i) The provisions of ''The Haryana Murrah Buffalo and Other Milch Animal Breed (Preservation and Development of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Development Sector) Act, 2001, requires every milk processing company to pay milk cess not exceeding fifteen paisa per liter on registered capacity of a milk plant under Milk and Milk Product Order, 1992. Accordingly Haryana State Government, vide its notification no. 6388-AH-4-2001/16142 dated 9th September, 2001, imposed a milk-cess of ten paisa per liter on the registered capacity of plants.

In 2001, the Company filed a writ petition before the Hon''ble High Court of Punjab and Haryana challenging the imposition of such cess as against the Constitution of India. The Hon''ble High Court of Punjab and Haryana issued a stay order dated 9th July, 2004 on such imposition and directed the Company to continue to pay 1/3rd of the total milk-cess amount to the State Government on registered capacity till the final outcome of the case and Company provided the same in the books of account. In 2004, a similar cess was levied in the state of Punjab by the Government of Punjab under the Punjab Dairy Development Board Ordinance, 2000, and was upheld unconstitutional by the Hon''ble Supreme Court. Based upon this order of the Hon''ble Supreme Court, the stay order imposed by Hon''ble High Court of Punjab and Haryana and as per the legal advice obtained by the Company at that point of time, the Company discontinued the provision of milk-cess in the books of account.

On 28th May, 2010 the Hon''ble High Court of Punjab and Haryana dismissed the Company''s writ petition and upheld the levy of cess by State Government on milk plants. On 18th August, 2010 the Company filed a review application with the Hon''ble High Court. But such application was dismissed by Hon''ble High Court of Punjab and Haryana. On 18th October, 2010 the Company filed a special leave petition before the Hon''ble Supreme Court challenging the impugned judgment. The matter was listed before the Hon''ble Supreme Court on 5th August, 2011. The Hon''ble Supreme Court has issued a notice to the Govt. of Haryana on Special Leave Petition filed by the Company as well as on the application for interim stay. On 20th April, 2012, the Government of Haryana filed its reply and Hon''ble Supreme Court has ordered the case to be put before the Hon''ble Bench.

The Company had also received a notice dated 1st April, 2011 from Semen Bank Officer, Haryana Livestock Development Board, Karnal demanding the payment of Rs.21,25.75 lacs as arrears of Cess and Rs.1,28.72 lacs towards interest on the full unpaid amount for the period 1st January, 2011 to 31st March, 2011.

The Hon''ble Supreme Court in its order dated 7th September, 2012 granted an interim stay on impugned judgment passed by The Hon''ble High Court, subject to petitioners depositing 50% of the cess levied and demanded by the State Government for expedited the hearing in this case. Based on the order of The Hon''ble Supreme Court, the Company has deposited 50% of milk cess liability amounting to Rs.5,91 lacs till 7th September, 2012 and after that, there is no hearing held in the Supreme Court till date. ii) In the opinion of the management, the unjust levy of milk cess has eroded the net worth of the Company, and in view of the erosion of the net worth, the Company has become a sick industrial company in terms of section 3(1)(o) of Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act, 1985 in the hearing held on 8th February, 2012. The Company has worked out a business and debt restructuring plan and submitted the draft of the same with the BIFR, which is based on the following major assumptions:

- During last year, the Government of India lifted ban on export of casein, a product manufactured by the Company, and since then the Company is continuously exporting casein to various countries across the world and the casein sales contribute good margins.

- In the opinion of the management, as the litigation currently stands sub-judice with the Hon''ble Supreme Court of India, the milk cess imposed by the Government of Haryana on the plant shall be waived off along with interest there on.

- The Company has currently made draft submissions to the BIFR for waiver of milk cess and interest thereon so that the viability of the future operations of the Company could be maintained and the Company could turn around its operations profitable.

In view of the above developments, coupled with the generation of cash profits from its operations, the management of the Company believes that even though there is significant uncertainty in connection with the outstanding litigation and the Company''s net worth being fully eroded, the Company is hopeful of turning around and expects that the net worth of the Company shall become positive in near future.

c) Other matters incidental to milk cess related litigation:

The management of the Company has obtained an opinion from an independent firm of attorneys in connection with the outstanding litigation relating to the milk cess matter as referred to in Note XXIX(b) above. In the opinion of the management, and upon consideration of the opinion from an independent firm of attorneys, the Company stands a good case to argue of obtaining a waiver on the interest on milk cess liability from the Hon''ble Supreme Court. The Company also has the discretion to make a submission with the BIFR for waiving the interest on milk cess. Accordingly, the Company has written back the provision for interest on milk cess aggregating Rs.11,44.36 lacs accrued in prior years and disclosed the same as an exceptional item in the statement of profit and loss.

The Company has filed application for rectification of the order u/s 154 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 with Assistant Commissioner of Income Tax as in its opinion, the amount considered as inadmissible by the Income Tax Department should be adjusted against the carry forward losses for the respective years, and hence, the Company is not liable to make payment towards such demands.

The provisions of The Haryana Murrah Buffalo and Other Milch Animal Breed (Preservation and Development of Animal Husbandry and Dairy Development Sector) Act, 2001 ('Act')', requires every milk processing company to pay milk cess not exceeding fifteen paisa per litre on registered capacity of a milk plant under Milk and Milk Product order, 1992.Accordingly Haryana State Government, vide its notification no. 6388-AH-4-2001/16142 dated 9th September, 2001, imposed a milk-cess often paisa per litre on the registered capacity of plants.

The Company follows Accounting Standard-22, Accounting for Taxes on Income, issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. The Company has significant time differences between accounting and tax records on account of losses and unabsorbed depreciation, which suggest accounting for deferred tax asset.

There is no case for accounting of any deferred tax liability either.

Due to losses in the current year, indicators of impairment as per Accounting Standard - 28, Impairment of Assets, are present as at March 31, 2010. Accordingly, the Company has reviewed the fixed assets for impairment and determined that the value in use of its fixed assets exceeds its carrying value as at March 31,2010.
