II. DIVIDEND
In order to further consolidate your Company’s position, your Board proposes to employ the surplus resources to augment capital requirements,
and does not recommend a dividend for the financial year 2009-2010 (hereinafter referred to as ‘current financial year’).
III. OPERATIONS
The current financial year started with the general elections around the corner. The results, in May 2009, with the UPA getting a clear majority
were welcomed by the capital markets. This resulted in renewed appetite for Equity and the Sensex which closed at 9708 at the end of the
financial year 2008-09 (hereinafter referred to as ‘previous financial year’) started moving up to close at 17528 at the end of the current financial
year. Similarly, the benchmark Nifty which closed at 2523 at the end of the previous financial year closed at 5249 at the end of the current
financial year. The average daily volumes went up to Rs. 22,784 crores from Rs. 16,135 crores in the previous financial year for the Cash Segment
and to Rs. 72,938 crores from Rs. 45,687 crores in the previous financial year for Derivatives Segment. The year also saw a shift in the market
volumes with a skew towards derivatives volumes towards the end of the current financial year.
RETAIL SEGMENT
The year had begun with a cautious approach. With the change in the environment post the general elections, there was a need to relook at the
plan for the current financial year. Branches were opened on a selective basis and the focus to increase the Sub broker network continued. The
total outlets have gone up to 1113 from 783 at the end of the previous financial year. The number of registered sub brokers stood at 1312 for
NSE and 1105 for BSE. Customer acquisition has been stepped up. The number of customers added during the current financial year was around
66000. Most of the centralized functions of your Company have moved to a new state of the art office at Malad (E), in Mumbai. The premises
have capacity to take care of your Company’s growth and expansion plans over the medium term.
INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES
Kotak Institutional Equities (KIE), a division of Kotak Securities maintained its leading position in institutional segment of the broking business.
Institutional volumes gained momentum post the General elections with increased participation by Foreign Institutional Investors (“FIIs”) and
Domestic Institutional Investors (“DII”) alike. The division outperformed other syndicate members in marketing of several Indian equity offerings
(IPOs, FPOs & QIPs) to FIIs & DIIs During the year, KIE expanded its footprint and provided its clients with comprehensive execution services
including direct market access and algorithmic trading. KIE research continued to be recognized for its in-depth modeling, width of coverage and
investment insights, winning valuable votes from its clients.

PRIMARY MARKET
With the change in the capital market environment, corporates are back to raising equity capital through QIPs and Public Offerings. The
Government of India has also accessed the capital markets for disinvestment of its stake in some PSUs. Retail participation in the primary capital
markets is however left wanting. In the current financial year, your Company was syndicate/sub syndicate member in 44 Public Offer Issues,
including some PSU disinvestment and a Reverse Book Building for Buyback.
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT SERVICES

The events of previous financial year continued to have an impact on this line of business. Fresh inflows were left wanting with the retail
investors preferring to wait and watch. Some interest is seen returning in this asset class with a rise in valuations. The total equity Assets under
management as on 31st March, 2010 was around Rs. 2302 crores.
IV. AWARDS AND RECOGNITIONS

Your Company has received following awards during current financial year for its performance:
a. Voted as the Best Local Brokerage firm by Asiamoney Brokers Poll for 2009 (for the 4th year in a row). KIE was also adjudged as No. 2 in
Country Research, Sales Services and Sales Trading across domestic and international brokerages by Asiamoney.
b. Awarded Best Performing Equity Broker (National) by UTI MF – CNBC TV18 for 2009.
c. Awarded Best Broker in India by Finance Asia for 2009.
V. FUTURE OUTLOOK
Following the turmoil in global financial markets in the previous financial year, the current financial year was a year for the world to take steps
for a recovery and confidence building. These steps seem to have paid off for Corporate India with companies declaring good results. FII interest
in India is back resulting in the easing of the US dollar which had appreciated significantly. Inflation which had begun to rise is near its peak. On
the global front there are still doubts on the economic scene with news of inability to service/ repay sovereign debt by certain countries coming in
from time to time.
With a stable Government at the Centre, activity levels in the Indian capital markets have increased significantly and the benchmark Sensex and
Nifty have gained significantly crossing 18000 and 5300 respectively. Market volumes have also seen an increase during this period.
The retail segment has still some concern on direct Equity as an asset class. This is visible in day to day traded volumes on Stock Exchanges as well
as in the participation of public offerings in the primary markets. Full participation from this segment will result in enhanced business for your
Company and your Company is focused in this direction.
There are a host of changes in regulations being introduced by the Securities and Exchange Board of India with special emphasis on investor
service and protection. Your Company has always been focused on customer service and would be able to comply with these requirements.
Competition has intensified with margins coming under severe pressure. Your Company is taking all necessary steps to meet these challenges
among others to maintain its leadership position in the industry.

