A. M. Naik
Chairman & Managing Director
Dear Shareholders
A multiplicity of business, economic and political factors
made the year gone by among the most challenging in
recent times. The global economy is seeking to recover from
uncertainties centred on the European Union. Domestically,
a deterioration in macroeconomic indicators and a marked
deceleration in the investment momentum aggravated
bearish sentiments in the capital markets. Infrastructure
sectors have been hampered by resource constraints and
other issues. Investment decisions, as a result, have seen
prolonged deferment, with only a few projects being
awarded.
It is heartening, however, that the intrinsic strengths and
embedded characteristics of the Indian economy still remain
positive. GDP growth, at 6.5%, though sharply down from
the levels that prevailed a couple of years back, still has the
potential to revive.
Performance Overview
Against this backdrop, your Company has successfully
steered a steady course and consolidated its position as
India’s leading E&C player. Fresh Order Inflows at ` 70,574
Cr enabled the year-end unexecuted Order Book position
to increase by 11% to ` 145,723 Cr, an all-time high for
the Company. The slowdown in orders from the domestic
market was partially compensated by growth in international
orders, mainly from the Middle East region. International
orders accounted for 18% of the full year’s Order Inflow.
L&T ensured on-track execution of projects that have
been committed for delivery. This is reflected in the robust
revenue of ` 53,171 Cr, an increase of 21% over FY11. Profit
after tax, excluding exceptional and extraordinary items
at ` 4,413 Cr, translates to an increase of 20% over the
previous year.
At the group level, your Company recorded net revenues of
` 64,313 Cr, an increase of 24% over FY11. Consolidated
1
PAT, excluding exceptional and extraordinary items rose by
10% to ` 4,649 Cr during FY12.
class L&T Institute of Project Management accredited by
PMI of USA, and supports multiple CSTI (Construction Skill
Training Institutes) across the country.
It gives me pleasure to announce that your Company has
recommended a dividend of ` 16.50 per equity share on a
face value of ` 2 per share for the year. The corresponding
dividend during the previous fiscal stood at ` 14.50 per
equity share.
Internationalisation
Your Company is augmenting its presence in existing
international markets such as Middle East and South
East Asia Regions and expanding its footprints in new
geographies like Australia, CIS and select African countries.
New offices have been set up at key locations such as Perth
and Istanbul. A multi-cultural leadership team is being built
through induction of expatriates with local knowledge,
customer intimacy and domain expertise.
Capacity Augmentation
Over the last few years, your Company has built
manufacturing capacities in areas of strategic significance
and in low cost regions. Production at the state of the
art manufacturing facilities for supercritical boilers and
turbines, which were commissioned over a year ago,
has been streamlined - thus enhancing productivity. This
has been achieved through increased indigenisation of
manufacturing processes. Facilities for manufacture of
critical piping and Electrostatic Precipitators have recently
been commissioned. A new switchgear manufacturing unit
has been set up in Vadodara which is expected to lower cost
of production. Greenfield and brownfield expansion of the
manufacturing units for Low and Medium voltage electrical
control panel are nearing completion in Ahmednagar
(Maharashtra) and Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu). A shipyard
capable of manufacturing a variety of specialised defence
and commercial vessels is under commissioning. While some
of the investments are capital intensive, the Company sees
long term prospects for sustainable growth in these areas.
Talent Management
People are critical to L&T’s growth and enduring success.
Your Company has institutionalized a 5 Step Leadership
Development initiative in association with a global
consultancy firm to ensure a robust leadership pipeline. An
expanded Leadership Development Academy forms a pivotal
resource for this program. To address the needs of capability
building at multiple levels, your Company also runs a world
2
Sustainable Development
Sustainability remains high on your Company’s agenda going
forward. The Company is working actively on the ‘green’
front, with considerable headway in energy conservation,
renewable energy usage, water conservation and waste
management. On the social development front, our thrust
areas are mother & child health, education and skill building.
In the last two years, your Company’s sustainability reporting
secured various national and international accolades,
recognizing its significant efforts in this area.
Succession
To address demands of the changing business environment
and future growth prospects, the Board of your Company
decided to further strengthen the top leadership of the
Company by elevating Mr K. Venkataramanan as CEO and
Managing Director with effect from April 1, 2012. This will
enable the Executive Chairman to focus on value creation
through portfolio restructuring, institutionalising the
Independent Company structure, mentoring the leadership
team to face global challenges and implementing the
strategic plans as laid out in ‘Lakshya 2016’. A younger
generation of Directors have been brought on the Board to
ensure long term sustainable leadership.
Outlook
Despite the challenging macro environment, your
Company’s range of offerings straddling multiple areas
in the infrastructure and energy sectors allows sighting
of opportunities which could fructify into project awards.
Some segments within these sectors holding out promise
of growth in FY13 are:
1 Infrastructure
a Roads – the program of road building continues and
in FY13, NHAI is likely to bid over 8,000 km of road
contracts, some through construction awards and the
majority through BOT concessions.
b Metro and Mono Rail – a number of Tier-1 and Tier-2
cities have kick-started projects to implement metro
and / or mono rail systems, since this has proven to be
one of the best solutions for decongesting urban traffic.
The aggregate of these prospects presents a large and
profitable basket of opportunities.
c Railways Business – With the Dedicated Freight Corridor
taking shape, large opportunities are expected to
materialise commencing FY13. Indian Railways is also
augmenting and upgrading its network, which gives rise
to business potential in this area.
d Water Projects – Standard water management facilities
(bulk transmission, water treatment, effluent treatment,
etc) as well as advanced water solutions such as
Desalination and Reverse Osmosis plants provide good
opportunity for growth. Apart from domestic markets,
your Company expects good prospects in Qatar, Saudi
Arabia, UAE and Oman by offering total water solutions.
e Urban Infrastructure – Strong drivers such as population
density, high nominal GDP growth, high domestic
savings and increasing aspiration levels are driving an
urban transformation. This is opening up opportunities
in areas of residential housing, commercial office space,
hotels, hospitals, educational institutions and shopping
complexes in Tier 1, 2 & 3 cities.
f Airports – The Aviation industry seems to be poised
for sustained growth with increasing trends of both
passenger and cargo traffic, annually. Opportunities
are opening up with expansion plans of many
non-metro airports in India and internationally
in the Middle East, Asia, Africa and South East Asia.
g International Markets – Your Company is targeting the
Middle East and other Asian markets for infrastructure
business in areas such as Airports, Roads, Bridges, Water
Treatment and Power Transmission.
2
Heavy Engineering
Your Company is one of the world’s leading manufacturers
of the technology-intensive custom-built equipment and
expects to continue its growth in process equipment in
FY13. Although the unfortunate Fukushima nuclear
incident in Japan has reduced the pace of growth in
this sector, your Company is targeting international
prospects such as Spent Fuel storage equipment and
decommissioning of Generation II plants. The defence
sector shows good promise in the medium to long term -
both in land and marine business segments. The Defence
Offset Programme and recent Government initiatives
for encouraging private sector for partnering with
Defence Public Sector Undertakings provide a range
of opportunities.
Hydrocarbon
India’s efforts to achieve minimum energy security can
only be successful through investment in development
of upstream assets. While capex spends on downstream
facilities creation is likely to remain modest for some
time, investment in deep sea projects and new pipeline
networks are likely generate opportunity. Fertiliser
capex is likely to revive in FY13 and should provide
promising business opportunities. Your Company’s
thrust on international markets has yielded results, with
several prestigious international project orders during
the year. In addition to GCC markets, your Company is
targeting select opportunities in new geographies like
South East Asia, Australia, Africa & CIS through local
country presence, strategic partnerships, etc.
Thermal Power
While power is one of the largest bottlenecks to
economic growth, investment decisions to set up fresh
capacity for coal and gas fired power plants remain
uncertain due to constraints of coal / gas, land, water,
environment clearance and long term finance. While
boiler and turbine manufacturing capacities are likely
to be well utilised for the current year, improved order
inflow is critical for a robust FY14. Your Company,
however, is geared to leverage its capabilities in the
power sector both in India and nearby countries.
Power Transmission & Distribution
Your Company has demonstrated an impressive order
book growth in FY12 both in domestic and international
markets, backed by strong EPC, fabrication,
testing and execution capabilities. The increased
investments in India by government undertakings and
strengthening of transmission grids in GCC countries
provide significant business opportunities for power
transmission and distribution business.
Metallurgical & Material Handling
The short term outlook in this area remains challenging
due to complexities of present mining policies, delays
in land acquisition and environmental clearances.
The demand, however, for metals in the medium to

Financial Services
L&T Finance Holdings Ltd. made its debut in Equity
Capital Markets in FY12 through a maiden IPO which
received overwhelming response from investors. The
business continued its growth momentum during
FY12 with a 42% growth in its consolidated Total
Income and a growth of 16% in Profits after Tax. The
Loans and advances extended by the Financial Services
Companies have grown by 39% and stands at ` 25,442
Cr at end-FY12. The Financial Services group is now a
broad-based, diversified Financial Services provider and
is benefiting from a solid growth platform.
11
Developmental Projects
Your company has built a significant portfolio of assets
covering concessions, mainly in roads, ports, power
generation and Metro rail. The majority of projects
are in various stages of completion. While returns on
developmental projects are typically back-ended, your
Company would be seeking to unlock value through
churning of mature assets within the portfolio and
through equity partnership.
Before I conclude, I would like to thank all L&T-ites for
their unstinted support and commitment during the
challenging yet exciting period. I would also like to thank
my fellow Board members for the support that they have
unconditionally extended. I also extend my gratitude
to our customers, supply chain partners and all other
stakeholders for their continuous support. We remain
committed to stakeholder value creation and will live up
to the trust reposed in us.
Thank you.

long term is expected to grow, driven by capex plans
by Integrated Steel Players, increased consumption
and investments in infrastructure. Material handling
prospects are also looking up in areas of power, mining,
steel and ports.
10
Electrical & Automation
Although sluggish offtake from industrial sectors led to
muted overall growth in FY12, agriculture and buildings
sectors are providing growth opportunities to this
business. Business is focusing on forging ahead with
world class contemporary products, and has filed 162
patent applications in FY12. The Electrical & Automation
business can expect an upward momentum when the
general economy improves.
Machinery & Industrial Products
Machinery & Industrial Products business has been
affected by general slowdown, deceleration in industrial
activity, and restrictions on mining. In Industrial Products,
valves maintained the positive trend in FY12, registering
a healthy growth in order inflow and sales. Sustained
oil & gas project activities in the Middle East, North
Africa and Australia provide good opportunities. The
Construction Machinery Business successfully sustained
the performance of the preceding year in a market
which witnessed intense competition. The Business Unit
has maintained its leadership position in the premium
market segment and strengthened its position with new
offerings in Large Size Mining Equipment.
Information Technology & Integrated Engineering
Services
L&T Infotech, a wholly owned subsidiary, grew at 30%
Y-o-Y on a consolidated basis with over 90% of its
revenues from overseas clients. Profit after Tax grew
by 33% in spite of withdrawal of STPI Tax benefits in
FY12 through tax policy change. L&T Infotech has taken
several initiatives for operational excellence, tapping
new markets and forging strategic alliances to provide
solutions in upcoming technologies.
Integrated Engineering Services, an SBU within L&T and a
provider of engineering services, is a global operator with
94% of its business from overseas. It has shown a robust
growth of 64% in the revenues during the current fiscal,
despite economic slowdown in USA, Europe, etc. With
growing clientele, the business is poised for encouraging
growth over the next few years.

Sustainability
in Challenging
Times
Successful businesses are sustainable businesses –
in good times and even more so, in periods of uncertainty. In
good times, such companies thrive and set new performance
benchmarks. In times of challenge, they possess the inner
resilience and the robust systems that help them navigate
through cross currents and pull through to the future. Tough
times pose searching questions about the caliber of an
organization’s people, policies and practices.
They also test the organization’s resolve to remain steadfastly
by its values. L&T’s success in addressing and overcoming
challenges is a ‘live’ and continuing demonstration of the
quality of its systems and the caliber of its people and
processes.
Our annual Sustainability Reports continue to win national
and international recognition. The 2011 edition too has
secured the ‘A+’ rating from Global Reporting Initiative –
representing the highest level of disclosures.

