2. OPERATIONS
During the year under review, Gross Sales of the Company were Rs.4022.96 Lacs as compared
to Rs.4234.19 Lacs in the previous year. For the year, your company has made a Gross loss
of Rs. 52.11 Lacs as against Gross Loss of Rs. 215.71 Lacs in the previous year. The Export
Sales were Rs. 797.46 Lacs as compared to Rs. 496.25Lacs in the previous year.
During the year under review the company’s plant situated at Guwahati was under Lock Out
from 7th December 2010 to 8th March 2012, detailed note is given under the heading ‘ Industrial
Relations’ in this report. Due to the lockout in Guwahati plant, the Company was completely
dependent on the import of carbon blocks (the “mother-material”) for almost the whole of the
year under review, however due to various measures taken internally for improvements in
operations, the loss before tax was reduced from 2.15 crores (the PBT of the previous year) to
52.11 lacs this year.
Since the Guwahati factory is now operational, it is expected that the results of the company
will be considerably better in the coming years.
3 FUTURE OUTLOOK
There was a slow down in the economic growth in the FY 2011-2012 and India achieved a
GDP growth of 8.6% for the year ended 31st March 2012. Growth expected to remain moderate
in the FY 2012-2013 unless substantial policy measures are undertaken. Inflation and Capital
Runaway has been the two main factors hurting the Indian Economy. GDP growth is unlikely
to improve during the year 2012-2013 and is expected to grow @ 7%.
Your company however has made plans for growth in the future by leveraging its strong
market position in its traditional products and by penetrating into markets where formerly it’s
presence was not large. This is expected to help its plans for growth in Sales and also in the
bottom line.
4. DIVIDEND
Your Directors do not recommend payment of any dividend in view of the loss made during the
year under review.
A. Conservation of Energy
(a) Energy Conservation Measures :
As energy is a significant cost to the company especially at its Guwahati plant, some
initiatives to improve the same have been planned, but regrettably due to the on
going Industrial activities, the Company has not been able to implement the same.
B. Technology Absorption
Research and Development (R&D)
1. Specific areas in which R& D carried out by the company
No major R&D activity could be carried out
1. We have audited the attached Balance Sheet of Assam Carbon Products Limited (‘the
Company’) as at 31 March 2012 and also the related Statement of Profit and Loss and the
Cash Flow Statement of the Company for the year ended on that date, annexed thereto. 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 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 (‘the Order’), issued by the
Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (4A) of Section 227 of the Companies Act,
1956, (‘the Act’), we enclose in the Annexure a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs
4 and 5 of the said Order.
4. We draw your attention to the following:
a. Included in Inventories is ‘work-in-progress’ amounting to Rs. 16,333 thousands (previous
year Rs 20,015 thousands). The valuation of work-in-progress inventories does not
include a systematic allocation of fixed and variable production overheads as required
by paragraph 8 of Accounting Standard 2: Valuation of Inventories. Also, we note that
items of finished goods amounting to Rs. 11,659 thousands (previous year Rs 9,129
thousand) are valued at standard cost which is not in line with the requirements of
paragraph 18 of Accounting Standard 2: Valuation of Inventories.
We are unable to satisfy ourselves regarding adjustments, if any, which will be required
to the values of closing work-in-progress and finished goods inventories as at 31 March
2012 and its consequent impact on increase/decrease in inventories of finished goods
and work in progress and loss for the year ended 31 March 2012.
b. As more fully explained in Note 25(ii), the Company has not established a provision for
employee wages and benefits for the lock out period at the Company’s Guwahati Factory
during the years 2007-2008 and for the subsequent lock out period from 7 December
2010 to 8 March 2012 on the principle of ‘No Work No Pay’. The labour matter is sub-
judice and hence the impact, if any, in terms of provision of employee wages and employee
benefits and its resultant impact on loss for the year ended 31 March 2012, reserves and
surplus and current liabilities cannot currently be determined. Our report in the previous
year was also modified with respect to the above matter.
c. The Central Government has approved the payment of remuneration to the non-executive
Chairman subject to 1 % of the net profit of the Company for the year ended 31 March
2012 as computed under section 198 of the Companies Act, 1956. The Company, during
the period 1April 2011 to 31 March 2012, has paid remuneration amounting to Rs. 1,500
thousands to the non-executive Director in excess of the Central Government approvals.

