1. The Hon'ble High Courts of Judicature at Madras and Andhra Pradesh approved
the Scheme of Arrangement of demerger of the business of the Farm Inputs
Division (FIND) to Coromandel Fertilisers Limited and the merger of Parry &
Company Limited and the Mofussil Warehouse and Trading Company Limited (wholly
owned subsidiaries of the Company) with the Company effective 01-04-2003.
Accordingly the effect of the said scheme has been considered in the above
results.
2. The basic minimum price of sugarcane for the sugar year 2002-03 of
Rs.695/M.T notified by the Central Government on 9th January, 2003 has been
legally challenged by the South Indian Sugar Mills Association (of which the
company is a member), and the matter is sub-judice. Further a minimum price of
Rs 730/M.T has been notified for the sugar year 2003-2004. This is also being
legally challenged. Based on legal advice, pending disposal of the case, no
provision has been considered in the above results.
3. The shareholders of the company at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on
January 12, 2004 approved the proposal of adjusting the dimunition in the value
of some of the fixed assets against the balance lying in the Share Premium
Account (henceforth Securities Premium Account) for an amount not exceeding
Rs.30 Crores. The impact of the proposal will be given effect to on receipt of
confirmation of the Honourable High Court of Judicature at Madras.
4. Figures for the previous year have been regrouped wherever necessary.
However, they are not comparable with the current year's figures as the current
year's figures are after giving effect to the Scheme consequent to the High
Court Order as mentioned in Note 1 above.
5. The Statutory Auditors of the Company have carried out a Limited Review of
Unaudited Financial Results for the 3 Quarters ended December 31, 2003.