L&T’s success in addressing and
overcoming challenges is a ‘live’ and
continuing demonstration of the
quality of its systems and the caliber
of its people and processes.
The following pages provide snapshots of sustainability in action.
Since financial performance is dealt with elsewhere in the Annual
Report, this section confines itself to the environmental & social
aspects.
A ‘Green Signal’ for Progress
The ‘green’ cause needs continuous motivation. We are
helping enlist more green champions through regular
communications in the form of e-mails, posters and banners
that are disseminated across the Company.
Public perception of the importance of protecting the
environment is gathering pace. In schools today, children
are taught facts about the dangers of environmental
degradation that must have been unheard of a couple of
generations ago. But there still is a yawning gap between
thought and action. Public awareness needs to be raised to
the tipping point – to the threshold that leads to the decisive
and consistent action which alone can bring about change.
L&T on its part is doing its bit by making green thinking
a part of its business agenda. As we push ahead with a
number of measures to reduce our carbon footprint, we
have also enabled other companies to go green by extending
our capabilities to construct more eco-friendly buildings and
offering products that conserve energy.
The greening of our campuses is part of a company-wide effort
that includes project sites and neighbouring areas. Over 30% of
the open land around our manufacturing facilities are lush green.
We are not only adopting eco-
friendly processes ourselves, we are
enabling other companies and the
community to advance more rapidly
towards a greener tomorrow.
Talegaon literally means the village of lakes. L&T has taken steps
to ensure that this little hamlet on the Sahyadris lives up
to its name, with a multi-tiered water conservation system.
15
Aligned with the Indian government’s National Action Plan
on Climate Change (NAPCC), L&T’s eco-friendly initiatives
have enlarged its green footprint.
SOLAR
Highlights of initiatives:
• We have reduced carbon emission to less than
22,000 tonnes since 2008
• 12 per cent of our energy requirement is
sourced from renewable energy
• Several of L&T’s buildings are certified ‘green
buildings’
SUSTAINABLE HABITAT
• 15 of our campuses have achieved zero
wastewater discharge status
• Total water consumption reduced by 5 per
cent by L&T units since 2009
• Natural material being replaced with crushed
sand, fly ash and ground granulated blast-
furnace slag
• Apart from these, L&T nurtures over 150,000
full-grown trees across its campuses.
Additionally, L&T helps sustain the fragile
Himalayan ecosystem by planting saplings
We continue to monitor performance
and seek to enhance results across all
environment-management initiatives.

Sustainability Report. For the e-version of the Report, please visit

SUSTAINING THE HIMALAYAN ECOSYSTEM
A Company with a Social Conscience
Everyone knows that you cannot ‘induct’ social consciousness
into people. The desire to help the underprivileged and the
willingness to spend personal time doing it needs to be self-
started. The social service programmes that are conducted
at our facilities nationwide and the helping hand that we
extend to the communities around us prove that, at L&T, our
social conscience is alive and well.
The helping hand we extend
to the communities around us
prove that at L&T, our social
conscience is alive and well.
We aim to ensure that every mother and child in the communities
we operate has access to medical treatment.
L&T’s social interactions take place at many levels, and
through multiple initiatives. These cover:
Construction Skills Training Institutes:
Eight such units have been set up by L&T on its own, and six
by L&T in collaboration with different state governments.
Each institute provides training free of cost in basic trades
such as masonry, carpentry, bar bending…. Those who are
trained find employment with the sub-contractors who work
on L&T’s projects.
Health Care:
Health Centres in Mumbai (at Andheri and Thane), Chennai,
Surat (Hazira) and Coimbatore provide diagnostic services
free of charge to the community. A special focus at these
centres and in health camps organized by L&T is mother &
child health.
Education:
L&T assists schools around its facilities with teaching aids.
A growing number of L&T-ites volunteer to teach pupils.
17
L&T engages with schools in the neighbourhood of its facilities.
We believe that education is the single most vital contributor to
progress.
L&Teering in Action:
LARSEN & TOUBRO PUBLIC CHARITABLE TRUST
An Engine of Change
You will not find the word ‘L&T-eers’ in the dictionary. It
is a unique word crafted to describe a special person – an
L&T-ite who volunteers to undertake community service in
his or her own time. L&T-eers belong to different age groups
and posses varying professional skills. What they all share
is the compassion and commitment to give back to society
the benefits of their expertise.
Teacher, counsellor and friend – the L&T-eers don many hats.
L&T-ites have been engaged in multiple initiatives
for the community. These include:
• Workshops for school students on personality
development
• ‘Mathematics with Smiles’ programmes to help
students befriend a tough subject
• Building water tanks, conducting health and
eye camps
• Participating in socially oriented community
events
18
The L&T Public Charitable Trust epitomizes the true spirit of
service. Without fanfare, and away from the glare of publicity,
this Trust formed by L&T and its employees is quietly but
decisively touching the lives of the underprivileged. LTPCT’s
initiatives last year include:
Education:
Project Vidya covers 56 schools in Maharashtra and Gujarat.
Vocational Training:
Close to a thousand men and over 4400 women have
benefitted.
Water Management:
26 check dams have been contructed in tribal pockets of
Thane District, Maharashtra.
Community Health:
Health Center at Coimbatore provides medical assistance
to villages in the vicinity. Programme with Family Planning
association of India in Mumbai and through KEM Hospital
Research Center, Pune has benefitted over 50,000 people in
urban and rural areas.
Corporate Technical Training - Support to ITI:
Industry Oriented Training in 27 ITIs improve employability
of students.
Trainees at L&T’s Construction Skills Training Institute at Chennai
learn to put up a scaffolding.
Ladies Take the Lead
The line ‘behind every successful man is a woman’ has so
often been used in a light-hearted context that its original
significance has become eroded. But in the case of L&T-
ites, the full significance of the line holds good. From the
metropolitan centres where the Company’s offices are based
to project sites in remote locations, spouses constitute
an invaluable support system that enables the L&T-ite to
Ladies Club members interact with women from the community
function effectively. At many of these locations, the wives
have gone a step further – they have pooled their skills
and resources to introduce a social dimension to their lives.
Groups known as ‘Ladies Clubs’ function under the umbrella
– ‘Prayas Trust’.
This movement has been energized by L&T’s Chairman &
Managing Director, Mr. A.M. Naik. He is an inspirational
mentor, a relentless goal-setter and a leader determined to
foster the principle of ‘giving back to society’. The initiatives
are often boosted by his personal contributions. Under Mr
Naik’s guidance, the Ladies Club network has extended its
reach and scope. Currently there are 33 Ladies Clubs with
over 3000 members.
Their canvas is vast. Ladies Clubs are involved in educational
enrichment programmes for schools , organising vocational
training courses, training in life skills for adolescent girls and
providing support to the differently-abled . Other key social
interventions cover those that make women self-reliant.
These include devising avenues for income generation to
help women impacted by HIV/AIDS , developing computer
literacy and training girls in tailoring and embroidery.
In addition, several Ladies Club members volunteer at
orphanages and institutions for the elderly and destitute.
At a different level, these clubs also play a very important
role to nurture employee bonding within the organisation.
“L&T Ladies Clubs present society
the human face of the Company.
I see these institutions as instruments
to transmit L&T’s values of caring and
sharing to the community at large.”
– Mr. A.M. Naik,
Chairman & Managing Director
At the inauguration of the new centre of ‘Prayas Trust’ – the
Ladies Club at Chennai, Mr. Naik urges members to expand the
scope of their activities and deepen their engagements.

equipment as well. Orders received from Israeli
Aerospace Industries as key Offset Partner in the areas of
Weapon Systems, Radars and Aerospace. The Defence
Business is also interacting with major international
players in the defence industry for technology tie ups
and indigenous manufacturing.
Construction IC:
The focus on GCC Countries occupies a predominant
position for PT&D for its International Business. The year
2011-12 was an extremely challenging year. Inordinate
delay / deferment of projects by clients affected the
Sales. However, L&T’s Global Footprint coupled with
project execution capabilities helped the IC in securing
certain prestigious orders in Qatar, UAE and Kuwait in
the Power Transmission and Distribution Sector. The IC
has substantially improved its market share in Qatar.
Business Environment:
The construction industry continues to witness slowdown
and was very sluggish during the last financial year. In
UAE, the Abu Dhabi Government, despite being highly
liquid and cash rich, is very cautious in it’s approach
and the same is evident from the delay in placement of
Tender/Award of Contracts.
Business Performance:
The IC has secured one of the largest value tender
in PT&D business at Qatar during the year 2011-12.
Expansion of Business into the new areas viz. Bahrain,
Kuwait has helped the Company to reach significantly
higher order inflow position.
Volatility in Commodity Prices:
Though oil price was not seen with much oscillation,
the commodity price had lot of volatility, however the
Operating Company protected its margin by mitigating
the risk through proper hedging.
Outlook:
The 2012-13 outlook for GCC countries remains
positive despite the Eurozone crisis. With oil prices
expected to be around $100/barrel range in 2012, GCC
public finances will remain reassuringly strong. Due to
Arab spring in 2011, Government will remain focused
on their medium term development goals & propel the
growth rate which will pave way for enhanced business
opportunities.
On the cost side, the various welfare measures
announced by GCC Governments for their nationals,
including a steep hike in their salaries pose a challenge
to the Company in terms of inflation & pressures
on margin. In addition, recruitment & management
of multinational staffs & workmen will add to the
challenges to the Company’s project team.
With the IC having firmly established in all GCC
countries now, it has set its sight to expand to African
Countries & corner a significant market share in GCC
Market.
Electrical & Automation IC:
The overall economic activities, affected by factors such
as increasing oil prices, inflation, higher interest rates
and rise in input costs, remained quite slow. The dull
Middle East markets in the middle-east added to the
pressure on this business.
Tamco Malaysia (one of the subsidiaries of the Company)
qualified for Achilles (UK) certification, made an entry
into Philippines and Vietnam markets, qualified in
Kuwait and Iraq, received Petronas approval for its MV
products and executed its first order for 31.5kA AIS at
Lusail City in Qatar.
The switchboards and automation teams bagged an
order of US $ 22 million for supply of switchboards and
telecommunications package including transmission
network and CCTV monitoring for an inter refinery
pipelines project in Abu Dhabi.
Future Outlook:
Some of our focused International markets have started
showing signs of recovery. The outlook for TAMCO holds
good promise. Besides Malaysia, there is an anticipation
of boom in mining and offshore industries as well as
capacity addition in windmills in Western Australia,
opportunities in the infrastructure sector in Qatar,
UAE and Malaysia. The Maaden frame agreement has
facilitated recognition of the IC’s subsidiary with global
EPC majors in KSA where higher government spending
in infrastructure segment is expected to yield significant
business. For the IC’s subsidiary in UAE, the Oil & Gas,
Utility and Infrastructure segments are showing signs
of revival across Middle East, Africa and CIS countries
with significant investments announced over next 3-5
years. Having strengthened its position in Telecom
System Integration, it expects to grow significantly in
this area in addition to the areas in control, electrical
and instrumentation.
Electrical & Automation (E&A) business is confident
of higher growth with the Utility segment indicating
increased activities alongwith revival in the Building
segment in GCC region. Africa has become a destination
of new opportunities. Prospects of turnkey automation
projects are improving and opportunities in the energy
management segment should contribute to better
growth for automation products and solutions.
For FY 2011-12, E&A filed 162 patents applications,
16 trademark applications, 10 design registrations
and 9 Copyrights as well as 10 international patent
applications through PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty)
making it the 5th consecutive year of filing more than
100 patent applications.
Power IC:
Power IC has identified export markets as key to growth
for its Gas-based Power Plants SBU. This is driven by
lack of opportunities in domestic market owing to sharp
fall in Gas availability, which led the Ministry of Power
to advise Indian Power Producers not to plan any new
Gas-based Power project until 2015-16.
Power IC has identified GCC and South East Asia as
the potential markets. A good beginning is made in
39
Bangladesh where the pre-qualification has been
achieved successfully. Orders totaling approximately
1600 MW are expected to be ordered out in 2012-13.
Negotiations are also in progress with Mitsubishi
Heavy Industries Limited to order components on the
manufacturing Joint Ventures, namely L&T-MHI Boilers
Private Limited and L&T-MHI Turbine Generators Private
Limited.
partners for further promotion and sales activities.
Increased mining activity in neighbouring countries
like Nepal, Bhutan and Myanmar will also throw
opportunities of sale for our equipment in coming year.
A few initiatives detailed:
The following initiatives are being followed on a
continuous basis by the Company:
(cid:122) Widening new geographical areas for augmenting
Manufacturing & Industrial Products IC (MIP IC):
its exports.
LTM BU has successfully supplied the proto type press
to a major European Tyre Manufacturer and the press
is under observation. On successful performance LTM
will be in a position to get orders for presses to their
plants worldwide. LTM also succeeded in obtaining an
order for Automatic Truck Tyre Building Machines from
another Major European Tyre Major, which opens a new
market segment for the unit. The Rubber Machinery
business secured orders in Greenfield domestic projects
and emerging economies like Brazil and Russia this year.
LTM BU also stands to benefit from the new business
prospects likely to emerge in the area of Internal Mixers
and Twin Screw Extruders in the coming year.
Valves unit did good business on the back of sustained
Oil & Gas project activity in the Middle East, North Africa
and Australia. The targeted projects in international Oil
& Gas were on schedule and enabled Valves to end the
year with a healthy order booking. Extension of approval
for new range of products including TMBV / TOBV were
taken up with end users like Aramco, KOC, Adnoc etc.
for their product requirements. Service support at site
was strengthened with agreements signed with local
modification shop in Qatar, Saudi Arabia & Abu Dhabi.
Detailed plans to address replacement market business
are being worked out with key distributors. All these
measures are expected to bring in international business
of significant scale.
Exports opportunities of Crushing and Surface Mining
equipment at Kansbahal were limited in 2011-12 due
to subdued activities in cement industry in GCC region.

