In the matter of OTS relating to Mrs. Anjana Pati, Producer


of M/s. Mayur Films, Baripada the Board made a careful study of the request
for further rebate on interest component beyond 50% already offered to her.
Also the Board noted the outstanding position on OTS account of
Rs.10,46,681.20 after deposit of Rs.1,12,000/- which is inclusive of
application money. In considering her appeal for enhancement of rebate in
the interest component, the Board proposed to acquire firsthand information
about the present financial status of Mrs. Pati. The Board also desired to
assess the value of her assets offered as collateral security against the loan.
Board suggested Managing Director to contact the Collector & District
Magistrate, Mayurbhanj District with a request to make a complete
evaluation of the assets and economic status of the producer and assess the
present valuation of the properties for consideration of the above proposal.

The Board also took note of the developments in case of

interest was earlier approved by the Board.

Item No.4. OTS of M/s. R. S. Production.

In the case of M/s. R. S. Production, the party had sought


for further time extension for repayment of balance OTS amount. The Board
after careful consideration permitted time up till 31.03.2006 for final

annum will be charged to the party on the reducing balance levied w.e.f.
31.03.2005 till entire dues are liquidated.

Item No.6. Consideration for sanction of subsidy in favour of M/s.


Shree Ganesh Production.

The Board after careful study of the above subsidy proposal


of the producer decided to sanction subsidy of Rs.3.50 lakhs in favour of the
producer as a special case due to the following reasons considering the fact
that subsidy is not sanctioned due to pending bills of Kalinga Studio.
i. A portion of long outstanding dues of Kalinga Studios Ltd.
pending against the producer can be adjusted out of it and
balance shortfall may be met from the resources as and
when available. This would avoid legal expenses to be
incurred by OFDC for recovery of the dues and the studio
can reduce their loan obligation with OFDC Ltd.
ii. Finally, the unspent balance available in subsidy account
can be appropriately utilized as per the provision
incorporated in GO. No.XVIII-HI-7/03-4421 dt:11.03.2004
of Industries Department while releasing subsidy to the
corporation.
Further the Board authorised the Managing Director to give
effect of such sanction looking into the provisions in the subsidy rule.

The Board ratified the action taken by the Managing
Director for repair and maintenance of the office building and authorised him
to take up the maintenance work observing required formalities.

the 2nd computer with a financial involvement up to Rs.50,000/- only.
Managing Director is authorised to arrange for procurement observing
required formalities.

Item No.9. Modification of the decision of the Board regarding re-


designating both the Managers as Deputy General
Managers – position of other promotion cases for
review.

The Board took note of the decisions taken by the previous


Board of Directors in promoting some employees, regularizing some
employees etc. in violation of rules / guidelines. The Board advised the
Managing Director to submit a detail report to the Govt. in this regard. It
may be legally examined whether these orders can be reversed and placed in
next Board.

Item No.10. Proposal for Joint Venture of Kalinga Studios Ltd. -


Inter-Ministerial Review Meeting held on 14.09.2005 at
3.30 PM on the performance of State PSUs.

The Board perused the proposal for Joint Venture of

Item No.11. Any other item with the permission of the Chair –
Pending cases of OTS 2003.

The Board had taken a decision during October 2003 to


introduce OTS for the loan dues of the corporation. The crystallized OTS
dues were to be cleared by 31.03.2004. The then Managing Director took a
decision to extend the due date of payment till 30.06.2004. Interest was
calculated up to the end of the month in which the application was received.
Subsequently the Board reopened the OTS during January 2005, stipulating
31.01.2005 as the last date of receipt of application and 31.03.2005 as the
due date by which the OTS dues is to be paid. All applications received after
the cut off date of OTS 2003 were also considered. Interest was calculated up
to 31.01.05 to arrive at the crystallized amount.
Subsequently the Board decided to extend the due date of
payment of OTS dues till 31.08.2005. A number of requests are being
received to allow more time to the loanees to clear the OTS dues. After due
deliberation, the Board decided as follows.

“Loanees who had applied to avail OTS, but failed to repay


the OTS amount fully by 31.08.2005, in spite of two extensions will be
required to pay interest @ 12% on the reducing balance of the crystallized
amount after 31.03.2005 till the OTS dues are fully repaid. If the entire dues
along with interest are not fully repaid by 31.03.2006, the OTS offer stands
automatically cancelled.

All applicants whose OTS applications have been


considered earlier will be informed accordingly”.

The Board further decided to reopen the OTS till


31.12.2005 i.e. last date of receipt of application will be 31.12.2005 and
interest will be calculated up to that date. The applicants will be required to
repay the crystallized OTS dues by 31.03.2006 failing which the offer stands
automatically cancelled.

The Board also decided to come out with a policy to


rephase the loan portfolios.

In the first meeting of the Audit Committee, Sri Aurobinda


Rath, ACA, M/s. Chand & Co., Chartered Accountant, Statutory Auditors of
the corporation pointed out that the corporation has maintained its accounts
on mercantile basis and as such incomes are accounted for on accrual basis.
As a result, inflated profit is being arrived at. The committee after a detailed
deliberation, decided to explore the possibilities of providing a portion of
income receivable as doubtful debt to arrive at a realistic picture without
affecting the legal proceedings against the entrepreneurs.

It was further decided to create an interest suspense

The Board may kindly consider.

Item No.8. OTS proposals of the corporation.

The corporation has devised an OTS Policy in the year


2003 w.e.f. 01.10.2003. The said policy has been extended from time to time
and the currency of the policy is valid up to 31.12.2005 for submission and
31.03.2006 for settlement

In the said policy the loanees sanctioned loans prior to


01.04.1999 have been eligible for settlement subject to fulfillment of other
criterias. These loanees have been given ample opportunities under the
policy as the said policy has been extended time to time from dt:31.03.2004
till 31.03.2006. There are around 8 nos. of cases now who have been
deprived of OTS under the said policy since they were sanctioned with the
loan after 1999. In view of the same, it is proposed to extend the policy to the
entrepreneurs who have been sanctioned loan on or after 01.04.1999 to
31.12.2002.

It has been observed that the OTS policy and the process of
settlement equally applicable to the entrepreneurs without considering the
ability for repayment, solvency, status, marketability of the securities and the
financial position of the loanees and the guarantors. As a result the willful
defaulters take the advantage of the policy where as the genuine defaulters
suffer. In view of the above, it is therefore proposed that all the OTS
proposals pending as well as new shall be considered on case to case basis by
a committee involving the concerned Collectors/his representative.

Item No.9. Proposal for Joint Venture of Kalinga Studios Ltd.

The summary record of the meeting of the Public &


Cooperative Restructuring Committee (PCERC) held on 02.11.2005 on
privatization of Kalinga Studios Ltd. may kindly be seen at P-128/C.

The Industries Department had recommended for


conversion of Kalinga Studios Ltd. to a Joint Venture. However, the PCERC
has decided first to record the land now in possession of Kalinga Studios Ltd.
in its name before taking any action on the recommendation of IDCG.
Accordingly, the Industries Department vide its letter at P-130/C has moved
the GA Department to record the land in possession of Kalinga Studios Ltd.
in its name.

In this connection it may be informed that the land of 25


Acres given possession to Kalinga Studios Ltd. was earlier identified as forest
land initially, but later it has been converted to a non-forest land in the
revenue record as evident from the minutes of the discussion held on
24.10.2002 under the Chairmanship of Principal Secretary to Govt.,
Industries Department where the Director, Estates, the Dy. Secretary to
Govt., Revenue Department and the ADM, Khurda were present.
