our business strategy, planned projects, revenue and profitability (including without limitation, any
financial or operating projections or forecasts) and other matters discussed in this Letter of Offer that
are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements and any other projections contained in this

and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results,
performance or achievements of our Company to be materially different from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or other
projections. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about

include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section “Risk Factors” on page 22.

By their nature, market risk disclosures are only estimates and could be materially different from what
actually occurs in the future. As a result, actual future gains, losses or impact on our revenue could

of the date of this Letter of Offer or the respective dates indicated in this Letter of Offer, and neither
our Company nor any of the Lead Managers undertakes any obligation to update or revise any of

Risk relating to our business

1. The novel coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic outbreak and steps taken to control the same have
significantly impacted our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows
and further impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain.

The rapid and diffused spread of COVID-19 and global health concerns relating to this outbreak
have had a severe negative impact on all businesses including automobile and auto-component
sector and could continue to have an impact that may worsen for an unknown period of time.
Currently, there is substantial medical uncertainty regarding COVID-19 and till any vaccine or
cure is found, this pandemic may continue to cause unprecedented economic disruption in India
and in the rest of the world. The scope, duration and frequency of such measures and the adverse
effects of COVID-19 remain uncertain and could be severe.

The impact of COVID-19 on the auto-component sector is at four levels. Firstly, in order to
contain the spread of the infection, the national lockdown which was effected from March 25,
2020, has impacted the sales of auto OEMs as these products do not constitute “essential
products” and dealerships, the principal channels of sale for auto OEMs were not allowed to
function as part of the lockdown imposed by the Government of India and relevant state
governments thus inflicting adverse impact on revenue and profitability of companies in the
sector. Auto OEMs are the largest customers for companies in the auto-component sector
including our Company and the impact on sales of auto OEMs have adversely impacted the

22
revenues and profitability of companies across the sector including our Company. While all our
facilities are currently operating, certain facilities are operating at partial capacity. While the
lockdown restrictions are being lifted in a staggered manner, we are not certain and cannot assure
you on time it may take to normalise operations.

Secondly, auto sales being discretionary and large-ticket in nature to an extent, may not achieve
pre-COVID-19 sales post lifting of the lockdown. The consumers may not choose to shop
discretionary products as compared to essentials, immediately after lifting of lockdown owing to
inter alia, economic slowdown and job cuts leading to less disposable income for discretionary
spends. Auto sales are also highly dependent on availability of financing and willingness of
buyers to avail such financing for buying the vehicles. While RBI has taken steps to improve the
liquidity in credit markets, we are not certain on when availability of financing and willingness of
buyers to avail such financing for buying the vehicles will reach pre-COVID-19 levels. Therefore,
even if the restriction on movement and functioning of dealerships are removed, the pace of
recovery and growth in sale of automobiles and in result our Company might be significantly
slow.

Thirdly, auto-component sector relies on suppliers which may be present in different parts of the
country and across the globe. While our manufacturing units may be operational, local regulations
in jurisdictions such suppliers operate in may restrict the ability of such suppliers to operate. If
our suppliers fail to provide essential raw material in a timely manner or at the level of quality
necessary to manufacture our products or if we were to experience a significant or prolonged
shortage of supplies from any of our suppliers, and are unable to procure the supplies from other
sources, we would be unable to meet our production schedules and to supply such products to our
customers in timely fashion. Any such delay may expose us to consequential damages being
sought by our customers which would adversely affect our sales, margins and customer relations,
operating results and/or our financial condition.

Fourthly, our Company has various manufacturing facilities across countries which are subject to
differing regulations to contain the spread of COVID-19. Such measures may vary in scope,
duration and frequency and may adversely impact our ability to operate our manufacturing
facilities seamlessly. In case any of our manufacturing facilities are required to stop operations,
we may be required to service customers from other manufacturing facilities, forego business or
hold higher inventory to mitigate such risks. The impact of any such shutdown of one of more our
manufacturing facilities remain uncertain and could be severe. We are also required to maintain
enhanced sanitization protocols across our manufacturing facilities which may increase our
expenses and adversely impact efficiencies our team.

The economic disruption could slow down credit as lenders may be hesitant to lend in COVID-19
environment. This could impact our ability to raise funds for managing our operations.
Accordingly, new credit may be availed by us in accordance with terms which may be stringent as
compared to the past.

Accordingly, COVID-19 has resulted in fall in sales, and we continue to incur fixed cost
(including the salary/ wage cost for our employees) and interest cost on debt, which has had an
adverse impact on our cash flows and is expected to adversely impact our results of operations in
the short-term. In order to mitigate some of the impact, our Company has taken various initiatives
to manage its costs across the organization and also took actions to conserve cash which is critical
in times of crisis. Our Company may have had to delay payments to be made to certain third
parties including our vendors, temporarily impose restrictions on certain expenses and re-
negotiate wages for some of our employees. While we believe that aforesaid measures are largely
consistent with steps being undertaken by the industry, we cannot assure you that such measures
will not lead to adverse impact on our reputation, loss of opportunities and higher employee
attrition.

23
We are not able to predict the duration and severity of the current economic conditions and as a
consequence, our financial results for a particular period are difficult to predict, and, therefore,
prior results including financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected in future periods.

Further, our financial results for the first and subsequent quarters of Fiscal 2021 which will be
declared as per regulatory requirements are likely to be significantly impacted due to lockdown
during the first few months of the financial year as well as under the given situation.

The spread of COVID-2019 and the recent developments surrounding the global pandemic have
materially adversely impacted all aspects of our business. The Government of India introduced a
series of measures to prevent the spread of the virus. While the lock down measures have been
lifted there is no known cure/vaccine for the virus and consequently movement of people and
business is limited.

2. Automobile sales had slowed down significantly even prior to -COVID-19 and we are not
certain that even after the impact of COVID-19 is over such sales will recover

Substantially all of our business is directly related to vehicle sales and production by our
customers, who consist primarily of large automotive OEMs, and demand for our products is
largely dependent on the industrial output of the automotive industry. The sales, volumes and
prices for vehicles are influenced by the cyclicality and seasonality of demand for these products.
The automotive industry has been cyclical in the past and we expect this cyclicality to continue.
Our operations and performance are directly related to levels of global vehicle production and are
therefore affected by factors that generally affect the automotive industry. The automotive
industry is sensitive to factors such as consumer demand, consumer confidence, disposable
income levels, employment levels, fuel prices and general economic conditions.

Even before COVID-19 related slowdown and disruptions, automobile sales in India had been de-
growing. We believe that the de-growth was on account of slow-down in the overall economy,
higher insurance costs and the scheduled adoption of BS-VI norms and are not certain that even
after the impact of COVID-19 is over automobile sales will recover. Weak automobile sales will
impact demand for auto-components manufactured and supplied by our Company to our OEM
customers and will materially impact our business outlook, result of operations and financial
condition.

3. A significant portion of our revenue from sale of products is concentrated amongst a limited
number of customers.

Globally, the automotive industry is dominated by a limited number of OEMs and despite our
diversified product portfolio, we derive a significant percentage of our revenue from a limited
number of customer. While we have long-standing relations with some of our major customers,
the loss of any one of our key customers or a significant reduction in demand from such
customers, if not replaced, could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.

Decline in the vehicle demand could prompt OEMs to reduce their production volumes, directly
affecting the demand for our products from such OEM customers. In addition to decline in
demand for existing products, insufficient demand for new products launched by our OEMs,
financial difficulties experienced by any of our large volume OEM customers or their inability to
obtain financing for their business may also have a material adverse impact on our result of
operations.

24
Further, our dependence on such major OEMs could potentially impact our ability to negotiate
favourable contract terms which may impact our margins, working capital requirements and
consequentially our result of operations.

4. Our contractual arrangements with our OEM customers are generally requirement contracts,
and any termination of such contract or decline in the production requirements of any of our
customers, in particular for any of our large customers, could materially and adversely affect
our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Pursuant to the prevalent automotive industry practice, we do not have firm commitment supply
agreements with most of our customers and instead we rely on purchase orders to govern the
volume and other terms of our product sales. We enter into agreements with our OEM customers
for specific products, which include general terms of sale, specification requirements and pricing
policy, but such agreements do not obligate our customers to place an order with us. Actual orders
are based on purchase orders issued by our customers from time to time. However, such orders
may be amended or cancelled prior to finalisation, and should such an amendment or cancellation
take place, it may adversely impact our production schedules. We supply substantially all of our
products to our customers pursuant to purchase orders for specific products for particular vehicles,
which are governed by terms and conditions established by each OEM customer.

In most instances, our OEM customers agree to purchase their requirements for specific products
but are not mandatorily required to purchase any minimum quantity of products from us. Further,
such conditions provide flexibility to our customers to place order for a lesser quantity of products
in the purchase orders in spite of a higher number being specified in the contract. Accordingly, we
face the risk that our OEM customers might place lesser-than-expected orders or may even cancel
existing orders (including where deliveries were to be made in the future) or make changes to
their policies which may result in reduced quantities being manufactured by us for our customers.
Some OEM customers may also contract with an alternative supplier for the same vehicle
platform. The purchase orders we receive from some customers specify a per-unit price, the
delivery schedule and the requisite quantities.

Our supply contracts with our OEM customers typically provide for the supply of our products for
a specified time period, typically ranging from one and up to three years. Since our customers
typically have no obligation to purchase a specific quantity of products, the discontinuation of, or
a decrease in demand for, certain models or group of related models sold by any of our major
customers or resourcing or discontinuation or purchasing from us, for a particular model or group
of models, could have a material impact on us. The COVID-19 outbreak and the measures taken
by various governments/ authorities to contain the spread of COVID-19 has led to our OEM
customers significantly reducing the quantities purchased under such supply contracts and we are
not certain regarding the duration taken for order quantities to revert to pre-COVID-19 levels.

We typically commit to order raw materials and sub-assembly components from our suppliers
based on our customer recommendations, forecasts and orders. Cancellation by customers or any
delay or reduction in their orders can result in a mismatch between the inventory of pre-
constructed components, raw materials and the manufactured product that we hold. This could
also result in excess inventory and increased working capital, till such time as such products are
sold. This could materially affect the orderly management of our inventory and could potentially
impact our production.

In addition, we make significant decisions, including setting up of facilities, determining the


levels of business that we will seek and accept, production schedules, component procurement
commitments, personnel requirements and other resource requirements, based on our estimates of
customer orders. This may require us to increase staffing, increase capacity, engage sub-
contractors and incur other expenses to meet the anticipated demand of our customers, in relation
to changes (such as order getting delayed or cancelled) which could cause reductions in our

25
margins. We cannot assure you that we will be able to realise the value of investments made by us
on the basis of such contractual arrangements and any such loss may have an adverse impact on
our results of operations.

5. We have manufacturing facilities across various countries which depend on a network of


vendors across the globe for our operations. Any disruption in trade relations globally may
adversely impact our operations.

Our Company has manufacturing facilities across various countries which services our OEM
customers as well as supply components for after-sales market. As a part of our sourcing strategy
and global supply chains, our Company engages with suppliers from across the globe.
Additionally, our OEM customers are involved in manufacturing of automobiles which may be
exported to different countries. Any imposition of trade restrictions, such as tariffs, due to trade
friction or protectionist policies to safeguard domestic industries can have a significant adverse
impact on our business and results of operations.

Further, any deterioration of trade relations amongst major trading countries across the globe may
impact our ability to source raw materials, components and sub-assemblies from suppliers who
may be best suited or are the most economic suppliers for such raw materials, components and
sub-assemblies and we may be required to develop alternate source for such raw materials,
components and sub-assemblies which may require us to incur additional expenses, require us to
enter into agreements at terms inferior to our existing supply contracts and expose us to quality
related issues.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to find such alternative suppliers on terms acceptable to
us in a timely manner and or at all and any such delay may expose us to consequential damages
being sought by our customers which would adversely affect our sales, margins and customer
relations, operating results and/or our financial condition.

6. Product liability and other civil claims and costs incurred for any reason owing to a product
recall; could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our customers use our products for critical applications, and in the event, that our products fail to
perform as expected or such failure results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury or property
damage or both we may be subject to product liability. We procure certain materials and bought-
out parts from our suppliers, and while we believe that such suppliers follow quality standards in-
line with industry standards, any failure of such components may enhance our product liability
risk. There can be no assurances that we will not become subject to product liability claims or that
we will be able to successfully defend ourselves against any such claims. The outcome of
litigation and other legal proceedings that we may be involved in the future is difficult to assess or
quantify. Plaintiffs may seek recovery of very large or indeterminate amounts, and the magnitude
of the potential loss relating to such lawsuits may remain unknown for substantial periods of time.
Defence and settlement costs can be substantial, even with respect to claims that have no merit.

Vehicle manufacturers have their own policies regarding product recalls and other product
liability actions relating to their suppliers. However, as suppliers become more integrally involved
in the vehicle design process and assume more vehicle assembly functions, vehicle manufacturers
may seek compensation from their suppliers for contributions when faced with product recalls,
product liability or warranty claims. Vehicle manufacturers are also increasingly requiring their
suppliers to provide warranties for their products and bear the costs of repair and replacement of
such products under new vehicle warranties.

Depending on the terms under which we supply products, our customers may hold us responsible
for some or all of the repair or replacement costs of defective products under new vehicle
warranties provided by us or by our customers, when the products supplied do not perform as

26
expected. A successful warranty or product liability claim or costs incurred for a product recall in
excess of our available insurance coverage and provisions made by us, if any, would have an
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and/or our financial condition. Further, as a
result of product liability legislation, civil claims may be brought against OEMs, and we may be
made parties to such claims where damages may have been caused by any faulty products that we
produced. We cannot assure you that such claims will not be brought against us in the future, and
any adverse determination may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition. Our insurance coverage taken for this purpose could not be sufficient to cover
losses or other costs which we may incur.

7. The automotive component industry is characterised by intense competition, which could


reduce our sales or put continued pressure on our sales prices.

The Indian automotive component industry is highly competitive. The principal competitive
factors in this industry include:

 product quality and features;


 innovation and product development time;
 a company’s reputation as a manufacturer and distributor of quality products;
 ability to control costs;
 pricing and financial terms;
 reliability and safety; and
 a company’s level of service (including maintaining sufficient inventory levels for timely
deliveries)

Many of our competitors may have longer operating histories and strong financials, greater
market penetration, operations in diversified geographies and product portfolios, research and
development, marketing and more resources than we do. Consequently, many of our competitors
may be able to develop products and/or processes competitive with, or superior to, our own.
Furthermore, we may not be able to differentiate our products from those of our competitors; to
successfully develop or introduce new products on a timely basis or at all, that are less costly than
those of our competitors; or to offer customers payment and other commercial terms as favourable
as those offered by our competitors. Our competitors include automotive component
manufacturing companies, both domestic and foreign. If our competitors outperform our business
and develop superior products at a lesser cost in a timely manner, our growth and financial results
could be adversely affected.

Increased consolidation among our competitors or between our competitors and any of our OEM
customers could allow competitors to further benefit from economies of scale, offer more
comprehensive product portfolios and increase the size of their serviceable markets. This could
require us to accept considerable reductions in our profit margins and the loss of market share due
to price pressure. Furthermore, competitors may gain control over or influence our suppliers or
customers by shareholdings in such companies, which could adversely affect our supplier
relationships. Our inability to form such alliances or adequately adjust our customer pricing in
response to customer demand or market trend in a timely manner, or at all, could have a material
adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, cash flows and financial
condition.

8. We significantly rely on our suppliers and if these suppliers fail to deliver necessary raw
materials, systems and parts of appropriate quality in a timely manner our operations may be
disrupted.

Our business depends on suppliers, who provide the raw materials and essential parts that we
require to manufacture our products and to operate our business. We use a variety of raw

27
materials in our business including metals (such as aluminum, copper and lead), plastics and other
electronic components. We source materials from a limited number of suppliers and cannot
guarantee that we will be able to maintain uninterrupted access to these sources, or the price of
such products, which in some cases may be affected by factors outside of our control and/or the
control of our suppliers. This essentially exposes us to the risk of price fluctuations and if required
to change the suppliers on account of price escalation, we may be subject to a variety of supply
risks. In addition, prices for these raw materials fluctuate and while we seek to manage this
exposure, we may not be successful in mitigating these risks. Furthermore, we have limited ability
to monitor the financial stability of our suppliers.

We undertake procedures internally to ensure that we procure raw materials of the highest quality
and from reputed and well known suppliers. Further, there can be no assurance that strong
demand, capacity limitations or other problems experienced by our suppliers will not result in
shortages or delays in their supplies to us. If our suppliers fail to provide essential raw material in
a timely manner or at the level of quality necessary to manufacture our products or if we were to
experience a significant or prolonged shortage of supplies from any of our suppliers, and are
unable to procure the supplies from other sources, we would be unable to meet our production
schedules and to supply such products to our customers in timely fashion. Any such delay may
expose us to consequential damages being sought by our customers which would adversely affect
our sales, margins and customer relations, operating results and/or our financial condition.

9. Discontinuance or non-availability of fiscal benefits enjoyed by us or our inability to comply


with related requirements may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our Company avails various benefits under the applicable laws with respect to its business. For
instance, our Company has taken Advance Authorisation (‘AA’) and Export Promotion Capital
Goods Scheme (‘EPCG’) licenses under Foreign Trade Policy and is availing exemption from
basic customs duty, social welfare surcharge and integrated goods and services tax on import of
goods meant for export production subject to compliance with the stipulated requirements. In case
our Company is unable to fulfil the requirement of terms and conditions vis –a –vis such schemes
then our Company may not be able to take advantage of such scheme as well as we will be liable
to refund the advantage already taken. The Government of India or respective state governments
may stop providing such benefits and any discontinuation of the schemes under which we avail
benefits by the government may affect our financial condition.

10. We incur significant costs in developing new products for our customers and we may not
achieve the targeted return on investment on such products.

While we incur significant costs in developing new products in accordance with requirements of
our customers, there can be no assurance that such products will be successful or that we will
achieve the targeted return on investment on such activities. In the past, we have developed and
registered product patents and have also filed registrations for various designs required for the
business. There can be no assurance that such R&D activities will result in new significant
marketable products or enhancements to our products, design improvements, cost savings,
revenues or other expected benefits. If we spend significant time and effort on R&D and are
unable to generate an adequate return on our investment, our business and results of operations
may be materially and adversely affected.

11. We have invested substantial resources in markets and product lines where we expect growth.
Should such expectations not be realised, we may be unable to alter our strategies.

Our growth is dependent on making timely investments to support our product development
initiatives and manufacturing capacity in markets and product lines. Accordingly, we have made
and expect to continue to make substantial investments in manufacturing operations, engineering
centres and other infrastructure to support anticipated growth across markets and product lines.

