4.1 Captive Plantation:Captive Plantations were raised in an area of 3625.173 ha in the land allotted by Govt. of Kerala onlease. Out of this 327.291 ha was included in National Parks & Sanctuaries, 190.423 ha is comingunder the core area of Periyar Tiger Reserve and 365.48 ha plantations are under encroachmentthreat of encroachment and litigation.An area of 72.3125 ha was further reduced due to distributionto landless people, surrendering of unsuitable area and handing over to KSEB The effective areaof plantations with HNL at present is 2669.6665 ha which are being maintained properly.

Due to many reasons the availability of pulpwood under PaG Scheme was reduced. Mainly pulpwoodlike Eucalyptus, Acacia, Mangium etc. have found an alternative market as they are being purchasedby plywood industries paying a very high price. The total quantity of mateial, mainly Bamboo,procured under Purchase at Gate Scheme during 2012-13 was 2446 MT.

4.4 Tissue Culture Bamboo

In view of the dwindling availability of Bamboo in the state resulted from gregarious flowering, yourcompany has introduced a scheme to increase the Bamboo resource in the State. This schemeenvisages promotion of cultivation of high yielding thorn-less Bamboo propagated through TissueCulture method. Instead of establishing a Tissue Culture lab in your company, which requires hugeinvestment, it was decided to make use of the facilities of Tissue Culture lab at NPM, a Unit of HPC.20,000 Nos of Semi hardened Tissue Culture plantlets from NPM lab were brought to your Companyand the multiplication and hardening were carried out at HNL utilizing the mist chambers. About50,000 plantlets were sold/distributed among farmers through organizations. So far, plantations usingTissue Culture Bamboo plantlets are being raised in HNL Compound every year in the availablearea. The balance plantlets are being multiplied again for next year planting programme and distribution.

5. Expansion cum Diversification Project (EDP)Earlier proposal for Expansion-Cum-Diversification Project (EDP) could not be implemented due tosteep increase in project cost and was kept in abeyance. Subsequently, it was planned to move aheadwith EDP in a phased manner. In the first phase, your company had decided to go for a 300 TPDDeinking plant for manufacturing of writing and printing grade paper. M/s Tata Consulting EngineersLtd, Mumbai, who is the consultant for the project, has done the evaluation and submitted thecomparative statement. Further process is stalled since Voith has not complied with ourperformance guarantee clause.

With regard to the power plant on BOOT basis, we had awarded work order to M/s aXYKno capitalServices, Nagpur for providing advisory services to select a Developer. The consultant hascommenced their work and process of preparing Request for Qualification (RfQ) for selecting aDeveloper for setting up 80MW power plant is in progress. Simultaneously, drafting of land leave &license Agreement is also progressing. The valuation of infrastructure earmarked for 80MW powerplant on BOOT basis was carried out by an approved Valuer and final report had been submitted.The tendering for selecting an approved Environment consultant for obtaining environmentclearance for the proposed power plant is going on. The study by KSEB to assess the capability ofexisting power line for power evacuation has to be carried out.

Since the new paper machine project was kept in abeyance, as a short term measure with lowinvestment, two new proposals were mooted to grab the emerging market and for improved margin.Accordingly, it was decided to go for refurbishment of the existing paper machine to provide swingfacility and for technology up-gradation & capacity enhancement of existing deinking plant toproduce writing & printing grade pulp besides newsprint grade pulp. Necessary clearances arebeing obtained for this proposal.

Through refurbishment of existing paper machine, it is envisaged production of writing & printinggrade paper besides low grammage (upto 42GSM) newsprint of better quality. The swing facility willprovide flexibility to HNL to switch over to a product depending on the market demand and price.

Tendering for appointment of a consultant for the refurbishment of the paper machine is going on.

