Dear Sir,

Actuary ReportAction taken on decisions in the 30.05.2001

We refer to your letter no Invest.I/Action taken/F1/98/6743dt 19.07.01. Onthe various points contained therein, we furnis below our submissionsseriatim. .

1. Please find enclosed at Annexure I, the stat~ment of investments andclosing balances for PensionAccount, desired fc r monitoring that thoere noidle funds, for the period 29.05.01 to 21.07.01. We have earlier sent youthe statement of idle funds for the period-1f.01-11.06.01 and period21.04.01-29.05.01. vide our letter no.s Tr[T Nt dated 16.06.01 andTr[TRN dated 20.06.01 respectively. Inddentalh ~we are furnishing to youdally .all these details thro.ug.he-mail,. and are somewhat .surprisedto readthat you have not received any of these stat~~ents. We had, informedyou in o.ur letter n.0 Tr/pmscs/sm/ .dat.ed13.06f1, that the infO.rmation isbeing e-mailed to you daily. -

2. The quotes obtained in a day are being sent to ou bye-mail daiJy, in theformat provided by the Actuary in the captioned meeting. We furnish thedates of sending you the e-mail against the correspondlnq business datesat Annexure II.

,,

3. As to contents of Audit Reports that may be construed to have a bearingon the quality of our investment decisions, ,I(i) our Concurrent Audit for May 2001 hav observed that "Put/call

options are available....Thls has to be en ured so that a review isundertaken at the appropriate time to exerdses the option orotherwise as considered necessary". On th s point we have to clarifythat as the existing investments carry gher' yield than what isavailable presently, it is our view that the e is no need to exerciseput options on behalf of CBTEPF.In cas of the issuer exercisingcall options, however, there will be no alternatives. As long asinterest.markets in the market soften, we.~ink' the same appr.oach.will have to be maintained. Due to this, separate review reporton put/caJl is being made. However, e are c;tdvising you offorthcoming put/call options as also on ca e to case basis throughour Securities Services Branch, and Ob

r'erve that you perhaps

continue to concur to our Views, as no se arate responses to suchfeedback are received. . .

(ii) Our Inspection & Audit dt 23.06.01. h s .suggested that "moreactive operations of Treasury Bills may e considered by PortfolioManager to avoid idle funds". To this, ou position is that, as T-bil/sales involve capital loss that EPFO has not permitted, all T-Billsmust be carried up to maturity. Furth r, with the stoppage ofissuance of 14 days and 182 days T-Bills y RBI, short dated T-Billsare not easily available, which accounts f r the relatiyely low levelsof investments in these instruments.

"(iii) Quotatlon for the Voice Recorder system has been obtained and

necessary actions will follow. We have air ady paid for a REUTERSscreen for the Dealer and the same is ex cted to be in place in 2-3days time.

At the outset discussions took place with the Actuary in the backdrop of his Email dt.I

28.07.2001, as well as the actions agreed in the meeting with FA (Labour) on 26.07.2001 and with

S6I on 30.05.2001. I

One of the issues that had not been finalized so far pertained Ito the formats for furnishingI

The following items were discussed :

1. Formats for furnishing information to the Actuary

(

information. It was discussed that excepting one format others as declded earlier had been mutually

accepted. Earlier all formats had been approved by the Finance and Investment Committee.

Subsequently, however, in the meeting on 30.5.2001 with S6I, Actua'lY had again raised the issueI

especially about format no 1. There was difference of opinion between the 561 & Actuary on theI

format no. 1. S6I have furnished information in a slightly dltfererit format stating that other,

information required by Actuary in his format no. 1 is not relevant. 4fter due deliberations it was

decided that as long as Actuary was furnished a yearly report in the prescribed tabular form by the

Finance& Investment wing, he had no problem in the details of the format no. 1.

[ Action Finance Wing]

It was also decided that Actuary will furnish the required so are to the finance wing for

generating desired report which will thereafter be furnished to him every ear for his valuation work.

[ Action Actuary ]

It was also decided that the formats for information would be nfw treated as frozen and will

not be changed any more.

