Notes:

  1. Profitability for the current quarter has been affected due to continued high level of prices of raw materials, power and fuel.

  2. The company has an investment in equity of Rs.2764.50 lacs in it's subsidiary, SPIC Electric Power Corporation (Private) Limited (SEPC), formed for setting up a 525 MW coal based power plant at Tuticorin. SEPC has filed a writ petition seeking a direction to TNEB for early resolution of outstanding issues, the outcome of which is awaited.

  3. In order to comply with Accounting Standard 26 - 'Intangible Assets' which has become mandatory with effect from 1st April, 2003, the company has decided to amortise the license fee for patent rights and technical information (intangible assets) over five years, with retrospective effect. Consequently the difference between the restated and original carrying amounts as at 1st April, 2003 of Rs. 1159 lacs (net of adjustment for deferred taxation of Rs 648 lacs) has been adjusted to opening general reserve as at 1st April, 2003. As a result of the change, the depreciation charge for the current quarter is lower by Rs. 102 lacs. Figures of the quarter and half year ended 30th September, 2002 have been recast, for the said change in the accounting policy, to make it comparable to those of the current quarter and half year.

  4. During the quarter, 199 investor complaints were received, all of which were disposed off by the company. The only complaint that was pending at the beginning of the quarter was resolved during the current quarter

  5. The statutory auditors of the company have carried out a limited review of the unaudited financial results for the quarter ended 30th September, 2003.

The above unaudited financial results have been taken on record by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on 29th October, 2003.
