Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Managements Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Companys Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair
view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Accounting
Standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956 (the Act) read with the General
Circular 15/2013 dated 13 September 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in respect of Section 133 of the Companies

preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit
in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards
require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the
auditor considers internal control relevant to the Companys preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the financial statements
give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the
accounting principles generally accepted in India:

THE RAJAGIRI RUBBER AND PRODUCE COMPANY LIMITED, ALAPPUZHA


NOTES ON ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH, 2014
Direct Expenditure on Replanting of Tea and Cardamom including upkeep and maintenance expenditure on immature
plants is charged to Profit and Loss account with credit to Subsidy on replanting Tea and Cardamom as Revenue.
In case of Rubber the said expenditure is debited to Reserve Account with sale proceeds of old and uneconomical
rubber trees uprooted for replanting and Subsidy on replanting credited to Reserve Account.
Provision for Rehabilitation of Rubber Trees, based on annual production of Rubber, after taking into consideration
the credits as to sale proceeds of trees and Subsidy on replanting, is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss by
crediting to Reserve Account.
13 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earning per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity
shareholders after deducting Preference Dividend and attributable taxes by weighted average number of equity
share holders outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during
the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a right issue, share split, and reverse share
split (Consolidation of Shares) that have changed the number of Equity Shares oustanding without a corresponding
change in resources.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity
shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects
of all dilutive potential equity shares.
14 PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITY
Provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past event, is probable that an
outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate
can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted to their present value and are
determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These estimates are
reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Contingent Liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the
occurance or non occurance of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a
present obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to
settle the obligation. Contingent Liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be
recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognise contingent Liability but
discloses its existence in financial statements.
Contingent Assets are neither recognised nor disclosed.
15 CASH FLOW STATEMENT:
Cash Flow Statement is prepared segregating the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.
Cash flow from operating activities is reported using indirect method. Under the indirect method, the net profit is
adjusted for the effects of:
(i) Transactions of a non-cash nature
(ii) Any deferrals of accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and
(iii) Items of Income or expense associated with investing or financing cashflows.
Cash and Cash equivalents (including bank balances) are reflected as such in Cash Flow Statement.

290.85 acres. Out of the above 290.85 acres, 200 acres forms part of forest land in Chulika Estate which was
already vested with the Government under a different Act.
The issue was concerning 90.85 acres (falling under survey No.2/1B of Raroth village) in erstwhile Poonoor
Estate. Since this part of the land is no more in our possession, the Taluk Land Board, Vythiri, Wayanad District,
directed us to surrender an equvalent extent of land in Chulika Estate vide order dated 22.05.2012. This order
has been challenged before the High Court of Kerala and is still pending.
c) During 1974-75 the Forest Department had vested 93.18 Acres (37.10 Hectares) falling as enclaves in blocks
within the planted area. The Companys application before the Forest Tribunal in OA No.94/1975 was dismissed
on 10.02 2009. The Management challenged this order before the Kerala High Court in Case No.MFA 284/2009
and the matter is pending.
In the year 2001, the Forest Department vested two blocks namely 108.67 Acres (43.8200 Hectares) and 21.45
Acres (8.650 Hectares). The Companys application before the Forest Tribunal, Kozhikode in OA 47 of 2001 was
dismissed on 29.2.2005.
The Management challenged this before the Kerala High Court. The Court decided that 21.45 Acres cannot be
vested as forest. The Forest Department filed a Review Petition (P No.599 of 2010) and the same was dismissed
by the Kerala High Court on 18.10.2010. The Management has written to the Forest Department to restore this
area. We were informed that the Forest Department has gone on appeal before the Supreme Court.
d) The dispute to title raised by Kerala Varma Raja as having Jenmam right on 250.00 acres (101.174 Hectares) in
the erstwhile Poonoor Estate,in a suit OS No.338/1993 in Sub Court, Kozhikode. The company claims fixity of
tenure under the Kerala Land Reforms Act which can only be decided by the Land Tribunal, Kozhikode, and they
seized of the matter in Case No.RC 3/2002. A Revenue Inspector was appointed to visit the estate and file his
report. The Revenue Inspector inspected the property on 29.6.2003 and has given a favourable report to the
Land Tribunal, Kozhikode. The Land Tribunal has to now hear the matter and pass appropriate order based on
the report of the Revenue Inspector,and the same is pending
e) Pending final decisions of the Courts, the financial liabilities, if any, of the Company are not ascertainable and
therefore not provided for in the accounts.

SEGMENT REPORTING:
The operations of the Company relate to Plantation crops, which is the significant business segment and therefore
no separate reporting is made.
