Letter to Shareholders

Dear Fellow Investors,

You may be pleased to know that your Company, once again, posted record earnings per share, profit after tax and free cash flow. Our year-on-year growth in revenue, EBITDA and profit after tax on a standalone basis are 32%, 39% and 35%, respectively, and on a consolidated basis are 31%, 48% and 50%, respectively.

Our consolidated profit after tax improved to a record Rs. 208 crores at a margin of 12.5%, up from 11% last year. We generated record cash flows from operations of Rs. 246 crores during the year, bringing our cash and cash equivalents balances to Rs. 609 crores. We improved our Return on Human Capital by 14%. We continue to operate and govern ourselves, to the degree we can, like any listed public company.

To take this further, the board instituted quarterly interim dividends. For the year under review, the board proposes increasing the overall dividend pay-out to a record 160%, i.e. a dividend of Rs. 16 per share (Rs. 9 interim + Rs. 7 final), an improvement of 33% over last year’s pay-out.

How did we achieve these results? How are we innovating to meet the needs of future markets? How are we contributing to the communities we serve? And what are our key challenges for 2012-13?

We expanded delivery capacity to increase offshore revenue by 66%. For the first time, we are now operating from a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) called Blue Ridge, near our campus in Hinjawadi. We have 569 engineers and IT professionals based there, providing services to key OEMs outside India. We also expanded capabilities in our existing facilities in Bangalore and Bangkok.

We have now instituted a cross functional Employee Experience Leadership Team (EeLT) to enhance every employee’s experience and growth within the Company. EeLT comprises leaders from delivery, sales, human resources and finance. It drives improved business performance and employee engagement through a set of formal initiatives measured by improvement in return on human capital (ROHC).

We are pleased to announce that our COO, Warren Harris, has completed the Harvard Advanced Management Program (AMP). Almost 1,466 of our professionals completed e-learning courses from Harvard. The senior leadership team also underwent formal assessment by an external agency to help us with career planning and creation of development programs. All this is part of our effort to strengthen the senior leadership team’s capabilities in an ever-challenging global business environment.

“ The year was one of innovation and growth, delivering record revenue, profit, earnings per share and cash while innovating transformational products.”

We enhanced our SAP IT system to allow us to implement scalable robust HR processes. Employees and managers across the globe now interact with the system through a self-service portal. We will continue to enhance these systems as we move forward.

Better Innovation

Expanding our Better Innovation offering i.e. the application of frugal engineering and lean design to create breakthrough products, we challenged ourselves to design and engineer a fuel-efficient, environmentally-friendly, street-legal, electric car that can comfortably and safely accommodate a family of four. The result, called eMO for Electric MObility, debuted at the Detroit North American International Automotive Show. I often struggle to find good examples of your Company’s work, as most are client confidential and cannot be disclosed. So this time, I am especially happy to present eMO. As you learn more from this report, www.betterinnovation.com and from outside reports, you can get an appreciation of the work your Company does and its growth in capability that go far beyond the technical services for which we are known.

In the year under review, we enhanced our position in automotive, industrial machinery and aerospace sectors growing key accounts and adding new logos. Our customers continued to benefit through the application of frugal engineering and lean design to create breakthrough products. Our enterprise solutions team helped customers realize value through optimized ERP, supply chain and customer relationship management systems.

Your Company continued to file patents in Engineering & Design and Product Lifecycle Management. You may enjoy reading more about some of these achievements in the Management Discussion and Analysis section of this Annual Report.

Corporate Sustainability

Your Company continued to create jobs - up 10% in NA, 22% in UK and 19% in Asia Pacific. As part of our DNA we are committed to improve the quality of life in the communities we operate. From our earliest days, we create jobs and hire in the communities we operate. To help improve the number of qualified engineering graduates, our program called “Ready Engineer™”, is expanding to the UK and then to the US. This program is staffed by subject matter experts from Tata Technologies. Students in the Ready Engineer™

®program receive training on-line via iGET IT , www.myigetit.com, and in the classroom from Tata Technologies volunteers.

Despite their work pressures, our employees across the world engage in a lot of volunteer work, social causes and programs - from planting trees to donating blood, supporting shelters for the homeless, Jeans Friday,

Running for Hope and First Book, to name a few.

Challenges for 2012-13

Externally, there are uncertainties regarding the US presidential elections and the economic situation in Europe. This may bring increased emotion and possible limitations to offshoring. Volatility in the EU may limit the ability of our customers to commit to projects.

Internally, we have ambitious growth targets. We are re-engineering our sales force to be able to improve the identification of customers and projects where we can deliver long-term value. There is a global shortage of engineering talent. We need to continue to develop senior leaders through our Talent Pool program. We need to automate more of our internal processes so we can scale up efficiently. These changes to accommodate our growth are challenging. We have faced challenges before. I have no doubt that we will succeed.

In Summary

Your Company has delivered solid growth, record earnings per share and generated record cash. Our program called Better Innovation creates even more exciting products. We continue to move up the value chain, utilize more of your Company’s own intellectual property in our solutions and develop skills faster.

Five years ago, on 31 March 2007, the first full year of operations following the acquisition of INCAT, we ended with consolidated earnings per share (EPS) of Rs. 4.6 per share. Today our EPS has grown, even after taking additional capital, to Rs. 49.29 per share, a growth of 11 times in 5 years. Thus your Company delivered a five year compounded annual earnings growth of 61% on per share basis. In the same period, the Sensex 30 companies grew their per share earnings by 12% on a compounded basis.

I hope you will join me in thanking the 5,443 dedicated men and women who make up the Tata Technologies family. They are the ones responsible for our achievements and I am sure you will join me in appreciating their efforts.

I thank you for your continuing trust and support and I look forward to seeing you at the AGM, interacting with you and hearing any valuable suggestions you may have to help your Company become better and more profitable.

Letter from the COO

Dear Shareholders,

Five years ago, we set about transforming our business to create a more high-growth, proactive, and innovative Tata Technologies. Those efforts delivered significant progress and we built an integrated global company with fully aligned sales, marketing, and delivery functions. Additionally, we built a comprehensive global delivery capability that offers clients, skills and resources wherever they operate, with access to capacity in geographies with scale and competitive price points. We also balanced our portfolio of services around three lines of business: Engineering, Product Lifecycle Management and Enterprise IT Services.

As I write to you today, we have undertaken a bold, ambitious challenge – to, within the next five years, achieve $1 billion in revenue and position Tata Technologies as the number-one engineering services organization in the world. We are moving forward with this plan under the banner, “One To Win.” Because of our previous work in aligning and balancing the organization worldwide, a palpable sense of commitment, as well as a spirit of achievement permeates the organization as we move together toward these lofty – but eminently achievable – goals.

Today, Tata Technologies is delivering outstanding financial and operational performance with steady improvements to operating margins and free cash flow. We increased profitability by fine-tuning operations, skillfully managing expenses, and improving our cost structure.

Fiscal 2012 was a year of strong growth and continued momentum in our business. We focused on the execution of an aggressive growth agenda, and our results demonstrate that we performed extremely well. We achieved strong topline and bottom-line growth, meeting or exceeding-in some cases significantly-all elements of our original fiscal 2012 annual financial budget. Specifically, we posted:

• Our highest-ever annual revenues, of $348 million, an increase of 25percent in US dollar terms

• Improvement in operating margins by 206 basis

points to a record 18.3%. Over the past five years, our operating margins have improved by 1268 basis points.

• PAT that has increased 11fold in that same period

• A strengthened balance sheet reflecting a cash & cash equivalents balance of $120Mn, up from $64Mn for the previous year

While we are very proud of our results in fiscal 2012, we will continue to sharpen the execution of our growth strategy, which will be particularly important given the uncertain global economic outlook.

Of course, our top priority remains our clients-and helping them achieve high performance. The caliber of our clients, who include many of the best automotive, aerospace and industrial machinery companies globally, together with the depth and longevity of our relationships with them, are key differentiators for Tata Technologies and speak of our ability to deliver real business value year after year. We are proud that our top five clients in fiscal 2012 have been clients for at least ten years.

E i g h t e e n t h A n n u a l R e p o r t 2 0 1 1 - 1 2 IV

Page 8: Annual Report 2011 2012 Web

In fiscal 2012, we continued to attract new clients and expand relationships with existing clients. For example, we are helping

• a North American automotive OEM to migrate its digital design data from a legacy product lifecycle management (PLM) system to its next generation platform;

• Tara Aerospace Systems – a JV between Tata Advanced Systems, Sikorsky Aircraft and Nova Integrated Systems (a Tata enterprise), to manufacture the S-92® helicopter cabin for Sikorsky in India;

• Carnegie Mellon University to develop and teach a graduate level course on product design using our proprietary knowledge management platform

®iGET IT ;

• a North American industrial machinery company apply frugal engineering principles to its product portfolio for the emerging markets and

• establish an Offshore Simulation Center (OSC) for a S c a n d i n a v i a n c o n s t r u c t i o n e q u i p m e n t manufacturer at a new facility in Bangalore.

Our focus is on helping clients address critical business trends, such as globalization, product development productivity and capacity, innovation and operational excellence, while serving the full spectrum of their needs.

Our success in fiscal 2012 was due in large part to the focused execution of our growth strategy-which is about driving sustainable and profitable growth through Industry differentiation, technology leadership and building scale.

We continued to invest to serve all industries; but we prioritized our investments where we saw specific opportunities to separate ourselves from our competitors. For instance, in FY 2012, your company established itself as a world leader in the full vehicle development space, with the worldwide unveiling of eMO, our groundbreaking EV study, at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, in January of this year. This was a landmark moment for your company and a coming of age of Indian engineering, establishing Tata Technologies as the only India-based engineering services organization capable of delivering a full vehicle program such as this.

