CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING YEAR Your Company had commenced implementing projects relating to Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) and Linear Alkyl Benzene (LAB) of a licenced capacity of 1,00,900 tonnes and 60,000 tonnes per annum respectively in the previous financial year. As stated in the last year s report, due to unexpected delay in receiving certain clearances, the projects entailed delay in commissioning. With a view to synchronise the commissioning of these projects with the accounting year and reflect a consolidated position in respect of fixed assets, increase in equity capital with corresponding extinguishment of debt, and, achieving the product range envisaged, the Company extended the accounting period to 30th June 1988. Your Company has obtained approvals as are necessary from the requisite authorities for changing the financial year from calendar year to 30th June. The current financial year of the Company is, therefore, of 18 months as against 12 months in the previous year. 4. RESOURCE MOBILISATION 4.1 Your Company has always followed the Government policy of mobilising resources for all its capital intensive projects from the primary capital markets and has been approaching the investing public including its shareholders frequently with a view to set up a strong industrial base for itself as also to contribute its best to the national economy. in pursuit of this endeavour, your company has expended on fixed assets Rs.1,860 crores, (first in the private sector in India) in the last one decade, that is, ever since it went to public for resource mobilisation. Apart from contributing to the development of equity cult in the country, the Company has also gained the confidence of about 30 lacs investors, again the highest in the private sector and has thus established itself as a peoples company. 4.2 The Equity share capital of the Company increased during the financial year under review from Rs.51.61 crores to Rs.152.10 crores. The net worth of the Company scaled an all time peak of Rs.1,022.12 crores from Rs.311.53 crores in the previous year. The resounding success to the Rights Equity Issue of Rs.198 crores offered to the shareholders of the Company at a time when the capital market was sluggish, reflected the unflinching support its to be enjoyed by your Company continued shareholders and the investing public. These equity shares were offered at a premium of Rs.50 per share, thus from Reliance enabling the shareholders to increase their holdings in the Company and to share the increasing prosperity of the Company in future. 300%-400% in a short span of about 3-4 months, offset the aforesaid benefits. Further, the depreciating rupee also increased the cost of imported raw materials. 4.3 With a view to augment the long ter m resources, your Company. pursuant to the Consent Order received from the Controller of Capital Issues (CCI) issued 14% Non Convertible Secured Debentures of an aggregate nominal value of Rs.80 crores. Your Directors confirm that the funds raised through issue of Non Convertible Debentures were/will be utilised only for the purposes for which they were raised. 5 YEAR IN RETROSPECT 5.1 Overall Performance: The sales. during the financial year under review rose to Rs.1,771 crores (approx.) as compared to Rs.905 crores (approx) in the previous year, registering an increase of about 30.39% on an annual basis. The gross profit (after interest charges) jumped to Rs.172.15 crores against Rs.75.15 crores for the previous year. a rise of 52.73% on an annual basis. The net profit rose to Rs.80.77 crores as against Rs.14.17 crores in the previous year. Your Company contributed as much as Rs.801 crores (approx.) to the national exchequer in the form of various taxes during the period under review. With the declaration of final dividend on the equity shares, your company would have distributed a massive aggregate amount of Rs.56 crores which is 71 % of the after tax profit of the financial year under review to the large family of its shareholders aggregating to approximately 16 lacs spread tar and wide in the country and abroad. 5.2 Textile Division Your Company has par tly completed its moder nisation programme at Ahmedabad during the year under review. With this, the Company has enhanced its very sophisticated product range to a high growth area of furnishing fabrics. The Company has successfully introduced these fabrics in the local market and has received encouraging trade and consumer response. The fact that this new product group has received large export orders from international quality conscious consumers bears testimony that the Company is and will continue to be on the leading edge of technology. The Company is currently examining var ious options for maintaining market leadership, in terms of technology, product development and marketing, and. hopes to implement the same in the coming years. 5.3 Fibre Division 5.3.1 Polyester Yarn Division The Company maintained its growth in annual production and sales in Polyester Yarn during the year under review. The industry had their long standing demand par tly accepted b y the Gover nment for rationalisation of excise duty on polyester filament yarn by a reduction in excise duty in the Central budget 1988-89 from Rs.83.75 to Rs.56.12 per kg. The entire benefit of excise duty reduction was passed on to the consumers. However, a multi fold increase in the input costs especially of MEG. a vital input where international prices soared over. The Company has under taken to explore expor t opportunities for this highly competitive product and has been able to make an international break-through by exporting substantial quantities to the EEC and Korea. 