Dear shareholder,
Warm greetings to you!
It is my pleasure and privilege to communicate to you through this annual
report. In spite of arduous defies on several fronts we are able to reform the
year 2013-14 to another eventful and successful year in our passionate
journey towards sustainable development. Our performance in totality has
been encouraging and on the financial front, I'm proud to announce that
despite the volatile market conditions, our revenue has grew by 37.31 % and
we are able to report a quantum leap in net profit, by 54.05 %, the highest-ever
net profit since its inception. This spectacular achievement is the result of our
operational excellence and goal oriented efforts.
It is evident that our products has gained greater and wider acceptance which backed us to get orders
from institutional buyers like Sate Road Transport Corporations. Besides the dealer networks, our
services to cater indigenous retreading requirements have been further supported by franchise
partners.Towards our international reach, we are able to explore various international markets like UAE,
African Countries, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan etc.
Since the tyre retreading gives better road performance than new tyres at an absolute minimum fiscal
impact, this industry has gained greater acceptance and better position in tyre replacement market.
Retreading has other distinct advantages like prolonged tyre life, prevention of premature disposal etc.
which leads to saving of energy and natural resources. Hence tyre retreading effectively addresses the
environmental apprehensions and has become an ecological as well as economical choice.
Currently Eastern Brand has emerged as a premier tyre retreading solution provider with quality products
and manufacturing facility in tune with market necessities. We're equipped to cater the market
requirements by supplying products to cover all stages of the retreading process of every tyre size of all
vehicles. This has made our brand a favourite for major retreading companies and RTCs in our
indigenous and international markets and now we are competing with multinational branded tyre
manufacturers who have recently entered into this industry.
Similar to international scenario our native market is also moving towards branding of tyre retreading
products and we have actively taken various brand building exercises like introduction of new face to our
website and logo towards better brand visibility, fleet owner's campaigns, ads etc. In this dynamic
industrial environment our future growth prospects are associated with our ability to cater our consumer
expectations. In this juncture I'm confident that we have bright future and ability to deliver better results to
all our stakeholders.
In this scenario, I would like to thank our biggest resource and asset, our employees for taking
concomitant efforts to achieve our goals and targets through significant efforts, goal oriented hard-work
and commitment. I'm confident that this young and dynamic Eastern Team will drive us towards greater
heights notwithstanding the challenges that may arise in future.
Let me take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation to my colleagues on Board for their
immense contribution and cooperation in charting a road map. Before I conclude, let me also express my
gratitude to our Customers, Business Associates, Suppliers, Bankers and Statutory Authorities. Let me
thank all of you for your continued confidence and support.
With warm regards

the highest-ever net profit since its inception. The net profit amounted to `164.09 Lakhs as against

