Message of the
CHAIRMAN
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
W
hereas the Global economy was slowly limping back to normalcy,
2009 – 10 was a landmark year for Kesoram. The turnover of your
company has crossed the Rs 5000 crore mark for the first time.
Your company’s core business segments – Cement and Tyre – have shown
impressive growth.
The cement units have posted the highest ever production figures. The Tyre
section has shown commendable growth in domestic sales and exports – with
an increase in market share.
Another significant achievement has been the scheduled completion of
expansion projects. At Vasavadatta Cement, the 4th Unit and a Thermal Power
Plant started commercial production in August 2009 and your Company’s
world-class Greenfield facility for Tyres at Haridwar, Uttarakhand, started
commercial production of Truck/Bus Radial Tyres and Motor Cycle/ LCV Tyres
during the year.
Your company has also faced challenges very successfully. The surplus capacity
in the Indian Cement Industry via-a-vis the growth rate in infrastructure has
put pressure on profits. Steep increase in raw material prices in last two
quarters of the year adversely affected the Tyre Industry.
All the above indicates that your Company is now poised to reap the benefits
of oncoming economic growth in the country. Steady Government thrusts on
infrastructure, increased spending on social measures as well as on employment
generation are all factors that will provide further impetus to the growth of
the Indian economy.
I extend my thanks to my colleagues and all employees and other stakeholders
who have made what Kesoram is today and will be taking it to the next higher
level tomorrow.
I sincerely thank my fellow shareholders for their continuous support.
Basant Kumar Birla

AUDIT REPORT
As regards paragraphs 3.1(b) and 3.2(a) referred to by the Auditors in its Report, the physical verification of the fixed assets (in phased
manner) and inventories as referred in para nos. 3.1(b) and 3.2(a) respectively at the Spun Pipes & Foundries Section of the Company,
could not be carried out due to continued suspension of work and barricade in front of the factory gate by a section of workers at the
said Section. So far as paragraphs 3.9(b) and 3.16 of the report are concerned, the same are self-explanatory and need no further
explanation.
Regarding the paragraph 3.19 of the Report, the neccessary security or charge pending to be created in respect of Short-term Debentures
will be created within the stipulated time provided by law if not redeemed before. Further, the immovable properties of Birla Tyres, a
Section of the Company at Uttarakhand, could not be created due to continuing verification of search report of the said properties by
the empanelled lawyer of the Lead Banker, State Bank of India. The Short-term Debentures issued during the year were redeemed
before the security could have been created within the stipulated period provided by law.
Further, paragraph 4(f) referred to by the Auditors’ in its Report is self-explanatory and requires no explanation.
GENERAL REVIEW
During the year under review our turnover for the first time crossed Rs.5,000 Crore. This has been primarily due to the increase in sales
of Tyre Section from Birla Tyres Unit-II at Laksar, Haridwar. Birla Tyres Unit-III and Unit-IV related to Truck / Bus Radial and Motor Cycle
/ LCV tyres started Commercial Production in March, 2010 and October, 2009 respectively. Capacity at Vasavadatta Cement was also
increased which started Commercial Production in August, 2009.
The total benefit in top line and bottom line for all these expansions will get reflected in the coming year.
The profitability of the Company during the year has also increased due to good results of Cement Sections and enhanced capacity
of Tyre Sections besides good treasury management and cost control effected throughout the Company. Rayon Section also showed
higher profitability due to strong domestic demand.
Work at Spun Pipe Section continues to be under suspension.
CEMENT SECTIONS
Vasavadatta Cement
Your Directors are pleased to report that the expansion undertaken at this section by setting up the 4th Unit comprising of Cement capacity
of 1.65 million ton per annum and thermal power plant of 17.5 MW has been completed. After completion of trial run, commercial
production of Cement has started from 7th August, 2009.