General remarks of the Actuary on the performance of PenSion fund

There was a detailed discussion on the general remarks of the Adtuarv in his valuation reports.

In the valuation report of EPS,95 as on 31.3.1999, Actuary has recommended the pension relief of. ,

4% to all pensioners as on 31.3.1999 with minimum of Rs. 450/- p.m fr'r widow and Rs. lSO/-p.m for

child and Rs. 2S0/- p.m. for orphan. In this valuation report as earli r reports there is a general

remarks on the performance of the pension fund as \\ fund is drifting". This statement has not been

duly substantiated in the report nor has any basis or assumption repo ed. The Actuary was explained

the rigid investment pattern prescribed by the finance ministry and foil wed by the portfolio manager.

He stated that while no calculations had been made by him regarding t e hypothetical loss suffered by

the fund on account of delay in collection of interest, incentives, aturity proceeds and delay in

investment, he however felt that their would not be any loss if capital remains univested for a period

and income/capital gain at delayed investment outweighed the pre- nvestment income/capital loss

together with income for uninvested period. Actuary further stated th t he could not quantify such a

loss suffered by the fund. He was requested for specifics, when he indicated that it was his

'impression' and therefore he used the word "Drifting" to indicate that' the fund has not performed as

it should have". According to the Actuary it was the job of the auditors 0 quantify the loss on account

of such purchase, idle funds, delay in collection of interest, incenti es and maturity proceeds for

whatever reasons. The auditors in turn said that it was difficult to calc late such hypothetical loss. In

the opinion of the Actuary quantification of such losses should be p ssible after verification of the

records of the portfolio manager. The auditors were therefore directed to make calculations to arrive

at the exact notional losses after which a view could be taken on 'the ssue of drifting of the pension

fund. I [Action Auditors]I

c

It was also pointed out that the portfolio manager is handling th complete portfolio of the five

accounts which includes not only EPS but other EPF, EDLI, SPF, Pen ion & Gratuity fund etc. The

auditor is carrying out the audit of all the funds of the EPFO.Even in t e case of Pension fund out of

total corpus of Rs.34126.42 crores as on 30.6.2001, Rs. 18181.281crores is invested in public

accounts! 50S accounts where no drifting can take place. There is inv~stment of Rs7157.31 crores in

Central Govt. securities! SDL in which no delay take place. This leaves an amount of Rs 8787.83

crores invested in Govt. guaranteed securities/bonds of PSU/PSFIs.The!yearly investment were of the

order of Rs.2360 crores during 2000-01. The monthly average being Rs.196 crores. Every month

investment was made on an average 48 times. The aspects for loss ate thus restrictive to occasions

where the delays in making investments may be as explained by portfolio manager. Therefore the

impression of Actuary does not give the correct picture.

Actuary further i~vited attention to auditors reports about the in~estment decisions of portfolio

manager and mentioned that SBls reply had not been substantiaterf SBI was instructed to give

detailed reasons for each point. The portfolio manager explained th~ market mechanism and the

procedure being followed at their end and also agreed to give detailed reasons on auditors points.I

[Action S8I ]

The portfolio manager also felt that auditors should have first d scussed the report with them

before finalizing it as no. of points could have been clarified and settl d at their level. The practical

procedures being followed by the bank are as per the established arket practice and it will be'.

worthwhile for the Actuary and the auditor to get familiarized by visitin the fund managers office in

Mumbai to study the system.

Regarding the investment decisions, portfolio manager mentionet' that the prices of securities

change several times in a day and it will be impracticable to carry on watching though out the day

without striking any deal .. Rates may fluctuate several times in a dal The rates reflected on the

National-Stock Exchange are subject to availability of the security. Ilf somebody gives quotes to

o C someone and not to the Central Board of Trustees, EPF, it cannot be preSUmedthat the securities in

tune with the funds available with the Portfolio Manager were available in the market. Investmento I

decisions are made not only subject to availability of funds but als,o befitting rates, investment. . I'

pattern, Central Board of Trustees guidelines, safety and track record lof the issuer/seller which are

also kept in mind while striking a deal. Investment decisions cannot be ~aken in an arbitrary manner.

