economy which also appeared deteriorated is of late showing some visible signs of recovery. With a new stable goverment in place at the centre, the GDP growth is expected to be not less than six percent.

ANNEXURE - II FORMING PART OF THE DIRECTORS’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDEDMARCH 31, 2009

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

We submit herewith our Management Discussion and Analysis Report on the Company's business for the year ended March 31, 2009. We have attempted to include discussion on all specified matters to the extent relevant, or within limits that in our opinion are imposed by the Company's competitive position.

1. Pharmaceutical Industry - Global and Indian Structure

In 2008-09, the world economy faced a challenging year in the wake of a crises triggered by US - Sub prime market. The global economy having witnessed growth around 2% during F.Y. 2008-09 is forecasted to have negative growth during 2009-10 due to the consequences of the global financial crises. Even if the worst is over though nobody makes such assurances much uncertainty remains about the recovery's nature and pace due to unknown behavioral effects and unknown economic effects. The entire economic scenario has made business more challenging in terms of precise forecast and planning, timely execution and driving down the manufacturing costs.

Indian pharma market currently represents USD 17 billion of the global pharma market of estimated at USD 773.1 billion, however it is growing at a faster rate of 14 percent plus CAGR compared to global market growth of 4-6 percent over the next five years.

During the year under review, the Indian Economy recorded a lower growth of 6.75% as compared to average of 8% achieved in the previous three years. The Indian economy is likely to grow at 6% and the pharma industry is expected to be relatively better off largely due to inelastic domestic demand.

Despite a sustainable healthy growth of the pharma industry and a future full of promise and exciting opportunities, there remain some concerns relating to the growth of companies within the industry.

Company Overview

Since 2006 the Company has embarked on expansion plan to realise its vision to manufacture and supply quality pharma products at reasonable prices to our customers. Our focus is and will be to meet and exceed customers' expectations. This year, there was a midway blip-short of speed breaker in our long term future plans. The never imagined events swept the entire world, which also did marginally affect the Company's plans. But vigilantly we anchored and overcame the obstacles faced without diluting our strategic focus on the future growth and expansion plans.

On the expanded capital of 1901.54 lacs, the EPS is more than Rs. 19 per share. The Indian Contract Manufacturing industry is on a growth trajectory and the Company is playing a significant role, supporting the pharma industry. Now we are well placed to take advantage of the growth prospects ahead. We expect this trend to gather pace and to get back the earlier momentum.

Recent Developments

Our thrust for 2009 as stated in the Annual Report last year was partially achieved and will be fully implemented in the current year. New value added products with high margins, dedicated contract manufacturing for large overseas customers are our target areas of focus for future.

2. Segment-wise/Product-wise performance

The Company’s Business segment is Pharmaceutical Formulations in the Form of Tablets, Capsules, Liquid Orals, Oral Powder, Dry Syrups, Ointments both Manufactured and Outsourced. The Net Sales during the year is Rs. 965.32 Crs [Rs. 673.50 Crs] in the previous year. A growth of more than 43.33% compared to previous year.

3 Opportunities

We enjoy pre-eminent position in pharma contract manufacturing, which we intend to consolidate. We are managing downside risk with an eye on upside potential.

Baddi, Himachal Pradesh. In the changing landscape your Company is adopting a combination of alternative and additional Business Models to navigate competition and opportunity.

3. Threats , Risks and Concerns

The Company’s products are largely intended for sale in the domestic market. The increase in raw material prices, competition from the established and emerging players, foreign exchange fluctuation, increase in other input costs are major areas of risks and concerns. Apart from normal risks as applicable to an Industrial Undertaking, Indian Pharma Companies being covered under DPCO Regime are subject to frequent price reductions and revisions, which is also a cause of concern.

The Company has adequate insurance coverage of all its assets. The compliance of safety norms and requirements as prescribed by different government agencies are duly fulfilled.

4. Outlook

The Contract Manufacturing industry is becoming more and more competitive with several new players entering this arena. With the global recession and efforts on the part of global players to reduce costs, India has been identified as an outsourcing hub for manufacture of pharma products. With this development Indian Pharma Companies are poised for further growth, and with our huge capacities, focus on the future, the future of Ankur is more challenging and promising.

Employees are the key to achievement of the Company's objectives and strategies. The Company provides employees with a fair and equitable work environment and support to develop their capabilities. With the added emphasis placed on the safe operation, the training given to employees not only covers knowledge and technical skills but also lays stress on behavioural areas, like creating a ‘safety mindset’, and ‘attitude building’.

Fifteenth Annual Report 2009

SCHEDULE – 17 :

NOTES ANNEXED TO AND FORMING PART OF THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2009

1. Significant Accounting Policies :

I. Basis of Accounting :

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention on a going concern basis. The Company generally follows the mercantile system of accounting and recognises the income and expenditure on accrual basis except those with significant uncertainties and comply with accounting standards issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956.

II. Fixed Assets :Fixed Assets are stated at cost of acquisition or construction, including taxes and pre-operative expenses capitalised less accumulated depreciation.

III. Impairment of Assets :

The carrying amount of assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date, if there is any indication of impairment based on internal / external factors. An asset is impaired when the carrying amount of the asset exceed the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is charged to the Profit and Loss Account in the year in which the Asset is identified as being impaired.

IV. Depreciation :

a] The Depreciation on Fixed Assets is provided on straight-line method, in accordance with the Schedule XIV of the Companies Act, 1956.

b] The Depreciation on assets added during the year has been provided on pro-rata basis with reference to the date on which the assets were put to use.

c] No depreciation has been provided on the fixed assets, which have not been put to use during the year.

V. Valuation of Inventories :

a] Raw material, Packing material, Consumable Stores and spares are valued at lower of cost or net realisable value.

b] Work-in-Progress and Finished goods are valued at lower of cost or net realisable value.

c] Work-in-Progress and Finished goods include cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

VI. Investments :

The long term investments [unquoted] are stated at cost. The Income from investments is accounted for when received. The provision for diminution in value of other investments have been made considering their realisable value as at the end of financial year.

VII. Provisions :

The provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past events; it is more likely that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount have been reliably estimated.

VIII. Employees Benefits :

Short Term Employee Benefits

All employee benefits payable within twelve months of rendering service are recognized in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

Post Employment / Retirement Benefits

Contribution to Defined Contribution Plans such as Provident Fund etc., are charged to the Profit and Loss Account as incurred.

Gratuity

As per AS - 15 (Revised) 2005 of ICAI read with Accounting Standard Board guidance, the provision for liability in respect of gratuity has not been computed and provided by the Company in the books for the period under review, for which we are unable to express our opinion about the implication on the current year profit of the Company and also the accumulated reserves of the company.

37

focusing on the future ....

IX. Interest Cost :

The interest costs incurred in connection with the borrowing of the funds are charged to revenue on accrual basis except those which are directly attributable to the acquisition of the fixed assets.

3. Foreign Exchange Differences :

On account of various factors and further considering an amendment to Schedule VI of the Companies Act, 1956 withdrawing the requirement to adjust changes in the amounts of liability relating to loans/ liabilities in foreign currency attributable to Fixed Assets acquired by the Company in the cost of the respective Fixed Assets, the Company has decidedthat it would be more appropriate to account for the change in foreign exchange rates, as the profit or loss of the Company for the year in which the changes take place without adjusting the amount of the change in the cost of Fixed Assets.

The Accounting policy is in line with the Accounting Standard “AS” 11, “The Effect of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”.
