INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The worst is over for India’s economy with gross domestic product likely to expand 5 %to 5.5 % this year and more than 6 % in 2015, according to Moody’s Analytics. Concerns over the rupee and current account deficit are under control, said the agency. Ratings firm Crisil has forecast 6 % growth for 2014/15 up from the estimated 4.8 % for 2013/14.  Total economic growth, infrastructure bottlenecks and lack of transparency and consistency in foreign direct investment policies seem to have taken a toll on India’s attractiveness as an investment destination, says an Ernst & Young survey.  Projects with FDI component fell 16.4 % across the globe in 2012 from the previous year.  The drop in India was steeper at 21 %. State run carrier Air India is doling out free tickets to its 24000 employees, even as it expects to incur a loss of Rs 39000 mn this financial year and has a debt of Rs 350000 mn. 550000 number of jobs generated across India in 2013, a fall of 0.4 % as compared to with a year earlier. The National  Capital Region has a one-fourth share in total jobs created, according to a study by industry lobby group Assochem, Banks, real estate, automobile and telecommunications sectors are showing a rise of job creation. $ 805 mn investments by venture capital firms in India during 2013, registering a drop of about 18 % over the previous year. The Information Technology and IT-Enabled  Services Industry retained its status as the favourable venture capital investors in 2013. Pakistan has temporarily banned gold imports for the second time in six months, as it tries to stem smuggling into India. India’s import duty on gold is 10 % and curbs on purchases have dried up legal imports into what used to be the world’s biggest bullion buyers. The World Gold Council puts the amount smuggled into India at upto 200 tonnes in 2013. The Reserve Bank of India has proposed that unclaimed bank deposits estimated to be about Rs 35000 mn be used for education and awareness among depositors.  According to the plan, deposits that have not been claimed for at least 10 years will be transferred to the scheme.

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

 

As per the NASSCOM Strategic report 2013, the global spend on Technology and related services for Calendar Year (CY) 2012 was US$ 1.9 trillion a growth of 4.8% over CY 2011. IT, BPM services and software products continued to lead, accounting for over USD 1 trillion – 58% of the total IT spend. IT hardware with growth rate of ~7%; touched USD 797 billion and accounted for the remaining 42% of the worldwide technology spend in 2012. With persistent uncertainties the new role of the technology sector in general is to enhance customer capabilities, help open untapped markets, drive transformation and create a positive impact on business outcomes.

 

Information Technology (IT) is the very essence of the telecommunication industry. New technologies, new business models, new smart phones and increasing data usage have increased the telecom industry’s dependence on IT. All along Telco’s have to deal with increasing competition, investment in Capex and declining margins. The challenge for Telco would be to balance the ever- increasing need for sophisticated IT with the need to help keep the IT costs reasonable. The size of India IT industry including domestic IT and Hardware would be ~USD 108 billion in FY13 of which exports would be ~USD $76 billion. Hi Tech / Telecom would have a share of ~18% of the India IT industry’s exports. Tech Mahindra would be one of the largest Telecom software services company in India.

 

For Indian IT FY 2013 has been a year of transition and transformation. Strong economic growth, rapid advancement in technology infrastructure, increasingly competitive Indian organizations, enhanced focus by the government and emergence of business models that help provide IT to new customer segments are key drivers for increased technology adoption in India.

 

The IT BPM sector has been one of the highest impact sector for India and it has increased its share of contribution to India’s GDP by ~3 times in the last 10 years. As a proportion of national GDP, the sector revenues have grown from 1.2% in FY1998 to ~ 8% in FY2013. The total exports share is ~24% which grew more than 5 times in the last 10 years. Expansion in new verticals and geographies, SMAC based services, transformation and innovation and business model restructuring were the key business drivers. Increased acceptance of platform BPM solutions was the key highlight as the focus was on transforming client business through a mix of re-engineering skills, technology enablement and new service delivery models.

 

Globally, India has been accepted as one of the disruptive forces in the IT BPM market, growing over CAGR of 25% during FY 2000 – 2013, four times higher than the global IT BPM spend during the same period. The Indian IT-BPM industry has maintained its global leadership not only due to its inherent strengths of competitive cost and talent, but also due to the fact that it has kept evolving to suit the rapidly changing client requirements. Pricing models have been shifting from traditional effort based to outcome based, also there has been emphasis on driving non-linearity.