26. Business OutlookIndian newsprint market is growing at a CAGR of 12% as compared to negligible growth rates indeveloped countries. Strong growth rates in Indian newsprint market unlike developed countries ison the back of strong user industry growth driven by economic growth and the rise in literacy rates.CRISIL Research estimated demand for newprint to grow by 9-10 per cent CAGR from 2.1million tones in 2011-12 to 3.4 million tones in 2016-17.The business outlook appears to be little satisfactory, as the cost of newsprint is rising in the domesticmarket due to increase in prices of fibrous raw materials and power & fuel as compared tointernational market, which remains stable. There is a demand fuelled by an increase in newspaperreadership. In the present scenario of growth in the newsprint industry, the domestic newsprintmanufacturing industry perceives an opportunity for investment in sustainable competitiveness.However, your Company has taken relentless efforts to create stability in the changing marketenvironment, and to provide platform for future growth.

i) Development of pilot plant for making Calcium chloride from limesludge.

ii) Chemi-mechanical pulping characteristics of wood under weatherprotected storage in comparison to normal open storage.

i) The pilot plant operation in making calcium chloride from lime sludgehas been demonstrated successfully and this has been proved tobe a viable option.

This has been initiated an over all savings of 6130/- per everyMT of Calcium chloride prepared.

ii) The two different mode of storage for different periods, the changestaken place in the wood are more or less same with respect towood density, alkali consumption, unbleached pulp brightness, pulpyield and strength properties up to 6 months. But marginal increasein peroxide requirement is observed for the material stored morethan 6 months under weather protected in comparison to normalopen storage. This is due to the possibility of fungal attack withprevailing humid weather, which may decay the material slowlywhen stored under weather protected than open storage. Beyond6 months storage, the strength properties decrease slowly.

In view of increased bleach chemical requirement for more than 6months storage of wood under weather-protected, normal openstorage is preferable.

a) Green liquor impregnation and Kraft pulping of Acaciaauriculaeformis a study on reduction in conventional cooking liquor.

1 Addition to Plant & Machinery under FixedAssets (Note11) includes a sum of 433.12 lakhswhich, in our opinion, is in the nature of repairs.This has resulted in a net understatement of Lossto the extent of 411.48 lakhs.

During the FY 2012-13, the company hasventured into Development of a new product, i.e.,Writing and Printing Paper with the existingNewsprint Machine. In order to transform thatendeavor into reality, an array of new additionsand System up-gradation was undertaken in thePaper Machine and Pulp Mills. Several otherPlants and Equipments were also revamped inorder to increase the speed and performance ofthe machine.

In this regard the paragraph 23 of the AccountingStandard 10 issued by the Institute of CharteredAccountants of India is reproduced below:

23. Subsequent expenditures related to an item offixed asset should be added to its book value onlyif they increase the future benefits from the exist-ing asset beyond its previously assessed standardof performance.

It can be asserted with conviction that the expen-diture incurred on schemes for up-gradations andadditions during the year have increased thefuture benefits from those assets beyond their pre-viously assessed/ stated standard of performancesuch that there is an increase in capacity/life ofthe asset as envisaged in paragraph 23 of AS 10.Therefore, we are absolutely correct in ourcontention that those expenditure surely qualifyas Capital Expenditure.

Moreover, on review of Accounts by C&AG, theyhave contradicted the opinion of the StatutoryAuditors and has confirmed that the accountingtreatment given by the Company for Fixed Assetsvaluing 1,58,52,795/- is in order.

In view of the above, the Assets which wereCapitalized during the year, righteously qualify tobe treated in the same manner.

2 Advance to suppliers under the head Short TermLoans & Advances (Note 17) includes 135.89lakhs paid to Workmen as Compensation onDisengagement from services over and above thefund available for this purpose. There is noagreement in force as on Balance Sheet date. This,in our opinion, is not in the nature of an advanceand a provision for the amount paid in excess oughtto have been made in accounts. Non provisionthereof has resulted in an understatement of Lossto the extent of 135.89 lakhs

HNL engages around 700 casual workers throughvarious Contractors for running the mill inaddition to its regular employees. A scheme wasintroduced in 2002 for separation with somemonetary benefit on attaining the age of 58.Accordingly the scheme Disengagement Compen-sation was launched with a share @ 3/- per dayof attendance for each worker to be contributedby the contractor. This was subsequently increasedto 5 and 7 in two phases. The schemeenvisages a payment of 15 days wages for eachcompleted year of service on the basis of lastdrawn wage. As the Principal Employer, theCompany will pay the amount initially.