Annexure ‘C’ To The Directors’ Report
A. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Corporate governance refers to a set of laws, regulations and good practices that enable an organization to perform
efficiently and ethically generate long term wealth and create value for all its stakeholders. The Company believes that
sound Corporate Governance is critical for enhancing and retaining investor trust and your Company always seeks
to ensure that its performance goals are met with integrity. The Company has established systems and procedures to
ensure that its board of directors is well informed and well equipped to fulfill its overall responsibilities and to provide
management with the strategic direction needed to create long term shareholders value. The Company has always
worked towards building trust with shareholders, employees, customers, suppliers and other stakeholders based on
the principles of good corporate governance viz., integrity, equity, transparency, fairness, disclosure, accountability and
commitment to values.
B. COMPANY’S CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PHILOSOPHY
The Company’s essential character revolves around values based on transparency, integrity, professionalism and
accountability. At the highest level, the Company continuously endeavours to improve upon these aspects on an
ongoing basis and adopts innovative approaches for leveraging resources, converting opportunities into achievements
through proper empowerment and motivation, fostering a healthy growth and development of human resources to
take the Company forward.
C. THE GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE
The Company has four tiers of Corporate Governance structure, viz.:
(i) Strategic Supervision – by the Board of Directors comprising the Executive and Non-Executive Directors.
(ii) Executive Management – by the Corporate Management comprising the Executive Directors and two Senior
Managerial Personnel and three Advisors to the Chairman.
(iii) Strategy & Operational Management – by the Independent Company Boards of each Independent Company
(IC) comprising representatives from the Company Board, Senior Executives from the IC and independent members.
(iv) Operational Management – by the Strategic Business Unit (SBU) Heads.
The four-tier governance structure, besides ensuring greater management accountability and credibility, facilitates
increased autonomy of businesses, performance discipline and development of business leaders, leading to increased
public confidence.
D. ROLES OF VARIOUS CONSTITUENTS OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE IN THE COMPANY
a. Board of Directors (the Board):
The Directors of the Company are in a fiduciary position, empowered to oversee the management functions
with a view to ensure its effectiveness and enhancement of shareholder value. The Board reviews and approves
management’s strategic plan & business objectives and monitors the Company’s strategic direction.
b. Executive Management Committee (EMC):
The EMC plays an important role in maintaining the linkage between IC’s and the Company’s Board as well as in
realizing inter-IC synergies and cross cutting opportunities. The key responsibilities of the EMC include approval of
policies cutting across IC’s and at Corporate level such as capital investments, expansions, customer and supplier
synergy, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and reviewing the consolidated financials and budgets before they
are presented to the Company Board.
c. Chairman & Managing Director (CMD):
The CMD is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. He is the Chairman of the Board and the Executive
Management Committee. His primary role is to provide leadership to the Board and the Corporate Management
for realizing the approved strategic plan and business objectives. He presides over the Board and the Shareholders’
meetings.
The Board has bifurcated the position of CMD. Presently, the Company has a Chief Executive Officer and Managing
Director (CEO & MD). The present CMD will take on his new role as Group Executive Chairman with effect from
October 1, 2012.
49
The CEO & MD will be fully accountable to the Board for the Company’s business results, people development,
operational excellence, business development and other related responsibilities. The Group Executive Chairman
will provide leadership and devote his full attention to certain core actions which would include, inter alia, focus
on restructuring, mentor senior executives, succession planning, corporate governance, interface with critical
Government entities and major customers for the Company and Group Companies and provide support, wherever
necessary.
d. Executive Directors (ED) / Senior Management Personnel:
The Executive Directors, as members of the Board, along with the Senior Management Personnel in the Executive
Management Committee, contribute to the strategic management of the Company’s businesses within Board
approved direction and framework. They assume overall responsibility for strategic management of business and
corporate functions including its governance processes and top management effectiveness. As regards Subsidiaries,
Associates and Joint Venture Companies, they act as the custodians of the Company’s interests and are responsible
for their governance in accordance with the approved plans.
e. Non-Executive Directors (NED):
The Non-Executive Directors play a critical role in enhancing balance to the Board processes with their independent
judgment on issues of strategy, performance, resources, standards of conduct, etc., besides providing the Board
with valuable inputs.
f.
Independent Company Board (IC Board):
In 2010-11, the Company developed its strategic plan for 2010-15 (LAKSHYA 2015) which, inter alia, defined
various business areas to be focused on over the next five years. The thrust of LAKSHYA 2015 was increased
accountability and ownership for performance, making the Company less complex to manage and be more focused
on its core business. The Company was restructured into 10 Independent Companies (ICs) [not legal entities] with
each IC having its own Board, with members both within the Company, independent members and a representative
from the Company’s Board.
Since the formulation of “LAKSHYA 2015” the development in domestic and international environment impacted
the performance and future expectations of many of the Company’s existing businesses compared to the original
targets in “LAKSHYA 2015”. The Company has now undertaken a mid-term review of the Strategy Plan called
“LAKSHYA 2016” to initiate various strategic actions to achieve the goals set earlier with minimum deviations.

is absence of conflict of interest, ensures
availability of diverse perspectives, business
experience, legal, financial & other expertise,
integrity, managerial qualities, practical
wisdom, ability to read & understand financial
statements, commitment to ethical standards
and values of the Company and ensure healthy
debates & sound decisions.
While evaluating the suitability of a Director
for re-appointment, besides the above
criteria, the Committee considers the past
performance, attendance and participation in
and contribution to the activities of the Board
by the Director.
The Non-Executive Directors comply with
the definition of Independent Director
as given under Clause 49 of the Listing
Agreement. As per the definition, all our NEDs
qualify as “Independent Directors”. While
appointing / re-appointing any NEDs on the
Board, the Committee, considers the criteria
as laid down in the Listing Agreement.
All the Independent Directors give a certificate
confirming that they meet the “independence
criteria” as mentioned in Clause 49 of the
Listing Agreement.
These certificates have been placed on the
website of the Company.
Remuneration Policy
The remuneration of the Board members
is based on the Company’s size & global
presence, its economic & financial position,
industrial trends, compensation paid by the
peer companies, etc. Compensation reflects
each Board member’s responsibility and
performance. The level of Board compensation
to Executive Directors is designed to be
competitive in the market for highly qualified
executives.
The Company pays remuneration to Executive
Directors by way of salary, perquisites &
retirement benefits (fixed components) &
commission (variable component), based on
recommendation of the Committee, approval
of the Board and the shareholders. The
commission is calculated with reference to
net profits of the Company in the financial
year subject to overall ceilings stipulated under
Sections 198 & 309 of the Companies Act,
1956.
The NEDs are paid remuneration by way of
commission & sitting fees. The Company
pays sitting fees of v 20,000 per meeting of
the Committee and the Board to the NEDs
for attending the meetings of the Board &
Committees. The commission is paid as per
limits approved by shareholders, subject to a
limit not exceeding 1% p.a. of the profits of
the Company (computed in accordance with
Section 309(5) of the Companies Act, 1956).
The commission to NEDs is distributed
broadly on the basis of their attendance,

meetings, Chairmanship of Committees and
participation in IC meetings.

Institutions, the commission is paid to the
Financial Institutions.

and when required, of their role, responsibilities &
liabilities.
The Company holds Board meetings at its registered
office and also if necessary, in locations, where
it operates. Site / factory visits are organized at
various locations for the Directors.
b)
Information to directors:
The Board of Directors has complete access to
the information within the Company, which inter
alia, includes items as mentioned on Page 52 in
Annexure ‘C’ to the Directors Report.
Presentations are made regularly to the Board /
N&R / Audit Committee (AC) (minutes of AC & N&R
are circulated to the Board), where Directors get
an opportunity to interact with senior managers.
Presentations, inter alia, cover business strategies,
management structure, HR policy, management
development and succession planning, quarterly
and annual results, budgets, treasury policy, review
of Internal Audit, risk management framework,
operations of subsidiaries and associates, etc.
Independent Directors have the freedom to interact
with the Company’s management. Interactions
happen during Board / Committee meetings,
when senior company personnel are asked to
make presentations about performance of their
Independent Company / Business Unit, to the
Board. Such interactions also happen when these
Directors meet senior management in IC meetings
and informal gatherings.
c) Risk Management Framework:
The Company has in place mechanisms to inform
Board Members about the risk assessment and
minimization procedures and periodical review to
ensure that executive management controls risk by
means of a properly defined framework.
A detailed note on risk management is given in
the Financial Review section of Management’s
Discussion and Analysis report elsewhere in this

d) Statutory Auditors:
The Board has recommended to the shareholders,
the re-appointment of Sharp & Tannan (S&T) as
auditors. S&T has furnished a declaration confirming
their independence as well as their arm’s length
relationship with the Company as well as declaring
that they have not taken up any prohibited non-
audit assignments for the Company. The Company
believes that S&T, over a period of time, has gained
extensive knowledge of the Company and its
diversified business, which is essential to ensure
audit quality & audit objectivity. Robust internal
control systems and risk management framework,
review of Auditors’ performance by the Audit
Committee and peer review of the Audit firm, are
some of the more important factors that prevent
audit failures. Mr. R. D. Kare has signed the audit
report for 2011-2012 on behalf of S&T.

Management Discussion & Analysis 2011-2012
Global Economic Condition
The world economy continues to face challenges on the road
to sustained recovery. Advanced Economies that seemed to
be shaping well at the start of 2011 lost steam towards
the fag-end of the year and this uncertainty is clouding
the prospects for global growth during 2012. The growth
momentum was impacted as the protracted debt crisis in
the euro area and fiscal fragilities dampened business and
consumer confidence.
The economic crisis and its ramifications have accelerated
the shift of economic power from the developed to the
emerging nations and exposed a fragile world with limited
capacity to respond to systemic risks. The consequence
has been volatile and low growth which is likely to stay for
sometime to come.
was the lowest annual growth in the last 9 years and was
sub-par in comparison to not just the pre-crisis years up to
2008 but also compared to immediate post crisis period.
With increasing global integration, the Indian economy was
impacted by global uncertainties, while at the same time
faced significant domestic challenges of persistent and high
inflation, tight monetary conditions, low investment and
delays in policy making.
The slowdown in 2011-12 was seen in all the major sectors
of the economy as compared with the previous year. The
Services sector grew by 8.9%, Industry by 3.4% and
Agriculture by 2.8% as compared with 9.3%, 7.2% and
7% respectively in 2010-2011. Industrial growth remained
subdued due to supply-side bottlenecks, particularly in
the mining sector, and moderation in investment demand.
Near term, the growth prospects for 2012-2013 remain
The most dismal picture has been presented by capital
uncertain, with growth petering out in the euro area and
goods segment which has been in a negative territory

makes the much needed fiscal adjustment. Meanwhile, the
resource rich Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has
been facing significant internal challenges and geopolitical
risks. In addition, there is the risk of large potential spillovers
to the region from Europe.
Business scenario:
Core sectors in the country which are of key importance
to the businesses of the Company, in particular, Power,
Transportation Infrastructure, Hydrocarbon, Fertiliser,
Defence, faced multiple challenges due to policy delays.
The year 2011-2012 was abetted by the continuing

to new projects. The competition for limited opportunities,
led to socio-political tensions, increasing protectionism,
reassessment of regulation and more importantly, heightened
competition for scarce natural resources.
Overview of Indian Economy
Delays in obtaining various clearances and approvals
staggered progress on a few ongoing projects in power,
power transmission, roads and railways segment. Product
businesses of the Company witnessed sluggish industrial
demand and recorded moderate sales during 2011-2012.
After a rebound in growth in 2010-2011, the Indian

budget proposals for the year 2012-2013. Apart from Power
and Transportation Infrastructure, the emphasis will be on
strengthening certain other sectors such as Fertiliser, Oil &
Gas Pipelines, Irrigation, and Rural Market Network with
increase in the budgeted allocation of resources for funding
growth in these sectors.
In the long-term, India continues to offer considerable
opportunities aided by its favourable demographic profile.
Its large consumer market has attracted global companies,
many of whom have made India their manufacturing hub.
However, in order to harness this potential and achieve
sustainable growth, the country needs to push forward critical
reforms and build innovative public-private partnerships
to deliver rapid and inclusive growth as also provide an
enabling environment for upgrading infrastructure.
The businesses of the Company are also focusing on
harnessing international prospects, mainly from the Middle
East region in 2012-2013. The forays into international
markets would mean dealing with many challenges such
as stiff competition from multinational players, regulatory
requirements of local sourcing etc.
Margins would remain under pressure during 2012-2013
with inflationary conditions and continuing competition
from domestic and international players. The volatility in
commodity prices and foreign currency exchange rates
are expected to pose challenges to the operating margins.
Conditions of tight liquidity and elevated interest rates are
expected to prevail in 2012-2013. The working capital levels
unless managed well are likely to trend higher.
Besides policy reforms, better governance, delivery
systems and stronger implementation, the leaders from
the government, industry and society need to collaborate
to improve the education system, invest in much needed
infrastructure, increase the agricultural productivity and
ensure an equitable distribution of opportunities for
achieving an inclusive and sustainable growth.
Growth Strategies and Thrust Areas:
Improved execution efficiencies, cost competitiveness,
better supply chain management, control over working
capital, efficient utilization of resources, smart bidding
strategies, better product and service offerings will enable
the businesses to achieve the desired targets in the medium
term. The major growth strategies of the Company include:
With some signs of stability returning in the MENA region and
• Thrust to International Business :

While strengthening its domestic presence, the Company
development and capacity expansion in Oil & Gas sector is
expected to attract fresh investments in the Middle East
which augur well for the businesses of the Company.