Additionally, our Vehicle Programs & Development Group has won, or has underway, multiple full-vehicle programs – and is providing innovative, cost-effective and environmentally sound automotive solutions to global automotive OEMs ranging from premium brands to entrepreneurial organizations aiming at niche markets. Our entry into the industrial machinery sector was quickly validated when we won additional projects

from a North American equipment manufacturer, including a tear-down and benchmarking project in China jointly delivered onsite by our team members from Singapore, India and North America.

In fiscal 2012, we continued to expand our capabilities and offerings across a broad range of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and enterprise IT platforms. We fully certified 4 and partially certified 18 engineers in Dassault Systèmes’ next generation CATIA® and ENOVIA® V6 platforms. We have also launched a dedicated 120 seat Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Delivery Center in Thane, India, as part of an aggressive ramp-up that we are planning in this area.

In fiscal 2012, we expanded our workforce, growing our headcount by 18 percent, to 5443 people. To accommodate these additions we have invested heavily in delivery and service infrastructure by opening an all-new 550+ seat Delivery Center in Pune and launching a 75-seat Delivery Center in Bangalore.

And we invested significantly in the training and professional development of our people to ensure that all of our employees have the necessary skills to serve our clients at the highest level. For instance we launched an online soft skills learning program – iSMART – in partnership with Harvard, to make career-enhancing training available to our employees in a convenient format. This fiscal year we will also graduate the second batch from our Talent Pool program to further enhance the leadership bandwidth in our company. Already, 25 future leaders have graduated from this program, and most of them have been assigned to new positions of responsibility that are intended to prepare them for executive leadership assignments in the years to come.

In fiscal 2012, we also strengthened our commitment to running Tata Technologies as a high-performance business. We expanded the use of our Global Delivery approach to optimize delivery across our broad range of services, and we further streamlined internal operations as part of our ongoing focus on business excellence. This was recognized during our annual Tata Business Excellence Model (TBEM) assessment, with Tata Technologies progressing to the ‘Good Performance’ band – a major milestone for our company and a testament to the investment that we have made in the internal balance sheet of our company.

We also remain highly committed to the communities in which we live and work through our corporate sustainability efforts. Most notable is our on-site water and waste recycling facility at our Center for Advanced Engineering and Design in Hinjawadi, our Ready Engineer™ program that promotes technical education for engineering students in India, our alliance with First Book in North America to promote literacy at the elementary school level and – equally important – our

commitment to engineering environmentally responsible products, highlighted by the worldwide debut of the Tata Technologies eMO Electric Vehicle study, which you will read about later in this Annual Report.

My thanks to all our shareholders, who have demonstrated their ongoing support for our organization in fiscal year 2012. I also want to thank the men and women of Tata Technologies around the world for their hard work, discipline and dedication to our clients this past year, without which our success would not have been possible. Through the focused execution

Redefining our brand,showcasing our capabilities

eMO breaks new groundfor Tata Technologies

More than 770,000 auto enthusiasts, including thousands of auto industry professionals and the world's automotive press, attended the 2012 North American International Auto Show in Detroit this January – and most got a chance to check out an all-new electric vehicle study from a new player on the scene.

Tata Technologies unveiled its eMO, and showgoers could hardly miss it. Positioned in the lobby of Detroit's Cobo Center at the Michelin Challenge Design “City 2046” display highlighting the future of personal transportation, the eMO – which stands for electric MObility – drew considerable attention. A futuristic design and breakthrough features were eye openers. C o m f o r t a b l e , p r a c t i c a l , f u e l - e f f i c i e n t a n d environmentally friendly, eMO is the right size for urban transport - easy to park, yet seating four adults comfortably, with a back seat able to be converted into substantial cargo space.

It's innovative. While working on the study, Tata Technologies developed fresh intellectual property and has 15 patents in process.

And it's designed to be affordable; its estimated manufacturer's suggested retail price is $20,000 (US), and that's without any federal or state government incentives.

But for industry analysts, the big news was the

emergence of Tata Technologies as an unexpected entrant in the full-vehicle development arena.

In India, this is officially the Decade of Innovation, as declared by the country's president. In 2010, at a summit meeting of the country's leading engineering companies, a bold prediction was made: Within 10 years, an Indian engineering firm would develop the capability to deliver a complete vehicle.

Enter Tata Technologies. Since 1981, Tata Technologies professionals have been contributing engineering, design and IT services to the world’s leading automotive and aerospace manufacturers and their suppliers. Headquartered in Singapore, with regional offices in the United States (Novi, Michigan), India (Pune) and the United Kingdom (Coventry), Tata Technologies has a work force of more than 5,443 employees serving clients worldwide.

In its three decades of providing pragmatic solutions for a growing number of successful automakers and aerospace companies, Tata Technologies had developed a growing reputation for competence and innovation, and for an unmatched mastery of frugal engineering. In 2010, the company was ready to take its next step - the formation of a Vehicle Programs & Development (VPD) group.

REDEFINING OUR COMPANY

IX

Page 12: Annual Report 2011 2012 Web

E i g h t e e n t h A n n u a l R e p o r t 2 0 1 1 - 1 2

- Kevin Fisher(President of the Vehicle Programs and Development group)

VPD was created as a strategic realignment of Tata Technologies' engineering leadership and its team of professionals worldwide. It was a change designed to adapt to a changing world. As the automotive industry was emerging from a global recession, the demand for new, highly differentiated products was increasing, placing an unprecedented burden on the automakers' limited product and manufacturing engineering resources. The automakers now were seeking experienced, proven engineering partners to meet these demands. They also needed partners with an eye toward innovation - a fresh view - to achieve success.

The experience and global reach of Tata Technologies placed the company in a unique position to rise to the challenge. Creating the new Vehicle Programs & Development team was a first step. The next step: showcasing the capabilities of the newly organized team.

In the summer of 2010, in anticipation of launching the Vehicle Programs & Development group, Tata Technologies decided to create a complete vehicle as an internal engineering study. As a company with a history of dedicating its resources to specific client needs, this was a shift in gears.

The group considered numerous concepts. The objectives were to highlight the company's focus on sustainability, as well as its global experience, knowledge, capacity, innovation and frugal engineering capabilities across its portfolio of services, which cover the entire product development cycle, including:

• Product and Market Definition

• Concepts and Styling

• Vehicle Architecture

• Knowledge-Based Modeling

• Engineering and Design

• Digital Validation

• Prototype and Testing

• Manufacturing Solutions

The team started by reviewing relevant media on electric vehicles. "We found very mixed results, ranging from huge optimism to abject pessimism and everything in between," says Kevin Fisher, President of the Vehicle Programs & Development group. There was

THE BIRTH OF THE eMO

much to study, including a plethora of concepts and reams of data, as well as local and governmental incentives and infrastructure.

"We studied and considered what type of electric vehicle is required for different uses, each having a specific purpose and goal," says Fisher. "We dissected demographics, identifying who would be interested in each segment, determining what innovation and technologies we could bring to this market, with an overall objective of producing a concept that would be a cost effective electric vehicle."

This analysis led to a combined product and process design to balance the following areas:

• vehicle cost of ownership and use

• innovation and technology

• consumer features and space.

The research also led to a focus on a city or "New Urban" electric vehicle with an emphasis on the design following the functionality and use of the vehicle. Keeping a low cost of ownership was a priority.

"We believe that most vehicles on the market are actually oversized and over specified for the consumer’s daily use," says Fisher. "Our objective was to find the right size for this type of electric vehicle with the appropriate range and speed, without reducing safety and daily usability."

To sum it up, Fisher said the eMO reflects Tata Technologies' unique multidimensional approach, its DNA of innovation, as well as its intimate understanding of the demands of both developed and developing markets. The vehicle also benefits from the company's global delivery model and its proprietary Knowledge-Based Engineering platforms to develop products faster and more cost-effectively.

“We believe this engineering study shows a very pragmatic, innovative and cost-feasible solution for daily-use electric vehicles in a new urban environment," says Fisher. "And we believe the market exists for a vehicle demonstrating this intelligent combination of performance, safety, function, price and environmental responsibility."

But there's more to come. "This study is the first in a series of thought-provoking concepts to showcase our capabilities across the current and future automotive landscape," he added.

BACK TO THE FUTURE

eMO STORIES

Flash back to the prediction that an Indian-based engineering firm would develop a complete vehicle before 2020. Tata Technologies achieved the feat eight years early.

"The eMO project symbolizes a coming of age of Indian automotive engineering," said Warren Harris, Tata Technologies President and Chief Operating Officer. "It's a tangible example of the capability of Tata Technologies to deliver a full vehicle."

Will the eMO be mass produced? That's a question yet to be answered. "We developed it strictly as an engineering study with no particular automaker in mind," says Fisher.

Meanwhile, the company's Vehicle Programs & Development group continues to apply its innovative approach and frugal engineering capabilities in service of a wide range of clients with more than 300 engineers operating from four automotive centers of excellence worldwide - Detroit, Coventry, Pune and Stuttgart. Says Fisher: "We have the talent, ideas, and ability to anticipate client and market needs. We're ready to help our current and future clients rise to meet their next global challenges."

Reflections on the eMO project by key team members who brought the vehicle to life.

MY STORY

by Kevin Fisher, President, Vehicle Programs & Development, Novi, Michigan, USA

"I think the eMO speaks for itself. I would like to think that this could be a catalyst to bring about a difference on how the market perceives Tata Technologies – and how we perceive ourselves.

"Since our first brainstorming session, we kept our focus – to create a sustainable mobility concept for city use, offering high value to consumers at a disruptive price point through innovative technology.

"Throughout the development process, we established many new best practices and, importantly, the team reaffirmed a belief that we can take on many complex challenges.

"I am very proud of our achievements, and it's a very gratifying feeling to see the pride in eMO in our employees around the world.

