Notes:

 

1. The Company had issued Convertible Alternate Reference Securities (CARS) for an aggregate principal amount of US$ 875 mn in September 2007. The Company invited holders of the CARS to offer to exchange their holdings for 4.5% Convertible Bonds due in 2014. The offer closed on November 16, 2009 and Convertible Bonds worth US$ 546.94 mn were issued in exchange of CARS having face value of US$ 493 mn. The 4.5% Convertible Bonds are convertible at Rs. 605.5325 at US$/INR rate of 46.36 at any time on or after December 31, 2009 and up to the close of business on November 11, 2014. The aggregate principal amount of CARS remaining outstanding after this exchange is US$ 382 mn.

 

2. The actuarial gains and losses on funds for employee benefits (pension plans) of Tata Steel Europe Limited for the period from April 1, 2008 have been accounted in "Reserves and Surplus" in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS principles and permitted by Accounting Standard 21. This treatment is consistent with the accounting principles followed by Tata Steel Europe and earlier by Corus Group plc under IFRS. Had the company recognised changes in actuarial valuations of pension plans of Tata Steel Europe in the profit and loss account, the consolidated loss after taxes, minority interest and share of profit of associates for the nine months ended December 31, 2009 would have been higher by Rs. 2,464.35 crores (profit for the quarter would have been lower by Rs. 181.81 crores) and the consolidated profit after taxes, minority interest and share of profit of associates for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 would have been lower by Rs. 8,204.14 crores (lower by Rs. 3,851.79 crores for the quarter ended December 31, 2008). 

 

3. The Company and its Indian subsidiaries have adopted the Companies (Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules 2009 relating to Accounting Standard AS11 during the last quarter of 2008-09. Accordingly, an exchange translation gain of Rs. 36.46 crores (Rs. 12.60 crores for the quarter) has been adjusted to the carrying value of capital assets during the nine months ended December 31, 2009 and Rs. 163.71 crores (Rs. 153.71 crores for the quarter) being amortization of cumulative net loss has been charged to profit & loss account. The amortization includes a charge of Rs. 185.01 crores for debt instruments prematurely extinguished during the current quarter. Had the Company and its Indian subsidiaries followed the previous practice of recognizing the translation gain / loss in the profit & loss account, the consolidated loss after taxes, minority interest and share of profit of associates for the nine months ended December 31, 2009 would have been lower by Rs. 506.32 crores (profit for the quarter would have been higher by Rs. 219.23 crores).

 

4. The Company changed its accounting policy for accounting of derivatives from April 1, 2009, in the consolidated accounts. In the absence of any operative Indian Accounting Standard on the subject, changes in fair value of outstanding derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges against firm commitments and highly probable forecast transactions which were hitherto accounted in the profit & loss account have now been accounted in "Reserves & Surplus" in accordance with IFRS principles and the proposed Accounting Standard AS30. Had the Company not changed the policy, the consolidated loss after taxes, minority interest and share of profit of associates for the nine months ended December 31, 2009 would have been higher by Rs. 79.68 crores ( profit for the quarter would have been higher by Rs. 379.33 crores).

 

5. Figures for the previous period have been regrouped and reclassified to conform to the classification of the current period, wherever necessary.

 

6. The above results have been reviewed by the Audit Committee and were approved by the Board of Directors in their meeting of date.