Overview
Infrastructure (Infra) IC undertakes design, engineering
and construction of projects in Roads and Runways,
Elevated Corridors, Metros, Tunnels, Ports, Special Bridges,
Hydro Power, Nuclear Power, Defence and Railway
infrastructure sectors.
Business Environment
The slowdown in economic growth adversely affected the
investment in various infrastructure projects in 2011-2012.
Apart from deferment of ordering, the IC also witnessed
stiff competition on the available business prospects during
the year 2011-2012. Tight liquidity position, issues relating
to land acquisition slowed down the pace of execution of
certain large scale projects. The prices of key inputs remained
volatile during 2011-2012.
Some of the major orders secured in during the year
2011-2012 include Hosur-Krishnagiri, Bewar-Pindwara,
Kishangarh-Ahmedabad and Shivpuri-Dewas projects in road
sector, various underground and elevated metro packages
of Delhi, Chennai & Kolkata, common service package for

competitiveness, operational excellence, value engineering
and improved capacity utilisation. Attracting and retaining
talent with requisite competencies and focus on training and
development to enhance productivity are also being done
continuously to support the business needs.
75
Outlook
Given the huge gap between infrastructure demand
and supply in a growing economy like India, all business
relating to urban infrastructure, power, roads and water
would witness attractive growth over a sustained period.
The Union Budget 2012-2013 also lays greater emphasis
on infrastructure development. The realisation of order
prospects in infrastructure, power, defence and railways
sectors, however, largely depend upon the government’s
ability to implement the policy decision and finance large
scale projects.
Infra IC is clearly focussing in capitalising the current market
trend. With the specific and continuous thrust on business
development, the IC is looking at new opportunities
across various business segments in India as well as in the
International fronts. The healthy Order book position of

Overview
Business Environment
Power Transmission & distribution (PT&D) IC with its foot
prints in India and GCC Countries, is one of the major
players in EPC space for High Voltage Substations, Industrial
Electrification and Power Transmission Lines.
The Industrial Electrification Business provides turnkey
Electrical and Instrumentation & Communication solutions

Market, boosted by its state of the art tower testing facility at
Kanchipuram and tower manufacturing units at Pondicherry
and Pithampur, with an installed capacity of 50,000 TPA in
each location.
Over the last few years, IC has established strong presence in
GCC countries and is now set to expand to African countries.
The business environment for PT&D business was challenging
during 2011-2012. Increased Competition from local and
small players, volatility in currency and commodity prices,
entry of new players, delays in Power capacity additions and
Power density improvement projects imposed constraints for
growth in PT&D business.
Some of the major orders bagged by PT&D IC include
transmission lines projects from PGCIL for Varanasi to
Kanpur, Raipur to Wardha, Wardha to Aurangabad,
Substation projects of Phagi from RVPN, E-BOP for 2X660

International orders include EHV Substations and Cabling
projects from Qatar General Electricity & Water Authority,
Abu Dhabi Transmission & dispatch Company, Substation for
Abu Dhabi Port Company and EHV substation from Ministry
of Electricity & Water, Kuwait.
79
Outlook
Power shortage scenario in India is expected to intensify
the focus by the Government for improving power
transmission & distribution. Utilities like PGCIL, NTPC, etc
and State Electricity Boards are likely to go-ahead with their
investments in the coming years in power transmission and
distribution. With high crude oil prices, GCC public finances
will remain reassuringly strong. The focus on infrastructure
development and boost to tourism in most of the countries

how, readiness & clear focus on growth segments, entering
Middle East market by putting up a strong organization
structure have helped water and solar business to chart a
good growth in 2011-2012.
Outlook
Indian Government’s consistent support to bridge the
demand supply gap in water segment coupled with the
interest shown by water bodies towards water management
contracts, offer promising growth prospects for the water
segment in India. With increased pollution monitoring by
regulators and almost 79% of waste water generated not
been collected, the highly inadequate waste water segment
will see large investments in the coming years.
Water Technology BU which will concentrate on the Middle
East markets predominantly has seen very favourable
prospects in Desalination and Reuse in Oman and KSA.
Industries in these countries are going for Reuse projects to
meet water demand. The BU is building up on its technology
tie-ups, which is seen to be the main differentiator among
the competitors.
With further ease in external sources of financing, prices
of solar panels stabilizing, grid parity to be achieved by
2014-2015, the solar segment appears promising. With the
Indian government already having unveiled the National
Solar Mission to target of 20,000 MW of solar generating
capacity by the end of the 13th Five Year Plan, there are many
favourable growth prospects for solar EPC for 2012-2013.

Power IC
L&T’s joint venture with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries introduces world-class supercritical technology to India.
Overview
Power IC specializes in setting up of power generation
projects for utilities like electricity boards and independent
power producers on a lump sum turnkey basis.
Power IC undertakes coal based & gas-based projects &
specialises in the super critical technology equipments. Its
in house manufacturing facilities in the form of Boiler &
Steam Turbine , pressure piping fabrication, Axial fans &
air-preheaters & Electrostatic Precipitators together with
its decades strength in the areas of project management,
engineering & construction management has made Power
IC as end to end solution provider under one cloud in setting
up the thermal based power plants, particularly of the super
critical type.
During the year 2011-2012, the Power IC focused on timely
execution of its existing projects amid multiple challenges on
the business prospects front. The facility for manufacture of
Electrostatic Precipitators was commissioned during 2011-
2012. The facilities of the joint venture with Howden UK
for manufacture of axial fans and air-preheaters were also
commissioned during the year. Major dispatches of machines
and materials to the various project sites of customers were
made from the manufacturing facilities for Boiler and Steam
Turbine, High Pressure piping which were commissioned
during 2010-2011. With this, the Power IC is geared up to
provide nearly 85% (by value) of equipment and services
in house.
During the year, most projects entered into the critical phase.
The Phase 2 of GMR Vemagiri gas based combined cycle
power plant progressed substantially during the year, with
Unit 2 being commissioned in record time of 24 months and
the mechanical completion of Unit 3 was also completed. A
significant milestone in power projects, ‘Ceiling Girder Final
Jackup’ was completed for 2 units of the JPVL Nigrie project
83
(Madhya Pradesh) and 1 unit of the Nabha Power project
(Rajpura, Punjab).
The year 2011-2012 also saw dispatch of ODC consignments
and critical supplies for Boiler for the Koradi and Nigrie
projects, notably the Generator Stator and related
assemblies. In case of APPDCL project, the 392MT Generator
Stator was successfully erected.
Currently, 3 BOP projects are under execution and will enter
the critical phase of completion in the year 2012-2013.
The Dhuvaran gas based project being constructed for
Gujarat State Electricity Corp. Ltd. saw the HRSG primary
structures executed in a record 14 days.
The challenging economic environment reflected on lower
order inflow during 2011-2012. The IC has, however,
registered substantial growth in sales and profitability.
Business Environment
Recently, India’s installed power generation capacity
exceeded the milestone of 200,000 MW, still much lower
than the installed capacity of 950,000 MW of China.India
faces acute power shortages, slowing its economic engine.
The planned capacity addition target of 76000 MW in the XII
plan also look increasingly difficult to achieve, considering
the myriad problems plaguing the power sector. Over the
last 12 to 18 months, business opportunities for players in
thermal power space have shrunk dramatically, despite high
demand for power. The Power industry faced unexpected
headwinds on many fronts such as fuel shortages, difficulties
in financial closure of new projects, delayed environmental
clearance, land acquisition issues and the financial troubles
of SEBs. The domestic coal and gas supply did not reach the
expected levels. The domestic market for gas-based projects
has, therefore, pretty much evaporated. The IC also faced
intense competition from BHEL, Chinese equipment suppliers
as also from Korean and European players, battling for
shrinking opportunities with aggressive bidding strategies.
The Union Budget 2012 also left the domestic power
equipment industry largely disappointed. The much
sought after demand for levy of duties on import of power
equipment from China, was ignored, and the market
continues to be dominated by Chinese imports, further
supported by financing from Chinese banks.
Significant Initiatives
The challenging business environment necessitated the
introduction of a slew of initiatives to ensure that the growth
plans remain on track and the IC continue to build on its
body of knowledge in the areas of super critical technology.
Considering the limited opportunity in the domestic market
for gas based projects, the IC has taken steps to expand
its horizons beyond India for gas based projects. The IC
is exploring opportunities in Asia (Bangladesh, Sri Lanka,
Malaysia, Indonesia & Thailand), Middle East (Saudi Arabia,
Oman, Qatar) and Africa (presently only Gabon) as many of
these countries have proven gas reserves, and fairly good gas
transportation networks. The move to explore new frontiers
will enable the IC to diversify its project profile and ride on
the growth expected in these markets.
A Technical Services Support Agreement was entered
into with MHI pursuant to which the IC has formed
Engineering & Technology Group which is entrusted with
the responsibility to assimilate the best practices of MHI in
Interface Engineering of Boiler, Turbine Generator, Balance
of Plant and also for commissioning the projects.
To increase operational efficiencies, the IC also came up with
various improvements in execution methodologies. The IC
is first in India to use the Strand Jack method for Generator
Stator erection in the Krishnapatnam project and Boiler
erection in the Rajpura project. With a view to develop a
pool of talented professionals with sound knowledge of the
power industry, technologies and capabilities, the IC has set
up the Power Training Institute at Vadodara in 2011-2012.
With the objective of developing and sustaining a strong and
reliable vendor base, the IC convened its first ever vendor
meet to identify, discuss and understand the needs and
solutions of vendors.
The IC is also in the process of setting up a Central Project
Monitoring system. With this, it will be possible to remotely
monitor from a central location the progress at various
project sites across the country.
84
Outlook
The Government has recently taken certain measures, which
indicate its seriousness about the problems plaguing the
power sector. The recent directive to Coal India to enter into
long term Fuel Supply Agreements with power developers
provides assurance of coal supply to all plants expected to
be commissioned by March 2015. A few state electricity
distribution companies have raised their tariffs which is a
big positive for their finances, and provides the necessary
impetus to both state power generation companies and IPP’s
to plan for new projects.
IC expects the first half of 2012-2013 to be challenging; the
second half, however, seems promising with some awards
materializing especially from state owned companies.
The focused initiatives taken by ICs in the overseas market
will help getting awards in Asia for gas based projects. The
IC also expects orders for civil packages in power plants from
both private and public sector.
With existing order backlog and expected timely execution
of all projects, the IC is confident to sustain the growth in
sales and profitability in 2012-2013.
The IC with all its factories commissioned, offering of energy
efficient solutions, a robust technology and manpower base
with relevant capabilities, is poised to capitalize on the
opportunities of the future.

Capacity additions in Indian Cement and Power Sector
during 2011-2012 helped realise revenue growth for
Kansbahal’s Industrial Machinery business through supply
of Limestone and Coal Crushing Plants. Adoption of more
energy-efficient processes in Indian Steel industry also saw
continued demand for Torpedo Ladle Cars. Renewed focus
by the State Governments on non-conventional energy has
favoured investment in wind turbines. Automotive and
Engineering Sectors fared better and showed good growth
during 2011-2012 resulting in better performance in both
our EWAC and Cutting tools business.