"As we were in the final stages of producing the prototype, my mother and father had come to see our family for a vacation. On several occasions, they came to see the construction of the vehicle, upon which they gave me their feedback, which was positive and helpful. There are not many times that you can involve your family in your programs.

"The project was intense, and I'm fortunate to have the support of my wife and children who have endured my obsession with executing this program to the highest level.

"And a large thanks to everyone on the Tata Technologies eMO team. You never know where this could lead.”

MY STORY

by Casey Mehta, Senior Consultant -- Business Partnership, Novi, Michigan, USA

"The eMO project was very satisfying to me. Having 35 years of automotive experience, I got an opportunity to apply my cumulative knowledge, skills and experience honed over the years.

"My primary role was supplier relations and procurement, but my involvement went far beyond that. I handled all commercial negotiations worth more than $1 million (US), including the supplier contract to build the final drivable eMO. I was able to help us come in $100,000 under budget.

"I also helped develop the business case for eMO, taking into account potential customer profiles, product volume and mix scenarios, options and features, non-traditional approaches to marketing and distribution, project investment, variable piece prices and the targeted retail price. I created various models of operating costs over a five-year period to demonstrate the savings offered by eMO over a traditional car.

"The most challenging part of the project was convincing suppliers to get involved. Tata Technologies is not an OEM, so why would a supplier work with us if there is no production business expected at project completion? It took good deal of skill to convince a few key suppliers to participate.

"I think the best part of the project was our unconventional approach to problem solving. To solve the big problems of tomorrow, we had to develop a strong sense of imagination for the future of mobility. So, in a way, we all had to become futurists in our scenario planning and execution.

"Being a part of the eMO team meant working closely together with a wide variety of people from different backgrounds around the world to find solutions for every problem encountered along the way.

"It was truly a team effort - and a fulfilling one. Seeing a concept on paper develop into a real car was especially rewarding."

MY STORY

by Nigel Giddons, Chief Engineer - Vehicle Architecture, Novi, Michigan USA

“It's very rare to conceptualize a vehicle from a blank sheet of paper. So often, vehicles are based around an amount of existing architecture or systems. This one started from nothing.

"Secondly, as a service organization, we are often engaged to bring to fruition the products that are ultimately based upon the ideas, opinions and decisions of our clients. This one was all ours. The team had a tremendous feeling of ownership in our little car. There was no one to blame if we didn't succeed.

"My personal pride was in balancing the huge amount of creative ideas and opinions coming from within our

team of what eMO should be. It was a fantastic collective. I was honored to lead such an enthusiastic group of highly skilled technicians.

"The challenge of the project was that it was only us. So often in an endeavor this large and complex we have the chance to seek the advice and assistance of others to find the answers. Here there was no such option. We had to challenge ourselves more than ever before.

"If you're like me, and you grow up with a fascination and interest in history’s great innovative car designers such as Pinninfarina, Colin Chapman, Ferdinand Porsche, Alex Issigonis and Enzo Ferrari, and then you have the opportunity to try it yourself - that's a childhood dream come true. We conceptualized, designed, engineered and built a whole car. Not too many people get a chance to do something so grand.

"I'll never forget the first time I saw eMO in the flesh, resplendent as a tangible manifestation of all our efforts. It was our baby. It was love and pride at first sight."

MY STORY

by Peter Davis, Chief Designer -- Vehicle Design, Novi, Michigan USA

“It felt great to be part of a small collaborative endeavor working on the eMO, creating hundreds of ideas, knowing that only a few had the chance of going forward, but understanding that the tight interaction of other team members would pull the best ideas forward. My team’s extensive experience in aesthetic surface development helped move the styling forward

quickly without the use of expensive full-size clay development models. Years of experience in interior design and material usage enabled us to prioritize our problem-solving and direct our innovation toward the core objectives.

"I enjoy addressing challenges and creating solutions that are an appropriate balance of engineering and design, and I like proposing nontraditional ideas that evolve into solutions that are useful yet distinctive. The parts of the project that were the most gratifying were the 'Aha!' features - the center controls on the instrument panel, the panoramic glass with the sun visor, the windshield wipers, the rear window and tail light solutions.

"I remember when we finished the seating buck to evaluate spaciousness, outward visibility and ingress/egress, together we realized that the side openings were so large and accommodating that the rear seat could serve double-duty as a cargo area, eliminating the need for a rear hatch and a dedicated trunk. That was a breakthrough moment for the project, when problem and solution achieved an absolutely convincing logic.

“We displayed eMO at a university student center lobby during an electric vehicle conference. As students and faculty walked by, many took the time to comment or ask questions. I enjoyed seeing their expressions change, as the concept was explained and absorbed. Many said, 'I would buy that.' That was the ultimate satisfaction."

Helping racing legendsbe their best

Tata Technologies supports developmentof new super car

The builder of some of the most iconic sports cars in racing history was getting ready to create a limited run of million-dollar supercars. It found a partner with credentials just as lofty -- a partner that has made its mark on Formula One racing with numerous championships at motorsports' highest level.

As significant details of the project are yet to be announced, the major players in this story will remain anonymous – at least for now. But we are able to tell the story about Tata Technologies' role in this marriage of racing superpowers.

Putting two racing legends together sounds like a formula for success – but only if processes and systems are in place to ensure that both parties are operating at their best – or to borrow a racing term, on all cylinders.

To add value to this all-star collaboration, Tata Technologies was asked to assemble a small team of Vehicle Program Business Process Consultants to conduct an assessment.

On 2 November, 2011, the team, with Nigel Giddons as Project Manager, arrived at the scene of the partnership to initiate discussions with program leadership to identify immediate priorities.

A week later, the project scope was established: To redefine the processes and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) technologies that would support the program's data management requirements.

"A fundamental business imperative for product development is have access to a single and unambiguous version of the truth, be it good or bad," said Giddons. "This means that the basic elements of product description – computer-aided design (CAD), engineering, bill of material (BOM), cost, investment, weight and timing – on a part-by-part basis need to be in continuous alignment so that issues can be found, believed and acted upon."

The project took on the title “CAD/BOM Alignment."

Before Tata Technologies' project assessment, the partners were using an Excel spreadsheet to capture the BOM, with no connection to CAD. This limited the ability of program leaders to report upon status of program attributes. Change control was also an issue without any form of rigid approval or traceability. Under these circumstances, too much time was being expended debating the validity of data sets and the validity of results. A clear objective of the project was to put in place a far more capable solution.

The project title expanded to reflect a common objective: "CAD/BOM Alignment; Retirement of Excel BOM."

The project was under considerable time pressures - a two-month first prototype build phase was slated to begin in late April 2012. Implementing any solution during this phase would be a concern, but so would entering such a phase with a low level of data confidence. The need for speed was an emphasized client requirement, presenting an enormous challenge.

The Tata Technologies team was up for this challenge. Giddons, technical leads Anoop Sharma, Douglas Schilling and Chris Stock assembled in mid-November to begin detailing the definitions and specifics of the business requirements and remained the prime client interface team until completion. They were supported by an extended team of solution architects and IT specialists in North America and around the world, developing, testing and validating the solution.

The full deployment was staged with a successful foundational deployment in early January. This step helped ensure delivery confidence and enabled early exposure of the full solution to the program. As final solution development and validation continued, Tata Technologies simultaneously trained 70 individuals at project headquarters and at remote supplier locations, preparing a team with supporting implementation material and at-elbow support. Several thousand existing part files had to be checked, repaired and transferred from legacy systems to new systems to support the implementation plan.

On 26 March, 2012 – just 146 days after the start of the engagement – the project went live, using a new, pragmatic, tangible business solution best described as a “Micro PLM (Product Lifecycle Management).”

Engineers now interface with a solution structuring CAD and BOM as one. Each part is now an item with selectable attribute data, including number, name and system ID standardization, cost, weight, model, prototype variant, build timing, make/buy analysis and supplier information. The solution includes embedded workflows that control approval and release processes. The highly efficient, user-friendly solution allows configurable data searching and report capabilities according to engineers and program management needs.

"The key is that the data these racing experts are working with is now complete, accessible, unambiguous, controlled - and believed," said Giddons.

That's a key to success of not just million-dollar supercars, but any major cross-functional product development effort.

MY STORY- by Nigel Giddons,Chief Engineer - Vehicle Architecture, Novi, Michigan USA

“I’ve been a Formula One fan for as long as I can remember. Tata Technologies certainly has my thanks for trusting me with the reins of a project that made me meet one of my childhood heroes. "I was especially honored to work with such an enthusiastic group of highly skilled technicians at one of the world’s leading motorsport organizations. My personal contribution was in leading the customer relationships, constructing the team and ensuring that deliverables, timing and commercial matters were understood by our team and customers alike. "During our first introductions to the working-level teams at both partners' facilities, it was clear that we were not known and thus not particularly welcome. The timing of the project was extremely challenging. Our own internal assessments even suggested it could not be done. But by sheer force of will and phenomenal efforts by the team, we met all requirements. "It was personally fulfilling to win over the customer and establish lasting relationships in short order by rapidly demonstrating our experience, capability, clear communication skills and enthusiasm. “Climbing a mountain higher than one felt possible is a fantastic feeling."

MY STORY- by Doug Schilling,Business Process Consultant, Novi, Michigan USA

“From my perspective, I feel most proud of the global teamwork that made the project a success in such a short period of time. "Since this was the first time our customers clients had engaged in a partnership of this type, there was very little in terms of defined process available at the onset of the project. But through discussions, interviews and analysis, we were able to determine the project's goals and business objectives, and then to define the processes accordingly. "We saw the challenge: The project team had been struggling for some time trying to keep the bill of materials on its Excel spreadsheet in sync with the CAD bill of materials. "I felt that my background in design, engineering and Teamcenter processes helped provide a basis for a thorough analysis of the project objectives and needs. I also enjoyed training the team in the new processes."We were happy that we could provide the functionality in Teamcenter to enable the team to retire the Excel bill of materials."As the project progressed, I couldn’t help but think how well the client relationship had developed. I could see the enthusiasm that was building around the final solution."It was great to work with such a dedicated team that included our leadership, project managers, developers and the customer -- and to see the client satisfaction that resulted from the team's efforts.“I felt privileged to be asked to participate in such a high-profile activity."

