advances, deposits, in the ordinary course of business will not be less
than the value stated in Balance Sheet.
5. Balances in respect of some of the debtors, creditors, advances
and deposits are subject to confirmation.
6. Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds:
On 20th July, 2007 the Company issued 150 foreign currency convertible
bonds (FCCB) of a face value of USD 100,000 each aggregating USD 15.0
million. As per the terms of the issue, the holders have an option to
convert FCCB in to equity shares at an initial conversion rate of Rs
312.84 per equity share at a fixed exchange rate subject to certain
price adjustment as per the terms of the issue. However as a result of
terms of issue, the conversion price as on date is Rs 250.40 per share.
Further under certain conditions, the Company after July 20,2010 but
before July 21,2012 has an option for earlier redemption of the bonds,
in the whole, but not in part. Unless previously converted or redeemed
or purchased and cancelled, the Company will redeem these bonds with a
redemption premium of 7.75% (which is identical to the gross to the
yield in case of redemption at maturity) calculated on a semi-annual
basis.
The FCCBs as detailed above are hybrid instruments with an option of
conversion into specified number of shares and an underlying foreign
currency liability with redemption at a premium in the event of non
conversion at the end of the period. A number of factors would
influence the conversion decision including movement in the quoted
price of the Company's shares, the rate of exchange, interest rates in
the market, the growth in financial performance and profitability of
the Company and the performance of the industry in which the Company
operated, etc. In the opinion of the Company, the lesser number of
conversions into equity shares is a temporary aberration due to the
current economic conditions. The Company expects that the bond holders
would continue to opt for conversion rather than redemption and
consequently no premium are expected to be payable and therefore, the
same is not provided for and the outstanding amount has been treated as
Long Term Borrowing.
7. During the year under review the Company has raised short term
loan of Rs. 15,00,00,000/- ( Rupees Fifteen Crores Only) through
'Commercial Paper' and the same is outstanding as on the date of
Balance Sheet.
8. Pursuant to the provisions of Sections 205A and 205C of the
Companies Act, 1956, the dividend which remains unclaimed/unpaid for a
period of seven years from the date of transfer to the unpaid dividend
account is required to be transferred to the Investor Education and
Protection Fund (IEPF) established by the Central Government.
As seven years have not expired from date of transfer to the unpaid
dividend account, the amount is not required to be transferred to
Investor Education and Protection Fund (IEPF)
9. There are no specific claims from suppliers under interest on
delayed payments covered under Small Scale & Ancillary Act, 1993.
10. The company does not have any dues payable to any micro, small and
medium enterprises as at the year end. The identification of the
micro, small & medium enterprises is based on management's knowledge of
their status. The Company has not received any intimation from the
suppliers regarding their status under the MSMED Act 2006. Hence,
disclosures, if any, relating to amounts unpaid as at the year end,
together with interest paid / payable as required under the said act
have not been given.

On July20, 2007 the Company issued 150 foreign currency convertible
bonds (FCCB) of a Face Value of USD 100000 each aggregating USD 15.0
million. As per the terms of the issue, the holders have an option to
convert FCCB in to Equity Shares at an initial conversion rate of Rs
312.84 per equity share at a fixed exchange rate subject to certain
price adjustment as per the terms of the issue. However as a result of
terms of issue, the conversion price as on date is Rs 250.40 per share.
Further under certain conditions, the Company after July 20, 2010 but
before July 21, 2012 has an option for earlier redemption of the bonds,
in the whole, but not in part. Unless previously converted or redeemed
or purchased and cancelled, the Company will redeem these bonds with a
redemption premium of 7,75% percent (which is identical to the gross to
the yield in case of redemption at maturity) calculated on a semiannual
basis.
The FCCBs as detailed above are hybrid instruments with an option of
conversion into specified number of shares and an underlying foreign
currency liability with redemption at a premium in the event of non
conversion at the end of the period. A number of factors would
influence the conversion decision including movement in the quoted
price of the Companys shares, the rate of exchange, interest rates in
the market, the growth in financial performance and profitability of
the company and the performance of the industry in which Company
operated, etc. In the opinion of the Company, the lesser number of
conversions into equity shares is a temporary aberration due to the
current economic conditions. The Company expects that the Bond holders

same is not provided for. However, in the event of redemption, the
premium payable would be adjusted against the balance in the Share
Premium Account. The bond redemption reserve earlier transferred
amounting Rs. 10,34,05,942/- has been reversed back to Share Premium