Business Environment
Significant Initiatives
Analysts are highly optimistic on the prospects of outsourcing
business to India. With the economic slowdown, there is a
pressure on American and European companies to leverage
outsourcing for getting the benefits of value added services
and cost arbitrage.
Engineering Research & Development (ER&D) outsourcing to
India has shown remarkable growth from $8.3 Bn in 2009
to $11.3 Bn in 2011. The Engineering Outsourcing market
to India is expected to grow to $ 40-$ 45 billion by the year
2020 with a CAGR of 16%. (Source: Nasscom)
Engineering Service Industry is on the cusp of a significant
change, shifting to knowledge-intensive and value-added
services that call for a new way of functioning. Besides
cost arbitrage, the need to scale rapidly, greater focus on
core competencies, enhanced productivity, competition and
reduced time to market are driving the business.
Revenue from North America contributes 70% of the total
revenues, the visa policies of North America especially USA,
therefore, have maximum impact on IES’s business. To
minimize this effect and to meet the business requirements,
IES is also recruiting local talent.
IES being in an export oriented service business, any
fluctuation in the foreign currency exchange rate has a
considerable impact on its performance. IES has undertaken
a range of measures like hedging to minimize these exchange
fluctuation impact.
ER&D outsourcing sector is predominantly a project based
business. IES is actively working to increase its annuity
business portfolio and some of the significant long term
contracts won during the year are a testimony to that.
A significant growth in ER&D market will be in the industry
sectors of Transportation, Industrial Products and Plant
Engineering. These sectors together will account for more
than 70% of ER&D market. IES is uniquely positioned to
have strong presence in each of these industry sectors as
compared to our domestic and international competitors.
IES has taken significant initiatives towards propelling
its growth so as to grab the opportunity with a focus
on Transportation,
Industrial Products and Plant
Engineering verticals.

significantly over the years. Engineering Services is one such
industry. During the current fiscal year, IES has been able to
achieve a revenue growth of 60%. To cater to this growth,
IES has added more than 1200 employees in the year and
more than 50 clients including 15 fortune 500 companies.

SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE IN A CHALLENGING
ENVIRONMENT
Good revenue growth, healthy order book, enhanced
profit and strong balance sheet are the highlights of the
Company’s performance during 2011-2012.
The Company garnered fresh orders amounting to
v 70574 crore, despite decelerating growth momentum
across the sectors in India during the year 2011-2012.
Order Inflow includes proportionate share in Integrated
Joint Ventures. Lower GDP growth, policy uncertainties
and rising borrowing costs led to deferment of various
order prospects during the year 2011-2012. Moreover, stiff
competition from international and domestic players posed
considerable challenges in converting available prospects
into orders. Still Buildings & Factories, Infrastructure, Power
Transmission & Distribution and Metallurgical & Material
Handling businesses contributed significantly to the order
inflows during the year. International order inflow at
v 12909 crore during the year 2011-2012 recorded an
increase of 62% aided by concerted business development
initiatives undertaken in select geographies.
The Order Book including share in Integrated Joint Ventures
at the close of the year was healthy at v 145723 crore.
Proven track record in the various business segments,
enhanced capacities and sector specific focus enabled the
Company to achieve CAGR of 20% in its order book over
the last 3 years.
Revenue from Operations
Gross Revenue from Operations for the year at v 53738 crore
registered a growth of 21% over 2010-2011 on the back
of healthy Order Book at the start of the year. Most of the
projects progressed well as scheduled, in particular, EPC
Power, Buildings & Factories and Hydrocarbon businesses
contributed significantly to the Company’s Revenue growth.
The product businesses, however, recorded a modest
revenue increase with sluggish industrial off-take during
the year 2011-2012. International Revenue grew by 38%,
constituting 12% of the total Revenue, mostly contributed
by various projects under execution in Power Transmission
& Distribution, Infrastructure and Oil & Gas sectors in GCC
countries and sales by Integrated Engineering Services
business.
A compounded annual growth in Revenue of 20% over the
last 3 years, reflects consistent good performance delivered
over the years.
Operating Cost
Manufacturing, Construction and Operating expenses for
the year 2011-2012 amounted to v 41020 crore, translating
into 77.1% of the Net Revenue. As compared to the previous
year, these costs increased by 90 basis points as the prices of
key inputs were higher in the year 2011-2012.
99
Depreciation & Amortization charge
Depreciation and amortisation charge for the year 2011-2012
at v 699 crore increased by 37% over the previous year
reflecting the full impact of the additions to the fixed assets
carried out in the previous year and part impact of the
additions made during 2011-2012.
Other Income
Other Income for 2011-2012 amounted to v 1338 crore as
against v 1147 crore for the previous year. Dividends from
Group companies during the year amounted to v 408 crore
as against v 229 crore earned in 2010-2011. Temporary
surplus funds invested in low risk, largely interest-bearing
short term investments, earned an income of v 723 crore
in 2011-2012 vis-à-vis v 516 crore in the previous year. The
yield on these short-term investments was 8.90%.
During the year, the Company divested its part stake in
Raykal Aluminium Company Private Limited, a subsidiary
company at an exceptional gain of v 55 crore (net of tax
v 43 crore). The previous year included an exceptional gain
of v 262 crore (net of tax v 211 crore).
Finance cost
Interest expense for 2011-2012 amounted to v 666 crore
with an average borrowing cost of 7.8% p.a. as against
8.0% p.a. for the previous year. The Company’s loan
portfolio is carefully balanced with a combination of suitably
hedged foreign currency loans and domestic loans, tied-up
at appropriate times. This has enabled the Company to
reduce its average borrowing cost, despite weak INR, tight
liquidity conditions and high interest rates regime that
prevailed throughout the year.
Profit after tax and EPS
Profit after Tax (PAT) for the year 2011-2012 from normal
operations excluding exceptional and extraordinary items
The Staff Expenses for the year 2011-2012 at v 3663 crore
increased by 29.4% as compared to the previous year,
representing 6.9% of the Net Revenue. There was a net
addition of 3637 employees during the year mainly to support
higher level of activities in Engineering & Construction
businesses and Integrated Engineering Services business.
The Company’s manpower strength stood at 48754 as at
March 31, 2012.
Sales, Administration & Other expenses for 2011-2012
at v 2204 crore were contained at 4.1% of Net Revenue
as against 4.5% for 2010-2011, reflecting a saving of 40
basis points, largely arising out of lower warranty provisions,
reduction in packing & forwarding expenses and decrease in
losses of Integrated Joint Ventures. The Sales, Administration
& Other expenses for the year 2011-2012 comprised higher
net exchange loss of v 459 crore largely arising from MTM
valuation of exposures vis-à-vis v 193 crore for the previous
year, as INR weakened significantly against USD during the
year.
100
During the year, fresh investments of v 1684 crore were
made in the equity shares of subsidiary, joint venture &
associate companies. Investments in terms of loans, inter-
corporate deposits and advances against equity to the
subsidiary & associate companies stood at v 3541 crore as on
March 31, 2012 vis-à-vis v 2440 crore as on March 31, 2011.

the PAT of v 3676 crore for the previous year.
Overall PAT including extraordinary and exceptional items, for
the year 2011-2012 was v 4457 crore vis-à-vis v 3958 crore
for the year 2010-2011.
The Earnings per Share (EPS) excluding exceptional and
extraordinary items for 2011-2012 at v 72.22 improved by
19% over the previous year.
Over a period of last 3 years, PAT registered a compound
growth of 18%.
Funds Employed and Returns
With continued thrust on capacity augmentation, the
Company invested v 1730 crore in 2011-2012 mainly to
acquire various plant and equipment for the businesses in
Engineering and Construction segment and for expansion
of the Modular Fabrication Yard at Kattupalli, Tamilnadu.
The manufacturing facilities at Vadodara and Ahmednagar
for the Electrical and Electronics business segment are being
ramped up to improve the competitiveness of the business.
Gross Working capital as at March 31, 2012 was
v 39287 crore, representing 73.1% of sales vis-à-vis
71.5% as at the end of the previous year. The increase
was mainly due to increase in customer receivables. Net
Customer Receivables as at the end of the year stood at
v 18730 crore, reflecting 127 Days of Sales, higher by 25
Days sales over the previous year. The customer receivables
as on March 31, 2012 included v 12393 crore contractually
not due. The balance customer receivables which were
contractually due as on March 31, 2012 have increased by
7 days sales over the previous year.
Net Working capital as at March 31, 2012 also increased over
the previous year due to lower advances from customers, as
anticipated orders were not received.
Accordingly, the overall Funds Employed by the Company at
v 35252 crore as at March 31, 2012 increased by v 5981 crore
as compared to the previous year end position.
Return on Net Worth (RONW) for the year 2011-2012 is
at 18.8% as against 18.3% for the previous year. Return
on Capital Employed (ROCE) for the year 2011-2012 is at
15.1% quite close to the ROCE of 15.0% for the previous
year. The new facilities created in the recent past for the
various businesses of the Company, are yet to reach their
optimum utilization levels. Moreover, the investments in
emerging businesses housed in subsidiary companies such
as shipbuilding, power development and heavy forgings

on the jobs by Power, Buildings & Factories and Hydrocarbon
businesses. This revenue growth was achieved despite
deferment of some of the anticipated orders and delays
in obtaining clearances in a few projects under execution.
During the year, the Segment secured orders totaling to
v 63573 crore vis-à-vis order inflow of v 73602 crore during
the previous year. International orders constituting 18% of
the total order inflow grew by 70% over the previous year.
The business environment was highly challenging during
the year as investment momentum paused in Power sector,
intense competition witnessed in the Oil & Gas sector and
policy delays led to deferment of bidding process in Fertilizer
and Defence sectors.
The Order Book of the Segment stood at a healthy
v 143448 crore as at March 31, 2012 with international
orders constituting 12% of the total order book.
are in the construction stage. Many of the BOT projects
are either in the construction stage or in their early phase
of commercial operations. As a result, the increase in net
earnings is moderate as compared to the addition to net
funds employed, leading to muted return profile.
Economic Value Added from normal operations stands
positive at v 430 crore for 2011-2012. The trend during
the past three years reflects the investment phase for the
company.
Liquidity & Gearing
During the year 2011-2012 the cash accruals from operations
were lower at v 1082 crore as compared to the previous year,
mainly due to increase in net working capital, despite higher
net earnings. The Company incurred capital expenditure of
v 1730 crore and made investment in group companies of
v 2139 crore. Fresh borrowings and proceeds from sale of
short term investments supplemented the accruals from
operations to fund these investments.
During the year 2011-2012, some of the expensive loans
were repaid and fresh loans were raised at relatively lower
interest rates.