In that manner against each decision it could be questioned as to 1hY another security was not

purchased just by referring to the quotes in the National Stock EXChangr- Calculation of notional loss

without considering the aforesaid factors will be therefore futile. I

I

The Portfolio Auditors further stated that there will not be lany use in calculating such

hypothetical loss as informed in their letter dated 26.5.2001. Diffe~ence between the quotes inI

respect of purchase of secuntles available in the National Stock Exchangr and the deal price cannot be

stated as notional loss caused by the State Bank of India to the fun~ due to price movements, inI

securities several times during the day. Accordingly notional loss cannot be quantified by them. The

auditor confirmed that the loss on account of delay in collection of interest, incentives and maturity

Deputy General ManagF>r, SBI stated that their

concurrent auditors also recemmended more active trading

in the T-Bills which is not pcsstble due to caveat of selling

the r-ams only at profit i.l State Bank of India is not

allowed to sell the treasury ills at capital loss. Further T-

bills are the only invest 'I,ent avenues for short term

parking of funds: Conseque~t upon the discontinuation of

sale of 14 days T-Bills byl the Reserve Bank of India,

availability of T-6iJ/s may no~be there all times for a short

duration of three or four days; Further for taking the

advantage of good issues in the market sometimes the

funds have to be accumulsted. Funds accumulated for

availing such investment averues are in fact earmarked for

making the investment in these particular issues. For

getting better yield portfolio manager suggested that,

instead of making rash investment decisions/parking of

funds prudential investment .decistons may continue to be

taken. However, to avoid idling of funds the additional

short term parking of fund in call money market and

repos may also be considere .

As decided in the meetitg with the representatives of

investment opportunities not

availed while striking the deal

c:\lirinvest\minutes meeting-FA 26.7.01

It was expressed by the Auditor that State Bank of

India has given one line re~IY in respect of certain dealI

tickets pointed out in,AnneX1re-1 to auditors report for theperiod 1.10.1999 to 31.3.2 00 i.e. investment decisions

were taken without substanti ting the same.

DGM, SBI stated that securities purchase contracts of

Non-SGL securities are ca~ried out for future dates,

also(forward trading). settlfments are normally carried

out by way of High Value cleartnq of RBI which takes placeI

early morning. Hence, orily deals concluded for theI

previous day can be executed I under this. Again, RBI does

not carry the High Value cl~aring on Saturdays. Hence,• I

deal settled on Fridays can ontv be concluded on Mondays.

In case of primary investments, the deals can be

concluded only after the counter party gives a confirmed,

letter of allotment. Hence.] in such deals, there will be,

delays between date of execution on account of receipt of

the confirmed letter of allot Inent. In case of deals with

outstation counter parties, the securities have to be

brought in from the respect ve places, which wi" cause

delays of day or two. Further deals are also carried out on

future dates on the basis Oftexpected funds flow .Other

than these, deals are con luded on the immediately

available working day."

It was decided that -*ate Bank of India would give

para-wise comment in respect I of all cases wherever one lineI

Item No.8 - Exposure limits - Representation from IC.lllimited

• Existing guidelines of Central Board of Trustees, EPF+ exposure limits are

as under:I

"Present exposure of Central Board of Trustees, EIf on the issuer and

prudential exposure ceilings (in case of banks, RBI hr stipulated that the

total exposure on a single entity should not excee,. 5% of the paid-up

capital and reserves of the Bank). In case ofCBT, F these be fixed on

the basis of the net worth of the issuer." .

• After due deliberations on the presentation made by= Ltd., the Finance &.Investment Committee suggested in its 6ttd meeting, that ttable prudential norms

could be considered, for investment in ICICI Ltd., conldering the situation in

totality. I

• SBI was asked to recommend prudential norms and offer their views on the

following exposure limits as suggested by Mis ICICI Ltd initheir presentation along

with the relevant guidelines issued by SEBI & RBI. i

I

Regulators set prudential exposure limits based on t~is approach.I

Mutual Funds determine their exposure lim~ts as 15% of their fundo

size (SEBI guideline)

