Furthermore, the company has decided to increase its authorized share capital from Rs2 billion to Rs3bn in this regard.
The Company for the first three months period ended March 31st, 2020, was able to achieve Net Sales of Rs2,111 million and Net Profit of Rs7 million compared to Net Sales of Rs2,544 million and Net Profit of Rs115 million achieved during the corresponding quarter last year.
