5.The auditors' report on the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31st March 2005 contains the following comment :

"The Company has, during the period 1995 to 2003, invested Rs 2,764.50 lacs in SPIC Electric Power Corporation Private Limited for which no provision for permanent diminution in value has been considered necessary by the management. In view of the considerable delay in the implementation of the project, we are unable to express an opinion on the provision, if any, required in respect of the said investment''.

Board's comment : The company has, through sustained efforts for identifying a partner for implementing the project, during the year entered into a Memorandum Of Understanding with a party which provides for submission of a detailed technical specification and cost structure of the engineering, procurement, construction, erection and commissioning of the complete project and to develop a plan of finance for the project to achieve early financial closure. In view of these developments the management is hopeful of making progress in the project. As such, no provision for permanent diminution in the value of investment is considered necessary at this stage.

 
The above Audited financial results were approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on 7th June, 2005.