MY STORY- by Chris Stock,PLM Services Manager, Coventry, England

“I’ve been part of the supercar project since the start. We were working with a new client, so our challenge was to demonstrate our capability and value early on to build the level of trust needed to make the project a success. "My role was to provide guidance to help us capture what the client required from a engineer’s point of view."Because time was critical, the start of the project was especially challenging. We had to work extremely hard to quickly define the scope of the project based upon what the customer required. "Fortunately, this early challenge helped develop a close working relationship among the team members - and that close working relationship made a difference. It was rewarding to hear from our client that they were pleased with the solution we provided."We knew we were connecting well with our new client when we were provided a tour of our customer's personal collection of Formula One cars. We felt that we earned our client’s trust based on results."I was proud to be part of this project. It was truly a global effort, and it clearly showed how well Tata Technologies works as a global team."

MY STORY- by Anoop Sharma,Project Manager, Pune, India

“I've dedicated 11 years of my career to improving product development efficiency using Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). It was satisfying to apply that experience to help make the supercar partnership a success."On the project, I was able to tap into my experience in technical layout and solution definition, resource planning, solution development and deployment."We were happy to deliver quality results and to do so in 40 percent less time than expected. We were able to provide a packaged solution, and the fact that our client has requested source code of the solution shows that our client truly values it. "One of the client requirements was to keep cost data secure. It was a critical part of this project. That took some time, but we were able to deliver. Effective brainstorming within the team led to the perfect solution. “It was a challenging project, but I think we were able to clearly demonstrate Tata Technologies' PLM capabilities to a very important client - and that's important to our future."

The Concept of PassionateFun Loving Engineersor PFLE’s

Tata Technologies is a natural habitat for those who believe in the power of engineering to make the world a better place and have found the means to do so.

Good Morning Gentlemen. I completed a successful test in the new Boxster this weekend at Rockingham Raceway with TF Motorsport supporting. The baseline suspension setup was pretty good but predominantly under steer so we have a list of 'tweaks' to make to reduce this for the 1st race. The engine felt slightly down on power, prime suspect is a collapsed cat or leak in the induction system, not a majorconcern at this stage. And some oil surge issues which seem to be unique to the banked corners on the Rockingham oval, something to keep an eye on during the season.

Please see the link below for some in car footage.

Best Regards,Steve

An email like the one from Steve Brown would be perfectly normal had he been a professional race car driver. Steve’s profession is not car racing. Steve works at Tata Technologies in the UK as a Module Leader – Safety Components in an engineering team working on a clients’ vehicle program. In addition to his career at Tata Technologies, Steve has pursued a success in UK motorsport, securing the Porsche 924 Championship in 2011; and contending the Porsche Boxster championship in 2012, partially sponsored by Tata Technologies.

Steve is an example of what Tata Technologies calls its PFLEs or Passionate Fun Loving Engineers.

Very few companies have been able to truly merge passion with profession for its’ employees. When it happens, a group of people come to work and do what they believe in rather than any other way. Tata Technologies was born out of the need for a company in the Tata group exclusively focused on the design and engineering of exciting products.

surpasses all its’ peers. The results speak for themselves. Beginning in the late 1990s, the company has been trusted with high-end automotive engagements in offshore mode. More recently, the landmark Tata Nano project was manned jointly by Tata Technologies and Tata Motors engineers for sub-system, component and innovation that went into the new product. The Tata Technologies eMO (for electric MObility), a driveable engineering study created by engineers from the Tata Technologies Vehicle Programs& Development (VPD) group opened to rave reviews at the 2012 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. In the aerospace world, a small group of highly skilled and dedicated aerospace engineers from Tata Technologies’ JV with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (Tata HAL Technologies) became the first company in the Indian private sector to undertake a Joint Concept Development Program (JCDP) for an overseas business jet manufacturer.Engineers from Tata Technologies braved -40 degree C temperatures in a remote corner of China – all of them visiting there for the first time - to deliver on-time andon-budget for a completely new line of service for a client in the Industrial Machinery Industry.

A veteran of more than 25 years in the company, T N Umamaheshwaran, CTO, Tata Motors & S u b s i d i a r i e s , h a s t h e following printout in his office:

“Passion is something for which one would go the extra mile, put in the extra hours and take on extra responsibility.”

In the words of Group Chairman Ratan Tata; “This company would not mean all things to all people“. “This is a young company in a very exciting line of business, that not only has its’ place in India but across the world. We decided that this company would not be all things to all people, but would focus itself in the niche area of providing solutions to manufacturing companies. I would like to see Tata Technologies being acclaimed as one of the more innovative and successful design companies in the world”.

Clearly, the rationale for the formation of the company meant that it would attract employees who deeply believe in the power of engineering, including the creative use of virtual tools for product development.

And that is how a company that is called Tata Technologies becomes a place where a passionate group of engineers start finding meaning in the things that they do. Finding meaning also brings with it a freedom to experiment and brings to the forefront things that one likes doing – both as an extension of the professional in them and otherwise. That is the essence of a Passionate Fun Loving Engineer or a PFLE as we call it at Tata Technologies.

Tata Technologies’ business, albeit passion, is better and better product development that can benefit people and make the world a better place. Whereas in professional terms the company’s lines of business are Engineering & Design, Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Manufacturing Enterprise IT, the true meaning of these lines of business comes from the ingrained engineering passion and aptitude that lies within the heart of each Tata Technologies engineer.

It is the product that makes the company. At the core of any successful product development initiative anywhere and at anytime in the modern world, there is a set of people who want to make a difference. What drives them is their passion, what sustains their momentum is the organisational environment that can allow that passion to thrive. What ultimately achieves success is flawless execution that can only result from a deep technical understanding and experience. As a company that aspires to be the world’s no. 1 partner to the manufacturing industry and focusing on the Automotive, Aerospace and Industrial Machinery industries, Tata Technologies clearly stands at the meeting point of three powerful streams which are engineering passion, terrific opportunity in the industries it services and an understanding of the application of technology that

WHAT DOES THIS PASSION MEAN FOR BUSINESS?

K a ru n Ja co b who j o i n e d l a s t y e a r ’s Graduate Engineering Trainee batch has the following to say about why he joined Tata Technologies:“Tata Technologies was the dream company for us. When we had our campus placement season there were IT

companies giving high pay packets and wanting to hire mechanical engineers like me. However, a few other friends and I did not want to get away from our core domain and write software code for a bank or an insurance company. We wanted to apply our skills to product development engineering and found Tata Technologies to be the right place for our aspirations.”

In a company where lunch hours often turn into a dash to the parking lot to drive a colleague’s new car and do a quick rundown of trims, fixtures and interiors, where people discuss aerospace composites over coffee, where seniors never ever say no to youngsters wanting to know more about technology domains; going forward seems easy and the answer seems to lie in letting passion take its’ own course. While engineering passion is the key element here, harnessing that passion to achieve sustainable growth is the real key. Building a company where Passionate Fun Loving Engineers continue to help create better products on a much larger canvas in an increasingly competitive, and smaller world – that is what Tata Technologies wants to enable as a company for its’ PFLEs.

THE ROAD AHEAD

HOW DOES THIS PASSION THRIVE ?

A niche, specialist company like Tata Technologies can maintain its’ steady climb upward only when the individual passion of its’ engineers gets the right support from the rest of the organisation. The HR team provides that support in the form of new talent acquisition, mentoring and training, and overall employee engagement initiatives. The core of Tata Technologies’ HR strategy lies in the Return on Human Capital framework which connects employee engagement with business outcomes. Employee engagement serves the dual purpose of delivering value to customer and greater employee productivity; which in turn leads to higher margins that subsidize further enhancing employee engagement.Tata Technologies has been able to scale and democratize its HR functions by making its

processes more fair and transparent through the cross-functional Employee Experience Leadership Team (EeLT), leveraging IT systems and through a conscious move away from a traditional “power center” to an “influencing center”.In his book, Human Resource Champions, David Ulrich speaks of a new vision for HR, “not by what it does, but by what it delivers results that enrich the organization’s value to customers, investors, and employees.” At Tata Technologies, EeLT is a unique example of HR represented in the management team by business heads. The HR department and this cross functional team of leaders comprising delivery, sales, human resources and finance team members work together to establish best in class industry practices which promote a high performance culture.

In the last couple of years, the primary areas of HR reskilling for enhanced business alignment have happened in the following areas at Tata Technologies:

1. Drive the HR agenda through a clearly measurable and quantifiable Return on Human Capital framework which links business performance with HR actions.

2. Promote High Performance Culture (HPC) by shaping and executing a range of policies and systems. Some of the initiatives include fair and t r a n s p a r e n t p e r f o r m a n c e a p p r a i s a l process, develop competency framework and talent pools, contain costs of recruitment by promoting non-traditional channels like radio campaigns etc.

3. Work with EeLT to Build Winning Teams (WT) by constructing scientific and predictable workforce planning tools which are connected to hardcore business metrices.

4. Offer signature employee experience (SEE) to ever y member of the workforce by implementing scalable HR systems.

5. Leverage the EeLT process and work with a collaborative approach with business that enriches learning at individual level for employees in HR and increases HR’s orientation to business success.

6. Last but not the least, with help from Finance offering an ‘on the job’ financial and commercial understanding to each employee in HR, has improved the legitimacy of HR members to Tata Technologies’ business requirements.

