73rd ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018
Eight Decades of
Leading
the Change
Chairman’s Statement – Annual Report 2017-18
Dear Shareholders
Across the last eight decades, L&T has kept pace with
technological developments as well as the evolving needs
of the nation. Your Company is, in every sense, leading
the change.
My greetings and good wishes to
you on the 80th anniversary of the
formation of L&T.
The tiny partnership firm set up
on May 1, 1938 is now a leading
engineering & construction
conglomerate, operating at the upper
end of the technology spectrum.
Across the last eight decades, we
have kept pace with technological
developments as well as the evolving
needs of the nation. Your Company
is, in every sense, leading the change.
Economic Scenario
In the last fiscal, the Indian economy
has emerged after grappling boldly
with multiple challenges. Structural
reforms, by their very nature, are
initially disruptive because they
unsettle the existing ways of doing
business, and can often impact public
perceptions negatively. However,
their long-term benefits outweigh
the early tremors. The GST regime
and other reforms such as Insolvency
& Bankruptcy Code, Demonetisation
and RERA are the building blocks of a
healthier, more wholesome economic
environment.
In addition to the volatility sparked
by reform-led change, industry
encountered a host of other
challenges, viz., muted private
sector capex, reduced investment
opportunities in Middle East markets
and the increasing unpredictability of
geo-political developments.
1
On the other hand, some areas of public sector
infrastructure capex have seen strong investment
momentum and several large investment programs have
been initiated. We are also beginning to glimpse the green
shoots of private sector capex revival in the industrial space.
It is expected that the economic reforms initiated by the
Government will expand the tax base, enhance revenues
and in turn spur GDP growth and infrastructure allocations.
With private sector participation in roads, airports, power,
real estate and industrial capex remaining subdued, the
needle of increased investment has largely shifted towards
the public sector. The Government has also been focusing
on development of infrastructure and energy facilities to
drive strong, sustainable economic growth. Rural reform
is receiving the attention it deserves. Larger allocations
towards irrigation, measures to insulate farmers against the
vagaries of the monsoon, rural road connectivity, and the
proverbial last mile in rural electrification are heartening.
Positive markers at the national level include a wider tax
base, increased allocation of share of revenues to states,
strong Balance Sheets of some PSUs and larger quantum of
funding from international development agencies such as
JICA and World Bank. All of them have provided a robust
financial platform for building infrastructure facilities in
the country.
On the global front, the signals are mixed. Major
governments are being lured into populist measures such
as protectionism. Geo-political re-alignments are impacting
traditional trade flows and commodity prices and currencies
experience never-before volatility. Amid all this, we see
encouraging signs of global growth revival.
Performance Overview
Your Company has turned in a commendable performance
on key financial parameters in 2017-18. Even though
awarding of infrastructure projects continued to be
unpredictable in terms of timelines, we registered a
7% growth in fresh order inflows of R 152,908 crores
over inflows in the previous year. The unexecuted Order
Book at the end of 2017-18 stands at R 263,107 crores
which provides good revenue visibility in 2018-19. While
execution was impacted in 2017-18 due to disruptions
2
caused by implementation of GST as well as bottlenecks
in some projects due to tardy customer payments, delayed
clearances, and land acquisition / right of way issue, your
Company clocked revenues of R 119,862 crores. This
translates to a growth of 9.5% on a like-to-like basis over
the previous year after adjusting for Excise Duties which
were subsumed in GST from 1st July 2017 onwards.
Profit after Tax recorded an all-time high of R 7,370 crore –
representing a 22% increase over PAT of 2016-17.
It gives me great pleasure to inform you that the Board
of Directors has recommended a Dividend of R 16.00 per
share. Corresponding dividend in the previous year was
R 14.00 per share.
International Business
The thrust on international business initiated almost two
decades ago has contributed to your Company being
recognized as a marquee player in the Middle East in the
hydrocarbon and infrastructure sectors. This has ensured
that despite fiscal contraction in oil producing countries,
we continued to enjoy business traction throughout
2017-18. The recent spurt in oil prices could trigger an
increased round of investments in the region, opening
possibilities for resurgent growth.
In line with our aim of diversifying the spread of our
international business beyond the Middle East, we are also
actively pursuing opportunities in East and North Africa
Region (including Algeria and Egypt) and other ‘near shore’
geographies of East Asia (Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand,
Vietnam and Sri Lanka). The unexecuted Order Book from
international markets stood at R 62,500 crore, which
translates to 24% of the total Order Book. Of the total
international Order Book, non-GCC business now accounts
for 31% of the Book size.
Digital Future
Leveraging technology across all operations is a prime focus
area. While our digitalization journey will extend far into
the future, some operational benefits are already visible
- better asset utilization, improved labour productivity and
sourcing efficiencies though the use of IoT (Internet of
Things) and other digital solutions. L&T Infotech and
L&T Technology Services are our partners in this initiative,
and your Company expects to continue harvesting the
wide-ranging benefits of digitalization in the years ahead.
Talent Management and Succession Planning
Our Human Resources policies and practices centre around
moulding our employees into leaders in their areas of work.
Your Company’s structured 7-step Leadership Development
Programme plays a key role in helping build a robust
leadership and succession pipeline. A comprehensive
programme for monetary and non-monetary rewards
incentivises excellence.
While I have handed over the reins of day-to-day
operational management to the CEO & MD, I am focusing
on business portfolio rationalisation, mentoring the next
generation of leaders and expanding the outreach of your
Company’s CSR initiatives.
Sustainable Development
The sustainability of business pivots on the quality of the
ecosystem within which it operates. It is therefore a moral
imperative for responsible corporates to actively implement
measures to improve business performance, reduce social
disparities, and mitigate the environmental impact of
industrial development. Our sustainability focus is on
reduction of our carbon footprint and introduction of green
technologies, while improving the lives of the communities
around us through health, education, water & sanitation
and skill-building initiatives.
Total spends on CSR initiatives in 2017-18 by your
Company amounted to R 101 crore under eligible items, as
defined in the Companies Act. This translates to 2% of the
average annual net profits of the Company over the last
three years.
Outlook
India is witnessing the increasing ‘formalisation’ of an
economy which for decades had sections operating below
the radar. Structural reforms such as Demonetisation, GST
and the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code have resulted in
a larger pool of assessees and growth in the volume of
tax collection. The increase in tax revenues should enable
the Government to invest in essential infrastructure on a
sustained basis.
While international business opportunities continue to
remain reasonably healthy, 2018-19 is also expected to
witness strong domestic growth, aided by supportive
fiscal policies and the focused development agenda being
adopted by the Government. Business prospects in different
sectors provide a large canvas of opportunity which could
be tapped in 2018-19. Segments which hold promise in the
current year include:
1) Infrastructure
a) Roads – The Government has committed sizeable
budgetary allocation to augmenting road infrastructure.
We expect this momentum to continue, aided by increased
investments in expressway programs.
b) Railways – A thrust on railway electrification and track
augmentation is paving the way for increased opportunities
in your Company’s railways business. We are geared to tap
these prospects as they develop.
c) Metro Rail – We have been participating in Metro Rail
programs in multiple cities in India and in two projects in
the Middle East. The investment flow continues to gather
pace as more cities adopt mass rapid transit as an effective
and eco-friendly solution to urban traffic congestion.
Continued growth is expected in this business segment.
d) Urban Infrastructure – Your Company is a leader in
providing building solutions across the urban spectrum -
residential real estate, commercial buildings, affordable
housing, hospitals, educational institutions, hotels and
convention centres. While residential buildings have seen
a lull over the last few years, other prospects in this
vertical continue to hold promise. The new frontier in
urban infrastructure is Smart Cities. A growing number of
cities are adopting elements of smart city infrastructure
such as intelligent traffic management and surveillance
systems, smart electric grids & lighting, fibre optic cabling
and transport & logistics systems. Your Company has the
unique advantage of in-house domain expertise to provide
end-to-end offerings to customers. This enables us to play
the role of a Master System Integrator for the Smart Cities
of the future.
3
e) Water Infrastructure – The water sector has seen
sub-optimal investment levels in the past. This could
change for the better, thanks to the growing realization
that ground water is being overexploited and that better
irrigation facilities are essential to provide a sustainable
livelihood for our farmers. Your Company’s diverse
range of offerings in the water sector will benefit from
the Government’s programmes to clean the country’s
major rivers as well as from bulk transmission and water
treatment for municipalities, sewage & effluent treatment
plants, lift irrigation and inland waterways infrastructure.
2) Thermal Power Generation – A slowdown in the
thermal power generation sector across the last few years
has led to aggressive bidding, as competitors vie for the
limited opportunities on offer. Your Company looks forward
to prospects aggregating 6 GW which are likely to be
awarded in the current year, and these constitute targeted
business. We have successfully constructed gas-fired
power plants in Bangladesh and will continue to tap similar
prospects likely to come up in the neighbouring country in
the current year. We also continue to engage with our joint
venture partners for increased international business in our
efforts to increase manufacturing capacity utilisation.
3) Power Transmission & Distribution (PT&D) –
We have built strong business foundations in the PT&D
space in India and the Middle East. Inroads have also been
made into parts of East Africa, Algeria and Egypt. This is in
line with our objective of creating an international PT&D
business covering dispersed geographies. On the domestic
front, the thrust by the Government on strengthening
power grids through Central and State utilities, as well as
intensive electrification of rural households is expected to
yield good business in the current year. We also continue to
see good traction in international business prospects.
4) Hydrocarbon – Oil prices are rebounding from their
historic low points. This will brighten prospects for your
Company’s hydrocarbon business in the Middle East region
which had seen contraction of spends over the last two
years. We have adopted a policy of judicious bidding
for projects with selected customers in the GCC region.
Projects are selected based on a strong customer connect
and the predictable prospects of streamlined execution.
4
Countries being targeted include Saudi Arabia, UAE,
Kuwait, Oman, Algeria and a few in East Asia. On the
domestic front, prospects in offshore production, onshore
refinery capex, fertiliser plants and pipeline projects are a
cause for cheer.
The Company has built up a good order book and
possesses proven capabilities to harness upcoming
prospects.
5) Heavy Engineering – The Heavy Engineering business
faced hurdles over the last few years due to shrinking
global spends on hydrocarbon equipment compounded
by the slow pace of revival of the nuclear power industry.
Prospects for the current year are reasonably strong with
some signs of a higher level of ordering for hydrocarbon
equipment. The Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd.
has also progressed in its plan to build ten new nuclear
power plants using its 700 MW indigenous design. The
commencement of awarding orders for equipment is
encouraging news for the Heavy Engineering business.
6) Electrical & Automation (E&A) – The Electrical &
Automation business continued to record stable operational
indicators in 2017-18. It remains a market leader in many
segments within its wide range of low voltage switchgear.
The range includes Air Circuit Breakers, Moulded Case
Circuit Breakers, Switch Disconnector Fuses and other
electric protection devices for application in industry,
agriculture and segments such as buildings. Its expanding
product spectrum covers building automation systems
including smart meters and energy management systems,
and a range of customised energy distribution solutions.
Business opportunities for the current year are positive,
and likely to stimulate growth.
In line with its strategic plan to exit non-core businesses,
your Company signed an agreement with Schneider Electric
to divest this business, subject to regulatory approvals.
We envisage that these approvals could be forthcoming in
timelines in excess of a year.
7) Realty – This sector has been impacted by
Demonetisation, RERA and the increased financialization
of savings where individuals shift their investments from
real estate or gold to financial assets. While the industry
continues to be weighed down by excess inventory and
low absorption rates, business is gradually improving and
we expect 2018-19 to be better than the last two years in
terms of order inflows and offtake. Your Company intends
to continue with monetisation of its properties in Mumbai,
Bangalore and Chennai, subject to Government approvals.
8) Information Technology and Technology Services
(IT and TS) – After listing of L&T Infotech Ltd (LTI) and L&T
Technology Services (LTTS) in mid-2016-17, the businesses
have recorded above average growth while maintaining
margins and returns on capital. Markets have responded
positively, and have rewarded the IPO shareholders through
capital appreciation. At the heart of the success of both
these subsidiaries is the customer-focused lineage of
Larsen & Toubro. While drawing extensively on the domain
knowledge and operational expertise of their parent
company, they have also leveraged its international client
base which includes global majors.
The focus of the businesses is on increased digital
offerings, with special emphasis on client mining, talent
management, enhanced utilisation of resources and
superior service offering. These listed subsidiaries are well
equipped to address and overcome global challenges
including increasing protectionist policies while maintaining
healthy shareholder returns.
9) Financial Services – This business, which was listed
in 2011, continues to perform well, and had a loan book
of R 83,654 crore at the end of 2017-18, representing a
strong Year-on-Year growth of 26%. Its growth momentum
continues in both lending and investment management
where the average AUM has risen to R 66,000 crore
in 2017-18. Digital and data analytics have facilitated
operations even as growth in focused businesses, asset
quality, fee income and operational excellence measures
are enabling the business to increase returns on capital.
Equity capital was raised in end-2017-18, and your
Company subscribed to the equity issue in order to
maintain its equity stakes since it believes that growth
capital infusion will be return accretive.
10) Development Projects – Your Company owns
a portfolio of concession assets comprising roads, a
transmission line, power generation, a container port
and a metro rail. The metro rail project and some hydel
plant projects are currently under construction. In the
current year, we have divested five road concessions to an
Investment Trust, and will continue to evaluate options for
monetisation of value created in the remaining concession
assets.
Strategic Plan
Your Company formulated its 5-year strategic plan –
LAKSHYA - spanning the years from 2016-17 to 2020-21
(both years inclusive), and has largely been on track in
execution of this plan. The overarching goal is to enhance
Return on Equity (RoE). Levers to achieve this include
maintaining steady growth in revenues with improvement
in margins, control on working capital, divestment of
non-core businesses, endeavouring to turn around
under-utilised facilities, minimising capital expenditure,
avoiding investment in long gestation or asset heavy
businesses and higher pay-outs to shareholders. Both
2016-17 and 2017-18 have shown that our efforts are
yielding positive results. Your Company is confident of
continuing its RoE enhancement journey during the
current year as well.
I would like to conclude by thanking Team L&T as well
as our customers, vendors and other stakeholders who
have made it possible for your Company to maintain its
trajectory of growth during a challenging phase of the
Indian economy. I also wish to thank my fellow Board
members for their invaluable support.
Thank You.

Corporate
Social
Responsibility
Contributing towards Social Development and
Growth
L&T is an engineering and construction conglomerate with
a concern for the community. Building on many decades
of social responsibility activities, the company contributes
to inclusive growth by empowering communities and
accelerating development through interventions in water
& sanitation, health, education and skill development. L&T-
eering, a structured volunteering programme, inspires and
empowers employee volunteers or L&T-eers to contribute
their time to community development programmes
supported by the Company, thereby enhancing social
impact even further. The employees’ wives and female
employees power the Prayas Trust, driving CSR initiatives
in their own capacity and reaching out to remote
communities.
Even before the CSR section was introduced in the
Companies Act 2013, L&T had been interacting with the
community around L&T facilities and providing health,
education and skills development services to those who
needed it most.
In 2014 we consolidated our CSR programmes with a
focus on certain development areas that align with the
national development agenda and the global sustainable
development goals. Through the CSR theme ‘Building
India’s Social Infrastructure’ we are pleased to contribute
to the social change in India. Here is a snapshot of our CSR
interventions across four key thrust areas.
Water & Sanitation
- meeting the bare necessities
The Integrated Community Development Program of
L&T started in 2014-15, focused on making water –
the very ‘necessity of life’ – available to four water
stressed districts in Rajasthan, Maharashtra and Tamil
Nadu, covering 11006 households across an area of
9337 hectares. With an agenda focused on community
empowerment through Integrated Community
Development, we have ensured water availability for
drinking, sanitation and agriculture
Interventions
• The water and soil conservation structures like check
dams, anicuts, contour trenches, farm bunds and
farm ponds constructed with the participation and
contribution of the community, helped in increasing
the water level in the water bodies in these villages
and retain soil moisture.
Water conservation structures built to meet domestic needs, Chettipalayam, Tamil Nadu.

• The community groups like Village Development
Committees (VDCs) with 50 per cent participation
from women and Self Help Groups (SHGs) were created.
They assumed the responsibility to maintain the
structures created through the project
• Farmers were trained in agricultural practices with
optimal use of water and use of zero budget natural
fertilisers to retain the fertility of the land.
The community members also devised methods that
improve the arability of land.
Sanitation drives
The Swachha Bharat Program of GOI, gave the necessary
impetus to initiate the sanitation drive in villages.
L&T trained local youth in masonry skills and used local
materials to achieve the following:
• Construction of over than 970 well-designed toilet-cum
-bathrooms
• Community-based monitoring committees to deter open
defecation
• L&T received ISC-FICCI sanitation award for Best
Corporate Initiative in Sanitation this year.
Impact
• Access to water for drinking, sanitation, irrigation,
cultivation of fodder and extra crops
• Two revenue villages and 13 hamlets are open
defecation free, benefitting 1100 households
• Improved economies, for 11000 households,
raising the aspirations of the people.
• Chettipalayam watershed project, South Coimbatore,
enabled water holding of 47 lakh litres in one year and
made 18 hectares of barren land cultivable
Education
- the mainstay of progress
We commit ourselves to make quality education accessible
to each and every child by introducing relevant curriculum,
improving teaching methods and ensuring parent and
community participation in creating learning environment.
Interventions
Basic Infrastructural support includes construction or
repair of the classrooms, toilet blocks and water
stations for basic hygiene facilities, midday meal
kitchens and sports ground.
Educational support: Supplies such as uniforms,
textbooks, notebooks and sports kits are provided to under
privileged students in government and unaided low-income
schools in rural and tribal villages.
Balwadi program: L&T strengthens early childhood
development program by improving the quality of
balwadis and anganwadis in urban slums and rural
areas, ensuring entry into the mainstream education system
and improved enrolment in the primary schools.
• Supplementary food is provided in tribal balwadis.
• Toy vans visiting anganwadis provide necessary
childhood development activities
• Training of Trainers for Balwadi teachers for
capacity building.

Toilet Blocks at Lasadiya, Bhim, Rajasthan

Afterschool community study centres offer
supplementary education and reach out to the first-
generation learners and children from weaker sections.
• Efforts are directed towards designing a curriculum
for easy learning that is aligned with the school
curriculum.
Focus on Science Innovation and Technology:
• L&T has supported Government initiatives and
sponsored Mini Science Centres in rural schools,
simplifying complex scientific concepts
• A Science on Wheels program reaches out to
3293 children in 17 schools, encouraging students
to develop interest in science and technology-related
subjects.
• To facilitate the access of e-learning technology to

SECTION E
PRINCIPLE 1: BUSINESSES SHOULD
CONDUCT AND GOVERN THEMSELVES
WITH ETHICS, TRANSPARENCY AND
ACCOUNTABILITY
L&T’s rich legacy of a transparent and just governance
system, disclosure practices and integrity are the bedrock
of the Company’s business philosophy. Larsen & Toubro
is a professionally managed Indian multinational with
a focus on enhancing stakeholder’s value through
committed customer satisfaction. The vision and
corporate polices of the company are extended to all
subsidiaries and associate companies.
L&T has adopted the Code of Conduct (CoC) for
employees, including board members, to remain
consistently vigilant and ensure ethical conduct of
its operations. All employees are required to comply
with the CoC and are required to provide an annual
declaration of their adherence to it. This enhances the
understanding of CoC amongst employees as well as
infuses in them a sense of ownership for their actions.
Employees and relevant stakeholders are trained
and otherwise made aware of the CoC as well as
amendments to it.
The CEO & MD makes an annual declaration to the
shareholders regarding the senior management’s
compliance with the CoC. It is available on the
Company’s website – www.Larsentoubro.com.
All new joinees are made aware of the CoC as a part of
their induction program. An online mode is also available
on L&T’s ‘Any Time Learning’ application. The key aspects
of the CoC are covered in L&T’s HR orientation training
modules – SWAGAT and PRAYAG for Graduate Engineer
Trainee (GETs) / Post Graduate Engineer Trainee (PGET).
An Apex Committee is responsible for ensuring
implementation of the CoC across the Company. The
Committee handles non-compliance instances as well
as guides the unit-level CoC committee. The Apex
committee also acts, interacts and coordinates with the
Executive Committee (E Com) on all issues pertaining to
the CoC. The Apex Committee comprises a minimum of
five senior members. The Compliance Officer also acts as
the Ex-Officio of the Apex Committee.
24
Codified policies publicly affirm the organisation’s commitment,
govern actions and provide clarity of direction
The unit-level CoC Committee comprises four members
from HR, Operations and Accounts, and is supervised
by the Unit Head. This Committee meets at least once
a quarter. The role of the Unit Committee is to create
awareness amongst employees, motivate them to
adhere to the CoC, monitor the compliance, investigate
instances of non-compliance and report to the Apex
body. Good corporate governance practices are imbibed
by the employees and have become a way of life. It
ultimately enhances the brand value of Larsen & Toubro.
A vigilance mechanism is in place for directors and
employees to report their concerns about actual or
suspected fraud, unethical behaviour or violation
of the Company’s CoC. This is ensured through the
Whistle-Blower policy – an effective tool available for
employees to report, without fear, instances related to
non-compliance, any wrong practice, unethical behaviour
or improper practice which may have an adverse impact
on the Company or cause financial loss to the Company.
The Whistle-Blower Investigation Committee and the
management maintain anonymity of the whistle-blower
at all times. During 2017-18, a total of 32 complaints
were received, 75% of these were investigated and dealt
with in accordance with the Company’s protocol and
25% are under review. Details relating to stakeholder
complaints are included in the Director’s Report Section
of this Annual Report.
There is a Combined CoC for suppliers which covers
specific aspects of environmental management and
compliance, labour practices, human rights, freedom of
association and collective bargaining, prohibition of child
labour, prohibition of forced and compulsory labour,
impact on society, ethics, transparency and business
processes.
Every new supplier / vendor must sign this CoC before
doing any business with L&T. Since 2016, more than
18,000 suppliers have signed this Combined CoC.
Capacity-building programmes for vendors and sub-
contractors are conducted by the company and the
programme provides training on EHS, business process
improvement and sustainability.
The Company also ensures compliance by its vendors
and contractors through periodical assessment, quality
inspection and EHS audits.
PRINCIPLE 2: BUSINESSES SHOULD
PROVIDE GOODS AND SERVICES
THAT ARE SAFE AND CONTRIBUTE TO
SUSTAINABILITY THROUGHOUT THEIR
LIFE-CYCLE
L&T ensures that environment, health and safety aspects
are taken into consideration at the design stage itself,
while manufacturing products or providing services
to customers. It is our endeavour to provide safe and
sustainable goods and services to our clients. Our
business portfolio consists of infrastructure, energy (oil
& gas / power), defence, heavy engineering, electrical
& automation products, hydrocarbon projects, IT,
technological services and financial services. Sustainability
aspects, including lower emissions and resource
conservation, are integrated into our engineering and
design. The Company also provides training to customers
and customers’ personnel in the safe use and handling of
products.
L&T offers conservation-based products and projects,
such as Green Buildings, wastewater treatment and
recycling plants and solar-PV-based power plants. These
help our clients prevent pollution and conserve resources.
At our own campuses, we have 17 certified Green
buildings including one green factory. Our 24 campuses
have adopted the zero-wastewater discharge approach
and continue to ensure water positive status. Energy
efficiency programs and climate change mitigation
From world-class airports to metro systems, L&T’s sustainable infrastructure helps people travel with ease
25
25
measures are extensively implemented across L&T,
contributing towards greener campuses and project sites.
Renewable energy is harnessed at campuses and project
sites as well.
Our green product and services portfolio consists of
metro rail projects, efficient power transmission and
distribution systems, small hydro-electric power stations,
solar-PV-based power plants, green buildings, energy
efficient equipment (power management systems, AC
drives, smart metering), water treatment & distribution
infrastructure, supercritical and ultra-supercritical thermal
power plants and equipment and coal gasifiers. Our
green portfolio is focused on minimising environmental
impact, e.g. reduced water consumption, carbon
emissions and material consumption and reduced
waste-generation. These help our clients to move on the
low-carbon economy path.
The Company extensively participates in the ‘Make
in India’ programme and promotes local sourcing of
products and services. The transportation of material
at the project sites is optimized based on the project
execution stage. Many of our infrastructure projects are
at remote locations, and therefore goods and services are
procured from local producers and surrounding areas as
far as possible.
L&T has adopted the 3R (Reduce, Recycle & Recover)
principle for material conservation. Material recycling
and use of alternative material (in place of natural
material) is extensively practiced by our infrastructure
business. The Sustainability Roadmap 2021 targets
increasing recycling / use of recycled material by 5%.
Fly ash substitutes cement, crushed sand is used in place
of natural sand, and blast furnace slag is used. These are
some of the conservation methods extensively practiced
at project sites. However, since most of our products are
‘engineered to order’ and based on customer-specific
requirement, the use of recycled material for products is
limited.
PRINCIPLE 3: BUSINESS SHOULD
PROMOTE WELL-BEING OF EMPLOYEES
The Company’s growth truly depends upon the growth
of employees within the organization. The commitment
of employees, their enthusiasm and dedication helps L&T
to become a truly global conglomerate. The Company
nurtures its talent through its leadership program,
training, motivation and rewarding performance. The
Corporate Human Resources Policy has set up a strong
framework for workforce management. Fostering a
culture of caring and trust are other corporate policies
like the Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) Policy,
Whistle-Blower policy, Protection of Women’s Rights at
Workplace and the CoC.
L&T does not discriminate against employees based on
caste, religion, region, gender or physical disability and
merit of candidates is always accorded top priority for
selection and promotion. L&T adheres to be UNGC
(United Nation Global Compact) principles which includes
Human Rights clauses. These causes are part of our
contracts with suppliers, partners, NGOs and extended
across our supply chain.

of an employee’s career progress. L&T trains employees

available for employees anytime and at any place. The
training modules are diverse. They are prepared by
subject experts and culled from various knowledge
sources. ATL courses are interactive, engaging and
user-friendly. This year, ATLNext, a learning process
automation and analytical platform, has been introduced.
This intelligent and adaptive learning platform makes
learning personal and compelling.
The Leadership Development Academy (LDA) at Lonavala
has been identified as a unique corporate university in
India. It is a symbol of value for L&T as it helps people
develop and grow by providing the right infrastructure,
ambience and services to aid and enhance learning.
The LDA has been recognized as a ‘Research Centre’ by
Symbiosis International University. It enables employees to
pursue their Ph. D. programmes. In addition, various
functional, technical and managerial training programmes
are provided to employees through technical training
centres from Mumbai (Madh and Mahape), Mysore and
Project Management Institutes (Vadodara and Chennai).
Safety of the workforce is given top-most priority in all
activities across facilities and project sites. Every task, job
or assignment must be performed in a safe manner only.
This is the basis of our work execution. We have a
structured approach towards safety, with assigned
individual objectives. Management commitment to safety
is demonstrated through our approach and is visible while
taking business decisions.
Our focus area is effective implementation of health and
safety practices in line with our ‘Zero Accident Vision’.

L&T maps both internal and external stakeholders along
with vulnerable, marginalized and disadvantaged
stakeholders. This enables us to understand that our
stakeholders comprise a large and mixed community with
varied and extended expectations, and L&T always strives
to match their expectations.
L&T engages regularly with stakeholders through various
programmes as they are a central part of L&T’s
decision-making process. Being a professionally managed
organization, our constant quest is to create value for all
stakeholders and at the same time, serve the wider interests
of society. Our dedicated Corporate Brand Management
& Communication (CBMC) department facilitates the
continuous dialogue between stakeholders and the
Company.
L&T is a pioneer in providing an anti-depression help-line
for its employees in India in collaboration with Tata Institute
of Social Science (TISS).
Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) department
runs specific programmes focused on providing livelihood
opportunities to vulnerable and marginalized stakeholders,
both near and away from our campuses and project sites
to ensure that the benefits reach the maximum number of
beneficiaries.
One of our flagship CSR programmes is ‘Integrated
Community Development (ICD)’ which focuses on
improving the quality of life of communities living in the
‘water-stressed’ regions of India. The ICD programme
works towards providing access to clean drinking water,
sanitation facilities and water for agriculture in water-
stressed regions. It is followed up with CSR interventions
in health, education and skill-building.
It aims to create a safer work environment for our
employees, contractors and customers through rigorous
systems, procedures and firm implementation. This is also
extended to our supply chain partners as well. Our
Corporate Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) policy
articulates our commitment towards building a safe
workplace and defines protocols to be followed by each
business across India and abroad. The safety performance
of the Company is reviewed on a quarterly basis by the
Company’s Board.
Regular safety training is undertaken, including Tool Box
Talks, emergency mock drills and specific safety
interventions. New employees are introduced to the aspects
of safety and all contract workmen receive mandatory
safety training before commencement of work. L&T is
the first corporate organization in India to be accredited
as ‘Course Provider’ by National Examination Board in
Occupational Safety & Health (NEBOSH), United Kingdom
(UK) for delivering International General Certificate and by
Institution of Occupational Safety & Health (IOSH), UK for
delivering their course.
More than 3.8 million man-hours of safety training were
provided in FY 2017-18 to our workforce. Our wellness
program ‘Working on Wellness’ is a unique initiative
undertaken by Corporate Health and Welfare
Department, which conducts counselling, awareness
sessions, health programs, diagnostics camps and health
workshop activities aimed at enhance employees’ wellness
and well-being at office. These health interventions are

Our Combined CoC for suppliers and vendors covers
Human Rights clauses, and all new suppliers must
confirm their adherence to these clauses before they can

