4 Finance cost includes interest on income tax, interest and other costs incurred on short and long term borrowings, interest accrued on lease liabilities under Ind AS 116, effects from fair valuation of derivatives relating to financing activities, realised (gain)/ loss on rollover of derivatives relating to financing activities, exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs.

5 Tax expense includes provision for current income tax, tax expense for previous periods, minimum alternate tax and deferred tax charge/ (credit) including minimum alternate tax credit (based on estimated average effective annual income tax rate, considering tax allowances). The Company has elected to exercise the option permitted under Section 115BAA of the Income Tax Act, 1961 from current year onwards. Accordingly, the Company has recognized Provision for Income Tax for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 based on the rates prescribed in the said section.

6 The Company has received demand notices from the Commercial Tax Department, Karnataka aggregating Rs. 7,446.7 million (including interest and penalty) for the period 2006-07 to 2016-17, by treating the stock transfers of its Mangalore Plant as interstate sales to dealers. However, recovery of demands for period 2006-07 to 2015-16 have been stalled by the Hon'ble Karnataka Appellate Tribunal. The Company has filed an appeal along with stay application against demand order for year 2016-17.

The Company has also filed a Writ Petition before the Hon'ble Karnataka High Court against the order passed by Hon'ble Central Sales Tax Appellate Authority (CSTAA).

Based on the expert legal advice obtained by the Company, it does not consider these stock transfers as interstate sales. Hence no provision is considered necessary in the books.

  • 7 The COVID-19 situation continues to evolve. The Company has evaluated the impact of this pandemic on its business operations, liquidity and financial position and based on management’s review of current indicators and economic conditions, no additional adjustment is required in the financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Given the uncertainty associated with its nature and duration, the impact may be different from that estimated as at the date of approval of these financial results. The Company will continue to monitor any material changes to future economic conditions.

  • 8 Previous period figures have been regrouped/ reclassified, wherever necessary to conform to current period classification.

  1. We have reviewed the unaudited financial results of BASF India Limited (the “Company”) for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 which are included in the accompanying ‘Statement of Unaudited Financial Results for the quarter ended June 30, 2021’ (the “Statement”). The Statement has been prepared by the Company pursuant to Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the “Listing Regulations, 2015”), which has been signed by us for identification purposes. The Statement is the responsibility of the Company’s management and has been approved by the Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the Statement based on our review.

  2. We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement (SRE) 2410, “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity” issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This Standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement.

  3. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

  4. Based on our review conducted as above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Statement has not been prepared in all material respects in accordance with the applicable Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 and other recognised accounting practices and policies and has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations, 2015 including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

  5. We draw your attention to Note 6 of the financial results, which describes the status of certain demand notices received by the Company from the Commercial Tax Department, Karnataka and the management’s assessment in respect of the same, based on the legal advice obtained by the Company. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