o Banks can invest up to 15% of their Tier J and Tier 2 Capital in

anyone entity (RBI guideline)I

• SBI has given its suggestions vide letter no. Invest/pMSCS/SM/337 dated

8.6.2001 as under: I

CBT being neither covered by guidelines appliCabl~ to mutual funds nor

banks, recognition of companies/bodies for investments ~ased on Net Worth as

practiced, is pragmatic. Diversification in different types ~f industries or counter-

parties are only applicable for the PSU sub-segment, all ~f which being in public

sector, net worth and profitability remains perhaps the onlyibenchmark, besides the

rating of the issuer. ICICl's suggestion to link the expostre to an issuer, to the

funds corpus, is somewhat perplexing, as, if this meth~d isladopted, a small issuer

with a NetWorth of Rs. 10 crores would be eligible fo~ the same quantum ofI

investment as a large issuer with a NetWorth ofRs. 1000 crores. JCJCl's suggestion

to link exposure limits to fund size appears to hive beet made with a view to

increasing the level of Fund's investments in Securities ~ssued by them, which

Item No.9 REVIEW OF PATTERN OF INVEST ENT FOR FUNDSBELONGING TO CENTRAL BORA OF TRUSTEES,EMPLOYEES'PROVIDENT FUND

The funds of the EPFOare required to be invested as per the pattern of

investment prescribed by the Government of India accordin to Para 52 of the EPF

Scheme 1952. While earlier the pattern did not perm t investment outside

Government Securities, with effect from 01.04.1993 with e introduction of the

interest being payable on monthly balance the pattern WjS liberalized and the

current pattern is as under :-. :I I1 \

I(i)(ij)

25% in Central Government Securities;15% in State Government Securities arfJ Central or StateGovernment Guaranteed Securities; I

400/0 in Public Sector Financial InstitutionS/Pu~licSector Companiesor Certificate of Deposits issued by a Public ~or Bank (and theInfrastructure Development Finance Company ~td.(IDFC); and/or20% to be invested in any of the above three: categories as decidedby the Board of Trustees.The Board of Trustees subject to their assessment of the risk/returnprospects, may invest up to 10% out of (iv) ebove, in private sectorbondS/securities which have an investment gra(Jerating from at leasttwo credit rating agencies. ! . ..r>

(iii)

(iv)

(v)

The objective of any investments should ideally 'ibe to maximize the. , .expected returns. Returns on a typical investment may consist of two components

I,

• YI(!Id - It measures the cash flows vis-a-vis ~ price at which thesecurity was acquired. I

• Capital gain/loss - This defines the appreci~tion/ depreciation inthe price of security after it is acquired. The investor can book aprofit or loss in case he decides to dispose of the security at anygiven point after it has been acquired. I

1

The extant guidelines for investments of funds ~Ionging to CBT EPFI

do not permit trading by way of sale /purchase of secunties, hence the second,

aspect of returns viz. the returns by way of sale/purc;hasf of securities is n?t

relevant in the immediate context.

Associated with the investment returns are th risks because any

investment decision is invariably a trade-of between the ·slcsand the returns.

Risksmay be defined as the chance that the actual outco from an investment

will differ from the expected outcome. Specificallyin case

in India which as of now are being invested only in the bt market securities

following three type of investment risksare their :

• CREDn- RISK - This refers to the risks that title issuer may defaultwith regard to timely payment of prindpal~and nterest.

• INTEREST RATE RISK - For an investorw . prefers to hold thesecurity till maturity, the change in .. before maturity isunimportant. :tFor an investor who-Wantsto trade in the . rity during its life, anincreasein interest rate will meana capital· while a fall in interestrate will result in capital gains. . .:

• REINVESTMENT RISK - The cash flows ~'eivedfrom a securityare usually reinvested. The reinvestment ra . will depend upon theinterest rate at the time of reinvestmentand tenor for which theamount is being reinvested hence, there is la possibility that thecoupon and reinvestment rate may differ. Thls·r"'riability is calledthereinvestment risk. !