Principle 6: Business should respect,
protect and make efforts to restore the
environment
Environment protection and the conservation of natural
resources are part of L&T’s business philosophy. Our
Corporate Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) Policy lays
emphasis on incorporating environmental consideration
into all business processes. As a part of our Sustainability
programme, we set quantifiable targets with a timeline
and action plan to achieve them since 2009. Our
Sustainability Roadmap 2021 is aligned with our business
plan, LAKSHYA 2021, which consists of measurable
targets and key initiatives. The Sustainability Roadmap
is extended to S&A companies and they are encouraged
to set similar targets for themselves. Periodically,
environmental risks and opportunities are identified
from operations and addressed at the business level. We
take our sustainability practices to our supply chain to
create awareness and bring them abreast with current
environmental issues (at regional and global level) and
how these can adversely impact their operations. We also
Our water conservation efforts have resulted in all 24 of L&T’s campuses being water positive

share with our vendors, opportunities made available by
following sustainability practices and its benefit to them.
More than 18,000 suppliers have signed our combined
CoC, which is the first step towards following a
structured sustainability programme in our supply chain.
We continue to conduct water assessment surveys at
our major campuses. All 24 campuses maintained their
‘Water Positive’ status in 2017-18. Water conservation
and rain water harvesting are practiced within our
premises; additionally our community interventions
consist of rain water harvesting, check dam construction,
creation of farm ponds, soil moisture conservation
programmes, etc. The results are very encouraging.
Our 24 campuses have been maintaining zero
wastewater discharge status since 2014, and our
community intervention programmes have helped us to
conserve more than 2800 million litres of water annually.
Our climate change interventions programme focuses
on climate change mitigation and abatement. We focus
on reducing the energy consumption intensity (GJ/billion
turnover), implementing energy conservation projects
and increasing the use of renewable energy at our
operations. We also intend to reduce our GHG intensity
(tonnes of GHG emissions/billion turnover).
This year, we achieved Carbon Neutrality for two of
our Campuses, i.e. Powai (Mumbai) and Chennai.
We have aligned our practices with Government
of India’s National Action Plan on Climate Change
(NAPCC) and its eight Missions, and its annual progress
is published in our Sustainability Report. Increased
Tree plantation initiatives across L&T campuses help create natural carbon sinks

building sustainable infrastructure, increasing green
cover and dissemination of sustainability knowledge are
adopted by the organization. We invest in lower emission
and cleaner programmes, thus promoting sustainable
growth. Our green product and services portfolio helps
our clients to reduce their carbon footprint.
We comply with applicable environmental regulatory
requirements from the State Pollution Control Board
(SPCB) and Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).
Quarterly compliance is submitted by each business
and checked by the Corporate Secretarial department.
In addition, annual sustainability assurance by an
independent assurance agency covers compliance to
environmental regulations, including submission of the
compliance report to the regulatory agency. During
2017-18, there were no pending or unresolved show
cause / legal notices from CPCB / SPCB.
Renewable energy at manufacturing campuses is utilized,
wherever feasible. Currently, six campuses are sourcing
renewable energy (wind and solar) from external sources,
and all 24 campuses are generating renewable energy
onsite.
Fully-grown trees are natural carbon sinks, and
biodiversity plays an important role in sustenance
of human lives on this planet. L&T undertakes tree
plantation both within and outside its premises (as part

vi) Training & Succession Planning:
The Company has institutionalized
Leadership Development through a Seven
Step leadership pipeline for development of a
robust stage-wise leadership by a structured
process of talent management. The
thrust is on facilitating the transformation
of managers into leaders, leaders into
‘corporate entrepreneurs (intrapreneurs)’
and to create a large pool of leaders who
can envision, inspire, and successfully deploy
global growth strategies thus creating a
result-oriented culture of multiplying value.
Each step of this Leadership pipeline
development process has been meticulously
customized to equip managers at various
levels, with the required knowledge, skill
& mind-set to transition seamlessly to
the next level of leadership and global
entrepreneurship. In this effort, the Company
has partnered with globally renowned senior
faculty and premier institutes like Harvard
Business School, INSEAD, IIM Ahmedabad,
and Stephen M. Ross School of Business-
University of Michigan. The programs are
designed to provide inputs on vital areas
of strategic importance such as innovation
based strategies, integrated business models
to take on global multinationals, cross-
cultural challenges, organic and inorganic
growth etc., and thus mark an important
milestone in the journey towards leadership
development in the global context.
To facilitate enhanced global acumen &
international exposure, which are critical
competencies for establishing a global
footprint, the Company continues to
nominate select senior leaders for Advanced
Management Programs offered by globally
renowned business schools like INSEAD,
Wharton, Harvard, IMD, London Business
School, Oxford and the likes. As a part
of Leadership development at the top
echelons of the organization, a structured
& systematic approach to mentoring has
been initiated to leverage on the leadership
experiences & networks of senior leaders and
to enable them to leave a legacy of success
mantras.
In order to continuously monitor the
progress of high potentials (HIGH POTS)
who go through the Seven Step Leadership
Development process and to ensure that
they are given challenging roles and
responsibilities, a Top Talent Management
System is also put in place which is essential
to ensure progress of a strong leadership
pipeline.
To ensure that the Company has sufficient
pool of probable employees who can be
nominated for Leadership Pipeline, efforts
are taken at the grass root level. There
exists several structured core developmental
programs, conducted by reputed institutions
like IIM-Bangalore, IIM-Calcutta, XLRI,
Symbiosis and NMIMS for deserving
77
employees to develop superior management
skills and capabilities. A host of strategic
and behavioural programs are conducted to
address specific training and developmental
needs of employees. A comprehensive
e-learning portal ATL (Any Time Learning) is
available with multiple on-line programs and
courses for employees to enable learning ‘at
any time, at any place’ at locations remote
or otherwise. The portal provides access to
on-line data bases, references, management
videos, e-books and journals.
The NRC reviews on a periodic basis the
succession planning process being followed
by the Company especially at the level of the
Board and senior management.

iv) CSR Activities & Impact Assessment:
The Company is leveraging its countrywide
presence to reduce disparities through
interventions in Water and sanitation,
Healthcare, Education and Skill building.
Close interactions with the local community
members have enabled the Company to
identify and address their most pressing
needs and the social interventions for
community development have been
specifically aligned.
Under flagship program of “Integrated
Community Development” (ICD), the
Company has launched programs towards

holistic development in the following areas
based on need assessment:
zz Water & Sanitation: For the availability
of safe drinking water and proper
sanitation facilities

Education: To improve access to
education (increased enrollment in pre-
school, children attending neighborhood
schools) and improving quality of
learning (better school infrastructure,
better teaching-learning process)
Health: Improvement in access
to quality health care (expanding
infrastructure of health centres,
increased number of people availing
quality health care)
Skill development: Enhancing
employability of youth (enhancing
training capacity, improved
infrastructure of skill development
centres).
Thirty Village Development Committees
(VDCs) have been formed across locations,
with participation from women. A quarterly
review of the ICD projects is done with the
village Panchayats and local authorities.
Access to cleaner water, hygienic
surroundings, better health, education and
new skills, has altered the lives of around 1
million individuals through our CSR Programs
in 2017-18.
All CSR projects have defined goals and
milestones which are tracked as per the
periodicity defined for the project. The
progress is compared with the baseline data
that is gathered before the commencement
of the project. This is carried out through
an onsite evaluation as well as the reports
generated from the project. The indirect
impacts that accrue are also factored and
documented in the monthly reporting
process. These are subsequently vetted /
measured during the external Social Audit or
Impact Assessment. The social audit report is
discussed during the Committee meetings.

b) Risk Management Framework:
Please refer to Page 56 of the Board Report.
a) Directors’ Familiarization Program:
c) Vigil Mechanism / Whistle Blower Policy :
All our directors are aware and are also
updated as and when required, of their role,
responsibilities & liabilities.
The Company has a Whistle Blower Policy in
place since April 2004. The said policy was
modified in line with the requirements of the
81
Vigil Mechanism under the Companies Act, 2013.
The Company has a Whistle Blower Investigation
Committee (WBIC) to manage complaints from
“Identified” Whistle Blowers. In addition, WBIC
considers “Anonymous” complaints which in
their judgement are serious in nature and require
investigation. The WBIC has four members viz.
Chief Financial Officer, Company Secretary, Head-
Corporate HR and Chief Internal Auditor. The
WBIC is responsible for end to end management
of the investigations from receipt of complaints
to bringing them to a logical conclusion, keeping
in mind the interest of the Company.
Employees are encouraged to report any
wrong-doings having an adverse effect on the
Company’s financials / image. An employee can
report any wrong-doing in oral or written form.
Whistle-blowers are assured by the management
of full protection from any kind of harassment,
retaliation, victimization or unfair treatment.
Complaints under the Whistle Blower Policy are
received by the Corporate Audit Services of the
Company. The Chief Internal Auditor reviews
the same and convenes a meeting of the WBIC
for discussions. The WBIC, after screening
the complaint, decides on the further course
of action which will include requesting the
complainant to provide further details, internal
investigation by the Internal Audit department,
investigation by external agencies, wherever
necessary, opportunity to the defendant to
present his / her case, etc. Based on the findings
of the investigation, the WBIC decides the action
to be taken and recommends the same to the
Executive Committee for implementation.
The WBIC meets formally and reviews the
complaints and their progress. In addition,
discussions also take place over video-
conferencing, telephone and emails amongst the
WBIC members.
The Audit Committee is periodically briefed about
the various cases received, the status of the
investigation, findings and action taken, if any.
During the year, the Company has investigated
the complaints received under the Whistle Blower
Policy and suitable action has been taken against
employees, wherever necessary.
Also please refer to pages 58 and 59 of the Board
Report.
d) Statutory Auditors:

Committee, comprising of the Chairman of the
Audit Committee, the CFO and the Company

to this Committee. The Committee considers
factors such as compliance with the legal
provisions, number / nature / size and variation
in client base, skill sets available in the firm both
at partner level and staff level, international
experience, systems and processes followed by
the firm, training and development by the firm
to its partners and staff, etc. during the process
of evaluation. Based on merit and the factors
mentioned above, the Committee finalizes the

DIVIDEND DISTRIBUTION POLICY
INTRODUCTION
As per Regulation 43A of the Securities and Exchange
Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure
Requirements) Regulations, 2015, prescribed Listed
Companies are required to frame a Dividend Distribution
Policy.
PURPOSE
The purpose of this Policy is to regulate the process of
dividend declaration and its pay-out by the Company
which would ensure a regular dividend income for the
shareholders and long term capital appreciation for all
stakeholders of the Company.
AUTHORITY
This Policy has been adopted by the Board of Directors of
Larsen & Toubro Limited (‘the Company’) at its Meeting
held on 22nd November, 2016. The Policy shall also be
displayed in the annual reports and also on the website of
the Company.
FORMS OF DIVIDENDS
The Companies Act provides for two forms of Dividend:
•
Final Dividend
The final dividend is paid once for the financial
year after the annual accounts are prepared. The
Board of Directors of the Company has the power
to recommend the payment of final dividend to the
shareholders for their approval at the general meeting
of the Company. The declaration of final dividend
shall be included in the ordinary business items that
are required to be transacted at the Annual General
Meeting.
•
Interim Dividend
This form of dividend can be declared by the Board of
Directors one or more times in a financial year as may
be deemed fit by it. The Board of Directors shall have
the absolute power to declare interim dividend during
the financial year, in line with this policy. The Board
should consider declaring an interim dividend after
finalization of quarterly/ half yearly financial results.
This would be in order to supplement the annual
dividend or to reward shareholders in exceptional
circumstances.
QUANTUM OF DIVIDEND AND DISTRIBUTION
Dividend payout in a particular year shall be determined
after considering the operating and financial performance
140
of the Company and the cash requirement for financing
the Company’s future growth. In line with the past
practice, the payout ratio is expected to grow in
accordance with the profitable growth of the Company
under normal circumstances.
DECLARATION OF DIVIDEND
Dividend shall be declared or paid only out of-
1) Current financial year’s profit:
a) after providing for depreciation in accordance
with law;
b) after transferring to reserves such amount as may
be prescribed or as may be otherwise considered
appropriate by the Board at its discretion
2) The profits for any previous financial year(s) after
providing for depreciation in accordance with law and
remaining undistributed; or
3) out of 1) & 2) both.
The circumstances under which shareholders may not
expect dividend/when the dividend could not be declared
by the Company shall include, but are not limited to, the
following:
a. Due to operation of any other law in force;
b. Due to losses incurred by the Company and the Board
considers it appropriate not to declare dividend for
any particular year;
c. Due to any restrictions and covenants contained in
any agreement as may be entered with the Lenders
and
d. Due to any default on part of the Company.
FACTORS AFFECTING DIVIDEND DECLARATION:
The Dividend pay-out decision of any company, depends
upon certain external and internal factors-
External Factors:
•
Legal/ Statutory Provisions and Regulatory concern:
The Board should keep in mind the restrictions
imposed by Companies Act, any other applicable
laws with regard to declaration and distribution
of dividend. Further, any restrictions on payment
of dividends by virtue of any regulation as may be
applicable to the Company may also impact the
declaration of dividend.
•
State of Economy: The Board will endeavor to retain
larger part of profits to build up reserves to absorb
future shocks in case of uncertain or recessionary
economic conditions and in situation where the policy
decisions of the Government have a bearing on or
affect the business of the Company.
•
• Nature of Industry: The nature of industry in which
a company is operating, influences the dividend
decision. Like the industries with stable demand
throughout the year are in a position to have stable
earnings and thus declare stable dividends.
•
Taxation Policy: The tax policy of a country also
influences the dividend policy of a company. The
rate of tax directly influences the amount of profits
available to the Company for declaring dividends.
• Capital Markets: In case of unfavorable market
conditions, Board may resort to a conservative
dividend pay-out in order to conserve cash outflows
and reduce the cost of raising funds through alternate
resources.
Internal Factors:
Apart from the various external factors, the Board shall
take into account various internal factors including the
financial parameters while declaring dividend, which inter
alia will include -
• Magnitude and Stability of Earnings: The extent of
stability and magnitude of company’s earnings will
directly influence the dividend declaration. Thus, the
dividend is directly linked with the availability of the
earnings (including accumulated earnings) with the
Company.
•
Liquidity Position: A company’s liquidity position also
determines the level of dividend. If a company does
not have sufficient cash resources to make dividend
payment, then it may reduce the amount of dividend
pay-out.
Future Requirements: If a company foresees some
profitable investment opportunities in near future
including but not limited to Brand/ Business
Acquisitions, Expansion/Modernization of existing
businesses, Additional investments in subsidiaries/
associates of the Company, Fresh investments into
external businesses, then it may decide for lower
dividend payout and vice-versa.
•
Leverage profile and liabilities of the Company.
• Any other factor as deemed fit by the Board.
RETAINED EARNINGS
The portion of profits not distributed among the
shareholders but retained and used in business are termed
as retained earnings. It is also referred to as ploughing
back of profit. The Company should ensure to strike
the right balance between the quantum of dividend
paid and amount of profits retained in the business for
various purposes. These earnings may be utilized for
internal financing of its various projects and for fixed as
well as working capital. Thus the retained earnings shall
be utilized for carrying out the main objectives of the
Company and maintaining adequate liquidity levels.
PARAMETERS THAT SHALL BE ADOPTED WITH
REGARD TO VARIOUS CLASSES OF SHARE
The Company does not have different classes of shares
and follows the ‘one share, one vote’ principle.
REVIEW & AMENDMENT
The Policy shall be reviewed as and when required
to ensure that it meets the objectives of the relevant
legislation and remains effective. The Executive
Management Committee has the right to change/amend
the policy as may be expedient taking into account the law
for the time being in force.

Management
Discussion and
Analysis
Indian economy
The domestic market had its fair share of upheavals in
the financial year under review. A combination of deferral
of award decisions and the implementation of long term
reforms causing short term economic turbulence have led
to a muted environment for project execution. For example,
the introduction of GST from 1st July, 2017 caused
disruption for a few quarters during which time businesses
and Government agencies grappled with this new nation-
wide taxation system. Other reform measures such as
Demonetisation, RERA and the Insolvency & Bankruptcy
Code have also impacted business momentum in the short
term, but are expected to lead to sustained economic
growth in the long run.
Some positive effects have already started being felt
through higher tax revenues and the gradual formalisation
of the economy with its consequent widening of the
tax base. This is likely to give the Central Government
better wherewithal to allocate higher levels of funding
for essential infrastructure projects. These investments
are being supplemented by increased State Government
spending, greater capex by financially strong PSUs and
increased quantum of soft lending by bi-lateral and multi-
lateral lending agencies.
Some areas of public sector infrastructure capex have seen
strong investment momentum and some large investment
programs have been kicked off. The thrust of the
Government on roads, conventional and metro railways,
water management systems and irrigation projects, power
generation facilities, power transmission & distribution,
affordable housing, healthcare facilities, build out of smart
148
148
city infrastructure, and tying up of energy security through
stronger oil & gas infrastructure has given an impetus to
domestic awards during the year.
Rural development
The Government has also been focusing on developing
core infrastructure in rural areas, mainly focused on roads,
power availability to rural households through intensive
electrification, irrigation of cultivable land and direct
transfer of subsidies to families in the BPL segment through
the expanding base of Jan Dhan Bank Accounts linked with
Aadhar. Considerable headway has been made in all these
areas and millions of rural people have been lifted out of
the ‘BPL zone’ over the last few years.
Global economic scenario
International markets have witnessed noticeable volatility,
triggered by geo-political events, significant movements in
currency and commodities, protectionist policies including
tariff barriers, a prolonged bout of low oil prices, and
constrained fiscal positions of oil producing nations. The
recent hardening of oil prices is likely to now give better
leeway to policy makers in GCC countries to allocate
increased outlay on essential infrastructure.
The Company has also been reducing its dependence on
business from the Middle East and is focusing on expanding
business in East & North Africa Region (including Algeria
and Egypt) as well as East Asian countries.
Private sector investments
Private sector investments have remained muted and are
expected to take some more time before a wholesome
revival can be seen across sectors like Infrastructure PPP,
industrial capex, consumption driven capex and real estate
growth. The growing impact of non-performing loans on
the balance sheets of banks continues to impact the credit
growth of the banking system.
Focus on long term profitable growth
The ongoing initiatives currently under way include a focus
on digitalization, strengthening execution and operational
efficiency, unlocking business value, better asset utilisation,
judicious use of working capital, business portfolio
rationalisation and higher shareholder payouts are enabling
the company to perform well on key parameters and
improve Returns on Equity.

Infrastructure Business Scenario
Indian Construction Sector
Infrastructure in India has come a long way with
consolidation in the last 2 years (i.e.) 2015 – 2017. Order
awards especially from the Government including both
State and Central have further triggered the momentum in
the current year (2018), which is expected to drive robust
topline growth of the construction sector in the coming
years, given the conversion cycle.
Furthermore, Budget 2018-19 is a pragmatic effort,
fine balancing the requirement of fiscal rectitude while
keeping in focus the need to connect the missing links in
infrastructure and farm sector development.
The budget has reiterated the need for infrastructure
investments as the ‘sine qua non’ for sustained growth
with a requirement of R 50 lakh crore, which has to come
partly from the the Government but importantly through
‘crowding in’ of investments from the private sector. Much
stress has been laid on urbanization through adoption of
smart cities and smart infrastructure and construction of
large linear infrastructure projects in transportation like
‘Bharat Mala’, aviation and ports. More importantly, the
attendant structural reforms through the adoption of the
IBC and clear emphasis on recapitalization of the banking
system and strategic disinvestment targets reflected the
long term commitment of the Government. Such incentives
will release risk capital, lower risk averseness of the financial
sector and lead to the upturn of the private capex cycle.
Global Construction Sector
The global infrastructure segment is more buoyant than
it has been for the last few years and the sentiment is
positive. Global construction stepped into its stride in
2017 as the economic backdrop brightened and boosted
optimism. The USA is enjoying rapid economic growth,
European markets are catching up and China continues to
surprise.
IMF forecasts global GDP to increase by 3.9 percent in
2018. The construction sector has a strong correlation with
economic growth. Construction’s share of the economy
expands in greater proportion when GDP rises above a
moderate rate. Increasing construction activity around
the globe is expected to drive with global growth gaining
momentum and more importantly developed economies
still accounting for about half of global construction.
Finally, though the sharp rise in crude prices is a double
edged sword, this raises expectations for the oil and gas
sector and infrastructure development in the middle East
which would auger well for the construction sector.

Business Environment Review
The past two years have been very challenging for the
construction industry. The customer base of the business
showed a clear shift towards Government clients, as the
private sector deferred their investment plans due to
uncertainties caused by various economic developments.
Though RERA and GST were positives for the industrial
growth, the sudden implementation of these policies
brought India’s economy to a standstill for a few months.
The first half of the financial year was quite challenging
for the business, which has slowly stabilized, progressing
towards healthy GDP growth.
The year saw receipt of some breakthrough orders
from prestigious clients. Major orders were secured
Most of the airport projects that were deferred during the
last year have started showing positive movement this year.

The IT sector in India remained sluggish. The Government
has been active in implementing various health care
schemes and establishing hospitals. On the whole, the
business scenario has been better than the previous year’s.
The Qatar embargo had some impact on the ongoing jobs.
There were no major orders from the GCC, as the economy
is reviving, with crude oil prices stabilizing after a steep fall.
Despite uncertain market conditions, the Buildings &
Factories business has managed to win major orders and
has continued to maintain its leadership position in the
industry.
Initiatives
Apart from continuing its focus on technological
advancements and R&D, the business has also introduced
major initiatives with the objective of strengthening
its customer portfolio, steadying business growth, and
expanding into emerging markets. Key moves have been
taken to strengthen the organization and follow a focused
approach towards projects that complement our strengths.
Various digital initiatives that were introduced last year
have been successfully implemented, and are operational
across all sites of the business. Value engineering, effective
procurement and supply chain management, operational
excellence, mechanized execution and innovative
construction methodologies have improved project cycle
times, enhanced profitability and delivered quality. The
business is associated with leading universities and industry
experts, pioneering use of Robotics and 3D printing in
construction.
Safety at work is of utmost importance to L&T’s Buildings &
Factories business, and the focus continues by organizing
various training and awareness programmes throughout
the year. Various initiatives have been taken up to digitally
monitor, record and review all safety-related aspects at site.

• India is experiencing much growth in medical tourism,
and the industry is expected to double its size by end
2018.
• The Government has provided infrastructure status to
Affordable Housing. The relaxation of FDI in real estate
will steadily boost investment in this sector.
In the international arena, Bangladesh and the GCC offer
promising opportunities. The crude oil price is on a rising
trend. This is a healthy sign for the GCC’s economy and will
boost revival of stalled investment plans.
L&T’s Buildings & Factories business is a proven player in the
construction industry, with an exemplary record of handling
major design-and-build projects and executing them within

to spend close to R 7 lakh crore over the next five years
to develop 83,677 km of roads including Bharat Mala
Pariyojana worth R 5.4 lakh crore.
The Government aims to build 45 km of roads per day in
financial year 2019, an increase from the daily average of
almost 27 km achieved last year.
The Ministry has also set targets of awarding orders of
20,000 km of National Highways and constructing a total
of 16,420 km in 2018-19 – up from last year’s award of
orders for 17,055 km highways and 9,829 km constructed.
Railway Business
Indian Railways are planning the highest outlay of
R 1.46 lakh crore for FY 18-19 – an increase over last year’s
outlay of R 1.31 lakh crore.
The high-speed rail project is the next big-ticket
opportunity after the dedicated freight corridor
projects. While the pipeline of projects from Western and
Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor is concluding, the
business is positively looking at the start of the bidding
process for the 508 km Mumbai-Ahmedabad High
Speed Rail Corridor (MAHSR). With the enhanced value
of the overall project at R 1,08,000 crore, L&T’s accessible
value stands at R 59,000 crore, comprising packages
for viaducts, undersea tunnel(s), stations, maintenance
depots, track, electrification and signalling. L&T’s Railway
business will focus on track, electrification and signalling &
telecommunications.

Apart from the high-speed project, conventional projects
of the Indian Railways continue to get a big thrust, backed
by strong Institutional funders like LIC. These include
25,000 km of electrification to be completed in 4 years
under the banner of ‘Mission Electrification’. Also, the
capacity augmentation projects of track doubling will
involve construction of 17,000 km of additional tracks. The
business intends to participate in a major portion of these
projects through EPC tendering.
Besides mainline railways, the opportunities in the Mass
Transit Segment continue to be driven by Tier 2 Cities and
‘Extension lines’ in large metros. Leveraging its overseas
experience, the business is advocating the LRT solution
on an EPC turnkey basis for cities like Vijayawada, Indore,
Kozhikode and Thiruvananthapuram.
Internationally, the outlook on the Middle East construction
industry is improving rapidly with the uptick in oil prices
since mid-2017.
Growth in the region is expected, assuming a moderation
of geopolitical tensions and a modest rise in oil prices. GCC
economies are anticipated to lead stronger growth in the
region, supported by easing fiscal adjustment, Tendering of
mainline railway projects in Middle East is likely to resume.
Having been part of a major urban transit system in
Riyadh – which has progressed significantly – the business
is gearing up to address these upcoming opportunities as
well. Further infrastructure investment (such as the UAE
Expo 2020) and reforms to promote non-oil sector activity
are expected to offer opportunities.
The business also has focus on the neighbouring
geographies, with projects having secured funding either
from the Indian government or from other bi-lateral/
multilateral agencies such as JICA.
The business is exploring opportunities in main line railway
funded by an Indian Line of Credit and multilateral agencies
in select countries of South Asia (Sri Lanka and Bangladesh)
and the African continent.
The business is also exploring opportunities in new
geographies such as Eastern Africa and CIS. It has already
started bidding for tenders for projects funded by Indian
LOC and AfDB in Mozambique and Zambia, and has
received prequalification for ADB- funded EPC projects in
Azerbaijan.

Infrastructure in FY 2018-19, which is approximately
21% more than an estimated expenditure of
R 4.94 lakh crore in 2017-18. This increase reconfirms
the Government’s view that infrastructure development
is the key to economic development. The Finance
Minister has estimated that investment in excess of
R 50 lakh crore in infrastructure is needed to augment
the economy and make it competitive with the other
emerging economies. A majority of this allocation has
been earmarked to build metros, bridges, hydro power
projects and tunnels, which form the core expertise
of the Heavy Civil Infrastructure business. With major
projects coming up, including the high-speed rail between
Mumbai and Ahmedabad, the Bharatmala and Sagarmala
river-linking projects, hydel projects on the Indus and its
tributaries, etc., the business is confident on achieving
its revenue targets backed by a strong order book and

Business Environment
Thanks to a slew of Government schemes including
‘Saubhagya’, the distribution sector in India remained
vibrant in 2017–18. Having achieved electrification of
all the villages, now the focus is on electrifying all the
households. Also, the urban distribution revamp programs
continue aiming at multiple objectives such as improving
reliability of power, making the network disaster-resilient
and improving the aesthetics of cities of tourism and
heritage importance. The business maintained its leadership
position as a large EPC player in this segment, with key
orders from the states of Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal,
Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh.
The business is privileged to partner the Central and State
Governments in illuminating thousands of households in
economically backward areas and electrify hundreds of
villages. In a large number of towns, it has significantly
improved the quality of power and reduced AT&C
(Aggregate Technical & Commercial) losses through
distribution reformation projects.
500kV HVDC Transmission Line at Kenya
With renewable power characterized by intermittency
being added increasingly to the grid, advanced solutions
to ensure voltage stability have been necessitated. L&T
commissioned India’s first STATCOM project of ±100MVAR
capacity at NP Kunta substation in Andhra Pradesh. A
major order was received from Power Grid Corporation
of India Limited (PGCIL) for implementation of STATCOM
in three locations in South India. Substation-related
opportunities in 400kV & 765kV GIS / AIS segments were
steady as Central and select State utilities concentrated
on power system strengthening schemes to meet their
demands. Though there were positive signs on the policy
front, the general lack of investments in conventional
power generation and industry segments continues. Gas
and air-insulated substation orders were received from
PGCIL and State utilities including two major 400kV GIS
substation orders from South Indian transmission utilities.
Several key substation projects were commissioned
including 765kV gas insulated substations at Hyderabad,
Nizamabad, Varanasi and Aligarh.
Though the centrally driven transmission schemes were
less than the prevailing levels, the intrastate system
strengthening projects by States such as Jharkhand,
Karnataka, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and
Uttarakhand continued to provide ample opportunities
for transmission line construction. On the back of proven
execution skills to complete projects within schedule,
a repeat order from a reputed private developer was
entrusted to the business. The Testing Station continues to
attract orders from its customers worldwide – USA, KSA,
China, Indonesia and Malaysia – to test some of the highest
and tallest transmission towers in the world.

The Transmission Line business has commissioned about 20
transmission corridors of 2800 km length in FY17-18. The
400kV Raipur–Jagdalpur project is the longest twin line in a
single package with a length of 328 km. Key projects such
as 765kV Lalitpur-Agra Transmission Line (328 km) and the
400kV Madhugiri–Gooty TL were commissioned for Power
Grid. The 220kV Kishenganga–Amragarh TL has been
successfully completed in Jammu & Kashmir, overcoming
the tough challenges posed by the weather, terrain and
local conditions. Other major projects commissioned
include 400kV Banda–Allahabad TL in Uttar Pradesh and
400kV Salem–Rasipalayam TL in Tamil Nadu.
With the country achieving a milestone 1 lakh GWHr of
renewable energy generation in FY 2017–18, L&T’s Solar
Business has seen remarkable growth. The business secured
a cumulative 650 MWp+ capacity of grid- connected
solar PV plants across India, including the prestigious
order for 325 MWp in Rewa, Madhya Pradesh, which is
also the single largest EPC contract in India to date; 140
MWp in Bhadla, Rajasthan and 187 MWp in Tamil Nadu.
The business also won the prestigious Bihar State Rural
Electrification project, the first-of-its-kind distributed
generation project with a cumulative capacity of 12 MW
solar and 105 MWh of energy storage, which aims to
electrify 236 remote villages.
In the Middle East, though the macro economic scenario
was mixed in 2017-18 as well, witnessing capex cuts
and intensifying competition, the business could garner
opportunities arising out of Expo 2020 related development
in the UAE and stable T&D investment plans by KSA, Qatar
and Oman. In the UAE, the business secured orders for
constructing a number of 132kV gas insulated substations
from Dubai Electricity & Water Authority and reputed
private developers. Despite spend cuts induced by the drop
in oil prices experienced earlier, causing a sense of anxiety
in the business climate, L&T secured its longest transmission
line in KSA (from Qassim to Madina – 421 km). Despite the
imposition of trade embargo, the business secured a major
order from a private developer in Qatar. L&T commissioned
33 substations in the Middle East in FY 2017-18. Having
qualified for the highest voltage levels in its lines of
business, new private customers have also been added.
In Africa, the business has made an entry into the
Moroccan and Egyptian markets. The foothold gained in
Algeria, Malawi and Kenya has grown stronger on the back
of fresh orders.
With the completion of the substation projects on schedule
in Malaysia, the business has demonstrated its capabilities
and has won recognition in the ASEAN market. Major
500kV substation and transmission line orders have been
secured in Thailand.
Significant Initiatives:
With a major thrust on digitalization as a key enabler,
the business rolled out several initiatives, including
3D/4D BIM, deployment of drones and mobility devices
for project monitoring, connecting plant and machinery
for asset monitoring, using geospatial technologies
for surveys, etc. Workmen-related processes are being
linked through unique identification. Several operational
excellence initiatives in the areas of on-time delivery,
profitability enhancement, effectiveness, checks of process
implementation, working capital management and risk
management are being pursued.

• Special appreciation was received from the Federation of
Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) for
RAPDRP Ghaziabad Project for best practices in Safety
Outlook:
On the power distribution front, several projects remain
significant: the centrally-driven scheme for last-mile
connectivity, viz. Sahaj Bijli Har Ghar Yojana (Saubhagya),
and various distribution reforms by State DISCOMs for
reduction of AT&C losses, power factor improvement,
network strengthening in disaster prone areas etc. Urban
power infrastructure is expected to get a makeover, with
underground cable networks, advanced metering facilities
etc. considering the thrust on development of smart cities
and heritage cities.
The increasing cost of land acquisition related delays have
led power grid / State utilities to increasingly opt for GIS
substations due to the small footprint they occupy. As the
power transmission / transformation capacities to cater
to the growing demand of urban centres increase, new
opportunities will arise for EHV (Extra High Voltage) cabling
projects in large cities keeping in view of the right-of-way,
aesthetics and Operation & Maintenance aspects. The
much-need impetus is expected to be provided by power
quality improvement projects such as STATCOM, new
clientele from TBCB (Tariff Based Competitive Bidding)
players, state utilities strengthening their networks
with funding from multilateral funding agencies, and
infrastructure projects like metros and airports etc. The
financial health of state utilities, the political situation in

several states and the availability of funding will remain key
determinants.
Apart from the domestic market, the business is foreseeing
the pipeline of opportunities from SAARC countries like
Bangladesh, Nepal etc., which are funded by international
funding agencies such as JICA, ADB, IsDB, etc.
rooftop segment looks positive. To harness solar power
for rural India, the Government of India has formulated
Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (KUSUM)
scheme, which aims at solarizing the agriculture sector
with ubiquitous use of solar power for tube wells and lift
irrigation projects. Emergent areas like floatovoltaics hold
promise.
System strengthening in state utilities will provide a
major impetus to transmission line prospects. Several
interstate and intrastate transmission lines are expected
to go through the Tariff Based Competitive Bidding
route. In certain states, capacity enhancement using the
already-existing corridor may provide opportunities as it
eliminates the need for fresh acquisition of right-of-way,
thereby reducing costs and saving time. The next phase of
green energy corridors is on the anvil. Substantial activity
with many prospects is evident in the SAARC countries viz.
Bangladesh and Nepal, as they are coming up with several
high-value prospects.
The solar power market is poised to remain upbeat,
with yearly solar capacity additions pursuing an upward
trajectory. The Private Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
market in select states will pick up based on encouraging
open access policies and growing solar power viability.
Clarity emerging on GST and duties will help the sector
immensely. Advanced Battery Energy Storage Solutions
will see a rise due to grid stability requirements and for
electrifying rural households.
With upcoming state solar policies focusing on rooftop
projects with net metering schemes, the prospects for the
In the Middle East, the business is cautiously optimistic in
its outlook. The stable recovery of the oil price is expected
to boost investments in the T&D sector. Infrastructure
development will continue to be driven by mega events like
Dubai EXPO 2020, FIFA 2022 and grand plans such as Saudi
Vision 2030, Qatar National Vision 2030. Further GCC grid
formation, upgradation to higher voltage levels, integration
of renewable energy sources to the existing power grid and
interconnections of transmission networks are expected to
fuel growth in power distribution throughout the Middle
East. The revival of the transmission & distribution scene in
Abu Dhabi is a positive sign. In KSA, SEC (Saudi Electricity
Company) continues to invest in power infrastructure
projects. In addition, investment in the renewable sector by
a leading investor and plans for developing a transnational
city augur well for the KSA market. Power system capacity
expansion to cater to infrastructure growth is proceeding as
per plans in Qatar and Oman. Riding on a strong execution
track record in Kuwait, the business is in an advantageous
position to exploit opportunities from key customers in
Kuwait.
Input costs are bound to increase with the introduction of
VAT and removal of subsidies on fuel, power and water.
However, these will have a similar impact on all the players.

