depreciation and tax on a net turnover of Rs.1094.70 crores. Although there was

marginal growth in net turn over during the year, there was fall in profit mainly

due to increase in price of all major raw materials like iron ore, coal etc., and fall

in the country for the second successive year. The high tempo of production in

all the production shops was maintained

produced 601527 t of Blast Furnace Coke which was * 66% higher than previous

year, 926765 t of gross sinter which was 14% more over the previous year and

679417 t of hot metal with an increase of 10.36% over the previous year. Pig

iron production was 614911 t and growth over previous year was 11.35% with

power generation at 244243 MWH recording a growth of 71.14% over the

previous year. The growth in production is attributed to better process
