                The figures for the corresponding periods in the previous year, are not comparable with the current period’s figures due to the following reasons:
                
                  - The current financial year started on 1st July 2005 and thus, the cumulative figures are for the nine months period ended 31st March’06, whereas the figures for the corresponding period are for fifteen months ended 30th June’05.
 
                  - Figures pertaining to the different periods of the previous year are inclusive of Power Unit Plant and Power Products Division, which have been sold to AVTEC Limited on 28th June 2005.