There is a urgent need to review the pattern of in~ ment prescribed for

2.9 A major cause for concem on the retlenue rront is the near .

stagnation in States'. Tax-GDPtatio at round 5.4% th~ the 1980s .

and the 1990s. While borrowings of State Gotlernfe"ts hatle grown

sharply, a major portion of the borrowed funds a1 being diverted tobridging the retlenue gap, leatling tlery little funds forlintlestment in core

sectors. Revenue deficit accounted for 600/0 of the bross Fiscal Deficit!

(GFDJin 1999-2ODDas against only 28.3% in 199o..9~.As a result, the.rehas been a deceleration in the growth of the capita{ expenditure from

37% to 17% between 1980 and 1998.More imJKJTifntly, not only has

the share of plan 'expenditure to total expendilpre of the StateI

GOtlernment declined over successive plans, but the lallocations for the

social sectors hatle also suffered in the process. Plait expenditure hatle

Fallen from 27% of the total State·expenditure· in th~SixthPlan to onlyI

19% in the Ninth Plan. The share of states in otlera{lpian expenditure

has fallen from 52per cent in the Fifth Plan to 37pe, cent in the Ninth, I

The precarious financial position-ot State government finances is further •compoundedby the contingent liabilities of state governments in shape of

I

guaranteesextended-by various state governments to i~ers for raising funds

from the markets. In a meeting of the State finance secre~ries with the ReserveI

Bank of India, on November 8, 1997, the issue of government guarantees was

deliberatedupon at length and the view taken was that, inr interest of prudent

financialmanagementand ttle credibility of the guarantees i~ed, there is a need

for a policy on guarantees for each State government within certain nationali

parameters. The finance secretaries requested RBI to c~nstitute a Technical

Committee.toexaminethe issueof State government g~ra~tees in all its aspects.

The Committee consisted of finance secretaries from ~ujarat, Jammu and

Kashmir,Karnataka,Maharashtra,Meghalaya,Punjab\andU~r Pradesh. Ministry

of Finance,Government of India was also represented in ftte Committee. The

Chief General Manager(CGM) of Internal Debt Managemen,Cell of RBI was the

convenor. The Committee in its report detailed the conceptual issues, groundi

situationsand conclusionsarisingthere from. I

I

I '

A government providesa guarantee on behalf of an entity when it

does not have the requisite creditworthiness/track record to raise capital or!

contract a loan on its own and therefore, seeks protectiOn under the overall

umbrella of the government. Thus" contingent liabilities I are the contractual• I

obligations of the government to 'provide for any eventual~' of default by the. I '

borrower either on .principal amount borrowed or inte~ payment on such

amount or both. While guaranteesdo not form part of cJet>t, as conventionally

measured,these have, in the eventuality of default, the pot.,tial of exacerbating

an apparently sound fiscal system. Guaranteeand credit issuedthrough a state-I

guaranteed intermediary are particularly risky becausethey ~llow the government• i

to pursue unannounced policy decisionS, involve a ~m of management

incentives,and are difficult for governmentsto monitor and q:,ntrol.

According to Article 293 of the Constitution of India a State may not,

without the consent of the Government of India raise any! loan if there is still

outstanding any part ofa loan which has been made tp the State by theI

Government of India or by its predecessorGovernment, or in respect of whichguarantee has been given by the Government of India, or its predecessor

I

Government. Since all the States are still indebted to Government of India, the

constitutional position, therefore, is that prior consent of ~vernment of India is

necessary before State Government raises a loan. Such Iprior consent is not!necessarybefore the Stategovernmentgivesa guarantee. ,II

The rising deficits on revenueaccount have pre-empted financial resources

from investment projects. In such a situation, the guaranteesas a compensatory

measure for maintaining level of public investment assumes significance.I

According to the report submitted by the committee,'.in !absolute terms, the

outstanding guarantees increased from Rs.40,318 crore in: March 1992 to Rs.,

79,625 crore in September 1998 representing an annual dompound growth ofi

12.0 per cent. The growth in guarantees particularly Sitce 1995 have been

Isignificant, the annual growth rate between March 1995 and September 1998 was

13.1 whereas the growth in debt during the same peri was 7.5 per cent.