28
While such investment decisions are based on inherent market potential and internal analysis of
the business opportunity, if these markets or product lines do not grow at the pace that we expect
or at all, or if we are unable to deepen existing and develop additional customer relationships in
these markets and product lines, we may fail to realise expected rates of return on our existing
investments, incur losses on such investments and be unable to effectively redeploy the invested
capital to take advantage of other markets and opportunities, potentially resulting in loss of
market share to our competitors. Our business, results of operations and financial condition may
be materially affected if these markets and product lines do not grow as quickly as we anticipate
or at all.

12. We have undertaken and may continue to undertake strategic investments, joint ventures and
alliances, acquisitions and mergers in the future, which may be difficult to integrate and
manage.

We have pursued and continue to pursue acquisitions, mergers and strategic investments and
alliances as a mode of expanding our operations. For example, our Board at its meeting held on
February 14, 2019, approved a scheme of amalgamation of Harita Limited, Harita Venue Private
Limited, Harita Cheema Private Limited, Harita Financial Services Limited and Harita Seating
Systems Limited with our Company (the “Scheme”), under Section 232 read with other
applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, and Section 2(1B) of the Income-tax Act,
1961. Upon this Scheme becoming effective the authorised share capital of our Company will
automatically stand increased by an additional share capital. The Scheme has been filed before the
NCLT for approval and the same is currently pending. There can be no assurance that the
integration of such strategic investments, joint ventures and alliances, acquisitions and mergers,
whether already existing, or which we may enter in the future, will be successful or that the
expected strategic benefits of any such action will be realised.

In consideration of the proposed scheme, the Company shall issue and allot either new equity
shares or non-convertible redeemable preference shares to such eligible member, the shareholders
of the Transferor Companies who have opted for the non-convertible redeemable preference
shares pursuant to the Scheme, may no later than three months from the date of allotment can
approach the Company for an early redemption of non-convertible redeemable preference shares.
Further, new equity shares issued under this Scheme shall be listed on a recognized stock
exchanges, however, the non-convertible redeemable preference shares shall not be listed on any
of the stock exchanges. For details, please see section titled “History and corporate structure” on
page 94.

We may continue to pursue further acquisitions, mergers, joint ventures, investments,


amalgamations and expansions to enhance our operations and technological capabilities.
However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to identify suitable acquisition targets or
investment opportunities on commercially reasonable terms or be able to raise sufficient funds to
finance such strategies for growth. Further expansion and acquisitions may require us to incur or
assume new debt, expose us to future funding obligations or integration risks and we cannot
assure you that such expansion or acquisitions will contribute to our profitability. In addition,
acquisitions and investments involve a number of risks, including possible adverse effects on our
operating results, diversion of management’s attention, failure to retain key personnel, currency
risks, risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities, possible contravention of applicable
laws in relation to investment and transfer of shareholding, including any pre-emptive rights of
existing shareholders of such entities and difficulties in the assimilation of the operations,
technologies, systems, services and products of the acquired businesses or investments, as well as
other economic, political and regulatory risks. Additionally, there can be no assurance that we will
be able to consummate our expansions, acquisitions, mergers or strategic alliances in the future on
terms acceptable to us, or at all. Further there is no assurance that our products manufactured
through technical collaborations and alliances will generate the expected levels of interest

29
amongst our customers or that our new ventures will generate return on investment at expected
levels or at all.

13. We are required to obtain and maintain quality and product certifications and any inability to
do so may have an adverse on our business and results of operations.

In some countries, for certain products we may be required to procure certifications in addition to
other quality standards which could be necessary for these products to be accepted by customers
and the markets. Such certifications could also be specified by our customers. As such, we need to
be able to obtain and maintain the relevant certifications so that our customers are able to sell their
products, which include components that are manufactured by us, in these countries. In addition,
some OEM customers also require us to maintain certain standards and conduct inspections at
regular intervals to ensure that we maintain these standards.

Further, we are required to and wherever applicable are, in the process of obtaining, renewing or
rectifying certain registrations, permits, licenses, certificates, authorisations and consents for
certain of our operations, which either have not been obtained, have expired or are expiring. Our
inability to secure such license, or any other licenses, certification, registrations and permits in
other jurisdictions in a timely manner or at all, could result in operational delays or suspensions
and/or administrative fines and penalties, which could have a material adverse effect on the
manufacturing operations of our relevant facilities in those jurisdictions, as well as our overall
business, results of operations and financial condition.

14. Our inability to identify and adapt to evolving industry trends and preferences and develop new
products to meet our customers’ demands may adversely affect our business.

Changes in competitive technologies may render certain of our products obsolete, cost inefficient
or less attractive, and to compete effectively we must be able to develop and produce new
products or enhanced versions of existing products to meet our customers’ demands in a timely
manner. Our ability to anticipate changes in technology and regulatory standards and to
successfully develop and introduce new and enhanced products on a timely basis is a significant
factor in our ability to remain competitive. However, there can be no assurance that we will be
able to secure the necessary technological knowledge or capabilities which will allow us to
expand our product portfolio in a timely manner or at all, in which circumstances, we may be
unable to effectively implement our strategy, and our business and results of operations may be
adversely affected. Additionally, we may not be able to secure adequate financing for the capital
expenditures required for the research and development of new technologies and products. If we
are unable to secure adequate financing, or financing in time on commercially acceptable terms,
or at all, we may be forced to curtail our product development programs, and our business,
financial conditions and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. We are
also subject to the risks generally associated with new product introductions and applications,
including lack of market acceptance, delays in product development and failure of products to
operate properly.

15. Product recalls by OEMs could negatively affect their production levels and therefore have a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In the past, there have been significant product recalls by some of the world’s largest OEMs,
including our existing customers. Recalls may result in decreased production levels due to: (i) an
OEM focusing its efforts on addressing the problems underlying the recall, as opposed to
generating new sales volume; and (ii) consumers electing not to purchase vehicles manufactured
by the OEM initiating the recall, or by OEMs in general, while such recalls persist. Any
reductions in OEM production volumes, especially those OEMs which are our existing customers,
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

30
If any of our products are or are alleged to be defective, we may be required to undertake
corrective steps such as providing replacements at our costs, participate in service actions and
wherever applicable also be involved in recall campaigns involving such products. Any negative
publicity arising from our role in these, could adversely affect our reputation and brand and
coupled with the costs associated with the remedial action, could have a material adverse effect on
our business, results of operations and financial condition.

16. Our operations are subject to various hazards, environmental and health and safety laws and
regulations, and other government regulations, which could expose us to the risk of liabilities,
loss of revenues and increased expenses or material liabilities in the future, that may in turn
result in an adverse effect on our financial condition or result in material liabilities in the
future.

Our operations are subject to various hazards associated with the manufacturing industry such as
the use, handling, processing, storage and transportation of hazardous materials, as well as
accidents such as leakage or spillage of hazardous materials. The storage of these hazardous
materials near our manufacturing facilities and the handling of these materials in the
manufacturing process pose inherent risks. Any mishandling of hazardous substances could
expose our work force to injuries or death. In addition, our workmen operate heavy machinery at
our manufacturing facilities and accidents may occur during operations.

While the company adopts high safety standards, these hazards can cause personal injury and loss
of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment, environmental damage and
may result in the suspension of operations and the imposition of civil and criminal liabilities.
While we maintain general insurance against these liabilities, insurance proceeds may not be
adequate to fully cover the substantial liabilities, lost revenues or increased expenses that we
might incur.

Any failure to effectively cover ourselves against any of the foregoing risks could expose us to
substantial costs and potentially lead to losses. Additionally, the occurrence of any of these risks
may also divert management's attention and resources and adversely affect public perception
about our operations and the perception of our suppliers, customers and employees, leading to an
adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition in the short term.

We are subject to numerous central, state, local and foreign laws and regulations, of the countries
in which we operate relating to the protection of the environment and occupational health and
safety, including those governing the generation, handling, storage, use, management,
transportation and disposal of, or exposure to, environmental pollutants or hazardous materials
resulting from our manufacturing processes. Under certain environmental laws, we could be held
solely or jointly and severally responsible, regardless of fault, for the remediation of any
hazardous substance contamination at our past and present facilities or any consequences arising
out of human exposure to such hazardous substances, and could also be held liable for damages to
natural resources or other environmental damage. For instance, we require approvals under the
Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 and the Air (Prevention and Control of
Pollution) Act, 1981, in order to establish and operate our manufacturing facilities in India.
Further, environmental laws of various countries where we have operations, require us to obtain
environment impact approval in relation to our manufacturing facilities and obtain environment
license in accordance their respective environmental norms.

If we fail to comply with such laws and regulations, we could be subject to significant fines,
penalties, costs, liabilities or restrictions on operations, which could negatively affect our
financial condition. Regulatory permits required for our operations may also be subject to periodic
renewal and, in certain circumstances, modification or revocation. Environmental and
occupational health and safety laws and regulations, and the interpretation and enforcement
thereof, are subject to change and have tended to become stricter over time, in India and

31
internationally. We may incur substantial costs, including clean up or remediation costs, fines and
civil or criminal sanctions, and third-party property damage or personal injury claims, as a result
of violations of or liabilities under environmental or health and safety laws or noncompliance with
permits required at our facilities, which, as a result, may have an adverse effect on our business
and financial condition.

17. We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which may impact our results
of operations and cause our quarterly results to fluctuate.

Our Financial Statements are presented in Indian Rupees. However, revenues and operating
expenses of our overseas subsidiaries are influenced by the currencies of those countries where
we manufacture and/or sell our products (for example ASEAN, North America and Europe).

The exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and foreign currencies, has fluctuated in the past and
this has impacted our results of operations in the past and may also impact our business in the
future. For example, during times of strengthening of the Indian Rupee, we expect that our
overseas sales and revenues will generally be negatively impacted as foreign currency received
will be translated into fewer Indian Rupees. However, the converse positive effect of depreciation
in the Indian Rupee may not be sustained or may not show an appreciable impact in our results of
operations in any given financial period, due to other variables impacting our business and results
of operations during the same period. Further, our Company imports raw materials and
components from other countries where payments are made in foreign currencies and we may not
be able to pass on any unfavourable increase in raw materials and components to our customers.
There can be no guarantee that such fluctuations will not affect our financial performance in the
future as we continue to expand our operations globally, particularly in emerging markets where
the risk of currency volatility is higher.

While we seek to hedge our foreign currency exchange risk by entering into forward exchange
contracts, any amounts that we spend or invest in order to hedge the risks to our business due to
fluctuations in currencies may not adequately hedge against any losses that we may incur due to
such fluctuations.

The realisation of any of these risks could have a material adverse impact on our financial
condition and results of operations.

18. Volatility in the prices of raw materials on which we rely could adversely affect our results of
operations and cash flows.

Prices of certain raw materials that we use to manufacture our finished products, including metals
(such as aluminum, copper and lead) and plastics are linked to commodity markets and thus
subject to fluctuation. We cannot assure you that the markets for these products will not develop
volatility in the future. In addition, supply shortages or delays in deliveries of raw materials or
component parts can also result in increased costs. Although we seek to enter into negotiations
with our customers to increase the sale prices of our products to account for increases in such
costs, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in such negotiations or that any agreed
price increase will fully cover the increase in such costs. Our inability to adequately adjust our
customer pricing in response to increases in prices of raw materials in a timely manner, or at all,
could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, cash flows
and financial condition.

19. Increases in the price or inadequate supply of energy and other input materials may adversely
affect our results of operations and cash flows.

Power and fuel accounts for a significant portion of the cost for a number of activities connected
with our business including transportation of raw materials and finished products and operation of

32
our production facilities. Energy prices, particularly for petroleum-based sources, are volatile and
an increase in energy prices could lead to an increase in transportation costs for us and our
suppliers and customers as well as increasing the cost of operating our production facilities.
Where our locations are not close to that of our customers, such increased cost owing to increase
in prices may have an impact on our profitability. While we may in some cases, factor in the cost
for utilities including transportation, and pass on this cost to the consumer, any such increase in
costs could decrease our margins if we are unable to negotiate an increase in our product prices,
sufficient enough to offset these increased costs. Such energy cost increases and margin erosion
could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows. If supply is not available
for any reason, we will need to rely on alternative sources, which may not be able to consistently
meet our requirements. The cost of electricity purchased from alternative sources could be
significantly higher, thereby adversely affecting our cost of production and profitability. Further,
if for any reason sufficient electricity is not available at reasonable cost, we may need to shut
down our plants until an adequate supply of electricity is restored.

20. Deterioration in the performance of any of our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates
may adversely affect our results of operations and our ability to pay dividends on the Equity
Shares depends on our ability to obtain cash dividends or other cash payments.

We currently conduct a substantial part of our operations through our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures
and Associates, who contribute to our revenue. For the Fiscal 2020, 41.91% of revenues were
contributed by Subsidiaries. We have made and may continue to make capital commitments to
our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates, and if the business or operations of any of these
Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates deteriorates, the value of our investments may decline
substantially. In some entities, we enjoy only partial or joint control and any inability or
unwillingness of our partners to fulfil their obligations may significantly reduce the value of our
investments, and, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business,
financial position or results of operations.

The ability of our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures or Associates to make payments to us depends
largely on their financial condition and ability to generate profits as well as regulatory conditions.
In addition, because our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates are separate and distinct legal
entities, they will have no obligation to pay any dividends and may be restricted from doing so by
contract, including other financing arrangements, charter provisions, other shareholders or
partners or the applicable laws and regulations of the various countries in which they operate. We
cannot assure you that our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures or Associates will generate sufficient
profits and cash flows, or otherwise prove willing or able, to pay dividends to enable us to meet
our obligations and pay interest, expenses and wherever approved by our Board to pay dividend
on the Equity Shares. The inability of one or more of these entities to pay dividends could have a
material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, cash flows and financial
condition.

In addition, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected should
our equity stake in our Subsidiaries or our equity interest in our Joint Ventures or Associates be
diluted or in the event they cease to be our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures or Associates. Further, in
the event that the value of our investment in any of our Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures or Associates
diminishes significantly, this could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and
results of operations.

21. The geographical concentration of our manufacturing facilities may restrict our operations
and adversely affect our business and financial conditions.

We conduct most of our manufacturing operations in various facilities in India, ASEAN and
North America and Europe. Due to the geographic concentration of our manufacturing operations
and the operations of certain of our suppliers, our operations are susceptible to local and regional

33
factors, agitations, accidents, system failures, economic and weather conditions, natural disasters,
and demographic and population changes, and other unforeseen events and circumstances. Such
disruptions could result in the damage or destruction of a significant portion of our manufacturing
facilities, significant delays in shipments of our products and/or otherwise materially adversely
affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

22. We do not own all the premises from which we operate and continuous and uninterrupted use
and possession of such premises are subject to certain conditions as per the lease agreements.

We do not own all the premises from which we operate and such premises also include leased
properties. While such lease agreements are renewable as per the terms of the lease agreements. If
the owner of such premises does not renew the relevant agreements under which we occupy the
premises or renews such agreements on terms and conditions that are unfavourable to the
Company or terminates the lease agreements, we may suffer a disruption in our business
operations or an impact on our financial condition, which could in turn have a material adverse
effect on the business and financial performance of the Company.

23. We may be unable to obtain, renew or maintain statutory and regulatory permits, licenses and
approvals required to operate our business and operate our manufacturing facilities, which
could result in an adverse effect on our results of operations.

We require certain statutory and regulatory permits, licenses and approvals to operate our
business such as consents to establish and operate from the state pollution control boards where
our manufacturing facilities are located, registration and licenses issued under the Factories Act
for our various manufacturing facilities, fire safety licenses from municipal fire safety authorities,
registration certificates issued under various labour laws, including contract labour registration
certificates and licenses as well as various taxation related registrations, such as importer exporter
code, registrations for payment of excise duties, goods and services taxes, professional taxes and
service taxes.. We cannot assure you that we will be able to timely apply for, whether fresh or
renewal, all approvals, consents, permits, registrations and clearances required for undertaking our
business from time to time. For instance, as on the date of this Letter of Offer, there are certain
pending registrations to be made by our Company under the Factories Act 1948 applicable to the
states in which we operate, few fire no objection certification required under the relevant state’s
fire services acts, few design application pending before the Controller General of Patents,
Designs and Trademarks. There can be no assurance that the relevant authorities will issue such
approvals in the time-frame anticipated by us or at all. Additionally, our licenses, permits and
approvals impose certain terms and conditions that require us to incur significant costs and inter
alia, restrict certain activities. There can be no assurances that all approvals, licenses, permits and
registrations are in place or may not be revoked in the event of any non-compliance with any
terms or conditions imposed thereof.

In the future, we will be required to regularly renew permits, licenses and approvals for our
business, and to obtain new permits, licenses and approvals for any proposed expansion. While
we will endeavour to renew, or obtain such approvals as required, there can be no assurance that
the relevant authorities will issue any such approvals within our anticipated timeframe or at all.

Further, there can be no assurances that the legal framework, licensing and other regulatory
requirements or enforcement trends in our industry will not further change in a manner that does
not result in increased costs of compliance, or that we will be successful in responding to such
changes. Moreover, as we grow our business, the requirements for obtaining new licenses,
approvals and authorisations will also increase. If we lose or otherwise are unable to maintain any
of our required licenses, registrations, permits and approvals under applicable laws and
regulations, our business operations may be materially and adversely affected and we may be
required to incur additional expenditure in this regard.

34
24. Our Audited Financial Statements have not yet been placed before our Shareholders in a
general meeting.

Pursuant to a resolution dated June 29, 2020, our Board approved the Audited Financial
Statements for the quarter / year ended March 31, 2020. In terms of Section 134(3) of the
Companies Act, 2013, as amended, read with Rule 8 of Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, as
amended, a board report on the reporting period which shall be placed before our Shareholders in
a general meeting. Our Company, in due course will hold its annual general meeting for the year
ended March 31, 2020 and place our Audited Financial Statements for the Fiscal ended March 31,
2020, before our Shareholders. Such financial statements, which include the consolidated audited
Financial Statements included in this Letter of Offer, shall remain subject to adoption, remarks
and observations of our Shareholders, if any.

25. Our contingent liabilities could adversely affect our financial condition if they materialize.

As per our Consolidated Financial Statements, as at March 31, 2020, we had contingent liabilities
not provided for as per Ind AS 37 amounting to ₹ 23.32 crores (to the extent quantifiable). For
details in relation to our contingent liabilities not provided for as per Ind AS 37, please see section
titled “Summary of Letter of Offer – Contingent Liabilities” on page 19 and “Financial
Statements” on page 101. If, for any reason, these contingent liabilities materialize, it could
adversely affect our cash flows, financial condition and results of operations. In the event that any
of these contingent liabilities materialise, our financial condition may be adversely affected.
Further, in the event there is a change in any statutory/ regulatory requirement with respect to
contingent liabilities, our Company may be required to make additional provisions to meet the
revised criteria which may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and profitability.

26. We are a manufacturing company, and any shutdown of operations at any of our
manufacturing facilities could result in significant costs and may have an adverse effect on our
operations and financial condition.