 

The industry has seen a shift towards smaller deals. The fluctuating economic conditions have an indelible impact on the global IT BPM ecosystem. Client budgets have been under pressure which in turn has led to them signing up for small deals, of lesser duration. Line of business owners are going ahead with their but focused requirements. The trend signifies growing maturity of model and hence higher risk taking initiatives by clients. From around three lakh employee base in FY 2000, the industry presently employs nearly three Million people with over 580 global delivery centers in nearly 75 countries and its differentiated growth trajectory, the industry has become poster child for other sectors.

 

As a result of consumerisation of connected smart devices, consumer behaviour has caused an evolution and convergence of four powerful forces: Social Media, Mobility, Analytics and Cloud (SMAC). SMAC has re-oriented the business model of traditional IT-BPM firms, by shifting focus from cutting costs and managing IT infrastructure, to a move towards creative solutions that help clients’ business grow.

 

OUTLOOK

 

In the coming year; fiscal consolidation is likely to weigh on growth in the advanced economies. According to IMF the global economy is expected to continue mending gradually. In its April 2013 report, IMF expected the real global GDP growth of 3.3%, which is about the same as the 3.2% growth seen in year 2012. It mentions that for USA the private demand though has been showing strength as credit and housing markets heal; the larger-than-expected fiscal adjustment is projected to keep real GDP growth to about 2% in 2013. In the euro area, IMF expects the real GDP to contract by about 0.25% in 2013. Growth in emerging market and developing economies is expected to remain robust, strengthening from about 5% in 2012 to 5.25% in 2013 and 5.75% in 2014.

 

On IT spend trend, the budgetary tightening has led to smaller IT budgets translating to smaller deal sizes, and reduction in certain existing business lines and market segments. However, there is a clear delinking of overall IT-BPM spending with respect to economic turmoil in the past few years, and this has been fuelled by rising consumerisation of the enterprise segment, which has in turn, meant a lot for clients – it has led to increased competition, with players leveraging new forms of services to create a differentiating factor. It has also led to change management issues, and both these areas have been effective sources of new business for existing and new IT-BPM organizations. New areas such as mobile, social, cloud and analytics is increasingly driving technology spending, and will emerge as mainstays as this decade progresses further.

 

The global telecom services market is expected to remain roughly fl at over the several years, with declining spending on voice services and fixed services data counterbalanced by strong growth in spending on mobile data services. Devices remain the fastest-growing segment in the IT industry, as sustained strong demand for Smartphone’s and tablets is expected to overcompensate for stalling PC sales. In 2013, total spending on PCs, tablets, mobile phones and printers is expected to reach $718 billion, up 9% from 2012.

 

Mobility continues to grow with focus on bandwidth increases (4G/LTE) and complimentary devices. Spectrum availability and capital requirement for advanced technologies is a growing concern. The most important events in 2013 will cluster around growth and innovation, built on mobile devices, cloud services, social technologies and Big Data. IT spend in 2013 is expected to exceed $2.1 trillion, up 5.7% from 2012, driven by double-digit growth in the Three Platform foundations of Mobile, Cloud, Big Data and social technologies – and by emerging markets growth. Mobile devices are the new primary design point for end user access. Sale of smart mobile devices (smart phones and tablets) will surge. The real “PC versus mobile device” battle is between PC software platform and the mobile device platform.

 

As cloud services become the center of competition in many IT market segments, it is critically important for traditional IT suppliers to get more “cloud DNA” into their organizations and top accelerate growth of cloud service platforms. The industry is trending towards BYOD – Bring the Own Device. BYOD will bring consumerization into enterprise security. Growth is exponential in this area but uncertain tax, legal and security issues are still a concern. Businesses will struggle with enterprise social network sprawl as more businesses move from experimentation to integration — dealing with more enterprise products having embedded ESNs — while employees are increasingly reluctant to give up their favorite consumer and departmental social network tools for the corporate IT sponsored ESN.

 

Big Data Investment, MandA focus will shift heavily to discovery and prediction. The “digital universe” is expected to expand by almost 50% given the rapid emergence of new data capture and generation technologies and solutions. The growing focus is on technologies that incorporate advanced analytics functionality, including predictive analysis.

Notes:

 

1. The quarterly results have been reviewed by the Audit Committee and taken on by the Board of Directors in its meeting held on February 04, 2014.