Operational performance of this section continues to be good and it has achieved highest ever production of Clinker as well as Cement
during the year. Production figures of this section given hereunder include 1,29,300 metric ton of clinker and 76,610 metric ton of
cement produced during trial run of the 4th Unit:

Clinker
42,98,390
34,41,496
Cement
42,03,373
39,24,589
Cement dispatches were adversely affected due to non-availability of adequate wagons and as a result clinker to the extent of 4,52,045
metric ton was sold during the year.
The Section has achieved higher production despite several challenges such as substantial build-up of new capacity by other
companies in the industry, lack of corresponding pickup in demand, shortage of rail wagons for movement of cement, coal and raw
materials and unsatisfactory coal availability position in absence of adequate coal linkage arrangements. However, quality of its
products, established brand image and proper logistic management have enabled the section to achieve good performance in a year
characterized by continued slowdown in the construction sector and weak monsoon. Due to surplus capacity, cement prices were not
able to keep pace with rising costs for major part of the year resulting in pressure on margins. Stimulus measures undertaken by the
Government, particularly reduction in excise duty, encouragement to infrastructure development and improving liquidity in the economy
have however, helped to maintain the growth momentum.
Captive power generation was 445.07 million KWH during the year under review as against 338.12 million KWH during the previous
year. Captive power generation catered to about 98% of the total power requirement of the section. 54.15 million KWH being 12.17%
of the power generated from the power plants was sold to Gulbarga Electricity Supply Company Ltd. The unit is also exploring the
possibilities of power generation from Waste Heat Recovery System which will give considerable advantage in cost of power generation.
Further, the Company is also exploring possibilities of further expansion or a Green field unit in nearby area.
As a part of corporate social responsibility, the unit has undertaken various social welfare and community development activities such
as construction of water tank and children’s park, plantation of trees, water conservation, health camps, distribution of agricultural
implements to the villagers, vocational training and skill development activities, etc. in its surrounding areas.
In the year 2009-10, the Section received two prizes in the ‘Mines Safety Week’ under the aegis of DGMS - Drilling & Blasting First
Prize and Method of Working 2nd Prize. Also in the various safety competitions conducted on the occasion of ‘Gulbarga Region Industrial
Safety Day 2010’ (GRISD) celebration, our employees bagged various prizes.
Apart from the above, seven Scout & Guide students of our School - Vasavadatta Vidya Vihar have won recently, the coveted Award
of ‘Rashtrapati Puraskar’.
Industrial relations with the employees were good during the year.
Kesoram Cement
Production figures of this Section are as under:

(Metric Ton)
(Metric Ton)
Clinker
11,61,200
10,97,175
Cement
13,78,833
15,11,615
This Section also has achieved highest ever production of Clinker. However, Cement production and dispatches were adversely affected
due to Telangana agitation and paucity of Railway wagons for movement of cement. Consequently, the Section had to sell 55,024
metric ton of clinker. There was substantial capacity expansion also in Andhra Pradesh, which had put pressure on sales realizations
and profitability of the Section. However, from the month of March 2010, cement prices are improving and are expected to improve
further in coming months.
The unit has built-up an excellent brand image of its blended cement “BIRLA SHAKTI” and was able to market about 81% of its total
output in PPC cement segment.
There has been substantial increase in cost of raw materials and coal. However, Management has taken various control measures
to keep the cost of cement under control.
16
2009-10
ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS
Captive Thermal Power Plant of this Section generated 113.29 million KWH of power, out of which 0.03 million KWH were supplied
to APTRANSCO. In this Section, about 82% of the power requirement of the cement plant is met from the Captive generation and
balance power was purchased from APTRANSCO. Captive Power Plant plays a vital role in improving the cost competitiveness and
providing quality power to the Section. In view of this, the Section is considering the feasibility of power generation by Waste Heat
Recovery System.
The suit challenging the validity of imposition of Electricity Duty on captive power generation @ 25 paise per Unit from 17.07.2003 by
the Government of Andhra Pradesh is still pending before the Hon’ble High Court of Andhra Pradesh.