School Adoption on Teacher’s Day 2011:

Teachers are the world’s future-builders. No achievers have succeeded without the guidance of a teacher. In India, Sept. 5 is a Teachers’ Day, which seeks to acknowledge the contribution of educators.

A donation of Rs. 75,000 was presented to the School Principal of Gurukulam, Pimpri, India on Teachers’ Day.

The donation was generated from online cricket quiz competition, a Corporate Sustainability initiative. The quiz was organized with an objective of donating the proceeds for a noble cause.

The Flood of 2011: A Salute to the Thailand Team for Overcoming Major Challenges:

Tata Technologies employees in Thailand will remember 2011 for a long time. With the country ravaged by the worst flooding in half a century, the employees persevered – not only to get the job done, but to help others as well.

The disaster has been described as “the worst flooding yet in terms of the amount of water and people affected,” resulting in 815 deaths, affecting 13.6 million people’s homes and livelihood and 1 million people becoming jobless because of this disaster.

Tata Technologies professional not only persevered; they also turned their focus to helping others. They donated blood, money and time to help advance the recovery efforts of their country. One blood drive in November 2011 helped the Thai Red Cross Society address critical blood shortages in many provinces.

Management Discussion & Analysis

A. Company Overview

B. Offerings

C. Manufacturing Industry Outlook

Tata Technologies is a leading manufacturing consulting organization, tracing its roots back to 1981, offering Engineering Services Outsourcing (ESO) and Enterprise IT Services which optimize clients’ product development process and the entire manufacturing ecosystem. Tata Technologies complements its’ Services portfolio through the provision (reselling) of the enabling software technologies, including software developed by Tata Technologies, that underpin successful Product Development and Manufacturing Business (Enterprise) systems.Tata Technologies is a company of engineers, led by engineers, with 5,443 associates, representing 17 nationalities. Tata technologies serves clients in 25 countries, with a delivery model specifically designed for engineering and manufacturing IT engagements that offers a unique blend of deep, local expertise integrated with our six global delivery centers, Detroit (USA), Coventry (UK), Pune (India), Bangalore (India), Stuttgart (Germany), and Bangkok (Thailand). The international headquarters is located in Singapore.

Manufacturers are increasingly challenged to provide safer, environmentally friendly, innovative, content-rich products that are tailored to local markets at the same or lower cost. Tata Technologies helps its customers meet these business requirements through four service groups:

VPD – Vehicle Programs & Development (VPD)The VPD provides complete outsourced program management, concept development, detail design, validation and manufacturing planning services. Projects of this scale and complexity are achieved through a combination of automotive experts in the US and Europe, coupled with India’s most experienced automotive engineers. Programs include electric vehicles, or EV variants that help achieve sustainability targets, while providing mobility at an affordable price point. The eMO electric vehicle, designed by Tata Technologies, showcased at the 2012 International Auto Show in Detroit, was a first for any India-based engineering services firm.

E&D – Outsourced Engineering & DesignThe services of this group include concept development, VA/VE, CAE, detailed engineering, embedded software development, product verification, and manufacturing process design, tool design and validation, applied to major product subsystems and components. Offerings include the provision of providing services from offshore engineering centers in India and Thailand.

PLM – Product Lifecycle Management SolutionsThe PLM optimizes product development processes, implementing collaborative PLM tools, a major contributor to ER&D investment efficiency, especially for global engineering teams with extensive supply chains. Tata Technologies is the world’s largest independent reseller of PLM technology. It and its customers are among the world’s top users of PLM technology. The company’s engineers use these products to deliver services to our clients worldwide. It packages the insights and best practices we have developed through our engineering heritage into service offering templates to improve the efficiency of engineering teams at Tata Technologies and it’s clients.

ESG – Enterprise Solutions GroupThe ESG provides consulting and IT solutions that help manufacturing customers in optimizing critical enterprise processes through the application and data analytics of Enterprise Resource Planning, (ERP), Manufacturing Execution Systems, (MES), and Customer Relationship Management, (CRM), including the use of social media and improving manufacturing planning and performance. It also has extensive experience in rapidly integrating the processes, systems and data of companies acquired by manufacturers.

The global manufacturing industry continued to improve and investments in product development continued to grow. Every manufacturer is attempting to attract and retain customers through the rapid introduction of innovative and differentiated product; to differentiate their products from competition, to meet regulatory requirements and adapt to, or design product for high growth markets – at attractive price points and great margins. Every manufacturing Engineering Research & Development, ER&D, group is constrained by budget and talent shortages, searching for investment efficiency and lowering fixed costs. Our product development process experience, mastery of the virtual world, long-standing partnerships with leading PLM suppliers and our own, first-hand experience in leveraging PLM technologies, enables us to knit our own and the client’s global teams into an efficient “Product Development machine” improving cycle time, throughput and ‘FTC’, first time through design capability, lowering both the frequency and magnitude of design changes and costly physical properties.

Page 38: Annual Report 2011 2012 Web

According to a recent Booz & Co. analysis, in Tata Technologies’ core industries, Automotive, Aerospace & Defense and Industrial Machinery, the Engineering Research and Development, ER&D, spend continued to grow. Auto and Aero grew 8.5% CAGR (1998 to 2010) and is forecast to grow at 9.1% CAGR between 2012 and 2020. The Industrial Machinery ER&D spend for the2012-2020 period CAGR is 0.8% and at USD $19Billion in 2010 which is still substantial. Across industries, India and China headquartered firms continue to rapidly increase ER&D spend, 2005-2010 at 41% CAGR, and are expected to outpace ROW. Engineering Services sourced to low cost countries is forecast to grow at 16.4% CAGR between 2012 & 2017.NASSCOM reports that “the Indian IT-BPO sector achieved a significant landmark in FY2012 crossing aggregate revenues of USD $100 Billion and India’s market share in the global sourcing arena (grew to) about 58% in 2011. India ER&D exports reached USD $10.2 Billion with YoY growth of 14%”. * Tata Technologies is positioned to capitalize on the increase in spend with core competency in the convergence of manufacturing domain skills with leading edge technology coupled with deep experience in both mature and emerging markets.*“NASSCOM, The IT-BPO Sector in India, Strategic Review 2012”, Pages 3 and 15

The automotive industry continues to emerge from the recession with strong growth led by emerging markets, factors such as increased urbanization, shift to smaller cars, increased consumer focus on value, the shift from mature markets, global overcapacity, talent shortages, especially in engineering and an environmentally friendly product life cycle. According to Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu’s senior automotive leaders, “A massive shift in the competitive landscape will see China and India emerge as major players in the industry. These markets will join Western Europe, Japan, Korea, and the United States as the centers of design and manufacturing for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and their suppliers. An era of “conscious consumption” will emerge. Customers around the world will be more cost conscious, especially in the developing world where millions of people will make their first ever car purchase. Environmental considerations will also weigh heavily on the industry towards 2020. The fierce race to develop and produce electric vehicles, spurred by both customer demand and government incentives, will mean that up to a third of all cars purchased in developed countries in 2020 will not be propelled by an internal combustion engine.” **** “A new era: Accelerating toward 2020 — An Automotive Industry Transformed”, Page 3

Our company sees a large proportion of ER&D spend with emphasis on four main areas …1. Electronics and embedded systems, used to differentiate product, offer value-added services and meet

regulatory challenges, especially in … • Improving fuel economy• Telematics / Communications – the “connected car”• Safety & Security Features• Infotainment

2. Alternative Propulsion systems, such as plug-in hybrids, full electric, and fuel cell powered vehicles will continue to command high levels of investment, subsidized by government in many parts of the world.

3. Reducing weight, lightweight structures – in part, through the use of lightweight materials – High-strength steel, aluminum, magnesium and carbon-fiber reinforced polymer, CFRP.

4. Future products and manufacturing processes will be more eco-friendly, leveraging eco-friendly materials and requiring less energy, system-wide, raw material through recycling.

Addressing these automotive market trends, Tata Technologies eMO electric mobility study, profiled in another part of this report, represents a big leap forward for Tata Technologies in innovation in the sector. The eMO, which was unveiled in January 2012 at the International Automotive Show in Detroit is the world’s first complete vehicle study developed by an India-based engineering services company. This program showcases innovation in automotive packaging and design, manufacturing processes, as well as EV engineering benchmarks; and was invented to go to market at the disruptive price point of $20,000.

The civil aerospace market is rapidly expanding in developing markets and replacements due to the demand for fuel efficient fleet in developed markets. In fact PwC says, referring mainly to production capacity, “Our analysis indicates that a significant proportion of suppliers are at risk of not being able to deliver the ramp-up that is required.” *** This rapid expansion is putting a strain on supply chains in ER&D as well. Innovation is imperative to drive down costs and meet new customer and regulatory requirements such as stronger, lighter and smart materials and sensors which monitor the equipment health and reducing maintenance costs. Tata Technologies experienced teams in aero-structures design, manufacturing process planning and tool design specifically to address this need. PwC also reports that M&A activity is at record levels in 2011 and consolidation is likely to continue. The need to integrate disparate PLM and ERP/SAP systems from the consolidated companies soon follow, which is a core capability of Tata Technologies. Tata Technologies has been implementing PLM, SAP and MES solutions in A&D,for more than 15 years. Our ability to implement customized PLM and SAP solutions enables entire organizations and their external networks to respond in unison, more efficiently, to changing business conditions.*** PwC Mission control 2011 annual and fourth-quarter review page 3

G. PLM Market

The market for Industrial machinery continues to grow, especially in construction, mining and farm equipment sectors. As the demand increases, especially in emerging markets, so do the investment levels. Caterpillar and John Deere are expanding their footprint in China with the recent acquisitions and new factory expansion. Demand in India is strong. In the US, there is an increase in federal funding for highway infrastructure, a key driver for growth. There is focus on effective supply chain planning following volatility in raw material input prices and increasing global footprint. Tata Technologies continues to expand in the Industrial Machinery industry especially in using frugal engineering principals to design and products and recommend local sourcing opportunities to meet local requirements.