 

2. Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement:

 

Pursuant to the Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement (the “Scheme”) sanctioned by the Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh vide its order dated June 11, 2013 and the Honorable High Court of Judicature at Bombay vide its order dated September 28, 2012, Venturbay Consultants Private Limited (“Venturbay”), CanvasM Technologies Limited (“CanvasM”) and Mahindra Logisoft Business Solutions Limited (“Logisoft”), the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, and Satyam Computer Services Limited (“Satyam”) an associate of the Company (through Venturbay) and C and S System Technologies Private Limited (C and S) a wholly owned subsidiary of erstwhile Satyam, merged with the Company with effect from April 01,2011 (the “appointed date”). The Scheme came into effect on June 24, 2013, the day on which both the orders were delivered to the Registrar of the Companies, and pursuant thereto the entire business and all the assets and liabilities, duties and obligations of Satyam, Venturbay, CanvasM, Logisoft and C and S have been transferred to and vested in the Company with effect from April 01, 2011.

 

In accordance with the Scheme, the investments held in the respective subsidiaries and associate have been cancelled and the Company has issued 2 equity shares of Rs. 10 each fully paid up in respect of every 17 equity shares of Rs. 2 each in the equity share capital of Satyam, aggregating 1035 Lakhs equity shares.

 

The Company transferred, out of its total holding in Satyam as on April 01, 2011, 2040 Millions equity shares to a Trust, to hold the shares and any additions or accretions thereto exclusively for the benefit of the Company. The balance shares held by the Company in Satyam have been cancelled.

 

As the other amalgamating companies i.e. Venturbay, Logisoft, CanvasM and C and S were wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company / Satyam, as applicable, no equity shares were exchanged to effect the amalgamation in respect thereof.

 

These amalgamations with the Company are non-cash transactions.

 

2.1 Accounting treatment of the amalgamation

 

The amalgamation is accounted under the ‘pooling of interest’ method as per Accounting Standard 14 as notified under Section 211 (3C) of the Companies Act, 1956 and as modified under the Scheme as under:

 

- All assets and liabilities (including contingent liabilities), reserves, benefits under income tax, benefits for and under special economic zone registrations, duties and obligations of Satyam, Venturbay, CanvasM, Logisoft and C and S have been recorded in the books of account of the Company at their existing carrying amounts and in the same form.

 

- The amount of Share Capital of Venturbay, CanvasM, Logisoft, Satyam and C and S have been adjusted against the corresponding investment balances held by the Company in the amalgamating companies and the equity shares issued by the Company pursuant to the Scheme and the excess of investments (gross) over the Share Capital, as given below, have been adjusted to reserves (“Amalgamation Reserve”).

 

- Accordingly, the amalgamation has resulted in transfer of assets and liabilities in accordance with the terms of the Scheme at the following summarised values:

 

- Further, in accordance with the Scheme, the debit balance in the Amalgamation Reserve as of April 01, 2011, if any, pursuant to the amalgamation have been adjusted against the securities premium account. The application and reduction of the securities premium account is effected as an integral part of the sanctioned Scheme which is also deemed to be the order under Section 102 of the Companies Act, 1956 (the “Act”) confirming the reduction. Accordingly, the aforesaid balance in Amalgamation Reserve aggregating Rs. 2489.200 Millions as of April 01, 2011 has been adjusted against the securities premium account.

 

- The Board of erstwhile Satyam had proposed a dividend for the year ended March 31, 2013 of Rs. 0.60 per equity share amounting to Rs. 826.400 Millions (including dividend tax thereon), which was provided for in its financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2013. Since the merger has become effective on June 24, 2013, the dividend could not be approved by the shareholders in the AGM which was scheduled to be held on August 02, 2013. Erstwhile Satyam shareholders, who have been issued Tech Mahindra Limited (TechM) shares in the ratio of 2 shares in TechM for 17 shares in erstwhile Satyam, are entitled to dividend of Rs 5 per share. As shares of erstwhile Satyam held by Venturbay are cancelled on the merger, there is an excess provision of dividend of Rs 217.200 Millions, relating to the said shares of Venturbay which have been cancelled, which has been reversed from the proposed dividend during the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

 

2.2 Other adjustments / matters arising out of amalgamation:

 

In terms of the Scheme, the appointed date of the amalgamation being April 01, 2011, net profit from the amalgamating companies during the financial years 2011-12 and 2012-13 aggregating Rs. 19735.500 Millions has been transferred, to the extent not accounted already, to the Surplus in Statement of Profit and Loss in the books of the Company upon amalgamation.