Schedule 20 – Notes to the Financial Statements
1. Significant Accounting Policies:
A. BASIS OF Accounting
The Financial Statements have been prepared on historical cost basis of accounting. The company adopts the accrual system of accounting
and the financial statements conform with the Accounting Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standard) Rules, 2006, the
generally accepted accounting principles prevailing in India and the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956.
The preparation of financial statements requires the Management to make estimates and assumptions considered in the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) as on the date of the financial statements and the reported income and expenses
during the reported period. Management believes that the estimates used in preparation of the financial statements are prudent and
reasonable. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
B. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognised when there is reasonable certainty of its ultimate realization/collection.
1. Placement and other fee based income are accounted for on the basis of the progress of the assignment.
2. Brokerage Income (net of service tax)

On fixed deposit is accounted on completion of the transaction.
On primary market subscription – mobilisation is accounted on allotment after intimation received by the Company.
On secondary market transaction is recognised on the date of the transaction.
3. Interest Income is accounted on accrual basis.
4. Incentive on primary market subscription – mobilisation is accounted on the basis of intimation received by the Company.
5. Depository Fees (net of service tax)

Transaction fees are recognised on completion of the transaction.
Account maintenance charges are recognised on time basis over the period of the contract.
6. (i) Portfolio management fees are accounted on accrual basis as follows:

(a) In case of fee based on fixed percentage of the corpus/fixed amount, income is accrued over the period of the agreement.
(b) In case of fee based on the returns of the portfolio, income is accounted on the termination of the portfolio agreement/on
each anniversary as per the agreement, whichever is earlier.
(c) In case of an upfront non-refundable fee, income is accounted in the year of receipt.
(ii) Funds received from Portfolio Management Services (PMS) Investors and corresponding Investments made on their behalf are not
forming part of these financial statements.
C. Debenture Redemption Reserve

In terms of Section 117C of the Companies Act, 1956, amounts equivalent to the principal value of the debentures and accrued interest
thereon is transferred to Debenture Redemption Reserve proportionately over the term of the debentures.
D. DISCOUNTED INSTRUMENTS
The liability is recognised at face value at the time of issuance of discounted instruments. The discount on the issue is amortised over the
tenure of the instrument.
E. Structured Liabilities
The Company has issued structured liabilities wherein the return on these liabilities is linked to non-interest benchmarks. Such structured
liabilities have an embedded derivative which is the non-interest related return component. The embedded derivative is separated from the
host contract and accounted separately (Refer accounting policy on derivates as per ‘J’ below).
The resultant debt component of such structured liabilities is recognised in the Balance Sheet under the head “Unsecured Loans” and is
measured at amortised cost using yield to maturity basis.
F. FIXED ASSETS AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