5.3.2 Polyester Staple Fibre Division During the year under review, the Company s polyester staple fibre plant was not operated to its capacity owing to low demand by industrial users. The industry was able to realise its long standing request for reduction in excise duty from Rs.25 to Rs.15.66 per kg. These benefits were passed on to the consumers. Severe r ise in input cost of the impor ted raw materials and the depreciating rupee-offset the benefit given to the industry. The Company s product has been accepted as the leading product in terms of quality in the Indian market. Your company has expor ted large quantities of polyester fibre to highly developed countries like USA where the Company s product quality has matched that of leading American producers. It would be interesting to note that Du Pont supplied the original technology and currently your company is working under a programme for marketing products made in India under Du Pont technology in the USA and other countries using the world wide market network of Du Pont under their brand name. You would appreciate that this is a very creditable achievement for your company. Your Company plans to expor t substantial quantity in the coming years. 5.4 Fibres Intermediate Division 5.4.1 Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) The Company has commissioned, in 1988, its single largest project at Patalganga with a licensed capacity of 100,000 tonnes per annum in collaboration with Messrs. Imper ial Chemical Industries plc U.K. and Messrs. UOP Processes International Inc. USA. With the commissioning of this facility, your Company will have access to its own raw material for manufacturing polyester and will also be able to supply this very efficient raw material for the manufacture of polyester to other quality conscious consumers in India.With the commissioning of this PTA plant, your company would be able to save foreign exchange to the tune of Rs.100 crores per annum. 5.5 Detergents Intermediate Division 5.5.1 Linear alkyl Benzene (LAB) Your Directors are pleased to further state that the project for manufacture of Linear Alkyl Benzene (LAB) was commissioned in the second quarter of 1988 with a licensed capacity of 60,000 tonnes per annum. With the help of Messrs. UOP Processes International Inc. USA, as the technical collaborator for the project, the company has been able to produce high quality LAB which has been accepted by brand leaders in India. However, due to bunching of impor ts, there was an excess supply of LAB. With the aggressive marketing policies adopted by the company, your company expects to perform better in the coming years. 6. RELIANCE PETROCHEMICALS LIMITED Your Directors after due considerations thought it fit to set up all Petrochemical Projects through another company inter-alia with 9 Reliance a view to speedily implement the Letters of, Intent/Industrial Licences as also to effect better control and avail of fiscal benefits/incentives. Fur thermore, in the light of the government consider ing opening of new vistas of gr owth in the petrochemicals sector, your Company decided that it will be in the interest of shareholders to have a subsidiary company. With this end in view, your Company promoted Reliance Petrochemicals Limited (RPL) to implement Letters of Intent/ Industrial Licences received for. the manufacture of Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC), Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG) and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) at Hazira, Dist. Surat. It has obtained consents from the concerned authorities for endorsement of these Industrial Licences/Letters of Intent for implementation of the aforesaid projects in the name of RPL. After the close of the financial year, RPL, in accordance with the Consents received from the Controller of Capital Issues (CCI), Government of India, New Delhi has issued Equity Shares of an aggregate nominal value of Rs.57.50 crores for cash at par to your company as promoter. In conformity with the Consent Order issued by CCI, your Company has also made an unsecured interest free deposit of Rs.50 crores with RPL conferring a right of compulsory conversion of the said loan into Equity Shares in RPL for cash at par on the expiry of 36 months from the date of allotment of the debentures recently issued by it. Your Directors have placed on record their deep sense of appreciation of the faith reposed by the investing public in the Reliance Group by subscribing to the Convertible Debentures issued by RPL in large numbers. With the allotment of debentures, RPL enjoys the suppor t of about 23 lacs shareholders. 7. REDEMPTION OF DEBENTURES Your Company has refunded a sum of Rs.0.59 crore to the debentureholders of Debentures of Series I, II, III and IV who had surrendered their debentures upon redemption out of the outstanding value of the said Debentures of Rs.1.18 crores. Despite reminders to the Debentureholders, a sum of Rs.0.59 crore (approx.) is still payable and the same will be paid as and when requests are received from the debentureholders. 8. INVESTORS’ SERVICES Your directors are gratified to place on record the growth of its investor community over the years. In 1977, the total number of investors were about 50,000 and after five years i.e. in 1982, it was 5 lacs (approx.). It has after another five years risen to 30 lacs (approx.). Your Company had earlier innovated a few measures such as consolidation of folios, appointing centres for distributing certificates, etc. However, with the efflux of time, it was found that the pace of servicing was not matching with the growth of the investors’ strength. Therefore, during the year the Company appointed 14 Investor Relations Centres at important townships/cities in the countr y primarily to service the investors. These centres also serve the share broker frater nity in coordinating their requirements with Reliance Consultancy Services Limited, the Registrars and Transfer Agents of the Company at Bombay with regard to routine transfer of shares/ debentures and matters incidental thereto. Your Company is intending in due course of time to further strengthen these centres by installing speedier communication services. 9.

