 6. IN CASE THE COMPANY HAS FAILED TO SPEND THE TWO PERCENT OF THE AVERAGE NET PROFIT OF THE LAST THREE FINANCIAL YEARS OR ANY PART THEREOF, THE COMPANY SHALL PROVIDE THE REASONS FOR NOT SPENDING THE AMOUNT IN ITS BOARD REPORT 

During the year under review, the company has spent Rs. 21.84 Lakhs on the beautification of the chowk in front of RakhBagh. The total cost of the project of beautification of the chowk is about 45 Lakhs. The project is under process. The remaining amount has been spent on the chowk in the current financial year. An amount of Rs. 34.94 Lakhs has already been spent on the project till 01.08.2017. The Company was not able to spend the full amount of two percent of the average net profit of the last three financial years as recommended under the CSR Rule. CSR Committee met 4 times during the period under review and made a policy to provide scholarship to poor students and for the eradication of poverty for eligible persons. However the company could not implement the policy as it was not able to demarcate the associations and the areas where it should spend the money and due to Non Availability of Suitable Implementing Agency, the company is in a better position now to implement its CSR policy effectively.

7. A RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT OF THE CSR COMMITTEE THAT THE IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING OF CSR POLICY, IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH CSR OBJECTIVES AND POLICY OF THE COMPANY. 

The CSR Committee confirms that implementation and monitoring of CSR Policy is in compliance with CSR policy of the Company framed pursuant to the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and rules made thereunder.