Prioritization of spending / budgetary allocation, friction
between Qatar and other Gulf countries, the slowdown
in Oman, and related delays in project finalization are
potential risks.
The business is concentrating on key African economies
that have a clear road map to build transmission and
distribution networks to meet increasing demand.
Grid strengthening, regional interconnection and rural
electrification opportunities are being pursued in select
countries. Renewable generation is another area that holds
potential. Having established a creditable track record and
subcontractor/ vendor ecosystem, the business is expected
to significantly scale up under the right conditions.
The rising power demand in ASEAN region paves the
way for significant investments in grid interconnections,
grid development and strengthening. In addition, an
interconnected ASEAN power grid is beneficial in many
ways such as generation – demand balancing and
renewable integration. With increasing share in Thailand
and Malaysia, the business expects to exploit potential in
Myanmar and other countries in the region.
The overall outlook for the PT&D sector remains promising
on both the domestic and the international fronts. The
business looks forward to consolidating its position in
established markets and gain significantly in new growth
areas, ably supported by its initiatives on cost leadership
and delivery excellence.
114 MLD Water Treatment Plant at Ranchi, Jharkhand
Water & Effluent Treatment
Overview:
1.1 billion people worldwide lack access to water
and 2.4 billion people are challenged by inadequate
sanitation. Many of the water systems that keep
ecosystems thriving and feed the growing human
population have become stressed. Rivers, lakes and
aquifers are drying up or becoming too polluted to use.
More than half the world’s wetlands have disappeared.
Climate change is altering patterns of weather and
water around the world, causing shortages and
droughts in some areas and floods in others. At the
current consumption rate, it is pegged that two-thirds
of the world’s population may face water shortages by
2025.
To cater to these various needs, L&T Construction’s
Water & Effluent Treatment business segment
has enhanced its process knowhow and detailed
engineering capabilities across all streams of Water and
Wastewater business in India, Sri Lanka, the Middle
East and Africa. Its formidable in-house engineering
capabilities, coupled with impeccable project
management skills, has put this segment much ahead
of the competition.

Business Environment
The human population has successfully harnessed many
of the world’s natural waterways – building dams, water
wells, vast irrigation systems and other structures that have
allowed civilizations to grow and thrive.
Piped water systems have been set up by the Government
in most cities. But a large percent of semi-urban areas are
not covered by these, and rely on ground water. Piped
sewerage systems feeding into large treatment plants
exist only in bigger cities and metros. Most cities have
septic tanks or local waste management. Hence there are
opportunities in this area for providing water infrastructure
facilities.
The mega Government policies to drive water infrastructure
in India that include AMRUT (Atal Mission for Rejuvenation
and Urban Transformation), Namami Gange, Pradhan
Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana and Delhi Mumbai Industrial
Corridor Development. Stringent implementation of
pollution norms is in place to encourage setting up of
common effluent treatment plants. In addition, large
investments have been proposed by multi-lateral funding
agencies for water supply and sewer projects to improve
the quality of urban life.
Desalination, water management, mega lift irrigation, mega
treatment plants and smart cities have started fructifying in
a large scale.
All these leave L&T’s Water & Effluent Treatment business
with huge untapped potential.
So far, the business has created water infrastructure to
cater to the requirements of 30 million people. It has
laid more than 3.5 lakh km of pipelines, designed and
constructed more than 5300 Million Litres per Day (MLD) of
water and wastewater treatment plants and brought more

opening will also be captured in the system for further
data analysis.
Outlook
The Government has already set in motion an integrated
Ganga conservation plan – ‘Namami Gange’ – which
envisages investments for sewage infrastructure across
several urban habitations along the river. The Pradhan
Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY) has been
formulated with the vision of extending the coverage of
irrigation ‘Har Khet ko pani’ and improving water use
efficiency ‘More crop per drop’ in a focused manner with
end-to-end solutions on source creation, distribution,
management, field application and extension activities. The
Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) is India’s most
ambitious infrastructure programme, aiming to develop
new industrial cities as ‘Smart Cities’ and converging
next-generation technologies across infrastructure sectors.
The programme envisages development of infrastructure
linkages like power plants, assured water supply, high
capacity transportation and logistics facilities.
Hence, the projects pipeline related to drinking water,
waste water and irrigation are expected to remain strong
in India due to growing demand and Government thrust.
Sector-specific focus is expected to shift towards rural
drinking water, ETPs/STPs and irrigation projects. Major
outlay based on the current status and priorities: Water
projects expected in Gujarat, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh,
Bihar, Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan; Irrigation projects are
expected in Tamil Nadu, Telangana & STPs expected in Uttar
Pradesh and Bihar.
There is a push towards the PPP mode (HAM – Hybrid
Annuity Mode) for STPs (Sewage Treatment Plant) causing
big Infra developers to enter the water sector. There is
the probability of this getting extended to WTPs (Water
Treatment Plant) / ETPs (Effluent Treatment Plant).

At present, the competitive landscape is such that L&T
along with few selected players are only competing
pan-India, while the smaller players are focusing on their
home ground. Competitors tend to form JVs with regionally
strong players and technology licensors for PQ and project
execution.
In the international market, opportunities have been
identified for water treatment, sewage treatment and
desalination plants in Middle East. The business has already
made its mark in Tanzania and Sri Lanka and more orders
are expected from these geographies. Tireless efforts are in
place to expand into other parts of Africa and Bangladesh.

Outlook
FY 2018-19 looks promising for the business, given the
boost the Government has given to safe and smart cities
and other digital initiatives.
The Union budget for FY 2018-19 has allocated over
R 25000 crore – an increase of 22% over last year’s
allocation – towards various initiatives in the areas of smart,
digital, etc. This augurs very well for the interest pursued by
the business.
Several Tier-II cities are expected to roll out surveillance
projects. Additionally, the transportation sector is also
moving towards surveillance and traffic management
systems. A few of the RFPs are in an advanced stage of
preparation, such as railway surveillance and highway
traffic management system.
Under the Central Government’s Smart City Mission for
developing 109 smart cities across India, the cities have
already been shortlisted and several are at advanced stages
of RFPs and have received Central Govt. funding. These
cities will be coming up with RFPs shortly, and the balance
cities are likely to follow in FY 2018-19. Equipped with
diversified smart offerings, L&T is well-placed to address
these opportunities.
In addition to the above, special focus is laid on the
modernization of defence and homeland security. In the
defence sector, perimeter surveillance systems to the Navy
and Air Force are also shaping up.
The Bharat Net programme is one the world’s largest
network infrastructure projects. It aims to digitally connect
250,000 villages (gram panchayats) across the country and
unite India digitally. The second phase of the Bharat Net
program has been floated and aims to deploy network
infrastructure to the 140,000 gram panchayats on a
fast-track basis.
The objective of the Bharat Net programme is to facilitate
the delivery of e-governance, e-health, e-education,
e-banking, Internet and other services to the rural India,
thereby enhancing the quality of rural life.
Along with rural digital initiatives, the Government is
also focussing on increasing the number of wi-fi hotspots
across the country. BSNL is planning to ensure that there
are half a million more hotspots by the end of December
2018. The aim is to digitally touch India’s 1.25 billion
population.
One of several initiatives of the Government in the energy
sector is the drive for replacement of old analog meters
with new, tamper-proof, digital smart meters for domestic
consumers.
The metro initiative is gaining further impetus, with the
addition of metros for cities of Mumbai, Bengaluru,
Hyderabad, Nagpur, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Jaipur, and
Kochi in the next few years. In addition, there are proposals
for Mass Rapid Transport Systems for Pune, Chandigarh,
Ahmedabad, Kanpur, Ludhiana, Bhopal, Indore and
Faridabad.
Both technically and financially, the Government has been
supporting the set-up and upgrade of State Wide Area
Networks (SWAN). The business expects opportunities in
State Wide Surveillance.

Power
Business
Overview
L&T’s Power business offers concept-to-commission
integrated business solutions to the thermal and
nuclear power industries. It undertakes large EPC
projects on a lumpsum turnkey basis in the fields of
coal, nuclear and gas based power plants in India and
overseas. The business is planning to undertake STG
Island contracts in upcoming PHWR nuclear-based
power plants.
The business has a track record of executing large-size
and complex projects with capabilities that include
in-house engineering, state-of-the-art manufacturing
facilities, project management expertise and a healthy
and encouraging work environment.
The business boasts of a state-of-the-art facility at
Hazira (near Surat), where it manufactures ultra-
supercritical / supercritical boilers, turbines, generators,
pulverizers, axial fans, air-preheaters and electrostatic
precipitators. The facility is responsible for adding more
than 7GW of supercritical power generation capacity
to the Indian Power sector since its inception.
The business has the following subsidiaries:
L&T-MHPS Boilers Pvt. Ltd., a joint venture with
Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Limited (MHPS)
Japan, engineers, designs, manufactures, erects and
commissions ultra-supercritical / supercritical boilers up
to a single unit of 1000 MW in India. The Company
is also looking forward to gaining a foothold in the
selective catalytic reduction system market in India,
which is likely to open during 2018-19.
L&T-MHPS Turbine Generators Pvt. Ltd., a joint
venture with Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Limited
(MHPS), Japan and Mitsubishi Electric Corp. (MELCO),
manufactures STG equipment of capacities ranging
from 500 MW to 1,000 MW. The Company is engaged
in the engineering, design, manufacture, erection
and commissioning of ultra-supercritical / supercritical
turbines and generators in India.
The business also has a joint venture with Sargent
& Lundy LLC, USA (S&L), a global consulting firm in
the power industry, offering complete power plant
engineering and consultancy services – from concept
to commissioning. Another joint venture with Howden
Group, UK, enables the manufacture of fans and air
pre-heaters.
Presently, the business is very active at various sites
in India for its coal-based power plants, and in
Bangladesh for its gas-based power plants.
Business Environment:
The lack of momentum in industrialization and moderate
economic growth have directly impacted the power sector
in recent times.
The power sector is facing various challenges like shift of
focus towards renewables, decline in thermal PLF, financial
stress, promoter’s inability to infuse equity and service debt,

falling electricity prices at exchanges, non-availability of
long term PPA, coal linkages, water availability, land issues,
etc. The Government’s focus on renewables has particularly
impacted the capacity generation of thermal power plants.
Further, the excess manufacturing capacity in the market
continues to put pressure on the prices. During these trying
times, the business sees the opportunity to reorganize,
consolidate, cut costs and improve efficiencies to make it
more competitive in the market to secure future orders. The
business will continue its stand of not bidding at margin
diluting prices. Instead, it will work in an organized manner
to make itself cost-competitive to win and successfully
complete such projects.
There is some cause for cheer, despite the challenges being
encountered by the power sector in the past few years. The
business is confident of revival of capacity enhancement
in the thermal power sector to match the projected rise in
demand for power, in line with economic growth in the
country. In this context, the business will continue to focus
on coal and gas-based power projects and its adjacencies
like replacement of old power plants, R&M and new
business for FGD / SCR systems, sub-critical plants, nuclear
STGI plants, etc.
During the year, the business continued its foray into
Bangladesh, with one more 400 MW combined cycle
gas-based complete EPC contract.
The business has successfully commissioned two gas-based
combined cycle power plants in Bangladesh, and has
added capacity of more than 600 MW to the grid. Further,
two gas-based power plants totalling 800 MW are under
construction, and will be completed well within the
contractual period.
The success in Oman in the HRSG segment of gas-based
power plants and export jobs through joint ventures
continues to mark the business’s capability to meet
international execution standards, and proves its
competitiveness among international players.
The business is poised to focus on new territories outside
India to mitigate the risk of low domestic demand.
The business has also diversified into environmental
solutions, actively started to participate in FGDs, and
is hopeful of making a breakthrough in the upcoming
tenders. It will also participate in the replacement project
market, which is estimated to be around 46 GW, and will
see the replacement of old and inefficient power plants in
the country.
The business continues its operational excellence on the
jobs in hand by completing the various milestones of the
projects in record time. The dedication of the Mahagenco–
Koradi project to the nation (3x660 MW) is an example of
this operational excellence. The business, despite its quest
to complete project milestones on time, has never lost
sight of the safety and quality of execution. The receipt
of various national-level awards on safety and quality is a
testimony to this.
Nuclear power, being a clean source of energy, is going
to play a key role in the Indian power sector in the next
few years. The Government has an ambitious plan to
increase the nuclear power production to 23 GW by
2031 from the current level of 7 GW. The business sees
360 MW Combined Cycle Power Plant, Bheramara, Bangladesh, built on EPC basis
225 MW Combined Cycle Power Plant, Sikalbaha, Bangladesh, built on EPC basis
176
176
large-value opportunities in this segment. The business
has incorporated the manufacturing capability to produce
turbines of 700 MW capacity related to PHWR nuclear
power plants.
Significant Initiatives:
The business has deep-dived into cost-optimization
programmes, and is confident of successful implementation
in the upcoming tenders. Internationalization and portfolio
enhancement continue to remain the focus of the business.
Enhancing its capability towards these initiatives, the
business is geared to benefit from any opportunity available
in these areas.
The business is also giving due importance to digitalization.
It aims to achieve cost reduction, carry out smart operations
and shorten project timelines through these initiatives.
Smart asset monitoring using IoT and smart manufacturing
initiatives have been identified as important digitization
measures to improve business processes and optimize
equipment utilization.
The business has carried out various initiatives to improve
its localization of manufacturing activities.
It regularly reviews its internal control processes, and has
ensured an adequate internal control system commensurate
with the size, nature and risks of its business operations. It
also continues with its risk mitigation initiatives through risk
management practices and regular reviews.
Outlook:
Looking ahead, the power sector in the country is set to
grow to meet the increased demand due to the expected
GDP growth in the country. The growth in industrialisation
is the key to economic growth, which in turn will lead to
a major thrust in the power sector, as power is required to
support industrialisation.
Government initiatives like Ujwal DISCOM Assurance
Yojana, rural electrification programmes, the programme
on 24x7 power for all, and centralised purchase of 2500
MW of power from stressed power projects by the Central
Government for 3 years are some of the measures being
implemented towards raising the power demand so that
the power sector embarks on a sustained recovery path.
The business sees that the power sector is expected to
unfold many more such positive trends in the areas of
generation, transmission and distribution to increase the
demand.
Coal will continue to be the mainstay of the domestic
power sector for providing stable, reliable and robust base
load power supply – though the emergence of alternative
sources in the form of renewables is another challenge for
the business.
The business sees opportunities in the ‘replacement market’
and in ‘FGD systems’ in the near future. The business is
ready to capitalise on any opportunity in these diversified
areas.
Excess capacity and aggressive pricing will continue to
haunt EPC players, and would reflect in the pricing and
financials.
South East Asia continues to offer good opportunities for
gas-based plants, which are not expected to revive in India
in the near future. The business has taken various steps to
enter targeted markets like Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, the UAE
and Indonesia for gas-based projects.

Business Environment
A sluggish global economy impacted the business for the
first 3 quarters of 2017-18. Key markets, viz. USA, Brazil
and China, offered very few opportunities. Other major
markets targeted i.e. Iran and Russia, were impacted due
to geopolitical reasons. The Middle East economy slowed
down due to lower oil prices. Worldwide, most countries
178
178
responded to the slowdown with restrictive import policies
and the demand for localization. On the domestic front,
major economic reforms, viz. Demonetization and the
introduction of the Goods & Services Tax (GST) led to a
delay in the tendering process and investments.
The order inflow for the Nuclear business was impacted
due to slow progress in order placements. Surplus
capacities and limited demand led to aggressive
competition and put extensive pressure on pricing and
deliveries. The business focused on operational excellence
to deal with the challenging market scenario and regained
its competitiveness. Major orders executed in 2017-18
include equipment for RAPID, EXXON, KNPC AL ZOUR,

Outlook
With the uptick in crude oil prices, there is revival in the
demand for oil in international markets. Global growth
started picking up towards the end of FY 2017-18, and
the business outlook for the Process Plant sector looks
optimistic, with major investment proposals expected in
South East Asia, MENA and the domestic market. Major
investments are expected in five to six refineries around the
world in view of the increase in global demand. Foremost
opportunities include Takreer in Abu Dhabi, DUQM in
Oman, KNPC in Kuwait and Thai Oil in Thailand.
The domestic market is also showing signs of revival of the
Capex cycle by major players in the petrochemical sector.
Investments are expected in the domestic sector by IOCL,
HPCL, HMEL and BPCL for capacity enhancement and BS-VI
upgradation to comply with the applicable fuel standards.

Defence and Aerospace
Overview
L&T’s defence business provides indigenous solutions
across the spectrum – from platforms to surveillance-
to-strike capabilities. Having started as a diversification
initiative primarily with the R&D model, the business
has metamorphosed through growth phases,
developing technologies, products, systems, and
providing solutions across the communication, weapon
& weapon delivery systems, and platforms for naval
applications. Currently, the business has grown into an
integrated portfolio and serves the Armed Forces and
the Defence Research & Development Organisation
(DRDO).
The Defence business is structured into two business
groups:
1. Defence & Aerospace
2. Defence Shipbuilding (reported under ‘Others’ segment
in financial statements)
1. Defence & Aerospace
L&T’s Defence and Aerospace (D&A) business is today
engaged in design-to-delivery solutions and serially
produces these across its chosen defence segments.
For over three decades, L&T has focussed on design,
engineering and building Indian products, systems and
technologies with Defence Research and Development
Organisation, India (DRDO), as well as with its in-house
research and development. The business has developed
and is into manufacturing artillery systems, air-defence
systems, land & naval weapon systems with associate
fire-control solutions, naval equipment & systems,
engineering systems for land and naval forces, military
bridging systems, communication systems, missile
propulsion air frames and rocket motors for space-

design, analysis, virtual reality and Product Lifecycle
Management, interfaced with project management and
ERP systems in line with global best practices.
The shipyards have successfully delivered interceptor
boats, offshore patrol vessels and a floating dock for
the Indian Navy, with the remarkable achievement of
each vessel being either ahead of time or on schedule –
a new benchmark in the Indian shipbuilding industry.
Business Environment
In line with the motto of ‘Make in India’ and ‘Ease of doing
business’ agenda, the Government has brought about
major improvements in policies in the Defence sector. The
enabling policies include release of a Strategic Partnership
Policy, Simplified Make II Procedure, announcement of
Defence Industrial Corridors and a draft Defence Production
Policy. With these policy initiatives moving towards creating
a level playing field over the past three years, the import
content has shown a downward trend.
The Capital Budget for Defence in FY 2018-19 has grown
by around 7% as compared to that during FY’18. The
major allocation of the capital budget is to meet existing
commitments of MoD, and the allocation to undertake
new acquisitions is likely to be under pressure. With the
preferential categorization of acquisition programmes
towards indigenous sourcing, India’s imports are expected
to continue to show downward trends, going forward.
There is also active support and facilitation by the
Government towards indigenous defence production and
export.
In the Aerospace segment, L&T collaborates with ISRO
as technology partners for the development of special-
purpose test facilities for India’s space programmes. In the
wake of meeting increasing demands of the space sector

The Government has awarded L&T the largest-ever
contract on a private player for Tracked SP Artillery
Howitzers. Therefore, L&T is setting up an Armoured
System Complex at Hazira to serially produce these K-9
Vajra Howitzers. This programme has served as the clear
indicator of the MoD’s commitment to push the ‘Make in
India’ agenda.
Outlook
With the draft Defence Production Policy highlighting the
vision ‘to make India among the top five countries of the
world in Aerospace and Defence industries, with active
participation of public and private sector…’ the preference
for indigenously designed and developed systems will
result in opportunities in adjacent domains. Over the
medium-term, significant opportunities are envisaged
in programmes for new-build naval (surface as well as
underwater) platforms, refit of conventional submarines,
artillery and air defence guns, close-in weapons systems,
military bridging systems, missile programmes (repeat
orders), and sub-systems for space launch vehicles. L&T is
poised and positioned to play a proactive role in ensuring
self-reliance of our nation through successful ‘Make in
India’ initiatives.
With regard to implementation of the Strategic Partnership
Policy, Request for Information (RFIs) for conventional
submarines (P75I) and the Future Ready Combat Vehicle
(FRCV) armoured platform were issued this year to foreign
OEMs. EOIs to Indian as well as foreign OEMs are expected
to be issued. L&T is likely to be positioned to be selected as
a Strategic Partner in key segments. The JV with MBDA is
well positioned to address IDDM opportunities, ‘Buy Indian’
programmes as well as ‘Buy and Make Indian’ programmes
with access to latest state-of-the-art technologies like the
Fifth Generation technology for Anti-Tank Guided Missile
(ATGM).
With sharper focus on gaining growth momentum, the
business reiterates its commitment to nation-building.

Electrical &
Automation
Business
Overview
L&T’s electrical and automation (E&A) business
manufactures a wide range of products and system
for distribution, regulation and control of electricity
along with metering products. The business is a major
player in the system integration business. Its products
include low and medium voltage switchgear products,
electrical systems, marine switchgear, industrial and
building automation products, energy management
systems and metering solutions that cater to industry,
utility, building, infrastructure and agriculture
segments. The E&A business is structured into two
Strategic Business Groups (SBGs) – Products SBG and
Projects SBG.
The business has been increasing its penetration in new
segments like telecom, smart e-cities, healthcare, etc.,
by offering innovative solutions, while consolidating
its position in the retail segment with a new range of
consumer products.
The major strength of the business is its elaborate
in-house design and development facilities for new
products and life cycle management of its existing
range of products. The business has six DSIR-approved
R&D facilities and dedicated test laboratories in India
that specialise in diverse skill sets. These centres
network with international labs, testing centres
and academic institutions to keep abreast of new
technology trends and introduce them to customers
in different segments. The business also has well-
developed tooling facilities with state-of-the-art
manufacturing systems and processes in place for high

at Navi Mumbai (Mahape & Rabale), Ahmednagar,
Vadodara, Coimbatore and Mysore in India as well
as in Saudi Arabia, UAE (Jebel Ali, Dubai), Malaysia,
Indonesia and the UK.
Business Environment
With a notable rebound in global trade, the world
economic growth rate reached 3.6 % in 2017. This was
driven by an investment recovery in advanced economies,
rebound of the European economy, continued strong
growth in emerging Asian markets, and signs of recovery
in several commodity exports. The global growth rate is
expected to clock up to 3.9 % in 2018, which would be
highest in this decade. The geopolitical situation across the
world is also changing fast.
The private investment climate in India has remained
subdued due to stresses in the balance sheet. The
dust around GST implementation is yet to settle. The
year witnessed a good monsoon, as well as policy
announcements in many sectors such as infrastructure,

in 2017.
encouraging. Various recommendations of the project have
been implemented, contributing to improved efficiency and
cost reduction.
Implementation of initiatives like Dindayal Upadhyaya
Gram Jyoti Yojana, UDAY, SAUBHAGYA, Smart Grid,
Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana and increased
focus on renewable energy are visible on the ground.
Other Governmental initiatives like Make in India, Smart
Cities, increased infrastructure spending, etc., also hold
promise. The rising oil and metal prices, slow climate of
order finalisation and liquidity issues continued to pose
challenges for the businesses.
With the formation of UDAY, the liquidity position of
utilities has improved, thereby giving more powers to
state utilities to decide and award orders. This has resulted
in improved order intake by the metering business. The
switchboard business posted a good performance for
the year, except that the international order intake was
lower. Overall, the domestic business posted improved
performance over the previous year. VAT implementation
with effect from 1st January 2018 in the Middle East, e.g.
KSA and the UAE, has so far been smooth.
Significant Initiatives:
In its endeavour to deliver quality products and solutions
at competitive prices, the business always revalidates
its processes, providing vigour and sustainability to its
operations. The business launched ‘Project Optima’ for
all domestic businesses and TAMCO. The project is an
operational excellence initiative, aimed at achieving refined
cost structures, improved operational efficiency and faster
throughput. The outcome of the programme has been
In FY 2017-18, the R&D spend by the business was
approximately 2 % of total sales revenue. During the
year, the business filed 76 Patents, 1 Trademark and 32
Design applications. Focused R&D activities have enabled
the Electrical Standard Products business unit to have a
healthy New Product Intensity (NPI) index of approximately
25% - an index which measures the sales of new products
introduced in the market during the last five years with
reference to the total sales in the financial year.
The Standard Products business implemented a SAP tool
known as ‘Advanced Planning and Optimisation’ (APO)
for end-to-end supply chain management. The tool aims
at improving capability to give a reliable commitment of
delivery date to customers while receiving orders, based
on real-time visibility in the supply chain. It works on the
Theory of Constraints (TOC) and uses a diagnostic metrics
framework based on Supply Chain Operation Reference
(SCOR).
In line with its ‘Shrink to grow’ initiative, the switchboard
business has successfully shifted its Low Voltage
switchboard manufacturing operations from Ahmednagar
to Coimbatore campus, which helped in creating
additional manufacturing capacity for Medium Voltage
products.
The business participated in Asia’s largest electrical fair
‘ELECRAMA’ held at Greater Noida in March, 2018 and
showcased a wide range of offerings, including products
which are lined up for launch in the coming months.

Subsidiaries such as LTEASA and Servowatch also
undertook business re-structuring exercises to achieve
efficiencies in business operations by reducing fixed
overheads.
The business has undertaken numerous initiatives to
improve the use of technology and prepare for the digital
future. This will enable the generation of informative
dashboards from diverse data sources, improve efficiency,
ease out manual work by machine computing and build
artificial intelligence. Initiatives implemented during the
year include:
A. Mobile Applications
• AutoNaT mobility solution for E&A employees
• StockNaT mobile app for channel partners and
customers
• Retail Management Solution for retail sales force,
distributors and retailers
B. Collaboration, Document Management & Workflow –
To create a centralised document repository with work
flow functionality
C. Analytical Reports & Dashboards – Real-time
information on key business metrics.
Listed below are few initiatives on which significant
progress has been made:
1. Asset Intelligence Management (use of Internet of
Things)
• Optimising productive time of machines
• Tool life monitoring and asset tracking
2. Training and education using Augmented Reality /
Virtual reality
• Guided servicing of ‘Omega’ Air Circuit Breaker using
Augmented Reality
• Interactive Induction Training module for new joiners
using virtual reality
Product Launches
In FY 2017-18, the business introduced various new
products in the power distribution, motor control and
power quality market segments to further strengthen its
leadership position. Notable additions include higher rating
air-break and vacuum contactors, 4-Pole MCCBs, electronic
trip units - SR 18G with enhanced features, S-Line copper
busways and S-Line aluminium busways for lower (250A)
ratings, Ti-APFC panels as per IEC61439, APFC relays, etc.
L&T’s Metering & Protection Systems business was engaged
in developing new cost-optimized metering platforms
offering better features to maintain competitiveness in the
market, and the development of new products to meet
the unfulfilled needs of customers. During the year, the
business launched 1-phase and 3-phase kWh meters in
whole current small form factor and prepaid category. It
also actively launched 1-phase and 3-phase smart meters
on various communication platforms in line with emerging
demands and trends.
L&T’s Electrical Systems & Equipment (ESE) business
introduced outdoor cabinets for the telecom segment and
feeder pillars and front RMU with FRTU (Feeder Remote
Terminal Unit) for the utilities segment. For the international
market, a Sub-Main Distribution Board (SMDB) was
introduced to cater to the infrastructure segment such as
T-era Panels
AU Solutions for final distribution – a comprehensive range for real world applications.

metros, airports, smart e-cities, and high-end residential
complexes. ESE also started manufacturing Ring main
units (RMU) and introduced a new variant to its GIS (Gas
insulated switchgear) range.
L&T’s Control and Automation (C&A) business successfully
adapted its in-house developed software for SCADA,
reducing dependence on imported technology. The
business also put in significant efforts towards developing
drives using FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array devices)
and batch controllers.
Business Outlook
In an environment where uptick in private capex is not
visible, liquidity continues to remain a worry; and with
core sectors not holding any promise, fresh order bookings
continue to be a challenge. As per industry estimates, the
LV Switchgear market is expected to grow by 8 to 10 %
and reach R 7,600 crore by 2020.
With the increase in commodity prices and consolidation
of procurement for state DISCOMS, profitability in the
metering business is expected to remain under pressure.
The market for conventional meters is expected to remain
flat. However, in view of the SAUBHAGYA scheme, the
market for smart meters seems to be growing. The trend is
towards higher technology products like AMR, prepaid and
smart meters. UDAY and other centrally funded schemes
like DDUJY and IPDS will lead to improvement in payment
position at utilities.
The automation business is expected to build on its success
in the infrastructure sector. Government regulations, which
have made use of RCCB mandatory, will help the modular
device business to grow. Various announcements made
in the Fiscal Budget FY 2018-19 such as replacement of
existing pumps with energy efficient pumps and increase
in area under drip irrigation are expected to contribute to
higher growth in the agricultural product business. With
new medium voltage products, the switchboard business
will be in a better position to increase its market share in
DISCOMS. Telecom enclosures still look promising and are
expected to generate revenue for the business.
The Marine business envisages a positive sentiment through
the ‘Make in India’ initiative taken by the Government for
emphasizing on indigenous content – which has given
us an edge over foreign suppliers. FY 2018-19 will see
the conclusion of orders for the electrical and degaussing
equipment for 24 ships of the Indian Navy. This provides
the potential to fill up the order book after a lean patch
during the last few years.
With the oil prices improving, investment in the oil & gas
sector of the GCC continues to improve. Growth in the
MENA region is expected to accelerate to 3 % in 2018.
Within MENA, GCC economies are expected to lead due to
stronger growth in the region, supported by easing fiscal
adjustment, infrastructure investment such as the UAE
Expo 2020, and reforms to promote non-oil-sector activity.
In Kuwait and Oman, for all major EPC awards, In-country
Value (ICV) content and Export Credit Agencies (ECA) are
likely to impact the businesses. Major growth is expected
from the infrastructure segment. With the addition of
focused products for infrastructure in the product basket,
we are hopeful of getting a significant share of Infra
business.