Our manufacturing facilities and R&D and design centres are subject to operating risks, such as
(i) the risk of substantial disruption or shutdown due to breakdowns or failure of equipment,
natural disasters, storms, fires, explosions, earthquakes, floods and other catastrophic events,
actual, potential or suspected epidemic outbreaks, terrorist attacks and wars, labour disputes,
strikes, lock-outs, loss of services of our external contractors, and industrial accidents, (ii)
performance below expected levels of output or efficiency, and (iii) obsolescence. Moreover,
catastrophic events could also destroy any inventory located at our facilities. For instance, during
COVID-19, we were required to shutdown certain of our manufacturing facilities, offices and
design centres across geographies for varying periods of time. Additionally, we were required to
follow protocols as suggested by regulatory authorities which impacted our ability to operate our
manufacturing facilities, offices and design centres at optimum utilizations. The occurrence of any
such event could result in a temporary or long-term closure of any of our manufacturing facilities.
If we are required to close any of our facilities, the costs relating to such closure may be
significant. In certain locations where our facilities are subject to leases, we may continue to incur
significant costs in accordance with the existing lease terms.

Additionally, the assembly lines of some of our OEM customers rely significantly on the timely
delivery of our components and our ability to provide an uninterrupted supply of our products is
critical to our business and sustained relationships with our OEM customers. Also, under our
supply obligations certain of our customers impose significant penalties on component
manufacturers, like us, for any stoppage in any assembly line, caused either by delayed delivery
of a component or a defect in the components delivered. Our business and financial results may be
adversely affected by any disruption of operations of our product lines, and we cannot assure you

35
that we will not be required to close any of our manufacturing facilities in the future, including as
a result of any of the factors mentioned above.

27. We depend on our senior management, executive officers, key employees and skilled personnel,
and if we are unable to recruit and retain skilled management personnel, our business and our
ability to operate or grow our business could be adversely affected.

Our success depends to a large extent upon the continued services of senior management,
executive officers, key employees and other skilled personnel. We could be adversely affected by
the loss of any of the members of senior management, executive officers and other key
employees. The market for such qualified professionals is competitive and we may not continue
to be successful in our efforts to attract and retain qualified people. In some of our markets, the
specialized skills we require are difficult and time-consuming to acquire and, as a result, are in
short supply. We require a long period of time to hire and train replacement personnel when we
lose skilled employees. As part of measures to mitigate the slowdown on account of COVID-19
and to conserve liquidity, we have re-negotiated compensation for some of our employees and if
the situation persists may be required to evaluate further measures to control our fixed costs. Our
inability to hire, train and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees could delay our
ability to bring new products or services to the market and impair the success of our operations.
This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Our success also depends, in part, on key customer relationships forged by our senior
management. If we were to lose these members of senior management we cannot assure you that
we will be able to continue to maintain key customer relationships or renew them. If we are
unable to retain and/or suitably replace the members of our senior management, our business,
financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

28. The workforce in the automotive industry is highly unionised and our business could be
adversely affected by labour disruptions.

Some of our employees are covered under collective bargaining agreements and/or tariff
agreements, or are members of industrial trade union organisations. If major work disruptions
involving our employees were to occur, our business could be adversely affected by a variety of
factors, including sales loss, increased costs and reduced profitability. We cannot ensure that we
will not experience a material labour disruption at one or more of our facilities in the future in the
course of renegotiation of our labour arrangements or otherwise. In addition, employees of OEM
customers and many of their suppliers may also be covered by collective bargaining/labour
agreements. A work stoppage or strike at our production facilities, at those of a significant
customer or at a significant supplier of ours, could have a material adverse impact on us by
disrupting demand for our products or our ability to manufacture our products.

Additionally, we enter into contracts with independent contractors to complete specified


assignments in our facilities and these contractors are required to source the labour necessary to
complete such assignments. Any shortage of such contract labour or any work stoppages caused
by disagreements with independent contractors could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations. Although we do not engage these labourers
directly, we may be held responsible for any wage payments to be made to such labourers in the
event of default by such independent contractors. Any requirement to fund their wage
requirements may have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

29. We rely upon the success of our dealers and retailers network for our replacement market
sales.

36
Certain portion of our net sales comprise of replacement or aftermarket sales for which we rely on
our dealers and retailer network. Not all our dealers and retailers are contractually required to sell
our products on an exclusive basis. In addition, no assurance can be given that our current dealers
and retailers will continue to do business with us or that we can continue to attract new dealers
and retailers to our network. Our business to an extent is dependent on our ability to attract and
retain third-party dealers and retailers and such parties’ ability to promote sell and market our
products effectively. Maintaining good relations with the dealers and retailers is vital to our
business. During COVID-19 a large part of our dealer and retailer network was required to be
under shutdown or operate under strict regulatory conditions which may have had a significantly
deleterious impact on the financial health of our dealers and retailers. Our inability to maintain
stability of our dealers and retailer network, expand our dealers and retailers network in the future
could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Further, we may
be required to offer certain relaxations in payment terms to our dealer and retail network to help
them overcome COVID-19 related disruptions. In case, our dealers and retailers choose to delay
payments we may be exposed to higher working capital requirements and higher risk of doubtful
debts which will have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

30. Any inability to manage our growing international business may materially and adversely
affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our growth strategy relies on the expansion of our operations by introducing certain automotive
products in markets outside India, including the North America, Europe and ASEAN. The costs
associated with entering and establishing ourselves in new markets, and expanding such
operations, may be higher than expected, and we may face significant competition in those
regions. In addition, our international business is subject to many actual and potential risks and
challenges, including language barriers, cultural differences and other difficulties in staffing and
managing overseas operations, inherent difficulties and delays in contract enforcement and the
collection of receivables under the legal systems of some foreign countries, the risk of non-tariff
barriers, other restrictions on foreign trade or investment sanctions, and the burdens of complying
with a wide variety of foreign laws, rules and regulations. As part of our global activities, we may
engage with third-party dealers and distributors whom we do not control but which nevertheless
take actions that could have a material adverse impact on our reputation and business. In addition,
we cannot assure you that we will not be held responsible for any activities undertaken by such
dealers and distributors. If we are unable to manage risks related to our expansion and growth in
other parts of the world, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be
materially affected. Due to the current Covid 19 pandemic, our business operations in the
international markets is adversely impacted. Production has been significantly reduced across
facilities in Spain, Mexico, Vietnam and Indonesia; due to government-imposed lockdown and
restrictions. Our design and engineering centers in Germany, Spain and Japan have partially
resumed operations wherein part of employees continue to work from home, to ensure minimum
contact and social distancing. However, there is no clarity on how long and how severely the
business operations will continue to be impacted.

31. Restrictive covenants in our financing agreements may limit our operations and financial
flexibility and materially and adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations
and prospects.

We have substantial debt obligations. As of March 31, 2020, we had total consolidated
borrowings of ₹ 1,176.02 crores (including current maturities), of which ₹ 877.76 crores was
secured long term loans from banks, and ₹ 84.46 crores was secured short term loans from banks.
Our debt obligations have changed since March 31, 2020 in line with the business requirements of
our Company and our Company will continue to disclose our debt obligations in line with the
requirements under various SEBI regulations. Further, as a result of the complete shut-down of
our operations due to the COVID-2019 pandemic, we may be required to borrow additional sums
to meet our capital and operational requirements. Further, due to the COVID-2019 pandemic, we

37
cannot assure you that we will continue to be in compliance with all covenants in our loan
agreements.

Some of our financing agreements and debt arrangements set limits on or require us to obtain
lender consent before, among other things, pledging assets as security, raising additional sources
of capital and from effecting changes in control of our Company. There can be no assurance that
we will be able to obtain such consents in the future. If our liquidity needs, or growth plans,
require such consents and such consents are not obtained, we may be forced to forego or alter our
plans, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of
operations. In addition, certain financial covenants may limit our ability to borrow additional
funds or to incur additional liens. In the event, we breach financing agreements, the outstanding
amounts due thereunder could become due and payable immediately or result in increased costs.
A default under one of these agreements may also result in cross-defaults under other financing
agreements and result in the outstanding amounts under such other financing agreements
becoming due and payable immediately. This could have a material adverse effect on our
financial condition and results of operations. We may also be required to provide corporate
guarantees in relation to loans obtained by our Subsidiaries from time to time any default by such
Subsidiaries may result in invocation of the corporate guarantee. For instance, we have provided a
corporate guarantee in relation to a borrowing availed by one of our Subsidiaries, MINDA
Germany GmbH. Any default by such Subsidiaries in meeting their obligations under their
respecting borrowings may result in the invocation of the corporate guarantee against us. Such an
event may adversely affect our financial condition and cash flows.

Further, some of our borrowing agreements also require us to obtain prior written consent for
certain acts such as amendments to constitutional documents or to create any additional security.
Violation of any of these covenants may amount to events of default, which may result in breach
of contract causing claims to be brought against us or termination of the agreements as well as
prepayment obligations. Where instances of breaches arise, our lenders may invoke rights under
the borrowing arrangements. In addition, future non-compliance with the financial covenants of
our financing agreements may lead to increased costs for any future financings.

32. Some borrowings availed by our Company can be recalled by the lenders at any time.

Our Company has, in the ordinary course of business and for operational needs, borrowed from
time to time, the outstanding balance of which as on March 31, 2020 was ₹ 1,176.02
crores(including current maturities), of which ₹ 187.07 crores was unsecured borrowings. Some
of these borrowings are repayable on demand. In case such borrowings are recalled by the lenders,
we may be required to repay in entirety such borrowings together with accrued interest and other
outstanding amounts. We may not be able to generate sufficient funds at short notice to be able to
repay such borrowings and may need to resort to refinance such borrowing at a higher rate of
interest and on terms not favourable to us. Any failure to repay unsecured borrowings in a timely
manner or refinancing of the same at a higher interest rate may adversely affect our business, cash
flows and financial condition.

33. Any downgrade in our credit ratings could increase our borrowing costs, affect our ability to
obtain financing, and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and
financial condition.

The cost and availability of capital depends in part on our credit ratings. Credit ratings reflect the
opinions of ratings agencies on our financial strength, operating performance, strategic position
and ability to meet our obligations. Any downgrade in our credit ratings could increase borrowing
costs and adversely affect our access to capital and debt markets, which could in turn adversely
affect our interest margins, our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
In addition, certain of our financing arrangements provide that if any downgrade in our credit
ratings below certain thresholds at any time during the currency of borrowings availed by us, the

38
lenders have a right call upon our Company to mandatorily prepay the loan. Further, any
downgrade in our credit ratings may increase the effective yield and consequently the redemption
amount may be reset and stepped up under certain of our financing arrangements. It could also
increase the probability that our lenders impose additional terms and conditions to any financing
or refinancing arrangements we enter into in the future and adversely affect our business, results
of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

34. Our Company proposes to utilize a portion of the Net Proceeds to repay/prepay certain
borrowings availed by our Company.

Our Company intends to use a certain portion of the Net Proceeds for the repayment/prepayment
of certain borrowings of our Company, including certain commercial papers. The details of the
borrowings identified to be repaid using the Net Proceeds have been disclosed in “Objects of the
Issue” on page 82. Further, our Company may refinance/ roll over some or all of such identified
borrowings in the ordinary course of business depending on the requirements of our Company and
accordingly, our Company may utilise the Net Proceeds for repayment of such refinanced/rolled
over borrowings or fresh borrowings obtained by our Company which are in the nature of short-
term borrowings and will make the payment vis-à-vis commercial paper.

However, the repayment of the identified borrowings are subject to various factors including,
commercial considerations, market conditions, cost of borrowings and conditions attached to such
borrowings.

While we believe that utilization of Net Proceeds for repayment of borrowings would help us to
reduce our cost of debt and enable the utilization of our funds for further investment in business
growth and expansion, the repayment of loans will not result in the creation of any tangible assets
for our Company.

35. A portion of the Net Proceeds may be utilized for repayment or pre-payment of loans taken
from Axis Bank Limited, which is an affiliate of the Lead Manager.

We propose to repay certain loans obtained from Axis Bank Limited, from the Net Proceeds as
disclosed in “Objects of the Issue” on page 82. Axis Bank Limited is an affiliate of the Lead
Managers (i.e. Axis Capital Limited) and is not an associate of the Company in terms of the
Securities and Exchange Board of India (Merchant Bankers) Regulations, 1992. Loans and
facilities sanctioned to our Company by Axis Bank Limited is a part of its normal commercial
lending activity and we do not believe that there is any conflict of interest under the SEBI
(Merchant Bankers) Regulations, 1992, as amended, or any other applicable SEBI rules or
regulations. For details, please see section titled “Objects of the Issue” on page 82.

36. We are subject to counterparty credit risk and any delay in receiving payments or non-receipt
of payments may adversely impact our results of operations.

There is no guarantee that we will accurately assess the creditworthiness of our customers. If there
is deterioration in our customers’ financial condition, including insufficient liquidity, they may be
unable to pay their dues to us on time, or at all. Macroeconomic conditions, such as a potential
credit crisis in the global financial system, could also result in financial difficulties for our
customers, including limited access to the credit markets, insolvency or bankruptcy. Such
conditions could cause our customers to delay payment, request modifications of their payment
terms, or default on their payment obligations to us, all of which could increase our receivables.
COVID-19 outbreak has had an adverse impact on the financial condition of most of our
customers and while we believe that they have sufficient liquidity to discharge their obligations,
we cannot assure you that we will be able to recover our payments in time or at all. Any failure or
delay in payment could also lead us to further extend our payment terms, restructure our accounts

39
receivable or create allowances for doubtful debts. Sometimes we commit resources prior to
receiving advances and any delays in customer payments may require us to make a working
capital investment and may also delay honouring of our payment obligations to our suppliers and
vendors. If we are unable to meet our contractual obligations, we might experience delays in the
collection of, or be unable to collect, our customer balances, and if this occurs, our results of
operations and cash flows could be adversely affected. In addition, if we experience delays in
billing and collection for our services, our cash flows could be adversely affected.

37. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend upon future earnings, financial condition,
cash flows and working capital requirements.

Our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders will depend upon our future earnings, financial
condition, cash flows, planned capital expenditures and working capital requirements. We may be
unable to pay dividends in the near or medium-term particularly as we conserve cash to cope with
the disruption in our business operations due to the COVID-2019 pandemic, and our ability to
distribute dividends in the future will depend on our capital requirements and financing
arrangements in respect of our business, financial condition and results of operations.

38. We do not own the logo and trademark ‘UNO Minda’, and the trademark over “Minda”
that we use for our business and are permitted to use them pursuant to a trademark license
agreement. Any discontinuation of the usage of this logo and trademark could adversely affect
our business, financial condition and the results of our operations.

Our Company does not own any intellectual property in relation to the ‘UNO MINDA’

logo and the trademark. The logo, and the name “UNO Minda” that we use for our
business is not owned by us. The copyright and trademark of “UNO Minda” (the “IPR”) is
registered in the name of Minda Mindpro Limited who has allowed us to use such logo and IPR
on non-exclusive basis for a specified term. There can be no assurance that Minda Mindpro
Limited will continue to allow us to use the copyrighted logo and trademark which we are
currently using. We are also exposed to the risk that other entities may pass off their products with
this logo and trademark, by imitating our brand name, packaging material and attempting to create
counterfeit products. Our inability to be able to use the copyrighted logo and trademark in the
future, may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and the results of our
operations.

Further, we do not own the trademark in relation to “Minda”. The trademark over “Minda” is
owned by Minda Spectrum Advisory Limited (“MSAL”). MSAL has entered into a licensing
agreement with our Company, whereby MSAL has allowed our Company to use trademark over
“Minda” on a non-exclusive basis and for a specified term. We are also exposed to the risk that
other entities may pass off their products with “Minda” and its trademark, by imitating our brand
name, packaging material and attempting to create counterfeit products. Our inability to be able to
use the trademark in the future, may materially and adversely affect our business, financial
condition and the results of our operations

39. If we fail to keep our technical knowledge and process know-how confidential, we may suffer a
loss of our competitive advantage.

We possess extensive technical knowledge about our products and such technical knowledge has
been developed through our own experiences and through licensing agreements and technical
assistance agreements, which grant us access to new technologies. Our technical knowledge is an
independent asset, which may not be adequately protected by intellectual property rights such as
patent registration. Some of our technical knowledge is protected only by secrecy. As a result, we
cannot be certain that our technical knowledge will remain confidential in the long run.

40
Certain proprietary knowledge may be leaked, either inadvertently or wilfully, at various stages of
the manufacturing process. A significant number of our employees have access to confidential
design and product information and there can be no assurance that this information will remain
confidential. Moreover, certain of our employees may leave us and join our competitors.
Although, our employees in the research and development department are bound by non-
disclosure undertaking, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to successfully enforce such
agreements. We also enter into non-disclosure agreements with some of our customers and
suppliers but we cannot assure you that such agreements will be successful in protecting our
technical knowledge. The potential damage from such disclosure is increased as many of our
designs and products are not patented, and thus we may have no recourse against copies of our
products and designs that enter the market subsequent to such leakages. In the event that the
confidential technical information in respect of our products or business becomes available to
third parties or to the general public, any competitive advantage we may have over other
companies in the electronics manufacturing sector could be harmed. If a competitor is able to
reproduce or otherwise capitalise on our technology, it may be difficult, expensive or impossible
for us to obtain necessary legal protection. Consequently, any leakage of confidential technical
information could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial
condition and future prospects.

40. We face risks relating to the availability of tax deductions.

We are subject to income, withholding, value-added and other sales-based, real property and local
taxes and other taxes and duties in various jurisdictions. Our provision for taxes is based on our
judgment (acting reasonably and after considering the relevant information available to us) of tax
risk in such jurisdictions which may be challenged by relevant tax authorities. The tax position
taken with respect to certain transactions and calculations may be challenged by tax authorities for
reasons, including transfer pricing, the availability of deductions for interest expense and other
deductible items, the treatment of acquisition, refinancing and reorganization transactions,
intercompany funding arrangements, the application and effect of tax ‘holidays’ and the
calculation of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Although we believe our tax estimates and
provisions are reasonable, there can be no assurance that the final determination of any tax audits
or litigation will not be materially different from that which is reflected in historical income tax
provisions and accruals. We are subject to tax audits and tax reviews, which, by their nature, are
often complex, and can require several years to conclude. The total accrual for income tax in any
year is based on the judgment of our management, interpretation of country-specific tax law and
the likelihood of crystallization and settlement of any particular tax liability. Amounts provided
for in any year could be less than actual tax liabilities, and adjustments may be required in
subsequent years that may materially and adversely affect our income statement and/or cash tax
payments, and may result in the payment of interest and/or penalties.