1. Fixed assets are stated at cost inclusive of incidental expenses less accumulated depreciation.
Schedules forming part of the Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Account (Contd.)
2. The Company adopts the Straight Line Method of depreciation so as to write off 100% of the cost of the assets at rates equal to or
higher than those prescribed under Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956 based on the Management’s estimate of the useful lives
of all the assets. Estimated useful lives over which assets are depreciated are as follows:
Leasehold Improvements Over the period of lease subject to a maximum of 6 years
Premises 58 years
Furniture and Fixtures 6 years
Computers 3 years
Office Equipments 5 years
Motor Vehicles 4 years
Software 3 years
3. Fixed assets costing less than Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase/put to use.
G. INVESTMENTS
Investments are classified into long term investments and current investments. Investments which are intended to be held for more than one
year are classified as long term investments and investments which are intended to be held for less than one year are classified as current
investments. Long term investments are accounted at cost and any decline in the carrying value other than temporary in nature is provided
for. Current investments are valued at cost or market/fair value, whichever is lower. In case of investments in units of a mutual fund, the net
asset value of units is considered as the market/fair value.
H. STOCK IN TRADE
Securities acquired with the intention to trade are classified as stock-in-trade. Stock-in -trade is valued at cost, calculated by applying the
weighted average cost method, or fair value whichever is lower.
I. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences
arising on settlement of revenue transactions are recognized in the Profit and Loss account. Monetary assets and liabilities contracted in
foreign currencies are restated at the rate of exchange ruling at the Balance Sheet date. Exchange differences arising on settlement of the
transaction and on account of restatement of assets and liabilities are dealt with in the Profit and Loss Account.
The transactions of the foreign operations that is integral to the operations of the company are translated at average foreign exchange rate
for the month.
J. DERIVATIVES
1. Outstanding derivative contracts, including embedded derivatives, are measured at fair value as at each Balance Sheet date. Fair value
of derivatives is determined using quoted market prices in an actively traded market, for the instrument, wherever available, as the best
evidence of fair value. In the absence of quoted market prices in an actively traded market, a valuation technique is used to determine
the fair value. In most cases the valuation techniques use as input parameters, observable market data in order to ensure reliability of
the fair value measure.
The marked to market on derivative contracts is determined on a portfolio basis with net unrealized losses being recognised in the
Profit and Loss Account. Net unrealized gains are not recognised in the Profit and Loss Account on grounds of prudence as enunciated
in Accounting Standard – 1, Disclosure of Accounting Policies.
2. (a) “Initial Margin – Equity Derivative Instrument” representing the initial margin paid and/or additional margin paid over and above
the initial margin, for entering into contracts for equity index/stock futures and equity index/stock options, which are released on
final settlement/squaring – up of the underlying contracts, are disclosed under Loans and Advances. “Margin Deposits – Equity
Derivative Instrument” representing the deposit paid in respect of mark to market margin is disclosed under Loans and Advances.
(b) “Equity Index/Stock Option Premium Account” represents the premium paid or received for buying or selling the options,
respectively.
(c) On final settlement or squaring up of contracts for equity index/stock futures, the realised profit or loss after adjusting the
unrealized loss already accounted, if any, is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account and shown as Profit/(Loss) on Trading in
Options/Futures.
On settlement or squaring up of equity index/stock options before expiry, the premium prevailing in “Equity Index/Stock Option
Premium Account” on that date is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account.
When more than one contract in respect of the relevant series of equity index/stock futures or equity index/stock options contract to
which the squared-up contract pertains is outstanding at the time of the squaring-up of the contract, the contract price of the contract
so squared-up is determined using the weighted average cost method for calculating the profit/loss on squaring-up.
K. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Long Term Employee Benefits
(a) Defined Contribution Plan

Contribution as required by the Statute made to the Government Provident Fund is debited to the Profit and Loss Account.
(b) Defined Benefit Plan

The company accounts for the liability for future gratuity benefits based on an actuarial valuation conducted by an independent
actuary. The gratuity obligation is wholly unfunded. The net present value of the company’s obligation towards the same is actuarially
determined based on the projected unit credit method as at the Balance Sheet date. Actuarial gains/losses are immediately recognised
in the profit and loss account and are not deferred.
(c) Other Long-term Employee Benefit

The company accrues the liability for compensated absences based on the actuarial valuation as at the balance sheet date conducted

as at the Balance Sheet date.
Short Term Employee Benefits

Other employee benefits
The undiscounted amount of employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees is recognised
during the period when the employee renders the service. These benefits include performance incentives.
L. TAXES ON INCOME
The Income Tax expense comprises Current tax and Deferred tax. Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid in respect of
taxable income for the year in accordance with the Income tax Act, 1961.
Deferred tax adjustments comprises of changes in the deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised
for the future tax consequences of timing differences being the difference between the taxable income and the accounting income that
originate in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods. Deferred tax assets arising mainly on account of carry
forward losses and unabsorbed depreciation under tax laws are recognised only if there is virtual certainty of its realisation, supported by
convincing evidence. Deferred tax assets on account of other timing differences are recognised only to the extent that there is reasonable
certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted before the balance sheet date.
Changes in deferred tax assets/liabilities on account of changes in enacted tax rates are given effect to in the Profit and Loss Account in
the period of the change. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date. The company writes-down
the carrying amount of a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that
sufficient future taxable income will be available against which deferred tax asset can be realized.
M. IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based on internal/external
factors.
N. PROVISIONS, CONTINGENT LIABILITIES & CONTINGENT ASSETS

A provision is recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be
required to settle the obligation and in respect of which reliable estimate can be made. Provision is not discounted to its present value and is
determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the year end date. These are reviewed at each year end date and
adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Contingent liabilities are not recognized but are disclosed in the notes. Contingent assets are
neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements.
O. OPERATING LEASE
Leases where the lessor effectively retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the leased term, are classified as operating
leases. Operating lease payments/receipts are recognised as an expense/income in the Profit and Loss account on a straight-line basis over
the lease term.
