Notes:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. The previous period figures have been regrouped/rearranged wherever necessary.

This has been taken on record in the board meeting of date.