Guarantees accounted for 30 per cent of consolidated fund jof all States in March

1996 and 46 per cent of revenue receipts in March 199~. Till 1993-94, public

utilities were getting a separate share of market borroWi~ as also substantial

budgetary support for capital requirements. Since 1994-9;' separate allocation of

market borrowings for PSEshas been discontinued. The risi . deficits on revenue

account have pre-empted financial resources from inv ment projects. The

growing need for infrastructure and public investment has r.ut pressure on State

Governments to issue guarantee to mobUise resources throuqh guaranteed bonds.

The Committee had inter-alia recommended that t~ere should be some

ceiling on guarantees being given; guarantees should be given selectively and

according to transparent norms; guarantees should be ~inked to a dynamic

variable such as Net State Domestic Product or revenue receipts: guarantees and!

debt should be linked to the consolidated fund of state .i~lf so that guaranteesI

plus debt together do not exceed twice the receipts in the cpnsolidated fund and:

the ratio of incremental guarantees to incremental net merket borrowings should

be kept constant or brought down.

Following tables bring out the financial liabilities of the State Governments

in some detail.

Initially a civil suit against MIs. HMT Ltd for recove of two third of the

outstanding dues alongwith interest was filed in the court - City Civil Judge at

Bangalore. The defendant company's civil revision petiti01 before Hon'ble High

third amount alongwith over due interest was filed on 23.10. 000. Both the above

mentioned suits have been clubbed together and the next d te of hearing is fixed

on 27.8.2001. I

I

The Committee in its 6Ci" meeting was informed that t communication from

MIs HMT Ltd. was received stating that a turn-around plan Ifor the company has

been approved by the Central Government and subsequent to implementation of. I

the said plan they would be in position to repay the outstan~ing dues. It was also

informed that MIs HMT Ltd submitted following offers:

1. In case the payment is desired by cash bnly, we would like tooffer One Time Settlement in line wit~ the other financialinstitutions like UTI, lOBI, etc. where w,have paid principalplus 25% of the simple interest in 5 quarterly installments. Acopy of the OTS letter from UTI and lOBI are enclosedherewith.

Alternatively, we would like to offer S,cured Bonds in the"Bonds-A' op.tion for the principal am~nt, carrying rate ofintere~t of 12% per annum in lieu o~ the existing Bonds byswapping/replacement. In respect of Interest due as on date,we would like to issue "Bonds-B" whichlwill carry 6% rate ofinterest, as at present there is no interest on interest.

I

As. the two rates on Bonds A & B for ~rincipal and interestseparately are not favorable, we are Iwining to have oneconsolidated Bond for principal plus interest carrying rate ofinterest between 9-10%. i

L TR/PMSCS/SM/If 1" sDellr r. /No ..,Investment in 160/0 HMT Bonds 1999One Time Settlement Proposal by HMTW'

~ 1~.June, 1

I

The exact amount of your claims under the above bonds, to be conSi~ered in anysettlements with HfvlTwas under our examination. Accordingly, we claimed onHMT on 13.06.01, an amount of Rs 62,62,67,793.22 based on interest onoverdue amounts@18%p.a.,compoundedathalfyearlyrestsonc;upondatesfor the amount of unpaid interests and redeemed part of prin ipal, up to31.05.2001., plus the legal costs. This covered the total amount und r the issuei.e., the amount under the two suits. i

I

2. Hr.1T have now responded that the amount claimable Will be Rs46,40,75,342.00 , being the unpaid principal and interest up t~ the finalredemption date without any compounding or penal rates and simpl interest @16% from the final redemption up to ~1.05..91., only on the princi I amount.They have advised that the difference in our claimed amount. with theircomputed amount is due to the interest compounding, and the sftme is notadmissible. I

3. The Bonds carry simple half-yearly interests during their life time and interestwas to cease on final redemption date. However, there was no mention ofoverdue interest liabilities in cases of failures to service interest a~ prindpal.While this can not be a ground for HMT's not paying any overdue' in~rests, therate of interest applicable perhaps will be as adjudicated by a Court1Law or bymutual agreement.

4. In view of the above, please consider and advise us, what will be ~e basis foroverdue interest daim under a compromise settlement and thereb how muchamount you decide to be your claim on HMT, that can be used as a basis fordiscussions for the proposed One Time Settlement.