11
This spectacular achievement is the result of goal oriented workings, cost effective production, increase
in operational efficiency and better working capital management. Furthermore, major orders from Road
Transport Corporations, International Markets and healthier support by franchise partners are important
backings to our remarkable achievement. Now your Company is aiming to pursue higher levels by
expanding its activities in international and domestic markets especially in institutional buyers markets.
Dividend
In view of the inadequacy of profit, your Directors are not in a position to recommend any dividend.
Current Scenario
Our Company and the tyre retreading industry in general show healthy signs during this financial year.
Various factors like cost advantage, increasing number of vehicles, demand by tyre replacement market,
logistic network, improvement in quality of roads, overloading norms, increasing level of radialisation etc.
drive retreading and it helped our Company to grow further.
The changes in consumer behavior due to monetary benefits, technological innovations and
advancement in manufacturing systems are important factors which helped the retreading to emerge as a
part of overall tyre management program. Now the retreading holds out as an economically viable option
for fleet owners. Hence, your Company is enthusiastic in its development prospects.
The Company has gone through a challenging year which has showed volatility in raw material prices.
Even though the rubber price has declined from its peak level other input costs like labour, power and
other raw materials continued its increasing trend and has affected the profitability. However the volatile
market condition has forced the Company to offer further reduction in price to its finished goods. To face
this challenge we strive to save cost in all areas of production to offer better competitive price. Our
continuous improvement in production process, cutting edge technology, good customer care, vendor
development and better utilization of resources also helped the Company to achieve our remarkable
growth in profitability.
Your Company has grown over the years and is widely recognized as a world class manufacturer of tyre
retreading materials. Now Eastern Treads has a brand image closely associated with tyre retreading
industry and the Company is arming towards a bright future.
Marketing Strategy
Over the years we built our Eastern brand and recognition as a premier tyre retreading solution provider.
Your Company is one of the market leaders in the production of tyre retreading materials and has proven
to the market that we are firmly committed to supply quality products. We provide premium quality
retreading products that can offer better value and more strength by producing reliable retreads that have
good characteristics in mileage, heat dispersion and traction. Now we earned reputation as a specialist
in producing comprehensive range of tyre retreading materials that can excel in all weather and road
conditions.
12
Our extensive product portfolio with Eastern brand are sold through our domestic and international
business networks. This brand reputation with quality products facilitated us to get acceptance in
institutional buyers like large retreading companies and Road Transport Corporations. This abetted us to
get the order from KSRTC to cater their entire retreading requirement and major orders from MSRTC
during this year. Moreover our retreading services have been further supported by our franchise partners,
reflecting strong growth in our priority markets. Our healthy network and brand presence have enabled us
to further expand our presence internationally. Now we are growing our presence in various export
markets like UAE, African Countries, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan etc. and are exploring various
international markets.
Now we emphasis to further intensify our customer base by better market penetration in existing as well as
new geographies and to further strengthen and establish a long standing association with our consumers
by providing total tyre retreading solutions. As there is a growing demand for quality products in domestic
and international markets, with our brand image on well performing products and with more than two
decades of manufacturing experience in retreading industry we are on the move to capture our market
share globally by offering premium range retreading materials.
Raw Materials
Even though the prices of key raw materials like natural and synthetic rubber come down from its peak
level prices of other inputs have increased due its supply deficit. Import of such inputs became inevitable
but imports are become expensive as inflation remained above manageable level. Since this industry is
highly raw material intensive, the volatility in input costs has affected the profitability of the Company.
Your Company has managed the situation by developing reliable, efficient and sustainable raw material
supply sources of national and International level. The Company has maintained good relationship with
its suppliers by working closely with them through which the raw material procurement system has
functioned effectively.
Quality
The Company is always keen on maintaining quality and productivity. Your Company has built its brand
with its commitment to total quality management. The products are tested at every stage of manufacturing
to ensure that the very best is made available to the market that provides the exact customer requirement.
The Company's policy of best manufacturing practices has been bestowed with various quality
certifications and accreditations to its credit.
To cater for the different needs of the market our research and development team is committed to
understand the customer demands and to develop products that make value and satisfaction to the
customers. This made the Company to keep its competitive edge in the market by producing products
which can provide superior performance, safety and comfort under different and extreme road
conditions. In addition to give high quality products we provide after sale services and expert technological
assistance aiming to serve complete service to our customers.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

