REVIEW REPORT TO THE MEMBERS ON STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH

BEST PRACTICES OF CODE OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
We have reviewed the Statement of Compliance with the best practices contained in the Code of Corporate
Governance prepared by the Board of Directors of Nishat Mills Limited to comply with the Listing
Regulations of the respective stock exchanges, where the Company is listed.
The responsibility for compliance with the Code of Corporate Governance is that of the Board of Directors
of the Company. Our responsibility is to review, to the extent where such compliance can be objectively
verified, whether the Statement of Compliance reflects the status of the Company’s compliance with the
provisions of the Code of Corporate Governance and report if it does not. A review is limited primarily to
inquiries of the Company personnel and review of various documents prepared by the Company to
comply with the Code.
As part of our audit of financial statements, we are required to obtain an understanding of the accounting
and internal control systems sufficient to plan the audit and develop an effective audit approach. We
have not carried out any special review of the internal control system to enable us to express an opinion
as to whether the Board’s statement on internal control covers all controls and the effectiveness of such
internal controls.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the Statement
of Compliance does not appropriately reflect the Company’s compliance, in all material respects, with
the best practices contained in the Code of Corporate Governance.

AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS
We have audited the annexed balance sheet of NISHAT MILLS LIMITED as at 30 June 2006 and the
related profit and loss account, cash flow statement and statement of changes in equity, together with
the notes forming part thereof, for the year then ended and we state that we have obtained all the
information and explanations which, to the best of our knowledge and belief, were necessary for the
purposes of our audit.
It is the responsibility of the company’s management to establish and maintain a system of internal
control, and prepare and present the above said statements in conformity with the approved accounting
standards and the requirements of the Companies Ordinance, 1984. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the auditing standards as applicable in Pakistan. These
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
above said statements are free of any material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the above said statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting policies and significant estimates made by management, as well as,
evaluating the overall presentation of the above said statements. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion and, after due verification, we report that as stated in Note 7.2.2 to the
financial statements, the company has not made provision for Workers’ Participation Fund to the extent
of Rupees 2.441 million against profit on sale of equity investments amounting to Rupees 48.824 million.
Had the aforesaid provision been made in the financial statements, the profit for the year ended 30 June
2006 and shareholders’ equity as of that date would have been lower by Rupees 2.441 million.
Except for the effects of failure to provide for workers’ participation fund against profit on sale of equity
investments described in the preceding paragraph, we report that:
a) in our opinion, proper books of account have been kept by the company as required by the
Companies Ordinance, 1984;
b) in our opinion:
i) the balance sheet and profit and loss account, together with the notes thereon, have been drawn
up in conformity with the Companies Ordinance, 1984, and are in agreement with the books of
account and are further in accordance with accounting policies consistently applied except for the
changes stated in Note 2.2 and 2.9 to the financial statements with which we concur;
ii) the expenditure incurred during the year was for the purpose of the company’s business; and
iii) the business conducted, investments made and the expenditure incurred during the year
were in accordance with the objects of the company;

c) in our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the
balance sheet, profit and loss account, cash flow statement and statement of changes in equity,
together with the notes forming part thereof, conform with approved accounting standards as
applicable in Pakistan, and, give the information required by the Companies Ordinance, 1984, in
the manner so required and respectively give a true and fair view of the state of the company’s
affairs as at 30 June 2006 and of the profit, its cash flows and changes in equity for the year then
ended; and
d) in our opinion, Zakat deductible at source under the Zakat and Ushr Ordinance, 1980 (XVIII of
1980), was deducted by the company and deposited in the Central Zakat Fund established under
section 7 of that Ordinance