The Comprehensive PLM Market experienced strong global growth in CY2011 annually increasing by 15.4% to USD $29.9 Billion according to CIM data. **** CIMdata also estimate that “cPLM will grow 10.6% per year from 2012 to 2016, driven by growth in simulation and analysis, systems engineering, non-traditional industries such as financial and services, expanded push for sustainable and green design, continued growth in the mid-market and growth in Asia-Pacific and other emerging areas” where Tata Technologies is well positioned. Tata Technologies has long term partnerships with the leading software providers such as Dassault, Autodesk and Siemens that dominate the market. Cost pressures on manufactures as well as high demand for new products, especially from emerging markets, will continue to push manufacturers to improve product development efficiency across the entire ER&D network by intelligently implementing advanced PLM solutions. Continued consolidation in the industries we serve, drive the demand for rationalization and integration of product development processes, methods and tools. Tata Technologies engineering process approach blended with deep knowledge of the capabilities and limitations of software tools addresses this demand is illustrated in the article in this report titled “ Helping racing legends be their best”.

Talent AcquisitionTechnology is a crucial component of an integrated HR management initiative. An IT enabled workflow between demand generation for resources and final deployment for revenue generation forms the backbone of our talent acquisition process. The facility enables all stakeholders in the resource acquisition cycle, to seamlessly align & track fulfilment of business requirement.Structured recruitment brand building initiatives continued for positioning the company as an employer of choice for fresh recruits from Campus as well as lateral hires. Across the country,66 premium institutions were covered for campus hiring. This represents an increase of 12% institutions over the previous year. The program also focussed on lateral hiring and ran the highly creative PFLE (Passionate Fun Loving Engineers) campaign to build sustainable differentiation for Tata Technologies as an employer brand. As a part of our continuous drive for cost optimisation, we set up India offshore support for talent management for our North American operations.

Talent DiversityThe company has improved its workforce diversity through equal-opportunity recruitment programs globally. As on March 31, 2011, women constituted 13% of the total work-force. The segmentation of employees across geographies was 78% in APAC, 12% in NA and 10% in EU.

Learning & DevelopmentThe organisational strategy and business plans define the thrust areas of learning and competency development in Tata Technologies. In addition to the competency development areas identified by the strategy and business plan, LOB specific and individual requirements are captured and translated by the L&D group into the annual L&D plan. These plans are used to prepare the monthly schedules which are augmented by the just in time project requirements from the business. FUNDA for Campus recruits is a benchmarked program with industry and provides two months of structured inputs to new joinees in Technical and Cognitive areas. A wide variety of e-learning programs were proliferated to all levels of employees. Our training achieved coverage of 3246 employees with an average of 5.2 days of training per person for the year.

Tata Technologies believes that the company’s success in building internal capability and motivation depends on individual talent being nurtured and people acquiring the right skills, necessary to drive business objectives.

A number of programs have been launched in our endeavour to enhance Leadership Effectiveness. By leveraging technology and a unique concept of modular progressive education, we devised the EVOLVE program to impart Leadership training. The program is structured into 33 modules. The rest of the programs are conducted using web technology and participants attend the class in a virtual classroom which ensures collaborative learning and exchange of ideas.

iSMART, a program featuring a combination of options for growth of soft skills, leadership development, technical skill enhancement, coaching and mentoring programs. iSMART aims at developing necessary characteristics and behaviour at an individual level and bridge company-wide identified competency gaps to achieve our goals. The iSMART program started on 23rd. Dec’11 with the launch of online Harvard Business Publishing courses. Globally, 2204employees registered for the courses and by 31st. March ’12, 1466 employees completed the course.

In current scenario of global volatile and multi facet market a Company’s sustainability and growth are based on risk management capabilities. A risk event that affects business is a significant occurrence in the life of any Company, affecting directly on its ability to fulfill its business objectives.

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Framework

Definition

ERM is a process, effected by an entity's Board of Directors, management and other personnel, applied in strategy setting and across the enterprise, designed to identify potential events that may affect the entity, and manage risks to be within its risk appetite, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of entity objectives.

The Company has established a formal Enterprise Risk Management (ERM). The Company has adopted the recommendations on the Enterprise Risk Management framework provided by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). As a services focused Company, it is necessary for the Company to manage risk at the individual transaction level and to consider aggregate risk at the customer, industry and geographic, where appropriate.

ERM Organization and Process

The Executive Management Team of the Company is responsible for implementing the Risk Management Framework under the direction of the Audit Committee of the Company, and the Audit Committee provides periodical updates to the Board of Directors of the Company. The Board monitors the overall performance of the Risk Management function.

External Risk Factors

1. Competition Risk

The Company faces direct competition from the large and medium players in India, as well as from international players in the IT and engineering services sectors. Competition from players in the U.S. and Europe is also a cause of concern for the non-captive business. This could reduce the business prospects of the Company in future. The potential competition would be:

• In-house IT and engineering departments of large corporations setting up captive operations in India and the APAC region.

• Competition from established IT service providers moving into engineering

• Competition from well-established western engineering service providers, as we increasingly work in this space.

Risk Management Activities

A disciplined approach to risk is important in an organization such as ours in order to ensure that we are executing according to our strategic objectives and this process is designed to identify potential events that, if they occur, will affect our Company. The management has identified the following top 10 risks, classified into external risk factors and internal risk factors, to help achieve business objectives in a robust manner.

Identification

• Understand Current initiatives

• Conduct Awareness Workshop

• Capture Risk perceptions

• Assign likelihood/ impact scores

Mitigation

• Work out mitigation plans

Risk Management Activities

The Company has ensured its direct presence across geographies through the Company’s subsidiaries, JVs, and branch offices. This should help the Company tap major markets across the globe. Through the matured offshore development systems and the conscious efforts to move towards value-added services, the Company is looking for deeper penetration of existing customers. We are also investing in developing niche areas of services such as Full Vehicle Development Program (VPD) etc. The Company is also striving for long term multi-year contracts and improving Global Engagement Model (GEM).These niche practices position the Company as a focused player and help manage competition risk.

To beat the competition on its head, the Company has established the Vehicle Programs & Development (VPD) Group, which employs a multidimensional engineering approach to vehicle development by providing various solutions including styling, Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE), CAE, CAD, DMU, and Complete Vehicle Integration.

Tata Motors Limited (TML), the parent Company, is perceived to be a competitor by many global automotive companies. The Company is facing this risk while positioning itself as established player in the domestic and international market.

Risk Management Activities

Company has taken steps to build a valued relationship with its prospective customers and positioning itself as independent entity from the parent company. Recently, the Company also diluted its parent Company’s ownership through preferential allotment to two Private Equity Funds.

From the beginning, as part of its strategy, the Company keeps its business with TML separate from its business with other automakers. Company also continues to focus on growth with non-TML competitors and with complementary industries as part of mitigation strategy.

Company has an established Information Security Management System (ISMS) to meet the stringent requirements of the security standard ISO 27001:2005and to ensure confidentiality of each customer’s data and Intellectual Property (IP). Controls include restricted physical access to specific customer work areas and logical data separation ensured through appropriate controls in the intranet, firewall, etc.

The ISMS is built on the strong foundation of the company’s Quality Management System (QMS) which conforms to the quality standards ISO 9001:2008 and AS 9100 C (aerospace quality standard).

In Product Solutions business division, the Company has limited bargaining power with various suppliers of the software products we distribute around the globe.

Risk Management Activities

The Company’s risk is not greater than any other channel partner in its competitive landscape. Each of these partners is unique, but shares common attribute in the complexity of their evolving distribution strategies. The nature of their business model generates frequent changes to account coverage, market support, and availability of margins to partners. The Company has a constant focus on mitigating these factors through executive relationships, good partner management practices, and maintaining strong performance in the Company’s field operations.

There is a risk that the second line of Executive Management (Leadership Team) may not be available at all the times.

Succession Plan is in place for the entire Leadership Team (short term in case of an emergency and long term from job rotations and growth perspective). Growth of next line of leaders is ensured through Learning Organization. This is also ensured by getting them to play higher roles in their existing capacity.

1. PHILOSOPHY

2. BOARD OF DIRECTORS

“Corporate governance has become the new corporate jargon like share-holder value. Corporate governance is really a state of mind. It is embodied in the feelings and traditions of the Tata group. JRD Tata’s name has been mentioned several times today and the group owes a great deal of this tradition to him. He often referred to the manager’s role as one of trusteeship.”

“Corporate governance is today, one of the attributes of a good corporate citizen. It is part of the management framework, but it does not replace the tradition ingrained into your bones.”

RATAN TATA Ceremony of National Award forExcellence in Corporate Governance, 2001

The philosophy and ultimate goal at Tata Technologies is to serve corporate purposes for enhancing the long term value of the organization for its stakeholders, by providing a framework within which stakeholders can pursue the objectives of the organisation most effectively. This philosophy is further strengthened by Tata Groups’ legacy through implementation of the Tata Business Excellence Model (TBEM). TBEM is a ‘customised-to-Tata’ adaptation of the globally renowned Malcolm Baldrige organizational assessment model mandated to help Tata Group companies achieve business objectives through specific processes which delivers strategic direction and drives business improvement. TBEM assessments now lay renewed emphasis in areas of climate change, safety, Corporate Governance and innovation. Assessments now capture Corporate Governance practices among Tata Group Companies as part of the main application.

Corporate Governance signifies acceptance by management of the inalienable rights of shareholders as the true owners of the organization and of their own role as trustees on behalf of the shareholders.

