Financial Derivatives Hedging Transactions:

(3) (a) The Company has entered into currency option contracts to the tune of US$54 million for hedging its future US$ revenue

for a period upto three years based on highly probable forecast | firm commitment transactions. These range forward

contracts are covered under “Forex risk management policy” of the company and meets the test of hedge effectiveness.

Under the said options, the rate of US$ - INR has been fixed for the entire period of the option. The outstanding currency

option contracts as at March 31, 2009 was US$51.5 million.

The MTM loss valuation of Rs5,484.09 lacs in respect of these range forward contracts as at March 31, 2009 provided

by the bank indicates the amount, the Company will have to pay to bankers, if it wishes to rescind the options contract

as at the date of Balance Sheet. The MTM valuation also assumes that the Company has no US$ inflows that would arise

to it during the tenure of the option contracts and it therefore assumes that Company would be meeting this obligation

by acquiring the relevant foreign exchange from the open market.

Based on the past history of the operations of the Company as well as the projected plans in the future, the Company

will have robust inflow in US$ during the tenure of the said options. The Company believes that the options would

safeguard it from US$ fluctuation in future.

The unrealised loss consequent to foreign currency fluctuations in respect of these effective hedging instruments though

not recognised now will be ultimately set off in the Profit and Loss Account when the underlying transaction arises when

it will be possible to precisely know the impact.

Considering the above facts and due to material uncertainty arising from future events mentioned in the range forward

contracts and rate over the period of three years, the management is of the view that it is not "known loss" and it is not

a prudent practice to deliberately overstate liabilities or expenses because, if such notional losses are provided for, the

reliability and quality of the financial statement will be vitiated and therefore no provision for the liability and MTM loss

of Rs5,484.09 lacs on account of such range forward contracts has been made in the books as at March 31, 2009.

In the view of the management this will give more reliable financial statements without unrepresentative volatility in the

Profit and Loss Account

(b) Rs0.97 lacs (realised loss), Rs18.05 lacs (realised gain) and Rs13.47 lacs (unrealised loss) on interest SWAP is included in

interest paid on loan. Rs63.81 lacs (realised loss), Rs1.70 lacs (realised gain) and Rs461.32 lacs (unrealised loss) on currency

as per Accounting Standard - 11 on "The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates (Revised 2003)".