 

Pursuant to the Scheme, the title deeds for the immovable properties pertaining to the amalgamating companies are pending conveyance in the name of the Company. Further, the Company has initiated the name change formalities to transfer the title in respect of the other properties, contracts etc.

 

2.3 Appeals against the order sanctioning the Scheme

 

Appeals against the order by the single judge of the Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh approving the Scheme of merger have been filed by 37 comapnies before the Division Bench of the Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh. No interim orders have been passed and the appeals are pending hearing.

 

One of the said party/company has also appealed against the order of the single judge rejecting the Petition for winding up of erstwhile Satyam. The matter has been combined with the above appeals for hearing.

 

3. Matters pertaining to erstwhile Satyam Computer Services Limited (erstwhile Satyam):

 

3.1 Investigation by authorities in India

 

In the letter of January 07, 2009 (the “letter”) of Mr. B. Ramalinga Raju, the then Chairman of erstwhile Satyam, admitted that the Balance Sheet of erstwhile Satyam as at September 30, 2008 carried an inflated cash and bank balances, non-existent accrued interest, an understated liability and an overstated debtors position.

 

Consequently, various regulators/ investigating agencies such as the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) / Registrar of Companies (ROC), Directorate of Enforcement (ED), etc., had initiated their investigation on various matters which are yet to be concluded.

 

As per the assessment of the Management, based on the forensic investigation and the information available up to this stage, all identified/required adjustments/disclosures arising from the identified financial irregularities, had been made in the financial statements of erstwhile Satyam as at March 31, 2009.

 

Considerable time has elapsed after the initiation of investigation by various agencies and erstwhile Satyam had not received any further information as a result of the various ongoing investigations against erstwhile Satyam which required adjustments to the financial statements.

 

Further, in the opinion of the management, no new claims have been made when the Andhra Pradesh High Court considered and approved the merger which need any further evaluation/adjustment/disclosure in the books, and all existing claims have been appropriately dealt with/recorded/disclosed in the books based on their current status.

 

Considering the above, notwithstanding the pendency of the various investigations/ proceedings, the Management is of the view that the above investigations/proceedings would not result in any additional material provisions/ write-offs/adjustments (other than those already provided for, written-off or disclosed) in the financial statements of the Company.

 

3.2 Forensic investigation and nature of financial irregularities

 

Consequent to the aforesaid letter, the Government nominated Board of Directors of erstwhile Satyam appointed an independent counsel ("Counsel") to conduct an investigation of the financial irregularities. The Counsel appointed forensic accountants to assist in the investigation (referred to as “forensic investigation”) and preparation of the financial statements of erstwhile Satyam.

 

The forensic investigation conducted by the forensic accountants investigated accounting to identify the extent of financial irregularities and mainly focused on the period from April 01, 2002 to September 30, 2008, being the last date up to which erstwhile Satyam published its financial results prior to the date of the letter. In certain instances, the forensic accountants conducted investigation procedures outside this period.

 

The forensic investigation had originally indicated possible diversion aggregating USD 41 Million from the proceeds of the American Depositary Shares (ADS) relating to erstwhile Satyam. The amount was revised to USD 19 Million based on the further details of utilisation of ADS proceeds obtained by erstwhile Satyam.

 

The overall impact of the fictitious entries and unrecorded transactions arising out of the forensic investigation, to the extent determined was accounted in the financial statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2009 of erstwhile Satyam.

 

Based on the forensic investigation, an aggregate amount of Rs. 11393.200 Millions (net debit) was identified in the financial statements of erstwhile Satyam as at March 31, 2009 under “Unexplained differences suspense account (net)” comprising (i) Rs. 1731 Millions (net debit) where complete information was not available and (ii) Rs. 11220.100 Millions( net debit) being fictitious assets and unrecorded loans in the opening balance as at April 2002. On grounds of prudence, these amounts had been provided for by erstwhile Satyam in the financial year ended March 31, 2009. As there is no further information available with the Management even after the lapse of three years, the said amount of Rs. 11393.200 Millions has been written off in the financial statements of the Company for the nine months ended December 31, 2013.

 

The forensic investigation was unable to identify the nature of certain alleged transactions aggregating Rs. 123040 Millions (net receipt) against which erstwhile Satyam had received legal notices from 37 companies claiming repayment of this amount which was allegedly given as temporary advances. Refer Note 3.3 below.