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. THE COMPANY AND ITS OPERATIONS
Nishat Mills Limited is a public company incorporated in Pakistan under the Companies Act, 1913
(Now Companies Ordinance, 1984) and listed on Stock Exchanges in Pakistan. Its registered
office is situated at 53-A Lawrence Road, Lahore. The company is engaged in the business of
textile manufacturing and of spinning, combing, weaving, bleaching, dyeing, printing, stitching,
buying, selling and otherwise dealing in yarn, linen, cloth and other goods and fabrics made from
raw cotton, synthetic fibre and cloth, and to generate, accumulate, distribute and supply electricity.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1 Accounting convention
These financial statements have been prepared in Pak Rupees under the historical cost convention
as modified by the revaluation of equity investments at fair value/under equity method and fair
valuation of derivative financial instruments as stated in note 2.9 and 2.18 respectively.
2.2 Basis of preparation of financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with approved accounting
standards as applicable in Pakistan and the requirements of the Companies Ordinance,
1984. Approved accounting standards comprise of such International Accounting Standards
as notified under the provisions of the Companies Ordinance, 1984. Wherever, the
requirements of the Companies Ordinance, 1984 or directives issued by the Securities and
Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) differ with the requirements of these standards,
the requirements of Companies Ordinance, 1984 or the requirements of the said directives
take precedence.
During the current year, the Company has changed its accounting policy pertaining to transfers
among reserves made subsequent to balance sheet date consequent upon the amendment
made by SECP in the Fourth Schedule to the Companies Ordinance, 1984. As per new
policy, transfers among reserves made subsequent to the balance sheet date are considered
as non-adjusting events and are not recognized in the financial statements. Previously, such
transfers among reserves were being treated as adjusting events in the financial statements
of the Company. The change in accounting policy has been applied retrospectively and the
comparative information has been restated in accordance with the treatment specified in
International Accounting Standard (IAS) 8 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting
Estimates and Errors”.
Had there been no change in accounting policy, the un-appropriated profit would have been
lower by Rupees 1 414.260 million (30 June 2005: Rupees 1 142 million) and general reserve
and reserve for issue of bonus shares would have been higher by Rupees 1 269.000 million
(30 June 2005: Rupees 1 142.000 million) and Rupees 145.260 million (30 June 2005: Rupees
Nil) respectively. However, there is no impact of this change on the results of current year.
2.3 Standards, interpretations and amendments to published approved accounting

standards that are not yet effective
An IFRS (IAS-1 Presentation of Financial Statements – Capital disclosure) effective from 01

January 2007 has been published/revised and the amendments are applicable to the financial
statements of the company covering accounting years beginning on or after 01 January
2006 or later periods. Adoption of the above amendments may only impact to the extent of
disclosures presented in the financial statements.

2.4 Staff retirement benefits
The company operates an approved funded provident fund scheme covering all permanent
employees. Equal monthly contributions are made both by the company and employees at
the rate of 9.5 percent of the basic salary to the fund.
2.5 Taxation
Current
The company falls in the ambit of presumptive tax regime under section 169 of the Income
Tax Ordinance, 2001. Provision for income tax is made in the accounts accordingly. However,
provision for tax on other income is based on taxable income at the current rates after
considering the rebates and tax credits available, if any.
Deferred
Deferred tax is accounted for by using the liability method on all timing differences between
the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their tax base.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. The company
recognizes deferred tax assets on all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is
probable that future taxable profits will be available against which these deductible temporary
differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to
apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled.
2.6 Foreign currency
All monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into Pak Rupees at the
rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date or at the contracted rates while
foreign currency transactions are initially recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the
transaction date or at the contracted rates. Exchange risk fee is charged to profit and loss
account. The company charges all the exchange differences to profit and loss account.
2.7 Operating fixed assets, depreciation and capital work-in-progress
Operating fixed assets except freehold land are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation
and impairment losses. Capital work in progress and freehold land are stated at cost less
impairment loss, if any. Cost of operating fixed assets consists of historical cost, applicable
exchange differences (up to 30 September 2004) and directly attributable cost of bringing
the assets to working condition. Borrowing cost pertaining to the construction / erection
period is also capitalized as part of historical cost.
Depreciation is charged to income applying the reducing balance method at the rates given
in note 12.1 to write off the depreciable amount of operating fixed assets over their expected
useful life. Maintenance and normal repairs are charged to income as and when incurred.
Major renewals and improvements are capitalized. Gain or loss on disposal of operating
fixed assets is recognized in the profit and loss account.
In pursuance of revised International Accounting Standard (IAS) 16 “Property, Plant and

