Status and Nature of Business ICI Pakistan Limited ("the Company") is incorporated in Pakistan and is listed on Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad Stock Exchanges. The Company is engaged in the manufacture of polyester staple fibre, POY chips, soda ash, paints, specialty chemicals, sodium bicarbonate and polyurethanes; marketing of seeds, toll manufactured and imported pharmaceuticals and animal health products; and merchanting of general chemicals. It also acts as an indenting agent. The Company's registered office is situated at 5 West Wharf, Karachi. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 2.1. Statement of compliance These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with approved accounting standards as applicable in Pakistan. Approved accounting standards comprise of such International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board as are notified under the Companies Ordinance, 1984, provisions of and directives issued under the Companies Ordinance, 1984. In case requirements differ, the provisions of, or directives issued under the Companies Ordinance, 1984 shall prevail. 2.2. Basis of preparation These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except that certain property, plant and equipment have been included at revalued amounts and certain exchange elements referred to in note 2.8 have been recognised in the cost of the relevant property, plant & equipment. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with approved accounting standards requires management to make estimates, assumptions and use judgments that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities and income and expenses. Estimates, assumptions and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including reasonable expectations of future events. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised prospectively commencing from the period of revision. Judgments and estimates made by the management that may have a significant risk of material adjustments to the financial statements in subsequent years are discussed in note 40. 2.3. Staff retirement benefits The Company's retirement benefit plans comprise of provident funds, pensions, gratuity schemes and a medical scheme for eligible retired employees. Defined benefit plans The Company operates a funded pension scheme and a funded gratuity scheme for management staff. The pension and gratuity schemes are salary schemes providing pension and lump sums, respectively. Pension and gratuity schemes for management staff are invested through two approved trust funds. The Company also operates gratuity scheme for non-management staff and the pensioners' medical scheme which are unfunded. The pension and gratuity plans are final salary plans. The pensioner's medical plan reimburses actual medical expenses. The Company recognises expense in accordance with IAS 19 "Employee Benefits". An actuarial valuation of all defined benefit schemes is conducted every year. The valuation uses the Projected Unit Credit method. Actuarial gains and losses are amortised over the expected average remaining working lives of employees as allowed under the relevant provision of IAS 19 "Employee Benefits". Defined contribution plans The Company operates two registered contributory provident funds for its entire staff and a registered defined contribution superannuation fund for its management staff, who have either opted for this fund by 31 July 2004 or have joined the Company after 30 April 2004. 2.4. Provisions A provision is recognised in the balance sheet when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of obligation. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expected expenditures, discounted at a tax rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risk specific to the obligation. 2.5. Trade and other payables Trade and other payables are recognised initially at fair value plus directly attributable cost, if any, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 2.6. Dividend Dividend distribution to the Company's shareholders is recognised as a liability in the period in which the dividends are approved. 2.7. Taxation Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in the profit and loss account, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or below equity, in which case it is recognised in equity or below equity respectively. Current Provision for current taxation is based on taxable income at the enacted or substantively enacted rates of taxation after taking into account available tax credits and rebates, if any. The charge for current tax includes adjustments to charge for prior years, if any. Deferred Deferred tax is recognised using balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using the enacted or substantively enacted rates of taxation. The Company recognises a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits for the foreseeable future will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. Further, the Company recognises deferred tax asset / liability on deficit / surplus on revaluation of property, plant and equipment which is adjusted against the related deficit / surplus. 2.8. Property, plant and equipment and depreciation Property, plant and equipment (except freehold land, leasehold land and plant & machinery) are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Freehold land, leasehold land & plant machinery are stated at revalued amounts less accumulated depreciation. Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost. Cost of certain property, plant and equipment comprises historical cost, exchange differences recognised in accordance with the previous Fourth Schedule to the Ordinance, cost of exchange risk cover in respect of foreign currency loans obtained for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment upto the commencement of commercial production and the cost of borrowings during construction period in respect of loans taken for specific projects. Depreciation charge is based on the straight-line method whereby the cost or revalued amount of an asset is written off to profit and loss account over its estimated useful life after taking into account the residual value if material. The cost of leasehold land is amortised in equal installments over the lease period. Depreciation on additions is charged from the month in which the asset is available for use and on disposals up to the month of disposal. The residual value, depreciation method and the useful lives of each part of property, plant and equipment that is significant in relation to the total cost of the asset are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. Surplus on revaluation of property, plant and equipment is credited to the surplus on revaluation account. Revaluation is carried out with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount of assets does not differ materially from the fair value. To the extent of the incremental depreciation charged on the revalued assets the related surplus on revaluation of property, plant and equipment (net of deferred taxation) is transferred directly to unappropriated profit. Maintenance and normal repairs are charged to income as and when incurred. Renewals and improvements are capitalised when it is probable that respective future economic benefits will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably, and the assets so replaced, if any, are retired. Gains and losses on disposal of assets are taken to the profit and loss account, and the related surplus on revaluation of property, plant and equipment is transferred directly to retained earnings (unappropriated profits). 