Business Environment:
After a prolonged depressed market, signs of recovery are
now visible, with upward movement in crude oil prices due
to production cuts by OPEC countries and Russia. However,
uncertainty with respect to crude oil prices still exists over
the medium to long-term, leading to continued diligence
by the oil & gas industry in making strategic investment
decisions.
This year has also witnessed several consolidations,
partnerships and co-investments among EPCI players.
Companies are adjusting their business models to a period
of recovery. Oil majors are adjusting their portfolios by
adding renewables to their energy slate. IOCs and NOCs
are looking to diversify risk through co-investment outside
their home countries such as Kuwait in Oman, Saudi Arabia
in India and China in UAE. Service providers are hedging
risks through consolidation.
Localization is increasingly becoming a key differentiator.
ADNOC has started implementation of the In-Country
Value (ICV) program while Saudi Aramco is implementing
its In-Kingdom Total Vale Add (IKTVA) program with the
objective of growing and diversifying the economy and
creating opportunities for their nationals in the private
sector. The South East Asian region continues to protect
local players under the ‘Bumiputra’ concept.
Competition remained stiff, with some of the competitors
exercising subsidized prices for limited market potential and
with new entrants achieving pre-qualifications. Regional
players are bidding for Indian projects with an intent to
load their assets and new competitors have also started
bidding for domestic prospects. Commodity prices are
firming up and forex rates continue to be volatile.
Significant Initiatives:
The business has set a vision to ‘Revolutionize the
Hydrocarbon Industry’ and mission of ‘Execution Par
Excellence’.
During the year, the business announced the relaunch
of LAKSHYA 2021, in which strategic imperatives have

been identified for each of its verticals. The Company
lays continued emphasis on sharper bidding to enhance
its market share and execute its projects well to protect
bid margins. The business embarked upon an Operation
Excellence initiative, which is aimed at achieving refined
cost structures, alignment for timely project deliveries, and
optimizing fund deployment. This initiative has started
yielding results for the Company, as reflected in enhanced
cost-competitiveness in its bids and further improvement in
its bottom-line for projects under execution.
The Company’s capability-building initiative has made
significant progress in terms of building its portfolio and
project leadership as well as functional group development.
This initiative is aimed at building globally-benchmarked
project leadership teams for executing large international
projects, and developing and institutionalizing an
international project capability development engine.
Innovation will be a key differentiator for disrupting
set norms and the way business is conducted in the
hydrocarbon sector. An Innovation Think Tank has been
formed to channelize the efforts of the organization
towards enhancing its capability and capacity to enable
sustainable growth and achieve execution par excellence in
every sphere of the enterprise.
The business has continued creating strong central
functions to maximize synergy and to build a platform
for easy transition from vertical to project-centric regional
structure. The Centralized Supply Chain concept was rolled
out and operational improvements institutionalized.
The Company is enhancing its current practices through
digital / new-age technological advances. The business has
also launched a digital transformation initiative towards
further improving productivity across its functions.
Risk Management: Pro-active Risk Management has been
identified as a key strategic initiative to ensure sustainable
growth. Risk Management is an integral part of the overall
governance process to identify, segregate, mitigate,
control and monitor various risks at business, prospect and
operational levels.
The Company’s risk management policy and guidelines
have helped it to create a consistent set of standard
risk tracking templates and measure the risk levels. This
enables it to develop the ability to anticipate and respond
to emerging challenges in a timely manner. Each project
goes through a structured pre-bid risk review and periodic
execution risk reviews, enabling effective monitoring and
raising timely alerts. The Company promotes a culture of
transparency in flagging emerging issues as early warning
signals to management for timely attention.
Internal Controls: The management has established
internal control systems commensurate with the size and
complexity of the business. The internal control manual
provides a structured approach to identify, rectify, monitor
and report gaps in the internal control systems and
processes. The Group follows well-documented Standard
Operating Procedures (SOPs). The operating effectiveness
of various controls is periodically tested, and deficiencies (if
any) are promptly rectified.
Human Resource Development: The business has
implemented several initiatives focused on acquiring
and nurturing talent. It firmly believes that people are
its greatest asset, and has adopted various policies and

initiatives in order to sustain healthy employee relations,
growth and development as well as work satisfaction. The
Company’s commitment to creating a highly engaged work
force is demonstrated through deployment of the GENIE:
Engagement survey, business specific and managerial level
interventions, communication with Senior Management
through forums like ‘Town Hall’, webcast and video
conferencing. The ‘I-Too’ recognition framework, initiatives

In the domestic offshore sector, ONGC has reported
significant oil & gas discovery in its Mumbai High fields,
Production Deck Modules (PDMs) for Saudi Aramco ready for despatch from Modular Fabrication Facility, Hazira
193193
with potential reserves of 29.74 MTOE. Under the Open
Acreage Licensing Policy (OALP), EOIs have been received
by the Government of India from private players for the
shallow water basins. These developments will translate
into EPC tendering by 2020-2022. ONGC is progressing on
its investment for development of deepwater field KG/98-2
on the east coast of India. This will provide significant
opportunities to the Company’s offshore and fabrication
verticals over the medium term, given its strategically
located Kattupalli yard on the east coast and its tie-up
with McDermott and GE to develop cost-effective subsea
solutions. A number of brownfield and decommissioning
projects are expected to come up in the near future. Saudi
Aramco is expected to spend USD 3 billion each year on
offshore capital projects to maintain production.
India has an ambitious plan to nearly double its refining
capacity to about 438 MMTPA by 2030. The gas energy
mix is also expected to shift from the current level of 6.5%
to about 15% by 2022. The demand for petrochemicals
is expected to go up by 10 MMTPA by 2020. Over 11,800
km of PNGRD-authorized pipeline projects are pending
implementation.
The Indian Public Sector refineries have embarked on

plants at Gorakhpur, Sindri and Barauni. Energy-efficiency
improvement projects are being actively pursued by
fertilizer units.
The Government is focusing on setting up LNG
infrastructure and investments in LNG receiving plants.
Both land-based terminals as well as Floating Storage
Regasification Units (FSRU) are on the anvil.
The GCC will see higher outlays for downstream and
petrochemical projects, particularly in Saudi Arabia, the
UAE and Kuwait. Saudi Aramco plans to spend over USD
300 billion over the next 10 years, while UAE and Kuwait
are planning to spend USD 109 billion and USD 112 billion
respectively over next 5 years. The integrated refinery
and petrochemical complex model continues to gain
momentum.
Towards providing geographical risk diversification, the
Company is looking to explore newer markets which offer
good long-term business potential, and has undertaken
intense pre-qualification efforts. Algeria, Iraq and Indonesia
will see increased levels of activity, and will potentially offer
differentiated margins.
Shale gas / oil will drive petrochemical and fertilizer
investment in the US, offering opportunities for high-value
engineering and modular fabrication services.

its virtuous risk management and corporate governance
practices.
The Company is focussed on amplifying outcomes for
its clients by:
1. Strategy
LTI’s overall business strategy for long-term growth has
the following key elements:
• Enabling new business models
• Enabling revenue growth
• Client-centricity
• Transforming customer and employee experiences
• Deliver amplified outcomes to our clients
• Next-gen efficient operations
• Investing in new technologies to build differentiated
service offerings
• Transforming as an organization to align ourselves in
this dynamic world
• Focusing on new large transformation deals
• Expanding in new geographies
• Investing in new avenues through partnerships,
alliances and acquisitions
Client-centricity is at the nucleus of the Company’s
strategy, with primary focus on solving complex
problems at the convergence of the digital and
physical world for its clients. LTI’s long association
with key clients and understanding of their business
and investment in account management teams has
positioned it well to deliver profitable growth. The
Company has posted significant improvement in client
satisfaction over the last two years.
LTI sees its customers’ world changing through tectonic
changes in technology. There are three things that are
happening in the industry: First, there are exponential
technologies that are available today. Second, these are
all-new technologies, and they are new for everyone –
no one has the incumbency advantage. Third, to help
clients navigate and win in these times, one needs
deep business knowledge to imagine and co-create
with the customer. To facilitate and deliver amplified
outcomes to its clients, the Company has embraced the
concept of ‘Shoshin’, beginner’s mind – a mind that
has openness, eagerness, and lack of preconceptions.
In the beginner’s mind, there are many possibilities; in
the expert’s mind, there are few. Expertise is important
however, and what is needed is the willingness and
openness to keep learning – and then keep building
expertise.
The Company’s relentless focus on digital, analytics,
automation, IoT and cloud technologies through its
proprietary Mosaic™ platform is helping it stand out in
the marketplace. Its cutting-edge work in these areas

196
has been recognized by leading industry tech analysts in
numerous studies.
The Company continues to move on its own path of
transformation – ‘Change from Within’. The Company
executed a comprehensive brand launch and global
rollout during FY’18. LTI’s modern corporate identity
reflects its aspiration to be a next-generation IT services
company with deep understanding of physical and
digital convergence. LTI also expanded its European
footprint by setting up its latest development centre in
Poland in FY’18.
To accelerate its revenue growth, the Company
has adopted a three-pronged approach, focusing
on partnerships, acquisitions and association with
start-up ecosystems. Together, these would assist in
driving amplified outcomes for its clients. In FY’18,
the Company acquired Luxembourg-based Syncordis
S.A., a leading core banking implementation services
provider. This acquisition is poised to aid in growing
LTI’s presence in Europe by deepening capabilities in
the Banking & Financial services sector. The Company
has also created 360-degree relationships with a few
select partners, viewing them as global growth engines.
The Company is creating an ecosystem to partner with
innovators around the world and co-create value for
clients through association with 600+ start-ups, using
inputs from L&T’s other businesses.
2. Opportunities
The Company has strong domain expertise derived from
its parentage. It is at an inflexion point, being the right
size to attain the agility of a start-up while maintaining
the stability of an established player – which gives it a
competitive advantage over its peers.
a) Banking & Financial Services: In the US market,
the softening of regulatory changes has resulted
in more funds being diverted to digital and data
projects, with an intent to increase efficiency.
They are increasingly adopting cloud infrastructure
to drive down costs through radical automation
and superior asset utilization. They are moving
towards master data management and analytics to
allow for a single view of the customer and easier
regulatory response and operations. However, in
Europe, the focus will remain on modernizing core
banking operations. The anxiety towards Cloud and
Blockchain has subsided to a certain extent as banks
see these as technology enablers rather than mass
disruptors. Clients are relying on strategic partners,
such as LTI, to help establish the new iterative model
that some banks are looking to adopt.
b) Insurance: Spend on digital transformation
is the emerging trend in this sector, despite
the pressure on run-the-business spend. Life
annuity insurers are focused on digital, optimized
workflow and operating efficiencies as they
face changing customer expectations. Property
and casualty insurers are focused on analytics
and speed-to-market, as market competition
and the threat of adverse selection drives their
need for better and faster product deployment.
LTI has built deep expertise in leading insurance
products like Duck Creek, Insurity and Guidewire,
and has unique offerings (digital and non-digital)
that can help clients reduce turnaround time
for operations, one of the core enablers for
cost reduction.
c) Manufacturing: There are three key trends
emerging in this vertical. First, cloud-enabled IT
modernization has become mainstream, and more
and more clients are embarking on programmes to
move majority workloads to the cloud and reduce
the cost of maintaining internal data centres.
Second, manufacturing entities are proactively
assessing ERP modernization, especially in SAP and
Oracle economies. Third, clients in this industry have
or are building definitive roadmaps for creating
digital-ready application landscapes for agility. With
its focus on Industry 4.0, LTI is uniquely positioned
to address the digital transformation journey for
its clients.
d) Energy and Utility: Clients in this space are
focusing on technology to streamline operations
for cost reduction. Digital investments are majorly
focused on IoT, Analytics, Mobility and Cloud
adoption. Advanced analytics is a major investment
area for oil & gas companies. Augmented reality
and drones to aid worker productivity, and
wearables to provide over-the-shoulder coaching to
workers are some of the next-gen areas where LTI
sees traction in this market.
e) CPG, Retail and Pharma: Large players
in CPG/retail industry segment are facing
intense local competition. Consumers are seen
to drift towards more online purchases, and
it becomes imperative for these large players
to directly engage with the consumers. LTI
has helped clients in their participation across
the customer journey through smart support,
chat bots and automated interactions, and will
continue to enhance its offerings to reinforce such
digital interaction.
197
f) Hi-Tech, Media and Entertainment: In the
M&E space, the changing demographic mix is
leading to shifting spend patterns and is impacting
ad-supported businesses. The Company sees hi-tech
clients focus on faster speed-to-market initiatives,
energy-efficient smart devices and industry models
shifting towards pay-per-use models.
Digital Business
Digital strategy is evolving with unprecedented speed
of change in our clients’ businesses. It is creating new
businesses and new paradigms for clients. The Company
aims to be the digital transformation partner for clients to
build their digital business and thrive in the digital era. New
methodologies, like design-driven delivery, help collapse
layers and be more agile for clients.
For LTI, Digital will not just be a set of capabilities. It
will be a Way of Working (WoW) and has these core
components:
• Cutting-edge capabilities

• Keep learning
• Solve for society
As on March 31, 2018, LTI’s headcount was 24,139.
During FY’18, the Company added 2900+ net new hires.
Compared to FY’17, LTI improved on attrition – the full-year
attrition was 14.8% in FY’18 as compared to 16.9% last
year.
Outlook, Risks and Concerns
The businesses of LTI’s clients are being impacted
at an unprecedented speed by the world of digital
and exponential technologies. LTI has made
proactive investments in digital technologies, bringing its
in-house expertise together under the Mosaic™ platform
and enhancing these offerings through acquisitions.
Today, enterprises want to work with partners that are
agile, can de-clutter new technologies and can co-create
solutions with them. LTI’s sustained investments in
digital and exponential technologies are establishing
the Company as the partner-of-choice for its customers
worldwide.
In FY’18, LTI delivered an industry-leading revenue growth
of 16.7% in USD terms. With intense focus on client
success and comprehensive transformation capabilities
across digital, analytics, IoT, automation and cloud, LTI is
optimistic about its future.

Significant Initiatives
(a) Human Resources: The Human Resources function
plays a pivotal role in this transformation journey by
ensuring organizational efficiency and promoting the
right culture. To sustain growth, LTFH is investing in
building its talent pool by developing skills internally
208
and attracting the best talent in the industry. As on
31st March 2018, LTFH had a total workforce of 15,126
employees across all subsidiaries.
A culture of ‘Results not Reasons’: After another year of
delivering excellent results, LTFH is constantly working
towards strengthening its foothold in each business and
striving to reach a dominant position. Achieving these
results was no mean feat, but LTFH succeeded because
of its strong core values and the inculcation of a culture
of ‘Results not Reasons’, which gave razor sharp focus
to meet its goals.
Scalability: LTFH continuously evaluates and optimizes
the organization structures in line with its business
priorities. The Human Resources department worked
in tandem with the business to ensure that there were
the ‘right people’ to meet growth ambitions. LTFH
had significant growth ambition which called for new
geographic expansion as well as growth in existing
geographies.
Capability building: Another important agenda
was to augment capabilities at the middle and senior
management levels. For building the leaders of
tomorrow, LTFH continues to give cross-functional
exposure through various projects and internal job
postings. LTFH invites world class faculty for senior
management training sessions to facilitate discussions
on business practices and issues. LTFH organizes
individual level coaching with experienced business
practitioners for leadership development.
Driving Productivity: The ultimate metric for success
is continuous improvement in productivity. LTFH takes
pride in calling itself a performance driven organization.
A rewards and recognition mechanism is implemented
across LTFH to keep the morale high and formally
appreciate the efforts of a competitive and talented
workforce.
(b) Risk Management: Risk management forms an
integral part of the LTFH’s businesses. LTFH has a
robust and comprehensive credit assessment and
risk management framework to identify, monitor
and manage risks inherent in its operations. The Risk
Management framework covers various families of risk
like credit risk, market risk and operational risk.
Credit Risk: With the objective of growing fearlessly
in the segments in which LTFH is operating, target
markets are clearly identified and understood with
scoping of opportunity given the competitive landscape.
Credit underwriting standards, at micro and macro
levels, determine the minimum acceptable level of risk
appetite acceptable while building up the business
portfolios.
Market Risk: On the market risk front, liquidity,
interest rate and concentration risks are the key
drivers. On a day-to-day basis, a Treasury Strategy team
manages these risks with an oversight from market risk
function, under the overall supervision of ALCO and
periodic reviews by the Risk Management Committee.
Operational Risk: Operational risk is inherent to
processes and systems and a dedicated team monitors
operational risks and incidents, including the robustness
of various processes, systems and information security
related matters. Operational processes have been
streamlined with critical processes being centralised to
ensure consistency, control and oversight.
LTFH was awarded the ‘Golden Peacock Award for
Risk Management 2017’ for robust risk management
processes. This prestigious award is being given
annually by the Institute of Directors, New Delhi for
over 25 years as recognition of high standards in various
domains of corporate governance.
(c) Digital & Analytics: LTFH has designed an architecture
that enables it to enhance its ‘right to win’ in focus
products by offering a unique proposition to the
customers in terms of Turnaround Time (TAT). LTFH
wants to inculcate Digital & Analytics (D&A) into
the culture of LTFH. In order to achieve the same,
LTFH has initiated a project to rewire the complete
business operations, where technology will orchestrate
processes. The IT architecture has been completely
revamped to create a digital workplace. The following
initiatives are currently being taken by the Company:
1. Automation: All the processes in the customer
life cycle are being relooked at and LTFH wants to
achieve straight-through processes across all its
retail businesses.
2. Technology Infrastructure: From using on
premise technology infrastructure to cloud- based
infrastructure, LTFH intends to leverage the power
of cloud computing during peak hours.
3. Integrated Operations: LTFH has created a service-
oriented architecture by deploying an Enterprise
Service Bus which enables it to bend as an when
requirement changes and interact with data that
could be accessed from anywhere in the world.
4. Fintech Partnership: LTFH has started collaborating
with fintechs, where innovative services are being
consumed as a service rather than developing it in
house.
5. Data Analytics: LTFH has set up a full-strength
data analytics team to enable the Company to take
data-based decisions.
(d) Corporate Social Responsibility: LTFH aligns its social
responsibility theme and commitment with the United
Nation’s global development agenda of Sustainable
Development Goals (SDG). Key initiatives are woven
around sustainable livelihoods of rural communities
facilitated by two spaces of intervention – Integrated
Water Resource Management (IWRM) and financial
inclusion / literacy for women empowerment.
The IWRM programme engages with the communities
to prepare and implement interventions which
address their core needs on water conservation and
rejuvenation.
Through financial inclusion and digital financial literacy,
LTFH has designed a programme ‘Digital Sakhi’ which
is making efforts to create livelihood opportunities
for women by educating them to imbibe nuances of
digital financial literacy. The women are equipped with
a mobile tablet with preloaded digital financial literacy
(DFL) modules to disseminate information on digital
payments and other relevant government schemes in
the community.

Developmental
Projects
Business
Developmental Projects business segment comprises:
(a) Infrastructure projects executed through its joint venture
company L&T Infrastructure Development Limited and
its subsidiaries and associates (L&T IDPL Group)
(b) the Hyderabad Metro Rail project, executed through its
subsidiary L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad Limited
(c) Power development projects executed through its
subsidiary L&T Power Development Limited and its
subsidiaries (L&T PDL Group) and

The operations of the Developmental Projects business
segment primarily involves development, operation and
maintenance of basic infrastructure projects in the Public
Private Partnership (PPP) format; toll collection including
annuity based road projects, power development and
power transmission, and providing related advisory services.
Significant cash generating assets have been created under
the current business model, which are being explored for
Rajpura Supercritical Thermal Power Plant
monetization on a continuous basis in order to maximize
value creation for the benefit of stakeholders.
L&T Infrastructure Development
Projects Limited (L&T IDPL)
Overview
L&T Infrastructure Development Projects Limited
(L&T IDPL) is one of India’s biggest Developers of
Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects.
Since its inception in 1995, L&T IDPL has executed
and financed landmark infrastructure projects across
Transport and Energy, including Highways, Ports,
Airports, Transmission lines, Hydel Energy and Urban
Infrastructure, including Water. L&T IDPL currently
operates 16 completed infrastructure projects in
transport and energy across 8 Indian states, with a
mix of toll and annuity assets. As of March 2018, L&T
IDPL’s portfolio had an estimated total project cost of
R 17718 crore.
Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB), the
largest pension fund in Canada, invested R 2000 crore
as share capital in L&T IDPL in 2014-15. This is the first
direct private investment by a Canadian pension fund
into an Indian Infrastructure Development company.
Over two decades of extensive experience in working
with Governments, multi-lateral agencies, international
and domestic financial institutions and corporate
entities has helped L&T IDPL to develop proven
competencies in project financing and execution,
210
210
across viability assessment, financial closure, project
management, operations & maintenance and portfolio
management of infrastructure assets in various sectors.
In addition to its project portfolio, L&T IDPL has
installed Wind Energy Generators (WEGs) with a
capacity of 8.7 MW in Tamil Nadu in March 2010. The
energy generated is utilized for captive consumption.
The WEGs are eligible for 16,128 Carbon Emission
Reduction (CER) certificates per year until 2022
as a result of the carbon reduction by these wind
generators.
Business Environment
During 2017-18, the business environment has been quite
vibrant. L&T IDPL focused on excellence in O&M (operation
and maintenance) of its existing 16 assets while there
was constant evaluation of emerging opportunities in the
PPP space. This evaluation was carried out for both new
construction projects as also existing Government owned
infrastructure assets that have been completed and are
being offered for O&M. Notable developments in both
sets of opportunities and the business environment are as
follows:
Roads: Construction of highways reached 9,829 km
during FY 2017-18, with an all-time high of 27 km per
day. This represents a 20% growth over the previous
year. Expenditure of R 1,16,324 crore was incurred on
construction of national highways during 2017-18. The PPP
space witnessed a revival of sorts with the following key
developments:
1. Launch & listing of the first Infrastructure Investment
Trust (InvIT) in May 2017 (six toll-road assets comprising
Hyderabad Metro Rail project
3,645 lane km) triggering other developers to explore
this opportunity to monetize mature road assets and
bring down debt exposure.
2. Road developers, who until recently focused on projects
that required them to invest heavily and bear major risks
over long periods, have shifted to focus to an asset-light
model like Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM), introduced in
order to re-balance the risk sharing. Of the total length
awarded by NHAI in fiscal year 2018, awarded 150 road
projects of 7,400 km worth R 1,22,000 crore. Of the
total length awarded, 3,396 km (~46%) was awarded
on Hybrid Annuity model at a cost of R 76,500 crore
and 209 km (~3%) on Toll mode at a cost of R 2,500
crore. Commercial banks have selectively financed these
HAM projects based on the standing of the developer/
sponsor. There is growing competition in the HAM
model with most contractor-developers now bidding for
projects.
3. Successful bid-out by NHAI of the first
Toll-Operate-Transfer (TOT) bundle comprising
of 9 NH projects realizing about R 96.81 billion
for operational road projects aggregating to
a length of about 700 km.
4. Implementation of GST and E-way Bill; the unified
tax regime has obviated the need for interstate check
posts which has resulted in reducing the travel time
of long-haul trucks and other cargo vehicles by over
one-fifth and improved the turnaround time of the
fleet. Improved traffic numbers coupled with positive
WPI growth has led to a double-digit growth in
revenues for most road developers.
211
211
5. Introduction of FASTags (electronic toll collection)
by NHAI has led to decongestion at toll plazas and
prevention of toll revenue leakage. L&T IDPL toll plazas
witnessed a substantial increase in electronic tolling
from 7% in Dec 2016 to 24% in June 2018.
6. As per the Economic Survey 2017-18, the road sector
alone has NPAs of R 36,596 crore. Rising NPAs, higher
risk provisioning assigned to road sector and dwindling
profits in the road sector have made banks reduce
exposure to the infrastructure sector.
7. Commitment by several large pension funds and long
term infra-focussed funds to the Indian infrastructure
space along with NIIF of the Union Government is
expected to boost the secondary market for TOT
projects.
Transmission Lines: Around 23,119 circuit kms of
transmission lines and 86,193 MVA of transformation
capacity was added during FY 2017-2018. REC TPCL (REC
Transmission Projects Company Limited, a 100% subsidiary
of Rural Electrification Corporation) the Bid Process
Coordinator (BPC) for Transmission Lines on the TBCB (Tariff
Based Competitive Bidding) route has awarded two bids
during FY 2017-2018.
A large number of Intrastate Transmission Line bids are
expected in the coming years.
During the first quarter of FY 2018, an InvIT was
successfully launched and listed in the Transmission Line
sector (two power transmission projects with a total circuit
length of approximately 1,936 ckms, and 6,000 MVA of
transformation capacity).
Significant Developments in the current year
During 2017-18, L&T IDPL completed two of its highway
projects, L&T Deccan Tollway and L&T Sambalpur
Rourkela Tollways, both of which achieved commercial
operations and commenced toll collection. These
two highways are generating revenues of about.
R 60 Lakhs per day.
Overall, gross toll revenue of R 1892.94 crore grew by 19%
over the last fiscal, despite muted WPI growth of 3%
Electronic toll collections through FASTag saw a large jump.
Further to the push of less-cash drive of Government of
India, L&T IDPL FASTag collections went up by 87% (June
2017 to June 2018).
The transmission line business had gross collection of
R 202.26 crore as annuity payments.
In May 2018, L&T IDPL became the first infrastructure
sponsor to successfully launch a private placed InvIT
(infrastructure investment trust) with an initial portfolio of
five road assets. This InvIT raised R 3700 crore, with 55% of
the funds coming from international investors from Canada
and Germany. InvIT has enabled L&T IDPL to monetize five
of its assets, repaying bank loans and providing growth
capital; It also provides L&T IDPL a platform for operating
assets, both existing and future.

Outlook:
In the coming year, L&T IDPL would constantly evaluate
new opportunities with worthwhile returns, with a special
focus on highways and transmission lines, while other
sectors could be taken up on a project-wise basis. L&T IDPL
would also focus on operational excellence for its existing
asset portfolio. To ensure this, L&T IDPL is undergoing
Project LEAP, a Business Excellence Initiative.
L&T IDPL looks forward to more PPP infrastructure projects
in both project construction and asset monetization.
We also hope for quicker dispute resolution processes,
wherein several of our claims and court cases may see
final determination. L&T IDPL would also engage with
all stakeholders to ensure accounting policies and other
enabling environment is conducive to its business.
L&T IDPL would also evaluate operational assets from the
secondary market and shall seek to acquire such assets
(primarily covering Highways & Transmission Lines) which
meet the investment benchmarks. L&T IDPL would also
seek to re-enter projects in Bulk/Industrial Water and
Railways.

monetization of Transit Oriented Development.
The Metro Rail system includes construction of three
elevated corridors from Miyapur to L. B. Nagar,
Jubilee Bus Station to Falaknuma and from Nagole to
Shilparamam, covering a total distance of 71.16 km.
The concession period of the project is for 35 years
including the initial construction period of 5 years. The
Concession period is extendable for a further period of
25 years subject to fulfilment of certain conditions by
the Company as set out in the Concession Agreement.
The estimated project cost is R 16,375 crore which
includes the cost of rail system and 6 million TOD
which is to be funded by a term loan of R 11,478
crore, equity share capital of R 3,439 crore and
Viability Gap Fund from Government of R 1,458
crores. The company has tied up its entire debt and
achieved financial closure on 1st March 2011. The
Government of Telangana has declared the appointed
date as 5th July, 2012 upon fulfilment of the condition
precedents (CP) from both the parties i.e. L&T Metro
Rail (Hyderabad) Limited and the State Government.
The Company is executing the project, covering a
total distance of 71.16 km in 3 different corridors.
This entire distance is further sub-divided into 6
stages for ease of implementation. The project cost
213
213
incurred during the year 2017-18 is R 2,241 crore and
cumulative up to 31.03.2018 is R 14,723 crore. The
Hon’ble Prime Minister inaugurated a 30 km stretch
of the Metro Rail System on 28th November, 2017
connecting Miyapur to Ameerpet in Corridor 1 and
Ameerpet to Nagole in Corridor 3.
The overall physical progress of the project as on
31.03.2018 is 81%. Construction works in Stage 4 and
5 are nearly complete. The Company is aiming for the
commencement of commercial services from Ameerpet
to LB Nagar and Ameerpet to Hitec city before
December 2018. Stage 6/1 is slated for completion
during first quarter of next financial year.
As per the Concession Agreement (CA), the scheduled
Commercial Operation (COD) date for the entire
project length of 71.16 km was 5th July, 2017.
However, due to delays in getting RoW and confirming
alignment changes, the construction of the project
has got delayed. The lenders have accorded sanction
of extension of time for COD up to two years i.e.,
up to 5th July, 2019 with a corresponding increase in
the loan period. As per the revised schedule, the loan
repayment will start from 30th September, 2020. The
corresponding cost implications are being assessed for
claiming compensation.
TOD Projects commenced commercial operations at
Punjagutta (0.48 million sq. ft. office space during
Nov. ‘17 and mall space during Feb. ‘18) and at Hitec
city (0.21 million sq. ft. mall space during Feb18).
Two other malls at Errum Manzil (0.35 million sq. ft.)
and Musarambagh (0.24 million sq. ft.) are nearing
Kudgi Power Transmission Line project, Karnataka
completion. Strategies to develop the Raidurg site,
which is a large parcel of land, at a prime location and
has a potential of 3.20 million sq. ft. of mall space and
office buildings, are underway.
Viability Grant of Funding (VGF) is being released by
the Central Government from time to time as per
eligibility and the total VGF drawn stood at R 1204
crore as on 31st March, 2018.
Business Environment
About 10 million transport trips are performed every
day in Hyderabad city and the major share is taken by
bus transport (50%). The city roads are congested,
with only 8% road area and a very low average speed
(about 8 kmph). The Company is poised to provide
safe and punctual travel and has been working on
various value-added initiatives including last mile
connectivity, digital ticketing and a Mobile app to minimize
commuters’ pain points, ensuring higher ridership on the
metro system.
Non-fare revenue generation through cross-selling of
products to commuters is being increasingly explored. This
will be further strengthened by Metro expansion, which will
result in higher ridership. The Government of Telangana has
plans to implement Phase II of the Metro project, covering
85 km (including the Airport link). This will enhance the
average ridership on the Metro system significantly due to
the network effect.
The Company has been granted rights for Real Estate
development with strategically located land parcels
214
214
interspersed at prime city locations, adjoining metro
Stations and metro corridors. Developments would
encompass Grade-A commercial developments for IT/ITES
Office, Healthcare, Retail and Hospitality. Advertisement
space offers good revenue potential through unlocking
various innovative products and services.
Significant Initiatives
The Company has tied-up with a solar power developer
for generating captive solar power of about 10 MW at a
very competitive price, which will generate about 10% of
energy requirement of Metro trains. The Company has also
received concessional rate of R 4.95/- per Unit (cheapest in
the country) for electricity.
The Company is exploring various non-fare revenue
generating options through optimization of resources
developed in-house for the past 5 years, namely:
• Leasing out space for erecting mobile towers.
• Skywalks connecting the malls & metros leading to
increase in footfall and increased ridership
• Tie up with cab operators
• Leasing out Optical Fibre
• Training our upcoming metro staff with the existing
infrastructure
• Consultancy services for other metros.
The Company has developed models to obviate TOD
related threats, while leveraging the various advantages
of the offering like metro-rail connect, strategic locational
offering, etc., and has also obtained automatic step-in-
rights by the Government for specific retailers by which, the
risk in the event of termination is mitigated. The Company
has also re-negotiated contracts with various project
contractors to minimize the claims, on account of extension
of time.
Outlook:
The Company is planning to open another two stages
of Metro (Stage 4 & Stage 5) in FY 2018-19, thus taking
the total metro operations to 56 km, with an expected
overall ridership of approx. 6.15 lakhs per day. Measures
like fare integration with other transport modes and
collaborations with various feeder services for first and
last mile connectivity are being taken to strengthen fare
revenue. The Company is also exploring other Non-Fare
Revenue initiatives like consultancy services with in-house
competency on Metro system, Wi-Fi, Radio, etc., that will
add extra revenue to the Company.
Buoyed by the success of Phase 1 Malls, the Company
intends to start with a 0.5 million sq. mall at Raidurg
along with 0.15 million sq. mall at Rasoolpura. Discussions
with customers to kick start a few other developments
of the portfolio are underway. Measures are being taken
to upfront the cash inflows on advertisement services by
entering into longer tenure contracts.