This Section bagged the FAPCCI (Federation of Andhra Pradesh Chambers of Commerce & Industry) Award of EXCELLENCE IN
WORKERS’ WELFARE for the year 2008-09, which was presented by the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh Sri K.
Rosaiah on 5th April 2010.
Basantnagar Limestone Mines of this Section bagged two 1st prizes for “Environmental & Health Management” and “Maintenance and
Operation of Heavy Earth Moving Equipments” and 2nd prize for “Drilling and Blasting” from the Director General of Mines Safety,
Hyderabad during the Mines Safety Week celebrations.
As a part of corporate social responsibility, the Section is continuing the rural and community development and welfare activities in
nearby villages by running of Agricultural Demonstration Farm, Model Dairy Farm, Vocational Training Centre for Youth, Distribution of
agricultural implements, Sewing Machines, Tri-cycles for physically challenged people, Animal Health Camps, Blood Donation Camps,
Pulse Polio Programs and promotion of Self Help Groups of women for their economic development etc.
Industrial relations were cordial during the year.
BIRLA TYRES SECTIONS
The gross turnover of the Section this year has been Rs.2,849.62 Crore as compared to Rs.1,947.23 crore showing an increase of
about 46.34% compared to last year. In spite of stiff competition, we have been able to increase our market share from 15% to 18%.
The export sales for the year under review amounted to Rs 361.48 crore as against Rs 240.41 crore in the previous year.
Though the Section has recorded commendable sales growth but due to sharp increase in raw material prices particularly of rubber in
quarter III and quarter IV, profitability has been adversely affected.
The Company’s world class Green field facility for production of Motor Cycle/LCV and Truck/ Bus Radial tyres started commercial
production in October, 2009 and March, 2010 respectively.
The board has approved further expansion of capacity to produce Truck/Bus Radial tyres by 85 MT/day at Haridwar and for Passenger
Car Radial tyres of 80 MT/day at Balasore involving capital outlay of Rs. 350 Crore and Rs. 450 Crore respectively. The civil construction
for the above expansions is in full swing and order for the major machineries and equipments have already been placed. The commercial
productions in both the projects are likely to commence by March, 2011.
The Section continues to have the distinction of being certified for ISO-9001, TS-16949, ISO-14001, SA-8000, OSHAS-18001 and
TPM.
Relations with employees have been cordial and conducive to growth during the year.
RAYON & TRANSPARENT PAPER SECTIONS
Amidst challenging environment, performance of VFY (Viscose Filament Yarn) business is satisfactory. Strong domestic demand
and higher penetration in export market led to substantial growth in volumes, coupled with reduction in the cost of all the major raw
materials – pulp and sulphur, the Section’s operating margin improved in spite of the steep hike in coal & electricity costs. Margins in
future, are likely to decline from current level due to upward trend in pulp and sulphur prices. Export demands are also likely to be
impacted due to stiff competition from China and the imposition of Anti-dumping duty by the Government has not been of much help
in arresting cheap imports in the country. The exports were 612 M.T. against 521 M.T. of previous year.
The T.P (Transparent Paper) business continues with unfavourable market environment resulting into poor realization mainly due to
competition with cheaper imports & substitutes. As a result of the above, again the production capacity of this Section could not be fully
utilized. The exports were 293 M.T. against 306 M.T. of previous year. The recent hike in the rate of Excise Duty will further impact
the demand and profitability of this product.
The performance of Section’s chemical business was satisfactory despite the prevailing global economic conditions and cheap
imports.
Relations with the employees were cordial during the year.
17
SPUN PIPES SECTION
The factory of this Section continues to be under suspension of work on and from 2nd May, 2008. The blockade and barricade in front
of the factory gate is continuing, as a result finished goods and other material lying inside the factory could not be removed. All finished
goods outside the factory have been sold.
