MIRC ELECTRONICS LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2009-2010

DIRECTOR'S REPORT

We are delighted to present the 29th Annual Report on our business and
operations together with the audited accounts of the Company for the
financial year ended 31st March, 2010. The financial highlights for the
year under review are as under:

Global risk appetite to dictate trend; derivatives expiry may cause volatility


Inflow from foreign funds will continue to dictate the trend on the domestic bourses next week as traders roll over positions in the derivatives segment from June 2010 series to the July 2010 series ahead of the expiry of the near-month June 2010 contracts on Thursday, 24 June 2010. The key global event next week is a meeting of the US Federal Reserve on interest rates.


Frontline stocks outperform side counters


Anticipation of robust corporate financial performance boosted the domestic bourses after front line companies paid higher advance taxes for the first quarter ended June 2010. Rally in world stocks aided the rally on the domestic bourses as euro zone debt worries eased. The market rose in four out of five trading sessions last week.

Markets end choppy, get all the action


The markets ended the choppy session lower, after breaking the winning streak. The Sensex ended on a sluggish note as RIL AGM did not turned out to be an eventful one. Metal, oil & gas, and auto stocks also dragged index down, while selective buyinh was seen in index pivotals and sectors.

Risk element afloat in Asian stocks


Markets end mixed in a choppy session ahead of weekends

The Asian markets ended mixed ahead of the weekends, not being able to post much of gains as the Dollar appreciated under 1.2400 and the DOW futures dillydallied between positive and negative territory. The pessimistic US data curbed the buying enthusiasm triggered by yesterday's reports of Spanish Treasury raising 3.479 billion euros in a bond sale. The markets had a typically lackluster outing and a correction in crude oil and commodities kept the risk element afloat in the asset markets.

Market snaps seven-day rally; breadth weak


The key benchmark indices lost ground in the second half of the day's trading session after a firm start which pushed the market to 1-1/2 month high. Profit booking was a key culprit causing market to snap a seven-day rally. Weakness in shares of the Mukesh and Anil Ambani pack emerged after the Mukesh Ambani gave no details of reconciliation between the two brothers at Reliance Industries' (RIL) annual general meeting.

Yellow metal strikes new record high


Bullion metals rise due to shaky economic data

Bullion metal prices ended substantially higher on Thursday, 17 June 2010 at Comex. Prices rose as mixed economic data hit Wall Street today, which cautioned investors regarding the movement of equities in near term. Precious metals are often viewed as good alternates for investment in a fluctuating market.

RIL to hog the headlines!


Pursue your goals even in the face of difficulties, and convert adversities into opportunities. – Dhirubhai Ambani.

The Ambani brothers have taken their father’s advice and have hopefully left behind their adversities. How well they turn them into opportunities, will be visible somewhat today as RIL holds its much-anticipated AGM in Mumbai. We expect a rather subdued start to the day but Reliance group companies could hog more limelight as we wrap up another good week. Emotions may run high in the wake of the rapprochements between the two estranged Ambani siblings. Reports point to a few big-bang announcements by Mukesh Ambani. A word of caution here. Reliance and ADAG group shares have rallied in recent past. It won’t be a bad idea to adopt the ‘sell on news’ strategy and lock in some gains in these counters.