Equipment”, the company has revised the following accounting estimates:

i) Residual values of operating fixed assets have been estimated as at 30 June 2006 and their
depreciable amounts have been adjusted accordingly. Had the residual values of operating
fixed assets not been considered for charging depreciation, profit after taxation for the year
ended 30 June 2006 and written down value of operating fixed assets as at 30 June 2006
would have been lower by Rupees 19.466 million. Accordingly, earnings per share for the
year ended 30 June 2006 would have also been lower by Rupees 0.134 per share.
ii) The company now charges depreciation on additions from the date when the asset is available
for use and on deletions upto the date when the asset is deleted. Previously, no depreciation
was charged on assets deleted during the year while full year’s depreciation was charged
on additions except major additions or extensions to production facilities, which were
depreciated on pro-rata basis for the period of use during the year. Had there been no
change in the accounting estimate, the profit after taxation for the year ended 30 June 2006
and written down value of operating fixed assets as at 30 June 2006 would have been lower
by Rupees 9.412 million. Accordingly, earnings per share would have also been lower by
Rupees 0.065 per share.
The company has accounted for the above stated changes in accounting estimates
prospectively in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 8 “Accounting
Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors”. Quantification and disclosure of the
financial impact of these changes for the future years is impracticable.
2.8 Assets subject to finance lease
These are stated at lower of present value of minimum lease payments under the lease
agreements and the fair value of assets acquired on lease. Aggregate amount of obligation
relating to assets subject to finance lease is accounted for at net present value of liabilities.
Assets so acquired are depreciated over their expected useful life at the rates mentioned in
Note 12.2. In pursuance of revised International Accounting Standard (IAS) 16 “Property,
Plant and Equipment” the company has revised the following accounting estimates:
i) Residual values of assets subject to finance lease have been estimated as at 30 June 2006
and their depreciable amounts have been adjusted accordingly. Had the residual values of
assets subject to finance lease not been considered for charging depreciation, profit after
taxation for the year ended 30 June 2006 and carrying value of assets subject to finance
lease would have been lower by Rupees 0.315 million. Accordingly, earnings per share
would have also been lower by Rupees 0.002 per share.
ii) The company now charges depreciation on additions from the date when the asset is available
for use and on deletions up to the date when the asset is deleted. Previously, no depreciation
was charged on assets deleted during the year while full year’s depreciation was charged
on additions. This change in accounting estimate has no impact on the amounts reported for
the current year as depreciation was charged on pro-rata basis for the period of actual use.
The company has accounted for the above stated changes in accounting estimates
prospectively in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 8 “Accounting
Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors”. Quantification and disclosure of the
financial impact of these changes for the future years is impracticable.

2.9 Investments
2.9.1 Investments in associated companies
Investments in associated companies are stated at the company’s share of underlying net
assets using the equity method.
In the previous years, long term investments in associated companies were carried as
“available-for-sale” which were measured at fair value and changes in carrying values were
recognized in equity until investment was sold or determined to be impaired at which time
the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity was included in profit and loss
account for the year. However, in accordance with the change in International Accounting
Standard (IAS) 28 “Investments in Associates”, the company has changed its policy to
measure such investments using the equity method.
The change in accounting policy has been applied retrospectively in accordance with the
treatment specified in IAS-8 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and
Errors.” Had this policy not been changed, the profit for the year would have been lower by
Rupees 440.542 million, shareholders’ equity would have been lower by Rupees 2,270.601
million and investments in associated companies would have been lower by Rupees 2,270.601
million. Accordingly, earnings per share would have also been lower by Rupees 3.033 per
share. Share of profit in associated companies accounted for by the company in these financial
statements has been taken upto 31 March 2006 based on the latest available financial
statements of associated companies.
2.9.2 Other investments
Due to revision of International Accounting Standard (IAS) 39 “Financial Instruments:

Recognition and Measurement”, investments other than mentioned above are initially
recognized at trade date on fair value. Previously, these were recognized initially at cost.
The change in accounting policy has no recognition/measurement impact on current and
prior years. Fair value of listed securities is determined on the basis of closing quotations of
stock exchanges on last working day of the accounting year, while for unquoted securities,
fair value is determined considering break-up value of the securities. Classification of an
investment is made on the basis of intended purpose for holding such investments.
Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of
purchase and re-evaluates such designation on regular basis and presents in the balance
sheet on the following basis:
Held - to - Maturity
These are stated at amortized cost less impairment loss, if any, recognized to reflect
irrecoverable amounts. Impairment losses are charged to profit and loss account.
Held - for - Trading
These are recognized at fair value and changes in carrying values are included in profit and
loss account.