Corporate Governance is a set of principles, policies, processes and practices affecting the way a corporation is run and which help it fulfill responsibilities to all its stakeholders – shareholders, employees, customers, suppliers, government and society at large. It is about how an organization is managed. The Leadership of Tata Technologies continuously aims for ‘Change for the Better’ with strong emphasis on customer satisfaction, sustainable growth and increase in the stakeholder value. This orientation towards fair and ethical governance stems from the culture and mindset imbibed in it as part of the Tatas and upheld through a passion for excellence championed by senior leaders. Tata Technologies is committed to adding value and achieving continual improvements through leadership by example.

For Tata Technologies, Corporate Governance implies observance of certain basic principles of ethical growth and is more than mere compliance with global standards of governance and disclosure. Tata Technologies’ leadership team is committed to managing the Company in accordance with the organization’s Vision, Mission and Values.

• Vision: “We are determined to be the world’s number one partner to the manufacturing industry.”

• Mission: “Better products benefit people – that is our business.”

Though the Company is not listed and the statutory guidelines on Corporate Governance are not applicable, the Company has voluntarily opted for adoption of various Corporate Governance measures. There have been continuous efforts made to improve and increase the Corporate Governance measures in the recent years, which include among others improved Board reporting, building a strong ethics culture with increased focus on implementation of the Tata Code of Conduct, commitment to corporate sustainability, legal compliances systems, more focused internal audit, etc.

As a guard of the Company's Corporate Governance practices, the Board of Directors of the Company protects the long-term interests of stakeholders of the Company. The Board is the representative of the shareholder to achieve the overall purpose of the organisation.

The Board is primarily responsible to provide and evaluate the strategic direction of the Company, management policies and their effectiveness. The Board's responsibilities further include overseeing the functioning of the Company's top management, monitoring legal compliance and management of the risks related to the Company's operations.

To obtain a uniform measurable deployment of the TCOC across all employees and contractors of Tata Technologies, wherever they might exist globally, the Company created a specifically tailored training program on TCOC using ‘iGETIT®’.

Note 1Company Overview

Note 2Significant Accounting Policies

TATA Technologies Limited ("TTL or the Company") was incorporated on August 22, 1994 as a Private Limited company in the name of Core Software Systems Private Limited. The name of the Company was subsequently changed to Tata Technologies (India) Limited. On February 8, 2001, the Company changed its name from Tata Technologies (India) Limited to Tata Technologies Limited. The Company's range of services includes IT Consultancy, SAP implementation and maintenance, providing networking solutions, CAD/CAM engineering & design consultancy. The Company is headquartered in Pune, India. The Company has five branches located at Mumbai, Lucknow, Jamshedpur, Bangalore and Chennai that enables it to provide high quality, cost-effective services to clients in India.

a. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, in accordance with Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). GAAP comprises the mandatory accounting standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards Rules, 2006). Accounting policies have been consistently applied except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.

b. Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the management of the Company (Management) to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period / year and balances of assets and liabilities and disclosures relating to contingent liabilities as at the date of financial statements. Provisions are made for all known losses and liabilities, future unforeseeable factors that may affect the profit on fixed price service contracts and also towards likely expenses for providing post-sales client support on such contracts.

c. Revenue Recognition

Revenue from services on time and materials contracts is recognized when services are rendered and related costs are incurred i.e. based on certification of time sheets and billed to clients as per the terms of specific contracts. In case of fixed price contracts, revenue is recognized over the life of the contract based on milestones achieved as specified in the contracts or by proportionate completion method on the basis of the work completed. Foreseeable losses on such contracts are recognized when probable.

Revenue from rendering Annual Maintenance Services (SAP-ERP) is recognized proportionately over the period of contract. Revenue from third party software products and hardware sale is recognized upon delivery. Income from interest and rent is recognized on time proportion basis. Dividend from investments is recognized when the right to receive the payment is established and when no significant uncertainty as to measurability or collectability exists. Commission Income on sale of PLM products is recognized upon delivery of products by the vendor to the end user.

d. Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Costs include all expenses incurred to bring the assets to its present location and condition. Direct costs are capitalized till the assets are ready for use and include financing costs relating to any borrowing attributable to the acquisition of qualifying fixed assets. Software not exceeding Rs. 25,000 is charged off to the profit and loss account.

e. Depreciation

Depreciation on Fixed Assets is provided on Straight Line Method (SLM) at the rates specified in the schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956, except as follows:

Tata Technologies Limited

Depreciation on additions to Fixed Assets is provided from the month of acquisition of the Asset.Depreciation on Assets sold / scraped during the period is provided for prior to the month of sale / scrap as the case may be. The Company charges 100% depreciation on assets individually costing less than Rs. 5000 in the year of purchase.

f. Leases

Assets leased by the Company in its capacity as lessee, where the Company has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance lease. Such lease are capitalised at the inception of the lease at lower of the fair value or the present value of the 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 year.Lease arrangements where the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset substantially vest with the lessor, are recognized as operating lease. Lease payments under operating leases are recognized in the Profit & Loss account on a straight line basis.

g. Foreign Currency transactionsIncome and expenses in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction. Monetary current assets and current liabilities are reinstated at period-end exchange rates and the profit / loss so determined and also the realized exchange gains / losses are recognized in the Profit & Loss Account. Premium or discount on forward contracts is amortised over the life of such contract and is recognized as income or expense in the profit and Loss Account.

h. InvestmentsInvestments are classified into current investments & long term investments. Current investments are carried at lower of cost and market value. Any reduction in carrying amount and reversals of such reductions are charged or credited to the Profit & Loss account. Long term investments are stated at cost less provision for diminution in the value of such investments. Diminution in value is provided for where the management is of the opinion that the diminution is other than temporary in nature.

I. Impairment of AssetsAt each balance sheet date, the Company reviews using internal resources the carrying amounts of its fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that the assets suffered an impairment loss. If any such condition exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of impairment loss. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows expected from continuing use of the asset and from its disposal are discounted to their present value using a pre tax rate that reflects the current market assessments of time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.Reversal of impairment loss is recognized immediately as income in the profit & loss account.

j. InventoriesInventories are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is ascertained on a moving weighted average basis.

k. Employee Benefitsi. Gratuity

The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The plan provides for a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount equivalent to 15 to 30 days salary payable for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service. The Company makes annual contributions to gratuity fund established as trust. The Company accounts for the liability for gratuity benefits payable in future based on an independent actuarial valuation as on the Balance Sheet date.

ii. SuperannuationThe Company has two superannuation plans, a defined benefit plan and a defined contribution plan. An eligible employee on April 1, 1996 could elect to be member of either plan. Employees who are the members of the defined benefit superannuation plan are entitled to benefits depending on the years of service and salary drawn. The monthly pension benefits after retirement range from 0.75% to 2% of the annual basic salary for each year of service. The Company account for superannuation benefits payable in future under the plan based on an independent actuarial valuation as on the Balance Sheet date.With effect from April 1, 2003, this plan was amended and benefits earned by covered employees have been protected as at March 31, 2003.

The Company maintains separate irrevocable trusts for employees covered and entitled to benefits. The Company contributes up to 15% of the eligible employees’ salary to the trust every year. Such

contributions are recognized as an expense when incurred. The Company has no further obligation beyond this contribution.

The benefits of the plan accrue to an eligible employee at the time of death or permanent disablement, while in service, either as a result of an injury or as certified by the appropriate authority.

The provident fund contributions, as specified under the law, are paid to the provident fund set up as irrevocable trust by the Company and pension amount is paid to Regional Provident Fund Commissioner and the Central Provident Fund under the State Pension Scheme. The contributions paid during the year are charged to Profit and Loss account.

vi. Compensated absencesThe Company provides for the encashment of leave or leave with pay subject to certain rules. The employees are entitled to accumulate leave subject to certain limits, for future encashment. The liability is provided based on number of days of unutilized leave at each balance sheet date on the basis of an independent actuarial valuation as on the Balance Sheet date.

l. Taxation

Current Income tax payable in India is determined in accordance with the provisions of Income Tax Act, 1961 and current income tax expense relating to overseas operations is determined in accordance with tax laws applicable in countries where such operations are domiciled.

Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized on timing differences being the difference between taxable income and accounting income that originate in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates and the tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax assets in respect of unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward of losses are recognized only to the extent that there is virtual certainty that taxable income will be available to realize these assets. All other deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that future taxable income will be available to realize such assets.

m. Employee Stock Options

In accordance with the Employee Stock Option Scheme and Employee Stock Purchase Scheme Guidelines, 1999 issued by Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), the Company introduced Employee Stock Option Plan 2001 (TTESOP 2001) in 2000-01.

Current investments are carried at lower of cost and market value. Any reduction in carrying amount and reversals of such reductions are charged or credited to the Profit and account.

Long term investments are stated at cost less provision for diminution in the value of such investments Diminution in value is provided for where the management is of the opinion that the diminution is other than temporary in nature.

n) Impairment of Assets

At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews using internal resources the carrying amounts of its fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that the assets suffered an impairment loss. If any such condition exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of impairment loss. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows expected from continuing use of the asset and from its disposal are discounted to their present value using a pre tax rate that reflects the current market assessments of time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

Reversal of impairment loss is recognized immediately as income in the Profit and Loss Account.

o) Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is ascertained on a moving weighted average basis.

p) Employee Benefits

(i) GratuityThe Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The plan provides for a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount equivalent to 15 to 30 days salary payable for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service. The Company makes annual contributions to gratuity fund established as trust. The Company accounts for the liability for gratuity benefits payable in future based on an independent actuarial valuation as on the Balance Sheet date.

(ii) SuperannuationThe Company has two superannuation plans, a defined benefit plan and a defined contribution plan. An eligible employee on April 1, 1996 could elect to be member of either plan.