2.9. Intangible assets Intangible assets are measured initially at cost and subsequently stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Computer software Acquired computer software licenses are capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. Costs associated with developing or maintaining computer software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. Costs that are directly associated with the production of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Company, and that will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year, are recognised as intangible assets. These costs are amortised over their estimated useful lives. 2.10. Impairment Financial assets A financial asset is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect of the estimated future cash flows of that asset. Non-Financial assets The carrying amounts of non-financial assets other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are assessed at each reporting date to ascertain whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the assets's recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised, as an expense in the profit and loss account, for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less cost to sell and value in use. Value in use is ascertained through discounting of the estimated future cash flows using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the assets. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. 2.11. Investments Investments in subsidiary and non listed equity securities classified as available for sale are stated at cost less provision for impairment, if any. 2.12. Stores and spares Stores and spares are stated at lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using weighted average method. 2.13. Stock-in-trade Stock-in-trade is valued at lower of weighted average cost and estimated net realisable value. Cost comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value signifies the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less net estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. 2.14. Trade debts and other receivables Trade debts and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value plus directly attributable cost, if any, and subsequently measured at amortised cost. A provision for impairment of trade and other receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. 2.15. Foreign currency translation Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Pak Rupees, at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into Pak Rupees at the foreign exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences are taken to the profit and loss account. 2.16. Functional and presentation currency Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the company operates. The financial statements are presented in Pakistani Rupees, which is the company's functional and presentation currency. 2.17. Revenue recognition � Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer. For those products which are often sold with a right of return, accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for such returns at the time of sale. � Commission income is recognised on date of shipment from suppliers. � Profit on short-term deposits and mark-up on loan to subsidiaries is accounted for on a time-apportioned basis using the effective interest method. � Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established. 2.18. Financial expense Financial expenses are recognised using the effective interest method and comprise foreign currency losses and interest expense on borrowings. 2.19. Segment reporting A segment is a distinguishable component within a company that is engaged in providing products under a common control environment (business segment), or in providing products within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other segments. 2.20. Finance lease Leases that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset are classified as finance lease. Assets subject to finance lease are stated at amounts equal to the fair value or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. The minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. Assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated in accordance with the Company's depreciation policy on property, plant and equipment. The finance cost is charged to profit and loss account and is included under financial charges. 2.21. Operating lease Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. 2.22. Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash in hand and current and or deposit accounts held with banks. Running finance facilities availed by the Company, which are payable on demand and form an integral part of the Company's cash management are included as part of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of statement of cash flows. 2.23. Borrowings and their cost Borrowings are recorded at the proceeds received. Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which these are incurred except to the extent of borrowing cost that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Such borrowing costs, if any, are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. 2.24. Financial liabilities All financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value plus directly attributable cost, if any, and subsequently measured at amortised cost. 2.25. Derivative financial instruments The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operational, financing and investment activities. In accordance with its treasury policy, the Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. However, derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are accounted for as trading instruments. 2.26. Off-setting Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the financial statements only when there is legally enforceable right to set-off the recognised amount and the Company intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and to settle the liabilities simultaneously. 3.

In respect of income earning financial assets and interest I mark-up bearing financial liabilities, the following table indicate their effective interest / mark-up rates at the balance sheet date and the periods in which they will re-price or mature: Interest/mark-up bearing ======================================================================================================================= Effective Maturity Maturity Maturity Non-interest Mark-up / upto one one to five after five /mark-up Total interest rates % year years years bearing 2007 ======================================================================================================================= Financial Assets Long term investment - - - - 2,500 2,500 Long term loans 4 & Kibor � 1 - 96,000 - 108,867 204,867 Long term deposits - - - - 21,120 21,120 Trade debts - - - - 1,049,464 1,049,464 Loans and advances 4 & Kibor + 1 24,000 - - 113,680 137,680 Trade deposits - - - - 12,323 12,323 Other receivables - - - - 351,619 351,619 Cash and bank balances 8.50 1,950,000 - - 1,665,056 3,615,056 1,974,000 96,000 - 3,324,629 5,394,629 Financial Liabilities Trade and other payables 7.50 56,092 - - 5,689,172 5,745,264 56,092 - - 5,689,172 5,745,264 Net financial assets / (liabilities) 