accounts.
(a) Land, Building and Plant & Machinery, other Assets & Liabilities

values in respect of the Company and the erstwhile subsidiary and the
notional appreciation representing the difference between the revalued
values and their original cost amounting to Rs. 222.47 Million (net)
was credited to General Reserve which otherwise would have been taken
to Fixed Asset Revaluation Reserve during FY. 2008-09.
(b) Arrears of Deferred Tax Asset of Rs. 121.15 Million relating to
pre-merger period has been deducted from the above General Reserve
instead of recognizing in the Profit and Loss Account during FY 2009

Nos. 10 and 22 and the Generally Accepted Accounting principles, and
the General Reserve is not an appropriation out of profits, available
for dividend.

relating to an earlier year.
