Notes:
- The Government has by Notification
dated 16 April 2003 further revised the Retention Price
of Urea with effect from 1 July 1997 impact of which aggregating
Rs.27.08 Crores (including Rs 15.03 Crores charged to Sales
Revenue) has been appropriately dealt with in drawing the
results for the quarter and year ended 31 March 2003. Consequently,
the provision for contingency of Rs.26.09 crores has been
written back since the same is no longer required.
- As in the earlier years, the Auditors
have qualified their report on accounts for the year ended
31 March 2002 with regard to claims for escalation of input
costs and other claims on Urea, which have been accounted
pending final issuance of the Government Notification. The
adjustments are made in the accounts as and when the Notifications
are issued.
- The Scheme of Amalgamation of Hind
Lever Chemicals Limited (HLCL) with the Company duly approved
by the Board, will be filed with the respective High Courts
shortly. On obtaining necessary statutory approvals, the
Scheme shall be operative from Appointed Date of 1 April
2002. The above statement does not include results of HLCL.
- The previous period figures have been
regrouped/rearranged wherever necessary.
This
has been taken on record in the board meeting of date.
