REGISTATION:

The Society was registered on 7th September, 1953

under the provisions of Act II, of 1912.

In 1952 shortage of foreign exchange started
creating difficulties for the importers. Giving
careful thought to the problem, the shop owners
of Nila Gumbad chalked out a plan to establish a
bicycle-manufacturing factory within the country
on cooperative basis. As such 22 persons got
together and laid the foundation of a cooperative
society. Its first meeting was held on 17th July 1953,
later on 7th September 1953, the Society was
registered under section 9 of cooperative societies
Act II of 1912.

Initially, only a few spare parts of bicycles were
manufactured locally and about 90% spare parts
were import from abroad. With the passage of
time the situation started improving and today
almost 98% bicycles spare parts are being
manufactured in house or through vendors.

SUGGESTIONS / PROPOSALS FOR
BETTERMENT OF THE SOCIETY:
Before independence the Cooperative movement was at full swing both in
industrial and agriculture sector.

After independence two major industrial units namely, Rahwli Cooperative

Sugar Mill and Sutlej Textile inherited by Pakistan. In the beginning various
attractions were given to the industry and two cycle units came to existence
under umbrella of Cooperative.

In order to solve the residential problem the Government gave attraction to

the private sector to establish residential colonies by availing concessions
available under the Cooperative but at this moment it looks as the
department has achieved its targets , therefore, all concession have been
withdrawn resultantly the process for registration under cooperative has
hurt at a large

26
We as an industrial unit is suffering in the hands of our mother bank (Punjab
provincial cooperative bank) who are charging 16% of interest just to kill our
industry, no other concession like income tax or preferential rates of Sui Gas
or Electricity or any other benefits are available.

On the contrary, Import of bicycles in to Pakistan is free of sales tax. We pay

sale tax 17% on the import of raw material and purchases which is
adjustable against the payment of sales tax to Government on the sales of
our products of bicycles. An amount of Rs.274,547,740.00 is stuck up with
FBR, which is refundable to us.

Our industry is capable to meet the cycle demand of the country but the
free imports are allowed and under invoicing are being done to destroy this
oldest industrial unit of cooperative in Pakistan.

We therefore, humbly request you to please take up the matter with the
central Government to stop the import of under invoiced cycle in Pakistan
to keep this unit alive.

Thank you.