(a) The Company has been advised that the computation of net profit (for the Purpose of Directors’ remuneration under section 349 of the Companies Act 1956) need not be enumerated since no commission has been paid to the Directors and only minimum remuneration has been paid to the Directors as per the approval of the Central Government received under Section 198 and Section 309 of the Companies Act. 1956.

(Rs. in crores) 1986 Rs. 1987-88 Rs. 0.06 0.02 –– 0.04 0.03 0.01 –– 0.02 11. The Company has been accounting liability for Excise and Custom Duty in respect of finished products. as well as raw materials lying in factory/bonded premises as and when they are cleared/debonded. Accordingly. estimated liability amounting to Rs.18.79 crores in respect of such items at the end of the financial year has not been provided for in the accounts and hence not included in the valuation of inventory. (a) Foreign Currency loans availed of during the period to acquire plant and machinery have been accounted for in Indian Rupees at the exchange rates prevailing on relevant dates. 12. (b) No effect has been given in the Accounts to the fluctuations in rates of exchange with regard to outstanding balance of foreign currency loans. (c) The Company. after the commencement of commercial production has consistently been treating difference on account of fluctuation in exchange rates on payments of instalments of loans, deferred credit facilities, etc., as a revenue expenditure and the same amounting to Rs.10.25 crores (Previous year Rs.4.32 crores) has been included under the head General Expenses; 13.

Balance of profits of the current financial year together with those for the subsequent period upto 31st March, 1989 will be assessable in assessment year 1989-90 as one composite income in view of the amended provisions of section 3 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. Since the Company is expecting substantial reliefs on account of Investment Allowance and Export Incentives promised by Government for Assessment Year 1989-90, the liability towards income Tax cannot reasonably be quantified. Hence liability for taxation if any in respect of the profit of the balance period taxable in Assessment Year 1989- 90 will be accounted for in the next year. If provision for taxation had been made only in respect of profits upto 30th June, 1988, the same would have amounted to Rs. 10 crores, in view of provision of section 115J of Income Tax Act, 1961 . ii) iii) iv) However, the balance in General Reserve is adequate enough to cover estimated liabilities on this account, if any. 14.

In respect of debentures issued during the financial year pursuant to the guide lines, the Company has on a pro rata basis, allocated Rs.4.25 crores towards creating a Debenture Redemption Reserve as would accumulate the reserve to 50% of the total face value Of such debentures at the time of redemption. (a) Depreciation on assets has been provided for the entire financial year on straight-line method at the rates prescribed by Schedule XIV to the Companies (Amendment) Act 1988 read with Section 205(2)(b) of the Companies Act 1956. Depreciation in respect of additions to and deductions from assets has been charged on pro-rata basis with reference to the period of use of such assets. The provision for depreciation for multiple shifts wherever applicable as per records and as advised, has been made on the basis of the actual utilisation of respective eligible assets. 15. 16. (b) Upto last year. depreciation was provided in accordance with the provisions of Section 205(2)(b) of Companies Act. 1956, after considering extra shift allowance for all units of the Company as a whole and not in respect of individual asset. (c) Had the Company continued the same practice during the current financial year. depreciation would have been higher by Rs,28.91 crores and the closing inventory would have been higher by Rs.4.37 crores and the net profits would have been lower by Rs.24.54 crores. (a) During the financial year, the Company had applied for endorsement of Industrial Licences/Letters of Intent for manufacture of HDPE, PVC, MEG, Chlorine and Caustic Soda in favour of its Subsidiary Company, viz. Reliance Petrochemicals Limited. The requisite endorsements have since been accorded by the concerned authorities.