It may kindly be noted that till 2006 there wascredit balance in the Accounts, which indicatesthat fund was available for separation. From 2007onwards the exodus of workmen was on a higherscale which led to the depletion of the fund andthe consequent debit balance.

Since almost all workers who joined the Companyduring 1978-1982 have now left the Company, theseparation will be miniscule from 2013-14.Further, it has been decided to enhance thecontribution considerably, so that the corpus willincrease and over a period of time the Fund willhave sufficient balance. It may please noted thatthe increase in the contribution can be made onlyat the time of negotiation for fixation of revisedwages. The Current wage period of the casualworkers has expired in January, 2013. The wageperiod is for 3 years. Already 2 rounds ofnegotiation have been conducted.

Hence the argument of the Auditor that thecompany needs to make provision in the accountsas the liability has crystallized during the year isnot correct. Accordingly it was decided not tomake any provision in the accounts for the aboveadvance payment made towards Compensationfor Disengagement.

3 Assets for disposal included in Other CurrentAssets, (Note 18), include an amount of 112.05lakhs being items of Fixed Assets scrapped duringthe year but credited in ‘Prior Period Expenses asRepairs & Maintenance’. This, in our opinion,should have been credited to Fixed Assets and notto prior period expenses. This has resulted in anunderstatement of Loss to the extent of 112.05lakhs.

During a communication meeting with the TradeUnions, one of the union members raised theissue that significant volume of scraps havebeen generated at various plants, which hadaccumulated at different locations over severalyears. There was no system in place to collect itin a centralized manner. Consequently there is nocontrol over the valuable material which ends upin wastage.

In response to the above criticism by the unionsand also to solve the issue of wastage, anenclosure under the commercial department wasidentified as a Scrap yard. It was also decidedthat all the scraps generated at different plantswould be accumulated at the said enclosure (Scrapyard), which would eventually be disposed off ata profit.

It may please be noted that considerable quantityof metal scraps were generated in the process ofrepairs and maintenance of Machinery andBuildings and the accumulation has taken placeover several years in the past. Since theexpenditure had already been accounted indifferent previous Financial years under the headRepairs and Maintenance, we have credited 112.05 lakh being the value of scrap to PriorPeriod Expenses.

Though the Auditor has objected to the aboveaccounting treatment, the company took anundivided opinion to account for the scrap insupport of the argument that identification andaccounting of scrap was essential to protect thescrap from being wasted as already indicatedabove.

OpinionIn our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us,

i) Addition to Plant & Machinery under Fixed Assets (Note 11) includes a sum of 433.12lakhs which, in our opinion, is in the nature of repairs. This has resulted in a net understatementof Loss to the extent of 411.48 lakhs.

ii) Advance to Suppliers under the head Short Term Loans & Advances (Note 17) includes 135.89 lakhs paid to Workmen as Compensation on Disengagement from services over

and above the fund available for this purpose. There is no agreement in force as on BalanceSheet date. This, in our opinion, is not in the nature of an advance and a provision for theamount paid in excess ought to have been made in accounts. Non provision thereof hasresulted in an understatement of Loss to the extent of 135.89 lakhs.

iii) Assets for disposal included in Other Current Assets, (Note 18), include an amount of 112.05 lakhs being items of Fixed Assets scrapped during the year but credited in ‘Prior

Period Expenses as Repairs and Maintenance’. This, in our opinion, should have been creditedto Fixed Assets and not to Prior Period Expenses. This has resulted in an understatement ofLoss to the extent of 112.05 lakhs.

iv) Hence, in our view, the ‘Profit before Tax’ (item XI) in the Statement of Profit & Loss forthe year ended March 31, 2013 would be (2476.42) lakhs as against (1817.00) lakhs.

Subject to the above, the financial statements give the information required by the Act in themanner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principlesgenerally accepted in India:

a) in the case of the balance sheet, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31stMarch 2013

c) in the case of the cash flow statement, of the cash flows for the year ended on that date