41. Changes in legislation or policies related to tax applicable to us could adversely affect our
results of operations.

We are subject to complex tax laws in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Changes in
tax laws could adversely affect our tax position, including our effective tax rate or tax payments.
In addition, tax laws in certain jurisdictions can be complex and are subject to varying
interpretations. We often rely on generally available interpretations of tax laws and regulations in
the jurisdictions in which we operate. We cannot be certain that the relevant tax authorities are in
agreement with our interpretation of these laws. If our tax positions are challenged by relevant tax
authorities, the imposition of additional taxes could require us to pay taxes that we currently do
not collect or pay or increase the costs of our products or services to track and collect such taxes,
which could increase our costs of operations and have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.

41
In addition, particularly in emerging markets, tax laws may be interpreted inconsistently. The
application and interpretation of laws by governmental authorities may therefore be uncertain and
difficult to predict. The position we take on taxation-related matters is subject to possible review
and investigation by tax authorities. If governmental authorities were to successfully challenge the
tax positions we take, substantial fines, penalties and interest charges may be imposed on us. This
could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Certain territories in which we operate also have transfer pricing regulations that require
transactions involving associated companies to be effected on arm’s length terms. It is our policy,
therefore, that any pricing of arrangements between members of our Company, such as the intra-
group provision of services, is carried out on an arm’s length basis and in accordance with all
applicable regulations. However, if the tax authorities in the relevant jurisdictions do not regard
these arrangements as being made at arm’s length and successfully challenge those arrangements,
the amount of tax payable, in both current and previous years, by the relevant member of our
Company may increase materially, and penalties or interest may also be payable. There may also
be changes in transfer pricing regulations or policies, and our failure to promptly comply with
such changes could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.

42. Our Statutory Auditors have included a matter of emphasis in the audit report of the Audited
Consolidated Financial Statements. We cannot assure you that such matter of emphasis will
not arise in the future.

Our Statutory Auditors have included a matter of emphasis which describes uncertainties, our
Group is facing as a result of COVID-19 which is impacting business operations. While the
opinion of the auditor is not modified in respect of this matter, there can be no assurance that any
similar matters of emphasis, or any qualification or reservations will not form part of the
consolidated financial statements of our Company for the future periods. For details, please see
section titled “Financial Statements” on page 101.

43. Employee misconduct could harm us and is difficult to detect and deter.

Although we have put measures in place dedicated to monitoring fraud, data theft or other
misconduct of employees, we run the risk that such employee misconduct could occur.
Misconduct by employees or executives could include binding us to transactions that exceed
authorised limits or present unacceptable risks or hiding unauthorised or unlawful activities from
us, which may result in substantial financial losses and damage to our reputation and loss of
business from our customers. Employee or executive misconduct could also involve the improper
use or disclosure of confidential information, which could result in regulatory sanctions and
serious reputational or financial harm, including harm to our brand. It is not always possible to
deter employee or executive misconduct and the precautions taken and systems put in place to
prevent and detect such activities may not be effective in all cases. Any instances of such
misconduct could adversely affect our reputation.

44. Our Company is involved in certain legal and other proceedings. Any adverse outcome in such
proceedings may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

We are involved, from time to time, in legal proceedings that are incidental to our operations and
involve suits filed by and against our Company by various parties. These include, inter alia,
criminal proceedings, recovery proceedings, civil proceedings, and tax proceedings. These
proceedings are pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts, tribunals and
appellate tribunals. A degree of judgment is required to assess our exposure in these proceedings
and determine the appropriate level of provisions, if any.

42
We may be required to devote management and financial resources in the defence or prosecution
of such legal proceedings. If a number of these disputes are determined against us and if we are
required to pay all or a portion of the disputed amounts or if we are unable to recover amounts for
which we have filed recovery proceedings, there could be a material and adverse impact on our
reputation, business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no
assurance on the outcome of the legal proceedings or that the provisions we make will be
adequate to cover all losses we may incur in such proceedings, or that our actual liability will be
as reflected in any provision that we have made in connection with any such legal proceedings.
For details, please see section titled “Outstanding Litigation and Defaults” on page 201.

45. Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to protect us against all potential losses to which
we may be subject, and this may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

While we believe that the insurance coverage that we maintain is reasonably adequate to cover all
normal risks associated with the operation of our business, there can be no assurance that our
insurance coverage will be sufficient, that any claim under our insurance policies will be
honoured fully or timely, that insurance companies will not object to our actions or omissions in
complying with the terms of insurance policies or that our insurance premiums will not increase
substantially, for instance, the insurance coverage may not be sufficient to meet any losses we
faced due to the shut-down of our factories due to COVID-2019. Accordingly, to the extent that
we suffer loss or damage that is not covered by insurance or which exceeds our insurance
coverage, or are required to pay higher insurance premiums, our business, financial condition and
results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, our insurance coverage expires from time to time. We apply for the renewal of our
insurance coverage in the normal course of our business, but we cannot assure you that such
renewals will be granted in a timely manner, at acceptable cost or at all. To the extent that we
suffer loss or damage for which we did not obtain or maintain insurance, and which is not covered
by insurance, exceeds our insurance coverage or where our insurance claims are rejected, the loss
would have to be borne by us and our results of operations, cash flows and financial performance
could be adversely affected.

46. We have in the past entered into related party transactions and may continue to do so in the
future.

We have entered into certain transactions with related parties. While we believe that all such
transactions have been conducted on an arm’s length basis, there can be no assurance that we
could not have achieved more favourable terms had such transactions not been entered into with
related parties. Furthermore, it is likely that we may enter into related party transactions in the
future. There can be no assurance that such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, will not
have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. For further details on
related party transactions, please see section titled “Financial Information” on page 101.

47. Terms contained in various agreements entered into by our Company may restrict our
operations.

Some of the agreements that we are party to, contain covenants that may be onerous and
commercially restrictive in nature. For example, some of our JV agreements include covenants
that prevent us from accessing certain geographies or entering certain product categories.
Violation of any of these covenants may amount to events of default, which may result in breach
of contract causing claims to be brought against us or termination of the agreements as well as
prepayment obligations.

43
48. If our estimates or assumptions used in developing our strategic plan are inaccurate or we are
unable to execute our strategic plan effectively, our profitability and financial position could be
negatively impacted.

If the estimates or assumptions used in developing our strategic plan vary significantly from
actual conditions, our sales, margins and profitability could be impacted. For instance, sales of our
products may not grow as quickly as we currently expect, and we may be incorrect in our
assumptions and expectations of consumer preferences during our R&D of new products. Also,
the fund requirement and deployment for our strategies are based purely on management
estimates and assumptions considering the current market scenario and are subject to revision in
the light of changes in external circumstances or costs. If we are unsuccessful in executing our
strategic plan, or if the underlying estimates or assumptions used to develop our strategic plan are
materially inaccurate, our business and financial condition would have an adverse impact.

49. Our funding requirements and proposed deployment of the Net Proceeds are based on
management estimates and have not been independently appraised and may be subject to
change based on various factors, some of which are beyond our control.

Our funding requirements and deployment of the Net Proceeds are based on internal management
estimates based on current market conditions, and have not been appraised by any bank or
financial institution or other independent agency. Further, in the absence of such independent
appraisal, our funding requirements may be subject to change based on various factors which are
beyond our control. For details, please see section titled “Objects of the Issue” on page 82.

50. We may be subject to claims of infringement of third-party intellectual property rights, which
could adversely affect our business.

While we take abundant precautions to ensure that we do not infringe the intellectual property
rights of third parties, we cannot determine with certainty whether we are infringing upon any
existing third-party intellectual property rights. Any claims of infringement, regardless of merit or
resolution of such claims, could force us to incur significant costs in responding to, defending and
resolving such claims, and may divert the efforts and attention of our management and technical
personnel away from our business. As a result of such infringement claims, we could be required
to pay third party infringement claims, alter our technologies, change the brands under which we
distribute our products, obtain licenses or cease some portions of our operations. The occurrence
of any of the foregoing could result in unexpected expenses. In addition, if we alter our
technologies, change the brands under which we distribute our products or cease manufacturing of
affected items, our revenue could be adversely affected.

51. Our Company is currently part of certain schemes of amalgamation which if approved may
lead to dilution of existing shareholders and/ or significant increase in debt obligations of our
Company.

Our Board at its meeting held on February 14, 2019, approved a scheme of amalgamation of
Harita Limited, Harita Venue Private Limited, Harita Cheema Private Limited, Harita Financial
Services Limited and Harita Seating Systems Limited with our Company (the “Scheme”), under
Section 232 read with other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, and Section 2(1B)
of the Income-tax Act, 1961. Upon this Scheme becoming effective the authorised share capital of
our Company will automatically stand increased by an additional share capital. The Scheme has
been filed before the NCLT for approval and the same is currently pending.

As part of the Scheme, as consideration for their shareholding in the transferor companies, the
shareholders of such companies, at their sole discretion, will be entitled to either (i) shares of our
Company as per the swap ratios agreed as part of the Scheme, or (ii) non-convertible redeemable
preference shares issued by our Company as per the terms agreed upon in the Scheme. If

44
approved by NCLT, any issuance of shares by our Company under this Scheme will lead to
dilution in shareholding of existing shareholders of our Company. Further, if shareholders of
transferor companies choose to subscribe to non-convertible redeemable preference shares issued
by our Company, it will lead to increase in indebtedness of our Company.

We cannot assure you that the proposed schemes will be successful or that the expected strategic
benefits of any such action will be realized. Further, negotiation and consummation of such
scheme of arrangements require significant time from our senior management and if for any
reason the Scheme is not approved, the resources spent on the Scheme may have a significant
impact on business and results from operations. For further details, please see section titled
“History and Corporate Structure”.

52. Any delay in the implementation or failure in the operation of our information systems could
disrupt our operations and cause an unanticipated increase in costs.

We have implemented various information technology (“IT”) solutions to cover key areas of our
operations and these IT solutions are an integral part of our manufacturing processes. Any delay
in the implementation or failure in the operation of these information systems could result in
material adverse consequences, including disruption of operations, loss of information and an
unanticipated increase in costs.

Further, these systems are potentially vulnerable to damage or interruption from a variety of
sources, which could result in a material adverse effect on our operations. A large-scale IT
malfunction could disrupt our business or lead to disclosure of sensitive company information.
Our ability to keep our business operating depends on the proper and efficient operation and
functioning of various IT systems, which are susceptible to malfunctions and interruptions
(including those due to equipment damage, power outages, computer viruses and a range of other
hardware, software and network problems). A significant or large-scale malfunction or
interruption of one or more of our IT systems could adversely affect our ability to keep our
operations running efficiently and affect product availability, particularly in the country, region or
functional area in which the malfunction occurs, and wider or sustained disruption to our business
cannot be excluded. In addition, it is possible that a malfunction of our data system security
measures could enable unauthorized persons to access sensitive business data, including
information relating to our intellectual property or business strategy or those of our customers.
Such malfunction or disruptions could cause economic losses for which we could be held liable.
A failure of our information technology systems could also cause damage to our reputation which
could harm our business. Any of these developments, alone or in combination, could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

53. Security breaches of clients’ confidential information that we store may harm our reputation
and expose us to liability.

We store clients’ information and other sensitive data. While we have measures and systems in
place to protect clients’ confidential data, any accidental or wilful security breach or other
unauthorised access could cause the theft and criminal use of this data. Security breach or
unauthorised access to confidential information could also expose us to liability related to the loss
of the information, time-consuming and expensive litigation and negative publicity. If security
measures are breached because of third party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, or
if design flaws in our software are exposed and exploited, and, as a result, a third party obtains
unauthorised access to client data, our relationships with clients will be severely damaged, and we
could incur significant liability and reputational damage. Further, we engage with certain third
party service providers, and although our contracts with them restrict the usage of client data and
impose protective precautions, there can be no assurance that they will abide by such contractual
terms or that the contracts will be found to be in compliance with data protection laws, in India
and other jurisdictions where we carry out our operations.

45
Because techniques used to obtain unauthorised access or to sabotage systems change frequently
and generally are not recognised until they are launched against a target, we and our third party
hosting facilities may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate
preventative measures. In addition, we may be required under applicable regulations to notify
individuals of data security breaches involving their personal data. These mandatory disclosures
regarding a security breach are costly to implement and often lead to widespread negative
publicity, which may cause clients to lose confidence in the effectiveness of our data security
measures.

The Information Technology Act, 2000, as amended, read with rules and regulations thereunder
requires us to maintain confidentiality of sensitive personal data or information. Our inability to
comply with the aforesaid statute can lead to monetary penalties as well as regulatory actions.
Further, the Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019 which is proposed draft of data protection law in
India, if enacted, will subject us to a higher threshold for storage, processing and protection of
personal data as well as greater liabilities for breach of our obligations. For further details, please
see “– Compliance with data privacy norms may require us to incur expenditure, which may
adversely impact its financial condition and cash flows” below.

Any security breach, whether actual or perceived, would harm our reputation, and result in loss of
clients, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of
operations, financial condition or cash flows.

54. Compliance with data privacy norms may require us to incur expenditure, which may adversely
impact its financial condition and cash flows.

We are subject to data privacy laws, rules and regulations of India and other foreign jurisdictions
where we operate, that regulate the use of customer data, in any manner whatsoever. Compliance
with these laws, rules and regulations may restrict our business activities, require us to incur
expense and devote considerable time to compliance efforts. The existing data privacy regulations
limit the extent to which we can use personal identifiable information and limit our ability to use
third-party firms in connection with customer data. Certain of these laws, rules and regulations are
relatively new and their interpretation and application remain uncertain Data privacy laws, rules
and regulations are also subject to change and may become more restrictive in the future. For
instance, the Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019 (“PDP Bill”), applies to processing of personal
data, which has been collected, disclosed, shared or processed within India. It imposes restrictions
and obligations on data fiduciaries, resulting from dealing with personal data and further, provides
for levy of penalties for breach of obligations prescribed under the PDP Bill. Changes or further
restrictions in data privacy laws, rules and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our
business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations. The cost and operational
consequences of implementing further data protection measures, in the jurisdictions where we
operate, could be significant and this may have a material adverse effect on our business, cash
flows, financial condition and results of operations.

External Risk Factors

55. There could be political, economic or other factors that are beyond our control but may have a
material adverse impact on our business and results of operations should they materialise.

The following external risks may have a material adverse impact on our business and results of
operations should any of them materialise:

 Political instability, a change in the Government or a change in the economic and


deregulation policies could adversely affect economic conditions in India in general and our
business in particular;

46
 A slowdown in economic growth in India could adversely affect our business and results of
operations. The growth of our business and our performance is linked to the performance of
the overall Indian economy. We are also impacted by consumer spending levels and
businesses such as ours would be particularly affected should Indian consumers in our target
segment have reduced access to disposable income;
 Civil unrest, acts of violence, terrorist attacks, regional conflicts or situations or war involving
India or other countries could materially and adversely affect the financial markets which
could impact our business. Such incidents could impact economic growth or create a
perception that investment in Indian companies involves a higher degree in risk which could
reduce the value of our Equity Shares;
 Any downgrading of India's sovereign rating by international credit rating agencies may
negatively impact our business and access to capital. In such event, our ability to grow our
business and operate profitably would be severely constrained;
 Instances of corruption in India have the potential to discourage investors and derail the
growth prospects of the Indian economy. Corruption creates economic and regulatory
uncertainty and could have an adverse effect on our business, profitability and results of
operations; and
 The Indian economy has had sustained periods of high inflation. Should inflation continue to
increase sharply, our profitability and results of operations may be adversely impacted. High
rates of inflation in India could increase our employee costs, decrease the disposable income
available to our customers and decrease our operating margins, which could have an adverse
effect on our profitability and results of operations.
 A significant change in India’s economic liberalization and deregulation policies, in
particular, those relating to the businesses in which we operate, could disrupt business and
economic conditions in India generally.
 Further, other factors which may adversely affect the Indian economy are scarcity of credit or
other financing in India, resulting in an adverse impact on economic conditions in India and
scarcity of financing of our developments and expansions; volatility in, and actual or
perceived trends in trading activity on, India’s principal stock exchanges; changes in India’s
tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies, like political instability, terrorism or military conflict
in India or in countries in the region or globally, including in India’s various neighbouring
countries; occurrence of natural or man-made disasters; infectious disease outbreaks or other
serious public health concerns, like the current pandemic of COVID-19; prevailing regional
or global economic conditions, including in India’s principal export markets; and other
significant regulatory or economic developments in or affecting India

56. Recent global economic conditions have been challenging and continue to affect the Indian
market, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects.

We are incorporated in, and majority of our operations are located in, India. As a result, we are
highly dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and our results of operations are
significantly affected by factors influencing the Indian economy. The Indian economy and its
securities markets are influenced by economic developments and volatility in securities markets in
other countries. Investors’ reactions to developments in one country may have adverse effects on
the market price of securities of companies located in other countries, including India. Negative
economic developments, such as rising fiscal or trade deficits, or a default on national debt, in
other emerging market countries may also affect investor confidence and cause increased
volatility in Indian securities markets and indirectly affect the Indian economy in general. In
particular, due to the COVID-2019 pandemic, the global economy including the Indian economy
are experiencing an extreme slowdown in economic activity and recessionary conditions may be

47
prevalent globally in the near to medium term. Any worldwide financial instability could also
have a negative impact on the Indian economy, including the movement of exchange rates and
interest rates in India and could then adversely affect our business, financial performance and the
price of the Equity Shares.

Any other global economic developments or the perception that any of them could occur may
continue to have an adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global
financial markets, and may significantly reduce global market liquidity and restrict the ability of
key market participants to operate in certain financial markets. Any of these factors could depress
economic activity and restrict our access to capital, which could have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations and reduce the price of the Equity Shares.
Any financial disruption could have an adverse effect on our business, future financial
performance, shareholders’ equity and the price of the Equity Shares.

57. A prolonged slowdown in economic growth in India or financial instability in other countries
could cause our business to suffer.

The current slowdown in the Indian economy could adversely affect our business and our lenders
and contractual counterparties, especially if such a slowdown were to be prolonged.
Notwithstanding the RBI’s policy initiatives, the course of market interest rates continues to be
uncertain due to the high inflation, the increase in the fiscal deficit and the Government’s
borrowing program. Any increase in inflation in the future, because of increases in prices of
commodities such as crude oil or otherwise, may result in a tightening of monetary policy. The
uncertainty regarding liquidity and interest rates and any increase in interest rates or reduction in
liquidity could adversely impact our business.

In addition, the Indian market and the Indian economy are influenced by economic and market
conditions in other countries, particularly those of emerging market countries in Asia.

Following the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union (“Brexit”), there remains
significant uncertainty around the terms of their future relationship with the European Union and,
more generally, as to the impact of Brexit on the general economic conditions in the United
Kingdom and the European Union and any consequential impact on global financial markets. For
example, Brexit could give rise to increased volatility in foreign exchange rate movements and
the value of equity and debt investments.