During the year Rs 4.53 crore were recovered against old outstanding while sale was of Rs.0.35 crore only.
HINDUSTHAN HEAVY CHEMICALS SECTION
The production figures of the Section were as under :
Production
2009-10
2008-09
Caustic Soda Lye
11,663 MT
11,737 M.T.
Sulphuric Acid
19,061 MT
19,139 M.T.
Hydrogen Gas
7,53,453 M
8,18,882 M3
3
Demand for Caustic Soda was subdued during the year due to slow down in Aluminium sector. However, there was improvement in
demand for joint products – Chlorine and Hydrochloric Acid – towards the end of the year. Production of Caustic Soda was affected due
to frequent breakdowns and power trippings. Production of Hydrogen Gas was lower due to lesser demand from Vanaspati Industry
in the first half of the year but improved considerably towards end of the year.
The Section continues to enjoy certificates for Quality and Environment management under ISO-9001-2000 and ISO-14001-2004.
The Section takes various measures on its own and also in collaboration with various government agencies for improving awareness
of environment and safety.
Relations with employees continue to be cordial.
EXCISE DUTY
During the year under review a sum of Rs 289.98 crore (Rs 414.35 crore in 2008-09) was paid on account of Excise Duty on various
products manufactured and sold by your Company.

ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS
ANNEXURE“B”
REPORT ON MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
A.
INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT
CEMENT
Indian Cement Industry continues to be the second largest cement producer in the world with installed capacity of 244.69 million
Ton.
The Indian Cement Industry had a growth of 12% in the year under review as compared to 8% in previous year in spite of the global
financial melt down affecting the entire world economy including India.
During the year under review, Cement Industry has achieved capacity utilization of 85% as against 88% in preceding year, which has
dropped mainly due to augmentation of new capacity.
The cement production and consumption in India has recorded growth of 12% and 13% respectively over preceding year but the cement
production and consumption in Southern Region, where both the cement Plants of the Company are situated have been only 9% & 5%
respectively due to sizable addition of new capacity which has put pressure on Cement prices as well.
TYRE
The Indian Tyre Industry is mainly dominated by the organized sector and consists of five major players who together account for
approximately 85% of the Industry’s turnover. These companies have a presence in all the major segments of the Tyre Industry –
the replacement market, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) as well as export and consequently, offer the consumer a well
diversified product mix.
In the Indian Tyre Industry commercial vehicle tyres take the lead and account for approximately 65% of the Industry’s turnover. As
a result, the growth of the entire Tyre Industry depends on primary factors like agricultural growth, overall GDP growth, industrial
production, growth in vehicle demand and secondary factors like infrastructure development, prevailing interest rates and financing
options. Another significant difference between the Indian and the global Tyre Industry is the extent of radialisation in the commercial
vehicle tyres. Globally, commercial vehicle tyres are radialized to the extent of 70% as compared to India where the radialisation levels
in this segment until last year was only 10%. However, this trend is gradually changing and it is expected that radialisation levels will
go up to the extent of 20-25% in the next 2 years. The major domestic players have announced significant expansion plans to meet
the growing demand for commercial vehicle radial tyres.
RAYON & TRANSPARENT PAPER
There is no growth in the production capacities in the country. The demand for Viscose Filament Yarn (VFY) is expected to be moderate
in the short to medium term in view of the high competition with other fibres and increased imports in the country.
Further, the Transparent Paper (TP) manufacturing is not viable due to high cost of inputs, cheap substitutes resulting into restricted
demand.
Looking to erratic demand of both the products, there does not appear to be any further scope of development.
SPUN PIPES
The Industry witnessed sluggish demand during the first half of the year under review. While demand for pipes has picked up but Cast
Iron pipes continue to face very stiff competition from Ductile pipes. As the section is under Suspension of Work since 2nd May 2008,
no comments are made under the heads “Opportunities & Threats, Segmentwise Performance, Outlook and Risks & Concerns.”