1,917,908 96,000 - (2,364,543) (350,635) ======================================================================================================================= ======================================================================================================================= 2006 ======================================================================================================================= Financial Assets Long term investment - - - - 2,500 2,500 Long term loans 4 - 72,000 - 103,687 175,687 Long term deposits - - - - 54,987 54,987 Trade debts - - - - 730,676 730,676 Loans and advances 4 48,000 - - 49,543 97,543 Trade deposits - - - - 4,208 4,208 Other receivables - - - - 431,749 431,749 Cash and bank balances - 520,000 - - 1,271,151 1,791,151 568,000 72,000 - 2,648,501 3,288,501 Financial Liabilities Trade and other payables 7.50 56,670 - - 4,951,874 5,008,544 56,670 - - 4,951,874 5,008,544 Net financial assets / (liabilities) 511,330 72,000 - (2,303,373) (1,720,043) =======================================================================================================================37. Credit and Concentration of Credit Risk Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognised at the reporting date if counter-parties failed completely to perform as contracted. The Company does not have significant exposure to any individual customer. To reduce exposure to credit risk the Company has developed a formal approval process whereby credit limits are applied to its customers. The management also continuously monitors the credit exposure towards the customers and makes provision against those balances considered doubtful of recovery. The sector wise analysis of receivables, comprising trade debts, deposits, loans excluding loans to associates and other receivables is given below: ========================================================================================= Amounts in Rs '000 2007 2006 Public Sector ========================================================================================= - Government 157,883 69,759 - Armed forces 5,038 2,835 - Communication 2,368 422 - Oil and gas 1,379 2,574 - Health 1,251 - - Trade 63,647 63,385 - Others 22,371 45,160 253,937 184,135 Private Sector - Institutional 84,991 24,052 - Trade 985,817 667,291 -Bank 8,775 2,148 - Others 326,053 499,724 1,405,636 1,193,215 1,659,573 1,377,350 =========================================================================================38. Foreign Exchange Risk Management Foreign currency risk arises mainly where receivables and payables exist due to transactions entered into foreign currencies. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on sales, purchases and borrowings, if any, that are entered in a currency other than Pak Rupees. The Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge its foreign currency risk, when considered appropriate. 39. Capital Risk Management The Company's objective when managing capital is to safe guard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders; and to maintain a strong capital base to support the sustained development of its businesses. The Company manages its capital structure by monitoring return on net assets and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in economic conditions. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividend paid to shareholders or issue new shares. 40. Accounting Estimates and Judgements Income Taxes The Company takes into account the current income tax law and decisions taken by appellate authorities. Instances where the Company's view differs from the view taken by the income tax department at the assessment stage and where the Company considers that its view on items of material nature is in accordance with law, the amounts are shown as contingent liabilities. The tax department reopened the income tax assessment for the assessment year 2001-2002 on the ground that demerger of PTA business from ICI Pakistan Ltd. was effective from the completion date i.e. August 6, 2001. This was challenged by the Company in the High Court which upheld the Company's contention that the department did not have the right to reopen this finalized assessment. The department has however filed an appeal in the Supreme Court against the High Court's order. For the assessment year 2002-2003, the Company has filed the writ petition in the Supreme Court challenging the tax department's contention that the effective date of PTA's demerger was August 6, 2001 rather than the effective date given in the Scheme of Arrangement as October 1, 2000 and reopen a settled issue through review of the PTA tax demerger. The Income tax department reopened the assessment for the year 1998-99 which was set aside by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT). The department revised its order working out an additional tax liability of As 298.8 million which in view of our tax consultant is contrary to the direction given by the ITAT, in his view the Company has a strong case and would be able to get the decision in its favour. Pension and Gratuity Certain actuarial assumptions have been adopted as disclosed in note 6 to the financial statements for valuation of present value of defined benefit obligations and fair value of plan assets. Any changes in these assumptions in future years might affect unrecognized gains and losses in those years. Property, plant and equipment The estimates for revalued amounts, if any, of different classes of property, plant and equipment, are based on valuation performed by external professional valuers and recommendation of technical teams of the Company. The said recommendations also include estimates with respect to residual values and depreciable lives. Further, the Company reviews the value of the assets for possible impairment on an annual basis. The future cashflows used in the impairment testing of assets is based on management's best estimates which may change in future periods. Any change in the estimates in future years might affect the carrying amounts of the respective items of property, plant and equipment with a corresponding affect on the depreciation charge and impairment. 41. Initial Application of a standard or an interpretation Standards, amendments and interpretations effective in 2007 Amendment to IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements - Capital Disclosures", introduces new disclosures about the level of an entity's capital and how it manages capital.

Standards or Interpretations not yet effective The following standards, interpretations and amendments of approved accounting standards are effective for accounting periods beginning from the dates specified below. These standards are either not relevant to the Company's operations or are not expected to have significant impact on the Company's financial statements other than increase in disclosures in certain cases: Revised lAS 1 - Presentation of financial statements (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2009).

Revised lAS 23-Borrowing costs (effective from 1 January 2009). Revised lAS 23 removes the option to expense borrowing costs and requires that an entity capitalize borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset as part of the cost of that asset. The application of the standard is not likely to have an effect on Company's financial statements. IFRIC 11 - IFRS 2-Group and Treasury Share Transactions (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 March 2007).
