• Details of “Amount demanded” are as follows
  
• “Salt produced domestically” in “Amount supplied” is mostly salt produced by the ion-exchange system.
• “Salt produced overseas” in “Amount supplied” is mostly imported sun-dried salt.
• Amounts of less than one unit are rounded and so the figure indicated as the total may not be the same as the total of the amounts added together.
• The amounts are for one year from April 1 to March 31 of the following year.
