1.  Tariff revision awards for 2000-01 and 2001-02 were finalised by the West
Bengal Electricity Regulatory Commission on 7 November, 2001. The Company has
preferred an appeal in the Hon'ble Calcutta High Court against such tariff
revision awards. Based on the judgement of the Hon'ble High Court, the above
results may undergo changes and, therefore, provision for deferred taxation, if
any, could not be made.
             
2   Results for the previous periods appearing in Columns (2) and (4) have not
been recast on the basis of 2000-01 tariff revision award and hence figures in
the said Columns are not strictly comparable.
                     
3   The Company is engaged in generation and distribution of electricity and
does not operate in any other reportable segment.

4   Auditors' Report on the latest audited accounts for the year 2000-01
included reference to some unprovided claims of Damodar Valley Corporation/West
Bengal State Electricity Board and shortfall in corpus of gratuity fund. The
Company has followed the same basis of accounting in respect of these matters
while preparing the above results.