HEAVY CHEMICALS
The capacity utilization of Indian Caustic Soda Industry declined to around 67% during the year due to demand recession and huge
import at dumping price. The Industry’s demand for imposition of safeguard duty – in addition to prevailing anti-dumping duty – has
been favourably considered by the designated authority resulting in sharp decline in imports towards the end of the year.
Capacity utilization in Sulphuric Acid Industry suffered in the first half due to import of the product at throwaway prices. However, the
situation improved in the second half due to increase in prices of Sulphur and Sulphuric Acid in International Market.
B.
OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS
CEMENT
In order to meet future demand for Cement, Industry has taken up large scale capacity expansion during the last three years and further
substantial capacity addition is planned during next two years.
31
Creating world class road infrastructure for laying highways, road to rural connectivity, mass housing, urban development and projects
for upliftment of rural economy etc. are some of the major thrust areas of Government and to achieve these objectives, Government
has been increasing substantially its budget allocation in the last two years.
Heavy augmentation in capacities by 70-80 million ton in next two to three years coupled with non-availability of good quality of coal
and inadequate wagons for transportation are the main threats.
TYRE
The national thrust on road infrastructure, construction of expressways and national highways present a range of opportunities for the
Tyre Industry. Creation of road infrastructure has given some fillip to surface transportation. Emphasis on making India an Auto Centre
for small cars also augurs well for the Industry. The Tyre industry will continue to play an important role in this dynamic and evolving
situation.
The volatility in raw material prices is the biggest threat.
RAYON & TRANSPARENT PAPER
The curtailed production of VFY due to suspension of operations by few competitors created supply gap, which resulted in an opportunity
to maintain the inventory. However, regular imports and stiff Chinese competition in International Market are the biggest threats to the
VFY Industry.
The TP segment is affected by slowdown in demand from ‘Fireworks’ Industry. Any increase in selling price due to increase in costs
of inputs is threatened by diversion to cheaper alternatives.
The volatility in raw material prices and imports from China, however, remains the biggest threat.
HEAVY CHEMICALS
Ongoing capacity addition and Greenfield projects in Aluminium sector in Eastern India will improve demand for Caustic Soda in the
coming years. Lower production cost of larger capacity Caustic Soda Plants in Eastern India may affect competitiveness of the Unit.
C.
OUTLOOK
CEMENT
Even though, India is the second largest cement producer in the world, the per capita cement consumption is only 156 Kg., as against
the world average of 396 Kg. Therefore, there is enormous opportunity for the growth of Cement Industry. This country has huge
potential for cement consumption growth, considering major emphasis of the Government on infrastructure development and boost to
housing sector through measures like easy finance, provision of tax incentives etc.
TYRE
Fortune of Tyre Industry is linked to the automobile & transportation sectors. Future looks bright due to various economic fillips by the
government, large infrastructure spending and positive market sentiment.
RAYON & TRANSPARENT PAPER
The sales outlook of VFY appears positive owing to signs of revival in consumer off-take. However, focus will continue to be on increasing
share of value added yarn and improving yarn quality.
Realisations of TP are expected to be under pressure due to cheap imports and substitutes. The Government should consider to provide
some incentives to encourage bio-degradability and eco-friendly attributes of this product.
HEAVY CHEMICALS
Improvement in demand for joint products – Chlorine, Hydrochloric Acid and Hydrogen Gas was witnessed during the second half of
the year under review, which is expected to be sustained and is likely to result in better realization for the products.
D.
RISKS AND CONCERNS
CEMENT
Although cement demand is expected to grow with economic growth, large capacity additions may create surplus capacity in the short
term. Any unexpected slow down in the economic activity or deferment of large infrastructure projects will aggravate the situation and
affect margin adversely.
Cement Industry is heavily dependent on coal for its fuel requirement. While cement capacity is increasing continuously whereas the
allotment of coal against linkages is decreasing. As a result, Cement Industry’s fuel cost is increasing due to purchase of coal from
open market, E-auction or import of coal.
