Notes:-

1.      The above unaudited financial results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and taken on record by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on October 27, 2009. These are subject to limited review by the Statutory Auditors.

2.      The Company is engaged primarily in printing and publication of Newspaper and Magazines in India. The other activities of the Company comprise of outdoor advertising, event management services and SMS services.  However, these in the context of the Accounting Standard 17 on Segment Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India are considered to constitute one single reportable segment.

3.      There is no qualification of Auditors except the one regarding amortization of the Title-Dainik Jagran (“the Title”) as contained in previous year’s audit report.

         Considering the fact that post migration to IFRS, the Company will no longer be required to amortise the Title but will test the same for impairment, should there arise a triggering event, the Company has not amortised the value of the Title of Rs. 1,700 lakhs.

 4.     Number of investor complaints/queries outstanding at the beginning of the quarter was NIL, number of complaints/queries received and disposed off during the quarter was 34 and outstanding number of complaints/queries at the end of the quarter was NIL.

 5.     An interim dividend of Rs. 2 per equity share of face value of Rs. 2 each has been declared for the financial year 2009-10 at the above board meeting.

 6.     Figures are re-grouped/re-cast, wherever necessary to make them comparable.