These and other related events have had a significant impact on the global credit and financial
markets as a whole, including reduced liquidity, greater volatility, widening of credit spreads and
a lack of price transparency in the United States, Europe and global credit and financial markets.
In response to such developments, legislators and financial regulators in the United States, Europe
and other jurisdictions, including India, have implemented several policy measures designed to
add stability to the financial markets. In addition, any announcement by the United State Federal
Reserve to increase interest rates may lead to an increase in the borrowing costs in the United
States and may impact borrowing globally as well. Further, in several parts of the world, there are
signs of increasing retreat from globalization of goods, services and people, as pressures for
protectionism are building up and such developments could have the potential to affect exports
from India.

Investors’ reactions to developments in one country may have adverse effects on the economies of
other countries including the Indian economy. A loss of investor confidence in the financial
systems of other emerging markets may cause increased volatility in the Indian financial markets
and, indirectly, in the Indian economy in general. Any worldwide financial instability could
influence the Indian economy and could have a material adverse effect on our business, cash
flows, financial condition and results of operations.

48
58. Significant differences exist between Ind AS and other accounting principles, such as IFRS
and U.S. GAAP, which may be material to investors' assessment of our financial condition.

Ind AS differs from other accounting principles with which prospective investors may be familiar,
such as IFRS and U.S. GAAP. We have not attempted to quantify the impact of U.S. GAAP or
IFRS on the financial data included in this Letter of Offer, nor do we provide a reconciliation of
our financial statements to those of U.S. GAAP or IFRS. U.S. GAAP and IFRS differ in
significant respects from Ind AS. Accordingly, the degree to which the Ind AS financial
statements, which are included in this Letter of Offer will provide meaningful information is
entirely dependent on the reader’s level of familiarity with Indian accounting practices. Any
reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting practices on the financial disclosures
presented in this Letter of Offer should accordingly be limited.

59. A third party could be prevented from acquiring control of us because of the anti-takeover
provisions under Indian law.

There are provisions in Indian law that may delay, deter or prevent a future takeover or change in
control of our Company. Under the takeover regulations, an acquirer has been defined as any
person who, directly or indirectly, acquires or agrees to acquire shares or voting rights or control
over a company, whether individually or acting in concert with others. Although these provisions
have been formulated to ensure that interests of investors/shareholders are protected, these
provisions may also discourage a third party from attempting to take control of our Company.
Consequently, even if a potential takeover of our Company would result in the purchase of the
Equity Shares at a premium to their market price or would otherwise be beneficial to our
Shareholders, such a takeover may not be attempted or consummated because of the takeover
regulations.

60. Inflation in India could have an adverse effect on our profitability and if significant, on our
financial condition.

Continued high rates of inflation may increase our expenses related to salaries or wages payable
to our employees or any other expenses. There can be no assurance that we will be able to pass on
any additional expenses to our payers or that our revenue will increase proportionately
corresponding to such inflation. Accordingly, high rates of inflation in India could have an
adverse effect on our profitability and, if significant, on our financial condition.

61. The occurrence of natural or man-made disasters could adversely affect our results of
operations, cash flows and financial condition. Hostilities, terrorist attacks, civil unrest and
other acts of violence could adversely affect the financial markets and our business.

The occurrence of natural disasters, including cyclones, storms, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis,
tornadoes, fires, explosions, pandemic disease with the most recent example being the global
outbreak of COVID-19, and man-made disasters, including acts of terrorism and military actions,
could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. Terrorist
attacks and other acts of violence or war may adversely affect the Indian securities markets. In
addition, any deterioration in international relations, especially between India and its
neighbouring countries, may result in investor concern regarding regional stability which could
adversely affect the price of the Equity Shares. In addition, India has witnessed local civil
disturbances in recent years and it is possible that future civil unrest as well as other adverse
social, economic or political events in India could have an adverse effect on our business. Such
incidents could also create a greater perception that investment in Indian companies involves a
higher degree of risk and could have an adverse effect on our business and the market price of the
Equity Shares.

49
62. Rights of shareholders under Indian laws may differ from the laws of other jurisdictions.

Our articles of association and Indian law govern our corporate affairs. Indian legal principles
related to corporate procedures, directors’ fiduciary duties and liabilities, and shareholders’ rights
may differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction. Shareholders’ rights
including in relation to class actions, under Indian law may not be as extensive as shareholders’
rights under the laws of other countries or jurisdictions.

63. Investors may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us or our management.

Our Company is incorporated under the laws of India. All of our Directors are residents of India
and a substantial portion of our assets and the assets of the Directors are located in India. As a
result, investors may find it difficult to (i) effect service of process upon us or these directors and
executive officers in jurisdictions outside of India, (ii) enforce court judgments obtained outside
of India, (iii) enforce, in an Indian court, court judgments obtained outside of India, and (iv)
obtain expeditious adjudication of an original action in an Indian court to enforce liabilities.

Recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments is provided for under Section 13 and Section
44A of the Civil Procedure Code, on a statutory basis. Section 13 of the Civil Procedure Code
provides that a foreign judgment shall be conclusive regarding any matter directly adjudicated
upon between the same parties or parties litigating under the same title, except: (i) where the
judgment has not been pronounced by a court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) where the judgment
has not been given on the merits of the case; (iii) where it appears on the face of the proceedings
that the judgment is founded on an incorrect view of international law or a refusal to recognize the
law of India in cases in which such law is applicable; (iv) where the proceedings in which the
judgment was obtained were opposed to natural justice; (v) where the judgment has been obtained
by fraud; or (vi) where the judgment sustains a claim founded on a breach of any law then in force
in India. India is not a party to any international treaty in relation to the recognition or
enforcement of foreign judgments. However, Section 44A of the Civil Procedure Code provides
that a foreign judgment rendered by a superior court (within the meaning of that section) in any
jurisdiction outside India which the Government has by notification declared to be a reciprocating
territory, may be enforced in India by proceedings in execution as if the judgment had been
rendered by a competent court in India. However, Section 44A of the Civil Procedure Code is
applicable only to monetary decrees not being in the nature of any amounts payable in respect of
taxes or other charges of a like nature or in respect of a fine or other penalties and does not
include arbitration awards.

Among other jurisdictions, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Republic
of Singapore and Hong Kong have been declared by the Government to be reciprocating
territories for the purposes of Section 44A of the Civil Procedure Code, but the USA has not been
so declared. A judgment of a court in a jurisdiction which is not a reciprocating territory may be
enforced only by a fresh suit upon the judgment and not by proceedings in execution. The suit
must be brought in India within three years from the date of the foreign judgment in the same
manner as any other suit filed to enforce a civil liability in India. It is unlikely that a court in India
would award damages on the same basis as a foreign court if an action is brought in India.
Furthermore, it is unlikely that an Indian court would enforce foreign judgments if it viewed the
amount of damages awarded as excessive or inconsistent with public policy of India. Further, any
judgment or award in a foreign currency would be converted into Rupees on the date of such
judgment or award and not on the date of payment. A party seeking to enforce a foreign judgment
in India is required to obtain approval from the RBI to repatriate outside India any amount
recovered, and any such amount may be subject to income tax in accordance with applicable laws.

64. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application of
corporate and tax laws, may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial
condition and prospects.

50
The regulatory and policy environment in which we operate is evolving and subject to change.
Such changes, including the instances mentioned below, may adversely affect our business, results
of operations, financial condition and prospects, to the extent that we are unable to suitably
respond to and comply with any such changes in applicable law and policy.

 The GoI proposed to revamp the implementation of direct taxes by way of the
introduction of the Direct Tax Code.

 GAAR provisions became applicable from Assessment year 2018-19 and onwards. GAAR is
an anti-avoidance rule framed by Department of Revenue under Ministry of Finance to
identify and restrict arrangements and transactions that are specifically incurred with a motive
of tax evasion. The tax consequences of the GAAR provisions being applied to an
arrangement could result in denial of tax benefit amongst other consequences. In the absence
of any precedents on the subject, the application of these provisions is uncertain. If the GAAR
provisions are made applicable to our Company, it may have an adverse tax impact on us.

 In addition, the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Ordinance, 2019, a new tax ordinance issued by
India’s Ministry of Finance on September 20, 2019, prescribes certain changes to the income
tax rate applicable to companies in India. According to this new ordinance, companies can
henceforth voluntarily opt in favour of a concessional tax regime (subject to no other special
benefits/exemptions being claimed), which would ultimately reduce the effective tax rate for
India companies from 34.94% to approximately 25.17%. Any such similar material
amendments in the laws governing taxation in India may result in changing or modifying our
policies/ standards and accordingly, our business, financial condition and results of operations
could be impacted.

We have not determined the impact of these legislations on our business. Uncertainty in the
applicability, interpretation or implementation of any amendment to, or change in, governing
law, regulation or policy in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including by reason of an
absence, or a limited body, of administrative or judicial precedent may be time consuming as
well as costly for us to resolve and may impact the viability of our current business or restrict
our ability to grow our business in the future.

65. Fluctuation in the exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and foreign currencies may have an
adverse effect on the value of our Equity Shares, independent of our operating results.

Our Equity Shares are quoted in Indian Rupees on the Stock Exchanges. Any dividends in respect
of our Equity Shares will be paid in Indian Rupees and subsequently converted into the relevant
foreign currency for repatriation, if required. Any adverse movement in currency exchange rates
during the time that it takes to undertake such conversion may reduce the net dividend to foreign
investors. In addition, any adverse movement in currency exchange rates during a delay in
repatriating outside India the proceeds from a sale of Equity Shares, for example, because of a
delay in regulatory approvals that may be required for the sale of Equity Shares may reduce the
proceeds received by Shareholders. For example, the exchange rate between the Rupee and the
U.S. dollar has fluctuated substantially in recent years, in particular has significantly depreciated in
the year 2020 and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future, which may have an adverse
effect on the trading price of our Equity Shares and returns on our Equity Shares, independent of
our operating results.

66. Any downgrading of India’s debt rating by a domestic or international rating agency could
negatively impact our business and the price of our Equity Shares.

Any adverse revisions to India’s credit ratings or of the countries where Subsidiaries are present or

51
ratings of financing partners/lenders or geographies of their operations, by domestic or
international rating agencies may adversely impact our ability to raise additional financing, and the
interest rates and other commercial terms at which such additional financing is available. This
could have an adverse effect on our financial results and business prospects, ability to obtain
financing for capital expenditures and the price of our Equity Shares

Risks in relation to Equity Shares

67. We will not distribute this Letter of Offer, the Abridged Letter of Offer, the Application Form
and the Rights Entitlements Letter to certain categories of overseas shareholders.

In accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations and Relaxations for Rights Issue Circulars, our
Company will send, primarily through e-mail, the Abridged Letter of Offer, the Application Form
and other applicable Issue material to the e-mail addresses of all the Eligible Equity Shareholders
who have provided their Indian addresses to our Company. Further, this Letter of Offer will be
provided, primarily through e-mail, by the Registrar on behalf of our Company or the Lead
Manager to the Eligible Equity Shareholders who have provided their Indian addresses to our
Company. In the event the e-mail addresses of the Eligible Equity Shareholders are not available
with the Company or the Eligible Equity Shareholders have not provided the valid e-mail address
to the Company, our Company will dispatch this Letter of Offer, Abridged Letter of Offer,
Application Form and other applicable Issue materials, to the extent possible, by way of physical
delivery, to the extent possible, as per the applicable laws to those Eligible Equity Shareholders
who have provided their Indian address. Other than as indicated above, the Issue materials will
not be distributed to addresses outside India on account of restrictions that apply to circulation of
such materials in overseas jurisdictions. However, the Companies Act requires companies to serve
documents at any address, which may be provided by the members as well as through e-mail.
Presently, there is lack of clarity under the Companies Act, 2013 and the rules made thereunder
with respect to distribution of the Issue materials in overseas jurisdictions where such distribution
may be prohibited under the applicable laws of such jurisdictions. We have requested all the
overseas Eligible Equity Shareholders to provide an address in India and their e-mail addresses
for the purposes of distribution of the Issue materials. However, we cannot assure you that SEBI
or any other authority would not adopt a different view with respect to compliance with the
Companies Act and may subject us to fines or penalties.

68. The R-WAP payment mechanism facility proposed to be used for this Issue may be exposed to
risks, including risks associated with payment gateways.

In accordance with Relaxations for Rights Issue Circulars, a separate web based application
platform, i.e., the R-WAP facility (accessible at www.linkintime.com) has been instituted for
making an Application in this Issue by resident Investors. Further, R-WAP is only an additional
option and not a replacement of the ASBA process. On R-WAP, the resident Investors can access
and fill the Application Form in electronic mode and make online payment using the internet
banking or UPI facility from their own bank account thereat. For details, please see section titled
“Terms of the Issue – Procedure for Application through the R-WAP” on page 231. Such payment
gateways and mechanisms are faced with risks such as:

 keeping information technology systems aligned and up to date with the rapidly evolving
technology in the payment services industries;
 scaling up technology infrastructure to meet requirements of growing volumes;
 applying risk management policy effectively to such payment mechanisms;
 keeping users’ data safe and free from security breaches; and
 effectively managing payment solutions logistics and technology infrastructure.

52
Investors should also note that only certain banks provide a netbanking facility by way of which
payments can be made on the R-WAP platform. In the event that your bank does not provide such
facility, you will have to use an UPI ID to make a payment in accordance with the facility
provided under R-WAP system. Further, R-WAP is a new facility which has been instituted due
to challenges arising out of COVID-2019 pandemic. We cannot assure you that R-WAP facility
will not suffer from any unanticipated system failure or breakdown or delay, including failure on
part of the payment gateway, and therefore, your Application may not be completed or rejected.
These risks are indicative in nature and not exhaustive. Any failure to manage the R-WAP facility
may impair the functioning of the payment mechanism for this Issue. Since applying through the
R-WAP has been introduced recently and is different from the ASBA process, we cannot assure
that Investors will not face difficulties in accessing and using such facility.

69. Your ability to acquire and sell the Rights Equity Shares offered in the Issue is restricted by the
distribution, solicitation and transfer restrictions set forth in this Letter of Offer.

No actions have been taken to permit a public offering of the Rights Equity Shares offered in the
Issue in any jurisdiction except India. As such, our Rights Equity Shares have not and will not be
registered under the US Securities Act, any state securities laws or the law of any jurisdiction
other than India. Further, your ability to acquire Rights Equity Shares is restricted by the
distribution and solicitation restrictions set forth in this Letter of Offer. For further information,
please see sections titled “Notice to Overseas Investors”, “Other Regulatory and Statutory
Disclosures – Selling Restrictions” and “Restrictions on purchases and resales” on pages 10, 211
and 260, respectively. You are required to inform yourself about and observe these restrictions.
Our representatives, our agents and us will not be obligated to recognize any acquisition, transfer
or resale of the Rights Equity Shares made other than in compliance with applicable law.

70. We cannot guarantee that the Equity Shares issued under this Issue will be listed on the Stock
Exchanges in a timely manner, if at all.

In accordance with Indian law and practice, after our Board or committee passes the resolution to
allot the Equity Shares but prior to crediting such Equity Shares into the Depository Participant
accounts of the investors, we are required to apply to the Stock Exchanges for final approval for
listing and trading of the Equity Shares. There could be a failure or delay in obtaining these
approvals from the Stock Exchanges, which in turn could delay the listing of the Equity Shares on
the Stock Exchanges. Any failure or delay in obtaining these approvals would restrict your ability
to dispose of your Equity Shares. Further, historical trading prices, may not be indicative of the
prices at which the Equity Shares will trade in the future.

71. Our Promoter and Promoter Group will retain majority control of our Company after the Issue,
which will enable them to control the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders for
approval.

As on June 30, 2020 our Promoter and Promoter Group beneficially own 70.79% of our total
paid-up share capital and post the Issue shall continue to hold majority shareholding of our
Company. As a result, our Promoter and Promoter Group will continue to have the ability to
control our business including matters relating to any sale of all or substantially all of our assets,
the timing and distribution of dividends and the election, termination or appointment of our
officers and directors. This control could delay, defer or prevent a change in control of our
Company, impede a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving our
company, or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to
obtain control of our Company. Furthermore, the interest of the Promoter and Promoter Group
may conflict with the interests of other shareholders.

53
72. Any future issuance of the Equity Shares or sales of the Equity Shares by any of our significant
shareholders may adversely affect the trading price of the Equity Shares.

A future issuance of Equity Shares by us may dilute your shareholding in our Company.
Moreover, any significant disposal of Equity Shares by any of our significant shareholders, or the
perception that such sales will occur, may affect the trading price of our Equity Shares. As a
publicly traded company, there is no restriction on our shareholders to dispose of a part or the
entirety of their shareholding in our Company, which could lead to a negative sentiment in the
market regarding us that could in turn impact the value of the Equity Shares, and could impact our
ability to raise capital through an offering of our securities. There can be no assurance that we will
not issue further Equity Shares or that the shareholders will not dispose of, pledge, or otherwise
encumber their Equity Shares. In addition, any perception by investors that such issuances or sales
might occur could also affect the trading price of our Equity Shares.

73. We may be affected by competition laws, the adverse application or interpretation of which
could adversely affect our business.

The Competition Act, 2002, as amended (“Competition Act), regulates practices that have or are
likely to have an appreciable adverse effect on competition in the relevant market in India and has
established the Competition Commission of India (the “CCI”). Under the Competition Act, any
arrangement, understanding or action, whether formal or informal, which has or is likely to have
an appreciable adverse effect on competition is void and attracts substantial penalties. Any
agreement among competitors which, directly or indirectly, determines purchase or sale prices,
results in bid rigging or collusive bidding, limits or controls the production, supply or distribution
of goods and services, or shares the market or source of production or providing of services by
way of allocation of geographical area or type of goods or services or number of customers in the
relevant market or in any other similar way, is presumed to have an appreciable adverse effect on
competition and shall be void. Further, the Competition Act prohibits the abuse of a dominant
position by any enterprise. If it is proven that a breach of the Competition Act committed by a
company took place with the consent or connivance or is attributable to any neglect on the part of
any director, manager, secretary or other officer of such company, that person shall be guilty of
the breach themselves and may be punished as an individual. If we, or any of our employees, are
penalized under the Competition Act, our business may be adversely affected.

Further, the Competition Act also regulates combinations and requires approval of the CCI for
effecting any acquisition of shares, voting rights, assets or control or mergers or amalgamations
above the prescribed asset and turnover based thresholds. It is difficult to predict the impact of the
Competition Act on our growth and expansion strategies in the future. If we are affected, directly
or indirectly, by the application or interpretation of any provision of the Competition Act or any
enforcement proceedings initiated by the CCI or any adverse publicity that may be generated due
to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI, it may adversely affect our business, cash flows, financial
condition and results of operations.

74. Our ability to raise foreign capital may be constrained by Indian law. The limitations on
foreign debt may have an adverse impact on our business growth, financial condition and
results of operations.