a) Industry Structure and Developments
Similar to the tyre industry, the tyre replacement market has a vital role for the growth of tyre
retreading industry, because around 85% of the tyre demand is for replacement. Hence, this market is
the backbone to the tyre retreading industry. The tyre retreading has reported healthy growth in past
few years. Its cost advantage when compared with the cost of new tyre is the prime reason for this
growth. Secondary factors like growth in transportation, agriculture, industry, vehicle demand,
infrastructure development, has also influenced in this growth.
In the international markets, branded tyre manufacturers play a key role in the re-treading business.
However, Indian scenario was different and it was fragmented and unorganised. However, the recent
entry of tyre brands in retreading environment in India is an indication that Indian market is also
surging towards branding. Your Company has actively taken various brand building exercises in
domestic and international markets. Several welcome steps have been taken towards this direction
including new face to our website and logo for better brand visibility, fleet owner's campaigns etc.
The technological improvements and quality of tyre retreading materials resulted in an increased
service life of tyres. As retreading prolongs the tyre life, it is the way to reduce fleet owners operating
cost. This cost savings facilitated the tyre retreading to gain greater acceptance and has placed the
retreaders in a better position than the tyre industry in tyre replacement market. In fact, retreading has
not only cost less but is a comprehensive ecological choice which provides considerable
environmental sustainability and thereby addresses social concerns due to energy savings and
diminution in pollution.
Our Easten branded products covers all stages of the retreading process and we are committed to put
constant endeavour to ensure continuous improvement in quality, durability and reliability with
minimum economy.
b) Opportunities and Threats
While analyzing fleet operating costs, the tyres outlays third stage right after labour and fuel. Here the
tyre retreading has emerged as a good tyre management program, which limits the fleet operating
cost to an absolute minimum. Since around 85% of the tyre demand is for replacement, retreading
could have a detrimental impact on replacement demand for tyres.
Tyre retreading is having good future with the introduction of radialisation, better quality road networks
and increased share of multi-axle trucks. Even though the radial tyres have improved mileage, rolling
resistance and less tread wear compared to bias-ply tyres which will impact retreading, it is a blessing to
tyre retreading as radial tyres give high quality casings that can be successfully retreaded multiple times
and the quality retreaded tyres will build customer confidence. This gives a range of opportunities for
higher level retreading and Eastern Treads aims to capitalize this opportunity.
30
The advantages of Eastern Treads in tyre retreading industry are its vast experience, prompt after
sales service, good customer relations and network, awards and recognitions to prove consistent
quality, judicious purchase of materials, reputation and brand image of its quality products, talented
technical and marketing personnel and supporting management which gives leadership and
acceptability in the market.
The entry of branded tyre majors including multinational corporations in retreading industry may be a
threat to the Company, however, it creates awareness in the customers about retreading and its
quality. Since the ability of the retreading sector to capture potential replacement demand would
depend on the awareness among customers of the quality and benefits of retreading, as the
customers further know tyre retreading, the market will expand at a fabulous speed.
Another area of concern for retreading industry is the unhealthy competition from small and
unorganized players who are producing poor quality retreads which may hurt the consumer
confidence in retreading. We are confident that customers have faith in our products and we shall be
able to get reasonable market share in the short term.
c) Outlook
With the advancement of technology and economies of scale, retreading has reached a level of quality
and sophistication unprecedented in its history, and now it has overcome its past reputation and
become part of established fleet management practice for commercial and utility operations. Since
the mentality of the market towards retreading has changed and it became an integral element of the
tyre market, the scope for our business expansion is high.
Retreading is not only cost effective, but dependable, reliable, safe and environment friendly. We are
of the view that Eastern Treads can use this opportunity to continue its passionate journey towards
customer delight and loyalty. We have developed business plans to exploit the market to become the
most successful retreader with the highest quality products, delivering the best possible return on
investment to the fleets.
d) Risks and Concerns
Our growth is fully depending on tyre replacement market, which depends on various factors like
economic growth, infrastructural development, growth in the automobile industry and transportation
etc. The Company is exposed to various risks which are normal in any business enterprise. The main
ones and the steps undertaken to mitigate these risks are mentioned below:
Financial Risk
Credit risk on account of material supplied to customers has been reduced by the introduction of cash
and carry policy, advance and bank guarantee from the customers. The risk of delayed payment from
State Transport Corporations is controlled and managed by continuous follow-up.
31
Increase in Raw Material Price

