Emphasis of Matter by Auditors
The auditors, B. Nath & Co., issued an unmodified opinion but drew attention to the fact that "the Company has not recognized a provision for a portion of its gratuity liability as determined by an independent actuarial valuation carried out in accordance with Ind AS 19 - Employee Benefits." They noted that "the actuarially determined present value of the defined benefit obligation, to the extent not provided for, represents a departure from the measurement and recognition requirements prescribed under Ind AS 19."
Additional Notes from Management
1. Production of green leaf from company's tea estates involves integrated process; cost of material consumed represents purchase of Green Leaf.
2. The company has no separate reportable segments as it is primarily engaged in tea business.
3. Taxation provision computed at year-end basis due to seasonal nature of business.
4. Labour Code implications are under evaluation as rules are yet to be notified; adjustments will be made in subsequent periods.
5. Q4 figures are derived from difference between audited full-year and unaudited YTD figures up to Q3.
6. Previous year figures have been rearranged/regrouped for comparability.