The above Cash Flow Statement has been prepared under the “Indirect Method” as set out in the
Accounting Standard 3 on Cash Flow Statements as prescribed by the Companies (Accounting
Standard) Rules, 2006.
During the year ended 31 March 2012, the revised Schedule VI notified under the
Companies Act has become applicable to the Company for the preparation and
presentation of its financial statements. While the adoption of revised Schedule VI does
not impact the recognition and measurement principles followed for the presentation of
financial statements, it has significant impact on presentation and disclosure
requirements. The Company has also re-classed the previous year figures in accordance
with the requirements applicable in the current year more described under note 41. All
assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non current as per Company’s
normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in revised Schedule VI of the Companies
Act, 1956. The Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose
of current and non current classification of assets and liabilities.
v. Impairment
The carrying amounts of fixed assets and capital work in progress are reviewed at each
balance sheet date in accordance with Accounting Standard 28 on ‘Impairment of Assets’,
prescribed by the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, to determine whether
there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable
amounts of assets are estimated at each reporting date. An impairment loss is recognised
whenever the carrying amount of an asset or the cash generating unit of which it is a part,
exceeds the corresponding recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in
the statement of profit and loss. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a
change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss
is reversed only to the extent that the assets carrying amount does not exceed the
carrying amount that would have been determined net of depreciation or amortisation, if
no impairment loss had been recognised.
vi. Investments
Long term investments are stated at cost less amount written off, where there is a
diminution in value, other than temporary.
vii. Inventories
Raw materials, stores and spare parts are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable
value. Cost includes purchase price, duties and taxes, freight and other expenditure
incurred in bringing such inventories to their present location and condition. In determining
cost, weighted average method is used. The carrying costs of raw materials, stores and
spare parts are appropriately written down when there is a decline in replacement cost
of such materials and the finished products, in which they will be incorporated, are
expected to be sold below cost.
Work in progress and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable
value. Cost comprises of direct material, labour expenses and an appropriate portion of
production overheads incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and
condition. Fixed production overheads are allocated on the basis of normal capacity of
the production facilities. In determining cost, weighted average method is used.
Traded finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Excise duty liability is included in the value of closing inventory of finished goods
When the grant or subsidy relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income over
the periods necessary to match them on a systematic basis to the costs, which it is
intended to compensate. Where the grant or subsidy relates to depreciable assets,
grants are treated as deferred income which is recognised in the statement of Profit and
Loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset. Such allocation
to income is usually made over the periods and in the proportions in which depreciation
on related assets is charged.
b) The administration of the gratuity scheme which is in the nature of defined benefit
plan, has been entrusted to Life Insurance Corporation of India (‘LIC’). Annual
charge is recognised on the basis of actuarial valuation of the related obligation
and plan assets conducted by an independent actuary appointed by the Company
xii. Taxation
Income tax expense comprises current tax, (i.e. amount of taxes for the year determined
in accordance with the Income-Tax Act, 1961) and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting
the tax effects of timing differences between accounting income and taxable income for
the year). The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities
or assets are recognised using the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the Balance Sheet date.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that
such assets can be realised in future. However, in case of unabsorbed depreciation or
carried forward loss under tax laws, deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is a
virtual certainty of realisation of such assets. Deferred tax assets are reviewed as at
each Balance Sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is
reasonably / virtually certain (as the case may be) to be realised.
Contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and the existence
of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more
uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company and / or is a present
obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because either it is not
probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to
settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be reliably estimated.