II. RISK MANAGEMENT
The company is predominantly engaged in the engineering
and construction business with a high dependence on the
core sectors of the economy. With increasing focus on
international operations and extensive assortment of risks
associated with turnkey projects, our long-term success
largely depends on how effectively we identify and analyze
the risks involved in a project and manage them to our
competitive advantage.
The Company strongly believes that its Risk Management
culture should pervade the whole enterprise instead of
being restricted to a few silos and has, therefore, actively
pursued a uniform risk framework and understanding
across the organization. Continuing on this belief, besides
employing an efficient risk management structure in its main
businesses of engineering and construction, the company
has also succeeded in establishing a similar risk management
structure in its product businesses, as well as in all its major
subsidiary companies.
The current slowdown in investment momentum witnessed
in almost all sectors of the economy, coupled with high
inflation and interest rates, volatile financial markets and
delayed policy intervention are posing considerable challenge
to the growth of the core sector with fewer projects coming
up for capacity augmentation. The sluggish economy of the
developed countries has further intensified the competition
with more number of foreign players vying for a share of
the limited pie. Despite all these challenges, the company,
by leveraging on its Enterprise Risk Management (ERM)
culture and past record of excellence in project execution,
has been able to secure orders against stiff domestic and
international competition. On strategic front, opportunities
in international geographies and markets are being exploited
to its fullest potential in order to counter the risk of business
momentum slowdown in domestic markets of the company.
The key to successful project execution lies in timely
completion and cost management. The well-established
process of detailed pre-bid risk review not only helps in
realistic estimation of project cost, but also facilitates early
identification of the key risks in the project and devising
informed mitigation strategy. Once a project order is won,
the process of risk review continues throughout the project
lifecycle. The project team and business heads, facilitated by
104
the risk management committee, continuously monitor the
impact of new risks emerging during the execution phase
and take appropriate mitigation steps.
Information technology plays a very important role in
achieving business goals and hence it becomes essential
for the company to have sound risk management in this
area. The company has integrated its Information Security
initiatives with its overall risk management framework and
enhanced such security by deploying latest technology and
improving the monitoring processes. Business Continuity
and Disaster Recovery systems are constantly upgraded with
state-of-the-art tools for replication, and performing drills
to ensure unhindered availability of data and systems at all
times.
Each business group follows a well-documented risk
management policy and procedures framed around the
uniqueness of the businesses. Risk Management offices in
each business along with the Corporate Risk Management
representatives actively participate in the risk review
process and also continuously assess the ERM structure for
improvements.
The year saw a sharp volatility of Indian Rupee against US
Dollar. The company has a well-defined hedging policy
wherein a joint committee of the respective Business Heads
and the Treasury department decides on the hedging
strategy for all projects. This helps in effectively insulating the
company against the risk of foreign exchange fluctuations.
A significantly large part of the company’s business portfolio
being made up of project business, is exposed to a variety of
risks. The large volume of procurement and sub-contracting
across various countries poses the challenge of appropriate
cost estimation for long duration LSTK contracts. Successful
implementation of international projects requires knowledge
of the regulatory and taxation laws of respective countries.
Talent acquisition in remote project sites becomes difficult in
many cases. The risk management process gives a platform
to discuss all such critical risks and their mitigation plans
which in turn brings in transparency and predictability in the
project management process.
The company is a member of the Engineering & Construction
Risk Institute (ECRI), USA and actively participates in training
and knowledge sharing sessions with its peers. As a part of
risk assurance, the company’s risk management policy and
procedures are periodically reviewed and revised to align
with changing business needs and the demands of the new
organisation structure. Corporate Audit Service also conducts
independent reviews of risk management processes to check
their effectiveness. The Audit Committee of the Board is
periodically informed about the significant risks, functioning
of the risk management process and various initiatives taken
for improvement in the risk management framework of the
company.
Internal Controls
The growing business activities and restructuring of business
processes call for a constant review of the efficacy of the
company’s internal control mechanism. The company has an
internal process for such a review to facilitate formulation
and revision of policies and guidelines to align with the
changing needs.
A corporate policy on internal control is in place which
provides structured framework for
identification,
rectification, monitoring and reporting of internal control
weaknesses in the company. Various business segments of
the company have also created well documented policies,
authorization guidelines and standard operating procedures
as per their business requirements. There is a separate
process in the company which oversees the guidelines and
implementation of internal controls in business processes.
Apart from having all policies, procedures and internal audit
mechanism in place, the company also periodically engages
an expert consulting firm to carry out an independent
review of the effectiveness of various business processes.
The observations and good practices suggested are reviewed
by the Management and Audit Committee and appropriately
implemented for strengthening the controls of various
business processes.
The effectiveness of internal control mechanism is also
continuously reviewed by Corporate Audit Services. The
statutory auditor, during the process of financial audit, checks
the internal control efficacy. All significant observations and
corrective actions taken are reviewed by the Management
and Audit Committee of the Board.
III. FINANCIAL RISKS
a) Capital Structure, Liquidity and Interest rate risks
Over the years, the Company’s strategy of keeping a
conservative capital structure has positioned it well
in managing the economic volatility and at the same
time, also providing the flexibility for funding growth.
With an objective of maintaining a healthy credit
profile, the Company has consciously followed a policy
of restricting its financial leverage. This policy, apart
from contributing to a strong balance sheet, provides
flexibility for future fund raising options, which is of
significance given the recent volatility in global markets.
The Company holds necessary levels of liquidity,
judiciously deployed into short term investments in
line with the corporate treasury policy. In addition,
the company regularly assesses and maintains other
means of sourcing liquidity, such as ready lines with the
banking system and quick access to capital markets. The
company regularly evaluates the right levels of liquidity
in line with business needs and economic factors.
To manage interest rate risks, the Company uses a mix
of fund-raising and investment products across maturity
profiles, and adopts various tools approved under a
robust risk management framework.
b) Foreign Exchange and Commodity Price Risks
The company is exposed to changes in foreign exchange
rates and commodity prices across its various business
segments. It also has exposures to foreign currency
denominated financial assets and liabilities. The business
related financial risks are to a reasonable extent,
especially in case of commodities, managed contractually
by inclusion of price pass through or variations clauses.
The Company’s loan portfolio is managed both by
choice of loan currency and by contracting appropriate
treasury products, with a view to balancing risks while
optimizing borrowing costs. Appropriate hedging tools
are used under the framework of a Board approved
Risk Management Policy. Financial risks in each business
portfolio are measured and managed centrally. These
risks are reviewed periodically and managed in line with
the objective laid out in the Risk Management Policy of
the Company. The process is also subject to an annual
review by the Audit Committee.
IV. GETTING THE BEST OUT OF INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY FOR BUSINESS BENEFITS
The company is of the firm belief that Information
Technology is a key enabler for employee productivity and
business efficiency. Every business of the company is well
supported by an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system
to carry out its business processes and to take care of all
transaction processing needs. Most businesses have niche
application systems to complement the ERP and perform
special functions to provide a competitive advantage. During
the year the company has also deployed CRM systems for
marketing specific to the project business, PLM systems for
better connect with bidding, engineering , execution and
BI systems for providing better information for decision
making. The company has re architected and upgraded its
systems periodically to prevent obsolescence and to ensure
better business IT alignment.
The use of advanced networking and communications has
facilitated team collaboration, with savings in travel costs. IT
infrastructure has been enhanced and expanded to provide
reliability, security and availability. A new state-of-the-art
Data center at Powai has been one such initiative that was
successfully completed during the year.
105
Modern technology initiatives are pursued after due scrutiny
and evaluation; a pilot deployment of mobile applications
has been done as a prelude to more applications that are
on the anvil. We see Cloud computing emerging as a major
change in IT delivery model and in sync with this trend, the
foundations for a Private Cloud are being built that will
leverage all the cloud computing models and technologies
to reduce costs, provide better performance and elastic
capacity on demand.
The IT function in the company continues to focus on value
delivery, security, superior customer service and complete
alignment with business as its cornerstones of performance.

skill building are the key thrust areas for community welfare.
Mechanisms to monitor and facilitate these developmental
activities on the social front are systemic. L&T units and
project sites are encouraged to undertake programmes that
benefit the community. Employee volunteers and spouses
of employees are important drivers of our community
development initiatives. Through a network of L&T units,
offices and project sites spread across the country we are
able to reach a significant number of beneficiaries of our
social interventions.
The company has put in place an Environmental and
social risk management framework to proactively address
environmental and social issues in the planning stage of
products & services. This ensures that negative impacts on
environment are mitigated or controlled effectively.
Since 2008, L&T has been conducting carbon footprint
mapping of its operations that enables to determine
the annual GHG emissions. This level of comprehensive
quantification is helping to strategically plan and monitor
our emission intensity.
At L&T our objective is to progressively drive design expertise,
operational efficiency and maintenance efforts towards
cleaner and greener technologies. We have implemented
many eco-friendly initiatives such as, ‘Zero wastewater
Discharge Approach’ and presently 15 of L&T locations have
achieved zero discharge status. All wastewater generated is
treated, and reused within the units.
L&T’s energy conservation practices not only result in
environment protection but also result in cost optimization.
The company focuses on state of the art technology, cleaner
processes and propagating energy optimization culture.
Biodiversity conservation is consciously implemented across
the company and we have done GIS based biodiversity
assessment of key campuses.
The Corporate Social Initiatives (CSI) cell of the company

Notes: The fair value of the plan assets under the trust managed provident fund plan has been determined at amounts
based on their value at the time of redemption, assuming a constant rate of return to maturity.
*
Basis used to determine the overall expected return:
The trust formed by the Company manages the investments of provident funds and gratuity fund. Expected return on plan
assets is determined based on the assessment made at the beginning of the year on the return expected on its existing
portfolio, along with the estimated increment to the plan assets and expected yield on the respective assets in the portfolio
during the year. Refer Note no.Q(8)(ii)(f)(7) below.
The Company expects to fund v 48.56 crore (previous year: v 27.11 crore) towards its gratuity plan and v 84.45 crore
(previous year: v 78.63 crore) towards its trust-managed provident fund plan during the year 2012-2013.

For post-retirement medical benefit plan & Company pension plan, the attrition rate varies from 2% to 8%
(previous year: 2% to 8%) for various age groups.
b)
For gratuity plan the attrition rate varies from 1% to 6% (previous year: 1% to 6%) for various age groups.
The estimates of future salary increases, considered in actuarial valuation, take into account inflation, seniority,
promotion and other relevant factors, such as supply and demand in the employment market.
The interest payment obligation of trust-managed provident fund is assumed to be adequately covered by the interest
income on long term investments of the fund. Any shortfall in the interest income over the interest obligation is
recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as actuarial losses.
The obligation of the Company under the post-retirement medical benefit plan is limited to the overall ceiling limits. At
present, healthcare cost, as indicated in the principal actuarial assumption given above, has been assumed to increase
at 5% p.a.
A one percentage point change in assumed healthcare cost trend rates would have the following effects on the

h) General descriptions of defined benefit plans:
1. Gratuity plan:
The Company operates gratuity plan through a trust wherein every employee is entitled to the benefit equivalent to
fifteen days salary last drawn for each completed year of service. The same is payable on termination of service or
retirement whichever is earlier. The benefit vests after five years of continuous service. The Company’s scheme is more
favourable as compared to the obligation under Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. A small part of the gratuity plan,
which is not material is unfunded and managed within the Company.
2.
Post-retirement medical benefit plan:
The Post-retirement medical benefit plan provides for reimbursement of health care costs to certain categories of
employees post their retirement. The reimbursement is subject to an overall ceiling sanctioned based on cadre of the
employee at the time of retirement.
3. Company’s pension plan:
In addition to contribution to state-managed pension plan (EPS scheme), the Company operates a post retirement
pension scheme, which is discretionary in nature for certain cadres of employees. The quantum of pension depends
on the cadre of the employee at the time of retirement.
4.
Trust managed provident fund plan:
The Company manages provident fund plan through a provident fund trust for its employees which is permitted
under the Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. The plan envisages contribution by employer and
employees and guarantees interest at the rate notified by the provident fund authority. The contribution by employer
and employee together with interest are payable at the time of separation from service or retirement whichever is
earlier. The benefit under this plan vests immediately on rendering of service.
The interest payment obligation of trust-managed provident fund is assumed to be adequately covered by the interest
income on long term investments of the fund. Any shortfall in the interest income over the interest obligation is
recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as actuarial loss. Any loss/gain arising out of the investment

risk and actuarial risk associated with the plan is also recognized as expense or income in the period in which such
loss/gain occurs. Further, an amount of v 18.68 crore has been provided based on actuarial valuation towards the
future obligation arising out of interest rate guarantee associated with the plan.

NOTE [R] SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1. Basis of accounting
The Company maintains its accounts on accrual basis following the historical cost convention in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles [“GAAP”] except for the revaluation of certain fixed assets in compliance with the provisions of the Companies
Act, 1956 and the Accounting Standards as specified in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 prescribed by the central
government. Further, the guidance notes / announcements issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) are also
considered, wherever applicable except to the extent where compliance with other statutory promulgations viz. SEBI guidelines override
the same requiring a different treatment.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires that the management of the Company makes estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of income and expenses of the period, the reported balances of assets and liabilities
and the disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Examples of such estimates include the
useful lives of tangible and intangible fixed assets, allowance for doubtful debts/advances, future obligations in respect of retirement
benefit plans, etc. Difference, if any, between the actual results and estimates is recognized in the period in which the results are
known.
2. Presentation of financial statements
The Balance Sheet and the Statement of Profit and Loss are prepared and presented in the format prescribed in the Schedule VI to the
Companies Act, 1956 (“the Act”). The Cash Flow Statement has been prepared and presented as per the requirements of Accounting
Standard (AS) 3 “Cash Flow Statements”. The disclosure requirements with respect to items in the Balance Sheet and Statement of
Profit and Loss, as prescribed in the Schedule VI to the Act, are presented by way of notes forming part of accounts along with the
other notes required to be disclosed under the notified Accounting Standards and the Listing Agreement.
Amounts in the financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees in crore [1 crore = 10 million] rounded off to two decimal places
in line with the requirements of Schedule VI. Per share data are presented in Indian Rupees to two decimals places.
3. Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized based on nature of activity when consideration can be reasonably measured and there exists reasonable certainty
of its recovery.
A. Revenue from operations
a)
Sales & service
i)
ii)
Sales and service include excise duty and adjustments made towards liquidated damages and price variation, wherever
applicable. Escalation and other claims, which are not ascertainable/acknowledged by customers, are not taken into
account.
Revenue from sale of manufactured and traded goods is recognized when the substantial risks and rewards of
ownership are transferred to the buyer under the terms of the contract.
iii) Revenue from property development activity is recognized when all significant risks and rewards of ownership in the
land and/or building are transferred to the customer and a reasonable expectation of collection of the sale consideration
from the customer exists.
iv) Revenue from construction/project related activity and contracts for supply/commissioning of complex plant and
equipment is recognized as follows:
a) Cost plus contracts: Contract revenue is determined by adding the aggregate cost plus proportionate margin as
agreed with the customer.
b)
Fixed price contracts: Contract revenue is recognized only to the extent of cost incurred till such time the outcome
of the job cannot be ascertained reliably. When the outcome of the contract is ascertained reliably, contract
revenue is recognized at cost of work performed on the contract plus proportionate margin, using the percentage
of completion method. Percentage of completion is the proportion of cost of work performed to-date, to the
total estimated contract costs.
Government grants in the nature of subsidy related to customer contracts is recognized as revenue from operations
in the Statement of Profit and Loss, on a prudent basis, in proportion to work completed when there is reasonable
assurance that the conditions for the grant of subsidy will be fulfilled.