As an Indian company, we are subject to exchange control laws that regulate borrowing in foreign
currencies. Such regulatory restrictions limit our financing sources and hence could constrain our
ability to obtain financings on competitive terms and refinance future indebtedness. In addition, it
cannot be assured to the prospective investor that the required approvals will be granted to us
without onerous conditions, or at all. The limitations on foreign debt may have an adverse impact
on our business growth, financial condition and results of operations.

54
75. Foreign investors are subject to foreign investment restrictions under Indian law that limit our
Company's ability to attract foreign investors, which may adversely affect the market price of
the Equity Shares.

Under the foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfers of shares of our
Company between non-residents and residents and issuances of shares to non-residents by our
Company are freely permitted (subject to certain exceptions), subject to compliance with certain
applicable pricing and reporting requirements. For instance, in accordance with the FEMA Non-
Debt Rules, in the event that there is a transfer of Rights Entitlements from a resident to a non-
resident, such transfer has to be made in accordance with the pricing guidelines. If such issuances
or transfers of shares are not in compliance with such requirements or fall under any of the
specified exceptions, then prior approval of the RBI will be required.

Additionally, the Government of India may impose foreign exchange restrictions in certain
emergency situations, including situations where there are sudden fluctuations in interest rates or
exchange rates, where the Government of India experiences extreme difficulty in stabilising the
balance of payments, or where there are substantial disturbances in the financial and capital
markets in India. These restrictions may require foreign investors to obtain the Government of
India's approval before acquiring Indian securities or repatriating the interest or dividends from
those securities or the proceeds from the sale of those securities. There can be no assurance that
any approval required from the RBI or any other government agency can be obtained on any
particular terms, or at all.

76. Investors may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of the Equity
Shares. The Finance Act, 2018 levies taxes on long term capital gains exceeding ₹ 1,00,000
arising from the sale of Equity Shares on or after April 1, 2018, while continuing to exempt the
unrealized capital gains earned up to January 31, 2018 on such Equity Shares.

Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of
equity shares in an Indian company is generally taxable in India. A securities transaction tax
(“STT”) is levied on and collected by an Indian stock exchange on which equity shares are sold.
Any gain realized on the sale of listed equity shares held for more than 12 months may be subject
to long term capital gains tax in India at the specified rates depending on certain factors, such as
STT is paid, the quantum of gains and any available treaty exemptions. Accordingly, you may be
subject to payment of long term capital gains tax in India, in addition to payment of STT, on the
sale of any Equity Shares held for more than 12 months. STT will be levied on and collected by a
domestic stock exchange on which the Equity Shares are sold.

Further, any gain realized on the sale of our Equity Shares held for a period of 12 months or less
will be subject to short term capital gains tax in India. Capital gains arising from the sale of the
Equity Shares will be exempt from taxation in India in cases where the exemption from taxation
in India is provided under a treaty between India and the country of which the seller is a resident.
Generally, Indian tax treaties do not limit India’s ability to impose tax on capital gains. As a
result, residents of other countries may be liable for tax in India as well as in their own
jurisdiction on a gain upon the sale of Equity Shares.

Further, the Finance Act, 2019 made various amendments in the taxation laws and has also
clarified that, in the absence of a specific provision under an agreement, the liability to pay stamp
duty in case of sale of securities through stock exchanges will be on the buyer, while in other
cases of transfer for consideration through a depository, the onus will be on the transferor.
Further, there may be tax implications for trading of the Rights Entitlements.

77. Holders of Equity Shares could be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under
Indian law and could thereby suffer future dilution of their ownership position.

55
Under the Companies Act, any company incorporated in India must offer its holders of equity
shares pre-emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of shares to maintain
their existing ownership percentages prior to the issuance of any new equity shares, unless the
pre-emptive rights have been waived by the adoption of a special resolution by holders of three-
fourths of the shares voted on such resolution. However, if the law of the jurisdiction that you are
in does not permit the exercise of such pre-emptive rights without us filing an offering document
or registration statement with the applicable authority in such jurisdiction, you will be unable to
exercise such pre-emptive rights unless we make such a filing. We may elect not to file a
registration statement in relation to pre-emptive rights otherwise available by Indian law to you.
To the extent that you are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights granted in respect of the Rights
Equity Shares, your proportional interests in us would be reduced.

78. Overseas shareholders may not be able to participate in the Company’s future rights offerings
or certain other equity issues.

If our Company offers or causes to be offered to holders of its Equity Shares rights to subscribe
for additional Equity Shares or any right of any other nature, our Company will have discretion as
to the procedure to be followed in making such rights available to holders of the Equity Shares or
in disposing of such rights for the benefit of such holders and making the net proceeds available
to such holders. For instance, our Company may not offer such rights to the holders of Equity
Shares who have a registered address in the United States unless: (i) a registration statement is in
effect, if a registration statement under the US Securities Act is required in order for the Company
to offer such rights to holders and sell the securities represented by such rights; or (ii) the offering
and sale of such rights or the underlying securities to such holders are exempt from registration
under the provisions of the US Securities Act. Our Company has no obligation to prepare or file
any registration statement. Accordingly, shareholders who have a registered address in the United
States may be unable to participate in future rights offerings and may experience a dilution in
their holdings as a result.

79. Applicants to the Issue are not allowed to withdraw their bids after the Issue Closing Date.

In terms of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, Applicants in this Issue are not allowed to withdraw their
Applications after the Issue Closing Date. The Allotment in this Issue and the credit of such
Equity Shares to the Applicant’s demat account with its depository participant shall be completed
within such period as prescribed under the applicable laws. There is no assurance, however, that
material adverse changes in the international or national monetary, financial, political or
economic conditions or other events in the nature of force majeure, material adverse changes in
our business, results of operation or financial condition, or other events affecting the Applicant’s
decision to invest in the Rights Equity Shares, would not arise between the Issue Closing Date
and the date of Allotment in this Issue. Occurrence of any such events after the Issue Closing Date
could also impact the market price of our Equity Shares. The Applicants shall not have the right to
withdraw their applications in the event of any such occurrence. We cannot assure you that the
market price of the Equity Shares will not decline below the Issue Price. To the extent the market
price for the Equity Shares declines below the Issue Price after the Issue Closing Date, the
shareholder will be required to purchase Rights Equity Shares at a price that will be higher than
the actual market price for the Equity Shares at that time. Should that occur, the shareholder will
suffer an immediate unrealized loss as a result. We may complete the Allotment even if such
events may limit the Applicants’ ability to sell our Equity Shares after this Issue or cause the
trading price of our Equity Shares to decline.

80. The Issue Price of the Rights Equity Shares may not be indicative of the market price of the
Equity Shares after the Issue.

56
The Issue Price of the Rights Equity Shares will be determined by our Company in consultation
with the Lead Manager and the Designated Stock Exchange. This price may not be indicative of
the market price for the Equity Shares after the Issue. The market price of the Equity Shares could
be subject to significant fluctuations after the Issue, and may decline below the Issue Price. We
cannot assure you that you will be able to resell your Equity Shares at or above the Issue Price.
There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the Equity Shares will be sustained
after this Issue, or that the price at which the Equity Shares have historically traded will
correspond to the price at which the Equity Shares will trade in the market subsequent to this
Issue.

81. Failure to exercise or sell the Rights Entitlements will cause the Rights Entitlements to lapse
without compensation and result in a dilution of shareholding.

The Rights Entitlements that are not exercised prior to the end of the Issue Closing Date will
expire and become null and void, and Eligible Equity Shareholders will not receive any
consideration for them. The proportionate ownership and voting interest in our Company of
Eligible Equity Shareholders who fail (or are not able) to exercise their Rights Entitlements will
be diluted. Even if you elect to sell your unexercised Rights Entitlements, the consideration you
receive for them may not be sufficient to fully compensate you for the dilution of your percentage
ownership of the equity share capital of our Company that may be caused as a result of the Issue.
Renouncees may not be able to apply in case of failure in completion of renunciation through off-
market transfer in such a manner that the Rights Entitlements are credited to the demat account of
the Renouncees prior to the Issue Closing Date. Further, in case, the Rights Entitlements do not
get credited in time, in case of On Market Renunciation, such Renouncee will not be able to apply
in this Issue with respect to such Rights Entitlements.

82. Investors will not have the option of getting the Allotment of Rights Equity Shares in physical
form.

In accordance with SEBI ICDR Regulations, the Rights Equity Shares shall be issued only in
dematerialized form. Investors will not have the option of getting the allotment of Rights Equity
Shares in physical form. The Rights Equity Shares Allotted to the Applicants who do not have
demat accounts or who have not specified their demat details, will be kept in abeyance till receipt
of the details of the demat account of such Applicants. This further means that they will have no
voting rights in respect of the Rights Equity Shares. Further, the Rights Entitlement will not be
transferred by our Company in case the Eligible Shareholder does not have a demat account. For
details, please see section titled “Terms of the Issue – Credit and Transfer of Rights Equity Shares
in case of Shareholders holding Equity Shares in Physical Form and disposal of Rights Equity
Shares for non-receipt of demat account details in a timely manner” on page 250.

83. Investors will be subject to market risks until our Equity Shares credited to the investor’s demat
account are listed and permitted to trade.

Investors can start trading our Equity Shares Allotted to them only after they have been credited
to an investor’s demat account, are listed and permitted to trade. Since our Equity Shares are
currently traded on the Stock Exchanges, investors will be subject to market risk from the date
they pay for our Equity Shares to the date when trading approval is granted for the same. Further,
there can be no assurance that our Equity Shares allocated to an investor will be credited to the
investor’s demat account or that trading in such Equity Shares will commence in a timely manner.

The selection of borrowings proposed to be repaid and from our facilities set forth below shall be

consolidated financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act”) in

The Holding Company’s management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information.
The other information comprises the information included in the Holding Company’s annual report, but
does not include the financial statements and our auditors’ report thereon.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do
not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent
with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears
to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed and based on the work done/ audit
report of other auditors, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we
are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

104
Management’s and Board of Directors’ Responsibilities for the Consolidated Financial
Statements
The Holding Company’s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation and
presentation of these consolidated financial statements in term of the requirements of the Act that give
a true and fair view of the consolidated state of affairs, consolidated profit/ loss and other comprehensive
income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group including
its associates and joint ventures in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India,
including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified under section 133 of the Act. The
respective Management and Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its
associates and joint ventures are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in
accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of each company. and for
preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; the selection and application of appropriate
accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design,
implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively
for ensuring accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and
presentation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for the purpose of preparation
of the consolidated financial statements by the Management and Directors of the Holding Company, as
aforesaid.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the respective Management and Board of Directors
of the companies included in the Group and of its associates and joint ventures are responsible for
assessing the ability of each company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters
related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the respective Board of
Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative
but to do so.

The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its associates and joint
ventures is responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of each company.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements
as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee
that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it
exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the
basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

 Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and
obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk
of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.

 Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible
for expressing our opinion on the internal financial controls with reference to the consolidated
financial statements and the operating effectiveness of such controls based on our audit.

105
 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by the Management and Board of Directors.

 Conclude on the appropriateness of Management and Board of Directors use of the going concern
basis of accounting in preparation of consolidated financial statements and, based on the audit
evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast
significant doubt on the appropriateness of this assumption. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures
in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report.
However, future events or conditions may cause the Group and its associates and joint ventures to
cease to continue as a going concern.

 Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

 Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of such entities or
business activities within the Group and its associates and joint ventures to express an opinion on the
consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance
of the audit of financial information of such entities included in the consolidated financial statements
of which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the consolidated financial
statements, which have been audited by other auditors, such other auditors remain responsible for
the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them. We remain solely
responsible for our audit opinion. Our responsibilities in this regard are further described in section
titled ‘Other Matters’ in this audit report.

We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us along with the consideration of audit reports of the
other auditors referred to in ‘Other Matters’ paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements.

We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company and such other entities
included in the consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent auditors regarding,
among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including
any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related
safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that
were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and
are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or
regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we
determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of
doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Other Matters
(a) We did not audit the financial statements of nineteen subsidiaries, whose financial statements reflect
total assets (before consolidation adjustments) of Rs.947.37 crores as at 31 March 2020, total
revenues (before consolidation adjustments) of Rs.1,163.14 crores and net cash inflows (before
consolidation adjustments) amounting to Rs.10.04 crores for the year ended on that date, as
considered in the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements also
include the Group’s share of net profit after tax (before consolidation adjustments) of Rs. 14.19
crores and the Group’s share of total comprehensive income (before consolidation adjustments) of
Rs.14.34 crores for the year ended 31 March 2020, in respect of ten associates/joint ventures, whose

financial statements have not been audited by us. These financial statements have been audited by
other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us by the Management/component auditor and

joint ventures and associates is based solely on the audit reports of the other auditors.

and other financial information have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in their respective countries and which have been audited by other auditors under
generally accepted auditing standards applicable in their respective countries. The Holding
Company’s management has converted the financial statements of such subsidiaries and a joint
venture located outside India from accounting principles generally accepted in their respective
countries to accounting principles generally accepted in India. We have audited these conversion
adjustments made by the Holding Company’s management. Our opinion in so far as it relates to the
balances and affairs of such subsidiaries and a joint venture located outside India is based on the
report of other auditors and the conversion adjustments prepared by the management of the Holding
Company and audited by us.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, and our report on Other Legal and Regulatory
Requirements below, is not modified in respect of the above matters with respect to our reliance on the
work done and the reports of the other auditors.

Opinion
In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of Minda Industries Limited
(hereinafter referred to as “the Holding Company”) as of and for the year ended 31 March 2020, we
have audited the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements of
Holding Company and such companies incorporated in India under the Companies Act, 2013 which are
its subsidiary companies, its associate companies and its joint venture companies, as of that date.
In our opinion, the Holding Company and such companies incorporated in India which are its subsidiary
companies, its associate companies and joint venture companies, have, in all material respects, adequate
internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements and such internal financial
controls were operating effectively as at 31 March 2020, based on the internal financial controls with
reference to consolidated financial statements criteria established by such companies considering the
essential components of such internal controls stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal
Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India
(the “Guidance Note”).

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls


The respective Company’s management and the Board of Directors are responsible for establishing and
maintaining internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements based on the
criteria established by the respective Company considering the essential components of internal control
stated in the Guidance Note. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance
of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and
efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the respective company’s policies, the
safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as
required under the Companies Act, 2013 (hereinafter referred to as “the Act”).

Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the internal financial controls with reference to
consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing, prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent
applicable to an audit of internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements.
Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with
reference to consolidated financial statements were established and maintained and if such controls
operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal
financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements and their operating effectiveness.
Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements included
obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial
statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and
operating effectiveness of the internal controls based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected
depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of
the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by the other
auditors of the relevant subsidiary companies, associate companies and joint venture companies in terms
of their reports referred to in the Other Matters paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our audit opinion on the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial
statements.

109
Meaning of Internal Financial controls with Reference to Consolidated Financial Statements
A company's internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements is a process
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of Consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial controls with reference to consolidated
financial statements includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records
that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of
the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with
authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the
company's assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial controls with Reference to consolidated Financial


Statements
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial
statements, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation
of the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements to future periods
are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial
statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Other Matters
Our aforesaid reports under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of
the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements insofar as it relates to
three subsidiary companies and seven associate/joint venture companies, which are companies
incorporated in India, is based on the corresponding reports of the auditors of such companies
incorporated in India.

from time to time) notified under Section 133 of Companies Act, 2013, (the ‘Act’) and other relevant
provisions of the Act.

The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Parent Company’s Board of
Directors on 29 June 2020.

Details of the Group’s accounting policies are included in Note 2 (b).

B. Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The
consolidated financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee, which is Minda Industries Limited’s
functional and presentation currency. All amounts have been rounded-off to the nearest crores, unless
otherwise indicated.

C. Basis of measurement

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the
following items:

(a) Certain financial assets and liabilities Fair value


(including derivative financial instruments)
(b) Net defined benefit (asset)/ liability Fair value of plan assets less present value of
defined benefit obligations

D. Use of estimates and judgements

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Critical estimates and judgements

This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and
of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be
different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is
included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line
item in the financial statements.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised prospectively.

Areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:

- Estimation of current tax expense and payable – Note 43


- Estimation of fair value of unlisted securities – Note 54
- Estimation of defined benefit obligation – Note 42
- Recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies: key assumptions about the
likelihood and magnitude of an outflow of resources – Note 38 and 45
- Lease - Note 46
- Consolidation: whether the Group has de facto control over an investee
- Business combinations: fair value of the consideration transferred (including contingent
consideration) and fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, measured on a
provisional basis – Note 55
- Recognition of deferred tax– Note 7
- Impairment of financial assets

E. Measurement of fair values

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require measurement of fair values, for
both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the
valuation techniques as follows.

- Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
- Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
- Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable
-inputs).

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses observable market data as far as
possible. If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of
the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level
of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.

The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting
period during which the change has occurred.

Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in the following
notes:

- Note 47 - share-based payment


- Note 54 - fair value measurements
- Note 55 - acquisition of subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities

F. Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements (CFS) are prepared on the following basis in accordance with Ind
AS on “Consolidated Financial Statements” (Ind AS – 110), “Investments in Associates and Joint
Ventures” (Ind AS – 28) and “Disclosure of interest in other entities” (Ind AS – 112), specified under
Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013.

i. Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or
has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those
returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the
consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which
control ceases.

ii. Non-controlling interests (NCI)

NCI are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets at the date of
acquisition. Changes in the Group’s equity interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control
are accounted for as equity transactions.

iii. Loss of control

When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets and liabilities of the
subsidiary, and any related NCI and other components of equity. Any interest retained in the former
subsidiary is measured at fair value at the date the control is lost. Any resulting gain or loss is
recognised in profit or loss.

iv. Equity accounted investees

The Group’s interests in equity accounted investees comprise interests in associates and joint ventures.
An associate is an entity in which the Group has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over
the financial and operating policies. A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Group has joint
control and has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and
obligations for its liabilities.

Interests in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. They are initially
recognised at cost which includes transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the consolidated
financial statements include the Group’s share of profit or loss and OCI of equity- accounted investees
until the date on which significant influence or joint control ceases.

(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

v. Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-
group transactions, are eliminated. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity accounted
investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee.
Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no
evidence of impairment.

vi. Business combination

Business combinations, other than through common control transactions, are accounted for using the purchase
(acquisition) method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity
instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange. The cost of acquisition also
includes the fair value of any contingent consideration. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent
liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair value on the date of acquisition.

Business combinations through common control transactions are accounted on a pooling of interest method.
Under pooling of interest method, the assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying
amounts, with adjustments only to harmonise accounting policies.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the
amount recognised for non-controlling interests, and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable assets
acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate
consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and
all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognised at the
acquisition date. If the re-assessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the
aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) and
accumulated in other equity as capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of bargain purchase, the
entity recognises the gain directly in other equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through OCI.
Consideration transferred includes the fair values of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred by the Company to
the previous owners of the acquiree, and equity interests issued by the Group.

Consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration. Consideration transferred
does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Any goodwill that arises on
account of such business combination is tested annually for impairment.

Any contingent consideration is measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. If an obligation to pay
contingent consideration that meets the definition of a financial instrument is classified as equity, then it is not re-
measured and the settlement is accounted for within other equity. Otherwise, other contingent consideration is re-
measured at fair value at each reporting date and subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent
consideration are recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. A contingent liability of the
acquiree is assumed in a business combination only if such a liability represents a present obligation and arises
from a past event, and its fair value can be measured reliably. On an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, the Group
recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s
proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets.

Transaction costs that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination, such as Stamp Duty for
title transfer in the name of the Group, finder’s fees, legal fees, due diligence fees and other professional and
consulting fees, are expensed as incurred.

The consolidated financial statements are comprised of the financial statements of the members of the
Group as under:

2. (b) Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to the period presented in these consolidated financial
statements.

a. Foreign currency transactions


Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded into the respective functional currencies of the Group’s entities at
the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions or an average rate if the average rate approximates the actual rate at the
date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rate of
exchange at the reporting date.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the
exchange rate at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured based
on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the initial transaction.
Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss, except exchange differences arising from the translation of the
following items which are recognised in OCI:

• equity investments at fair value through OCI (FVOCI);

Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations (subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures) including goodwill and fair value
adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated into INR, the functional currency of the Company, at the exchange rates
at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated into INR at the exchange rates at the dates
of the transactions or an average rate if the average rate approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction.
Foreign currency translation differences are recognised in OCI and accumulated in equity (as exchange differences on
translating the financial statements of a foreign operation), except to the extent that the exchange differences are allocated
to NCI.

b. Financial instruments
i. Initial Recognition and Measurement

Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets
and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument.

A financial asset or financial liability is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at fair value through profit and
loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue.

ii. Classification and subsequent measurement Financial assets


On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at

Financial Assets at FVPL These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including
any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss.
Financial Assets at amortised cost These assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective
interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest
income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognized in
profit or loss. Any gains or loss or derecognition is are recognized in profit or
loss.
Debt investments at FVOCI These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income under
effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are
recognized in profit or loss. Other income and net gains and losses accumulated
in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss.
Equity investments at FVOCI These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividend income are
recognized in profit or loss unless dividend clearly represents a recovery of part
of cost of investment. Other income and net gains and losses are recognized in
OCI and are not reclassified to profit or loss.

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, except if and in the period the Group changes its
business model for managing financial assets. 122
Minda Industries Limited
Notes forming part of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2019
(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at
FVTPL:
− the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
− the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
− the asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and
selling financial assets; and
− the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Group may irrevocably elect to present
subsequent changes in the investment’s fair value in OCI (designated as FVOCI – equity investment). This election is
made on an investment-by-investment basis.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL.
This includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate a financial asset that
otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or
significantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

Financial assets that are held for trading or are managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are
measured at FVTPL.

Financial assets: Subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Financial assets at FVTPL : These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any
interest or dividend income, are recognised in profit or loss.

Financial assets at amortised cost : These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method. The amortised cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and
impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss.

Debt investments at FVOCI : These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income under the effective
interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in profit or loss. Other net gains and
losses are recognised in OCI. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss.

Equity investments at FVOCI : These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognised as income in
profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and
losses are recognised in OCI and are not reclassified to profit or loss.

Financial liabilities: Classification, subsequent measurement and gains and losses

Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if
it is classified as held‑for‑trading, or it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at
FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in profit or loss.
Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense
and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also
recognised in profit or loss.

iii. Derecognition

Financial assets

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it
transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of
ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the
risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control of the financial asset.

If the Group enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its balance sheet, but retains either all or
substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognised.
123
Minda Industries Limited
Notes forming part of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2019
(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

Financial liabilities

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire.

The Group also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows under the modified terms
are substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. The
difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and the new financial liability with modified
terms is recognised in profit or loss.

iv. Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the
Group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to
realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

v. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

The Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate risk exposures. Embedded
derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the host contract is not a financial asset and
certain criteria are met.

Derivatives are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value,
and changes therein are generally recognised in profit or loss.

vi. Financial guarantee contracts

The Group on a case to case basis elects to account for financial guarantee contracts as a financial instrument or as an
insurance contract, as specified in Ind AS 109 on Financial Instruments and Ind AS 104 on Insurance Contracts. The Group
has regarded all its financial guarantee contracts as insurance contracts. At the end of each reporting period the Group
performs a liability adequacy test, (i.e. it assesses the likelihood of a pay-out based on current undiscounted estimates of
future cash flows), and any deficiency is recognized in profit or loss.

vii. Compound Financial instruments

Compound financial instruments issued by the Group comprise cumulative redeemable preference shares denominated in
INR that are mandatorily redeemable at a fixed or determinable amount at a fixed or future date and the payment of
dividends is discretionary.

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is initially recognized at the fair value of a similar liability that
does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is initially recognized at the difference between the fair
value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly
attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying
amounts.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not remeasured
subsequently.

Interest related to the financial liability is recognized in profit or loss (unless it qualifies for inclusion in the cost of an asset).

c. Current versus non-current classification

The Group presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/non-current classification. An asset is
treated as current when it is:

(a) expected to be realised in, or is intended to be sold or consumed in Group’s normal operating cycle;
(b) held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting date; or
(d) cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after
the reporting date.
124
Minda Industries Limited
Notes forming part of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2019
(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

All other assets are classified as non-current.


A Liability is current when:

(a) it is expected to be settled in Group’s normal operating cycle;


(b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
(c) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or
(d) the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the
reporting date.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.


Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

Operating cycle

Operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents. The
Group has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

d. Property, plant and equipment

i. Initial Recognition and Measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost, which includes capitalised borrowing costs, less accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable
purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates, any directly attributable cost of bringing the item to its working
condition for its intended use and estimated costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is
located.

The cost of a self-constructed item of property, plant and equipment comprises the cost of materials and direct labor, any other
costs directly attributable to bringing the item to working condition for its intended use, and estimated costs of dismantling and
removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.

If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate
items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in profit or loss.

ii. Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will
flow to the Group.

iii. Depreciation

Depreciation on plant and machinery, tools and dies and on other tangible property, plant and equipment is provided on
SLM/WDV basis, based on the rates as per useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in the case of
tools and dies, the useful life based on technical advice is 3 to 6 years.

Leasehold land and leasehold improvements are amortised on a straight line basis over the period of lease or their useful lives,
whichever is shorter. Freehold land is not depreciated.

Depreciation on additions (disposals) is provided on a pro-rata basis i.e. from (upto) the date on which asset is ready for use
(disposed of).

Depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate. In
case of a revision, the unamortized depreciable amount is charged over the revised remaining useful life.
Losses arising from retirement or gains or losses arising from disposal of fixed assets which are carried at cost are recognized in
the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
125

(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

e. Goodwill

For measurement of goodwill that arises on a business combination see note 2(a)(F)(vi). Subsequent measurement is at cost
less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortised and is tested for impairment annually.

f. Other intangible assets

Intangible assets that are acquired by the Group are measured initially at cost. After initial recognition, an intangible asset is
carried at its cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment loss.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits from the specific asset to which
it relates.

Intangible assets are amortised in the Statement of Profit or Loss over their estimated useful lives, from the date that they are
available for use based on the expected pattern of consumption of economic benefits of the asset. Accordingly, at present,
these are being amortised on straight line basis. Intangible assets are amortised over the best estimate of their respective
useful lives as under:

i) Technical know-how: Amortized over the period of agreement.


ii) Computer software: Amortized over the period of 6 years.
iii) Trade Mark: Amortized over the period of 10 years
iv) Customer relationship: Amortized over the period of agreement.

Amortisation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each financial year and adjusted if
appropriate.

An intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use and disposal.

Losses arising from retirement and gains or losses arising from disposal of an intangible asset are measured as the
difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the Consolidated
Statement of Profit and Loss.

Internally generated: Research and development

a) Expenditure on research activities is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

b) Development expenditure is capitalised as part of the cost of the resulting intangible asset only if the expenditure can be
measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable,
and the Group intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. Otherwise, it is
recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is measured at cost less accumulated
amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

g. Impairment

i. Impairment of financial instruments

The Group recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortised cost

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost are credit‑impaired. A
financial asset is ‘credit‑impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash
flows of the financial asset have occurred.

The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. Lifetime expected credit losses
are the expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In
all cases, the maximum period considered when estimating expected credit losses is the maximum contractual period over
which the Group is exposed to credit risk.

When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when
estimating expected credit losses, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available
without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s
historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information.
126
Minda Industries Limited
Notes forming part of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2019
(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

The Group assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 30 days past due. The
Group considers a financial asset to be in default when the financial asset is 90 days or more past due.

Measurement of expected credit losses

Expected credit losses are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all
cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the Group in accordance with the contract and the cash flows
that the Group expects to receive).

Presentation of allowance for expected credit losses in the balance sheet

Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortised cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets.

Write-off

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic
prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of
income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are
written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of
amounts due.

ii. Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to
determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is
estimated. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment.

For impairment testing, assets that do not generate independent cash inflows are grouped together into cash-generating units
(CGUs). Each CGU represents the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash
inflows of other assets or CGUs.

Goodwill arising from a business combination is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the
synergies of the combination.

The recoverable amount of a CGU (or an individual asset) is the higher of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell.
Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that
reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the CGU (or the asset).

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. Impairment loss recognised in respect of a
CGU is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying
amounts of the other assets of the CGU (or group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not subsequently reversed. In respect of other assets for which impairment loss
has been recognised in prior periods, the Group reviews at each reporting date whether there is any indication that the loss has
decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the
recoverable amount. Such a reversal is made only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying
amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

h. Borrowing cost

Borrowing costs are interest and other costs (including exchange differences relating to foreign currency borrowings to the extent
that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs) incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs
directly attributable to acquisition or construction of an asset which necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for
their intended use are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the
period in which they are incurred.

i. Leases

i. Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease

At inception of a contract, the Group determines whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The contract is, or contains, a lease if
the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset or assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration,
even if that right is not explicitly specified in a contract.
At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease
components, the Group separates payments and other consideration required by the contract into those for each lease component on
the basis of their relative stand-alone price and those for non-lease components on the basis of their relative aggregate stand-alone
price. If the Group concludes that it is impracticable to separate the payments reliably, then right-of-use asset and Lease liability are
recognised at an amount equal to the present value of future lease payments; subsequently the liability is reduced as payments are
made and an imputed finance cost on the liability is recognised using the Group’s incremental borrowing rate.

The previous determination pursuant to Ind AS 17 and its ‘Appendix C’ of whether a contract is a lease has been maintained for
existing contracts.

ii. Group as a lessee

At inception, the Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. This assessment involves the exercise of judgement about
whether it depends on an identified asset, whether the Group obtains substantially all the economic benefits from the use of that asset,
and whether the Group has the right to direct the use of that asset.

The Group has elected to separate lease and non-lease components of contracts, wherever possible.

The Group recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability at the transition date/ lease commencement date. The right-of-
use asset is initially measured based on the present value of future lease payments, plus initial direct costs, and cost to dismantle and
remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, and lease payments made at or before
the commencement date, less any incentives received. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the
useful life of the underlying asset. The right-of-use asset is subject to testing for impairment if there is an indicator for impairment.

At the commencement date, Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the future lease payments that are not yet paid
at that date discounted using interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental
borrowing rate. Generally, the Group’s uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The lease liability is measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a
change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value
guarantee, or if the Group changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. When the
lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is
recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

Contingent rents payments are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. Lease payments generally include
fixed payments and variable payments that depend on an index (such as an inflation index). When the lease contains an extension or
purchase option that the Group considers reasonably certain to be exercised, the cost of the option is included in the lease payments.

The Group presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property and lease liabilities in separately from
other assets/liabilities in the balance sheet.

The Group has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases where the total lease term is less than or
equal to 12 months, or for leases of low value assets. The payments for such leases are recognized in the Consolidated Statement
of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term

iii. Group as a Lessor


Leases in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying assets are
classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant
lease unless the payments are structured to increase in line with the general inflation to compensate for the lessor’s expected
inflationary cost increase. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying
amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as
revenue in the period in which they are earned.

Leases are classified as finance leases when substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of underlying asset is
transferred from the Group to the lessee. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the Group’s
net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return
on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.128

j. Inventories

Inventories which comprise raw materials, work-in-progress, finished goods, stock-in-trade, stores and spares, and loose
tools are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories
to their present location and condition.

In determining the cost, weighted average cost method is used. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in
progress, fixed production overheads are allocated on the basis of normal capacity of production facilities.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion
and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

The net realisable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished products.
Raw materials and other supplies held for use in the production of finished products are not written down below cost except
in cases where material prices have declined and it is estimated that the cost of the finished products will exceed their net
realisable value.

The comparison of cost and net realisable value is made on an item-by-item basis.

Inventories in transit are valued at cost.

k. Revenue recognition

(i) Revenue from contract with customer

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an
amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The
Group has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements, because it typically controls the goods or
services before transferring them to the customer.

Sale of goods (including moulds and scrap)

Revenue from sale of goods is recognised at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer, generally
on delivery of the equipment. The normal credit term is 30 to 90 days upon delivery.

The Group considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion
of the transaction price needs to be allocated (e.g., warranties, customer loyalty points). In determining the transaction price for
the sale of equipment, the Group considers the effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing
components, non-cash consideration, and consideration payable to the customer (if any). Revenue is measured based on the
transaction price, which is the consideration, adjusted for volume discounts, service level credits, performance bonuses, price
concessions and incentives, if any, as specified in the contract with the customer.

Variable Consideration

If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the Group estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be
entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customers. Where customers are provided with discounts, rebates, etc., such
discounts and rebates will give rise to variable consideration. The Group follows the most likely amount method in estimating the
amount of variable consideration.

(ii) Management fees, designing fees and service revenue is recognized on an accrual basis as and when the services are rendered
in accordance with the terms of the underlying contract.
(iii) Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
(iv) Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive dividend is established.

(v) Royalty income is recognized based on the terms of the underlying agreement.

(vi) Claims lodged with insurance companies are accounted for on an accrual basis, to the extent these are measurable and the
ultimate collection is reasonably certain.

(vii) Export entitlement under Duty Entitlement Pass Book Scheme (‘DEPB’) is recognized on accrual basis and when the right
to entitlement has been established. 129

Contract balances

Contract assets
A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Group
performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due,
a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is conditional.

Trade receivables
A receivable represents the Group’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time
is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in section (b)
Financial instruments – initial recognition and subsequent measurement.

Contract liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received
consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Group
transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is
due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Group performs under the contract.

l. Government grants

Government grants are recognized where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all the attached
conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income on a systematic
basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. When the grant relates to an
asset, it is recognized as income in equal amounts over the expected useful life of the related asset.

When the Group receives grants of non-monetary assets, the assets and the grant are recorded at fair value amounts and
released to profit or loss over the expected useful life in a pattern of consumption of the benefit of the underlying asset.
When loans or similar assistance are provided by Governments or related institutions, with an interest rate below the
current applicable market rate, the effect of this favourable interest is regarded as Government grant. The loan or assistance
is initially recognized and measured at fair value and the Government grant is measured as the difference between the
initial carrying value of the loan and the proceeds received. The loan is subsequently measured as per the accounting
policy applicable to financial liabilities.

m. Provisions (other than employee benefits)

(i) General

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) that can
be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the
effect of time value of money is material provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows (representing
the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date) at a pre-tax rate that
reflects the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used , the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is
recognized as a finance cost.

(ii) Warranties

Warranty costs are estimated on the basis of a technical evaluation and past experience. Provision is made for estimated
liability in respect of warranty costs in the year of sale of goods and is included in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and
Loss. The estimates used for accounting for warranty costs are reviewed periodically and revisions are made, as and when
required.

n. Retirement and other employee benefits

(i) Short term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is
provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid e.g., under short-term cash bonus, if the Group has a
present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the
amount of obligation can be estimated reliably.

(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

(ii) Share-based payment transactions (Equity settled)

The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an
appropriate valuation model. That cost is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in employee stock option
(ESO) reserves in other equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled in
employee benefits expense.
The amount recognised as expense is based on the estimate of the number of awards for which the related service and non-
market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the
number of awards that do meet the related service and non-market vesting conditions at the vesting date. For share-based
payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect
such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.

(iii) Defined contribution plans

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays specified contributions to a
separate entity and has no obligation to pay any further amounts. The Group makes specified monthly contributions
towards employee provident fund, employee state insurance corporation and superannuation funds which is a defined
contribution plan. The Group’s contribution is recognized as an expense in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss
during the period in which the employee renders the related service.
Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is
available.

(iv) Defined benefit plans

The Group’s gratuity benefit scheme is a defined benefit plan. The Group’s net obligation in respect of a defined benefit
plan is calculated by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the
current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The fair value of plan assets is reduced
from the gross obligation under the defined benefit plans, to recognise the obligation on net basis. The calculation of the
obligation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method.
Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets
(excluding interest), are recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to other equity
through OCI in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent period.

The Group determines the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit liability (asset) for the period by applying
the discount rate used to measure the defined benefit obligation at the beginning of the annual period to the then-net
defined benefit liability (asset), taking into account any changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) during the period as
a result of contributions and benefit payments. Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are
recognised in profit or loss.

When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past
service (‘past service cost’ or ‘past service gain’) or the gain or loss on curtailment is recognised immediately in profit or
loss. The Group recognises gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.

(v) Other long term employee benefits

Compensated absences
The employees can carry-forward a portion of the unutilised accrued compensated absences and utilise it in future service
periods or receive cash compensation on termination of employment. Since the compensated absences do not fall due
wholly within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service and are also not
expected to be utilized wholly within twelve months after the end of such period, the benefit to such extent is classified as
a long-term employee benefit. The Group records an obligation for such compensated absences in the period in which
the employee renders the services that increase this entitlement. The obligation is measured on the basis of independent
actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

131

(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

(vi) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier of when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and
when the Group recognises costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of
the reporting date, then they are discounted.

o. Income taxes

Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to an item
recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

(i) Current tax

Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment
to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax reflects the best estimate of the tax
amount expected to be paid or received after considering the uncertainty, if any, related to income taxes. It is measured
using tax rates (and tax laws) enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised
amounts, and it is intended to realise the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.

Tax benefits of deductions earned on exercise of employee stock options in excess of compensation charged to income are
credited to securities premium.

