Notes

1 The Company’s agriculture business is seasonal and the first quarter results include the peak sales of the 2002 Kharif season.
2. The progress and spread of the South West monsoon this year so far has been poor. If this situation continues, we may see an impact on our revenues and profitability.
3. The figures for the 1st quarter of the previous year have been rearranged wherever necessary to make them comparable.
4. The EPS of the 1st Quarter of the previous year has been calculated on the share capital enhanced by issue of Bonus Shares in the ratio of 1:1 in September, 2001, in accordance with the AS-17 (Earning Per Share) issued by The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
5. The Company has one segment of activity namely "Agriculture Inputs".
6. The above results were taken on record by the Directors in their meeting held on Tuesday, 23rd July, 2002.
