Auditor Remark:
As disclosed in Note No. 2 to the standalone financial statements, the Company holds a longterm investment of ^80.00 lakhs in its Subsidiary, which had undertaken a Cochlear Implant Project. Over the past eight years, the Subsidiary has incurred cumulative project-related expenditure amounting to ^92.63 lakhs. However, the project has remained suspended for the last two financial years, with no additional capital outlay during this period.
Despite the investment being carried at cost in the standalone financial statements, the extended suspension of the project has necessitated an assessment of the recoverability of the carrying value of this investment. Management has represented that the project is expected to recommence in the near future.
The impairment assessment involves significant judgement, including evaluation of future business plans, estimated cash flows, and the expected timing and viability of project execution. Given the inherent subjectivity and the materiality of the investment, we considered this as a matter of significance in assessing the appropriateness of the carrying value of the investment in the Subsidiary.
The Board of Directors has taken note of the auditor''s observation regarding the Companyâs investment of ^80 lakhs in its Subsidiary, which had undertaken the Cochlear Implant Project and has remained suspended for the past two financial years.
The Board would like to clarify the following:
1. The project continues to hold strategic and commercial relevance in the healthcare sector, and the demand for such products remains promising in the market.
2. The Subsidiary is actively working towards restarting the project, including making technical improvements, seeking necessary regulatory approvals, and exploring partnerships.
3. Based on the internal impairment assessment carried out by the management, no loss in the carrying value of the investment is considered necessary at this stage.
4. The Board is closely monitoring the progress of the project and associated risks, and assures that appropriate action will be taken as and when required.
In view of the above, the Board believes that it is reasonable to continue carrying the investment at its current value in the standalone financial statements.
Further, the Board of Directors have also taken on record the Remark of Auditor with respect to Audit Trail (edit log) facility at Kolkata Branch and duly adopted and installed the accounting software for the same for maintaining its books of account for Financial year 2024-25.

PERFORMANCE REVIEW & FUTURE OUTLOOK
The company recorded a total turnover of Rs. 595.51Lacs In year 2009
-2010 against a previous turnover of Rs. 567.30 Lacs Export sale was
Rs.52.64 Lacs Compared to Rs. 67.78 Lacs Respectively. The Directors
have to report that the mobile X-Ray failed to perform qualitatively
and hence a decision was taken to stop the production of the same and
further investment as well.
The company has now capacity to increase production of Pacemakers and
the growth and ale of pacemakers in continuing, especially from
exports,. At the same time the indegeneous sale and profitability
thereof has de- creased due to price and strong competition from
multinationals. The company had embarked on the development of a
microchip for Rs.200.00 lac, which will not only lower the cost of
pacemaker production but also enable the company to develop high
profitable and advance implantable pacemakers which have very good
export prospects as well. The microchip will be available for trials in
September/October 2010. Thereafter the same will be incorpo- rated with
redesigning of all circuitry for existing pacemaker range of the
company. The Interest liability in the next 5 years along with
repayment of term loan sanctioned from Bank of India for the above
project will affect the overall profitability of the company. The
company has made all efforts to decrease the manufacturing and admin-
istrative costs to meet the above eventuality. With intense Research
efforts, the company was able to success- fully develop the screw in
lead and completely indigenized the VVI Rate responsive pacemakers thus
reducing the import costs and increase the profitability thru sale of
these pacemakers. The R&D is working on new advanced products such as
Dual Chamber Rate Responsive pacemaker, Biventricular Pacemaker and its
Leads, Implant- able Neuro -stimulators, CPAP (Continious Positive Air
Pressure) machine and Deep Brain Stimulation Genera- tors, these
products do not require additional machineries for manufacturing of the
same. The Directors also have to inform that the company has been
working with NSTL, Govt. of India in developing for the first time in
India, Cochlear Implants and Deep Brain Stimulation pacemakers and its
Leads. These products and its technology will eventually be liscenced
to the company. The company will become the 4th company in the world to
manufacture Cochlear Implants, which will bring the company increased
revenue and recognition world wide.
