Notes:

1.  The above results have been taken on record by the Board of Directors in its
    meeting held on 27.07.99

2.  Pending declaration of levy price of Sugar for the season 1998-99, an
    estimated profit of Rs.2 million for the quarter (Rs.29 million up to June
    1999) arising on account of difference in levy price between 1997-98 and
    1998-99 has not been considered.

3.  The Company is in the process of acheiving Y2k compliance and is in a
    position to meet the cost.

4.  Profit/(loss) for quarter ended June l999 is not comparable with the
    figures for the quarter ended June l998 which included Rs.255 million as
    profit on sale of long term investment and Rs.10 million as provision
    for diminution in the value of long term investment/doubtful debts/advances.