Thermal Power Projects – Nabha Power Limited (NPL)
NPL owns and operates a 2X700 MW supercritical
thermal power plant at Rajpura, Punjab. Under the Power
Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Punjab State Power
Corporation Limited (PSPCL), which is for a period of
twenty-five years, the entire power generated from this
plant is sold to PSPCL. The plant is built on super critical
215
technology of Mitsubishi, Japan. It is the first ‘made in
India’ supercritical power plant to be commissioned and
operational in the country.
The plant sources its fuel from South Eastern Coalfields
Ltd. (subsidiary of Coal India Limited) under a 20-year
Fuel Supply Agreement (FSA). The Company also secured
approvals to arrange coal from alternative sources to make
up for any shortage in supply of coal under the FSA. The
State Government has allocated the perennial source of
water for the plant from the Bhakra-Nangal distributary.
The plant is operated by an in-house team of experienced
operations and maintenance professionals.
The power plant has been running successfully for over
four years with an availability of 85% during FY18.
NPL has been the most reliable source of power for the
state of Punjab and has supported its requirements with
uninterrupted supply during peak season.
NPL also happens to be the lowest cost power producer
within Punjab with benchmark-setting operational
efficiency.
Business Environment
India’s Electricity Generation grew at 6% in FY 18 and
there was addition of 5.44 GW of Thermal Energy Capacity
Additions in the same period. The Power Demand in Punjab
was 4671 MW (Q4 2018), registering a 10% increase over
the demand in the corresponding period last year.
During the year, the power sector was grappling
with a severe coal shortage. NPL had a lower Plant
Availability Factor (PAF) due to a forced shutdown in
October ’17 on account of coal shortages. However, the
plant imported coal to augment coal supplies and ensured
a PAF of 85%.
Third Party Sampling and testing through CIMFR (Central
Institute of Mining and Fuel Research) has been operating
quite well to mitigate the grade slippage issues in linkage
coal.
Significant Milestones and Initiatives

emission reduction 220 Tons p.a.
• Reliability Centred Maintenance approach implemented
• Performance linked allocation made for improvement in
coal quality
• Reduction in interest cost through reduction in borrowing
and lower interest rate achieved through innovative
financing instruments
• Awards received:
• Excellent Energy Efficiency Unit, CII, Hyderabad
• Top Plant Award, Power Magazine, USA
• Best Thermal Generation Unit, IPPAI
• Gold Award in Environment, Health & Safety, Grow
Care India

• Best Employer Brand Award, EBI
• CSR initiatives in the area of development of village
infrastructure, education, skill building, gender equality,
health and environment were implemented during the
year
The Company is committed to generate reliable and
environment- friendly power under safe working
conditions. Emphasis is laid on continual improvement of
processes and practices to achieve improved environmental,
health and safety performance. Training on HSE for
employees and stake holders is undertaken on a regular
basis to foster a culture of health and safety.
Outlook
The major focus areas for NPL during FY19 would be
maximising plant availability, improving operational
efficiency, enhancing fuel quality, resolving the regulatory
issues, collection of disputed receivables, cost reduction
initiatives and Health, Safety and Environment compliances.
With issues relating to coal allocation under Fuel Supply
Agreement coupled with logistic constraints, fuel availability
continues to be challenging in FY 19 too. Procuring
higher quantities of imported coal, encouraging PSPCL
for diversion of coal lying in other Power Plants to NPL
216
and pursuing increase in coal allocation would ensure Fuel
Security.
Increasing global warming and need for long-term
sustainable energy security have renewed the focus on
the traditionally most clean hydro-power. Accordingly, the
Government is considering policy initiatives for the revival
of the hydro-power sector. The Company expects that
approval and timely implementation of these initiatives by
the Government in the near future may positively impact
the hydro-power development in the country.
Marine Infrastructure Developer Private Limited :
Kattupalli Port
Kattupalli Port at Chennai, a container port with a capacity
to handle 1.2 million TEUs per annum has a container
terminal with two container berths, and has been accorded
SEZ co-developer status. During the year 2015-16, the
Company (L&T) entered into an agreement with Adani
Group (a port operator) to demerge the port business and
divest the stake in the resulting company. In the current
year 2018-19, the Company has divested its ownership
and has completed the transfer of the port ownership in
entirety.
217
Financial Review 2017-18
I. L&T CONSOLIDATED
A. PERFORMANCE REVIEW
The Company performed well on all the parameters during
the financial year 2017-18, with pick-up in domestic
investment climate. The slew of measures implemented
over the last year or so - including demonetisation, Real
Estate Regulatory Act, Goods & Services Tax, Insolvency
& Bankruptcy Code have resulted in some short-term
disruptions. In the long term, however, these are expected
to give rise to a new economic order. This will have
potential to significantly enhance revenues and channelize
the funds for inclusive economic development. The
Government’s thrust on strengthening infrastructure and
the ‘Make for India’ concept for key strategic areas, will
provide opportunities to the Company’s various business
segments. Also, the rise in commodity prices is likely to
result in capacity additions by the industry. During the
year, the Company was beneficiary of the initial impact of
such measures, which is expected to gather momentum as
we go forward.
On the global front, uncertainties continue, as developed
economies have started backing protectionist policies
and the geo-political climate is giving rise to new trade
partners, impacting the way of doing business. However,
with hardening of oil prices, the investment momentum
in Middle East, a major market for the Company outside
India, is expected to improve. The Company continues
to be selective in addressing the international market.
The business environment remained competitive, with
both domestic and international players fighting for the
opportunities available.
Against the backdrop of such an environment, the Group
recorded satisfactory growth during the year with steady
performance of its businesses in diverse sectors. The
Company continued to focus on its goal of maximizing
shareholder value creation by exiting non-core businesses,
implementing operational excellence initiatives to have
profitable growth and containing working capital along
with better fund management. During the year the
Company sold two of its subsidiaries EWAC Alloys Limited
and L&T Cutting Tools Limited. The Company is awaiting
regulatory approval for conclusion of its stake sale in a
container port in Tamil Nadu. In November 2017, L&T
Metro Rail (Hyderabad) Limited, a subsidiary company,
commissioned a 30 km stretch of metro rail network in the
city of Hyderabad. Another subsidiary company viz. Nabha
Power Limited, which houses two thermal power plants at
Rajpura, received a favourable Supreme Court judgement
on matters affecting the viability of the Company. The year
also saw growth consolidation in some businesses, while
the listed entities within the group - L&T Infotech Limited,
L&T Technology Services and L&T Financial Services -
recorded notable growth, with expansion of business and
new acquisitions.
As at March 31, 2018, L&T Group comprises 93
subsidiaries, 8 associates, 34 joint venture companies and
33 joint operations. Most of the group companies are
strategic extensions of the project and product businesses
of L&T. Project business catering to the hydrocarbon sector
is housed in a separate set of group companies to provide
the business with focus and independent functioning. The
majority of the subsidiaries support L&T’s core businesses
and enable access to new geographies, products and
business segments. Certain distinct service businesses
- such as Information Technology, Technology Services,
Developmental Projects and Financial Services - are housed
in separate subsidiary and joint venture companies of L&T.
Order Inflow & Order Book
L&T Group achieved an order inflow of R 152908 crore
during the year 2017-18, achieving a growth of 6.9%
over the previous year. The revival of the domestic
market compensated for the slight lull on the back of
depressed oil prices in Middle East, the major market for
the Company. The domestic market evidenced a pick-up
in capex finalization by public sector and Government
undertakings. Also, the year saw movement in the
award of orders from the private sector, resulting from
strengthening of commodity prices and improvement in
investment climate. Domestic order inflow increased by
15.3% to 76.6% of total order inflow, despite ordering
momentum yet to gather pace in sectors like Defence,
the preference there being on public sector enterprises.
International order inflow declined by 13.6% to 23.4% of
total order inflow. Further, geographical spread of order
inflow changed during the year, with the Middle East
contributing a lower share of 44.8%, which was earlier
64.9%.
Order Inflow growth was mainly driven by the
Infrastructure segment, contributing 57.1% of the total
order inflow for the year. Infrastructure growth was led by
some large value, prestigious orders received in Heavy Civil
Infrastructure, Building & Factories and Water & Effluent
Treatment. The respective businesses of the Company
have been beneficiaries of the improved investment
environment in India – accruing from the National
Highway Authority of India, Dedicated Freight Corridor,
Saubhagya Scheme, Mass Transit Systems, Airport
expansion programmes, Andhra Pradesh Infrastructure
Development, Refinery Expansions, Water Management
programmes, in addition to some private sector expansion
capex.
218
A robust order book of R 263107 crore as at March 31,
2018 gives multi-year revenue and margin visibility to the
Company. With current year order inflow being domestic
centric, the composition of international order book
declined to 23.8% as at March 31, 2018, as compared to
26.7% in the previous year. As a result of introduction of
Goods & Services Tax, the order book has been adjusted,
since revenue excludes GST.
Infrastructure segment continues to contribute 74% of
the consolidated order book, comprising mainly Heavy
Civil Infrastructure 18%, Building & Factories 17%,
Transportation Infrastructure 14%, Power Transmission &
Distribution 14% and Water & Effluent Treatment 11%.
With reduced opportunities in the Power sector, the share
in order book has declined from 5% to 4%.
The growth in revenue was achieved despite transitory
disruptions due to GST implementation during the
year. Growth was largely contributed by Heavy Civil
Infrastructure, Water & Effluent Treatment, Transportation
Infrastructure, Hydrocarbon, Heavy Engineering and
Services business. Delayed order awards impacted
Metallurgical & Material Handling, while limited
opportunities and intense price competition impacted
revenue accruals in Power and Valves businesses
respectively. Growth in L&T’s Electrical & Automation
business was supported by improved demand for standard
products, particularly the metering systems.
Operating Cost and PBDIT
Manufacturing, Construction and Operating (MCO)
expenses at R 83305 crore increased by 6.7% over
FY 2016-17, registering improved operational efficiency.
These expenses mainly comprise cost of construction
material, raw materials and components, subcontracting
expenses and interest costs of Financial Services business.
Revenue from Operations
L&T Group recorded revenue of R 119862 crore during
the year, registering a growth of 9%. Adjusted for Excise
Duty in the previous year, the growth on a like-to-like basis
was 9.5%. Revenue earned from international operations
comprised 33% as compared to 34% in the previous year.
219
Staff expenses for the year 2017-18 at R 15292 crore
increased by 10.4% over the previous year. Staff Cost as a
percentage of revenue marginally increased to 12.8% from
12.6%, mainly due to addition of resources for growth of
the IT & TS businesses. The Company continues to focus
on improved productivity, digitalization and manpower
rationalization.
Exceptional Items
Exceptional items of R 123 crore during the year represent
gain on divestment of stake in two wholly owned
subsidiaries, EWAC Alloys Limited and L&T Cutting Tools
Limited, net of provisions made towards uncertain recovery
of outstanding from a customer referred under Insolvency
& Bankruptcy Code.
Sales and administration expenses increased by 10.1%
y-o-y to R 7693 crore, mainly due to higher provisioning
by Financial Services, Development Projects, Infrastructure
and Hydrocarbon business, partly compensated by
exchange gains.
The Group operating profit at R 13571 crore for the
year 2017-18 registered a healthy growth of 22% y-o-y.
The EBITDA margins for the year also improved by 120
basis points to 11.3%. The closure of legacy projects in
the Hydrocarbon business, cost optimization measures
in product businesses, monetization of a Realty asset,
the favourable Supreme Court judgement in the Nabha
Power case and the strong growth of IT&TS businesses -
contributed to the improvement in 2017-18, as compared
to the previous year.
Depreciation & Amortization Charge
Depreciation and amortization charge for the year
2017-18 decreased by 19% to R 1929 crore, compared
to R 2370 crore in previous year. The decrease was largely
due to impairment in the asset values in some of the
businesses, in the previous year.
Other Income
Other income at R 1412 crore, which increased by 5%
over R 1344 crore, consists of profit on sale of liquid
investments, interest and dividend income from treasury
investments. The growth was on account of higher
gains from deployment of surplus funds generated
through operations, and through divestment of stake in
subsidiaries.
Finance Cost
The interest expenses for the year 2017-18 at R 1539 crore
was higher by 15% in comparison to R 1339 crore for the
previous year. The increase was attributable to the impact
of interest cost in L&T Hyderabad Metro Rail upon partial
commencement of operations in November 2017, and
cessation of capitalization of interest on Seawoods assets,
on it getting ready for sale. Further, higher proportion of
interest bearing advances in Infrastructure businesses and
increase in LIBOR rates resulted in increasing the average
borrowing cost for the year to 7.3%, as compared to
6.9% in the previous year.
220
Tax Expense
Income Tax charge for FY 2017-18 increased to R 3199
crore compared to R 2007 crore in FY 2016-17 mainly
due to increased profits and higher Effective Tax Rate, on
account of increased disallowances in respect of earlier
years.
Profit after Tax & EPS
Consolidated Profit after Tax (PAT) at R 7370 crore for
the year 2017-18 rose by 22% over the previous year at
R 6041 crore.
Consolidated Earnings per Share (EPS) including
exceptional items for the year 2017-18 at R 52.62 were
higher by 22% over the previous year.
Return on Net Worth
The Net Worth of the shareholders, as on March 31, 2018,
at R 55657 crore, reflects an increase of R 5440 crore, as
compared to the position as on March 31, 2017. Return
on Net Worth (RONW) for the year 2017-18 was higher at
13.9%, driven by increase in net earnings, as compared to
12.8% in the previous year.
Liquidity & Gearing
Cash flow from operations decreased to R 6428 crore as
compared to R 12399 crore in the previous year mainly
due to higher levels of working capital, which partially
negated increase in operating profits. The group earned
constituted 16% of the total order inflows for the
segment.
a significantly higher income from investing activities
- namely dividends, proceeds from sale of treasury
investments and divestment activities - which was used to
repay certain high cost borrowings and meet interest and
dividend.
The Group incurred capital expenditure of R 2015 crore
during the year, mainly on construction activity of L&T
Metro Rail Hyderabad project. There was a net increase of
R 3254 crore in the cash balances as at March 31, 2018 as
compared to the beginning of the year.

Infrastructure Segment
B. SEGMENT WISE PERFORMANCE (GROUP)
1.
The Infrastructure segment won orders worth R 87277
crore, higher by 11% over the previous year, mainly
from domestic public sector and government customers.
Large orders were won by Heavy Civil Infrastructure,
Transportation Infrastructure and Water & Effluent
Treatment. Although, liquidity constraints of customers,
aggravated by demonetization continue to impact growth
momentum in Buildings & Factories, during the year, the
business was successful in winning a few large-value
orders. The relatively new business of Smart World &
Communication registered growth on receipt of smart city
and telecom orders.
Overall Infrastructure business saw reduced opportunities
in the Middle East arising out of fiscal policy measures
in those countries. International order wins of the
Infrastructure segment, mainly in Power Transmission &
Distribution and Transportation Infrastructure businesses,
The Infrastructure segment clocked a gross revenue of
R 59819 crore for the year 2017-18 registering 10.9%
growth over the previous year. Execution of orders in hand
progressed well majorly in Heavy Civil Infrastructure, Water
& Effluent Treatment and Transportation Infrastructure.
Building & Factories and Smart World & Communication
faced some execution impediments by way of fund
allotment / liquidity crunch, customer clearances and
work-front availability. Right-of-way and environment
clearances continue to hamper execution in some of the
projects.
Revenue from international operations constituted 29%
of the total revenues of the segment during the year as
compared to 33% in the previous year, with a reduced
international order book.
The Infrastructure Segment’s operating profit was higher
by 10% on y-o-y basis at R 5902 crore for 2017-18,
though operating margins dropped marginally from 10.2%
to 10% due to certain stressed international projects in
Transportation Infrastructure and Buildings & Factories
businesses.
221
The Funds employed by the segment at R 17511 crore as
at March 31, 2018 increased by 8.7% vis-à-vis March 31,
2017, with increased volumes. Increase in Gross Working
Capital levels due to build-up of project work-in-progress,
not due for invoicing and collection, was partially
compensated by better vendor credit management and
increase in customer advances on new order wins.
2. Power Segment
The Power segment bagged orders worth R 2414 crore
as compared to R 2866 crore in the previous year. The
orders won during the year were majorly export orders.
The domestic sector continues to be plagued with lower
levels of coal-based power plant ordering in the face of
over-capacity in boiler and turbine production as well
as aggressive pricing by competitors. The order inflow
was low, also due to the segment losing one large-value
domestic order and non-participation in another large-
value order due to unfavourable terms.
PAT level. This impacts the operating margin for the Power
business, since the EPC margins reported as segment
margins do not include the performance of joint ventures,
which have a better margin profile.
The funds employed by the segment stood at R 790 crore
as at March 31, 2018 - higher than R 485 crore as on
March 31, 2017 - with release of payments to vendors and
higher carrying value of Investment in Joint Ventures under
the Power Group, consolidated through equity method
under IND AS.
3. Heavy Engineering Segment
The Heavy Engineering segment recorded order inflow of
R 5848 crore for the year ending March 31, 2018 - lower
by 25.6% as compared to the previous year, which had
a large-value Defence order. The current year had a mix
of orders from the Nuclear Power Corporation of India
and some defence sector orders. International orders
constituted a nominal 2.7% of the total international
order inflows.
Power segment revenue declined y-o-y by 10.5% to
R 6208 crore, as jobs under execution moved closer to
completion and new awards were delayed. Revenue from
international projects at R 1468 crore represented 24%
of the total revenue for the segment, largely contributed
by gas-based power plant jobs under execution in
Bangladesh.
Operating margin decreased by 10 basis points to 3.4%
during FY 2017-18, as compared to 3.5% in 2016-17 on
account of change in job mix.
Segment gross revenue of R 4114 crore improved by 19%
compared to the previous year on the back of execution
progress on defence jobs received in the previous year.
Revenue from international operations constituted 22% of
the total revenue for the segment.
The segment recorded a 6.4% increase in the operating
profit for the year at R 655 crore against an operating
profit of R 615 crore in the previous year. The operating

ended March 31, 2018, which is lower as compared to
R 4367 crore in the previous year, as construction activity
in the Hyderabad Metro project nears completion, and is

power plant.
The segment clocked an operating profit of R 270 crore for
the year 2017-18, improving over the R 91 crore earned
in FY 2016-17, as Nabha Power accrued revenues on

II. L&T STANDALONE
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
L&T’s standalone financials capture the performance of
the Infrastructure segment, Power, Heavy Engineering,
Electrical & Automation and the ‘Others’ segment
comprising Metallurgical and Material Handling business,
a part of Realty business, a part of Hydrocarbon business,
part of Shipbuilding business and Construction & Mining
Machinery business.
L&T delivered good performance on all operational
parameters, despite a volatile environment. The domestic
market is set on a growth path with a slew of reforms,
as against the international arena caught in geo-political
225
turmoil. The Infrastructure business segment surpassed
the previous year’s performance, while the Power and
Industrial businesses continued to experience headwinds
to growth.
Considering the returns potential and business
opportunities, the Company has infused additional capital
of R 2000 crore in L&T Finance Holdings Limited. As a
part of business portfolio restructuring, the Company
divested its complete stake in two subsidiaries viz. EWAC
Alloys Limited and L&T Cutting Tools Limited. In a major
development, the company took concrete steps towards its
stated intent to divest the Electrical & Automation business
by signing, subject to regulatory approvals, a definitive
agreement with Schneider Electric.
The key focus area continues to be enhancement of
shareholder value through operating margin improvement
and higher cash flow generation through working capital
reduction and unlocking of capital earnings sub-par
returns.

III. STRATEGY, BUSINESS MODEL AND RESOURCE
ALLOCATION
Strategy Formulation:
The company has embedded business strategy formulation
as part of its long term sustainability plans. Business
strategy is evolved every 5 years through a collaborative
and consultative process that also includes financial
parameters as guideposts for different elements of
strategic plans.
While 5 year business outlook and broad financial goals
are embedded as an overarching strategic plan, shorter
term annual targets are framed before the commencement
of every financial year which, in turn, get folded into a
rolling medium term plan.
The current 5 year strategic plan commenced in 2016-17
and is slated to end on 2020-21 during which time the
group level shareholder value creation measured by Return
on Equity (RoE) is targeted to grow significantly.

IV. RISK MANAGEMENT
L&T has a four-tiered structure for Risk Management. The
top-tier comprises the Audit Committee and a Board-
appointed Apex Risk Management Committee (ARMC)
comprising of Executive Directors. The Audit Committee
of the Board oversees the efficacy of the risk management
processes. Strategic risks and top operational risks and
new initiatives (new geography, new investment etc.) for
respective businesses are discussed in detail in the ARMC
meetings.
The second tier is the Corporate Risk Management
department and the Chief Risk Officer (CRO), who oversee
and facilitate the Risk Management processes enterprise-
wide and lead organization-wide initiatives in the Risk
Management domain.
In the fourth tier, the Project Heads act as risk owners and
manage operational risks.
The Audit Committee, ARMC and the Risk Management
Committees at various levels are informed on the critical
risks affecting the Company for their review and guidance.
Mitigation plans are drawn up and implemented as
appropriate within the overall ERM framework of the
Company.
The Company works predominantly in the project
business and has developed robust project risk
management processes. The key processes of risk
reviews include Pre-bid risk reviews, Execution risk
reviews, Project Close-out risk reviews and Country
Clearance, in case of venturing into a new country
and revisit clearances based on the geopolitical and
economic developments in each of the cleared countries.
Pre-bid reviews are carried out as a pre-requisite for
bidding for any new project based on a bid authorization
matrix. Execution risk reviews of the projects are
held at regular intervals to track project performance,
movement of risks in the project and effectiveness
of mitigation measures. Close-out risk reviews are
held to capture key learnings from the projects and
what went right/wrong analysis, which help in factoring
learnings for future bids and creating a knowledge
repository.
The Company also has a robust Financial Risk
Management set-up which focuses on exposures and risks
emanating from currency and commodity price volatility in
the course of business. The structural stability and strength
of the Company is ensured by careful Assets / Liabilities
planning.
L&T has been conferred the prestigious ‘Best Risk
Management Framework And Systems - Capital Projects
& Infrastructure Award’ at the India Risk Management
Awards event organized by CNBC TV18.
The Company emphasizes on continuous learning and
has initiated several knowledge-based initiatives to
improve risk awareness across the organization. One
such initiative was launching of an e-learning training
program for employees on Enterprise Risk Management
(ERM) to disseminate knowledge and enhance capabilities
on risk management, which will lead to better business
performance. The course is continuously updated with
new case studies relevant to the various business verticals.
230
Periodic training workshops on risk management are held
across the Company.
The Company organises seminars and conclaves on Risk
Management, where eminent speakers on the subject are
invited to share perspectives and to elevate the level of
discussions on the topic within the Company.
The Company has a Knowledge Centre established
to provide inputs to the businesses comprising the
latest economic developments and covering analysis
on competitors, clients, sectoral studies, countries and
geo-political developments. The efforts are on to help
businesses anticipate potential risks in their respective
areas and work out suitable steps to deal with them. This
also highlights opportunities in the sectors / geographies
of interest.
The Company recognizes exceptional contribution in
managing risks by awarding selected project teams in the
annual L&T Risk Management Awards.
The top enterprise-level risks for the Company and the
mitigation measures being implemented are:
Geopolitical Risks: Unexpected political changes in some
of the developed countries, trade barriers and increasing
conflict in the Middle East (The Saudi – Qatar standoff)
are some of the risks that the Company faces. The
Company monitors such geopolitical risks, and develops
appropriate mitigation strategies addressing geographical
concentration, strategic sourcing options, regular
monitoring of international sanctions and other economic
measures.
Slow Recovery of Key Sectors: Growth in sectors such
as Power, Nuclear, and Metals & Minerals continued to
be hampered by a number of constraints such as the
lack of investment, the reduction in power tariffs, the
slow pace of decision-making, the financial distress
of players, the delay in environmental clearances, the
lingering effects of the mining ban, etc. Being a diversified
conglomerate helps mitigate the risk of such slowdown in
some sectors, as we see compensating growth in certain
other sectors. Renewed impetus to Infrastructure sector
by the Government - namely roads, railways, airports &
waterways - provides growth opportunities in the near
future.
Competition: It has been observed that competition
from foreign and domestic players has considerably
increased in the past few years. The Company’s
engineering, procurement, and construction business
derives its competitive strength from its excellence in
executing projects of varying sizes - its reputation for
quality, technology, cost-effectiveness and its project
management expertise. This helps in gaining an edge over
the competition.
Reputation and Brand: The Corporate Governance
and Compliance policy is in place mandating adherence
to the Code of Conduct and Internal Controls. This
is ensured by regular knowledge-sharing across the
organization and appropriate controls.
Other Operational Risks:
Execution Challenges: The Company faces
execution challenges, such as geological surprises,
availability of work front, land acquisition and right-
of-way (ROW), pending approvals and clearances from
Government agencies, working in difficult/harsh weather
conditions, manpower issues, etc. The Company closely
tracks the key risks for each project to effect timely
mitigation.
Partner Risks: Company partners with different
contractors (Joint Venture / consortium projects) across
businesses based on technical requirements/local market
conditions. The partner’s performance and financial
strength are crucial for project success. Learnings from
past projects are incorporated in the inter-se agreement
with the partners and clauses on liability of each partner
are carefully drafted after legal due diligence.
Working Capital Challenges: Project delays and
adverse contractual payment terms sometimes lead to
increased working capital requirements. The Company
has strengthened the process for close monitoring of cash
flows at the project level. The Company ensures regular
follow-up for delay in payments by client, and has ensured
improvement in working capital levels.
Claims management: The Company maintains a strong
documentation and follow up with clients / sub-
contractors / vendors for any claim that is submitted. Legal
teams are consulted periodically to ensure a robust process
of claims management.
Human Resource Challenges:
The Company actively scans the environment for talent
with skill-sets suited to the expanding and changing needs
of the business, though availability of such resources is
limited. The leadership pipeline has been strengthened
and proper processes are implemented for hiring the best
talent. Suitable retention policies are being constantly
worked upon to minimize attrition of key resources.
The Company has institutionalized the risk management
processes to map and monitor the risks across the
businesses and respond effectively to achieve its strategic
231
objectives. The Company has been successful in tapping
the opportunities both in domestic and international
markets. The Company sees risk management as a
business enabler and believes that risk is an integral part of
every business and promotes capability-building across the
organization to anticipate and manage risks effectively.

The Company continues its policy of maintaining a
conservative capital structure which has ensured that
it retains the highest credit rating in a tough economic
environment. Low gearing levels also equip the Company
with the ability to navigate business stresses on one hand
and raise growth capital on the other. This policy also
provides flexibility of fund-raising options for the future,
which is especially important in times of global economic
volatility. Withdrawal of monetary accommodation in
certain countries on the back of strong growth and rising
inflation and the current geo-political positioning have
resulted in elevated financial market volatility during the
last quarter of FY17-18. Despite the challenging domestic
economic environment in FY 17-18, primarily due to
the spill-over effects of demonetisation as well as GST
implementation issues, the Company managed to restrain
the working capital usage, especially at net level. The
Company has been investing capital into subsidiaries as
scheduled, and in some cases to provide for deterioration
in performance caused by the sluggish economic/business
downturn and JV partner challenges, and also to optimise
overall Group interest rate costs. The Company plans to
maintain adequate liquidity on the Balance Sheet to deal
with slow recovery/downturn in economic conditions.
The Company judiciously deploys its periodical surplus
funds in short-term investments in line with the defined
treasury policy. The Company constantly monitors the
liquidity levels, economic and capital market conditions
and maintains access to the lowest cost means of sourcing
liquidity through banking lines, trade finance and capital
markets. The Company further optimized the cost of debt
by using subsidized export financing scheme of RBI and
Commercial Paper issuance as well as re-pricing of some of
its existing long-term liabilities. The Company dynamically
manages interest rate risks through a mix of fund-raising
products, investment products and derivative products
across maturity profiles and currencies within a robust risk
management framework.
Foreign Exchange and Commodity Price Risks
The various businesses of the Company are exposed to
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and commodity
prices. Additionally, it has exposures to foreign currency
denominated financial assets and liabilities. The business-
related financial risks, especially involving commodity
prices, by and large, are managed contractually through
price variation clauses, while the foreign exchange
and residual commodity price risks are managed by an
appropriate choice of treasury products for balancing risks
and at the same time optimising the hedging costs.
The above risk management activity is carried out under
the framework of Financial Risk Management Policy
approved by Audit Committee and noted by the Board.
Financial risks in each business portfolio are measured and
managed centrally within the Company. These risks are
reviewed periodically, quantified and managed within the
acceptable thresholds as laid out in the Risk Management
Policy of the Company.
The financial year 2017-18 was characterised by a
relatively strong USD against developed market currencies
on robust US growth and inflation pick-up. Despite US rate
hike concerns, rising oil prices and GST implementation
concerns, rupee depreciation was contained during the
year. However, synchronized global economic growth
along with demand/supply mismatches led to an increase
in commodity prices. The combination of lower exchange
rate volatility along with robust financial risk management
processes resulted in lower financial cost and reduced the
impact of higher input costs on the Company.
V. INTERNAL CONTROLS
The growing business activities, restructuring of businesses
and challenging external factors call for a constant
review of the efficacy of the Company’s internal control
mechanism. Sound internal control procedures reduce
process variation, leading to more predictable outcomes.
The Company is committed to ensuring an effective
Internal Control environment that will help in preventing
and detecting errors, irregularities and frauds, thus
ensuring security of Company’s assets and efficiency
of operations. The Company has an internal control
mechanism which is commensurate with the size and
complexity of business and aligned with evolving business
needs.
Strong Corporate Governance and the right tone at
the top serves as a strong pillar for excellence. This is
demonstrated through various means including, but not
limited to, the Corporate Policy on Internal Controls,
which provides a structured framework for identification,
rectification, monitoring and reporting of Internal Control
weaknesses in the Company along with responsibilities
and tasks enjoined upon employees in all positions; the
Policy on Code of Conduct for employees and vendors
232
together with the Whistle Blower Policy that extends to
vendors and channel partners, the facility of expression
of genuine concerns about unethical behaviour, improper
practice, any misconduct, any violation of legal or
regulatory requirements, actual or suspected fraud by any
official of the Company without fear of punishment or
unfair treatment; Internal Controls evaluation included
as part of employee’s appraisal; and appraising Senior
Management and the Audit Committee of the Board
periodically on the internal processes of the Company with
respect to Internal Controls, Statutory Compliances and
Assurance.
The Company has well-documented policies, procedures
and authorization guidelines commensurate with the
level of responsibility and standard operating procedures
specific to the respective businesses. The Company has laid
down Internal Financial Controls (IFC) as detailed in the
Companies Act, 2013 and has covered all major processes
commensurate with the size of business operations.
Controls have been established at the entity level and
process levels, and are designed to ensure compliance
with internal control requirements, regulatory compliance
and appropriate recording and reporting of financial
and operational information. Processes and controls laid
down as per IFC are regularly updated for all the changes
occurring internally due to change in business process,
restructuring, IT changes, etc. or any changes in external
scenarios like introduction of new law, new risk, etc. There
is appropriate framework in place to ensure that adequate
internal controls are laid down and operate effectively.
The Internal Control Organisation
The Company has adopted the three-lines-of-defence
model as prescribed by COSO (Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations) to ensure an effective internal controls
mechanism within the Company.
The first line of defence lies with the Business Heads,
process owners and support functions. They own primary
responsibility for design, establishment of internal controls
and its operating effectiveness in their respective areas of
operation. The Internal Controls framework is documented
in the form of Internal Controls Manuals, Standard
Operating Procedures, Accounting Guidelines including
regular management reporting and monitoring thereof.
Policies and procedures are reviewed periodically from
time to time for any changes required, due to change in
business needs as well as improvements in processes to
strengthen the internal control systems. The Authorisation
Matrix for financial transactions are derived based on
Board resolutions which are delegated to individuals based
on business needs within the overall limits of Corporate
Authorisation Guidelines. Financial powers are vested
based on business requirements and there is no automatic
vesting of powers based on designation / grade of an
individual.
The second line of defence lies with Corporate Internal
Control (CIC) department. They facilitate and monitor the
efficacy of the Internal Controls embedded in Operations
so as to assist the management in establishing strong
internal controls. The Internal Control Department at the
Corporate level formulates procedures and guidelines
for any areas of weaknesses that are identified during
internal audit or as triggered by process owners or
management based on internal or external risk factors.
Apart from the internal mechanism to review and monitor
internal controls; the Company also periodically engages
independent professional firms to carry out review of
the effectiveness of various Key Control processes in
businesses and support functions. Their observations
and suggestions on good practices are reviewed by the
management for implementation and strengthening of the
controls.
The third line of defence lies with Corporate Audit
Services (CAS). They give assurance on Internal Controls
effectiveness by carrying out independent internal audits.
CAS is staffed adequately with qualified professionals
in both technical and financial fields. The department
conducts audit of all units of L&T and its major S&A
companies at regular intervals. Based on observations of
Internal Audit department, respective process owners carry
out necessary process / system improvements, and thereby
strengthen overall control mechanism. The process of
Internal Audit is reviewed by the Management and Audit
Committee of the Board.
VI. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
L&T has pioneered the use of Information Technology
for its business since the IT revolution started. As one of
the early adopters, L&T implemented ERP systems for its
businesses successfully in the late nineties, and since then,
many other complementary systems around ERPs covering
the entire set of business processes. For speed and agility,
L&T has followed a federated approach to IT, wherein
every business had its own IT setup consisting of core ERP,
associated systems, IT Infrastructure and staff.
New Digital Technologies (AI, ML, RPA & Analytics etc.)
have been making dramatic transformations to many
businesses. They have also given rise to new business
models. L&T has also embarked on a digital transformation
journey and are being designed and implemented across
various businesses.
233
The implementation of these digital solutions has
the potential to transform the way we operate,
resulting in significant benefits to increase our
competitiveness and profitability. Implementation of
these solutions requires us to have robust foundational
core IT systems running the businesses. While our
efforts to design and implement the digital solutions
are under way, our core IT systems are also being
upgraded, with the requisite set of functionalities and
technologies on a continuous basis to support these digital
initiatives.
To strengthen the Information Security status and to
prevent any cyber threat to the Company’s business or
information repository, the Company has established a
CISO office. This move is to give focused attention to the
growing threats from the cyber world and to enhance the
Company’s cybersecurity protocols and secure the future
of the organization.