32
2009-10
ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS
Similarly, short supply of Railway Wagons is also a major bottleneck, affecting outward movement of cement and inward movement of
raw materials like gypsum, coal etc. Alternate Road Transport, only add to the inward and outward transport costs.
TYRE
The volatility in all major raw material prices and the inverted duty structure between tyres and natural rubber puts further pressure on
the Industry’s revenue and profitability.
RAYON & TRANSPARENT PAPER
The revenue is likely to be impacted due to increased competition and rising input costs in both VFY & TP segments. Exports are
likely to be affected due to subdued demand.
HEAVY CHEMICALS
Steep increase in power cost caused by rise in price of coal is a major concern as power constitutes around 65% of cost of production
in Caustic Soda Industry.
E.
INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM AND THEIR ADEQUACY
The Company has proper and adequate systems of internal control, to safeguard all assets against loss from unauthorized use or
disposition. These systems also ensure that all transactions are authorized, recorded and reported correctly. Regular internal audits
and checks are carried out to provide assurance that adequate systems are in place and that the responsibilities at various levels are
discharged effectively. The Management continuously reviews the internal control systems and procedures to obtain comfort regarding
orderly and efficient conduct of business. The review includes overseeing adherence to management policies, safeguarding the assets
of the Company as well as ensuring the preparation of timely and accurate financial information. The emphasis on internal control
prevails across functions and processes, covering the entire gamut of activities including finance, supply chain, sales and distribution,
marketing and the like. A strong system of internal audit supported by Internal and External Auditors and effective & comprehensive
reviews by the Audit Committee have strengthened the internal control within the organization.
F.
MATERIAL DEVELOPMENT IN HUMAN RESOURCES AND INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS
Measures for safety of employees, training, welfare and development continue to get high priority at all levels, which are reflected in
the improved quality and efficiency. Industrial relations have been cordial during the year under review except Spun Pipes Section,
where the factory continues to be under suspension of work since 2nd May, 2008.
G.
The Company as a whole had 13,544 persons on its rolls as on 31.3.2010.
H.
CAUTION STATEMENT

ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS
AUDITORS’ REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF KESORAM INDUSTRIES LIMITED
1.
We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Kesoram Industries Limited (the “Company”) as at 31st March, 2010, the related
Profit and Loss Account and Cash Flow Statement for the year ended on that date annexed thereto, which we have signed under
reference to this report. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s Management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
2.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those Standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by Management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
3.
As required by the Companies (Auditor’s Report) Order, 2003, as amended by the Companies (Auditor’s Report) (Amendment)
Order, 2004, issued by the Central Government of India in terms of Section 227 (4A) of ‘The Companies Act, 1956’ of India (the
‘Act’) and on the basis of such checks of the books and records of the Company as we considered appropriate and according to
the information and explanations given to us, we further report that :
3.1 (a) The Company is maintaining proper records showing full particulars (other than details regarding revaluations made during
1982-83) including quantitative details and situation of its fixed assets.
(b) The fixed assets of the Company are physically verified by the Management according to phased programmes designed to
cover all the items over a period of three years, which in our opinion, is reasonable having regard to the size of the Company
and the nature of its assets. Pursuant to such programmes [without any coverage for items of Company’s Spun Pipes &
Foundries Unit (which is under suspension of work effective 2nd May, 2008 having year-end book value of Rs.4,09,93,039)],
a portion of the fixed assets has been physically verified by the Management during the year and no material discrepancies
between the book records and the physical inventory have been noticed.
(c)
In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, a substantial part of fixed assets has not been
disposed off by the Company during the year.
3.2 (a) The inventories [excluding stocks with third parties and pertaining to the aforesaid Spun Pipes & Foundries Unit (year-end
book value Rs. 99,23,767)] have been physically verified by the Management during the year. In respect of inventory lying
with third parties, these have substantially been confirmed by them. In our opinion, the frequency of physical verification is
reasonable.