Available – for – Sale
These are stated at fair value and changes in carrying values are recognized in equity until
investment is sold or determined to be impaired at which time the cumulative gain or loss
previously recognized in equity is included in profit and account for the year.
2.10 Inventories
Inventories, except for stock in transit and waste stock/rags are stated at lower of cost and
net realizable value. Cost is determined as follows:
Stores, spare parts and loose tools
Useable stores, spare parts and loose tools are valued principally at moving average cost,
while items considered obsolete are carried at Nil value. Items in transit are valued at cost
comprising invoice value plus other charges paid thereon.
Stock-in-trade
Cost of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods is determined as follows:
i ) For raw materials - Annual average basis.

ii) For work-in-process - Average manufacturing cost including a portion
and finished goods of production overheads.
Materials in transit are valued at cost comprising invoice value plus other charges paid thereon,
waste stock/rags are valued at net realizable value.
Net realizable value signifies the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business
less costs necessarily to be incurred in order to make a sale.
2.11 Deferred costs
Deferred costs already recognized are being amortized over a period of five years from the
year of occurrence. From the previous period, the company has not deferred any cost to
comply with Circular No. 1 of 2005 dated 19 January 2005 issued by SECP.
2.12 Borrowing cost
Interest, mark-up and other charges on long term liabilities are capitalized up to the date of
commissioning of respective fixed assets acquired out of the proceeds of such long term
liabilities. All other interest, mark-up and other charges are recognized in profit and loss
account.
2.13 Receivables
Receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful
receivable balances based on review of outstanding amounts at year-end. Bad debts are
written off when identified.

2.14 Revenue recognition
Revenue from sales is recognized on delivery of goods to customers. Dividend from associated
undertakings is recognized as reduction in cost of investments as prescribed by International
Accounting Standard (IAS) 28 and on other investments when right to receive the dividend
is established. Gain/loss on investments in associated companies is accounted for to
recognize the post acquisition changes in the share of net assets of the investee. Profit on
deposits with banks is recognized on time proportion basis taking into account the amounts
outstanding and rates applicable thereon.
2.15 Financial Instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are recognized at cost which is the fair value of the consideration
given or received at the time when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions
of the instrument by following trade date accounting. A financial asset or part thereof is de-
recognized when the Company loses control of the contractual right that comprises the
financial asset or part thereof. Such control is deemed to be lost if the Company realizes the
rights to the benefits specified in the contracts, the rights expire or the Company surrenders
those rights. A financial liability or part thereof is removed from the balance sheet when it is
extinguished i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or
expired. Any gain or loss on subsequent measurement and de-recognition is accounted for
in profit and loss account.
2.16 Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the company has a legal or constructive obligation as a
result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits
will be required to settle the obligations and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made.
2.17 Impairment
The carrying amounts of the company’s assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to
determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the
assets recoverable amount is estimated and impairment losses are recognized.
2.18 Derivative financial instruments
Derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a
derivative contract is entered into and subsequently re-measured at fair value. All derivative
financial instruments are carried as assets when fair value is positive and liabilities when fair
value is negative. Any change in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments is taken
to the profit and loss account.
2.19 Off setting
Financial assets and financial liabilities are set off and the net amount is reported in the
financial statements when there is a legally enforceable right to set off and the company
intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and to settle the liabilities
simultaneously.

2.20 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash and bank balances.
2.21 Related party transactions and transfer pricing
Transactions and contracts with the related parties are carried out at an arm’s length price
determined in accordance with comparable uncontrolled price method.
2.22 Critical accounting estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the approved accounting standards
requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the management to
exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. Estimates
and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience, including
expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The areas where various assumptions and estimates are significant to the Company’s financial
statements or where judgments were exercised in application of accounting policies are as
follow:
- Property, plant and equipment (Note 12);

- Provision for doubtful loans and advances (Note 20);
- Taxation (Note 31).
