The company started as a VSF manufacturer and diversified into Chemicals (Caustic-Soda), Caustic Soda is one of

the key inputs required for manufacturing of viscose. The focus of the company has been to expand its Viscose and

Chemicals business through organic and inorganic route.

Grasim forayed into cement business in 1983-85. The company took a leapfrog step and acquired the L&T cement

capacity in 2004 to participate in the infrastructure driven growth of the Indian economy. The cement business of

Grasim was demerged subsequently and consolidated into its subsidiary, UltraTech to create a pure play cement

company.

Material Litigations against Issuer

1. Writ CWJC 9910038/2000 filed against Jharkhand State Electricity Board – Rehla - Fuel Surcharge Matter -

The rates notified by BSEB with respect to fuel surcharge has been disputed on the ground of its illegality so

far as the calculation of fuel surcharge is concerned. Fuel surcharge bill raised by BSEB during the period

1.4.1996 to 31.3.2001 and was disputed by the Company on the ground of charging of increased rates and

wrong inclusion of certain components in the formula of the rate. On 26.06.2000, Court opined that the formula

on the basis of which fuel surcharge is computed is not challengeable but inclusion of certain components in

the said formula is not in accordance with law. Writ filed in the High Court Jharkand to Set aside the bill dt.

11.09.2000 & notification. Total demand is of Rs. 62.15 cr.

2. Kharach - SCA 505/2019 filed in the High Court - Ahmedabad - In 2008 Mr. Bholasingh filed a criminal

complaint against Mr. Anil Khosla. During the pendency of the Criminal Complaint, he realized that his

complaint might not sustain, in 2014, he filed a Civil Suit for recovery of damages aggregating to 36.15 Crores

alongwith a pauper application to allow him to sue as an indigent person. He was unable to pay the court fees

and therefore prayed to the court that he shall pay the same after he recovers his dues from BC. He had prayed

for recovery of dues from 2003 and release of his machinery and costs with interest of his confiscated

machinery. This pauper application was rejected by the court. After rejection of his pauper application, he

appealed before the Principle District Judge, Vadodara. The appeal before the Principal District Judge also got

rejected. Hence he filed a Special Civil Application No. 505/2019.

3. IGF - 12573/2010/MISB High Court Lucknow - UPSIDC is asking to pay maintenance charges on land allotted

in 1983. Consequent to merger of IGFL in ABNL Grasim has to enter into fresh lease agreement with UPSIDC.

is Rs. 3.65 cr (From Sept 07 to June 2009) plus interest @ 13% PA from October 09 onwards and Rs. 0.18 cr

PM towards maintenance charges from July’09.

4. Renukoot- NGT matter - Upon a complaint filed by an individual, a Committee constituted by NGT

recommended Grasim to shift mercury based sludge generated historically in our acquired Kanoria’s plant

stored in Secured Land Fill (SLF)] to TSDF. Based on this Grasim filed civil appeal in Supreme court and

obtained stay on the NGT proceedings. On 5th Nov 2019 NGT matter differed as per SC order. Meanwhile,

Committee has suggested to impose Rs 155 crores as interim compensation to NGT, hearing of same is deferred.

5. After closure of the industrial units at Mavoor w.e.f. 30.06.2001, the State of Kerala, especially Forest

Department, started to raise huge claims against the Company on various heads, amounting to Rs 40 Crs. To

prevent this, after discussions with our Lawyers M/s. Menon & Pai and Corporate Legal Cell, we framed a huge

7. In Direct tax litigations involving Grasim in relation to various provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961, the

demand outstanding in the following cases exceeds Rs. 50 cr as on 31st December, 2019:

a. Vide an Order dated 14th March 2019, issued by the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax (DCIT), a

demand of Rs. 5,872.13 Crore has been raised on Grasim on account of Dividend Distribution Tax

(including interest). The DCIT, interalia, held that as the demerger of the demerged undertaking (as defined

in the Composite Scheme of Arrangement between Aditya Birla Nuvo Limited and Grasim Industries

Limited and Aditya Birla Financial Services Limited (now known as ABCL) and their respective

shareholders and creditors) is not in compliance with Section 2(19AA) of the Act, the value of shares

allotted by ABCL to the shareholders of Grasim, in consideration of the transfer and vesting of the

Demerged Undertaking into ABCL, amounted to Dividend within the meaning of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Grasim is of the view that the aforesaid Order is not tenable in law and accordingly challenged the order by

filing an appeal with the CIT(A) and the appeal is presently pending before the CIT(A). The next hearing is

fixed on 14th February, 2020. On 03rd December, 2019, Grasim filed writ petition for stay of demand before

before the High Court. The next hearing is fixed on 14th February, 2020.