(b) In our opinion, the procedures of physical verification of inventories followed by the Management are reasonable and adequate
in relation to the size of the Company and nature of its business.
(c)
On the basis of our examination of the inventory records, in our opinion, the Company is maintaining proper records of
inventories other than work-in-process. As in earlier years, work-in-process has been determined by the Management on
the basis of physical verification as mentioned in paragraph 3.2 (a) above. The discrepancies noticed on physical verification
of inventory as compared to book records were not material.
3.3
The Company has neither granted nor taken during the year any loans, secured or unsecured, to / from companies, firms
or other parties covered in the register maintained under Section 301 of the Act.
3.4
In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, there is an adequate internal control system
commensurate with the size of the Company and the nature of its business for the purchase of inventory, fixed assets and
for the sale of goods. The Company has not provided any service during the year. Further, on the basis of our examination
of the books and records of the Company and according to the information and explanations given to us, we have neither
come across nor have we been informed of any continuing failure to correct major weaknesses in the aforesaid internal
control system.
43
3.5 (a) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the particulars of contracts or arrangements
referred to in Section 301 of the Act have been entered in the register required to be maintained under that Section.
(b) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the transactions made in pursuance of such
contracts or arrangements and exceeding the value of rupees five lakhs in respect of any party during the year, have
been made at prices which are reasonable having regard to the prevailing market prices at the relevant time other than
transactions of special nature for which competitive quotations are not available.
3.6 In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the Company has complied with the provisions of
Sections 58A and 58AA or any other relevant provisions of the Act and the Companies (Acceptance of Deposits) Rules, 1975
with regard to the deposits accepted from the public. According to the information and explanations given to us, no order has
been passed by the Company Law Board or National Company Law Tribunal or Reserve Bank of India or any Court or any other
Tribunal on the Company in respect of the aforesaid deposits.
3.7 In our opinion, the Company has an internal audit system commensurate with its size and nature of business.
3.8 We have broadly reviewed the books of account maintained by the Company in respect of products at its Cement, Tyre, Rayon
and Chemicals Units where, pursuant to the Rules made by the Central Government of India, the maintenance of cost records has
been prescribed under Section 209(1)(d) of the Act and are of the opinion that prima facie, the prescribed accounts and records
have been made and maintained. We have not, however, made a detailed examination of the records with a view to determine
whether they are accurate or complete.
3.9 (a) According to the information and explanations given to us and the records of the Company examined by us, in our opinion,
the Company is generally regular in depositing the undisputed statutory dues including provident fund, investor education
and protection fund [other than arrears of Rs. 56,307 (pertaining to cases under litigation) outstanding for a period of more

SCHEDULE 17 (Contd.)
15 A . In keeping with the Guidance on implementing Accounting Standard (AS) 15 on Employee Benefits issued by the Accounting
Standards Board of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ASB Guidance), employer-established provident fund
trusts are treated as Defined Benefit Plans since the Company is obligated to meet interest shortfall, if any, with respect to
covered employees. According to the management, in consultation with Actuary, actuarial valuation cannot be applied to
reliably measure provident fund liabilities in absence of guidance from Actuarial Society of India. Accordingly, the Company is
currently not in a position to provide other related disclosures as required by the aforesaid AS 15 read with the ASB Guidance,
however, having regard to the position of the Fund (for covered employees) and confirmation from the Trustees’ of such Fund
there is no shortfall as at the year end.
B. In keeping with the Company’s gratuity scheme (a defined benefit plan), eligible employees are entitled to gratuity benefit (at
one half month’s eligible salary for each completed year of service) on retirement / death / incapacitation / termination. Also
refer Note 1 (i) for accounting policy relating to gratuity. Following are the further particulars with respect to gratuity :2009-2010