NOTE [R] SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (contd.)
Expected loss, if any, on the construction/project related activity is recognized as an expense in the period in which
it is foreseen, irrespective of the stage of completion of the contract. While determining the amount of foreseeable
loss, all elements of costs and related incidental income not included in contract revenue is taken into consideration.
v)
Revenues from construction/project related activity and contracts executed in joint ventures under work-sharing
arrangement [being jointly controlled operations, in terms of Accounting Standard (AS) 27 “Financial Reporting of

Company.
vi) Revenue from service related activities is recognized using the proportionate completion method.
vii) Commission income is recognized as and when the terms of the contract are fulfilled.
viii) Revenue from engineering and service fees is recognized as per the terms of the contract.
ix) Profit/loss on contracts executed by Integrated Joint Ventures under profit-sharing arrangement [being Jointly Controlled
Entities, in terms of Accounting Standard (AS) 27 “Financial Reporting of Interests in Joint Ventures”] is accounted
as and when the same is determined by the joint venture. Revenue from services rendered to such joint ventures is
accounted on accrual basis.
b) Other operational revenue
Other operational revenue represents income earned from the activities incidental to the business and is recognized when
the right to receive the income is established as per the terms of the contract.
B. Other Income:
i)
Interest income is accrued at applicable interest rate.
ii) Dividend income is accounted in the period in which the right to receive the same is established.
iii) Other Government grants, which are revenue in nature and are towards compensation for the related costs, are recognized
as income in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the matching costs are incurred.
iv) Other items of income are accounted as and when the right to receive arises.
4. Extraordinary and exceptional items
Income or expenses that arise from events or transactions that are clearly distinct from the ordinary activities of the Company are
classified as extraordinary items. Specific disclosure of such events/transactions is made in the financial statements. Similarly, any
external event beyond the control of the Company, significantly impacting income or expense, is also treated as extraordinary item
and disclosed as such.
On certain occasions, the size, type or incidence of an item of income or expense, pertaining to the ordinary activities of the Company,
is such that its disclosure improves an understanding of the performance of the Company. Such income or expense is classified as an
exceptional item and accordingly disclosed in the notes to accounts.

output of the intangible asset or intangible asset itself or if it is to be used internally, the usefulness of intangible assets
v)
The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the
intangible asset and

6. Employee benefits
a)
Short term employee benefits:
All employee benefits falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term employee
benefits. The benefits like salaries, wages, short term compensated absences etc. and the expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia. are
recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate used for determining the
present value of the obligation under defined benefit plans, is based on the market yield on government securities of a maturity
period equivalent to the weighted average maturity profile of the related obligations at the Balance Sheet date.
Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The interest element in the actuarial valuation of defined benefit plans, which comprises the implicit interest cost and the impact
of changes in discount rate, is classified under finance costs. The balance charge is recognised as employee benefit expenses in
the Statement of Profit and Loss.
In case of funded plans, the fair value of the plan assets is reduced from the gross obligation under the defined benefit plans
to recognise the obligation on a net basis.
Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognised when the curtailment or settlement
occurs. Past service cost is recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become
vested.
c)
Long term employee benefits:
The obligation for long term employee benefits such as long term compensated absences, long service award etc. is recognised
in the similar manner as in the case of defined benefit plans as mentioned in (b)(ii) above.

10. Intangible assets and amortization
Intangible assets are stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits availed, if any, less accumulated amortization and cumulative
impairment. Intangible assets are recognised when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset
will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are amortised over their useful life as
follows:
a)
Specialised software: over a period of six years.
b)
Technical know-how: over a period of six years in case of foreign technology and three years in the case of indigenous technology.
c) Development costs for new products: over a period of five years.
Administrative and other general overhead expenses that are specifically attributable to acquisition of intangible assets are allocated
and capitalised as a part of the cost of the intangible assets.
Intangible assets not ready for the intended use on the date of the Balance Sheet are disclosed as “Intangible assets under development”.

Notes forming part of the Accounts (contd.)
NOTE [R] SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (contd.)
11. Impairment of assets
As at each Balance Sheet date, the carrying amount of assets is tested for impairment so as to determine:
a)
the provision for impairment loss, if any; and
b)
the reversal of impairment loss recognised in previous periods, if any,
Impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is determined:
a)
in the case of an individual asset, at the higher of the net selling price and the value in use;
b)
in the case of a cash generating unit (a group of assets that generates identified, independent cash flows), at the higher of the
cash generating unit’s net selling price and the value in use.
(Value in use is determined as the present value of estimated future cash flows from the continuing use of an asset and from its
disposal at the end of its useful life).
12. Investments
Trade investments comprise investments in subsidiary companies, joint ventures, associate companies and in the entities in which the
Company has strategic business interest.
Investments, which are readily realizable and are intended to be held for not more than one year from the date of acquisition, are
classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as long term investments.
Long term investments including trade investments are carried at cost, after providing for any diminution in value, if such diminution
is other than temporary in nature. Investments in integrated joint ventures are carried at cost net of adjustments for Company’s share
in profits or losses as recognised.
Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value. The determination of carrying amount of such investments is done
on the basis of weighted average cost of each individual investment.
13. Inventories
Inventories are valued after providing for obsolescence, as under:
a)
Raw materials, components, construction materials, stores, spares and loose tools at lower of weighted average cost or net
realisable value.
b) Manufacturing work-in-progress at lower of cost including related overheads or net realisable value.

to borrowings, finance charges in respect of assets acquired on finance lease and exchange differences arising from foreign currency
borrowings, to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs.
Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized/inventorised
as part of cost of such asset till such time the asset is ready for its intended use or sale. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily
requires a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense
in the period in which they are incurred.
17. Employee stock ownership schemes
In respect of stock options granted pursuant to the Company’s Stock Options Scheme, the intrinsic value of the options (excess of
market price of the share over the exercise price of the option) is treated as discount and accounted as employee compensation cost

18. Foreign currency transactions, foreign operations, forward contracts and derivatives
a)
The reporting currency of the Company is Indian rupee.

items, carried at historical cost denominated in a foreign currency, are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the
transaction.
Exchange differences that arise on settlement of monetary items or on reporting of monetary items at each balance sheet date
at the closing rate are:
i)
ii)
adjusted in the cost of fixed assets specifically financed by the borrowings contracted up to March 31, 2004 to which the
exchange differences relate
adjusted in the cost of fixed assets specifically financed by borrowings contracted between the period April 1, 2004 to
March 31, 2007 and to which the exchange differences relate, provided the assets are acquired from outside India
iii)
recognized as income or expense in the period in which they arise, in cases other than (i) and (ii) above.
c)
Financial statements of foreign operations comprising jobs contracted prior to April 1, 2004, are translated as follows:
i)
ii)
Closing inventories at rates prevailing at the end of the year

additions are at rates prevailing on the dates of the additions. Depreciation is accounted at the same rate at which the
assets are translated.
iii) Other assets and liabilities at rates prevailing at the end of the year
iv) Net revenues at the average rate for the year.
Financial statements of foreign operations comprising jobs contracted on or after April 1, 2004, are treated as integral operations
and translated as in the same manner as foreign currency transactions, as described above. Exchange differences arising on such
translation are recognized as income or expense of the period in which they arise.
Forward contracts, other than those entered into to hedge foreign currency risk on unexecuted firm commitments or highly
probable forecast transactions, are treated as foreign currency transactions and accounted accordingly as per Accounting
Standard (AS) 11 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”. Exchange differences arising on such contracts are
recognised in the period in which they arise.
d)
e)
194
Notes forming part of the Accounts (contd.)
NOTE [R] SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (contd.)
Gains and losses arising on account of roll over/cancellation of forward contracts are recognised as income /expense of the period
in which such roll over / cancellation takes place.
f) All the other derivative contracts, including forward contracts entered into to hedge foreign currency risks on unexecuted firm
commitments and highly probable forecast transactions, are recognised in the financial statements at fair value as on the Balance
Sheet date, in pursuance of the announcement of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) dated March 29, 2008
on accounting of derivatives. The Company has adopted Accounting Standard (AS) 30 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and
Measurement” for accounting of such derivative contracts, not covered under Accounting Standard (AS) 11 “The Effects of
Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”, as mandated by the ICAI in the aforesaid announcement.
Accordingly, the resultant gains or losses on fair valuation/settlement of the derivative contracts covered under Accounting
Standard (AS) 30 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss
or Balance Sheet as the case may be after applying the test of hedge effectiveness. Where the hedge in respect of off-balance
sheet items is effective, the gains or losses are recognised in the “hedging reserve” which forms part of “reserves and surplus”
in the Balance Sheet. The amount recognised in the “hedging reserve” is transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the
period in which the underlying hedged item affects the Statement of Profit and Loss. Gains or losses in respect of ineffective
hedges are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which such gains or losses are incurred.
g)
The premium paid/received on a foreign currency forward contract is accounted as expense/income over the life of the contract.
19. Segment accounting
a)
Segment accounting policies
Segment accounting policies are in line with the accounting policies of the Company. In addition, the following specific accounting
policies have been followed for segment reporting:
i)
ii)

Expenses which relate to the Company as a whole and not allocable to segments are included under “unallocable corporate
expenditure”.
iii)
Income which relates to the Company as a whole and not allocable to segments is included in “unallocable corporate
income”.
iv) Segment result includes margins on inter-segment capital jobs, which are reduced in arriving at the profit before tax of the
Company.
v)
Segment assets and liabilities include those directly identifiable with the respective segments. Unallocable corporate assets
and liabilities represent the assets and liabilities that relate to the Company as a whole and not allocable to any segment.
b)
Inter-segment transfer pricing
Segment revenue resulting from transactions with other business segments is accounted on the basis of transfer price agreed
between the segments. Such transfer prices are either determined to yield a desired margin or agreed on a negotiated basis.
20. Taxes on income
Tax on income for the current period is determined on the basis of taxable income and tax credits computed in accordance with the
provisions of the Income Tax Act 1961, and based on the expected outcome of assessments/appeals.
Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the income accounted in financial statements and the taxable income for
the year, and quantified using the tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted as on the Balance Sheet date.
Deferred tax assets relating to unabsorbed depreciation/business losses /losses under the head “capital gains” are recognised and
carried forward to the extent there is virtual certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred
tax assets can be realised.
Other deferred tax assets are recognised and carried forward to the extent that there is a reasonable certainty that sufficient future
taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.

Consolidated Financial Statements 2011-2012
Auditors’ Report to the Board of Directors of Larsen & Toubro Limited
on Consolidated Financial Statements
We have examined the attached Consolidated Balance Sheet of Larsen & Toubro Limited and its subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures
(the L&T Group) as at March 31, 2012 and also the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss and the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement
for the year ended on that date, annexed thereto. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are prepared, in all material respects, in
accordance with an identified financial reporting framework and are free of material misstatements. An audit includes examining, on
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statements. We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In respect of the financial statements of a subsidiary, we carried out the audit jointly with other auditor. The details of assets and revenues
in respect of the subsidiary to the extent to which they are reflected in the consolidated financial statements are given below:
Jointly audited:

In respect of the financial statements of certain subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, we did not carry out the audit. These financial
statements have been audited/reviewed by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates
to the amounts included in respect of the subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
The details of assets and revenues in respect of these subsidiaries and joint ventures and the net carrying cost of investment and current
year/period share of profit or loss in respect of these associates, to the extent to which they are reflected in the consolidated financial
statements are given below:

We further report that in respect of certain subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, we did not carry out the audit. These financial
statements have been certified by management and have been furnished to us, and in our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts
included in respect of the subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, are based solely on these certified financial statements.
Since the financial statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2012, which were compiled by management of these companies,
were not audited, any adjustments to their balances could have consequential effects on the attached consolidated financial statements.
However, the size of these subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, in the consolidated position is not significant in relative terms. The
details of assets and revenues in respect of these subsidiaries and joint ventures and the net carrying cost of investment and current year/

We report that, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the requirements of the
Accounting Standard (AS) 21, ”Consolidated Financial Statements”, (AS) 23, ”Accounting for Investments in Associates in Consolidated
Financial Statements” and (AS) 27, ”Financial Reporting of Interests in Joint Ventures” notified by the Companies (Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2006 and on the basis of the separate audited/certified financial statements of the L&T Group included in the consolidated financial
statements.
We report that on the basis of the information and according to the explanations given to us, and on the consideration of the separate audit
report on individual audited financial statements of the L&T Group, we are of the opinion that the said consolidated financial statements,
read together with notes thereon, give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India:
a)
in the case of the Consolidated Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the L&T Group as at March 31, 2012
b)
c)
in the case of the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss of the consolidated results of operations of the L&T Group for the year
ended on that date and
in the case of the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, of the consolidated cash flows of the L&T Group for the year ended on that

plan assets is determined based on the assessment made at the beginning of the year on the return expected on its
existing portfolio, along with the estimated increment to the plan assets and expected yield on the respective assets
in the portfolio during the year [Note no.9(ii)(f)(7)].
The Company expects to fund v 64.51 crore (previous year: v 34.36 crore) towards its gratuity plan and v 114.42 crore
(previous year: v 98.94 crore) towards its trust-managed provident fund plan during the year 2012-2013.

