The financial statements are prepared to comply with all material
 aspects with the accounting principles generally accepted in India and
 in consonance with the Accounting Standards issued by The Institute of
 Chartered Accountants of India to the extent applicable and the

 (i) Basis of Accounting
 
 The Financial Statements are prepared under the historical cost
 convention on an accrual basis.
 
 (ii) Use of Estimates
 
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the
 generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
 estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
 liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of
 financial statement and the result of operation during the reporting
 period end. Although these estimates are based upon management''s best
 knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ
 from these estimates.
 
 (iii) Revenue Recognition
 
 Revenue is recognised when consideration can be reasonably measured and
 there exists reasonable certainty of its recovery.
 
 (a) Sales
 
 Sales is inclusive of VAT and Central Sales Tax, wherever applicable
 and after making adjustments towards price variations, discounts, etc.
 
 As the company''s business model is such that the excise duty payable by
 the company is negligible, it is not shown separately.
 
 Revenue from domestic sales is accounted on dispatch of products to
 customers.
 
 Revenue from export sales is recognised on shipment / air lift of
 products.
 
 (b) Interest