Normal fluctuations in raw material prices are generally considered while fixing product prices to the
customers. However the unprecedented fluctuations have serious impact on profitability till prices are
revised to meet the costs, especially in case of exports and supply to Sate Transport Corporations and
others, based on fixed price contracts.
The petroleum based raw material prices are linked to the movement in crude oil prices and the
Natural rubber price is subject to production volatility resulting from speculating activities and natural
causes. While demand of tyre retreading materials in the industry is expected to be healthy, cost
pressures remains as a challenge. With the rupee depreciating against the US dollar, the expensive
raw material import has emerged as the biggest concern.
Changes in Government Policies
Changes in government policies will affect the Company's financial position or investments.
Operational Risk
Preventive maintenance has been carried out to achieve high level of machine availability. Adequate
inventory of stocks at each stage of operation is maintained to keep production going on in case of any
breakdown.
Product Risk
Research and development is being undertaken to deliver better products, service and value to the
customers.
e) Internal Control System and their Adequacy
Your Company has a proper and adequate system of internal controls, to ensure that all assets are
safeguarded and protected against loss from unauthorized use or disposal and that the transactions
are authorised, recorded and reported correctly. The internal control is supplemented by an extensive
programme of internal, external audits and periodic review by the top management and by the Audit
Committee of the Board of Directors.
We have our own internal audit department which evaluates legal and compliance issues and
supports in assessment of Internal Control Systems and identification of other important issues as a
powerful tool for risk control and governance. The system is designed to adequately ensure the
reliability of financial and other records for preparing financial information and other data and for
maintaining accountability of our assets. The external auditors have evaluated the system of internal
controls in the Company and have reported that the same is adequate and commensurate with the
size of the Company and the nature of its business.

Discussion on Financial Performance with respect to Operational Performance

(Please refer to Directors' Report on Operations)
g)
Material Developments in Human Resources and Industrial Relations

The dedication and hard work of productive and dynamic goal oriented team is the key factor to the
success of our Company. We believe that hiring the right personnel and proper retaining is the
decisive factor for this success. To keep the Company and its human resource competitive, experts
were engaged to train the employees at various levels.
We have actively involved to empower our employees through greater knowledge, team spirit and to
develop greater sense of accountability. The Company lays greater prominence on augmenting
people performance through various people processes. It begins with best practices in recruiting
people and moves through learning and development, engagement, employee feedback and rewards
and recognition.
The Company conducts programs such as TQM to create team synergy. Our quality circles meet to
exchange their experiences and to offer suggestions and improvements for the system. Our intensive
training programs encourage team work and develop the employees to face future challenges. The
Company expects an exponential growth, because of this Total Employee Involvement Programme.
The Company has 405 employees in its rolls as on 31/03/2014. Employee relations remained cordial
and the work atmosphere remained congenial during the year.

Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs are expensed in the absence of outlay on qualifying assets.
Segment Reporting
In the absence of more than one distinguishable business/ geographical segment, segment information is
not given.
Taxes on Income
Income tax expense comprises current tax and deferred tax charge or credit. The current tax is
determined as the amount of tax payable in respect of the estimated taxable income of the period. The
deferred tax charge or credit is recognised using prevailing enacted or substantively enacted tax rates.
Where there are unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward losses, deferred tax asset are recognised only
if there is virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Other deferred tax assets are recognised only to
the extent there is reasonable certainty of realisation in future. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each
Balance Sheet date based on the developments during the period.
MAT Credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the
company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. In the year in which the MAT credit
becomes eligible to be recognised as an asset in accordance with the recommendations contained in the
guidance note issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the said asset is created by way
of a credit to the profit and loss account and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The company reviews the
same at each Balance Sheet date and writes down the carrying amount of MAT credit entitlement to the
extent there is no longer convincing evidence to the effect that company will pay normal Income Tax during
the specified period.
42
Impairment of Assets
The carrying amount of assets is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date if there is any indication of
impairment based on internal/external factors. An impairment loss will be recognised wherever the
carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is
greater of the assets net selling price and value in use. In assessing the value in use; the estimated future
cash flows are discounted to the present value using the weighted average cost of capital.
Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
The company creates a provision when there is a present obligation as a result of past event that probably
requires an outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of obligation. A
disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation that may, but probably will
not, require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect
of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made. Contingent
assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements.