The Company operates gratuity plan through a trust wherein every employee is entitled to the benefit equivalent to
fifteen days salary last drawn for each completed year of service. The same is payable on termination of service or
retirement whichever is earlier. The benefit vests after five years of continuous service. The Company’s scheme is more
favourable as compared to the obligation under Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. A small part of the gratuity plan,
which is not material is unfunded and managed within the Company.
2.
Post-retirement medical benefit plan:
The Post-retirement medical benefit plan provides for reimbursement of health care costs to certain categories of
employees post their retirement. The reimbursement is subject to an overall ceiling sanctioned based on cadre of the
employee at the time of retirement.
3. Company’s pension plan:

and employee together with interest are payable at the time of separation from service or retirement whichever is
earlier. The benefit under this plan vests immediately on rendering of service.
The interest payment obligation of trust-managed provident fund is assumed to be adequately covered by the interest
income on long term investments of the fund. Any shortfall in the interest income over the interest obligation is
recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as actuarial loss. Any loss/gain arising out of the investment
risk and actuarial risk associated with the plan is also recognized as expense or income in the period in which such loss/
gain occurs. Further, an amount of v 20.61crore has been provided based on actuarial valuation towards the future
obligation arising out of interest rate guarantee associated with the plan.

a daily pro-rata basis, written on policies during the twelve months preceding the Balance Sheet date for fire, marine
cargo and miscellaneous business (excluding project related engineering insurance contracts) and 100% for marine
hull business, on all unexpired policies at Balance Sheet date, in accordance with Section 64 V(1)(ii)(b) of the Insurance
Act, 1938. The reserve for unexpired risk is computed for project related engineering insurance contract through the

the basis of ultimate amounts likely to be paid on each claim based on the past experience. These estimates are
progressively revalidated on availability of further information. IBNR represents that amount of claims that may have
been incurred during the accounting period but have not been reported or claimed. The IBNR provision also includes
provision, if any, required for claims IBNER. Estimated liability for claims Incurred But Not Reported (‘IBNR’) and claims

at cost and the carrying amount is adjusted thereafter for post-acquisition change in the Company’s share of net assets of the
associate. The carrying amount of investment in associate companies is reduced to recognize any decline which is other than
temporary in nature and such determination of decline in value, if any, is made for each investment individually. The unrealized
profits/losses on transactions with associate companies are eliminated by reducing the carrying amount of investment.

Toll collection rights obtained in consideration for rendering construction services represent the right to collect toll revenue during
the concession period in respect of Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) projects undertaken by the Group. Toll collection rights are
capitalized as intangible asset upon completion of the project at the cumulative construction costs including related margins (refer
accounting policy on revenue recognition above) plus obligation towards negative grants payable to National Highway Authority
of India (NHAI), if any. Till the completion of the project, the same is recognised as intangible assets under development. The
revenue towards collection of toll/other income during the period of construction is reduced from the cost of intangible asset
under development. Toll collection rights are amortised over the period of rights given under the concession agreement.
Administrative and other general overhead expenses that are specifically attributable to acquisition of intangible assets are
allocated and capitalised as a part of the cost of the intangible assets. Amortisation on impaired assets is provided by adjusting
the amortisation charges in the remaining periods so as to allocate the assets’ revised carrying amount over its remaining useful

acquisition after making necessary adjustments for material events between the date of such financial statements and the date
of respective acquisition. Capital reserve on consolidation represents negative goodwill arising on consolidation.
Goodwill arising out of acquisition of equity stake in a subsidiary, an associate or a joint venture is amortised in equal amounts
over a period of ten years from the date of first acquisition. In the event of cessation of operations of a subsidiary, associate or
joint venture, the unamortised goodwill is written off fully.
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred for potential mineral reserves is recognised and reported as part of “intangible
assets under development” under “intangible assets” when such costs are expected to be either recouped in full through
successful exploration and development of the area of interest or alternatively, by its sale; or when exploration and evaluation
activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise
of economically available reserves and active and significant operations in relation to the area are continuing or are planned for
the future. Exploration assets are re-assessed on a regular basis and these costs are carried forward provided that at least one
of the conditions outlined above is met. All other exploration and evaluation expenditure is recognised as expense in the period
in which it is incurred.
12. Impairment of assets
As at each Balance Sheet date, the carrying amount of assets is tested for impairment so as to determine:
a)
b)
the provision for impairment loss, if any and
the reversal of impairment loss recognised in previous periods, if any
Impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.

classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as long term investments.
Long term investments (other than associates) including trade investments are carried at cost, after providing for any diminution
in value, if such diminution is other than temporary in nature. Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value. The
determination of carrying amount of such investments is done on the basis of weighted average cost of each individual investment.
Investment in associate companies is accounted using “equity method” as stated in Para 4 (b) above.
14. Inventories
Inventories are valued after providing for obsolescence, as under:
a)
Raw materials, components, construction materials, stores, spares and loose tools at lower of weighted average cost or net

NOTE [R] SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (contd.)
20. Foreign currency transactions, foreign operations, forward contracts and derivatives
a)
b)
The reporting currency of the Company is Indian Rupee.
Foreign currency transactions are recorded on initial recognition in the reporting currency, using the exchange rate at the date of
the transaction. At each Balance Sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are reported using the closing rate. Non-monetary
items, carried at historical cost denominated in a foreign currency, are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the
transaction.
Exchange differences that arise on settlement of monetary items or on reporting of monetary items at each Balance Sheet date
at the closing rate are:
i)
ii)
adjusted in the cost of fixed assets specifically financed by the borrowings contracted upto March 31, 2004 to which the
exchange differences relate.
adjusted in the cost of fixed assets specifically financed by borrowings contracted between the period April 1, 2004 to
March 31, 2007 and to which the exchange differences relate, provided the assets are acquired from outside India.
iii)
recognised as income or expense in the period in which they arise, in cases other than (i) and (ii) above.
c)
Financial statements of foreign operations comprising jobs contracted prior to April 1, 2004, are translated as follows:
i)
ii)
Closing inventories at rates prevailing at the end of the year.
Fixed Assets as at April 1, 1991 at rates prevailing at the end of the year in which the additions were made. Subsequent
additions are at rates prevailing on the dates of the additions. Depreciation is accounted at the same rate at which the
assets are translated.
iii) Other assets and liabilities at rates prevailing at the end of the year.
iv) Net revenues at the average rate for the year.
d)
Financial statements of foreign operations comprising jobs contracted on or after April 1, 2004, are treated as Integral operations
and translated as in the same manner as foreign currency transactions, as described above. Exchange differences arising on such
translation are recognised as income or expense of the period in which they arise.
e)
Financial statements of overseas non-integral operations are translated as under:
i)
Assets and liabilities at the rate prevailing at the end of the year. Depreciation and amortization is accounted at the same
rate at which assets are converted.
ii)
Revenues and expenses at yearly average exchange rates prevailing during the year.
Exchange differences arising on translation of non- integral foreign operations are accumulated in the foreign currency
translation reserve until the disposal of such operations.
f)
Forward contracts, other than those entered into to hedge foreign currency risk on unexecuted firm commitments or highly
probable forecast transactions, are treated as foreign currency transactions and accounted accordingly as per Accounting
Standard (AS) 11 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”. Exchange differences arising on such contracts are
recognised in the period in which they arise.
Gains and losses arising on account of roll over/cancellation of forward contracts are recognised as income/expense of the period
in which such roll over/cancellation takes place.
g) All the other derivative contracts, including forward contracts entered into to hedge foreign currency risks on unexecuted firm
commitments and highly probable forecast transactions, are recognised in the financial statements at fair value as on the Balance
Sheet date, in pursuance of the announcement of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) dated March 29, 2008
on accounting of derivatives. The Company has adopted Accounting Standard (AS) 30 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and
Measurement” for accounting of such derivative contracts, not covered under Accounting Standard (AS) 11 “The Effects of
Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”, as mandated by the ICAI in the aforesaid announcement.
Accordingly, the resultant gains or losses on fair valuation/settlement of the derivative contracts covered under Accounting
Standard (AS) 30 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss
or Balance Sheet as the case may be after applying the test of hedge effectiveness. Where the hedge is effective, the gains or
losses are recognised in the “hedging reserve” which forms part of “reserves and surplus” in the Balance Sheet. The amount
recognised in the “hedging reserve” is transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the underlying
259
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Accounts (contd.)
NOTE [R] SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (contd.)
hedged item affects the Statement of Profit and Loss. Gains and losses in respect of ineffective hedges are recognized in the
Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which such gains or losses are incurred.
h)
The premium paid/received on a foreign currency forward contract is accounted as expense/income over the life of the contract.
21. Segment accounting
a)

Expenses which relate to the Company as a whole and not allocable to segments are included under “unallocable corporate
expenditure.”
iii)
Income which relates to the Company as a whole and not allocable to segments is included in “unallocable corporate
income”.
iv) Segment result includes margins on inter-segment capital jobs, which are reduced in arriving at the profit before tax of the
Company.
v)
Segment assets and liabilities include those directly identifiable with the respective segments. Unallocable corporate assets
and liabilities represent the assets and liabilities that relate to the Company as a whole and not allocable to any segment.
b)
Inter-segment transfer pricing
Segment revenue resulting from transactions with other business segments is accounted on the basis of transfer price agreed
between the segments. Such transfer prices are either determined to yield a desired margin or agreed on a negotiated basis.
22. Taxes on income
a)
Indian companies:
Tax on income for the current period is determined on the basis of taxable income and tax credits computed in accordance with
the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and based on the expected outcome of assessments/appeals.
Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the income accounted in financial statements and the taxable income
for the year, and quantified using the tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted as on the Balance Sheet date.
Deferred tax assets relating to unabsorbed depreciation/business losses/losses under the head “capital gains” are recognised
and carried forward to the extent there is virtual certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which
such deferred tax assets can be realised.
Other deferred tax assets are recognised and carried forward to the extent that there is a reasonable certainty that sufficient
future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.
b)
Foreign companies:
Foreign companies recognise tax liabilities and assets in accordance with the applicable local laws.
23. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions are recognised for liabilities that can be measured only by using a substantial degree of estimation, if
a)
b)
c)
the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event
a probable outflow of resources is expected to settle the obligation and
the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated.
Reimbursement expected in respect of expenditure required to settle a provision is recognised only when it is virtually certain that the
reimbursement will be received.
Contingent liability is disclosed in case of
a)
a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the
obligation
260
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Accounts (contd.)
NOTE [R] SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (contd.)
b)
c)
a present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible
a possible obligation arising from past events, where the probability of outflow of resources is not remote.
Contingent assets are neither recognised, nor disclosed.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
24. Commitments
Commitments are future liabilities for contractual expenditure.
Commitments are classified and disclosed as follows:
a)
Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for
b) Uncalled liability on shares and other investments partly paid
c)
Funding related commitments to associate and joint venture companies and
d) Other non-cancellable commitments, if any, to the extent they are considered material and relevant in the opinion of management.
Other commitments related to sales/procurements made in the normal course of business are not disclosed to avoid excessive details.
25. Operating cycle for current and non-current classification
Operating cycle for the business activities of the company covers the duration of the specific project/contract/product line/service
including the defect liability period, wherever applicable and extends up to the realization of receivables (including retention monies)
within the agreed credit period normally applicable to the respective lines of business.
26. Deferred payment liabilities
The obligation towards additional concession fee payable to NHAI is recognized as deferred payment liability when the Company, in
its capacity of Concessionaire, becomes entitled to exercise the right and collect toll in accordance with the terms of the concession
agreement on Commercial Operations Date.
27. Cash Flow Statement
Cash Flow Statement is prepared segregating the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flow from
operating activities is reported using indirect method. Under the indirect method, the net profit is adjusted for the effects of:
i)
ii)
transactions of a non-cash nature
any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and
iii)
items of income or expense associated with investing or financing cash flows.
Cash and cash equivalents (including bank balances) are reflected as such in the Cash Flow Statement. Those cash and cash equivalents
which are not available for general use as on the date of Balance Sheet are also included under this category with a specific disclosure.