(ii) Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is also recognised in
respect of carried forward tax losses and tax credits. Deferred tax is not recognised for:

- temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that affects neither
accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction;

- temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures to the extent that the Group is able
to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the
foreseeable future; and

- taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which
they can be used. The existence of unused tax losses is strong evidence that future taxable profit may not be available.
Therefore, in case of a history of recent losses, the Group recognises a deferred tax asset only to the extent that it has
sufficient taxable temporary differences or there is convincing other evidence that sufficient taxable profit will be available
against which such deferred tax asset can be realised. Deferred tax assets – unrecognised or recognised, are reviewed at
each reporting date and are recognised/ reduced to the extent that it is probable/ no longer probable respectively that the
related tax benefit will be realised.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is
settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group
expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets,
and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they
intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised
simultaneously.

132
Minda Industries Limited
Notes forming part of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2019
(All amounts in ₹crores, unless otherwise stated)

Deferred tax in respect of timing differences which reverse after the tax holiday period is recognized in the year in which the
timing differences originate.

Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss as current tax for
the year. The deferred tax asset is recognised for MAT credit available only to the extent that it is probable that the Group
will pay normal income tax during the specified period, i.e., the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried
forward. In the year in which the Group recognizes MAT credit as an asset, it is created by way of credit to the
Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss and shown as part of deferred tax asset. The Group reviews the “MAT credit
entitlement” asset at each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent that it is no longer probable that it will pay
normal tax during the specified period.

p. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by
the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average numbers of equity shares
outstanding during the year are adjusted for events of bonus issue and share split that have changed the numbers of equity
share outstanding, without a corresponding changes in resources.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity
shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive
potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are deemed to be converted as of the beginning of the period,
unless they have been issued at a later date.

q. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an
original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short term deposits, as defined
above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Group’s cash management.

r. Cash dividend to equity holders

The Company recognises a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the parent when the
distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporate laws in
India, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly
in equity.

Non-cash distributions are measured at the fair value of the assets to be distributed with fair value re-measurement
recognised directly in equity.

Upon distribution of non-cash assets, any difference between the carrying amount of the liability and the carrying amount
of the assets distributed is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.

s. Application of new and revised standards

Ind AS 116- leases


The Group has adopted Ind AS 116 Leases with effect from 1 April 2019 under the modified retrospective approach, utilizing
the practical expedient to not reassess whether a contract contains a lease. Applying this approach, the comparative information
for the 2018-19 financial year has not been restated. This standard replaces Ind AS 17 and sets out the principles for the
recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. Ind AS 116 introduces a single lease accounting model for
lessees and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for almost all leases and therefore resulted in recognition of right-
of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities at 1 April 2019. This standard is mandatory for the accounting period beginning
on 1 April 2019. The Group has elected for recognition exemption for short term leases and leases for which the underlying
asset is of low value.

t. Recently issued accounting pronouncements

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards. There is no such
notification which would have been applicable from 1 April 2020.

40 During the year 2002-03, the Director, Town and Country Planning, Chandigarh issued a demand notice on the Parent Company amounting to ₹ 0.39 crore
towards revised CLU (change of land use) charges for the land situated at Village Nawada Fatehpur, P.O. Sikanderpur Badda, Gurugram, and Haryana
(Manesar land). The Parent Company paid ₹0.02 crore and had also filed a Special Leave Petition (SLP) with the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, basis
which a leave had been granted. Further, the Parent Company had deposited ₹0.09 crore as under protest with the authorities. During the previous years, the
Parent Company had filed a writ petition with the High Court of Punjab and Haryana in order to cancel the demand notice and obtain a stay on the balance
demand. Further, the Parent Company had withdrawn the petition and accordingly had asked Town and Country Planning, Chandigarh to review and waive
of the liability of remaining balance of ₹0.28 crore and the interest thereon amounting to ₹0.50 crore (previous year ₹0.47 crore) towards revised CLU
charges after adjusting the amount of ₹0.11 crore paid earlier.

The Parent Company had applied for grant of license under ‘Affordable Housing Policy- 2013’ on the land measuring 5 acres in Manesar land and paid
scrutiny fee (non-refundable) amounting to ₹0.03 crore in this respect, which was received during the previous year. The Parent Company had paid ₹0.43

41 Segment information

Segment information is prepared in conformity with the accounting policies adopted for preparing and presenting the financial statements of the Group as a
whole.

As the Group’s business activity primarily falls within a single business segment i.e. auto components including electrical parts and its accessories and
ancillary services as primary segment, thus there are no additional disclosures to be provided under Ind AS 108 – ‘Operating Segments’. The management
considers that the various goods and services provided by the Group constitutes single business segment, since the risk and rewards from these services are
not different from one another.

42 Disclosure pursuant to Ind AS 19 on “Employee Benefits”

A. Defined benefit plan (Gratuity)

Gratuity is payable to all eligible employees of the Group on retirement/exit, death or permanent disablement in terms of the provisions of the Payment of
Gratuity Act, 1972.

(i) Risk exposure


Inherent risk
The plan is defined benefit in nature which is sponsored by the Group and hence it underwrites all the risks pertaining to the plan. In particular, this exposes
the Group to actuarial risk such as adverse salary growth, change in demographic experience, inadequate return on underlying plan assets. This may result in
an increase in cost of providing these benefits to employees in future. Since the benefits are lump sum in nature, the plan is not subject to any longevity risks.

165
Minda Industries Limited
Notes forming part of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2020
(All amounts in ₹ crores, unless otherwise stated)

Salary inflation risk


Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

Demographic risk
This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of
these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting
criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per
year as compared to a long service employee.

46 Lease
(i) Effective 01 April 2019, the Group adopted Ind AS 116 “Leases”, applied to all lease contracts existing on 01 April 2019 using the modified retrospective
method and has taken the cumulative adjustment to retained earnings as on the date of initial application. Accordingly, the Group is not required to restate the
comparative information.

On 01 April 2019, the Group has recognised a lease liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments and Right-of-Use (ROU) assets at
its carrying amount as if the standard had been applied since the lease commencement date, but discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate as
at 01 April 2019. This has resulted in recognizing a "Right of use assets" of Rs. 95.77 Crores and a corresponding "Lease liability" of Rs. 110.62 Crores by
adjusting retained earnings net of taxes of Rs. 10.10 Crores as on 01 April 2019. In respect of leases that were classified as finance leases, on applying Ind
AS 17, Rs. 26.22 Crores have been reclassified from "Property, plant & equipment" to "Right of use asset".

Consequently, in the statement of profit and loss for the current period, the nature of expenses in respect of operating leases has changed from “Rent” in
previous period to “Depreciation and amortisation expense” for the right of use assets and “Finance cost” for interest accrued on lease liability. As a result the
“Rent”, “Depreciation and amortisation expense” and “Finance cost” of the current period is not comparable to the earlier periods.

To the extent the performance of the current period is not comparable with earlier period results, the reconciliation of above effect on consolidated statement
of profit and loss for the quarter and year ended 31 March 2020 is as under:

Year ended 31
March 2020 Changes due to Ind AS Year ended 31 March

(ii) Interest rate risk


Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The
Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates, which exposes the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. During 31
March 2020 and 31 March 2019, the Group’s borrowings at variable rate were mainly denominated in INR, EURO and USD.

The Group's fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost.

The exposure of the Group’s borrowing to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period are as follows:

Particulars As at 31 March 2020 As at 31 March 2019


Variable rate borrowings 1,036.07 929.29
Fixed rate borrowings 139.95 151.93
Total 1,176.02 1,081.23

Sensitivity analysis

For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for
the whole year.

Impact on profit before tax


Particulars For the year ended For the year ended
31 March 2020 31 March 2019
Increase by 0.5% (5.18) (4.65)
Decrease by 0.5% 5.18 4.65

(iii) Commodity price risks


Fluctuation in commodity price in market affects directly or indirectly the price of raw material and components used by the Group. The Group sells its
products mainly to auto makers (Original Equipment Manufacturer) whereby there is a regular negotiation / adjustment of prices on the basis of changes
in commodity prices.

b) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group may not be able to meet its present and future cash and collateral obligations without incurring unacceptable
losses. The Group’s objective is to, at all times maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and collateral requirements. The Group closely
monitors its liquidity position and deploys a robust cash management system. It maintains adequate sources of financing including loans from banks at an
optimised cost.

Floating rate As per Note 21 As per Note 21
- Expiring within one year (cash credit and other facilities) 224.89 54.98

c) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations towards
the Group and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers and deposits with banking institutions. The maximum amount of the credit
exposure is equal to the carrying amounts of these receivables.

The Group has developed guidelines for the management of credit risk from trade receivables. The Group’s primary customers are major automobile
manufacturers (OEMs) with good credit ratings. All clients are subjected to credit assessments as a precautionary measure, and the adherence of all
clients to payment due dates is monitored on an on-going basis, thereby practically eliminating the risk of default. The Group has deposited liquid funds at
various banking institutions. No impairment loss is considered necessary in respect of fixed deposits that are with recognised commercial banks and are
not past due over past years.

exceptional items plus depreciation and amortization expense excluding share of profit/ loss of
associates/ joint venture plus finance costs minus other income). The Group’s strategy is to ensure
that the Net Debt to EBITDA is managed at an optimal level considering the above factors. The Net

financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Discount rate used in determining fair value


The interest rate used to discount estimated future cash flows, where applicable, are based on the incremental borrowing rate of borrower which in case of financial liabilities is average market cost of
borrowings of the Group and in case of financial asset is the average market rate of similar credit rated instrument. The Group maintains policies and procedures to value financial assets or financial
liabilities using the best and most relevant data available.

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or
liquidation sale.
Investment in unquoted equity shares amount to ₹ 0.10 crores ( ₹ 0.10 crores 31 March 2019) is valued at fair value (level 3). There is no movement in valuation of such investment during the year
and previous year. Further, provision for impairment on investment has been created during the year amounting to ₹ 0.07 crores (refer note 4).

56. Goodwill amounting to Rs. 155.85 crores allocated to two subsidiaries, Mindarika Private Limited and iSYS RTS GmbH is evaluated for impairment. The
recoverable amount of these cash generating units have been determined based on value in use model. Value in use has been determined based on future sales
estimates, margins, growth rate, discount rate, etc. As at 31 March 2020, the estimated cash flows for a period of 5 years were developed using internal
forecasts, and weighted average cost of capital of 11.50% to 18.00%. The management believes that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions
would not cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit.

The remaining goodwill (related to different cash generating units individually immaterial) has been evaluated based on the cash flow forecasts of the related
CGUs and the recoverable amounts of these CGUs exceeded their carrying amounts.

57 Pursuant to the Scheme of Amalgamation (‘Scheme’) under the provisions of Section 230 to 232 of the Companies Act, 2013, for amalgamation of wholly

(together referred to as “transferor companies”), with Minda Industries Limited (“Transferee Company” or “the Parent Company”) as approved by the Hon’ble
National Company Law Tribunal vide its order dated 01 June 2020 with the appointed date of 1 April 2019, all the assets, liabilities, reserves and surplus of the
transferor companies have been transferred to and vested in the Company with effect from this date at their carrying values. The Company is in the process of
obtaining the certified copy of the Order by NCLT in this regard and shall file the order copy with ROC, Delhi in due course. The Parent Company has given
effect to the scheme in the financial statements for the year 2019-20 as per the requirements of Appendix C to Ind AS 103 “Business Combination”.

Connect Private Limited (Transferor Company) with Minda Industries Limited (Transferee Company) subject to necessary approval(s) of shareholders,

59 Pursuant to Regulation 30 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligation and Disclosure Requirements) Regulation, 2015, as amended, the

60 Impact of Covid-19 on Consolidated Financial Statements:


In view of the pandemic relating to COVID-19, the Group has considered internal and external information and has performed an analysis based on current
estimates while assessing the recoverability of investments, property plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, Goodwill, trade receivables, other current and
financial assets, for any possible impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Group has also assessed the impact of this whole situation on its capital
and financial resources, profitability, liquidity position, internal financial reporting controls etc. and is of the view that based on its present assessment this
situation does not materially impact the consolidated financial statements. Further, Reserve Bank of India has granted relief to borrowers by way of moratorium
of interest and principal instalments falling due to banks and financial institutions. This will largely mitigate any stress on cash flows.
However, the actual impact of COVID19 on the consolidated financial statement may differ from that estimated due to unforeseen circumstances and the
Group will continue to closely monitor any material changes to future economic conditions.

The notes referred to above form an integral part of the consolidated financial statements

MATERIAL DEVELOPMENTS

Except as stated in this Letter of Offer and as disclosed below, to our knowledge, no circumstances
have arisen since March 31, 2020, which materially and adversely affect or are likely to affect our
operations, performance, prospects or profitability, or the value of our assets or our ability to pay
material liabilities.

(i) Outbreak of COVID 2019:

The World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-2019 as a public health emergency
of international concern on January 30, 2020 and a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The Government of
India announced a nation-wide lockdown on March 24, 2020. The spread of COVID-2019 and the
recent developments surrounding the global pandemic have had, and continue to have, a material
adverse effect on the Company’s business. The nation-wide lockdown has impacted the Company
sales as the Company’s products do not constitute “essential products” and the Company’s principal
channels of sale were not allowed to function as part of the lockdown imposed by the Government of
India and relevant state governments and inflicting adverse impact on revenue and profitability. Such
restrictions are being lifted in a staggered manner as the process of easing the lockdown is ongoing.
However, the duration that the Company might take to normalise operations in the manufacturing
facilities as well as other parts of the Company supply chains is uncertain.

(ii) Issuance of commercial papers:

The Company has issued its commercial paper:-

a) of ₹ 50 Crores (ISIN: INE405E14091) maturing on September 17, 2020 with allotment date
June 19, 2020 (listed on National Stock Exchange of India Limited on June 22, 2020);
b) of ₹ 25 Crores (ISIN: INE405E14109) maturing on October 26, 2020 with allotment date July
28, 2020 (unlisted); and
c) of ₹ 25 Crores (ISIN: INE405E14117) maturing on December 5, 2020 with allotment date
August 7, 2020 (listed on National Stock Exchange of India Limited on August 10, 2020).

Equity Shareholders with zero entitlement, would be given preference in allotment of one
additional Rights Equity Share each if they apply for additional Rights Equity Shares.
Allotment under this head shall be considered if there are any unsubscribed Rights Equity

discretion of our Board in consultation with the Designated Stock Exchange, as a part of this
Issue and will not be a preferential allotment.

(d) Allotment to Renouncees who having applied for all the Rights Equity Shares renounced in
their favour, have applied for additional Rights Equity Shares provided there is surplus

beneficiary account should carry the name of the holder in the same manner as is registered in
the records of our Company. In the case of joint holding, the beneficiary account should be
opened carrying the names of the holders in the same order as registered in the records of our
Company). In case of Investors having various folios in our Company with different joint
holders, the Investors will have to open separate accounts for such holdings. Those Investors
who have already opened such beneficiary account(s) need not adhere to this step.

2. It should be ensured that the depository account is in the name(s) of the Investors and the
names are in the same order as in the records of our Company or the Depositories.

3. The responsibility for correctness of information filled in the Application Form vis-a-vis such
information with the Investor’s depository participant, would rest with the Investor. Investors
should ensure that the names of the Investors and the order in which they appear in
Application Form should be the same as registered with the Investor’s depository participant.

4. If incomplete or incorrect beneficiary account details are given in the Application Form, the
Investor will not get any Rights Equity Shares and the Application Form will be rejected.

5. The Rights Equity Shares will be allotted to Applicants only in dematerialized form and
would be directly credited to the beneficiary account as given in the Application Form after
verification or demat suspense account (pending receipt of demat account details for resident

Applicant’s depository participant will provide to him the confirmation of the credit of such
Rights Equity Shares to the Applicant’s depository account.

Restrictions on foreign ownership of Indian securities

Foreign investment in Indian securities is regulated through the Industrial Policy, 1991, of the
Government of India and FEMA. While the Industrial Policy, 1991, of the Government of India,
prescribes the limits and the conditions subject to which foreign investment can be made in different
sectors of the Indian economy, FEMA regulates the precise manner in which such investment may be
made. The Union Cabinet, as provided in the Cabinet Press Release dated May 24, 2017, has given its
approval for phasing out the FIPB. Accordingly, the process for foreign direct investment (“FDI”)
and approval from the Government of India will now be handled by the concerned ministries or
departments, in consultation with the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade,
Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India (formerly known as the Department of
Industrial Policy and Promotion) (“DPIIT”), Ministry of Finance, Department of Economic Affairs,
FIPB section, through a memorandum dated June 5, 2017, has notified the specific ministries handling
relevant sectors.

The Government has, from time to time, made policy pronouncements on FDI through press notes and
press releases. The DPIIT issued the Consolidated FDI Policy Circular of 2017 (“FDI Circular
2017”), which, with effect from August 28, 2017, consolidated and superseded all previous press
notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DPIIT that were in force and effect as on
August 28, 2017. The Government proposes to update the consolidated circular on FDI policy once
every year and therefore, FDI Circular 2017 will be valid until the DPIIT issues an updated circular.

The Government of India has from time to time made policy pronouncements on FDI through press
notes and press releases which are notified by RBI as amendments to FEMA. In case of any conflict
between FEMA and such policy pronouncements, FEMA prevails. The Consolidated FDI Policy,
issued by the DPIIT, consolidates the policy framework in place as on August 27, 2017, and
supersedes all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications on FDI issued by the DPIIT that
were in force and effect as on August 27, 2017. The Government proposes to update the consolidated
circular on FDI Policy once every year and therefore the Consolidated FDI Policy will be valid until
the DPIIT issues an updated circular.

The transfer of shares between an Indian resident and a non-resident does not require the prior
approval of RBI, provided that (i) the activities of the investee company falls under the automatic
route as provided in the FDI Policy and FEMA and transfer does not attract the provisions of the

258
SEBI Takeover Regulations; (ii) the non- resident shareholding is within the sectoral limits under the
FDI Policy; and (iii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by SEBI and RBI.

Please also note that pursuant to Circular No. 14 dated September 16, 2003 issued by RBI, Overseas
Corporate Bodies (“OCBs”) have been derecognized as an eligible class of investors and RBI has
subsequently issued the Foreign Exchange Management (Withdrawal of General Permission to
Overseas Corporate Bodies (OCBs)) Regulations, 2003. Any Investor being an OCB is required not to
be under the adverse notice of RBI and to obtain prior approval from RBI for applying in this Issue.

The above information is given for the benefit of the Applicants / Investors. Our Company and the
Lead Managers are not liable for any amendments or modification or changes in applicable laws or
regulations, which may occur after the date of this Letter of Offer. Investors are advised to make their
independent investigations and ensure that the number of Equity Shares applied for do not exceed the
applicable limits under laws or regulations.