Employees who are the members of the defined benefit superannuation plan are entitled to benefits depending on the years of service and salary drawn. The monthly pension benefits after retirement range from 0.75% to 2% of the annual basic salary for each year of service. The Company and the said subsidiaries account for superannuation benefits payable in future under the plan based on an independent actuarial valuation as on the Balance Sheet date.

With effect from April 1, 2003, this plan was amended and benefits earned by covered employees have been protected as at March 31, 2003. Employees covered by this plan are prospectively entitled to benefits computed on a basis that ensures that the annual cost of providing the pension benefits would not exceed 15% of salary.

The Company maintains separate irrevocable trusts for employees covered and entitled to benefits. The Company contributes up to 15% of the eligible employees’ salary to the trust every year. Such contributions are recognized as an expense when incurred. The Company has no further obligation beyond this contribution.

(iii) Bhavishya Kalyan Yojana (BKY)Bhavishya Kalyan Yojana is an unfunded defined benefit plan. The benefits of the plan accrue to an eligible employee at the time of death or permanent disablement, while in service, either as a result of an injury or as certified by the appropriate authority. The monthly payment to dependents of the deceased /disabled employee under the plan equals 50% of the salary drawn at the time of death or accident or a specified amount, whichever is higher. The Company accounts for the liability for BKY benefits payable in future based on an independent actuarial valuation as on the Balance Sheet date.

(iv) Post-retirement Medicare SchemUnder this Scheme employees get medical benefits subject to certain limits of amount, periods after retirement and types of benefits, depending on their grade and location at the time of retirement. The Company accounts for the liability for post-retirement medical scheme based on an independent actuarial valuation as on the Balance Sheet date.

(v) Provident FundThe eligible employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits under the provident fund, a defined contribution plan, in which both employees and the Company make monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the covered employees’ salary (currently 12% of employees’ salary). The provident fund contributions, as specified under the law, are paid to the provident fund set up as irrevocable trust by the Company and pension amount is paid to Regional Provident Fund Commissioner and the Central Provident Fund under the State Pension Scheme. The contributions paid during the year are charged to Profit and Loss account.

(vi) Compensated absencesThe Company provides for the encashment of leave or leave with pay subject to certain rules. The employees are entitled to accumulate leave subject to certain limits, for future encashment. The liability is provided based on number of days of unutilized leave at each balance sheet date on the basis of an independent actuarial valuation as on the Balance Sheet date.

q) Taxation

Current income tax expense comprises taxes on income from operations in India and foreign tax jurisdictions. Income tax payable in India is determined in accordance with the provisions of Income Tax Act, 1961. Tax expense relating to overseas operations is determined in accordance with tax laws applicable in countries where such operations are domiciled

Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized on timing differences being the difference between taxable income and accounting income that originate in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates and the tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date

Deferred tax assets in respect of unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward of losses are recognized to the extent that there is virtual certainty that taxable income will be available to realize these assets. All other deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that future taxable income will be available to realize these assets.

r) Employee Stock Options

In accordance with the Employee Stock Option Scheme and Employee Stock Purchase Scheme Guidelines, 1999 issued by Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), the Company introduced Employee Stock Option Plan 2001(TTESOP 2001) in 2000-01. As per the Plan, the options were granted at fair value as determined by an independent valuer as on the date of the grant and hence no compensation cost has been recognized.

s) Earnings per share

The earnings considered in ascertaining the Company's earnings per share comprise the net profit after tax and include the post-tax effect of any extra-ordinary items. The number of shares used in computing basic earnings per share, is the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The number of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share comprises the shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also number of equity shares that could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

t) Borrowing costsBorrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset. Borrowing costs are capitalized as part of the cost of a qualifying asset when it is probable that they will result in future economic benefits to the enterprise and the costs can be measured reliably. Other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the year in which they are incurred

u) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

A provision is recognized when the Company has present obligation as a result of past event and its probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which reliable estimate can be made. The provisions (excluding retirement benefits) are not discounted to its present value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect current best estimates. Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial statements. A contingent asset is neither recognized nor disclosed in the financial statements.

1. What is Demat and what are its benefits?

Dematerialization (‘Demat’ in short form) signifies conversion of a share certificate from its present physical form to electronic form for the same number of holding.

It offers scope for paperless trading through state-of-the-art technology, whereby share transactions and transfers are processed electronically without involving any share certificate or transfer deed after the share certificates have been converted from physical form to electronic form.

Demat attempts to avoid the time consuming and complex process of getting shares transferred in the name of buyers as well its inherent problems of bad deliveries, delay in processing/fraudulent interception in postal transit, etc.

11. Procedure for “Nomination” for shares

Shareholders who hold the shares singly in physical form and wish to make or change the nomination in respect of the shares held by them as permitted under section 109A of the Act, may submit an application to TSR Darashaw Limited (TSRDL) in the prescribed Form 2B. The said form can be obtained from TSRDL or downloaded from their website.

For securit ies held in electronic form, the Investor must contact his/her Depositor y Participant.

Frequently Asked Questions on Dematerialization:

125

Page 150: Annual Report 2011 2012 Web

Eighteenth Annual Report 2011-12

Tata Technologies Limited

Dematerialization of shares is optional and an investor can still hold shares in physical form. The Depositories Act, 1996 has been enacted to regulate the matters related and incidental to the operation of Depositories and demat operations. Two Depositories are in operation - National Securities Depository Limited(NSDL) andCentral Depository Services Limited (CDSL).

Following are the benefits of demat:

1. Elimination of bad deliveries

2. Elimination of all risk associated with physical certificates

3. No stamp duty on transfers

4. Immediate transfer/trading of securities

5. Faster settlement cycle

6. Faster disbursement of non cash corporate benefits like rights, bonus etc.

7. SMS alter facility

8. Periodic status reports and information available on internet

9. Ease related to change of address of investor

10. Elimination of problems related to transmission of demat shares

11. Ease in portfolio monitoring

12. Ease in pledging the shares

2. How does the Depository System operate?

The operations in the Depository System involve the participation of a Depository, Depository Participants, Company/Registrars and Investors. The Company is also called the Issuer. A Depository (NSDL and CDSL) is an organization like a Central Bank, i.e. Reserve Bank where the securities on an investor are held in electronic form, through Depository participants. A Depository Participant is the agent of the Depository and is the medium through which the shares are held in the electronic form. They are also the representatives of the Investor, providing the link between the investor and the company through the Depository. To draw analogy, the Depository system functions very much like the banking system. A bank holds funds in accounts whereas; a Depository holds securities in accounts for its clients. A bank transfers funds between accounts whereas; a Depository transfers securities between accounts. In both systems, the transfer of funds or securities happens without the actual handling of funds or securities. Both the banks and the Depository are accountable for safe keeping of funds and securities respectively.

3. How to demat ones shares?

First, the Investor will have to open an account with a Depository Participant (DP) and get a unique Client ID number. Thereafter, he/she will have to fill up a Dematerialization Request Form (DRF) provided by the DP and surrender the physical shares, which is to be dematerialized to the DP.

The DP upon receipt of the shares and the DRF will send an electronic request to the company’s Registrar and Share Transfer Agent through the Depository for confirmation of demat. Each request will bear a unique transaction number.

The DP will simultaneously surrender the DRF and the shares to the Company’s Registrar and Share Transfer Agent with a covering letter requesting the Registrar and Share Transfer Agent of the Company to confirm demat. The Company’s Registrar and Share Transfer Agent after necessary verification of the documents received from the DP will confirm demat to the Depository.

This confirmation will be passed on from the Depository to the DP, which holds the Investors’ account. After receiving this confirmation from the Depository, the DP will credit the account with the shares so ematerialized. The DP will hold the shares in the dematerialized form thereafter on the Investors’ behalf and the Investor will become the beneficial owner of these dematerialized shares.

126

Page 151: Annual Report 2011 2012 Web

4. Can the dematerialized shares be converted back into physical form?

If the Investor is holding shares in electronic form, he/she will still have the option to convert their holding to physical form by submitting a Rematerialization Request Form (RRF) through their DP in the same manner as Dematerialization. Upon receipt of such request from the DP, the Company will issue share certificates for the number of shares so rematerialized.

5. What are the charges to be paid to demat one’s physical shares? Will the Company pay for it or does theInvestor have to pay for it?

The charges differ from DP to DP and therefore the Investor will have to contact his/her DP for the same. The charges for demat have to be borne by the Investor.

6. Can the share purchased in physical form be directly given to the DP for dematerialization?

Prior to dematerialization of the shares, they have to be registered in favor of the Investor. Hence, the Investor has to necessarily lodge the share certificates with a duly executed transfer deed with the Company’s Registrar and Share Transfer Agent.

7. How will the Investor get dividends on dematerialized shares? Will the shareholder get the Annual Report after dematerialization of the shares and would the Investor be able to attend the AGM?

The Depository Participants will give the list of demat account holders and the number of shares held by them in electronic form on the Record date to the Company (Beneficiary Persons, known as Benpos in short). On the basis of Benpos, the Company will issue dividend warrants in favor of the demat account holders.

The rights of the shareholders holding shares in demat form are at par with the holders in physical form. Hence the Investor will be eligible to get the Annual Report and will have the right to attend the AGM as a shareholder.

8. What are the chances of any fraud/disputes in using a demat account? Whom should the Investor approach in such cases?

Common risk factors applicable to trading in physical shares like mismatch in signatures, loss in postal transit etc., are absent since the dematerialized shares are traded scrip less.

However, in the unlikely event of any other dispute, the concerned Depository Custodian viz. NSDL/CSDL or SEBI would have to be approached for resolving such issues.

9. Can the Investor pledge his/her shares in demat form for the purpose of availing any funding/loan arrangement with the bankers?

Yes. The Investor will have to contact his/her DP for this.