 

3.3 Alleged advances

 

Consequent to the letter of the erstwhile Chairman, on January 08, 2009, the erstwhile Satyam received letters from thirty seven companies requesting confirmation by way of acknowledgement for receipt of certain alleged amounts referred to as “alleged advances”. These letters were followed by legal notices from these companies dated August 4/5, 2009, claiming repayment of Rs. 12304.000 Millions allegedly given as temporary advances. The legal notices also claim damages/ compensation @18% per annum from date of advance till date of repayment. The erstwhile Satyam has not acknowledged any liability to any of the thirty seven companies and has replied to the legal notices stating that the claims are legally untenable.  

 

The Directorate of Enforcement (ED) is investigating the matter under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 (“PMLA”) and directed the erstwhile Satyam to furnish details with regard to the alleged advances and has also directed it not to return the alleged advances until further instructions from the ED. In furtherance to the investigation by the ED, the erstwhile Satyam was served with a provisional attachment order dated October 18, 2012 issued by the Joint Director, Directorate of Enforcement, Hyderabad under Section 5(1) of the PMLA (“the Order”), attaching certain Fixed Deposit accounts of the Company aggregating Rs. 8220.000 Millions for a period of 150 days. This attachment was initiated consequent to the charge sheets filed by the CBI against the erstwhile promoters of erstwhile Satyam and others and investigation conducted by the ED under the PMLA. As stated in the Order, the investigations of the ED revealed that Rs. 8220.000 Millions constitutes “proceeds of crime” as defined in the PMLA. The erstwhile Satyam had challenged the Order in the Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh (“the Writ”). The Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh ("the High Court") has, pending further orders, granted stay of the said Order and all proceedings pursuant thereto vide its interim order dated December 11, 2012. The ED has challenged the interim order before the Division Bench of the Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh which is pending disposal. The ED has filed a petition before the Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh on June 03, 2013 to direct the banks with whom the aforementioned fixed deposits are held, not to allow the erstwhile Satyam to redeem/pre-close the Fixed Deposits pending disposal of the Writ. The petition is pending hearing.

 

The thirty seven companies had filed petitions / suits for recovery against the erstwhile Satyam before the City Civil Court, Secunderabad ("Court"), with a prayer that these companies be declared as indigent persons for seeking exemption from payment of requisite court fees.

 

Some petitions (except in the case of one petition where court fees have been paid and the pauper petition converted into a suit which is pending disposal), are before the Court, at the stage of rejection / trial of pauperism.

 

The remaining petitions are at a preliminary stage before the Court, for considering condonation of delay in re-submission of pauper petitions. In one petition, the delay had been condoned by the Court and the Company has obtained an interim stay order from the Honorable High Court of Andhra Pradesh.

 

The erstwhile Satyam had received legal notices from nearly all of the above companies, calling for payment of the amounts allegedly advanced by them (including interest and damages), failing which they would be constrained to file a petition for winding up the affairs of Satyam. In pursuance thereof, one of the aforesaid companies filed a winding up petition that was dismissed by the High Court. Against the said order of dismissal, the aforementioned company has filed an appeal before the Division Bench of High Court of Andhra Pradesh which is pending hearing.

 

Furthermore, even in connection with the merger proceedings, the erstwhile Satyam had received letters from the aforesaid companies claiming themselves to be "creditors". They had pleaded inter-alia before the High Court (hearing the merger petition of the erstwhile Satyam with the Company) that the mandatory provisions governing the scheme under the Companies Act have not been complied with in so far as convening a meeting of the creditors is concerned. They contended that without convening a meeting of the creditors and hearing their objections, the merger scheme could not be proceeded with.

 

To address these and other related objections, the High Court directed the Official Liquidator, with the assistance of a firm of Chartered Accountants ("the firm"), to scrutinise the books of the erstwhile Satyam and submit a report on the allegations aforesaid including the accounting system adopted by it with respect to the alleged advances.

 

The firm, in their report, inter-alia, stated that the erstwhile Satyam under its new management, was justified in not treating these amounts as creditors and in classifying these alleged advances as "Amounts pending investigation suspense account (net)".

 

The High Court after considering the report of the firm and other contentions of the erstwhile Satyam, held inter-alia, in its order approving the merger of the erstwhile Satyam with the Company, that the contention of the 37 companies that Satyam is retaining the money of the “creditors” and not paying them does not appear to be valid and further held that any right of the objecting creditors can be considered only if the genuineness of the debt is proved beyond doubt which is not so in this case.