ANNEXURE “A” TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
(Referred to in paragraph 1 (f) under ‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements’ section of our report of even date)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the
Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Larsen & Toubro Limited (the “Company”) as at March 31,
2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements of the Company as for the year ended on that date
which includes internal financial controls over financial reporting of 1 of the 29 joint operations, which is a Company incorporated in
India.
Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Board of Directors of the Company and those charged with governance of the joint operation referred to above, which is a
Company incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal
control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in
the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were
operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to respective Company’s policies,
the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting
records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls over financial reporting of the Company and its
joint operation Company incorporated in India, based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on
Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an
audit of internal financial controls. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was
established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over
financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining
an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing
and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend
on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error.
236
237
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditor of the joint operation
which is a Company incorporated in India, in terms of their reports referred to in the Other Matters paragraph below, is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the
assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being
made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also,
projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that
the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us and based on the consideration of the
report of the other auditor on internal financial controls system over financial reporting of the joint operation referred to in the Other
Matters paragraph below, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial
reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2018, based on the
internal control over financial reporting established by the respective Company considering the essential components of internal control
stated in the Guidance Note.
Other Matters
Our aforesaid report under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls
over financial reporting insofar as it relates to 1 joint operation, which is a Company incorporated in India, is solely based on the report
furnished to us by the other auditor of such Company.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Statement of compliance
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and
the Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind AS”) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and
amendments thereof issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs in exercise of the powers conferred by section 133 of the Companies
Act, 2013. In addition, the guidance notes/announcements issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) are also
applied except where compliance with other statutory promulgations require a different treatment. These financials statements
have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on May 28, 2018.
(b) Basis of accounting
The Company maintains its accounts on accrual basis following historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments
that are measured at fair value in accordance with Ind AS.
Fair value measurements are categorised as below based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are
observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety:
•
•
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company can access at
measurement date;
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included in level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly; and
•
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the valuation of assets or liabilities.
Above levels of fair value hierarchy are applied consistently and generally, there are no transfers between the levels of the fair
value hierarchy unless the circumstances change warranting such transfer.
(c) 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 III
to the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”). The Statement of Cash Flows has been prepared and presented as per the requirements
of Ind AS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”. The disclosure requirements with respect to items in the Balance Sheet and Statement of
Profit and Loss, as prescribed in the Schedule III to the Act, are presented by way of notes forming part of the financial statements
along with the other notes required to be disclosed under the notified Accounting Standards and the SEBI (Listing Obligations and
Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 as amended.
Amounts in the financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees in crore [1 crore = 10 million] rounded off to two decimal
places as permitted by Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Per share data are presented in Indian Rupees to two decimals
places.
(d) 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 realisation of receivables (including retention
monies) within the agreed credit period normally applicable to the respective lines of business.
(e) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised based on nature of activity when consideration can be reasonably measured and recovered with reasonable
certainty. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is reduced for estimated customer
returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
(i)
Revenue from operations
Revenue for the periods upto June 30, 2017 includes excise duty collected from customers. Revenue from July 1, 2017
onwards is exclusive of goods and service tax (GST) which subsumed excise duty. Revenue also includes adjustments
made towards liquidated damages and other variation wherever applicable. Escalation and other claims, which are not
ascertainable/acknowledged by customers are not taken into account.
A.
Sale of goods
Revenue from sale of manufactured and traded goods is recognised when the goods are delivered and titles have been
passed, provided all the following conditions are satisfied:
1.
significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods are transferred to the buyer;
248
249
Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
2.
the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership
nor effective control over the good sold;
3.
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
4.
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company; and
5.
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
B.
Revenue from construction/project related activity and contracts for supply/commissioning of complex plant and
equipment is recognised as follows:
1. Cost plus contracts: Revenue from cost plus contracts is determined with reference to the recoverable costs incurred
during the period plus the margin as agreed with the customer.
2.
Fixed price contracts: Contract revenue is recognised only to the extent of cost incurred till such time the outcome
of the job cannot be ascertained reliably subject to the condition that it is probable such cost will be recoverable.
When the outcome of the contract is ascertained reliably, contract revenue is recognised 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.
The estimated outcome of a contract is considered reliable when all the following conditions are satisfied:
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the contract will flow to the Company;
the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the contract can be measured reliably.
Expected loss, if any, on a contract is recognised as expense in the period in which it is foreseen, irrespective of the stage
of completion of the contract.
For contracts where the aggregate of contract cost incurred to date plus recognised profits (or minus recognised losses
as the case may be) exceeds the progress billing, the surplus is shown as due from customers. For contracts where
progress billing exceeds the aggregate of contract costs incurred to-date plus recognised profits (or minus recognised
losses, as the case may be), the surplus is shown as the amount due to customers. Amounts received before the related
work is performed are disclosed in the Balance Sheet as a liability towards advance received. Amounts billed for work
performed but yet to be paid by the customer are disclosed in the Balance Sheet as trade receivables. The amount of
retention money held by the customers is disclosed as part of other current assets and is reclassified as trade receivables
when it becomes due for payment.
C. Revenue from property development activity which are in substance similar to delivery of goods is recognised 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.
D. Revenue from property development activity in the nature of a construction contract is recognised based on the
‘percentage of completion method’ (POC) when the outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably upon fulfilment
of all the following conditions:
1.
all critical approvals necessary for commencement of the project have been obtained;
2.
contract costs for work performed (excluding cost of land/developmental rights and borrowing cost) constitute at
least 25% of the estimated total contract costs representing a reasonable level of development;
3.
at least 25% of the saleable project area is secured by contracts or agreements with buyers; and
4.
at least 10% of the total revenue as per the agreements of sale or any other legally enforceable documents is
realised at the reporting date in respect of each of the contracts and the parties to such contracts can be reasonably
expected to comply with the contractual payment terms.
250

Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
The costs incurred on property development activities are carried as “Inventories” till such time the outcome of the
project cannot be estimated reliably and all the aforesaid conditions are fulfilled. When the outcome of the project
can be ascertained reliably and all the aforesaid conditions are fulfilled, revenue from property development activity
is recognised at cost incurred plus proportionate margin, using percentage of completion method. Percentage of
completion is determined based on the proportion of actual cost incurred to-date, to the total estimated cost of the
project. For the purpose of computing percentage of construction, cost of land, developmental rights and borrowing
costs are excluded.
Expected loss, if any, on the project is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is foreseen, irrespective of the
stage of completion of the contract.
E.
Rendering of services
Revenue from rendering services is recognised when the outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably by reference
to the stage of completion of the transaction. The outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably when all the
following conditions are satisfied:
1.
2.
3.
4.
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company;
the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
Stage of completion is determined by the proportion of actual costs incurred to-date, to the estimated total costs of the
transaction.
Unbilled revenue represents value of services performed in accordance with the contract terms but not billed.
F.
Revenue from contracts for rendering of engineering design services and other services which are directly related to the
construction of an asset is recognised on the same basis as stated in (B) supra.
G. Commission income is recognised as and when the terms of the contract are fulfilled.
H. Government grants, which are revenue in nature and are towards compensation for the qualifying costs incurred by the
company, are recognised as other operational income in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which such
costs are incurred. Government grant receivable in the form duty credit scrips is recognised as other operational income
in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the application is made to the government authorities and to
the extent there is no uncertainty towards its receipt.
I.
Other operational revenue represents income earned from the activities incidental to the business and is recognised
when the right to receive the income is established as per the terms of the contract.
(ii) Other income
A.
Interest income on investments and loans is accrued on a time basis by reference to the principal outstanding and the
effective interest rate including interest on investments classified as fair value through profit or loss or fair value through
other comprehensive income. Interest receivable on customer dues is recognised as income in the Statement of Profit
and Loss on accrual basis provided there is no uncertainty towards its realisation.
B. Dividend income is accounted in the period in which the right to receive the same is established.
C. Other items of income are accounted as and when the right to receive such income arises and it is probable that the
economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.
(f) Exceptional items
An item of income or expense which by its size, type or incidence requires disclosure in order to improve an understanding of the
performance of the Company is treated as an exceptional item and disclosed as such in the financial statements.

Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
(g) Property, plant and equipment (PPE)
PPE is recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the
cost of the item can be measured reliably. PPE is stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits availed, if any, less accumulated
depreciation and cumulative impairment, if any. PPE acquired on hire purchase basis are recognised at their cash values. Cost
includes professional fees related to the acquisition of PPE and for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with
the Company’s accounting policy.
Own manufactured PPE is capitalised at cost including an appropriate share of overheads. Administrative and other general
overhead expenses that are specifically attributable to construction or acquisition of PPE or bringing the PPE to working condition
are allocated and capitalised as a part of the cost of the PPE.
PPE not ready for the intended use on the date of the Balance Sheet are disclosed as “capital work-in-progress”. (Also refer to
policy on leases, borrowing costs, impairment of assets and foreign currency transactions infra).
Depreciation is recognised using straight line method so as to write off the cost of the assets (other than freehold land and
properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful lives specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act,
2013, or in the case of assets where the useful life was determined by technical evaluation, over the useful life so determined.
Depreciation method is reviewed at each financial year end to reflect the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic
benefits embodied in the asset. The estimated useful life and residual values are also reviewed at each financial year end and the
effect of any change in the estimates of useful life/residual value is accounted on prospective basis.
Where cost of a part of the asset (“asset component”) is significant to total cost of the asset and useful life of that part is different
from the useful life of the remaining asset, useful life of that significant part is determined separately and such asset component is
depreciated over its separate useful life.
Depreciation on additions to/deductions from, owned assets is calculated pro rata to the period of use. Extra shift depreciation is
provided on a location basis.
Depreciation charge for impaired assets is adjusted in future periods in such a manner that the revised carrying amount of the
asset is allocated over its remaining useful life.
Assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated on a straight line basis over the lease term. Where there is reasonable
certainty that the Company shall obtain ownership of the assets at the end of the lease term, such assets are depreciated based on
the useful life adopted by the Company for similar assets.
Freehold land is not depreciated.
(h)
Investment property
Properties, including those under construction, held to earn rentals and/or capital appreciation are classified as investment property
and are measured and reported at cost, including transaction costs.
Depreciation is recognised using straight line method so as to write off the cost of the investment property less their residual
values over their useful lives specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 or in the case of assets where the useful life was
determined by technical evaluation, over the useful life so determined. Depreciation method is reviewed at each financial year end
to reflect the expected pattern of consumption of the future benefits embodied in the investment property. The estimated useful
life and residual values are also reviewed at each financial year end and the effect of any change in the estimates of useful life/
residual value is accounted on prospective basis. Freehold land and properties under construction are not depreciated.
An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and
no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of property is recognised in
the Statement of Profit and Loss in the same period.
(i)
Intangible assets
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 stated at original cost net of tax/duty
credits availed, if any, less accumulated amortisation and cumulative impairment. 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.
252

NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
Research and development expenditure on new products:
(i)
Expenditure on research is expensed under respective heads of account in the period in which it is incurred.
(ii) Development expenditure on new products is capitalised as intangible asset, if all of the following can be demonstrated:
A.
the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
B.
the company has intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
C.
the company has ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
D.
E.
the manner in which the probable future economic benefits will be generated including the existence of a market for
output of the intangible asset or intangible asset itself or if it is to be used internally, the usefulness of intangible assets;
the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the
intangible asset; and
F.
the company has ability to reliably measure the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
Development expenditure that does not meet the above criteria is expensed in the period in which it is incurred.
Intangible assets not ready for the intended use on the date of the Balance Sheet are disclosed as “intangible assets under
development”.
Intangible assets are amortised on straight line basis over the estimated useful life. The method of amortisation and useful
life are reviewed at the end of each accounting year with the effect of any changes in the estimate being accounted for on a
prospective basis.
Amortisation on impaired assets is provided by adjusting the amortisation charge in the remaining periods so as to allocate
the asset’s revised carrying amount over its remaining useful life.
(j)
Impairment of assets
As at the end of each accounting year, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its PPE, investment property, intangible
assets and investments in subsidiary, associate and joint venture companies to determine whether there is any indication that those
assets have suffered an impairment loss. If such indication exists, PPE, investment property and intangible assets are tested for
impairment so as to determine the impairment loss, if any. Intangible assets with indefinite life are tested for impairment each year.
Impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is
determined:
(i)
in the case of an individual asset, at the higher of the net selling price and the value in use; and
(ii)
in the case of a cash generating unit (the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates independent cash flows), at the
higher of the cash generating unit’s net selling price and the value in use.
(The amount of 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. For this purpose, the discount rate (pre-tax) is determined based on the weighted
average cost of capital of the company suitably adjusted for risks specified to the estimated cash flows of the asset).
If recoverable amount of an asset (or cash generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, such deficit is
recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as impairment loss and the carrying amount of the asset (or cash
generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating unit) is increased to the
revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined had no impairment loss is recognised for the asset (or cash generating unit) in prior years. A reversal
of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(k) Employee Benefits
(i)
Short term employee benefits:
Employee benefits such as salaries, wages, short term compensated absences, expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia and
performance-linked rewards falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term
employee benefits and are expensed in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
(ii) Post-employment benefits:
A. Defined contribution plans: The Company’s superannuation scheme, state governed provident fund scheme, employee
state insurance scheme and employee pension scheme are defined contribution plans. The contribution paid/payable
under the schemes is recognised during the period in which the employee renders the related service.
B. Defined benefit plans: The employees’ gratuity fund schemes and employee provident fund schemes managed by board
of trustees established by the Company, the post-retirement medical care plan and the Company pension plan represent
defined benefit plans. The present value of the obligation under defined benefit plans is determined based on actuarial
valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method.
The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows using a discount rate based on the market
yield on government securities of a maturity period equivalent to the weighted average maturity profile of the defined benefit
obligations at the Balance Sheet date.
Re-measurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest
on the net defined benefit liability or asset) and any change in the effect of asset ceiling (if applicable) is recognised in other
comprehensive income and is reflected in retained earnings and the same is not eligible to be reclassified to profit or loss.
Defined benefit costs comprising current service cost, past service cost and gains or losses on settlements are recognised
in the Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefits expense. Interest cost implicit in defined benefit employee cost is
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss under finance cost. Gains or losses on settlement of any defined benefit plan
are recognised when the settlement occurs. Past service cost is recognised as expense at the earlier of the plan amendment or
curtailment and when the company recognises related restructuring costs or termination benefits.
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.
(iii) Long term employee benefits:
The obligation recognised in respect of long term benefits such as compensated absences, long service award etc. is
measured at present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be made by the Company and is recognised in a similar
manner as in the case of defined benefit plans vide (ii)(B) supra.
Long term employee benefit costs comprising current service cost and gains or losses on curtailments and settlements,
re-measurements including actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefit
expenses. Interest cost implicit in long term employee benefit cost is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss under
finance cost.
(iv) Termination benefits:
Termination benefits such as compensation under employee separation schemes are recognised as expense when the
Company’s offer of the termination benefit is accepted or when the Company recognises the related restructuring costs
whichever is earlier.
(l) Leases
The determination of whether an agreement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the agreement at the date of
inception.
(i)
Finance leases:
A.
Leases where the Company has substantially transferred all the risks and rewards of ownership of the related assets
to the lessee are classified as finance leases. Assets taken under finance lease are capitalised at the commencement
of the lease at the lower of the fair value or the present value of minimum lease payments and a liability is created for
254
255
Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
an equivalent amount. Each lease rental paid is allocated between the liability and the interest cost, so as to obtain a
constant periodic rate of interest on the outstanding liability for each period.
B. Assets given under a finance lease are recognised as a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease.
Lease income is recognised over the period of the lease so as to yield a constant rate of return on the net investment in
the lease.
(ii) Operating leases:
The leases which are not classified as finance lease are operating leases.
A.
Lease rentals on assets under operating lease are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis
over the term of the relevant lease.
B. Assets leased out under operating leases are continued to be shown under the respective class of assets. Rental income
is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
(Also refer to policy on depreciation, supra)
(m) Financial instruments
Financial assets and/or financial liabilities are recognised when the company becomes party to a contract embodying the
related financial instruments. All financial assets, financial liabilities and financial guarantee contracts are initially measured at
transaction values and where such values are different from the fair value, at fair value. Transaction costs that are attributable to
the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from as the case may be, the fair value of such financial assets or liabilities, on
initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss are recognised immediately in Profit or Loss.
In case of funding to subsidiary companies in the form of interest free or concession loans and preference shares, the excess of the
actual amount of the funding over initially measured fair value is accounted as an equity investment.
A financial asset and a financial liability is offset and presented on net basis in the balance sheet when there is a current legally
enforceable right to set-off the recognised amounts and it is intended to either settle on net basis or to realise the asset and settle
the liability simultaneously.
(i)
Financial assets:
A. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety either at amortised cost or at fair value
depending on the classification of the financial assets as follows:
1.
Investments in debt instruments that are designated as fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) - at fair value.
2.
Investments in debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at - at amortised
cost (unless the same designated as fair value through profit or loss):
•
•
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash
flows; and
The contractual terms of instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
3.
Investment in debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at fair value through
other comprehensive income [FVTOCI] (unless the same are designated as fair value through profit or loss)
•
•
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows
and selling financial assets; and
The contractual terms of instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
254
255
Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
4. Debt instruments at FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments, if any, and all changes are recognised in
profit or loss.
5.
6.
7.
Investment in equity instruments issued by subsidiary, associate and joint venture companies are measured at cost
less impairment.
Investment in preference shares of the subsidiary companies are treated as equity instruments if the same are
convertible into equity shares or are redeemable out of the proceeds of equity instruments issued for the purpose
of redemption of such investments. Investment in preference shares not meeting the aforesaid conditions are
classified as debt instruments at FVTPL.
Investments in equity instruments are classified as at FVTPL, unless the related instruments are not held for trading
and the Company irrevocably elects on initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value in Other
Comprehensive Income.
B.
For financial assets that are measured at FVTOCI, income by way of interest and dividend, provision for impairment
and exchange difference, if any, (on debt instrument) are recognised in profit or loss and changes in fair value (other
than on account of above income or expense) are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other
equity. On disposal of debt instruments at FVTOCI, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in other equity
is reclassified to profit or loss. In case of equity instruments at FVTOCI, such cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to
profit or loss on disposal of investments.
C. A financial asset is primarily derecognised when:
1.
the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired, or
2.
the company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay
the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a pass-through arrangement; and (a)
the company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the company has neither
transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount measured at the date of
derecognition and the consideration received is recognised in Profit or Loss.
D.
Impairment of financial assets: The company recognises impairment loss on trade receivables using expected credit loss
model, which involves use of a provision matrix constructed on the basis of historical credit loss experience as permitted
under Ind AS 109. Impairment loss on investments is recognised when the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable
amount.
(ii)
Financial liabilities:
A.
Financial liabilities, including derivatives and embedded derivatives, which are designated for measurement at FVTPL
are subsequently measured at fair value. Financial guarantee contracts are subsequently measured at the amount of
impairment loss allowance or the amount recognised at inception net of cumulative amortisation, whichever is higher.
All other financial liabilities including loans and borrowings are measured at amortised cost using Effective Interest Rate
(EIR) method.
B. A financial liability is derecognised when the related obligation expires or is discharged or cancelled.
(iii) The Company designates certain hedging instruments, such as derivatives, embedded derivatives and in respect of foreign
currency risk, certain non-derivatives, as either fair value hedges, cash flow hedges or hedges of net investments in foreign
operations. Hedges of foreign exchange risk on firm commitments are accounted as cash flow hedges.
A.
Fair value hedges: Changes in fair value of the designated portion of derivatives that qualify as fair value hedges are
recognised in Profit or Loss immediately, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that
are attributable to the hedged risk.
256
257
Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it
no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. The fair value adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item arising
from the hedged risk is amortised to Profit or Loss from that date.
B. Cash flow hedges: In case of transaction related hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives
that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated
in equity as ‘hedging reserve’. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in Profit or
Loss. Amounts previously recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated in equity relating to the effective
portion, are reclassified to Profit or Loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss, in the same head as
the hedged item. The effective portion of the hedge is determined at the lower of the cumulative gain or loss on the
hedging instrument from inception of the hedge and the cumulative change in the fair value of the hedged item from
the inception of the hedge and the remaining gain or loss on the hedging instrument is treated as ineffective portion.
In case of time period related hedges, the forward element and the spot element of a forward contract is separated
and only the change in the value of the spot element of the forward contract is designated as the hedging instrument.
Similarly, wherever applicable, the foreign currency basis spread is separated from the financial instrument and is
excluded from the designation of that financial instrument as the hedging instrument in case of time period related
hedges. The changes in the fair value of the forward element of the forward contract or the foreign currency basis
spread of the financial instrument is accumulated in a separate component of equity as ‘cost of hedging reserve’. The
changes in the fair value of such forward element or foreign currency basis spread are reclassified to Profit or Loss as a
reclassification adjustment on a straight line basis over the period of the forward contract or the financial instrument.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it
no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated
in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in Profit
or Loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognised
immediately in Profit or Loss.
(iv) Compound financial instruments issued by the Company which can be converted into fixed number of equity shares at the
option of the holders irrespective of changes in the fair value of the instrument are accounted by separately recognising the
liability and the equity components. The liability component is initially recognised at the fair value of a comparable liability
that does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is initially recognised at the difference between
the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. The directly
attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and the equity components in proportion to their initial carrying
amounts. Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of the compound financial instrument is measured
at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not
remeasured subsequently.
(n)
Inventories
Inventories are valued after providing for obsolescence, as under:
(i)
Raw materials, components, construction materials, stores, spares and loose tools at lower of weighted average cost or net
realisable value. However, these items are considered to be realisable at cost if the finished products in which they will be
used, are expected to be sold at or above cost.
(ii) Manufacturing work-in-progress at lower of weighted average cost including related overheads or net realisable value. In
some cases, manufacturing work-in-progress are valued at lower of specifically identifiable cost or net realisable value. In the
case of qualifying assets, cost also includes applicable borrowing costs vide policy relating to borrowing costs.
(iii) Finished goods and stock-in-trade (in respect of goods acquired for trading) at lower of weighted average cost or net
realisable value. Cost includes related overheads and excise duty paid/payable on such goods.
(iv) Completed property/work-in-progress (including land) in respect of property development activity at lower of specifically
identifiable cost or net realisable value.
256
257
Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
Assessment of net realisable value is made at each reporting period end and when the circumstances that previously caused
inventories to be written-down below cost no longer exist or when there is clear evidence of an increase in net realisable value
because of changed economic circumstances, the write-down, if any, in the past period is reversed to the extent of the original
amount written-down so that the resultant carrying amount is the lower of the cost and the revised net realisable value.
(o) Cash and bank balances
Cash and bank balances also include fixed deposits, margin money deposits, earmarked balances with banks and other bank
balances which have restrictions on repatriation. Short term and liquid investments being subject to more than insignificant risk of
change in value, are not included as part of cash and cash equivalents.
(p) Securities premium account
(i)
Securities premium includes:
A.
The difference between the face value of the equity shares and the consideration received in respect of shares issued.
B.
The fair value of the stock options which are treated as expense, if any, in respect of shares allotted pursuant to Stock
Options Scheme.
(ii) The issue expenses of securities which qualify as equity instruments are written off against securities premium account.
(q) Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs include interest expense calculated using the effective interest method, finance charges in respect of assets
acquired on finance lease and exchange differences arising on foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an
adjustment to interest costs.
Borrowing costs net of any investment income from the temporary investment of related borrowings that are attributable to the
acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised/inventoried 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 in Profit or Loss in the period in which they are
incurred.
(r) Share-based payment arrangements
The stock options granted to employees pursuant to the Company’s Stock Options Schemes, are measured at the fair value of the
options at the grant date. The fair value of the options is treated as discount and accounted as employee compensation cost over
the vesting period on a straight line basis. The amount recognised as expense in each year is arrived at based on the number of
grants expected to vest. If a grant lapses after the vesting period, the cumulative discount recognised as expense in respect of such
grant is transferred to the general reserve within equity.
The fair value of the stock options granted to employees of the Company by the Company’s subsidiaries is accounted as employee
compensation cost over the vesting period and where such fair value is not recovered by the subsidiaries, the same is treated as
dividend declared by them.
(s) Foreign currencies
(i)
The functional currency and presentation currency of the company is Indian Rupee.
(ii) Transactions in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency are recorded on initial recognition using the
exchange rate at the transaction date. At each Balance Sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are reported at the
closing spot rate. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences that arise on settlement of monetary items or on reporting of monetary items at each Balance Sheet
date at the closing spot rate are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they arise except for:
A.
exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings relating to assets under construction for future productive use,
which are included in the cost of those assets when they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on those
foreign currency borrowings; and
B.
exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks.
258
259
Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
(iii) Financial statements of foreign operations whose functional currency is different than Indian Rupees are translated into Indian
Rupees as follows:
A.
assets and liabilities for each Balance Sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that Balance Sheet;
B.
income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates; and
C.
all resulting exchange differences are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated in equity as ‘foreign
currency translation reserve’ for subsequent reclassification to Profit or Loss on disposal of such foreign operations.
(t) Accounting and reporting of information for Operating Segments
Operating segments are those components of the business whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating
decision making body in the Company to make decisions for performance assessment and resource allocation.
The reporting of segment information is the same as provided to the management for the purpose of the performance assessment
and resource allocation to the segments.
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)
Segment revenue includes sales and other operational revenue directly identifiable with/allocable to the segment including
inter segment revenue.
ii)
Expenses that are directly identifiable with/allocable to segments are considered for determining the segment result.
iii) Most of the centrally incurred costs are allocated to segments mainly on the basis of their respective expected segment
revenue estimated at the beginning of the reported period.
iv)
v)
Income which relates to the Company as a whole and not allocable to segments is included in “unallocable corporate income/
(expenditure)(net)”.
Segment result includes margins on inter-segment capital jobs, which are reduced in arriving at the profit before tax of the
Company.
vi) Segment result includes the interest expense incurred on interest bearing advances with corresponding credit included in
“unallocable corporate income/(expenditure)(net).
vii) Segment results have not been adjusted for the exceptional item attributable to the corresponding segment. The said
exceptional item has been included in “unallocable corporate income/(expenditure)(net)”. The corresponding segment assets
have been carried under the respective segments without adjusting the exceptional item.
viii) 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.
ix) Segment non-cash expenses forming part of segment expenses includes the fair value of the employee stock options which is
accounted as employee compensation cost [Note 1(r) supra] and is allocated to the segment.
x)
Segment revenue resulting from transactions with other business segments is accounted on the basis of transfer price which
are either determined to yield a desired margin or agreed on a negotiated basis.
(u) 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 temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Company’s
financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in computation of taxable profit and quantified using the tax rates and
laws enacted or substantively enacted as on the Balance Sheet date.
258
259
Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences including the temporary differences associated
with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the company is able to control the
reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences to the extent that is probable that taxable profits
will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is
reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits
will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets relating to unabsorbed depreciation/business losses/losses under the head “capital gains” are recognised and
carried forward to the extent of available taxable temporary differences or where there is convincing other evidence that sufficient
future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which
the Company expects, at the end of reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Transaction or event which is recognised outside Profit or Loss, either in Other Comprehensive Income or in equity, is recorded
along with the tax as applicable.
(v)
Interests in joint operations
The Company as a joint operator recognises in relation to its interest in a joint operation, its share in the assets/liabilities held/
incurred jointly with the other parties of the joint arrangement. Revenue is recognised for its share of revenue from the sale of
output by the joint operation. Expenses are recognised for its share of expenses incurred jointly with other parties as part of the
joint arrangement.
Interests in joint operations are included in the segments to which they relate.
(w) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions are recognised only when:
(i)
the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event;
(ii)
it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and
(iii) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation and when the effect of time value of money
is material, the carrying amount of the provision is the present value of those cash flows. 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:
(i)
a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle
the obligation; and
(ii) a present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible. Contingent assets are disclosed where an
inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
Where the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received
under such contract, the present obligation under the contract is recognised and measured as a provision.
(x) Commitments
Commitments are future liabilities for contractual expenditure, classified and disclosed as follows:
(i)
estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for;
(ii) uncalled liability on shares and other investments partly paid;
(iii)
funding related commitment to subsidiary, associate and joint venture companies; and
260
261
Notes forming part of the Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies (contd.)
(iv) 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.
(y) Non-current assets held for sale
Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is intended to be recovered principally
through a sale (rather than through continuing use) when the asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present
condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sale of such asset (or disposal group) and the sale is highly
probable and is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification.
Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at lower of their carrying amount and fair value less
costs to sell.
(z) Statement of Cash Flows
Statement of Cash Flows is prepared segregating the cash flows into operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flow from
operating activities is reported using indirect method, adjusting the profit before tax excluding exceptional items for the effects of:
(i)
changes during the period in inventories and operating receivables and payables transactions of a non-cash nature;
(ii) non-cash items such as depreciation, provisions, unrealised foreign currency gains and losses; and
(iii) all other items for which the cash effects are investing or financing cash flows.
Cash and cash equivalents (including bank balances) shown in the Statement of Cash Flows exclude items which are not available
for general use as at the date of Balance Sheet.
(aa) Key sources of estimation
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS 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. The estimates and
underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates include useful lives of property, plant
and equipment & iintangible assets, allowance for doubtful debts/advances, future obligations in respect of retirement benefit
plans, expected cost of completion of contracts, provision for rectification costs, fair value measurement etc. Difference, if any,
between the actual results and estimates is recognised in the period in which the results are known.
(ab) Business Combination
Common control business combination where the Company is transferee is accounted using the pooling of interest method. Assets
and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts and no new asset or liability is recognised. Identity
of reserves of the transferor company is preserved by reflecting them in the same form in the Company’s financial statements in
which they appeared in the financial statement of the transferor company. The excess between the amount of consideration paid
over the share capital of the transferor company is recognised as a negative amount and the same is disclosed as capital reserve on
business combination.
The information in the financial statements of the prior period is restated from the date of business combination in case the
business combination is approved by statutory authority in the subsequent period.