 

The High Court in its order, further held that in the absence of Board resolutions and documents evidencing acceptance of unsecured loans by the former management of the erstwhile Satyam, the new management of the erstwhile Satyam is justified in not crediting the amounts received in their names and not showing them as creditors and further reflecting such amounts as Amounts pending investigation suspense account (net).

 

In view of the aforesaid developments and also based on legal opinion, the erstwhile Satyam's management's view, which is also the Company’s Management’s view, that the claim regarding the repayment of "alleged advances" (including interest thereon) of the 37 companies are not legally tenable has been reinforced. Accordingly, the Company’s Management believes that, even in the unlikely event that the principal amount of the claim of the 37 companies is held to be tenable and the Company is required to repay these amounts, such an eventuality will not have an adverse bearing on either the Company's profits or its reserves in that period, since the Company has been legally advised that no damages / compensation / interest would be payable even in such an unlikely event.

 

However, notwithstanding the above, pending the final outcome of the recovery suit filed by the 37 companies in the City Civil Court and the ED matter under the PMLA pending before the High Court, the Company, as a matter of prudence, at this point of time, is continuing to classify the amounts of the alleged advances as "Amounts pending investigation suspense account (net)", and the same would be appropriately dealt with/reclassified when the final outcome becomes clearer.

 

3.4. Provision for taxation

 

Erstwhile Satyam was carrying a total amount of Rs. 4989.200 Millions (net of taxes paid) as at March 31, 2013 (before giving effect to its amalgamation with the Company) towards provision for taxation, including for the prior years for which the assessments are under dispute.

 

Subsequent to the amalgamation, duly considering the professional advice obtained in the matter, the Management has re-evaluated the effects of the possible outcomes of the tax matters in dispute relating to erstwhile Satyam and the estimated excess tax provision amounting to Rs. 2266.000 Millions determined based on such evaluation in respect of the prior years has been written back during the current quarter. In the opinion of the Management the balance provision for taxation carried in the books with respect to the prior year disputes relating to erstwhile Satyam is adequate.

 

4. Exceptional item

 

The exceptional item (income) amounting to Rs. 1200.000 Millions represents write back during the current quarter of the estimated excess provision for contingencies provided in an earlier year by erstwhile Satyam, based on a re-evaluation of the same by the Management.

 

5. The Board of Directors of Tech Mahindra Limited (TechM) in their meeting held on November 29, 2013 have approved the scheme of amalgamation and arrangement (the “Scheme") which provides for the amalgamation of Mahindra Engineering Services Limited (MESL), under sections 391 to 394 read with sections 78, 100 to 104 and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. The Scheme also provides for the consequent reorganization of the securities premium of TechM. The Appointed date of the Scheme is April 01, 2013.

 

The Board of Directors of TechM have recommended to issue 5 fully paid up Equity Shares of Rs 10 each of TechM for every 12 fully paid Equity Shares of Rs. 2 each of MESL

 

The Company has received approval from Competition Commission of India (CCI) on January 10, 2014. Approvals from Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange are awaited. After receipt of necessary approvals from Bombay Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange Company will file the scheme with High Court of Bombay.

 

The merger is effective only once order received from Honorable High Court of Bombay and is filed with the Registrar of Companies (‘ROC’).

 

6. The results for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2013 include the results of merged entities giving effect to the scheme discussed in note 2 above, while the results of the corresponding periods in the previous years and the previous year ended March 31,2013 does not include the results of the merged entities and hence the same are not comparable.

 

7. Current tax for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2013 includes provision of Rs. 29.800 Millions and Rs. 239.200 Millions (nine months ended December 31, 2012 Rs. 259.000 Millions) of earlier years written back, no longer required as the company has received the refund on finalisation of assessment.

 

8. Previous period figures have been regrouped/rearranged wherever necessary.

 

9. The qualification in the Auditors' Report for the nine months ended December 31, 2013, is summarised below;

 

The Auditor has qualified their report on the following ground;

 

With respect to the matters described in Note 3.3 above, in the absence of complete / required information, and since the matter is sub-judice, their inability to comment on the accounting treatment/adjustments/disclosures relating to the aforesaid alleged advances amounting to Rs. 12304.000 Millions (net) and the related claims for damages/compensation/interest, which may become necessary as a result of the ongoing legal proceedings and the consequential impact, if any, on these financial results. However, in the eventuality of any payment upto Rs 123040 Millions, against the aforesaid claims for the principal amounts of the alleged advances, there will be no impact on the profits/losses or reserves of the Company.