(i) Capital management:
The Company continues its policy of a conservative capital structure which has ensured that it retains the highest credit rating
even amidst an adverse economic environment. Low gearing levels also equip the Company with the ability to navigate business
stresses on one hand and raise growth capital on the other. This policy also provides flexibility of fund raising options for future,
which is especially important in times of global economic volatility. The gross debt equity ratio is 0.21:1 as at March 31, 2018
(as at March 31, 2017 0.23:1).
(j) During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company paid the final dividend of R 14 per equity share for the year ended

(k) On May 28, 2018, the Board of Directors has recommended the final dividend of R 16 per equity share for the year ended
March 31, 2018 subject to approval from shareholders. On approval, the total dividend payment based on number of shares
outstanding as at March 31, 2018 is expected to be R 2242.19 crore and the payment of dividend distribution tax is expected
to be R 357.60 crore.

The Company regularly reviews its foreign exchange forward and option positions and interest rate swaps, both on a standalone
basis and in conjunction with its underlying foreign currency and interest rate related exposures. The Company follows cash flow
hedge accounting for Highly Probable Forecasted Exposures (HPFE) hence the movement in mark to market (MTM) of the hedge
contracts undertaken for such exposures is likely to be offset by contra movements in the underlying exposures values. However,
till the point of time that the HPFE becomes an on-Balance Sheet exposure, the changes in MTM of the hedge contracts will impact
the Balance Sheet of the Company. Further, given the effective horizons of the Company’s risk management activities which
coincide with the durations of the projects under execution and could extend across 3-4 years and the business uncertainties
associated with the timing and estimation of the project exposures, the recognition of the gains and losses related to these
instruments may not always coincide with the timing of gains and losses related to the underlying economic exposures and,
therefore, may affect the Company’s financial condition and operating results. Hence, the Company monitors the potential risk
arising out of the market factors like exchange rates, interest rates, price of traded investment products etc., on a regular basis. For
on-Balance Sheet exposures, the Company monitors the risks on net unhedged exposures.

NOTE [44] (contd.)
(i)
Foreign exchange rate risk:
In general, the Company is a net receiver of foreign currency. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates and in particular a
strengthening of the Indian Rupee may negatively affect the Company’s net sales and gross margins as expressed in Indian
Rupees. There is a risk that the Company will have to adjust local currency product pricing due to competitive pressures when
there have been significant volatility in foreign currency exchange rates.
The Company may enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts with financial institutions to protect against
foreign exchange risks associated with certain existing assets and liabilities, certain firmly committed transactions, forecasted
future cash flows and net investments in foreign subsidiaries. In addition, the Company has entered and may enter in future,
into non-designated foreign currency contracts to partially offset the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on its
foreign-denominated debt issuances. The Company’s practice is to hedge a portion of its material foreign exchange exposures
with tenors in line with the project/business life cycle, however, the Company may choose not to hedge certain foreign
exchange exposures for a variety of reasons.
The net exposure to foreign currency risk (based on notional amount) in respect of recognised financial assets, recognised
financial liabilities and derivatives is as follows:

To provide a meaningful assessment of the foreign currency risk associated with the Company’s foreign currency derivative
positions against off Balance Sheet exposures and unhedged portion of on-Balance Sheet financial assets and liabilities,
the Company uses a multi-currency correlated value-at-risk (“VAR”) model. The VAR model uses a Monte Carlo simulation
to generate thousands of random market price paths for foreign currencies against Indian rupee taking into account the
correlations between them. The VAR is the expected loss in value of the exposures due to overnight movement in spot
exchange rates, at 95% confidence interval. The VAR model is not intended to represent actual losses but is used as a risk
estimation tool. The model assumes normal market conditions and is a historical best fit model. Because the Company uses
foreign currency instruments for hedging purposes, the loss in fair value incurred on those instruments are generally offset by
increases in the fair value of the underlying exposures for on-Balance Sheet exposures. The overnight VAR for the Company at
95% confidence level is R 39.80 crore as at March 31, 2018 and R 59.80 crore as at March 31, 2017.
Actual future gains and losses associated with the Company’s investment portfolio and derivative positions may differ
materially from the sensitivity analysis performed as at March 31, 2018 due to the inherent limitations associated with
predicting the timing and amount of changes in foreign currency exchanges rates and the Company’s actual exposures and
position.
(ii)
Interest rate risk:
The Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s outstanding floating rate debt. While
most of the Company’s outstanding debt in local currency is on fixed rate basis and hence not subject to interest rate risk.
A major portion of foreign currency debt is linked to international interest rate benchmarks like LIBOR. The Company also
hedges a portion of these risks by way of derivatives instruments like Interest rate swaps and currency swaps.
The exposure of the Company’s borrowing to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period are as follows:

The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and by having access to funding
through an adequate amount of committed credit lines. Given the need to fund diverse businesses, the Company maintains
flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines to meet obligations when due. Management regularly
monitors the position of cash and cash equivalents vis-à-vis projections. Assessment of maturity profiles of financial assets and
financial liabilities including debt financing plans and maintenance of Balance Sheet liquidity ratios are considered while reviewing
the liquidity position.
The Company’s investment policy and strategy are focused on preservation of capital and supporting the Company’s liquidity
requirements. The Company uses a combination of internal and external management to execute its investment strategy and
achieve its investment objectives. The Company typically invests in money market funds, large debt funds, government of india
securities, equity funds and other highly rated securities under a limits framework which governs the credit exposure to any one
issuer as defined in its investment policy. The policy requires investments generally to be investment grade, with the primary
objective of minimising the potential risk of principal loss. To provide a meaningful assessment of the price risk associated with the
Company’s investment portfolio, the Company performed a sensitivity analysis to determine the impact of change in prices of the
securities that would have on the value of the investment portfolio assuming a 0.5% move in debt funds and debt securities and
a 5% movement in the NAV of the equity funds. Based on the investment position a hypothetical 0.5% change in the fair market
value of debt securities would result in a value change of +/- R 14.04 crore as at March 31, 2018 and +/- R 15.98 crore as at March
31, 2017. 5% change in the equity funds NAV would result in a value change of +/- R 16.24 crore as at March 31, 2018 and
+/- R 17.83 crore as at March 31, 2017. The investments in money market funds are for the purpose of liquidity management only
and are held only overnight and hence not subject to any material price risk.
(c) Credit Risk Management:
The Company’s customer profile include public sector enterprises, state owned companies and large private corporates.
Accordingly, the Company’s customer credit risk is low. The Company’s average project execution cycle is around 24 to 36 months.
General payment terms include mobilisation advance, monthly progress payments with a credit period ranging from 45 to 90 days
and certain retention money to be released at the end of the project. In some cases retentions are substituted with bank/corporate
guarantees. The Company has a detailed review mechanism of overdue customer receivables at various levels within organisation
to ensure proper attention and focus for realisation.

* Basis used to determine interest income on plan assets:
The Trust formed by the Company manages the investments of provident funds and gratuity fund. Interest income on plan
assets is determined by multiplying the fair value of the plan assets by the discount rate stated in (g)(i) below both determined
at the start of the annual reporting period.
The Company expects to fund R 45.05 crore (previous year: R 6.18 crore) towards its gratuity plan and R 67.68 crore (previous
year: R 73.21 crore) towards its trust-managed provident fund plan during the year 2018-19.

NOTE [50]
Disclosure pursuant to Ind AS 19 “Employee Benefits” (contd.)
h) Characteristics of defined benefit plans and associated risks:
1. Gratuity plan:
The Company operates gratuity plan through a trust wherein every employee is entitled to the benefit equivalent
to fifteen days last salary 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 favorable as compared to the obligation under Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The defined benefit plan for
gratuity of the Company is administered by separate gratuity funds that are legally separate from the Company. The
trustees nominated by the Company are responsible for the administration of the plan. There are no minimum funding
requirements of these plans. The funding of these plans are based on gratuity fund’s actuarial measurement framework
set out in the funding policies of the plan. These actuarial measurements are similar compared to the assumptions set
out in (g) supra. Employees do not contribute to any of these plans.
Unfunded gratuity represents a small part of gratuity plan which is not material. Further, it includes amounts payable in
respect of the Company’s foreign operations which result in gratuity payable to employees engaged as per the local laws
of country of operation.
2.
Post-retirement medical care 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. The plan is unfunded. Employees do not contribute to the plan.
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. The plan is unfunded. Employees do not contribute to the plan.
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 Employees’ Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. The plan mandates contribution by employer
at a fixed percentage of employee’s salary. Employees also contribute to the plan at a fixed percentage of their salary
as a minimum contribution and additional sums at their discretion. The plan guarantees interest at the rate notified by
Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation. 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
recognised 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 recognised as expense or income in the period in which such loss/
gain occurs.
All the above defined benefit plans expose the Company to general actuarial risks such as interest rate risk and market
(investment) risk.

A.
Ind AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

followed as per the Guidance note issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. The management is in the process of
implementing Ind AS 115 and does not expect any material impact on the Company’s financial position as at March 31, 2018 and

TO THE MEMBERS OF
LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED
Report on the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated Ind AS financial statements of LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED (hereinafter referred to as

of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its joint operations, associates and joint ventures are responsible for the
maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Group,
and of its joint operations, associates and joint ventures for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; the selection and

ANNEXURE “A” TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
(Referred to in paragraph “f” under ‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements’ section of our report of even date)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the
Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)
In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated Ind AS financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended March 31,
2018, we have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of LARSEN & TOUBRO LIMITED (hereinafter referred
to as “Parent”) and its subsidiary companies (hereinafter referred to as the “Group”), which includes internal financial controls over
financial reporting of its joint operations, its joint ventures and its associate companies, which are companies incorporated in India, as
of that date.
Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The respective Board of Directors of the Parent, its subsidiary companies, its joint operations, its joint ventures and its associate
companies, which are companies incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based
on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the respective Companies considering the essential components
of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”)
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and
maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of
its business, including adherence to the respective company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of
frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information,
as required under the Companies Act, 2013.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the internal financial controls over financial reporting of the Parent, its subsidiary
companies, its joint operations, its joint ventures and its associate companies, which are companies incorporated in India, based on our
audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note issued by ICAI and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under
Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. Those Standards and the
Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated
effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over
financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining
an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing
and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend
on the auditors’ judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by other auditors of the subsidiary companies,
joint operations, joint ventures and associate companies, which are companies incorporated in India, in terms of their reports referred
to in the Other Matters paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the internal financial
controls system over financial reporting of the Parent, its subsidiary companies, its joint operations, its joint ventures and its associate
companies, which are companies incorporated in India.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the
assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being
made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also,
projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that
350
the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us and based on the consideration of the
reports of other auditors referred to in the Other Matters paragraph below, the Parent, its subsidiary companies, its joint operations,
its joint ventures and its associate companies, which are companies incorporated in India, have, in all material respects, an adequate
internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating
effectively as at March 31, 2018, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the respective companies
considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note.
Other Matters
Our aforesaid report under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls
over financial reporting in so far as it relates to 35 subsidiary companies, 1 joint operation, 12 joint venture companies and 2 associate
companies, which are companies incorporated in India, is based solely on the corresponding reports of the auditors of such companies
incorporated in India.
Our aforesaid report under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls
over financial reporting in so far as it relates to 5 subsidiary companies, and 2 associate companies, which are companies incorporated
in India, whose financial information is unaudited, and is based solely on the Management’s representations provided to us and our
opinion on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls over financial reporting of the Group is not
affected as the financial information of such entities is not material to the Group.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matters with respect to our reliance on the work done and the reports of other
auditors and the financial information certified by the Management.

Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE [1]
Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Statement of compliance
The Group’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the
Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and amendments
thereof issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs in exercise of the powers conferred by section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013.
In addition, the guidance notes/announcements issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) are also applied
except where compliance with other statutory promulgations require a different treatment. These financials statements have been
approved for issue by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on May 28, 2018.
(b) Basis of accounting
The Group maintains its accounts on accrual basis following historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments that
are measured at fair value in accordance with Ind AS.
Fair value measurements are categorised as below based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are
observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety:
•
•
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Group can access at
measurement date
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included in level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly; and
•
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the valuation of assets or liabilities
Above levels of fair value hierarchy are applied consistently and generally, there are no transfers between the levels of the fair
value hierarchy unless the circumstances change warranting such transfer.
(c) 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 III
to the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”). The Statement of Cash Flows has been prepared and presented as per the requirements
of Ind AS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”. The disclosure requirements with respect to items in the Balance Sheet and Statement of
Profit and Loss, as prescribed in the Schedule III to the Act, are presented by way of notes forming part of the financial statements
along with the other notes required to be disclosed under the notified Accounting Standards and the SEBI (Listing Obligations and
Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 as amended.
Amounts in the financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees in crore [1 crore = 10 million] rounded off to two decimal
places as permitted by Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013. Per share data are presented in Indian Rupees to two decimal
places.
(d) Basis of consolidation
(i)
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. For
this purpose, an entity which is, directly or indirectly, controlled by the Parent Company is treated as subsidiary. The Parent
Company together with its subsidiaries constitute the Group. Control exists when the Parent Company, directly or indirectly,
has power over the investee, is exposed to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to use its
power to affect its returns.
(ii) Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Parent Company, directly or indirectly, obtains control over the subsidiary and
ceases when the Parent Company, directly or indirectly, loses control of the subsidiary. Income and expenses of a subsidiary
acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss from the date the
Parent Company, directly or indirectly, gains control until the date when the Parent Company, directly or indirectly, ceases to
control the subsidiary.
(iii) The consolidated financial statements of the Group combines financial statements of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries
line-by-line by adding together the like items of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. All intra-group assets, liabilities,
income, expenses and unrealised profits/losses on intra-group transactions are eliminated on consolidation. The accounting
policies of subsidiaries have been harmonised to ensure the consistency with the policies adopted by the Parent Company.

Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
The consolidated financial statements have been presented to the extent possible, in the same manner as Parent Company’s
standalone financial statements.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Parent Company and
to the non-controlling interests and have been shown separately in the financial statements.
(iv) Non-controlling interest represents that part of the total comprehensive income and net assets of subsidiaries attributable to
interests which are not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Parent Company.
(v) The gains/losses in respect of part divestment/dilution of stake in subsidiary companies not resulting in ceding of control, are
recognised directly in other equity attributable to the owners of the Parent Company.
(vi) The gains/losses in respect of divestment of stake resulting in ceding of control in subsidiary companies are recognised in
the Statement of Profit and Loss. The investment representing the interest retained in a former subsidiary, if any, is initially
recognised at its fair value with the corresponding effect recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as on the date the
control is ceded. Such retained interest is subsequently accounted as an associate or a joint venture or a financial asset.
(e)
Investments in joint venture and associates
When the Group has with other parties joint control of the arrangement and rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement,
it recognises its interest as joint venture. Joint control exists when the decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous
consent of the parties sharing the control. When the Group has significant influence over the other entity, it recognises such
interests as associates. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the entity
but is not control or joint control over the entity.
The results, assets and liabilities of joint venture and associates are incorporated in the consolidated financial statements using
equity method of accounting after making necessary adjustments to achieve uniformity in application of accounting policies,
wherever applicable. An investment in associate or joint venture is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise
the Group’s share of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the joint venture or associate. Gain or loss in respect
of changes in other equity of joint ventures or associates resulting in dilution of stake in the joint ventures and associates is
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. On acquisition of investment in a joint venture or associate, any excess of cost
of investment over the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the joint venture, is recognised as goodwill and is included in
the carrying value of the investment in the joint venture and associate. The excess of fair value of assets and liabilities over the
investment is recognised directly in equity as capital reserve. The unrealised profits/losses on transactions with joint ventures are
eliminated by reducing the carrying amount of investment.
The carrying amount of investment in joint ventures and associates is reduced to recognise impairment, if any, when there is
objective evidence of impairment.
When the Group’s share of losses of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the Group’s interest in that associate or joint venture
(which includes any long term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate or joint
venture), the Group discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognised only to the extent that the
Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture.
(f)
Interests in joint operations
When the Group has joint control of the arrangement based on contractually determined right to the assets and obligations for
liabilities, it recognises such interests as joint operations. Joint control exists when the decisions about the relevant activities require
unanimous consent of the parties sharing the control. In respect of its interests in joint operations, the Group recognises its share
in assets, liabilities, income and expenses line-by-line in the standalone financial statements of the entity which is party to such
joint arrangement which then becomes part of the consolidated financial statements of the Group when the financial statements
of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries are combined for consolidation. Interests in joint operations are included in the
segments to which they relate.
(g) Business Combination/Goodwill on consolidation
The Group accounts for its business combinations under acquisition method of accounting. Acquisition related costs are recognised
in the statement of profit and loss as incurred. The acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the
condition for recognition are recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date.
361
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
Goodwill on consolidation as on the date of transition i.e. April 1, 2015 represents the excess of cost of acquisition at each point
of time of making the investment in the subsidiary over the Group’s share in the net worth of a subsidiary. For this purpose, the
Group’s share of net worth is determined on the basis of the latest financial statements, prior to the 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 excess of the Group’s share in the net worth of a subsidiary over the cost of acquisition
at each point of time of making the investment in the subsidiary.
Goodwill on consolidation arising on acquisitions on or after the date of transition represents the excess of(a) consideration
paid for acquiring control and (b) acquisition date fair value of previously held ownership interest, if any, in a subsidiary over the
Group’s share in the fair value of the net assets (including identifiable intangibles) of the subsidiary as on the date of acquisition of
control.
Goodwill on consolidation is allocated to cash generating units or group of cash generating units that are expected to benefit from
the synergies of the acquisition.
Goodwill arising on consolidation is not amortised, however, it is tested for impairment annually. In the event of cessation of
operations of a subsidiary, the unimpaired goodwill is written off fully.
Business combinations arising from transfers of interests in entities that are under common control are accounted at historical
cost. The difference between any consideration given and the aggregate historical carrying amounts of assets and liabilities of the
acquired entity are recorded in shareholders’ equity.
(h) Operating cycle for current and non-current classification
Operating cycle for the business activities of the Group covers the duration of the specific project/contract/product line/service
including the defect liability period, wherever applicable and extends up to the realisation of receivables (including retention
monies) within the agreed credit period normally applicable to the respective lines of business.
(i) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised based on nature of activity when consideration can be reasonably measured and recovered with reasonable
certainty. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is reduced for estimated customer
returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
(i)
Revenue from operations
Revenue for the periods upto June 30, 2017 includes excise duty collected from customers. Revenue from July 1, 2017
onwards is exclusive of Goods and Service tax (GST) which subsumed excise duty. Revenue also includes adjustments made
towards liquidated damages and variation wherever applicable. Escalation and other claims, which are not ascertainable/
acknowledged by customers are not taken into account.
A.
Sale of goods
Revenue from sale of manufactured and traded goods is recognised when all the following conditions are satisfied:
1.
significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods are transferred to the buyer;
2.
the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor
effective control over the good sold;
3.
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
4.
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group; and
5.
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably
B.
Revenue from construction/project related activity and contracts for supply/commissioning of complex plant and
equipment is recognised as follows:
1. Cost plus contracts: Revenue from cost plus contracts is recognised by reference to the recoverable costs incurred
during the period plus the margin as agreed with the customer.
2.
Fixed price contracts: Contract revenue is recognised only to the extent of cost incurred till such time the
outcome of the job cannot be ascertained reliably subject to the condition that it is probable that such cost will
362
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
be recoverable. When the outcome of the contract is ascertained reliably, contract revenue is recognised 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.
The estimated outcome of a contract is considered reliable when all the following conditions are satisfied:
i.
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
ii.
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the contract will flow to the Group;
iii.
the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
iv.
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the contract can be measured reliably
Expected loss, if any, on a contract is recognised as expense in the period in which it is foreseen, irrespective of the stage
of completion of the contract.
For contracts where progress billing exceeds the aggregate of contract costs incurred to date plus recognised profits (or
recognised losses as the case may be), the surplus is shown as the amount due to customers and in case the aggregate
of contract cost incurred to date plus recognised profits (or recognised losses as the case may be) exceeds the progress
billing, the surplus is shown as due from customers. Amounts received before the related work is performed are
disclosed in the consolidated Balance Sheet, as a liability towards advance received. Amount billed for work performed
but yet to be paid by the customer are disclosed in the consolidated Balance Sheet as trade receivables. The amount of
retention money held by the customers is disclosed as part of other current assets and is reclassified as trade receivables
when it becomes due for payment.
C. Revenue from construction/project related activity and contracts executed in joint arrangements under work-sharing
arrangement [being joint operations, in terms of Ind AS 111 “Joint Arrangements”], is recognised on the same basis as
adopted in respect of contracts independently executed by the Group.
D. Revenue from property development activities which are in substance similar to delivery of goods is recognised 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.
Revenue from those property development activities in the nature of a construction contract is recognised based on the
‘Percentage of completion method’ (POC) when the outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably upon fulfillment
of all the following conditions:
1.
all critical approvals necessary for commencement of the project have been obtained;
2.
contract costs for work performed (excluding cost of land/developmental rights and borrowing cost) constitute at
least 25% of the estimated total contract costs representing a reasonable level of development;
3.
at least 25% of the saleable project area is secured by contracts or agreements with buyers; and
4.
at least 10% of the total revenue as per the agreements of sale or any other legally enforceable documents is
realised at the reporting date in respect of each of the contracts and the parties to such contracts can be reasonably
expected to comply with the contractual payment terms.
The costs incurred on property development activities are carried as “Inventories” till such time the outcome of the
project cannot be estimated reliably and all the aforesaid conditions are fulfilled. When the outcome of the project
can be ascertained reliably and all the aforesaid conditions are fulfilled, revenue from property development activity
is recognised at cost incurred plus proportionate margin, using percentage of completion method. Percentage of
completion is determined based on the proportion of actual cost incurred to date to the total estimated cost of the
project. For the purpose of computing percentage of construction, cost of land, developmental rights and borrowing
costs are excluded.
Expected loss, if any, on the project is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is foreseen, irrespective of the
stage of completion of the contract.
363
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
In the case of the developmental project business and the realty business, revenue includes profit on sale of investment
properties or sale of stake in the subsidiary and/or joint venture companies as the sale/divestments are inherent in the
business model.
E.
Rendering of services
Revenue from rendering services is recognised when the outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably by reference
to the stage of completion of the transaction. The outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably when all the
following conditions are satisfied:
1.
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
2.
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group;
3.
the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
4.
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably
Stage of completion is determined by the proportion of actual costs incurred to date to the estimated total costs of
the transaction. Unbilled revenue represents value of services performed in accordance with the contract terms but not
billed.
In respect of information technology (IT) business and technology services business, revenue from contracts awarded on
time and material basis is recognised when services are rendered and related costs are incurred. Revenue from fixed price
contracts is recognised using the proportionate completion method.
Revenue from contracts for rendering of engineering design services and other services which are directly related to the
construction of an asset is recognised on the same basis as stated in (i) B above.
Income from hire purchase and lease transactions is accounted on accrual basis, pro-rata for the period, at the rates
implicit in the transaction. Income from bill discounting, advisory and syndication services and other financing activities
is accounted on accrual basis. Income from interest-bearing assets is recognised on accrual basis over the life of the asset
based on the effective yield.
F.
G.
H. Revenue on account of construction services rendered in connection with Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) projects
undertaken by the Group is recognised during the period of construction using percentage of completion method. After
the completion of construction period, revenue relatable to fare/toll collections of such projects from users of facilities is
accounted when the amount is due and recovery is certain. License fees for way-side amenities are accounted on accrual
basis.
I.
J.
Commission income is recognised as and when the terms of the contract are fulfilled.
Income from investment management fees is recognised in accordance with the contractual terms and the SEBI
regulations based on average Assets Under Management (AUM) of mutual fund schemes over the period of the
agreement in terms of which services are performed. Portfolio management fees are recognised in accordance with the
related contracts entered with the clients over the period of the agreement. Trusteeship fees are accounted on accrual
basis.
K. Revenue from port operation services is recognised on completion of respective services or as per terms agreed with the
port operator, wherever applicable.
L.
Revenue from charter hire is recognised based on the terms of the time charter agreement.
M. Revenue from operation and maintenance services of power plant receivable under the Power Purchase Agreement is
recognised on accrual basis.
N. Other operational revenue:
1. Government grants, which are revenue in nature and are towards compensation for the qualifying costs, incurred
by the Group, are recognised as other operational income in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in
which such costs are incurred. Government grant receivable in the form duty credit scrips is recognised as other
364
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
operational income in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the application is made to the
government authorities and to the extent there is no uncertainty towards its receipt.
2. Other operational revenue represents income earned from the activities incidental to the business and is recognised
when the right to receive the income is established as per the terms of the contract.
(ii) Other income
A.
Interest income on investments and loans is accrued on a time basis by reference to the principal outstanding and the
effective interest rate including interest on investments classified as fair value through profit or loss or fair value through
other comprehensive income. Interest receivable on customer dues is recognised as income in the Statement of Profit
and Loss on accrual basis provided there is no uncertainty towards its realisation.
B. Dividend income is accounted in the period in which the right to receive the same is established.
C. Other items of income are accounted as and when the right to receive such income arises and it is probable that the
economic benefits will flow to the group and the amount of income can be measured reliably.
(j) Exceptional items
An item of income or expense which by its size, type or incidence requires disclosure in order to improve an understanding of the
performance of the Group is treated as an exceptional item and the same is disclosed in the notes to accounts.
(k) Property, plant and equipment (PPE)
PPE is recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of
the item can be measured reliably. PPE is stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits availed, if any, less accumulated depreciation
and cumulative impairment, if any. PPE acquired on hire purchase basis are recognised at their cash values. Cost includes
professional fees related to the acquisition of PPE and, for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the
Group’s accounting policy.
Own manufactured PPE is capitalised at cost including an appropriate share of overheads. Administrative and other general
overhead expenses that are specifically attributable to construction or acquisition of PPE or bringing the PPE to working condition
are allocated and capitalised as a part of the cost of the PPE.
PPE not ready for the intended use on the date of the Balance Sheet are disclosed as “capital work-in-progress”. (Also refer to
policies on leases, borrowing costs, impairment of assets and foreign currency transactions below).
Depreciation is recognised using straight line method so as to write off the cost of the assets (other than freehold land and
properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful lives specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013,
or in case of assets where the useful life was determined by technical evaluation, over the useful life so determined. Depreciation
method is reviewed at each financial year end to reflect the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits
embodied in the asset. The estimated useful life and residual values are also reviewed at each financial year end with the effect of
any change in the estimates of useful life/residual value is accounted on prospective basis.
Where cost of a part of the asset (“asset component”) is significant to total cost of the asset and useful life of that part is different
from the useful life of the remaining asset, useful life of that significant part is determined separately and such asset component is
depreciated over its separate useful life.
Depreciation on additions to/deductions from, owned assets is calculated pro rata from the date it is ready for use. Extra shift
depreciation is provided on a location basis.
Depreciation charge for impaired assets is adjusted in future periods in such a manner that the revised carrying amount of the
asset is allocated over its remaining useful life.
Assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated on a straight line basis over the lease term. Where there is reasonable
certainty that the Group shall obtain ownership of the assets at the end of the lease term, such assets are depreciated based on
the useful life adopted by the Group for similar assets.
Freehold land is not depreciated.
365
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
(l)
Investment property
Properties (including those under construction) held to earn rentals and/or capital appreciation are classified as investment property
and are measured and reported at cost, including transaction costs.
Depreciation is recognised using straight line method so as to write off the cost of the investment property less their residual
values over their useful lives specified in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, or in the case of assets where the useful life was
determined by technical evaluation, over the useful life so determined. Depreciation method is reviewed at each financial year end
to reflect the expected pattern of consumption of the future benefits embodied in the investment property. The estimated useful
life and residual values are also reviewed at each financial year end and the effect of any change in the estimates of useful life/
residual value is accounted on prospective basis. Freehold land and properties under construction are not depreciated.
An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and
no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of property is recognised in
the Statement of Profit and Loss in the same period.
(m) Intangible assets
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 stated at original cost net of tax/duty
credits availed, if any, less accumulated amortisation and cumulative impairment. 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.
Research and development expenditure on new products:
(i)
Expenditure on research is expensed under respective heads of account in the period in which it is incurred
(ii) Development expenditure on new products is capitalised as intangible asset, if all of the following can be demonstrated:
A.
the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
B.
the Group has intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
C.
the Group has ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
D.
E.
F.
the manner in which the probable future economic benefits will be generated including the existence of a market for
output of the intangible asset or intangible asset itself or if it is to be used internally, the usefulness of intangible assets;
the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the
intangible asset; and
the Group has ability to reliably measure the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
Development expenditure that does not meet the above criteria is expensed in the period in which it is incurred.
Intangible assets not ready for the intended use on the date of the Balance Sheet are disclosed as “intangible assets under
development”.
Intangible assets are amortised on straight line basis over the estimated useful life. The method of amortisation and useful life are
reviewed at the end of each accounting year with the effect of any changes in the estimate being accounted for on a prospective
basis. The estimated useful life for major categories of the intangible assets are as follows:
(i)
specialised software: over a period of three to ten years;
(ii)
technical know-how: over a period of three to seven years;
(iii) development costs for new products: over a period of five years;
(iv) customer contracts and relationships: over a period of the contract which generally is over seven to ten years;
(v)
intangible assets with indefinite useful life that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses;
(vi)
fare collection rights obtained in consideration for rendering construction services represent the right to collect fare during
the concession period in respect of Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) projects undertaken by the Group. Fare collection rights are
366
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
capitalised as intangible asset upon completion of the project at the cumulative construction costs including related margins.
Till the completion of the project, the same is recognised as intangible assets under development. Fare collection rights are
amortised using the straight line method over the period of concession; and
(vii) exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred for potential mineral reserves is recognised and reported as part of
“intangible assets under development” 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.
Amortisation on impaired assets is provided by adjusting the amortisation charge in the remaining periods so as to allocate the
asset’s revised carrying amount over its remaining useful life.
(n)
Impairment of assets
As at the end of each accounting year, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its PPE, investment property and intangible
assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If such indication exists, the
PPE, investment property and intangible assets are tested for impairment so as to determine the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill
and the intangible assets with indefinite life are tested for impairment each year.
Impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is
determined:
(i)
in the case of an individual asset, at the higher of the net selling price and the value in use; and
(ii)
in the case of a cash generating unit (the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates independent cash flows), at the
higher of the cash generating unit’s net selling price and the value in use.
(The amount of 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. For this purpose, the discount rate (pre-tax) is determined based on the weighted
average cost of capital of the Company suitably adjusted for risks specified to the estimated cash flows of the asset).
If recoverable amount of an asset (or cash generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, such deficit is
recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as impairment loss and the carrying amount of the asset (or cash
generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. For this purpose, the impairment loss recognised in respect of a cash
generating unit is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to such cash generating unit and then to
reduce the carrying amount of the other assets of the cash generating unit on a pro-rata basis.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating unit), except for allocated
goodwill, is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the
carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss is recognised for the asset (or cash generating unit) in
prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss (other than impairment loss allocated to goodwill) is recognised immediately in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.
(o) Employee benefits
(i)
Short term employee benefits:
Employee benefits such as salaries, wages, short term compensated absences, expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia and
performance linked rewards falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term
employee benefits and are expensed in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
(ii) Post-employment benefits:
A. Defined contribution plans: The Group’s superannuation scheme, state governed provident fund scheme, employee
state insurance scheme, social security contributions and employee pension scheme are defined contribution plans. The
contribution paid/payable under the schemes is recognised during the period in which the employee renders the related
service.
367
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
B. Defined benefit plans: The employees’ gratuity fund schemes and employee provident fund schemes managed by board
of trustees established by the Company, the post-retirement medical care plan and the Parent Company pension plan
represent defined benefit plans. The present value of the obligation under defined benefit plans is determined based on
actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method.
The obligation is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash flows using a discount rate based on the market
yield on government securities of a maturity period equivalent to the weighted average maturity profile of the defined benefit
obligations at the Balance Sheet date.
Re-measurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest
on the net defined benefit liability or asset) and any change in the effect of asset ceiling (if applicable) is recognised in other
comprehensive income and is reflected in retained earnings and the same is not eligible to be reclassified to profit or loss.
Defined benefit costs comprising current service cost, past service cost and gains or losses on settlements are recognised
in the Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefits expense. Interest cost implicit in defined benefit employee cost is
recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss under finance cost. Gains or losses on settlement of any defined benefit plan
are recognised when the settlement occurs. Past service cost is recognised as expense at the earlier of the plan amendment or
curtailment and when the Group recognises related restructuring costs or termination benefits.
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.
(iii) Long term employee benefits:
The obligation recognised in respect of long term benefits such as compensated absences, long service award etc. is
measured at present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be made by the Group and is recognised in a similar
manner as in the case of defined benefit plans vide (ii) B above.
Long term employee benefit costs comprising current service cost and gains or losses on curtailments and settlements,
re-measurements including actuarial gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as employee benefit
expenses. Interest cost implicit in long term employee benefit cost is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss under
finance cost.
(iv) Termination benefits:
Termination benefits such as compensation under employee separation schemes are recognised as expense when the
company’s offer of the termination benefit is accepted or when the Group recognises the related restructuring costs
whichever is earlier.
(p) Leases
The determination of whether an agreement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the agreement at the date of
inception. Power generation projects executed under long term Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) with state utilities that are in
substance finance leases are classified accordingly.
(i)
Finance leases:
Leases where the all the risks and rewards of ownership of the related assets are substantially transferred to the lessee are
classified as finance leases.
A. Assets taken under finance lease are capitalised at the commencement of the lease at the lower of the fair value or
the present value of minimum lease payments and a liability is created for an equivalent amount. Each lease rental
paid is allocated between the liability and the interest cost, so as to obtain a constant periodic rate of interest on the
outstanding liability for each period.
B. Assets given under a finance lease are recognised as a receivable at an amount equal to the net investment in the lease.
Lease income is recognised over the period of the lease so as to yield a constant rate of return on the net investment in
the lease.
368
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
(ii) Operating leases:
The leases which are not classified as finance lease are operating leases.
A.
Lease rentals on assets under operating lease are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis
over the term of the relevant lease.
B. Assets leased out under operating leases are continued to be shown under the respective class of assets. Rental income
is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
(Also refer to policy on depreciation above)
(q) Financial instruments
Financial assets and/or financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes party to a contract embodying the related
financial instruments. All financial assets, financial liabilities and financial guarantee contracts are initially measured at transaction
values and where such values are different from the fair value, at fair value. Transaction costs that are attributable to the
acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from, as the case may be, the fair value of such financial assets or liabilities on
initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
A financial asset and a financial liability is offset and presented on net basis in the balance sheet when there is a current legally
enforceable right to set-off the recognised amounts and it is intended to either settle on net basis or to realise the asset and settle
the liability simultaneously.
(i)
Financial assets
A. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value,
depending on the classification of the financial assets as follows:
1.
Investments in debt instruments that are designated as fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) - at fair value
2. Other investments in debt instruments – at amortised cost, subject to following conditions:
•
•
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash
flows; and
The contractual terms of instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
3. Debt instruments that meet the following conditions are subsequently measured at fair value through other
comprehensive income [FVTOCI] (unless the same are designated as fair value through profit or loss)
•
•
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows
and selling financial assets; and
The contractual terms of instrument give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
4. Debt instruments at FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments, if any, and all changes are recognised in
profit or loss.
5.
Investments in equity instruments are classified as FVTPL, unless the related instruments are not held for trading
and the Group irrevocably elects on initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value in other
comprehensive income.
6.
The group has elected to measure the investments in associates and joint ventures held through unit trusts at
FVTPL.
B.
For financial assets that are measured at FVTOCI, income by way of interest and dividend, provision for impairment
and exchange difference, if any, (on debt instrument) are recognised in profit or loss and changes in fair value (other
than on account of above income or expense) are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other
369
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
equity. On disposal of debt instruments at FVTOCI, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in other equity
is reclassified to profit or loss. In case of equity instruments at FVTOCI, such cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to
profit or loss on disposal of investments.
C. A financial asset is primarily derecognised when:
1.
the right to receive cash flows from the asset has expired, or
2.
the group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the
received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a pass-through arrangement; and a) the
group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or b) the group has neither transferred nor
retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount measured at the date of
derecognition and the consideration received is recognised in profit or loss.
D.
Impairment of financial assets: The Group recognises impairment loss on trade receivables using expected credit loss
model which involves use of a provision matrix constructed on the basis of historical credit loss experience as permitted
under Ind AS 109.
In respect of financial services business, the Group applies a separate model of the expected credit loss for recognising
impairment loss on financial assets measured at amortised cost, debt instruments at FVTOCI, lease receivables, trade
receivables and other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset, and financial guarantees not designated
as at FVTPL as follows:
•
•
Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the
weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Group in accordance
with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the
original effective interest rate (or credit-adjusted effective interest rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired
financial assets). The Group estimates cash flows by considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument
(for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar options) through the expected life of that financial instrument.
The Group measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected
credit losses if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the
credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Group measures
the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. 12-month
expected credit losses are portion of the lifetime expected credit losses and represent the lifetime cash shortfalls
that will result if default occurs within the 12 months weighted by the probability of default after the reporting
date and thus, are not cash shortfalls that are predicted over the next 12 months.
• When making the assessment of whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition,
the Group uses the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument
instead of the change in the amount of expected credit losses. To make that assessment, the Group compares
the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default
occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and considers reasonable and supportable
information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of significant increases in credit risk
since initial recognition
(ii)
Financial liabilities
A.
Financial liabilities, including derivatives and embedded derivatives, which are designated for measurement at FVTPL
are subsequently measured at fair value. Financial guarantee contracts are subsequently measured at the amount of
impairment loss allowance or the amount recognised at inception net of cumulative amortisation, whichever is higher.
All other financial liabilities including loans and borrowings are measured at amortised cost using Effective Interest Rate
(EIR) method.
B. A financial liability is derecognised when the related obligation expires or is discharged or cancelled.
370
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
(iii) The Group designates certain hedging instruments such as derivatives, embedded derivatives and in respect of foreign
currency risk, certain non-derivatives as either fair value hedges, cash flow hedges, or hedges of net investments in foreign
operations. Hedges of foreign exchange risk on firm commitments are accounted as cash flow hedges.
A.
Fair value hedges: Changes in fair value of the designated portion of derivatives that qualify as fair value hedges are
recognised in profit or loss immediately, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that
are attributable to the hedged risk. Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold,
terminated, or exercised, or when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. The fair value adjustment to the carrying
amount of the hedged item arising from the hedged risk is amortised to profit or loss from that date.
B. Cash flow hedges: In case of transaction related hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives
that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in
equity as ‘hedging reserve’. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or
loss. Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity relating to the effective
portion are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss, in the same head as
the hedged item. The effective portion of the hedge is determined at the lower of the cumulative gain or loss on the
hedging instrument from inception of the hedge and the cumulative change in the fair value of the hedged item from
the inception of the hedge and the remaining gain or loss on the hedging instrument is treated as ineffective portion.
In case of time period related hedges, the forward element and the spot element of a forward contract is separated
and only the change in the value of the spot element of the forward contract is designated as the hedging instrument.
Similarly, wherever applicable, the foreign currency basis spread is separated from the financial instrument and is
excluded from the designation of that financial instrument as the hedging instrument in case of time period related
hedges. The changes in the fair value of the forward element of the forward contract or the foreign currency basis
spread of the financial instrument is accumulated in a separate component of equity as ‘cost of hedging’. The
changes in the fair value of such forward element or foreign currency basis spread are reclassified to profit or loss as a
reclassification adjustment on a straight line basis over the period of the forward contract or the financial instrument.
The cash flow hedges are allocated to the forecast transactions on gross exposure basis.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it no
longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity
at that time remains in equity and is recognised in profit or loss when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in
profit or loss. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognised
immediately in profit or loss.
(iv) Compound financial instruments issued by the Group which can be converted into fixed number of equity shares at the
option of the holders irrespective of changes in the fair value of the instrument are accounted by separately recognising the
liability and the equity components. The liability component is initially recognised at the fair value of a comparable liability
that does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is initially recognised at the difference between
the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. The directly
attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and the equity components in proportion to their initial carrying
amounts.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of the compound financial instrument is measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not remeasured
subsequently.
(r)
Inventories
Inventories are valued after providing for obsolescence, as under:
(i)
Raw materials, components, construction materials, stores, spares and loose tools at lower of weighted average cost or net
realisable value. However, these items are considered to be realisable at cost if the finished products in which they will be
used, are expected to be sold at or above cost.
(ii) Manufacturing work-in-progress at lower of weighted average cost including related overheads or net realisable value. In
some cases, manufacturing work-in-progress are valued at lower of specifically identifiable cost or net realisable value. In the
case of qualifying assets, cost also includes applicable borrowing costs vide policy relating to borrowing costs.
371
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
(iii) Finished goods and stock-in-trade (in respect of goods acquired for trading) at lower of weighted average cost or net
realisable value. Cost includes related overheads and excise duty paid/payable on such goods.
(iv) Completed property/work-in-progress (including land) in respect of property development activity at lower of specifically
identifiable cost or net realisable value.
Assessment of net realisable value is made at each subsequent period end and when the circumstances that previously caused
inventories to be written-down below cost no longer exist or when there is clear evidence of an increase in net realisable value
because of changed economic circumstances, the write-down, if any, in the past period is reversed to the extent of the original
amount written-down so that the resultant carrying amount is the lower of the cost and the revised net realisable value.
(s) Cash and bank balances
Cash and bank balances also include fixed deposits, margin money deposits, earmarked balances with banks and other bank
balances which have restrictions on repatriation. Short term and liquid investments being subject to more than insignificant risk of
change in value, are not included as part of cash and cash equivalents.
(t) Securities premium account
(i)
Securities premium includes:
A.
The difference between the face value of the equity shares and the consideration received in respect of shares issued.
B.
The fair value of the stock options which are treated as expense, if any, in respect of shares allotted pursuant to Stock
Options Scheme
(ii) The issue expenses of securities which qualify as equity instruments are written off against securities premium account
(u)
Borrowing Costs
Borrowing costs include interest expense calculated using the effective interest method, finance charges in respect of assets
acquired on finance lease and exchange differences arising on foreign currency borrowings, to the extent they are regarded as an
adjustment to interest costs.
Borrowing costs net of any investment income from the temporary investment of related borrowings that are attributable to the
acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised/inventoried 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 in profit or loss in the period in which they are
incurred.
(v) Share-based payment arrangements
The stock options granted to employees pursuant to the Group’s Stock Options Schemes, are measured at the fair value of the
options at the grant date. The fair value of the options is treated as discount and accounted as employee compensation cost over
the vesting period on a straight line basis. The amount recognised as expense in each year is arrived at based on the number of
grants expected to vest. If a grant lapses after the vesting period, the cumulative discount recognised as expense in respect of such
grant is transferred to the general reserve within equity.
(w) Foreign currencies
(i)
The functional currency and presentation currency of the Group is Indian Rupee. Functional currency of the Group and foreign
operations has been determined based on the primary economic environment in which the Group and its foreign operations
operate considering the currency in which funds are generated, spent and retained.
(ii) Transactions in currencies other than the Group’s functional currency are recorded on initial recognition using the exchange
rate at the transaction date. At each Balance Sheet date, foreign currency monetary items are reported at the closing spot
rate. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currency are not retranslated. Exchange
differences that arise on settlement of monetary items or on reporting of monetary items at each Balance Sheet date at the
closing spot rate are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they arise except for:
A.
exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings relating to assets under construction for future productive use,
which are included in the cost of those assets when they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on those
foreign currency borrowings;
372
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
B.
exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks; and
C.
exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is
neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in foreign operation), which are
recognised initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on repayment of the
monetary items.
(iii) Financial statements of foreign operations whose functional currency is different than Indian Rupees are translated into Indian
Rupees as follows:
A.
assets and liabilities for each Balance Sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that Balance Sheet;
B.
income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates; and
C.
all resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity as foreign
currency translation reserve for subsequent reclassification to profit or loss on disposal of such foreign operations. The
portion of foreign currency translation reserve attributed to non-controlling interest is reflected as part of non-controlling
interest.
(x) Accounting and reporting of information for Operating Segments
Operating segments are those components of the business whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating
decision making body in the Group to make decisions for performance assessment and resource allocation. The reporting of
segment information is the same as provided to the management for the purpose of the performance assessment and resource
allocation to the segments.
Segment accounting policies are in line with the accounting policies of the Group. In addition, the following specific accounting
policies have been followed for segment reporting:
(i)
Segment revenue includes sales and other operational revenue directly identifiable with/allocable to the segment including (a)
inter segment revenue and (b) profit on sale of stake in the subsidiary and/or joint venture companies under Developmental
projects segment and Realty business grouped under “Others” segment
(ii) Expenses that are directly identifiable with/allocable to segments are considered for determining the segment result. In
respect of (a) Financial Services segment and (b) Power Generation projects under Developmental Projects segment which are
classified as assets given on finance lease, the interest expenses on borrowings are accounted as segment expenses.
(iii) Most of the centrally incurred costs are allocated to segments mainly on the basis of their respective expected segment
revenue estimated at the beginning of the reported period.
(iv)
Income which relates to the Group as a whole and not allocable to segments is included in “unallocable corporate income”.
(v) Segment result includes margins on inter-segment capital jobs, which are reduced in arriving at the profit before tax of the
Group.
(vi) Segment result includes the interest expense incurred on interest bearing advances with corresponding credit included in
“unallocable corporate income”
(vii) Segment results have not been adjusted for the exceptional item attributable to the corresponding segment. The said
exceptional item has been included in “unallocable corporate income net of expenditure”. The corresponding segment assets
have been carried under the respective segments without adjusting the exceptional item
(viii) Segment assets and liabilities include those directly identifiable with the respective segments. In respect of (a) Financial
Services segment, and (b) Power Generation projects under Developmental Projects segment which are classified as assets
given on finance lease, segment liabilities include borrowings as the interest expenses on borrowings are accounted as
segment expenses in respect of the segment and projects. Investment in joint ventures and associates identified with a
particular segment are reported as part of the segment assets of those respective segments.
Unallocable corporate assets and liabilities represent the assets and liabilities that relate to the Group as a whole.
373
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
(ix) Segment non-cash expenses forming part of segment expenses includes the fair value of the employee stock options which is
accounted as employee compensation cost [see Note 1(v) above] and is allocated to the segment.
(x) Segment revenue resulting from transactions with other business segments is accounted on the basis of transfer price which
are either determined to yield a desired margin or agreed on a negotiated basis
(y) Taxes on income
Tax on income for the current period is determined on the basis of taxable income (or on the basis of book profits wherever
minimum alternate tax is applicable) and tax credits computed in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act 1961, and
based on the expected outcome of assessments/appeals.
Dividend distribution tax paid on profits distributed by the subsidiary company during the period is treated as an item of expense
and recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The dividend distribution tax paid in earlier years for which set off is available
against the tax liability arising out of the dividend distribution by the Parent Company is recognised as an item of income in the
period in which such set off is availed with corresponding effect in the equity to the extent of such set off. Both the recognition of
expense and income as aforesaid are included in the current tax in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Group’s financial
statements and the corresponding tax bases used in computation of taxable profit and quantified using the tax rates and laws
enacted or substantively enacted as on the Balance Sheet date.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences including the temporary differences associated
with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the
reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Dividend distribution tax payable on profits of subsidiary companies which are proposed to be distributed in foreseeable future, is
recognised as deferred tax liability with corresponding effect in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which such profits
are proposed to be so distributed. Such liability is reversed in the period in which the profits are distributed by the subsidiary
company.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences to the extent that is probable that taxable profits
will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is
reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits
will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets relating to unabsorbed depreciation/business losses/losses under the head “capital gains” are recognised and
carried forward to the extent of available taxable temporary differences or where there is convincing other evidence that sufficient
future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. Deferred tax assets in respect of
unutilised tax credits which mainly relate to minimum alternate tax are recognised to the extent it is probable of such unutilised tax
credits will get realised.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which
the Group expects, at the end of reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Transaction or event which is recognised outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or in equity, is recorded along
with the tax as applicable
(z) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions are recognised only when:
(i)
the Group entity has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event; and
(ii)
it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and
(iii) a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation
Provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation and when the effect of time value of money
is material, the carrying amount of the provision is the present value of those cash flows. 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.
374
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [1] (contd.)
Contingent liability is disclosed in case of:
(i)
a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle
the obligation; and
(ii) a present obligation arising from past events, when no reliable estimate is possible.
Contingent assets are disclosed where an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent
assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
Where the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received
under such contract, the present obligation under the contract is recognised and measured as a provision.
(aa) Commitments
Commitments are future liabilities for contractual expenditure, 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 commitment 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
(ab) Non-current assets held for sale
Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is intended to be recovered principally
through a sale (rather than through continuing use) when the asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present
condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sale of such asset (or disposal group) and the sale is highly
probable and is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification.
Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at lower of their carrying amount and fair value less
costs to sell.
(ac) Statement of Cash Flows
Statement of Cash Flows is prepared segregating the cash flows into operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flow from
operating activities is reported using indirect method adjusting the net profit for the effects of:
i.
ii.
changes during the period in inventories and operating receivables and payables, transactions of a non-cash nature;
non-cash items such as depreciation, provisions, deferred taxes, unrealised foreign currency gains and losses, and
undistributed profits of associates and joint ventures; and
iii. all other items for which the cash effects are investing or financing cash flows.
Cash and cash equivalents (including bank balances) shown in the Statement of Cash Flows exclude items which are not available
for general use as at the date of Balance Sheet.
(ad) Key sources of estimation
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires that the management of the Group 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. The estimates and
underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates include useful lives of property, plant
and equipment & intangible assets, allowance for doubtful debts/advances, future obligations in respect of retirement benefit
plans, expected cost of completion of contracts, provision for rectification costs, fair value measurement etc. Difference, if any,
between the actual results and estimates is recognised in the period in which the results are known.

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 interest income on plan assets:
The Trust formed by the Parent Company and a few subsidiaries manage the investments of provident funds and gratuity
fund. Interest income on plan assets is determined by multiplying the fair value of the plan assets by the discount rate
stated in (vii) below both determined at the start of the annual reporting period.
The Group expects to fund R 93.63 crore (previous year: R 37.48 crore) towards its gratuity plan and R 122.04 crore
(previous year: R 140.68 crore) towards its trust-managed provident fund plan during the year 2018-19.

(a) For post-retirement medical benefit plan & pension plan, the attrition rate varies from 1% to 12% (previous year:
2% to 8%) for various age groups.
(b) For gratuity plan the attrition rate varies from 1% to 25% (previous year: 1% to 6%) for various age groups.
(E) 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.
(F) 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.
(G) The obligation of the Group 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.
(H) A one percentage point change in actuarial assumptions would have the following effects on defined benefit obligation:

(viii) Characteristics of defined benefit plans and associated risks:
(A) Gratuity plan:
The Parent 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 The Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.
The defined benefit plans for gratuity of the Parent Company and material domestic subsidiary companies are
administered by separate gratuity funds that is legally separate from the Parent Company and the material domestic
subsidiary companies. The trustees nominated by the group are responsible for the administration of the plan. There
are no minimum funding requirements of these plans. The funding of these plans is based on gratuity fund’s actuarial
measurement framework set out in the funding policies of the plan. These actuarial measurements are similar compared
to the assumptions set out in (vii) supra. An insignificant portion of the gratuity plan of the group attributable to
subsidiary companies is administered by the respective subsidiary companies and is funded through insurer managed
funds. A part of the gratuity plan is unfunded and managed within the group. Further, it also includes amounts payable
in respect of the Group’s foreign operations which result in gratuity payable to employees engaged as per the local laws
of country of operation. Employees do not contribute to any of these plans.
(B) Post-retirement medical care 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. The plan is unfunded. Employees do not contribute to the plan.
413
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [45] (contd.)
(C) Pension plan:
In addition to contribution to state-managed pension plan (EPS scheme), the Group 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. The plan is unfunded. Employees do not contribute to the plan.
(D) Trust managed provident fund plan:
The Parent Company and a few subsidiaries manage provident fund plan through a provident fund trust for its
employees which is permitted under The Employees’ Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. The plan
mandates contribution by employer at a fixed percentage of employee’s salary. Employees also contribute to the plan at
a fixed percentage of their salary as a minimum contribution and additional sums at their discretion. The plan 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
recognised 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 recognised as expense or income in the period in which such loss/
gain occurs.
All the above defined benefit plans expose the Group to general actuarial risks such as interest rate risk and market
(investment) risk.

(c) Revenue contributed by any single customer in any of the operating segments, whether reportable or otherwise, does not exceed

Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [46] (contd.)
(e) Segment reporting: basis of identifying operating segments, reportable segments and definition of each reportable segment:
(i)
Basis of identifying Operating segments:
Operating segments are identified as those components of the groups (a) that engage in business activities to earn revenues
and incur expenses (including transactions with any of the group’s other components); (b) whose operating results are
regularly reviewed by the Group’s Corporate Executive Management to make decisions about resource allocation and
performance assessment; and (c) for which discrete financial information is available.
The group has eight reportable segments as described under “segment composition” below which are the group’s
independent businesses. The nature of products and services offered by these businesses are different and are managed
separately given the different sets of technology and competency requirements. In arriving at the reportable segment, the
six operating segments have been aggregated and reported as “infrastructure segment” as these operating segments have
similar economic characteristics in terms of long term average gross margins, nature of the products and services, type of
customers, methods used to distribute the products and services and the nature of regulatory environment applicable to
them.
(ii) Reportable segments
An operating segment is classified as Reportable segment if reported revenue (including inter-segment revenue) or absolute
amount of result or assets exceed 10% or more of the combined total of all the operating segments.
(iii) Performance of a segment is measured based on segment profit (before interest and tax), as included in the internal
management reports that are reviewed by the Group’s Corporate Executive Management. The performance of financial
services segment and finance lease activities of power development segment are measured based on segment profit (before
tax) after deducting the interest expense.

The Group regularly reviews its foreign exchange forward and option positions and interest rate swaps, both on a standalone
basis and in conjunction with its underlying foreign currency and interest rate related exposures. The Group follows cash flow
hedge accounting for Highly Probable Forecasted Exposures (HPFE) hence the movement in mark to market (MTM) of the hedge
contracts undertaken for such exposures is likely to be offset by contra movements in the underlying exposures values. However,
till the point of time the HPFE becomes an on balance sheet exposure, the changes in MTM of the hedge contracts will impact the
Balance Sheet of the Group. Further, given the effective horizons of the Group’s risk management activities which coincide with
the durations of the projects under execution and could extend across 3-4 years and the business uncertainties associated with
the timing and estimation of the project exposures, the recognition of the gains and losses related to these instruments may not

NOTE [56] (contd.)
always coincide with the timing of gains and losses related to the underlying economic exposures and, therefore, may affect the
Group’s financial condition and operating results. Hence, the Group monitors the potential risk arising out of the market factors
like exchange rates, interest rates, price of traded investment products etc. on a regular basis. For on balance sheet exposures, the
Group monitors the risks on net unhedged exposures.
(i)
Foreign exchange rate risk:
In general, the Group is a net receiver of foreign currency. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates, and in particular a
strengthening of the Indian Rupee, will negatively affect the Group’s net sales and gross margins as expressed in Indian
Rupee. There is a risk that the Group may have to adjust local currency product pricing due to competitive pressures when
there have been significant volatility in foreign currency exchange rates.
The Group may enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts with financial institutions to protect against foreign
exchange risks associated with certain existing assets and liabilities, certain firmly committed transactions, forecasted future
cash flows and net investments in foreign subsidiaries. In addition, the Group has entered, and may enter in the future, into
non-designated foreign currency contracts to partially offset the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on its foreign
denominated debt issuances. The Group’s practice is to hedge a portion of its material net foreign exchange exposures with
tenors in line with the project/business life cycle. However, the Group may choose not to hedge certain foreign exchange
exposures for a variety of reasons.
The net exposure to foreign currency risk (based on notional amount) in respect of recognised financial assets and recognised
financial liabilities and derivatives is as follows:

To provide a meaningful assessment of the foreign currency risk associated with the Group’s foreign currency derivative
positions against off-balance sheet exposures and unhedged portion of on-Balance Sheet financial assets and liabilities,
the Group uses a multi-currency correlated value-at-risk (“VAR”) model. The VAR model uses a Monte Carlo simulation
to generate thousands of random market price paths for foreign currencies against Indian Rupee taking into account the
correlations between them. The VAR is the expected loss in value of the exposures due to overnight movement in spot
exchange rates, at 95% confidence interval. The VAR model is not intended to represent actual losses but is used as a risk
estimation tool. The model assumes normal market conditions and is a historical best fit model. Because the Group uses
foreign currency instruments for hedging purposes, the loss in fair value incurred on those instruments are generally offset
by increase in the fair value of the underlying exposures for on-Balance Sheet exposures. The overnight VAR for the Group at
95% confidence level is R 64.58 crore as at March 31, 2018 and R 75.07 crore as at March 31, 2017.
Actual future gains and losses associated with the Group’s investment portfolio and derivative positions may differ materially
from the sensitivity analysis performed as at March 31, 2018 due to the inherent limitations associated with predicting the
timing and amount of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the Group’s actual exposures and position.

(ii)
Interest rate risk:
The Group’s exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s outstanding floating rate debt and lending.
The Group’s outstanding debt in local currency is a combination of fixed rate and floating rate. For the portion of local
currency debt on fixed rate basis, there is no interest rate risk. For the portion of local currency debt on floating rate basis,
there is a natural hedge with receivables in respect of financial services business. There is a portion of debt that is linked
to international interest rate benchmarks like LIBOR. The Group also hedges a portion of these risks by way of derivatives
instruments like interest rate swaps and currency swaps.
The exposure of the Group’s borrowing to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period are as follows:

The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and by having access to funding through
an adequate amount of committed credit lines. Given the need to fund diverse businesses, the Group maintains flexibility in
funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines to meet obligations when due. Management regularly monitors
the position of cash and cash equivalents vis-à-vis projections. Assessment of maturity profiles of financial assets and financial
liabilities including debt financing plans and maintenance of Balance Sheet liquidity ratios are considered while reviewing the
liquidity position.
The Group’s investment policy and strategy are focused on preservation of capital and supporting the Group’s liquidity
requirements. The Group uses a combination of internal and external management to execute its investment strategy and achieve
its investment objectives. The Group typically invests in money market funds, large debt funds, Government of India securities,
equity and equity marketable securities and other highly rated securities under a limits framework which governs the credit
exposure to any one issuer as defined in its investment policy. The policy requires investments generally to be investment grade,
with the primary objective of minimising the potential risk of principal loss. To provide a meaningful assessment of the price risk
associated with the Group’s investment portfolio, the Group performed a sensitivity analysis to determine the impact of change in
prices of the securities that would have on the value of the investment portfolio assuming a 0.50% movement in debt funds and
debt securities and a 5% movement in the NAV of the equity and equity marketable securities. Based on the investment position
a hypothetical 0.50% change in the fair market value of debt securities would result in a value change of +/- R 24.17 crore as at
March 31, 2018 and +/- R 33.07 crore as at March 31, 2017. A 5% change in the equity funds NAV would result in a value change
of +/- R 17.19 crore as at March 31, 2018 and +/- R 19.39 crore as at March 31, 2017 respectively. The investments in money
market funds are for the purpose of liquidity management only and are held only overnight and hence not subject to any material
price risk.
(c) Credit risk management:
(i)
Financial service business:
Financial services business has a risk management framework that monitors and ensures that the business lines operate within
the defined risk appetite and risk tolerance levels as defined by the senior management. Risk Management function is closely
443
Notes forming part of the Consolidated Financial Statements (contd.)
NOTE [56] (contd.)
involved in management and control of credit risk, portfolio monitoring, market risks including liquidity risk and operational
risks. The credit risk function independently evaluates proposals based on well-established sector specific internal frameworks,
in order to identify, mitigate and allocate risks as well as to enable risk-based pricing of assets. Regulatory and process risks
are identified, mitigated and managed by a separate Group. Risk management policies are made under the guidance of Risk
Management Committee and are approved by Board of Directors.”
(ii) Other than financial service business:
The Group’s customer profile include public sector enterprises, state owned companies and large private corporates.
Accordingly, the Group’s customer credit risk is low. The Group’s average project execution cycle is around 24 to 36 months.
General payment terms include mobilisation advance, monthly progress payments with a credit period ranging from 45 to 90
days and certain retention money to be released at the end of the project. In some cases retentions are substituted with bank/
corporate guarantees. The Group has a detailed review mechanism of overdue customer receivables at various levels within
organisation to ensure proper attention and focus for realization.

Disclosure pursuant to Ind AS 8 “Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors” on new Ind AS that has been issued
but is not effective as of the closing day of the reporting period:
(a)
Ind AS 115 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified Ind AS 115 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” in respect of accounting periods
commencing on or after April 1, 2018 superseding Ind AS 11 “Construction Contracts” and Ind AS 18 “Revenue”.
The Group’s current revenue recognition policy is broadly aligned to the principles enunciated in Ind AS 115 and does not require
any material change except for realty business. In terms of Ind AS 115, revenue of realty business will be recognised at the time
of delivery of units to the customers as compared to revenue recognition based on percentage completion method currently
followed as per the Guidance note issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. The management is in the process
of implementing Ind AS 115 and does not expect any material impact on the Group’s financial position as at March 31, 2018 and
on the financial results of the Group in the first year of implementation viz. financial year commencing on April 1, 2018 except as
above.
(b)
Ind AS 21 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”
On March 28, 2018, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2018
and inserted Appendix B, Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration in Ind AS 21.
In Appendix B, it is clarified that the date of transaction to determine the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of related
asset, expense or income is the date on which the initial recognition of the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising
from the payment or receipt of advance consideration.
The Group’s existing accounting policy conforms to the above clarification.

Notes:
1. Significant influence is demonstrated by holding 20% or more of the total voting power, or control of or participation in business decisions under an
agreement of the investee.
2. The Incorporated joint venture is not required to be audited as per regulatory laws in Iran. Hence the management certified accounts have been considered
for consolidation.
3. There is restriction on transferring the resources to the share holder and hence the same has not been considered for consolidation.
4. The associate company is under liquidation process and investment is fully provided in the accounts.
